Abstract

A wall for a furniture carcass has a panel-type core arranged between two laterally positioned cover layers. The core has a cut-out extending at least along one section of an end face of the wall and is used to receive a fitting that guides a movable furniture part. The fitting rests at least against one of the cover layers.

Claims (39)

1. A wall for a furniture body, the wall comprising:

a panel-shaped core arranged between two laterally positioned cover layers, wherein

the panel-shaped core has a recess extending at least along a section of an end face of the wall and receives a fitting that guides a movable furniture part,

the fitting rests against at least one of the two laterally positioned cover layers and is connected to the panel-shaped core and/or at least one of the two laterally positioned cover layers,

the panel-shaped core has a reduced thickness along an edge of the recess on at least one side in such a way that a bung spring facing towards the recess is formed, which bung spring projects into the fitting that guides the moveable furniture part, and

the fitting comprises a lever mechanism, which includes a coupling for fixing the fitting to the moveable furniture part and which guides the movable furniture part.

2. The wall of claim 1 , wherein the fitting rests against both of the two laterally positioned cover layers.

3. The wall of claim 1 , wherein the fitting has two parallel side plates between which a gap is formed at least in sections along one edge, into which the bung spring projects.

4. The wall of claim 3 , wherein screws or clamps connect the two parallel side plates to the panel-shaped core.

5. The wall of claim 4 , wherein heads of the screws or overlapping sections of the clamps are arranged between the two parallel side plates and two laterally positioned cover layers.

6. The wall of claim 5 , wherein the heads of the screws or the overlapping sections of the clamps are recessed in the two parallel side plates.

7. The wall of claim 3 , wherein staples projecting from the two parallel side plates connect the two parallel side plates to the panel-shaped core.

8. The wall of claim 1 , wherein the fitting is bonded to the panel-shaped core and/or at least one of the two laterally positioned cover layers.

9. The wall of claim 1 , wherein connecting elements are formed from the panel-shaped core adjacent to the recess and engage into the fitting, and wherein the fitting has side plates with recesses, the recesses of the side plates forming mating contours into which the connecting elements engage.

10. The wall of claim 9 , wherein the fitting is bonded to the panel-shaped core and/or at least one of the two laterally positioned cover layers.

11. The wall of claim 1 , wherein the fitting has two parallel side plates having a spacing corresponding to a thickness of the core.

12. The wall of claim 1 , wherein the lever mechanism is located between the two laterally positioned cover layers in a closed state of the movable part of the furniture.

13. The wall of claim 12 , wherein the side plates have an adjustment unit with which thickness compensation to the core is performed.

14. The wall of claim 1 , wherein one of the end faces of the panel-shaped core is covered by at least one edge band.

15. The wall of claim 14 , wherein the at least one edge band is arranged at least in sections on the fitting.

16. A method for manufacturing a wall for a furniture body, the method comprising:

providing a panel-shaped core;

introducing a recess into the panel-shaped core, the recess extending along at least a section of an end face of the panel-shaped core;

forming, in the panel-shaped core, a reduced thickness along an edge of the recess on at least one side in such a way that a bung spring facing towards the recess is formed;

applying two lateral cover layers to the panel-shaped core;

wherein the recess is milled out of the panel-shaped core with a milling tool from a side surface of the panel-shaped core;

wherein a fitting is inserted into the recess before at least one of the two lateral cover layers is applied to the panel-shaped core in such a way that the bung spring projects into the fitting;

wherein the fitting is screwed, clamped, and/or glued to the panel-shaped core before the at least one of the two lateral cover layers is applied to the panel-shaped core; and

wherein the fitting comprises a lever mechanism, which includes a coupling for fixing the fitting to the moveable furniture part and which guides the movable furniture part.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the fitting is inserted and connected to the panel-shaped core before the two lateral cover layers are applied.

18. A piece of furniture or a furniture body, comprising:

at least one wall, which comprises

a panel-shaped core arranged between two laterally positioned cover layers, wherein

the panel-shaped core has a recess extending at least along a section of an end face of the wall and receives a fitting that guides a movable furniture part,

the fitting rests against at least one of the two laterally positioned cover layers and is connected to the panel-shaped core and/or at least one of the two laterally positioned cover layers,

the panel-shaped core has a reduced thickness along an edge of the recess on at least one side in such a way that a bung spring facing towards the recess is formed, which bung spring projects into the fitting that guides the moveable furniture part, and

the fitting comprises a lever mechanism, coupled to the moveable furniture part, that guides the movable furniture part.

19. The piece of furniture or furniture body of claim 18 , wherein the at least one wall is a side wall or a partition wall.

20. The piece of furniture or furniture body of claim 18 , wherein the fitting is a flap fitting or a door fitting.
