Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Möbelantrieb zum Bewegen eines relativ zu einem Möbelkorpus bewegbar gelagerten Möbelteiles, umfassend:

  • ein Gehäuse mit einer am Möbelkorpus zu befestigenden ersten Gehäusewand und mit einer von der ersten Gehäusewand zumindest bereichsweise beabstandeten zweiten Gehäusewand,
  • wobei wenigstens die erste Gehäusewand wenigstens eine Führungsvorrichtung zur Führung eines Befestigungsmittels aufweist.
The present invention relates to a furniture drive for moving a furniture part that is movably mounted relative to a furniture body, comprising:
  • a housing with a first housing wall to be attached to the furniture body and with a second housing wall that is at least partially spaced from the first housing wall,
  • wherein at least the first housing wall has at least one guide device for guiding a fastener.

Im Weiteren betrifft die Erfindung ein Möbel mit einem Möbelkorpus, einem relativ zum Möbelkorpus bewegbar gelagerten Möbelteil und mit einem Möbelantrieb der zu beschreibenden Art.The invention further relates to a piece of furniture with a furniture body, a furniture part that is movably mounted relative to the furniture body and with a furniture drive of the type to be described.

In der WO 2017/059471 A1 ist in den Fig. 5a, 5b ein Möbelbeschlag in Form eines Möbelantriebes zum Bewegen von Möbelklappen gezeigt, wobei der Möbelbeschlag durch eine Befestigungsvorrichtung an einem Möbelkorpus montierbar ist. Die Befestigungsvorrichtung weist zwei Befestigungselemente auf, welche in einer gemeinsamen zylindrischen Bohrung einsteckbar und durch Drehung eines Arretierelementes in eine Spreizstellung bewegbar sind, sodass die Befestigungselemente in der Spreizstellung innerhalb der Bohrung durch Reibschluss gehalten sind.In the WO 2017/059471 A1 is in the Fig. 5a, 5b a furniture fitting in the form of a furniture drive for moving furniture flaps is shown, the furniture fitting being mountable to a furniture body by a fastening device. The fastening device has two fastening elements, which can be inserted into a common cylindrical bore and can be moved into an expanded position by rotating a locking element, so that the fastening elements are held in the expanded position within the bore by friction.

In der DE 20 2016 101 285 U1 ist ein Möbelantrieb zum Bewegen von Möbelklappen offenbart, wobei der Möbelantrieb eine Ausnehmung zur Aufnahme eines Zapfens aufweist. In einem ersten Montageschritt wird der Zapfen an einem Möbelkorpus vormontiert, in einem nachfolgenden Montageschritt wird der Möbelantrieb durch Einführen des vormontierten Zapfens in die Ausnehmung mit dem Zapfen verriegelt, wodurch der Möbelantrieb am Möbelkorpus zu befestigen ist.In the DE 20 2016 101 285 U1 a furniture drive for moving furniture flaps is disclosed, the furniture drive having a recess for receiving a pin. In a first assembly step, the pin is pre-assembled on a furniture body. In a subsequent assembly step, the furniture drive is locked with the pin by inserting the pre-assembled pin into the recess, whereby the furniture drive can be attached to the furniture body.

In der DE 10 2007 049 143 A1 ist ein Möbelbeschlag zur Montage an einer Spanplatte offenbart, wobei in einem zur Spanplatte hin verbreiterten Mündungsraum des Möbelbeschlages ein Stützkörper angeordnet ist. Der Stützkörper ist zur Aufnahme einer Schraube ausgebildet und liegt im Montagezustand an der Spanplatte an, sodass im Mündungsraum die Gefahr eines Ausreißens der Schraube und ein Herausbrechen des Holzmaterials aus der Spanplatte reduziert wird.In the DE 10 2007 049 143 A1 a furniture fitting for mounting on a chipboard is disclosed, with a support body being arranged in a mouth space of the furniture fitting that is widened towards the chipboard. The support body is designed to hold a screw and lies against the chipboard in the assembled state, so that the risk of the screw tearing out and the wood material breaking out of the chipboard in the mouth space is reduced.

Das Gehäuse solcher Möbelantriebe wird üblicherweise an einem Möbelkorpus durch Befestigungsmittel (beispielsweise durch Schrauben) montiert. Hierfür weist das Gehäuse des Möbelantriebes eine Führungsvorrichtung (beispielsweise ein Loch oder einen zylindrischen Abschnitt) zur Führung und/oder Aufnahme des Befestigungsmittels auf. Bei der Verschraubung des Gehäuses am Möbelkorpus und/oder bei Bewegen von schweren Möbelteilen kann es vorkommen, dass sich das Gehäuse durch die auftretenden Kräfte verformt, verwindet oder absenkt. Dabei findet zwischen den beiden Gehäusewänden eine unerwünschte Relativbewegung statt, wodurch die Gelenkachsen des Möbelantriebes relativ zueinander versetzt und die Reibungskräfte massiv erhöht werden. Dies kann in manchen Fällen schließlich dazu führen, dass das bewegbare Möbelteil durch die Hemmungen des Möbelantriebes nicht oder nur mehr schwergängig zu betätigen ist.The housing of such furniture drives is usually mounted on a furniture body using fasteners (for example screws). For this purpose, the housing of the furniture drive has a guide device (for example a hole or a cylindrical section) for guiding and/or receiving the fastening means. When screwing the housing to the furniture body and/or moving heavy furniture parts, it can happen that the housing is deformed, twisted or lowered due to the forces that occur. An undesirable relative movement takes place between the two housing walls, as a result of which the joint axes of the furniture drive are offset relative to one another and the frictional forces are massively increased. In some cases, this can ultimately lead to the movable furniture part being difficult or impossible to operate due to the inhibition of the furniture drive.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, einen Möbelantrieb der eingangs erwähnten Gattung unter Vermeidung der oben diskutierten Nachteile anzugeben.The object of the present invention is to provide a furniture drive of the type mentioned at the beginning while avoiding the disadvantages discussed above.

Dies wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Patentansprüchen angegeben.This is achieved according to the invention by the features of patent claim 1. Further embodiments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.

Fig. 1a zeigt eine perspektivische Darstellung eines Möbels 1, wobei ein bewegbares Möbelteil 3 durch einen Möbelantrieb 4 um eine horizontal verlaufende Drehachse relativ zu einem Möbelkorpus 2 schwenkbar gelagert ist. Durch den Möbelantrieb 4 ist das bewegbare Möbelteil 3 ausgehend von einer vertikalen Schließstellung in eine relativ zum Möbelkorpus 2 angehobene Lage (und in die umgekehrte Richtung) bewegbar. Der Möbelantrieb 4 weist ein am Möbelkorpus 2 zu befestigendes Gehäuse 5 mit einer ersten Gehäusewand 5a und zumindest einen relativ zum Gehäuse 5 schwenkbar gelagerten Stellarm 6 zum Bewegen des bewegbaren Möbelteiles 3 auf. Zur Kraftbeaufschlagung des Stellarmes 6 ist eine Federvorrichtung 7 vorgesehen, welche die Gewichtskraft des Möbelteiles 3 zumindest teilweise kompensiert und die Öffnungsbewegung des bewegbaren Möbelteiles 3 für einen Benutzer unterstützt wird. Der Stellarm 6 ist durch eine Rastvorrichtung 23 (Fig. 1b) mit einem am bewegbaren Möbelteil 3 zu befestigenden Beschlagteil 22 lösbar verrastbar. Fig. 1a shows a perspective view of a piece of furniture 1, wherein a movable furniture part 3 is pivotally mounted relative to a furniture body 2 by a furniture drive 4 about a horizontal axis of rotation. By means of the furniture drive 4, the movable furniture part 3 can be moved from a vertical closed position into a position that is raised relative to the furniture body 2 (and in the opposite direction). The furniture drive 4 has a housing 5 to be attached to the furniture body 2 with a first housing wall 5a and at least one actuating arm 6 which is pivotally mounted relative to the housing 5 for moving the movable furniture part 3. To apply force to the actuating arm 6, a spring device 7 is provided, which at least partially compensates for the weight of the furniture part 3 and supports the opening movement of the movable furniture part 3 for a user. The actuating arm 6 is secured by a locking device 23 ( Fig. 1b ) can be releasably locked with a fitting part 22 to be attached to the movable furniture part 3.

Fig.1b zeigt den Möbelantrieb 4 gemäß einem möglichen Ausführungsbeispiel. An der ersten Gehäusewand 5a ist die Federvorrichtung 7 (beispielsweise zumindest eine als Schraubenfeder ausgebildete Druckfeder) gelagert, welche sich an einer ortsfesten Gelenkachse A abstützt und gegen die Gelenkachse B drückt. Die Gelenkachse B ist an einem ersten Hebelende eines zweiarmigen Umlenkhebels 9 gelagert, welcher um die Gelenkachse C drehbar gelagert ist. Das zweite Hebelende des Umlenkhebels 9 steht über die Gelenkachse D mit einem Schubhebel 10 in Verbindung, welcher über einen Bolzen 11 mit einem um eine Drehachse E drehbaren Schwenkhebel 12 gelenkig verbunden ist. Durch Betätigung einer Einstellvorrichtung 13 ist der Abstand des Bolzens 11 entlang einer Führung des Schwenkhebels 12 relativ zur Gelenkachse E und damit der wirksame Hebelarm zwischen dem Bolzen 11 und der Gelenkachse E veränderbar, sodass ein auf den Stellarm 6 ausgeübtes Drehmoment der Federvorrichtung 7 entsprechend dem jeweiligen Gewicht des bewegbaren Möbelteiles 3 einstellbar ist. Der Schwenkhebel 12 ist über die Gelenkachsen F, G mit einem ersten Hebel 8 und einem zweiten Hebel 14 gelenkig verbunden, wobei der erste Hebel 8 und der zweite Hebel 14 über die Gelenkachsen H, I mit dem Stellarm 6 gelenkig verbunden sind. Fig.1b shows the furniture drive 4 according to a possible exemplary embodiment. The spring device 7 (for example at least one compression spring designed as a helical spring) is mounted on the first housing wall 5a, which is supported on a stationary joint axis A and presses against the joint axis B. The joint axis B is mounted on a first lever end of a two-armed deflection lever 9, which is rotatably mounted about the joint axis C. The second lever end of the deflection lever 9 is connected via the joint axis D to a thrust lever 10, which is articulated via a bolt 11 to a pivot lever 12 that can be rotated about an axis of rotation E. By actuating an adjusting device 13, the distance of the bolt 11 along a guide of the pivoting lever 12 relative to the joint axis E and thus the effective lever arm between the bolt 11 and the joint axis E can be changed, so that a torque of the spring device 7 exerted on the actuating arm 6 corresponds to the respective Weight of the movable furniture part 3 is adjustable. The pivoting lever 12 is articulated via the joint axes F, G to a first lever 8 and a second lever 14, the first lever 8 and the second lever 14 being articulated to the actuating arm 6 via the joint axes H, I.

Fig. 2 zeigt den Möbelantrieb 4 in einer perspektivischen Ansicht. Das Gehäuse 5 weist eine erste Gehäusewand 5a zur Anlage am Möbelkorpus 2 und eine zweite Gehäusewand 5b auf, wobei die erste Gehäusewand 5a und die zweite Gehäusewand 5b zumindest bereichsweise voneinander beabstandet sind. Durch erste und zweite Befestigungsmittel 16a und 16b, beispielsweise in Form von Schrauben, ist die erste Gehäusewand 5a am Möbelkorpus 2 zu befestigen, wobei die zweite Gehäusewand 5b über zumindest einen oder mehrere Stützkörper 21a, 21b (Fig. 3) an der ersten Gehäusewand 5a gehalten ist. Die Gehäusewände 5a, 5b können - abgesehen von spiegelbildlich ausgebildeten Komponenten - baugleich ausgeführt sein, sodass die hier vorgebrachten Ausführungen zur ersten Gehäusewand 5a jeweils auch für die zweite Gehäusewand 5b (und umgekehrt) gelten. Ein derartiger symmetrischer Aufbau des Möbelantriebes 4 hat den Vorteil, dass der Möbelantrieb 4 neben einer einfachen Herstellung auch wahlweise an einer linken oder an einer rechten Seitenwand eines Möbelkorpus 2 zu befestigen ist. Die Gehäusewände 5a, 5b weisen jeweils mehrere voneinander beabstandete Vorsprünge 15a-15h zur Anlage am Möbelkorpus 2 auf, sodass also ein Großteil der Gehäusewände 5a, 5b im Montagezustand des Möbelantriebes 4 vom Möbelkorpus 2 beabstandet ist. Fig. 2 shows the furniture drive 4 in a perspective view. The housing 5 has a first housing wall 5a for contact with the furniture body 2 and a second housing wall 5b, the first housing wall 5a and the second housing wall 5b being at least partially spaced apart from one another. The first housing wall 5a is to be fastened to the furniture body 2 by first and second fastening means 16a and 16b, for example in the form of screws, with the second housing wall 5b having at least one or more supporting bodies 21a, 21b ( Fig. 3 ) is held on the first housing wall 5a. The housing walls 5a, 5b can - apart from mirror-inverted components - be constructed identically, so that the statements made here regarding the first housing wall 5a also apply to the second housing wall 5b (and vice versa). Such a symmetrical structure of the furniture drive 4 has the advantage that, in addition to being simple to manufacture, the furniture drive 4 can also be attached either to a left or a right side wall of a furniture body 2. The housing walls 5a, 5b each have a plurality of spaced-apart projections 15a-15h System on the furniture body 2, so that a large part of the housing walls 5a, 5b is spaced from the furniture body 2 in the assembled state of the furniture drive 4.

Erkennbar sind, vorzugsweise fensterförmige, Stützränder 17a und 17b, welche von den Gehäusewänden 5a, 5b vorstehen und welche in Montagelage jeweils die Befestigungsmittel 16a, 16b zumindest bereichsweise umgeben. Diese Stützränder 17a und 17b sind jeweils am Möbelkorpus 2 anlegbar, sodass das Gehäuse 5 im Montagezustand, vorzugsweise ausschließlich, über die Vorsprünge 15a-15h und über die Stützränder 17a, 17b mit dem Möbelkorpus 2 in Verbindung steht. Innerhalb der Stützränder 17a, 17b sind Befestigungsstellen 18 von Stützkörpern 21a, 21b (Fig. 3) angeordnet, welche mit den Gehäusewänden 5a, 5b fest verbunden - vorzugsweise verschweißt, vernietet oder vertaumelt - sind. Die Vorsprünge 15a-15h und/oder die Stützränder 17a, 17b können als Prägungen ausgebildet sein.Preferably window-shaped support edges 17a and 17b can be seen, which protrude from the housing walls 5a, 5b and which, in the assembled position, surround the fastening means 16a, 16b at least in some areas. These supporting edges 17a and 17b can each be placed on the furniture body 2, so that the housing 5 in the assembled state is connected to the furniture body 2, preferably exclusively, via the projections 15a-15h and via the supporting edges 17a, 17b. Within the supporting edges 17a, 17b are fastening points 18 of supporting bodies 21a, 21b ( Fig. 3 ) arranged, which are firmly connected to the housing walls 5a, 5b - preferably welded, riveted or tumbled. The projections 15a-15h and/or the supporting edges 17a, 17b can be embossed.

Fig. 3 zeigt das Gehäuse 5 in einer Explosionsdarstellung. Die beiden Gehäusewände 5a, 5b sind im Wesentlichen plattenförmig ausgebildet und können baulich gleich aufgebaut sein. Zu erkennen sind die Vorsprünge 15a-15h und die Stützränder 17a, 17b, durch welche das Gehäuse 5 im Montagezustand am Möbelkorpus 2 abstützbar ist. Die Gehäusewände 5a, 5b weisen jeweils zumindest eine Führungsvorrichtung 19a, 19b zur Führung eines Befestigungsmittels 16a, 16b (Fig. 2) auf, wobei wenigstens ein Stützkörper 21a, 21b von den Führungsvorrichtungen 19a, 19b gesondert ausgebildet ist. Die Stützkörper 21a, 21b sind in Montagelage jeweils mit den plattenförmigen Gehäusewänden 5a, 5b verbunden und umgeben zumindest bereichsweise die Führungsvorrichtungen 19a, 19b, sodass eine Bewegung der beiden Gehäusewände 5a, 5b zueinander verhindert oder gehemmt ist. Im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel sind zwei Stützkörper 21a, 21b vorgesehen, welcher in einer Längsrichtung des Gehäuses 5 voneinander beabstandet sind. Die Stützkörper 21a, 21b sind dabei als V-förmige Profilstücke ausgebildet, wobei die Befestigungsstellen 18 der Stützkörper 21a, 21b in Montagelage in korrespondierenden Ausnehmungen 18a der Gehäusewände 5a, 5b eingreifen. Fig. 4a zeigt die erste Gehäusewand 5a mit den Stützkörpern 21a, 21b zur Stabilisierung der zweiten Gehäusewand 5b. Die Stützkörper 21a, 21b können jeweils zwei miteinander verbundene Schenkel 20a, 20b aufweisen, welche einen spitzen Winkel zueinander einschließen. Die Stützkörper 21a, 21b weisen jeweils auf den zu den Gehäusewänden 5a, 5b zugewandten Seiten zumindest eine Befestigungsstelle 18 auf, welche jeweils in die Ausnehmungen 18a (Fig. 3) der Gehäusewände 5a, 5b eingreifen. In der gezeigten Figur sind der erste Stützkörper 21a und der zweite Stützkörper 21b um 180° versetzt zueinander angeordnet, wodurch die zweite Gehäusewand 5b in mehreren Bewegungsrichtungen relativ zur ersten Gehäusewand 5a stabilisierbar ist. Fig. 3 shows the housing 5 in an exploded view. The two housing walls 5a, 5b are essentially plate-shaped and can have the same structural design. You can see the projections 15a-15h and the supporting edges 17a, 17b, through which the housing 5 can be supported on the furniture body 2 when assembled. The housing walls 5a, 5b each have at least one guide device 19a, 19b for guiding a fastening means 16a, 16b ( Fig. 2 ), with at least one support body 21a, 21b being designed separately from the guide devices 19a, 19b. In the assembled position, the support bodies 21a, 21b are each connected to the plate-shaped housing walls 5a, 5b and at least partially surround the guide devices 19a, 19b, so that movement of the two housing walls 5a, 5b relative to one another is prevented or inhibited. In the exemplary embodiment shown, two support bodies 21a, 21b are provided, which are spaced apart from one another in a longitudinal direction of the housing 5. The support bodies 21a, 21b are designed as V-shaped profile pieces, whereby the Fastening points 18 of the support bodies 21a, 21b in the assembled position engage in corresponding recesses 18a of the housing walls 5a, 5b. Fig. 4a shows the first housing wall 5a with the supporting bodies 21a, 21b for stabilizing the second housing wall 5b. The support bodies 21a, 21b can each have two legs 20a, 20b connected to one another, which form an acute angle to one another. The support bodies 21a, 21b each have at least one fastening point 18 on the sides facing the housing walls 5a, 5b, which are each inserted into the recesses 18a ( Fig. 3 ) of the housing walls 5a, 5b intervene. In the figure shown, the first support body 21a and the second support body 21b are arranged offset from one another by 180 °, whereby the second housing wall 5b can be stabilized in several directions of movement relative to the first housing wall 5a.

Fig. 4b zeigt eine Seitenansicht der ersten Gehäusewand 5a, wobei die Anordnung des ersten und zweiten Stützkörpers 21a, 21b relativ zu den Führungsvorrichtungen 19a, 19b hervorgeht. Die Befestigungsstellen 18 der Stützkörper 21a, 21b sind dabei mit einem möglichst großen Abstand relativ zu einer Mittelachse der Führungsvorrichtungen 19a, 19b angeordnet, wodurch sich ein verbessertes Widerstandsmoment bei einer Belastung des Möbelantriebes 4 ergibt. Die Stützränder 17a, 17b können jeweils als Prägungen ausgebildet sein, wodurch das Risiko einer Verformung der Gehäusewände 5a, 5b beim Anschrauben an den Möbelkorpus 2 verringert wird. In der gezeigten Figur sind die Befestigungsstellen 18 der Stützkörper 21a, 21b in einem, vorzugsweise im Wesentlichen gleichseitigen, Dreieck angeordnet, wobei der Möbelantrieb 4 durch die gezeigte Dreiecksabstützung zur Aufnahme von hohen Lasten geeignet ist. Fig. 4b shows a side view of the first housing wall 5a, showing the arrangement of the first and second support bodies 21a, 21b relative to the guide devices 19a, 19b. The fastening points 18 of the support bodies 21a, 21b are arranged at the greatest possible distance relative to a central axis of the guide devices 19a, 19b, which results in an improved moment of resistance when the furniture drive 4 is loaded. The supporting edges 17a, 17b can each be embossed, which reduces the risk of deformation of the housing walls 5a, 5b when screwing them onto the furniture body 2. In the figure shown, the fastening points 18 of the support bodies 21a, 21b are arranged in a, preferably essentially equilateral, triangle, with the furniture drive 4 being suitable for absorbing high loads due to the triangular support shown.

Fig. 5a zeigt einen Querschnitt des Möbelantriebes 4, während Fig. 5b den in Fig. 5a eingekreisten Bereich in einer vergrößerten Ansicht visualisiert. Die Führungsvorrichtung 19b zur Aufnahme und/oder Führung des Befestigungsmittels 16b, beispielsweise einer Schraube, kann auch zwei oder mehrteilig ausgeführt sein und umfasst zusätzlich einen zylindrischen Abschnitt 24 (Fig. 5b), beispielsweise in Form einer Hülse, zur Führung des Befestigungsmittels 16b. Der Stützkörper 21b ist von dieser Führungsvorrichtung 19b gesondert ausgebildet, d.h. der Stützkörper 21b ist nicht zur Führung des Befestigungsmittels 16b vorgesehen und daher zur Führungsvorrichtung 19b kontaktlos ausgebildet. Zu erkennen sind die Befestigungsstellen 18 des Stützkörpers 21b, welche einerseits mit der ersten Gehäusewand 5a und andererseits mit der zweiten Gehäusewand 5b fest verbunden sind sowie die zur Stabilisierung der Gehäusewände 5a, 5b vorgesehenen, quer abstehenden Stützränder 17b, welche beispielsweise durch Prägen hergestellt werden können. Die erste Gehäusewand 5a ist durch die Befestigungsmittel 16a, 16b am Möbelkorpus 2 zu befestigen, die zweite Gehäusewand 5b ist hingegen über zumindest einen oder mehrere Stützkörper 21a, 21b an der ersten Gehäusewand 5a gelagert. Fig. 5a shows a cross section of the furniture drive 4, while Fig. 5b the in Fig. 5a circled area visualized in an enlarged view. The guide device 19b for receiving and/or guiding the Fastening means 16b, for example a screw, can also be made in two or more parts and additionally includes a cylindrical section 24 ( Fig. 5b ), for example in the form of a sleeve, for guiding the fastening means 16b. The support body 21b is designed separately from this guide device 19b, ie the support body 21b is not intended to guide the fastening means 16b and is therefore designed to be contactless to the guide device 19b. You can see the fastening points 18 of the support body 21b, which are firmly connected on the one hand to the first housing wall 5a and on the other hand to the second housing wall 5b, as well as the transversely projecting support edges 17b provided to stabilize the housing walls 5a, 5b, which can be produced, for example, by embossing . The first housing wall 5a is to be fastened to the furniture body 2 by the fastening means 16a, 16b, while the second housing wall 5b is mounted on the first housing wall 5a via at least one or more support bodies 21a, 21b.
