A slide rail assembly includes a rail, a moving rail, and a damping device. When the moving rail is moved relative to the rail, the damping device is pushed by the moving rail to provide damping effect.

A damping device for damping the opening movement of a moveable furniture part comprises a base unit and a movement unit that is moveable in relation to the base unit. The base unit comprises a furniture body of a piece of furniture and a first damping mechanism having a first clamping mechanism. The movement unit comprises the furniture part and a second damping mechanism that dampens an end position when the moveable furniture part approaches the open position. The second damping mechanism has a second clamping mechanism. The first and second clamping mechanisms can be detachably and dynamically clamped to one another for damping the movement of the moveable furniture part when the moveable furniture part approaches the open position.

A drawer slide apparatus mounted to a drawer slide assembly for moving a drawer slidingly within a cabinet provides push-to-open and soft close functionality while further providing a depth and alignment adjustment of the drawer relative to the cabinet carcass. The apparatus comprises a housing including a soft close track, a damper, and a carriage slidable within the soft close track. A guide block comprising a set of channels within a stationary part and a movable part for providing the depth and alignment adjustment. A pin, slidable within the carriage, has a first end engaged with the soft close track and a second end simultaneously engaged with the guide block provides the soft close and push-to-open functionalities.

A device for moving a movable furniture part, the device including a force accumulator such that by way of the device which is fitted to an item of furniture the movable furniture part in the case of an opening procedure by action of the force accumulator is capable of being put in the opening direction, wherein in the case of a movement of the movable furniture part in the closing direction, a charging procedure of the force accumulator is performed, wherein a front gap between the movable furniture part and the basic furniture structure is configured on the item of furniture in a closed state of the movable furniture part, wherein the front gap is adjustable by way of an adjustment assembly.

A slide rail assembly includes first and second rails, a ball bearing assembly, and a damping device. The first rail has front and rear ends and a middle portion therebetween. The second rail is displaceable with respect to the first rail. The ball bearing assembly is movably mounted between the front and rear ends of the first rail and includes a ball retainer with a plurality of balls and a stopping feature. The damping device is mounted on the middle portion of the first rail to provide a damping force corresponding to the stopping feature of the ball retainer. The ball retainer can be displaced by the second rail such that the stopping feature of the ball retainer contacts the damping device.

A device for damping the movement of a movably mounted component includes a first, mechanically acting braking device with at least one friction pair, wherein, in order to generate a braking force, a driven friction surface can be rotated about an axis of the first braking device relative to a secured friction surface resting thereon, and a second braking device which is coupled to the first braking device, wherein the friction surfaces of the friction pair, or of at least one of the friction pairs, are pressed against each other in response to a braking force exerted by the second braking device. The second braking device has at least one driven damper surface that can be rotated about an axis of the second braking device and cooperates with at least one secured damper surface to enclose at least one gap in which a viscous damping medium is present that causes a braking force of the second braking device when the at least one driven damper surface is rotated with respect to the at least one secured damper surface.

A damping device for the damping of the opening movement of a movable furniture part comprises: a fixed base unit with a furniture body of a piece of furniture; a movable base unit having the movable furniture part; and a damping unit comprising a first and a second damping component which are movable relative to one another when performing a damping function, of which the first damping component is arranged on the one base unit and as it approaches the movable base unit an impact takes place in the final position of said base unit between the second damping component and the other base unit, thereby triggering the damping function the first damping component is movably mounted on the allocated base unit such that on impact it can be displaced from a standby position into a working position supported by a stop in which the damping function can be performed.

A drawer slide apparatus mounted to a drawer slide assembly for moving a drawer slidingly within a cabinet provides push-to-open and soft close functionality while further providing a depth and alignment adjustment of the drawer relative to the cabinet carcass. The apparatus comprises a housing including a soft close track, a damper, and a carriage slidable within the soft close track. A guide block comprising a set of channels within a stationary part and a movable part for providing the depth and alignment adjustment. A pin, slidable within the carriage, has a first end engaged with the soft close track and a second end simultaneously engaged with the guide block provides the soft close and push-to-open functionalities.

The invention relates to an inclined shelf case having a shelf body having at least one inclined shelf which drops away to the take-out side and has an abutting element holding a placed object on the bottom end thereof, wherein the at least one inclined shelf is held to the shelf body via guide rails and is designed as a pull-out running on the guide rails which can be pulled out to the take-out side and having a spring device for decelerating the inclined shelf during the pull-out, which operates between the shelf body and the inclined shelf. According to the invention the spring device has a connection element which has a first connection section, which is connected to the shelf body in an operating position by means of a holder , and which has a second connection section, and the inclined shelf has a fastening holder to which the connection element is fastened via the second connection section in an assembly position, wherein, upon pushing in the inclined shelf with the connection element in the assembly position, the first connection section engages on the holder and wherein the second connection section is removable from the fastening holder.

In an embodiment, an apparatus (e.g., for damping a motion of a drawer in a storage system) comprises a plate to pivotally attach to a first wall of a drawer, the plate comprising a pivot point about which the plate can pivot; a damped gear coupled to the plate, the damped gear having a plurality of gear teeth; and a spring to facilitate pivoting the plate about the pivot point to engage at least one of the plurality of gear teeth with at least one tooth on a rack. In some embodiments, the spring is to pivot the plate from a first configuration to an angular position relative the wall in a second configuration, wherein the at least one of the plurality of gear teeth and the at least one tooth on the rack are fully engaged with one another in both the first configuration and the second configuration.
