The invention relates to a piece of furniture, comprising a furniture body, a two-part furniture flap having a first flap part, preferably arranged at the top in the assembled position, and a second flap part, preferably arranged at the bottom in the assembled position, and at least one supporting device for the furniture flap, wherein the supporting device is connected to the furniture body and the furniture flap in an articulated manner, wherein the supporting device has a transmission part, which is arranged on the inside of the first flap part and defines the setting angle of the second flap part to the first flap part according to the setting angle of the first flap part.

An insertion station of a component (2), for example a clevis, in a component seat (12) formed in an assembly (3) to be assembled, for example a hinge assembly for doors, includes a component ordering device (14) to order the loose components coming from a component feed hopper. A component support seat (16) receives the component and is configured in such a way as to guide the component in the horizontal insertion direction. A manipulator (20) picks a component (2) from the component ordering device (14) and deposit the component in the component support seat (16). An insertion actuator (30) has a pusher member (32) operable to push the component (2) in the component seat (12), and a positioning unit (40), including an abutment (42) operable to block the assembly (3) in a component insertion position.

A furniture hinge for pivotally connecting at least two furniture parts to one another, including: at least two fastening portions which are pivotally connected to one another for fastening to the furniture parts, wherein the fastening portions can be moved relative to each other between a closed position and an open position, a spring device for pressing the fastening portions into the closed position and/or into the open position, a damping device for dampening a relative movement of the fastening portions, wherein the spring device is integrated into the damping device, wherein the damping device and the spring device are accommodated within a first and within a second housing portion, wherein the first and second housing portions, for performing the relative movement, are displaceably arranged relative to one another.

The showcase has a hinge comprising a fixed element, associated with the container body, a mobile element, intended to be associated with the door, and a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod hinged between the fixed element and the mobile element, so as to obtain an articulated quadrilateral adapted for causing a roto-translation of the fixed element with respect to the mobile element between an open position and a closed position of the hinge. The hinge also comprises a hook, associated with one from the fixed element and the mobile element and adapted for cooperating in a releasable manner with engagement means associated with the other from the fixed element and the mobile element, so as to counteract the movement of the mobile element away from the fixed element when the hinge is in closed position.

A hidden, corner hinge assembly for a display case includes: (a) a fixed, inner rail with an interior space with an opening, (b) a movable, door rail with a semi-enclosed, interior space with a opening that is adapted to allow the adjoining fixed, inner rail to pass into and out of this opening when the display case's door moves between closed and open positions, (c) inner rail posts mounted within the semi-enclosed, interior spaces, (d) a first and a second link, each with an end that rotatably attaches to a rail post in each of the semi-enclosed, interior spaces, and (e) wherein the locations of the post mountings and the configurations and lengths of the link are set so as to allow the display case's door to open by moving inward and away from the vertical edge where the hinge assembly is being used.

An assembly line (40) includes a transport system having pallets (70), a riveting machine (100) with a stop device (1005) and a riveting device (1010), and a crushing head (1011). The stop device (1005) and the riveting device (1010) flank the pallet (70) on opposite sides, while a stop (1006) of the stop device (1005) and the crushing head (1011) are translatable to approach the article from opposite sides during assembly.

A furniture drive includes a carrier and an actuating arm assembly arranged on the carrier and including a movably-supported actuating arm. The furniture drive also includes a spring device for applying a force to the actuating arm assembly, the spring device being connected to the actuating arm assembly via an engagement location, a transmission mechanism for transmitting a force of the spring device to the actuating arm assembly, and an adjustment device including a rotatably-supported adjustment element. A relative position of the engagement location can be adjusted by a rotation of the adjustment element. The furniture drive further includes an overload safety device configured to couple the adjustment element with the transmission mechanism upon rotation of the adjustment element with torque below a predetermined torque, and to decouple the adjustment element from the transmission mechanism upon rotation of the adjustment element with torque above the predetermined torque.

A furniture fitting includes a lever mechanism for moving a furniture part, the lever mechanism including a lever pivotally supported about a hinge axis, and the lever has a, in particular cylindrical, opening in which the hinge axis is arranged with a clearance. A force storage member, preferably including a spring device, is provided for applying a force to the lever mechanism. The hinge axis, upon a pivoting movement of the lever, is movable from a first bearing location within the opening to a second bearing location within the opening under the influence of the force storage member. A spring element pressurizes the hinge axis with a force at least in a direction extending transversely to a notional connecting line of the two bearing locations of the hinge axis within the opening of the lever.
