6 . The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the guide system or the guide device includes at least one guide rail for guiding the movable furniture part in a direction extending parallel to the furniture wall, wherein at least one running wheel connected to the movable furniture part is displaceable along the at least one guide rail.
7 . The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the guide system includes at least one guide rail configured to guide the movable furniture part along a front face of a furniture carcass.
8 . The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the guide system includes an adjustment device configured to adjust the predetermined distance between the movable furniture part and the furniture wall.
9 . The guide system according to claim 8 , wherein the adjustment device includes at least one rotatable adjustment wheel.
10 . The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the movable furniture part is movable by the guide system between a first position, in which the movable furniture part is aligned substantially parallel to the furniture wall, and a second position, in which the movable furniture part is aligned substantially perpendicular to the furniture wall.
11 . The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the guide system includes at least one carrier configured to pivotally support the movable furniture part.
12 . The guide system according to claim 11 , wherein the at least one carrier is movable in a direction extending parallel to at least one furniture wall.
13 . An item of furniture comprising:
a furniture carcass;
a movable furniture part; and
the guide system according to claim 1 for guiding the movable furniture part relative to the furniture carcass.
14 . The item of furniture according to claim 13 , wherein the item of furniture includes an insertion compartment for at least partially receiving the movable furniture part.
15 . The item of furniture according to claim 14 , wherein:
the insertion compartment extends in a depth direction of the item of furniture; or
the insertion compartment is defined by two mutually spaced furniture walls connected to each other by at least one spacer member; or
the insertion compartment is defined by two mutually spaced furniture walls, wherein the movable furniture part is movable about a frontal vertical corner of one of the two mutually spaced furniture walls upon a movement into the insertion compartment, and the gliding device is arranged on the other of the two mutually spaced furniture walls.
16 . The item of furniture according to claim 15 , wherein:
the insertion compartment is defined by the two mutually spaced furniture walls connected to each other by the at least one spacer member, and a guide element of the guide device is arranged on the at least one spacer member; or
the at least one insertion compartment is defined by the two mutually spaced furniture walls and the movable furniture part is movable about the frontal vertical corner of the one of the two mutually spaced furniture walls upon a movement into the insertion compartment, and the gliding device is arranged on the other of the two mutually spaced furniture walls and adjacent to a frontal vertical corner of the other of the two mutually spaced furniture walls.
17 . The item of furniture according to claim 13 , wherein the gliding device is arranged approximately at half of a height of the movable furniture part.
18 . The item of furniture according to claim 13 , wherein the item of furniture includes at least two door wings hingedly connected to each other, the at least two door wings being movable by the guide system relative to the furniture carcass between a first position, in which the at least two door wings are aligned substantially parallel to each other, and at least a second position, in which the at least two door wings are aligned substantially coplanar to each other.
