A furniture fitting for moving a movable furniture part relative to a furniture carcass includes a housing to be connected to the furniture carcass, and an actuating mechanism arranged or can be arranged at least in part within the housing. The actuating mechanism can be connected to the movable furniture part, and the actuating mechanism can swivel about at least one rotation axis. The actuating mechanism and/or at least one inner side of the housing facing the actuating mechanism has a local elevation, by which, at least in a relative position of the actuating mechanism to the housing, a play between the actuating mechanism and the inner side of the housing facing the actuating mechanism is at least halved in comparison to a region surrounding the local elevation.

Furniture fitting

A furniture drive for moving a furniture part movably-supported relative to a furniture carcass includes a carrier configured to be fixed within or to a sidewall of the furniture carcass, and the carrier has a front face and a longitudinal side protruding substantially at a right angle from the front face. A pivotally supported actuating arm is provided for moving the movable furniture part, and fastening device can fasten a furniture panel of the furniture carcass. The furniture panel extends substantially horizontally in a mounted position, and a fastening device includes a movably-supported locking element for fastening the furniture panel. The locking element is configured to be accessible for a manual or for a tool-assisted actuation from a longitudinal side of the carrier, and the longitudinal side of the carrier faces towards the outside.

Furniture drive

A furniture fitting includes at least one rotatably mounted screw for fixing the furniture fitting to a furniture part. The furniture fitting further includes at least one drive element separate from the screw, and the drive element is movement-coupled to the screw and has a tool receiving device. The at least one screw is configured to be driven by rotating the tool receiving device with the aid of a tool.

An actuating arm drive for a pivotably mounted actuating arm, in particular for driving a flap of a piece of furniture, includes a plurality of articulatedly interconnected levers. A first lever and a second lever of the actuating arm drive are arranged parallel to one another with a lateral spacing, and the levers each have two axial bores with a first standard spacing, through each of which bores an axial pin projects. A third lever has receptacles for the axial pins with a second standard spacing, and the second standard spacing is different than the first standard spacing. The axial pins each project through the axial bores of the first and second lever and are at least partially received in the receptacles of the third lever.

Actuating arm drive

An actuating arm drive for a pivotably mounted actuating arm includes a pivotably mounted main lever, a force accumulator for exerting a force for supporting the opening and/or closing movement of the actuating arm drive on the main lever at a force introduction point, and a setting device for setting the force introduction point on the main lever. The force is introduced to the main lever at the force introduction point via a force introduction element which is loaded by the force accumulator via levers, and the setting device is designed to move the force introduction element along a bearing contour formed on the main lever. In each pivoting position of the main lever between the open and closed position of the actuating arm drive, and in each setting of the setting device, the loaded force introduction element is forced along the bearing contour in the same direction.

An actuating drive for moving a flap includes a housing, an actuating arm pivotably mounted on or in the housing for the moving flap, a spring apparatus for applying force to the actuating arm, a transmission mechanism for transmitting a force of the spring apparatus onto the actuating arm, an adjusting apparatus by which a lever geometry of the transmission mechanism and/or the force of the spring apparatus, which force acts on the actuating arm, can be variably adjusted, and a damping apparatus by which a movement of the actuating arm can be damped by a damping power in the event of a damping stroke. The adjusting apparatus is coupled to the damping apparatus by a coupling apparatus, and the position of the damping apparatus relative to the housing, the damping stroke of the damping apparatus, and/or the damping power of the damping apparatus can be variably adjusted.
