Assembly made of a bearing web for a drawer base and a holding device
An assembly includes a bearing web for a drawer base of a drawer, and a holding device for a drive device for driving the drawer relative to a furniture body. The holding device has a securing element, by which the holding device can be secured to the bearing web. The bearing web includes a receiving area for the securing element and a bearing region for the drawer base adjacently to the receiving area. The securing element has a support surface that faces the drawer base in a secured state, and the holding device is secured to the bearing web. The support surface of the securing element and the bearing region of the bearing web form a substantially flat drawer base bearing surface for the drawer base in the secured state. The drawer base bearing surface can rest against the drawer base in a flush manner in the secured state.
Retracting dishwasher rack system
A retracting rack for an appliance such as a dish washing appliance. The rack may be positionable between a stowed position and a deployed position. A spring may drive the rack towards the stowed position. A locking mechanism may be used to secure the rack in one or more positions. A release mechanism and/or a reset mechanism may be used to control the retracting cycle of the rack.
Piece of furniture or domestic appliance and method for mounting a functional unit of a drawer element in a piece of furniture or domestic appliance
A piece of furniture or domestic appliance includes a body, a drawer element slidably arranged in the body and having two side walls. Respective pull-out guides are arranged between the side panels and side walls of the body. Each of the pull-out guides has at least one body rail fastenable to a side wall of the body and one running rail fastenable to the side panel. The piece of furniture or domestic appliance also includes at least one functional unit, which is coupled to one of the pull-out guides. A functional unit is detachably arranged in at least one of the side walls at distance from the pull-out guide, which functional unit, in a predefined position of the drawer element relative to the body, is operatively connected to a counter-element stationarily mounted on the body or on the body rail.

Sheet supporting apparatus and image forming apparatus
A sheet supporting apparatus includes a sheet supporting unit having a sheet supporting portion including a supporting surface on which a sheet is supported, and a first engagement unit attached to the sheet supporting portion, and a second engagement unit to draw in the sheet supporting unit toward an attaching position where the sheet supporting unit is attached to an apparatus body. The first engagement unit includes a first engagement portion, a base portion supported by the sheet supporting portion, and a holder that is supported movably in a perpendicular direction perpendicular to the supporting surface by the base portion and configured to hold the first engagement portion. The base portion supports the holder swingably around a swing shaft that extends in a direction orthogonal to both the perpendicular direction and an inserting direction in which the sheet supporting unit is inserted.

REFRIGERATOR APPLIANCE WITH A DRAWER SLIDE SYNCHRONIZER
A refrigerator appliance includes a drawer slide synchronizer with a first cable and a second cable. A first bearing is mounted to a first one of a pair of drawer slides, and a second bearing is mounted to a second one of the pair of drawer slides. The first and second cables contact the first bearing, and the first and second cables also contact the second bearing.
Slide rail assembly and returning device thereof
A slide rail assembly includes a first rail, a second rail, a returning device and a connecting device. The returning device is arranged on the first rail and includes an elastic member and a movable member. The connecting device is arranged on the second rail and includes a first connecting member and a second connecting member. During a process of the second rail being moved relative to the first rail from an extended position along a retracting direction, the second connecting member is configured to contact the movable member, in order to drive the movable member to switch from a second state to a first state. Accordingly, the second rail is configured to be driven to move to a retracted position by an elastic force of the elastic member.

Synchronized locking system for a movable furniture part
An arrangement includes two locking devices which are arranged on either side of a movable furniture part for locking the movable furniture part with respect to a furniture body in a locking position. Each locking device has a blocking device which prevents the locking position from being reached in a blocking position. Each locking device has a releasing device by means of which the blocking position of the blocking device associated with the other locking device can be cancelled.
