• a side edge of the components lying on top of each other, namely the rotating plate, the positioning plate and the floor or ceiling, is enclosed by a profile.
• this profile has a receptacle on an inner side of a central wall into which a locking lug formed on a lateral elevation of the positioning plate projects.
• the rotating plate is arranged directly in the rotating element or on the floor and/or ceiling of the body.
• the drilling positions for fixing the rotating plate to the floor or ceiling can be advantageously selected depending on the material thickness of the panel or panels to be installed. This can be done with the help of a drilling template, a value table, a computer program or a mobile application.
• At least one further furniture element is arranged adjacent to the rotating element, wherein one of the outer edges of the rotating element opposite the outer edges of the body is aligned in the starting position of the rotating element in alignment with a front surface of the further furniture element.
• top, bottom, left, right, front, back, etc. refer exclusively to the exemplary representation and position of the furniture, rotating element, body, floor, ceiling, rotating plate, positioning plate, panel, and the like chosen in the respective figures. These terms are not to be understood as limiting; i.e., these references may change due to different working positions or mirror-symmetrical design, etc.
• the reference number 1 designates an exemplary piece of furniture.
• the furniture 1 essentially consists of a furniture body 3 with one or more furniture elements 32, for example in the form of drawers or interior spaces closed by doors, as well as a ceiling 33 and a floor not provided with reference symbols here, which is supported for example by feet 35, which are covered at least on one front side and sides by a cover strip 36.
