Definitions

  • the invention relates to a differential pull-out for drawers or the like.
  • a mounting rail to be fastened to a furniture body With a mounting rail to be fastened to a furniture body, a pull-out rail to be fastened to the drawer and a middle rail arranged in between on each side of the drawer, the weight of the drawers between the rails by means of rollers od.
  • a deflection roller is arranged at the front and at the rear end of the center rail, and a control cable, which is attached to the mounting rail and on the pull-out rail, is guided over the deflection rollers, with a at the front end of the center rail Headstock is arranged.
  • a device is provided to ensure that the rails run differentially with respect to one another.
  • This device can consist, for example, of a gearwheel mounted on the central rail, which meshes with toothed racks on the pull-out rail and the mounting rail.
  • a simplified version would be the arrangement of a friction wheel on the middle rail.
  • a particularly precise guidance of the middle rail is achieved by a control cable which is fastened to the mounting rail and the pull-out rail and which runs on both sides of the middle rail and is guided at the front and rear ends via band guides of the middle rail.
  • a control cable which is fastened to the mounting rail and the pull-out rail and which runs on both sides of the middle rail and is guided at the front and rear ends via band guides of the middle rail.
  • the object of the invention is to facilitate the hanging of a drawer completely removed from the furniture body in such a differential extension.
  • the headstock which is preferably made of plastic, has an arcuate downward facing cap for the front end of the rail, as well as a longitudinal rail web with a straight section and a front section that is bent downwards, wherein an opening is provided in the area of the rail web in which a roller associated with the central rail is mounted.
  • the headstock according to the invention facilitates the hanging of the pull-out rail and at the same time offers protection for the deflection roller for the control cable arranged at the front end of the middle rail.
  • Hanging the pull-out rail is facilitated in particular by the rail webs arranged in front of and behind the roller.
  • FIG. 1 shows diagrammatically and pulled apart the parts of the differential pull-out and the drawer frame
  • Fig. 2 shows pulled apart a diagram of the front end of the middle rail and the cover cap
  • Fig. 3 shows a side view of the middle rail and the cover cap before assembly
  • FIG. 4 shows a section through the central rail and the mounted cover cap
  • FIG. 5 shows a side view of the central rail with the cover cap installed.
  • the drawer is formed by the two metal drawer frames 28, a front panel, a drawer bottom and the rear wall 27.
  • the mounting rail 2 is fastened in a conventional manner to the side wall of the body via a fastening web 40.
  • the drawer bottom rests on a horizontal web 41 of the pull-out rail 15.
  • In the horizontal web 41 are from the horizontal web 41 expressible tab 42 with pine cone profile or the like in a groove. of the drawer bottom can be pressed in and thus anchor the drawer bottom on the pull-out rail 15.
  • the central rail 5 is located between the pull-out rail 15 and the mounting rail 2.
  • the central rail 5 has a lower profile 5 ', in which there is a carriage 3 in which rollers are mounted.
  • the middle rail 5 is therefore guided in relation to the mounting rail 2 via the rollers mounted in the carriage 3.
  • the middle rail 5 is provided with an upper, partially U-shaped profile 5 ′′.
  • the catwalks 43, 44 of this profile 5 ' run the rollers 22, 23, which are mounted on the rear adapter 18 of the pull-out rail 15.
  • the catwalk 45 of the pull-out rail 15 runs again on the roller 6 mounted on the lower profile 5 'of the center rail 5.
  • the central rail 5 has a front and a rear cable pulley 9 for the control cable 10, which is mounted as an endless belt on the cable pulleys 9 on the central rail 5.
  • the control cable 10 which is formed, for example, by a wire or plastic cable, has a snap-type cable coupling 8.
  • the cable coupling 8 consists of two coupling parts 12, 13 which are connected to the cable ends of the control cable 10.
  • the coupling part 13 can be anchored to the mounting rail 2 via a hook.
  • a further coupling is provided.
  • This consists of an outer coupling part 19 and an inner coupling part 11.
  • the outer coupling part 19 is fastened to the pull-out rail 15 by means of screws or rivets 20 which protrude through fastening holes.
  • It includes the inner coupling part 11 like pliers.
  • the inner coupling part 11 can be pressed into a trough-shaped recess 55 of the outer coupling part 19.
  • a roller 6 is supported by means of a rivet 7 on tabs 59 of a headstock 4.
  • the runway 45 of the pull-out rail 15 runs on the roller 6.
  • two rollers 22, 23 are mounted by means of rents 21.
  • the rollers 22 are guided in the upper profile 5 ′′ of the middle rail 5 and are located inside the adapter 18. They are mounted one behind the other.
  • the front roller 22 is narrower than the rear roller 23 and is supported on the web 43 of the upper profile 5 ′′ of the center rail 5 when the drawer is moved.
  • roller 22 Since the roller 22 is supported on the lower horizontal web 43 and the roller 23 on the upper horizontal web 44, there is no change in the direction of rotation of the rollers 22, 23 during the pulling out or insertion of the drawer, and thus the drawer is guided more smoothly.
  • a headstock 4 made of plastic material is attached at the front end of the lower profile 5 'of the central rail 5, as already mentioned.
  • the headstock 4 has an opening 62 through which the roller 6 protrudes.
  • the headstock 4, which overlaps the front end of the lower profile 5 'of the central rail 5 and at least partially covers it with an arcuate cover cap 14, is provided with a rail web 63 which has a straight section 63' and a front section 63 'which is bent downwards ' having.
  • the headstock 4 has pins 30 which can be inserted into the punched holes 31 in the center rail 5 and by means of which the headstock 4 can be fitted onto the center rail 5.
  • the headstock 4 is provided with lateral webs 59, into which a rivet 7 can be inserted, which serves as a bearing axis for the roller 6.
  • the roller 6 protrudes into a recess 62 in the headstock 14.
  • All three adapters 16, 17, 18 have retaining webs 64 projecting downwards.
  • the drawer frames 28 are double-walled with an outer wall 65 and an inner wall 66.
  • the outer wall 65 has, at its lower edge, a retaining web 67 which is angled inwards and upward, with which it can be suspended in the retaining webs 64 of the adapters 16, 17, 18.
  • the inner wall 66 has a horizontal web 68 which rests on the drawer base 38 when the drawer is mounted and a vertical side web 69 which rests on the side of the drawer base 38.
  • the transition from the horizontal web 68 to the inner wall 66 is rounded.
  • drawer frame 28 is neither welded to the adapters 16, 17, 18 nor to the pull-out rail 15, drawer frames made of any material can be hung in the adapters 16, 17, 18, starting with plastic frames over aluminum frames up to steel frames made of a stainless steel material.
  • the furniture manufacturer is therefore given the possibility of equipping drawers with very different prices with the differential pull-out according to the invention.
  • a pull-in device 1 for the drawer is mounted on the mounting rail 2. This has a tilting segment 121 acted upon by a spring, which serves as a driver for a pin arranged on the central rail 5.
