A connector comprising a carriage, an adjustment element, and a base configured to be rigidly attached to a drawer, the carriage is slidably attached to the base, and movement of the adjustment element causes the carriage to slide relative to the base. Also, such a connector further comprising: an engagement element configured to releasably engage a drawer movement guide assembly and attached to the carriage, and/or a wedge element linearly slidable relative to the carriage and configured to cause a change in a spacing between a drawer movement guide assembly and a drawer. Also, a connector comprising an engagement element that is separate from and pivotally attached to a connector assembly, that is configured to be rigidly attached to a drawer, and that is configured to releasably engage a drawer movement guide assembly. Also, systems comprising a connector together with a drawer, a cabinet and/or a drawer guide.

Connectors, and systems including connectors in addition to drawers, cabinets and/or drawer movement guide assemblies

A device is provided for adjusting a closing position of a drawer. The device is configured to be attached to a carcass rail such that the closing position of the drawer can be set with respect to a direction of movement of the drawer provided with the rail guide. The device includes a rotatable adjusting element and a stop. When the device is mounted on the furniture, the stop can be brought into different adjustment positions on the device by turning the adjusting element, and the stop predefines the closing position of the drawer. The adjusting element and a sliding element of the device, coupled to the adjusting element, are configured that the sliding element is linearly adjustable by a turning movement of the adjusting element, and the stop is provided on the sliding element.

A device for connecting a movable push element of a piece of furniture or a household appliance to a guide rail. According to the present invention, the device comprises a locking arm with a locking member, wherein in the mounted condition of the device the locking member is designed to be coupled with a locking element, wherein the elongated locking arm is connected by two spaced-apart elastic attachment members to the remainder of the device, which attachment members engage with the locking arm transversely to a longitudinal extension of the locking arm, so that the locking arm is movable in the region of the locking member in a direction transverse to the longitudinal extension of the locking arm and in the direction of the attachment members.

A device for connecting a movable sliding element to a guide rail of a guide system of an item of furniture having adjustment means comprising latching means, an operating element, and a height adjustment element. The latching means have latching teeth and a latching member. The latching teeth are disposed along a shell face. The latching member is connected to the operating element and the latching member latches with the latching teeth. The height adjustment element is configured in the manner of a disk and the height adjustment element is present so as to be pivotable. The operating element is connected to the height adjustment element. The device in the disposed state connects the sliding element to the guide rail in such a manner that a positional modification of the height adjustment element causes a positional modification of the sliding element relative to the guide system.

Connection device and item of furniture or domestic appliance

A guide rail of a guidance system for a push element is provided. The guide rail is formed as a hollow profile enclosed by wall sections of the guide rail. The wall sections comprise a horizontal wall section and two side wall sections. The horizontal wall sections extend parallel and perpendicular to a lengthwise extension of the guide rail, and the side wall section extends parallel and perpendicular to the lengthwise extension of the guide rail. The side wall sections are oriented at an angle to the horizontal wall sections. The horizontal wall sections and the two side wall sections, in a cross section perpendicular to a lengthwise extension of the guide rail, form at least for a portion the three side lines of a triangle, wherein the horizontal wall section defines a distal wall of the hollow profile.

Snap-on coupling

A setting device for a latching arrangement for setting a movable furniture part which is received in a furniture body, the setting device comprising a receptacle, a spring member and an operating lever, it being possible for the setting device to be mounted on a holding member of the latching arrangement such that it can be pivoted via the receptacle, and a latching element being configured on the spring member. The invention is distinguished by the fact that the shape of the spring member, and therefore the position of the latching element, can be varied by means of the operating lever, without interaction with a further element.
