A device for blocking the pull-out movement of pull-out furniture parts including, for each of the pull-out furniture parts, a driver, a blocking unit which has a shiftable actuating, and a retraction spring and blocking rods which cooperate with the actuating parts, a respective actuating part that is shifted due to movement of the driver when the pull-out furniture part is pulled out and that displaces a blocking rod in a longitudinal axis direction, the blocking rods being blocked from any further axial displacement by a stop. Each of the blocking units has a pivotable catch arm that swivelable about a stationary pivot axis lying parallel to the longitudinal axes of the blocking rods and is loaded by the refraction spring, the catch arm being pivoted by the driver from an initial position to a final position when the pull-out furniture part is pulled out, thereby shifting the actuating part.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet defining a storage compartment, a door, a drawer, a roller at a side of the drawer, a support rail at a side of the storage compartment for guiding movement of the roller in a forward-rearward direction, and a support surface in the support rail for supporting the roller, the support surface including a downhill guide section that slopes downward from a rear of the refrigerator to a front of the refrigerator and a slide guide section that extends from the downhill guide section.

A guide device for a moveable furniture part, in particular a drawer, has a catch which is moveable along a guide track and which is pretensioned by an energy store and which is moveable at least between a parked position with a tensioned energy store and an end position with a less tensioned energy store. The energy store can be coupled to an activator between the parked position and the end position in order to transmit a braking or acceleration force to the moveable furniture part, and wherein the activator has a metal support part.

A drive device includes a carrier, an ejection device for ejecting a moveable furniture part out of a closed position, and a locking device for locking the ejection device in the locked position. The locking device has a locking pin connected to the ejection device and a guide track for the locking pin in or on the carrier. The locking pin is locked in an engaging recess of the guide track in the locked position, and a synchronisation device is movable relative to the carrier for synchronising the movement of the drive device with a second drive device. The synchronisation device has a transmission element to be moved by the locking pin. The transmission element remains still with the overpressure movement, can be moved by the locking pin during opening movement, can be moved by the locking pin during closing movement, and is linearly moveably mounted on the carrier.

A drive device includes a carrier, an ejection device for ejecting a moveable furniture part out of a closed position, and a locking device for locking the ejection device in the locked position. The locking device has a locking pin connected to the ejection device and a guide track for the locking pin in or on the carrier. The locking pin is locked in an engaging recess of the guide track in the locked position, and a synchronisation device is movable relative to the carrier for synchronising the movement of the drive device with a second drive device. The synchronisation device has a transmission element to be moved by the locking pin. The transmission element remains still with the overpressure movement, can be moved by the locking pin during opening movement, can be moved by the locking pin during closing movement, and is linearly moveably mounted on the carrier.

A locking device is adapted for a first object and a second object that are movable with respect to each other. The locking device includes a first element and a second element. The first element can be in a locking state or an unlocking state. The second element drives the first element and thereby moves the first element from the locking state to the unlocking state in response to the second object being displaced with respect to the first object from a retracted position to a predetermined position in an opening direction.

Provided is a refrigerator having an opening/closing device with an improved structure which allows a storage box to be automatically inserted and withdrawn according to the opening and closing of a door and allows the storage box to be further pushed backward while the door is closed,

The refrigerator includes a main body, a storage chamber having a front side that is open, and provided at an inside with a storage box that is movable in a front-rear direction, a door rotatably coupled to the main body to open and close the storage chamber, and provided at a rear surface with a pusher that protrudes in a direction toward the storage chamber, and an opening and closing device provided at one side of the storage box, and formed to allow the storage box to be moved in the front and rear direction according to the opening and closing of the door, wherein the opening and closing device includes a rack gear configured to move in a front and rear direction according to the opening and closing of the door, a locking member rotatably coupled to the rack gear to be locked with and released from the storage box, the locking member configured to move in the front and rear direction together with the rack gear, and a catcher configured to rotate to be caught with and released from the pusher according to the opening and closing of the door, wherein the catcher is rotated to be caught with the pusher when the door is a closed state to push the rack gear such that the rack gear is moved backward.
