A furniture hinge includes a first fitting portion, a second fitting portion, and a hinge axis hingedly connecting the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion. The fitting portions are movable between a first position, in which the furniture parts are aligned substantially coplanar to one another, and a second position, in which the furniture parts are aligned substantially parallel to one another. A cover can at least partially cover a gap formed between the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion, and a movement of the cover can be coupled to a movement of the furniture hinge. The first fitting portion and/or the second fitting portion includes an abutment, and the cover includes a counter-abutment. Upon a relative movement of the fitting portions, the abutment abuts against the counter-abutment. The cover, due to the abutment bearing against the counter-abutment, can be moved about the hinge axis.

A servomechanism for sliding doors of furniture item is described. An eddy-currents magnetic damper (80) to dampen the door is used to brake two carriages (26) mounted slidingly on the linear guides (20) for slidingly supporting the door.

A furniture item (MC) is described comprising a body defining a compartment (20) with a front opening, a leaf (32) which is slidable and oscillating to close the front opening, and an L-shaped guide (50) comprising two linear segments (52, 54) connected together. The leaf can be moved by a command member (60) translatable parallelly to—and along—said outer side.

An ejecting device for a folding door is movably arranged on a furniture body. First and second door leaves of the folding door are interconnected in an articulated manner. The ejecting device has an ejecting element for folding open the folding door from a closed position, in which the door leaves are in a common closed plane, into an open position, in which the door leaves form an angle not equal to 180°. The ejecting device has a first fitting part for mounting the ejecting device on the first door leaf. The ejecting element can move the second door leaf from the closed position into the open position by a scissor mechanism having at least two scissor levers, and is mounted between the first and second door leaves by an articulated connection formed by an intermediate lever connected in an articulated manner to the first and/or second scissor lever.

A stamping tool may include a base and a cover. The cover is removably affixed to the base through a hinging assembly. The base can include a first base hinge and a second base hinge substantially perpendicular to the first base hinge. The base hinges can include hinge sections. The hinge sections can include a first wall and a second wall that can be biased to define a cavity that is accessible through a channel between the first wall and the second wall. Hinge sections can be separated by one or more receptacles. The cover can include one or more hinge bars corresponding to the hinge sections on the base. The hinge bars can have an unequal aspect ratio allowing for easy insertion and removal of the cover. The cover can also include one or more protrusions separating the hinge bars. These protrusions correspond to the receptacles on the base.

An item of furniture includes a first furniture part, a second furniture part, and furniture hinges for pivotally connecting the first furniture part and the second furniture part. The furniture hinges are spaced apart from each other along a longitudinal direction of the first furniture part and the second furniture part, and a gap is defined between the first furniture part and the second furniture part. A cover portion extends at least between the furniture hinges so that the gap can be at least partially covered. The first furniture part and the second furniture part can be moved by the furniture hinges into a position in which the first furniture part and the second furniture part are aligned so as to be substantially coplanar relative to each other whereby the cover portion is substantially covered by the first furniture part and/or the second furniture part.

A fitting for a folding door arranged on a furniture carcass has at least one first door leaf and a second door leaf connected thereto in a jointed manner. The fitting has a contact part arranged on the first or second door leaf, and the contact part is movably arranged between a contact position and a rest position on the first or second door leaf. In a closed position of the folding door, the contact part in the contact position can be brought into contact with the furniture carcass or a component of the furniture carcass and, in an open position of the folding door, the contact part in the rest position is movable in an intermediate chamber between the first and the second door leaf.

A locking device for releasably locking two furniture parts that can move relative to one another against the force of a force accumulator, includes a heart-shaped locking contour with a heart-shaped depression and a locking element, and can move relative to the heart-shaped locking contour and, in a locking position, can be arranged in the heart-shaped depression of the heart-shaped locking contour. The locking element can be moved, by a motion out of the locking position into a further pushed position, out of the heart-shaped depression into a release position, and the locking device has a push-through depression separate from the heart-shaped depression, in which the at least one locking element can be arranged and at least one blocking contour which blocks movement of the at least one locking element out of the push-through depression into the heart-shaped depression.

A guide assembly for guiding at least one sliding door or folding sliding door relative to a stationary furniture part, includes a guide rail to be secured on the stationary furniture part; a guide device having a running mechanism that can be moveably mounted on the guide rail and having a securing device for securing the guide device on the sliding door or folding sliding door; and at least two retaining devices, each having a mounting section for mounting the retaining devices on a frame and an engaging mechanism. The retaining devices can be secured on the guide rail by the engaging mechanism, and at least one, preferably both, of the at least two retaining devices has a sheet metal bent part, preferably consisting of the sheet metal bent part.

A guide system for a door assembly including a door, which door can be attached to the guide system in a pivotal manner, has a closed position in which at least one device object can be covered on the front side and a parked position in which the door can be moved, preferably slid, in a direction transversely to the front of the at least one device object, preferably into a lateral receiving shaft, by the guide system. The guide system for the door is assembled or formed on a support structure separate from the device object to be covered, the support structure having at least one stand surface for standing on the floor of a room and/or at least one assembly device for assembling on the wall of a room.
