Definitions
- the present invention relates to an actuating arm drive for at least one pivotally mounted actuating arm with the features of the preamble of claim 1 and a piece of furniture with such an actuating arm drive.
- actuating arm drives for movable furniture parts are known in the prior art.
- Such actuating arm drives for movable furniture parts usually have at least one swivel arm which is connected to the movable furniture part and which is or are accommodated in a housing of the actuating arm drive.
- a disadvantage of conventional actuator arm drives known in the prior art is the increased space requirement of a housing designed to accommodate the lever of the actuator arm inside a piece of furniture with such an actuator arm drive. Levers of the actuating arm protruding from several sides of the housing can also prevent a user from reaching into the piece of furniture and pose a risk of injury.
- the object of the invention is to provide an actuating arm drive and a piece of furniture with an actuating arm drive in which the aforementioned disadvantages do not occur.
- the actuating arm drive has a plurality of levers which are articulated to one another and are at least partially housed in a housing which can be mounted on the piece of furniture, with those levers which act on or form the actuating arm protruding from an end face of the housing at least when the actuating arm drive is in the open position, with the levers protruding in the closed position of the actuating arm drive, at least two levers which are articulated to one another protrude from a longitudinal side of the housing, preferably directly adjoining the end face, with a seven-bar linkage kinematics being formed by the levers of the actuating arm drive, which are articulated to one another.
- the actuator can be used particularly advantageously for driving a swing-up flap of a piece of furniture.
- the object is achieved according to the invention in that, in the closed position of the actuating arm drive, one of the following levers: a lever that can be connected to the flap, a lever that is articulated to it, and a further lever that is articulated to this at the other end, the lever that can be connected to the flap, and the other levers are substantially parallel to each other.
- the closed position of the actuating arm corresponds to that Pivoted position of the several levers of the actuating arm, which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, in which, for example, the flap of a piece of furniture is in the closed position.
- the end face of the housing is to be understood as that side of the housing which is directed in the open position of the actuating arm drive in the direction of the opening of the piece of furniture or in a closed position of the actuating arm drive is directed to the inside of the flap of the piece of furniture.
- the levers which act on or form the actuating arm and are articulated to one another can have a nested or folded arrangement within one another or relative to one another. Due to the fact that at least two levers connected to one another in an articulated manner protrude from a longitudinal side of the housing, the housing can have a significantly smaller overall size than if the levers were completely accommodated in the housing when the actuating arm drive was in a closed position.
- the at least two levers which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, protrude from the end face of the housing.
- the long side of the housing is free of protruding parts or levers.
- This can have a positive effect on the visual appearance of the actuating arm drive and, on the other hand, enable unhindered intervention in a piece of furniture with such an actuating arm drive. Since the interior of a piece of furniture and the actuator arm drive itself are usually only visible to a user when the actuator drive is in the open position, such an actuator arm drive has a visually appealing and very space-saving design.
- the housing has a substantially rectangular shape in side view. This can result in a particularly compact design of the housing of the actuating arm drive.
- a rectangular shape of the housing can also allow the end faces and longitudinal sides of the housing to be configured in a straight line, which can make alignment and assembly easier, for example.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment of the actuating arm drive can be achieved by such a design of a seven-bar linkage kinematics.
- At least the main lever and/or one of the intermediate levers are profiled in cross-section, preferably profiled with a cross-sectional shape essentially corresponding to a U-profile.
- the design of the main lever which is profiled in cross section, makes it possible to achieve a particularly torsion-resistant and thus stable design of the actuating arm drive.
- the relevant levers can be designed essentially in one piece.
- the intermediate levers and/or the main lever and the intermediate levers are nested in one another.
- the space required for the levers acting on or forming the actuating arm may also be smaller.
- the intermediate levers overlap laterally to the direction of movement essentially without a gap. This allows a compact-acting appearance of the actuating arm drive and effective protection against jamming of a user's fingers can be achieved.
- the guide lever and the intermediate lever pivotably connected to it are nested in one another. By arranging these levers in a nested manner, the possible pivoting range and the space requirement of the actuating arm or of the actuating arm drive can be optimized.
- a cuboid housing is characterized by optimal usability of the interior of the housing and by rectilinear side and end faces.
- the length of the housing is less than or equal to 28 cm, preferably less than or equal to 25 cm, particularly preferably less than or equal to 19 cm.
- the actuating arm drive has an energy accumulator and the energy accumulator acts on at least one of the levers of the actuating arm drive that is pivotably mounted on the housing.
- a force accumulator can be used to exert a force on one of the levers pivotably mounted on the housing to support the opening and/or closing movement of the actuating arm drive.
- the energy accumulator can be designed in the form of at least one spring, which is installed lying in the housing in the installed position of the housing.
- the design of the force accumulator in the form of a spring makes this possible achieve a particularly simple and low-maintenance design of the energy store.
- the force accumulator can also be advantageous here for the force accumulator to act on the actuating arm drive via a reversing lever pivotably mounted on the housing.
- the introduction of the force to the actuating arm drive can be designed to be simple and, if necessary, adaptable by using different transmission ratios of the deflection lever.
- This also allows the shape, in particular the length, of the housing to be optimized for the dimensions of the energy accumulator.
- the actuating arm drive can be driven electrically, preferably by an electric motor.
- Protection is also sought for a piece of furniture with a furniture body, an actuating arm drive and at least one furniture flap. Provision can be made for at least one actuating arm drive to be fastened to the furniture body in an interior space formed by the furniture body and for the actuating arm drive to drive the at least one furniture flap of the furniture.
- the furniture body has a body cover and the actuating arm drive with the housing in the installed position in the furniture body is mounted directly adjacent to one long side of the housing, preferably at a distance of less than 2 cm, below the body cover.
- a positioned assembly position of the actuating arm drive in the furniture body makes it possible to achieve optimal use of space in the interior formed by the furniture body and a user to reach into it in a particularly unhindered manner.
- Fig. 1a shows a piece of furniture 3 with a furniture body 30 in the interior of which two actuating arm drives 1 are mounted below a body cover 31 .
- a movable flap 4 is fastened to the actuating arms 2 of the actuating arm drives 1 and is thus pivotably mounted on the furniture body 30 by means of the actuating arm drives 1 .
- the actuating arm drive 1 is fastened to the furniture body 30 via a housing 5 provided with a housing cover 55 .
- Fig. 1b shows a perspective view of a sectional view of the in Fig. 1a shown piece of furniture 3, wherein the actuating arm drive 1 is shown without the housing cover 55 of the housing 5.
- a flap 4 is attached to the actuating arm 2 of the actuating arm drive 1 .
- Figures 2a to 2d show the course of an opening movement - or, in reverse order, the course of a closing movement - of a piece of furniture 3 with a pivoted flap 4
- Figure 2a the closed position of the actuating arm drive 1 is shown, in which the furniture body 30 is closed off by the flap 4.
- the actuating arm drive 1 has a pivoted actuating arm 2 with a plurality of levers connected to one another in an articulated manner, parts of the main lever 6 pivoted on the housing 5, the intermediate lever 7 pivoted on the latter and a part of the support lever 10 designed to fasten the flap 4 you can see.
- the main lever 6 and the intermediate lever 7 connected to it in an articulated manner, as well as the supporting lever 10 protrude from a longitudinal side 52 of the housing 5 .
- the end face 51 of the housing 5 of the actuating arm drive 1 facing the inside of the flap 4 is free of protruding levers of the actuating arm 2 in the closed position of the embodiment shown and ends essentially flush with the furniture body 30 .
- the housing 5 of the actuating arm drive 1 has a front end face 51 adjoining the long side 52 and a further rear end face 56 adjoining the long side 52 .
- Figure 2a the essentially Z-shaped arrangement (dashed or broken lines) of the levers 6, 7, 10, which here partially protrude from the longitudinal side 52 of the housing 5, can be seen (see also Figure 7a ).
- Figure 2b shows a piece of furniture 3 with a partially open flap 4.
- the actuating arm 2 of the actuating arm drive 1 carrying the flap 4 is partially pivoted out of the closed position.
- they are articulated with one another connected lever of the actuating arm 2 partly out of the longitudinal side 52 of the housing 5 and partly out of the end face 51 of the housing 5.
- the interleaved intermediate levers 7, 8 and the supporting lever 10 pivotably mounted thereon are visible.
- the mounting plate 41 can be seen, which can be preassembled on the flap 4.
- the flap 4 can be fastened by means of the mounting plate 41 on the actuating arm 2, specifically on the support lever 10 of the actuating arm 2.
- the assembly of the flap 4 by means of the mounting plate 41 on the support lever 10 can be releasably fastened, for example by latching means 42 in the form of a clip mechanism. Further details on the mounting plate 41 are also the figures 7b and the figure 11 refer to.
- Figure 2c shows a piece of furniture 3 with a furniture flap 4 pivoted further in the direction of the open position.
- the actuating arm 2 carrying the flap 4 is pivoted further in the direction of the open position, so that now, in addition to the main lever 6 and the intermediate levers 7, 8, which are nested one inside the other, and the supporting lever 10 the guide lever 9 pivotably mounted on the housing 5 can also be seen.
- nested seven-bar linkage kinematics are formed by the levers.
- the long side 52 of the housing 5 is already free of protruding levers, which makes it much easier for a user to reach into the interior of the piece of furniture 3.
- the levers forming the actuating arm 2 therefore protrude only from the end face 51 of the housing 5 in this pivoted position of the actuating arm drive 1, which is close to the open position.
- a piece of furniture 3 with a fully open flap 4 is shown.
- the actuating arm 2 of the actuating arm drive 1 is in the open position, which is characterized in that the levers forming the actuating arm 2 protrude from the end face 51 of the housing 5 .
- the longitudinal side 52 of the housing 5 directly adjoining the end face 51 is free of protruding levers when the actuating arm drive 1 is in the open position.
- FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of an actuating arm drive 1 with the housing cover removed.
- the alignment of the actuating arm drive 1 essentially corresponds to the mounting position in a piece of furniture 3 shown in the previous figures housed on the housing 5 mounted deflection lever 13 and a pivotally connected to this transfer lever 14.
- the actuating arm drive 1 also has a damping device 24 for damping the pivoting movement of the actuating arm 2 during a closing movement.
- the actuator arm 2 is in the in 3 shown embodiment of the actuator arm drive 1 by a main lever 6 pivoted about a first pivot axis S1 on the housing 5, two intermediate levers 7, 8 pivoted on the main lever 6, a guide lever 9 pivoted on the second intermediate lever 8 and about a second pivot axis S2 on the housing 5 and a support lever 10 pivotably mounted on the intermediate levers 7, 8.
- the guide lever 9 is formed by a first lever 91 and a second lever 92 connected thereto, as well as a third lever 93 (not visible here).
- the main lever 6 and the first intermediate lever 7 have a profiled cross section corresponding essentially to a U-profile and are nested in one another.
- first intermediate lever 7 and the second intermediate lever 8 are nested in one another, as is also the case for the second intermediate lever 8 and the guide lever 9 .
- a force is applied to the main arm 6 by the force accumulator 11 via a force introduction element 16 .
- the force introduction element 16 is pivotably connected to the transmission lever 14 of the energy accumulator 11 and pivotally connected to the adjustment device 15 attached to the main lever 6 .
- the force introduction point x1 of the force introduction element 16 is on the main lever below the Located pivot axis S1, whereby a torque is effectively applied to the main lever 6 by the force accumulator 11, so that the actuating arm 2 is pivoted in the direction of the open position without external influence.
- Figure 4a shows a side view of an actuating arm drive 1 with the housing cover removed.
- the actuating arm 2 of the actuating arm drive 1 is in the closed position, with the force accumulator 11 acting via the transmission lever 14 on the main lever 6 of the actuating arm 2 in such a way that it is actively pushed into the closed position.
- the line of action of the force originating from the energy accumulator 11 runs along the transmission lever 14 in relation to the pivot axis S1 of the main lever 6 (above the pivot axis S1) in such a way that the main lever 6 is actively in the closed position is pivoted and held in this.
- the adjusting device 15 is in the form of a threaded spindle 20 rotatably mounted on the main arm 6 (see also Figure 5a ), a sliding block 21 mounted in the threaded spindle 20 and an essentially rectilinear guideway 22 in the main arm 6, and an intermediate piece 23 connected in an articulated manner to the sliding block 21 and the force introduction element 16.
- the threaded spindle 20, the sliding block 21 and the intermediate piece 23 are arranged at least partially in the interior of the profiled main lever 6.
- a contact contour 17 is formed on end faces 18 of the main lever 6 for contacting the force introduction element 16 , the adjusting device 15 being configured to adjust the force introduction element 16 along the contact contour 17 .
- an actuating arm drive 1 is shown with an actuating arm 2 partially pivoted out of the closed position. It is by comparison with the Figure 4a the nested structure of the lever of the actuating arm 2 forming a seven-joint kinematics can be seen.
- the line of action running along the transmission lever 14 of the force accumulator 11 runs on the main arm 6 force acting in relation to the pivot axis S1 of the main lever 6 (below the pivot axis S1) in such a way that the actuating arm 2 is pushed further in the direction of the open position.
- FIG Figure 4c an actuating arm drive 1 with an actuating arm 2 in the open position is shown.
- the levers forming the actuating arm 2 protrude from the end face 51 of the housing 5 of the actuating arm drive 1 .

- the third lever 93 has an indentation 26, by means of which the third lever 93 is pivoted or clipped onto the pivot pin 27 forming the pivot axis S1. It can be provided that the axle bolt 27 by the resiliently deformed lever 93 such are spread apart so that any radial play of the axle bolts 27 that may exist due to manufacturing tolerances can be compensated for in the bearing points of the housing 5 or the lever.
- first lever 91 and the third lever 93 are shown.

- the first lever 91 has two axle bores 25, the centers of which have a first standard distance d1.
- the axle bores 25 can have a slightly larger bore diameter than the axle bolts 27 provided for receiving them (not shown here).
- the third lever 93 which has a curved, wavy shape, also has two axle bores 25 in this embodiment, the centers of which, however, have a second standard distance d2 that differs from the first standard distance d1.
- the third lever 93 can be prestressed by stretching or compressing to the first standard distance d1, so that it retains its prestress when installed . This can lead to a stabilization of the guide lever 9 composed of the individual levers.

- FIGS 9 and 9a show a side and detailed view of a piece of furniture 3 with a substantially fully open flap 4, which as in detail A of Figure 9a the setting device 15 of the actuating arm drive 1 is in a second setting.
- the sliding block 21 mounted on the threaded spindle 20 is located at a second end of the guide track 22 facing the contact contour 17, whereby the existing connection of the sliding block 21 to the force introduction element 16 via the intermediate piece 23 brings the latter closer to one of the pivot axis S1 second force application point x2 is positioned along the contact contour 17.
- the torque exerted on the main lever 6 is minimal, which means that this setting is suitable for compensating for the weight of flaps 4 with a low dead weight.
- the contact contour 17 has a concavely curved profile, which runs essentially transversely to the line of action of the force from the energy accumulator 11 running along the transmission lever 14 and is inclined towards it.
- the curved design of the contact contour 17 can be achieved on the one hand that when the adjustment device 15 is adjusted - and the associated adjustment of the force acting on the main arm 6 from the Energy accumulator 11 - the spring preload of the spring 12 of the energy accumulator 11 remains essentially unchanged by a pivoting of the transmission lever 14 associated with adjustment of the adjustment device 15 .

- the investment contour 17 is curved, especially concave towards the line of action of the force, it can be achieved that the angle ⁇ enclosed by the line of action of the force in the force introduction point x2 and the inclination of the contact contour 17 illustrated by the tangent t2 is an acute angle (less than 90° ) is.
- FIG 11 a perspective view of a piece of furniture 3 with an actuating arm drive 1 mounted in the furniture body 30 is shown.
- the position of the actuating arm 2 of the actuating arm drive 1 shown corresponds to a partially open or partially closed position of the actuating arm drive 1.

Nachteilig an herkömmlichen im Stand der Technik bekannten Stellarmantrieben ist dabei der erhöhte Raumbedarf eines zur Aufnahme der Hebel des Stellarms ausgebildeten Gehäuses im Inneren eines Möbels mit einem solchen Stellarmantrieb. Aus mehreren Seiten des Gehäuses vorstehende Hebel des Stellarms können zudem für einen Benutzer ein Eingreifen in das Möbel behindern und ein Verletzungsrisiko darstellen.A disadvantage of conventional actuator arm drives known in the prior art is the increased space requirement of a housing designed to accommodate the lever of the actuator arm inside a piece of furniture with such an actuator arm drive. Levers of the actuating arm protruding from several sides of the housing can also prevent a user from reaching into the piece of furniture and pose a risk of injury.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist die Bereitstellung eines Stellarmantriebs und eines Möbels mit einem Stellarmantrieb, bei welchem die zuvor genannten Nachteile nicht auftreten.The object of the invention is to provide an actuating arm drive and a piece of furniture with an actuating arm drive in which the aforementioned disadvantages do not occur.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Stellarmantrieb mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und einem Möbel mit zumindest einem solchen Stellarmantrieb gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen definiert.This object is achieved by an actuating arm drive with the features of
Der Stellarmantrieb weist mehrere gelenkig miteinander verbundene Hebel auf, die zumindest teilweise in einem am Möbel montierbaren Gehäuse untergebracht sind, wobei jene Hebel, die den Stellarm beaufschlagen oder ausbilden, zumindest in der Offenstellung des Stellarmantriebes aus einer Stirnseite des Gehäuses vorstehen, wobei in der Schließstellung des Stellarmantriebes zumindest zwei gelenkig miteinander verbundene Hebel aus einer, vorzugsweise direkt an die Stirnseite anschließenden, Längsseite des Gehäuses vorstehen, wobei von den gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Hebeln des Stellarmantriebes eine Siebengelenk-Kinematik ausgebildet wird. Dadurch dass von den gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Hebeln des Stellarmantriebs eine Siebengelenk-Kinematik ausgebildet wird, kann der Stellantrieb besonders vorteilhaft zum Antrieb einer Hochschwenkklappe eines Möbels verwendet werden.The actuating arm drive has a plurality of levers which are articulated to one another and are at least partially housed in a housing which can be mounted on the piece of furniture, with those levers which act on or form the actuating arm protruding from an end face of the housing at least when the actuating arm drive is in the open position, with the levers protruding in the closed position of the actuating arm drive, at least two levers which are articulated to one another protrude from a longitudinal side of the housing, preferably directly adjoining the end face, with a seven-bar linkage kinematics being formed by the levers of the actuating arm drive, which are articulated to one another. The fact that one of the articulated levers of the actuating arm drive Seven-joint kinematics is formed, the actuator can be used particularly advantageously for driving a swing-up flap of a piece of furniture.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass in der Schließstellung des Stellarmantriebes von den folgenden genannten Hebeln: ein mit der Klappe verbindbarer Hebel, ein mit diesem gelenkig verbundener Hebel und ein mit diesem am anderen Ende gelenkig verbundener weiterer Hebel der mit der Klappe verbindbare Hebel und der weitere Hebel im Wesentlichen parallel zueinander liegen. Die Schließstellung des Stellarms entspricht dabei jener Schwenkstellung der mehreren gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Hebel des Stellarms, in welchem sich beispielsweise die Klappe eines Möbels in der geschlossenen Stellung befindet. Unter der Stirnseite des Gehäuses ist dabei jene Gehäuseseite zu verstehen, die in der Offenstellung des Stellarmantriebs in Richtung der Öffnung des Möbels gerichtet ist bzw. in einer Schließstellung des Stellarmantriebs zur Innenseite der Klappe des Möbels gerichtet ist. Die den Stellarm beaufschlagenden oder ausbildenden gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Hebel können in der Schließstellung des Stellarmantriebs eine verschachtelte bzw. gefaltete Anordnung ineinander bzw. zueinander aufweisen. Dadurch, dass zumindest zwei gelenkig miteinander verbundene Hebel aus einer Längsseite des Gehäuses vorstehen, kann das Gehäuse eine deutlich geringere Baugröße aufweisen, als bei einer vollständigen Aufnahme der Hebel im Gehäuse bei einer Schließstellung des Stellarmantriebs.The object is achieved according to the invention in that, in the closed position of the actuating arm drive, one of the following levers: a lever that can be connected to the flap, a lever that is articulated to it, and a further lever that is articulated to this at the other end, the lever that can be connected to the flap, and the other levers are substantially parallel to each other. The closed position of the actuating arm corresponds to that Pivoted position of the several levers of the actuating arm, which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, in which, for example, the flap of a piece of furniture is in the closed position. The end face of the housing is to be understood as that side of the housing which is directed in the open position of the actuating arm drive in the direction of the opening of the piece of furniture or in a closed position of the actuating arm drive is directed to the inside of the flap of the piece of furniture. In the closed position of the actuating arm drive, the levers which act on or form the actuating arm and are articulated to one another can have a nested or folded arrangement within one another or relative to one another. Due to the fact that at least two levers connected to one another in an articulated manner protrude from a longitudinal side of the housing, the housing can have a significantly smaller overall size than if the levers were completely accommodated in the housing when the actuating arm drive was in a closed position.
Dabei kann weiter vorteilhaft sein, dass in der Offenstellung des Stellarmantriebs die zumindest zwei gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Hebel aus der Stirnseite des Gehäuses vorstehen. Dadurch kann einerseits erreicht werden, dass die Längsseite des Gehäuses frei von vorstehenden Teilen bzw. Hebeln ist. Dies kann sich positiv auf die optische Erscheinung des Stellarmantriebs auswirken und andererseits ein ungehindertes Eingreifen in ein Möbel mit einem solchen Stellarmantrieb ermöglichen. Da der Innenraum eines Möbels und der Stellarmantrieb selbst gewöhnlich nur in der Offenstellung des Stellarantriebs für einen Benutzer sichtbar sind, besitzt ein solcher Stellarmantrieb eine optisch ansprechende und sehr raumsparende Ausgestaltung.It can also be advantageous that in the open position of the actuating arm drive, the at least two levers, which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, protrude from the end face of the housing. As a result, on the one hand it can be achieved that the long side of the housing is free of protruding parts or levers. This can have a positive effect on the visual appearance of the actuating arm drive and, on the other hand, enable unhindered intervention in a piece of furniture with such an actuating arm drive. Since the interior of a piece of furniture and the actuator arm drive itself are usually only visible to a user when the actuator drive is in the open position, such an actuator arm drive has a visually appealing and very space-saving design.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Gehäuse in Seitenansicht eine im Wesentlichen rechteckige Form aufweist. Dadurch kann sich eine besonders kompakte Bauform des Gehäuses des Stellarmantriebs ergeben. Eine rechteckige Form des Gehäuses kann zudem eine geradlinig verlaufende Ausbildung der Stirnflächen und Längsseiten des Gehäuses ermöglichen, wodurch sich beispielsweise die Ausrichtung und Montage erleichtern lassen kann.It can be provided that the housing has a substantially rectangular shape in side view. This can result in a particularly compact design of the housing of the actuating arm drive. A rectangular shape of the housing can also allow the end faces and longitudinal sides of the housing to be configured in a straight line, which can make alignment and assembly easier, for example.
Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Siebengelenkkinematik einen um eine erste Schwenkachse am Gehäuse schwenkbar gelagerten Haupthebel, zwei am Haupthebel schwenkbar gelagerte Zwischenhebel, einen an einem der Zwischenhebel und um eine zweite Schwenkachse am Gehäuse schwenkbar gelagerten Führungshebel und einen an den Zwischenhebeln schwenkbar gelagerten Traghebel aufweist. Durch eine solche Ausbildung einer Siebengelenk-Kinematik kann eine besonders vorteilhafte Ausführung des Stellarmantriebs erreicht werden.Provision can be made for the seven-bar linkage kinematics to have a main lever pivoted about a first pivot axis on the housing, two intermediate levers pivoted on the main lever, a guide lever pivoted on one of the intermediate levers and pivoted about a second pivot axis on the housing, and a support lever pivoted on the intermediate levers . A particularly advantageous embodiment of the actuating arm drive can be achieved by such a design of a seven-bar linkage kinematics.
Dabei kann weiter vorteilhaft sein, dass zumindest der Haupthebel und/oder einer der Zwischenhebel im Querschnitt profiliert, vorzugsweise mit einer im Wesentlichen einem U-Profil entsprechenden Querschnittsform profiliert, ausgebildet sind. Durch die im Querschnitt profilierte Ausbildung des Haupthebels kann eine besonders verwindungssteife und somit stabile Ausbildung des Stellarmantriebs erreicht werden. Bei einer im Wesentlichen einem U-Profil entsprechenden Querschnittsform können die betreffenden Hebel im Wesentlichen einstückig ausgebildet werden.It can also be advantageous that at least the main lever and/or one of the intermediate levers are profiled in cross-section, preferably profiled with a cross-sectional shape essentially corresponding to a U-profile. The design of the main lever, which is profiled in cross section, makes it possible to achieve a particularly torsion-resistant and thus stable design of the actuating arm drive. In the case of a cross-sectional shape corresponding essentially to a U-profile, the relevant levers can be designed essentially in one piece.
Von Vorteil kann dabei auch sein, dass die Zwischenhebel und/oder der Haupthebel und die Zwischenhebel ineinander verschachtelt sind. Bei einer verschachtelten Anordnung der Hebel kann es zusätzlich zu einem geringeren Raumbedarf der den Stellarm beaufschlagenden oder ausbildenden Hebel kommen.It can also be advantageous that the intermediate levers and/or the main lever and the intermediate levers are nested in one another. In the case of a nested arrangement of the levers, the space required for the levers acting on or forming the actuating arm may also be smaller.
Weiter kann dabei vorteilhaft sein, dass sich die Zwischenhebel lateral zur Bewegungsrichtung im Wesentlichen spaltfrei überlappen. Dadurch kann ein kompakt wirkendes Aussehen des Stellarmantriebs sowie ein effektiver Schutz gegen ein Verklemmen von Fingern eines Benutzers erreicht werden.Furthermore, it can be advantageous that the intermediate levers overlap laterally to the direction of movement essentially without a gap. This allows a compact-acting appearance of the actuating arm drive and effective protection against jamming of a user's fingers can be achieved.
Auch kann vorteilhaft sein, dass der Führungshebel und der schwenkbar mit diesem verbundene Zwischenhebel ineinander verschachtelt sind. Durch eine verschachtelte Anordnung dieser Hebel kann der mögliche Schwenkbereich sowie der Raumbedarf des Stellarms bzw. des Stellarmantriebs optimiert werden.It can also be advantageous that the guide lever and the intermediate lever pivotably connected to it are nested in one another. By arranging these levers in a nested manner, the possible pivoting range and the space requirement of the actuating arm or of the actuating arm drive can be optimized.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Form des Gehäuses im Wesentlichen quaderförmig ausgebildet ist. Ein quaderförmiges Gehäuse zeichnet sich durch optimale Ausnutzbarkeit des Innenbereichs des Gehäuses sowie durch geradlinig verlaufende Seiten- bzw. Stirnflächen aus.Provision can be made for the shape of the housing to be essentially cuboid. A cuboid housing is characterized by optimal usability of the interior of the housing and by rectilinear side and end faces.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Höhenerstreckung des Gehäuses kleiner, vorzugsweise im Wesentlichen um die Hälfte kleiner, als die Längserstreckung des Gehäuses ist.Provision can be made for the height of the housing to be less than, preferably essentially half, the length of the housing.
Es kann weiter vorgesehen sein, dass die Längserstreckung des Gehäuses kleiner oder gleich 28 cm, bevorzugt kleiner oder gleich 25cm, besonders bevorzugt kleiner oder gleich 19 cm, ist.It can further be provided that the length of the housing is less than or equal to 28 cm, preferably less than or equal to 25 cm, particularly preferably less than or equal to 19 cm.
Als vorteilhaft hat sich weiter erwiesen, dass der Stellarmantrieb einen Kraftspeicher aufweist und der Kraftspeicher auf zumindest einen der schwenkbar am Gehäuse gelagerten Hebel des Stellarmantriebs wirkt. Durch einen Kraftspeicher kann auf einen der schwenkbar am Gehäuse gelagerten Hebel eine Kraft zur Unterstützung der Öffnungs- und/oder Schließbewegung des Stellarmantriebs ausgeübt werden.It has also proven to be advantageous that the actuating arm drive has an energy accumulator and the energy accumulator acts on at least one of the levers of the actuating arm drive that is pivotably mounted on the housing. A force accumulator can be used to exert a force on one of the levers pivotably mounted on the housing to support the opening and/or closing movement of the actuating arm drive.
Dabei kann vorteilhaft sein, dass der Kraftspeicher in Form zumindest einer Feder ausgebildet ist, die in Montagelage des Gehäuses liegend im Gehäuse eingebaut ist. Durch die Ausbildung des Kraftspeichers in Form einer Feder lässt sich eine besonders einfache und wartungsarme Ausführung des Kraftspeichers erreichen. Durch den in Montagelage des Gehäuses liegenden Einbau der Feder lässt sich eine besonders vorteilhafte Form und Lage des Gehäuses erreichen.In this case, it can be advantageous for the energy accumulator to be designed in the form of at least one spring, which is installed lying in the housing in the installed position of the housing. The design of the force accumulator in the form of a spring makes this possible achieve a particularly simple and low-maintenance design of the energy store. By installing the spring in the installed position of the housing, a particularly advantageous shape and position of the housing can be achieved.
Auch kann dabei vorteilhaft sein, dass der Kraftspeicher über einen schwenkbar am Gehäuse gelagerten Umlenkhebel auf den Stellarmantrieb wirkt. Dadurch lässt sich die Einleitung der Kraft auf den Stellarmantrieb einfach und gegebenenfalls durch Ausnutzung verschiedener Übersetzungen des Umlenkhebels anpassbar gestalten. Auch kann sich dadurch die Form, insbesondere die Länge, des Gehäuses auf die Abmessungen des Kraftspeichers optimieren lassen.It can also be advantageous here for the force accumulator to act on the actuating arm drive via a reversing lever pivotably mounted on the housing. As a result, the introduction of the force to the actuating arm drive can be designed to be simple and, if necessary, adaptable by using different transmission ratios of the deflection lever. This also allows the shape, in particular the length, of the housing to be optimized for the dimensions of the energy accumulator.
Prinzipiell kann es möglich sein, dass der Stellarmantrieb elektrisch, vorzugsweise durch einen Elektromotor, angetrieben ist.In principle, it can be possible for the actuating arm drive to be driven electrically, preferably by an electric motor.
Schutz wird auch begehrt für ein Möbel mit einem Möbelkorpus, einem Stellarmantrieb und zumindest einer Möbelklappe. Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass zumindest ein Stellarmantrieb in einem vom Möbelkorpus ausgebildeten Innenraum des Möbels am Möbelkorpus befestigt ist und dass der Stellarmantrieb die zumindest eine Möbelklappe des Möbels antreibt.Protection is also sought for a piece of furniture with a furniture body, an actuating arm drive and at least one furniture flap. Provision can be made for at least one actuating arm drive to be fastened to the furniture body in an interior space formed by the furniture body and for the actuating arm drive to drive the at least one furniture flap of the furniture.
Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Möbelkorpus einen Korpusdeckel aufweist und der Stellarmantrieb mit dem Gehäuse in Montagelage im Möbelkorpus mit einer Längsseite des Gehäuses direkt benachbart, vorzugsweise mit einem Abstand von weniger als 2 cm, unterhalb des Korpusdeckels montiert ist. Durch eine derart positionierte Montagelage des Stellarmantriebs im Möbelkorpus kann eine optimale Raumausnutzung des vom Möbelkorpus ausgebildeten Innenraums und ein besonders hindernisfreies Eingreifen in diesen durch einen Benutzer erreicht werden.It can be provided that the furniture body has a body cover and the actuating arm drive with the housing in the installed position in the furniture body is mounted directly adjacent to one long side of the housing, preferably at a distance of less than 2 cm, below the body cover. Such a positioned assembly position of the actuating arm drive in the furniture body makes it possible to achieve optimal use of space in the interior formed by the furniture body and a user to reach into it in a particularly unhindered manner.
