A furniture element, in particular a support or shelf having at least one storage level, has a carcass having at least one support surface, and a translational-rotation fitting for allowing a translational-rotational movement of the carcass relative to a carrier plate of the fitting from a starting position into an open position, and back. The carcass can be moved, relative to the carrier plate, out of a starting position, into an intermediate position, and further into an open position, and back. In an intermediate position, the carcass is rotated in a rotational direction and is displaced in a predefined direction; a guide channel that specifies the direction is provided in the carrier plate, in which guide channel a guide carriage is displaceably received. There is at least one self-retraction apparatus coupled to the guide carriage and is situated on a side of the carrier plate facing away from the carcass.

A rotary shelf assembly for a blind corner cabinet is provided. The apparatus is easily reconfigured to accommodate left and right-hand configurations and does not contact the partitions of the cabinet during stowage or deployment. The apparatus is comprised of a center pole secured to a cabinet frame with a universal frame bracket. The frame bracket has a set of opposing flanges attached to a base through which the center pole extends. A rotary coupling is secured to the base of the frame bracket. A rotary support engages the rotary coupling and rotates about the center pole. A shelf is adjustably and slidably attached to the rotary support by a set of slide assemblies. More than one shelf can be independently rotated about the center pole from a stowed position to a rotated position. Each shelf can also slide linearly along the set of slide assemblies to a deployed position.

A fitting for a corner cupboard comprises a support arm mounted to a basis such that it can be pivoted in a pivoting movement about a first vertical pivot axis; an elongated tray supported on the support arm such that it can be pulled out in a pull-out movement along a horizontal axis. A coupling device coupling the pivoting movement of the support arm to the pull-out movement of the tray comprises a control arm which, at its one end, is mounted to the basis such that it can be pivoted about a second vertical pivot axis and which, at its other end, is mounted to the tray such that it can be pivoted about a third vertical pivot axis. In a pushed-in position of the tray the second pivot axis, when viewing along the horizontal axis, is arranged between the first and third pivot axes.

A storage device comprising a support element attached to a vertical element, the support element including a slot. The slot is accessible from a top surface of the support element and provides a surface to support at least one hook. The hook extends through the slot and below the bottom surface of the support element. The hook provides an interface for hanging and storing an item from the storage device. The storage device may be adapted to rotate within a corner cabinet or be interconnected to a door of a cabinet.

A rotary support engages the rotary coupling and rotates about the center pole. A shelf is adjustably and slidably attached to the rotary support by a set of slide assemblies. More than one shelf can be independently rotated about the center pole from a stowed position to a rotated position. Each shelf can also slide linearly along the set of slide assemblies to a deployed position.

A vertically adjustable rotary shelf assembly for use within a corner cabinet is provided. The shelf assembly includes an inner pole telescopically engaged with an outer pole. Disc shaped shelves are adjustably attached. A first height adjustment assembly provides a macro adjustment between the inner pole and the outer pole. A second height adjustment assembly provides a micro adjustment. The second height adjustment provides a shaft having a threaded section, a thumbwheel threadably engaged with the threaded section, and a two lobed cam. Rotation of the thumbwheel adjusts the vertical position of the outer pole, the shelves, and an attached cabinet face to align the cabinet face with the adjacent cabinets. A flexible cam follower is provided. The flexible cam follower engages the two lobed cam to bias the cabinet face in a home position.

A rotary fitting for a cabinet with top and bottom walls comprises a rotating supporting column, a top and a bottom rotary mounts for the supporting column, and at least one shelf to be fixed to the supporting column. The supporting column has a main tube, a bottom element mounted to the main tube, and a height adjustment device for a height of the main tube above the bottom rotary mount. The height adjustment device comprises a screw and a nut screwed onto the screw. One of the screw and the nut is fixed to the bottom element, and the other is axially supported within the main tube and has a bevel gear. There is a guiding hole in the main tube adjacent to the bevel gear, through which the bevel gear can be engaged and rotated by a screwdriver crosstip.
