A guide system is hingedly connected to a second furniture part, and has a rail arrangement including a guide rail having a longitudinal direction for guiding the furniture parts, and a carrier movably mounted transversely to the longitudinal direction of the guide rail. The carrier can be moved into a transfer position in which the carrier adjoins the guide rail in the longitudinal direction such that a guiding device to be connected to one of the furniture parts and movable along the guide rail can be transferred to and from between the guide rail and the carrier. The guide system includes a column connected to the carrier, the column being arranged vertically, and can be moved together with the carrier transversely to the longitudinal direction of the guide rail. The first furniture part is connected to the guiding device, and the second furniture part is movably connected to the column.

A guide system for guiding at least one movably-supported door wing, in particular a folding-sliding-door, relative to a stationary furniture part. The guide system includes a carrier for movably supporting the at least one door wing, a guide rail configured to be fixed to the stationary furniture part for guiding the at least one carrier, a guiding device for displaceably supporting the at least one carrier along the guide rail, a running carriage configured to be coupled to the at least one door wing, and a receiving device for receiving the at least one running carriage. The receiving device adjoins the carrier in a longitudinal direction of the carrier, and the receiving device is movably supported relative the carrier in the longitudinal direction of the carrier.

An arrangement for guiding a movable furniture part includes a guide rail to be fastened to the fixed furniture part, a guide device mounted movably on the at least one guide rail and in particular can be coupled to the movable furniture part, and a first cable having a first end to be secured to the fixed furniture part and a second end to be coupled to the guide device. A securing device can secure the first cable to the fixed furniture part, and the securing device has a mounting device designed such that the first cable is mounted so as to be movable relative to the fixed furniture part to a limited extent at least in the event of overload.

A guide carriage includes a chassis having a rotatably supported running wheel and a connecting member for connecting the guide carriage to the furniture part. The chassis and the connecting member are configured as constructional units separate from one another and are configured to be connected to one another by a fastening device. The fastening device includes a force storage member and at least one locking element configured to be pressurized by the force storage member. The chassis and the connecting member are configured to be releasably locked to one another by a force of the force storage member. A holding device separate from the fastening device is provided for fastening the connecting member to the chassis. The connecting member is configured to be hung into the chassis via the holding device, can be pivoted about a, preferably horizontally extending, axis in the hung-in condition, and can be locked to the chassis by the locking element.

A food shield for use in a restaurant or food service institution includes a pair of partially overlapping upper and lower transparent panels, first and second locking assemblies connected to and supporting one lateral side of each of the upper and lower transparent panels, and first and second non-locking assemblies connected to and supporting the opposite lateral side of each of the upper and lower transparent panels. Each of the first locking and non-locking assemblies, which supports the upper transparent panel, is mountable to a respective vertical support post. The food shield is transformable into three different settings. In a cafeteria setting, the upper and lower transparent panels overlap each other to provide a full length barrier in front of food product being displayed. In a self-serve setting, the lower transparent panel is pivoted inwardly such that it resides behind the upper transparent panel. In a self-serve and display setting, the lower transparent panel is adjusted to a horizontal position to create a shelf situated behind the upper transparent panel.

An arrangement includes a rail profile and a running carriage movably mounted relative to the rail profile in the longitudinal direction and to which a sliding door can be fastened. The running carriage has a rolling body, and the rail profile has a running surface extending in the longitudinal direction of the rail profile and supporting the rolling body. The rolling body is displaceable on the running surface transversely to the longitudinal direction of the rail profile. Therefore, the running carriage can be pivoted about a pivot axis extending substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rail profile. The rail profile has a vertical web extending in the longitudinal direction and oriented substantially perpendicularly to the running surface. The running carriage can be pivoted about the pivot axis such that a distance from the vertical web increases under loading by the sliding door.

A furniture hinge includes a first fitting portion to be fixed to a furniture part or a carrier movably-supported relative to a furniture carcass, a second fitting portion to be fixed to a movably-supported furniture part, and a hinge mechanism connecting the fitting portions. The hinge mechanism has a least five hinge axis members, and includes a supporting lever directly connecting the fitting portions. The hinge mechanism includes a control mechanism for controlling a motion sequence between the first and second fitting portions. The control mechanism is separate from the supporting lever and has at least three control levers hingedly connected together. A first control lever is connected to the first fitting portion via a hinge axis member, a second control lever is connected to the second fitting portion via a hinge axis member, and a third control lever connects the first control lever and the second control lever.

A furniture hinge includes a first fitting portion, a second fitting portion, and a hinge axis hingedly connecting the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion. The fitting portions are movable between a first position, in which the furniture parts are aligned substantially coplanar to one another, and a second position, in which the furniture parts are aligned substantially parallel to one another. A cover can at least partially cover a gap formed between the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion, and a movement of the cover can be coupled to a movement of the furniture hinge. The first fitting portion and/or the second fitting portion includes an abutment, and the cover includes a counter-abutment. Upon a relative movement of the fitting portions, the abutment abuts against the counter-abutment. The cover, due to the abutment bearing against the counter-abutment, can be moved about the hinge axis.

An arrangement has at least two door leaves which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, and can be moved between a parallel position, in which the at least two door leaves are oriented substantially parallel to one another, and a coplanar position, in which the at least two door leaves are oriented in a substantially coplanar manner. The arrangement includes a guide rail for fastening on a fixed furniture part, and a guide device to be connected to a folding/sliding door and mounted to be moved on the guide rail. The arrangement has a vertical carrier on which the folding/sliding door can be mounted in a pivotable manner. The guide rail and/or the guide device comprises a force store by which the folding/sliding door can be subjected to a force directed counter to the weight-induced force.

A furniture hinge includes a first fitting portion configured to be fixed to a first furniture part, a second fitting portion configured to be fixed to a second furniture part, at least one hinge axis by which the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion are hingedly connected to one another, and at least one adjustment device for adjusting a position of the first fitting portion relative to the second fitting portion. The adjustment device includes at least one movably-supported adjustment element, and the position of the first fitting portion relative to the second fitting portion can be adjusted by an actuation of the at least one adjustment element. Upon actuation of the at least one adjustment element, the position of the first fitting portion and the position of the second fitting portion can be synchronously and symmetrically adjusted in relation to the at least one hinge axis.
