Actuator for movable furniture parts
An actuating drive for moving a movable furniture part includes at least one actuating arm pivotally mounted about a pivoting axis for moving the movable furniture part, a spring device for applying a force to the actuating arm, and a transmission mechanism for transmitting a force of the spring device to the actuating arm. The transmission mechanism includes an actuating portion motionally coupled to the actuating arm, a setting contour arranged on the actuating portion, and a pressure portion pressurized by the spring device. The pressure portion is displaceable along the setting contour upon a movement of the actuating arm. An adjustment device is provided by which a position of the setting contour relative to the actuating portion can be adjusted.
1. An actuating drive for moving a movable furniture part,
said actuating drive comprising:
an actuating arm which is pivotally mounted about a pivoting axis for moving the movable furniture part,
a spring device for applying a force to the actuating arm,
a transmission mechanism for transmitting the force of the spring device to the actuating arm, the transmission mechanism including:
an actuating portion which is motionally coupled to the actuating arm;
a setting contour arranged on the actuating portion; and
a pressure portion which is pressurized by the spring device, the pressure portion being displaceable along the setting contour upon a movement of the actuating arm; and
an adjustment device configured to adjust a position of the setting contour relative to the actuating portion so as to adjust a maximum level of an amount of the force of the spring device transmitted to the actuating arm.
2. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the adjustment device has an automatic locking configuration.
3. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the adjustment device is configured to continuously adjust a position of the setting contour.
4. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the adjustment device is configured to convert a rotational movement of an adjustment wheel into a longitudinal movement of the setting contour.
5. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the actuating portion has a guide along which the setting contour is adjustably arranged, wherein a guide element connected to the setting contour is adjustably arranged along the guide.
6. The actuating drive according to claim 5 , further comprising a spring element configured to press the guide element of the setting contour against the guide of the actuating portion.
7. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the adjustment device, is configured to variably adjust pre-stressing of the spring device and/or torque progression acting on the actuating arm.
8. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the spring device includes a helical spring.
9. The actuating drive according to claim 8 , wherein the helical spring is a compression spring.
10. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the pressure portion is in the form of a pivotally mounted pressure roller.
11. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the actuating portion includes two or more components connected to one another.
12. The actuating drive according to claim 1 , wherein the setting contour includes two or more discs connected to one another.
13. An arrangement comprising a movable furniture part and the actuating drive according to claim 1 for moving the movable furniture part.
14. An actuating drive for moving a movable furniture part, said actuating drive comprising:
an actuating arm which is pivotally mounted about a pivoting axis for moving the movable furniture part,
a spring device for applying a force to the actuating arm,
a transmission mechanism for transmitting the force of the spring device to the actuating arm, the transmission mechanism including:
an actuating portion which is motionally coupled to the actuating arm;
a setting contour arranged on the actuating portion; and
a pressure portion which is pressurized by the spring device, the pressure portion being displaceable along the setting contour upon a movement of the actuating arm; and
an adjustment device configured to adjust a position of the setting contour relative to the actuating portion so as to adjust the force of the spring device transmitted to the actuating arm;
wherein the adjustment device is configured to convert a rotational movement of an adjustment wheel into a longitudinal movement of the setting contour, and
wherein the adjustment device includes a bearing portion to be driven along a threaded section by rotating the adjustment wheel, the setting contour being movement-coupled to the bearing portion.
15. The actuating drive according to claim 14 , wherein the threaded section is arranged in a play-free manner in an axial direction by a wedge element which is acted upon by a spring element.
