Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to a pull-out guide for a movable furniture part, including at least one rail horizontal in the installed position, and a drive element for a drive device for the movable furniture part, and the drive element can be fastened on the rail, in particular detachably fastened. The driver element can be brought from a release position in a fixing position with the rail by a fastening movement of the drive element, the fastening movement being carried out in the horizontal plane.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An extension guide for a movable furniture part, comprising: a rail which is oriented horizontally in the mounting position, the rail having a connecting counterpart; and an entrainment member for a drive device for driving the movable furniture part, the entrainment member configured to be detachably fastened on the rail the entrainment member to be brought from a release position into a fixing position with the rail by a fastening movement of the entrainment member, the fastening movement being carried out in a horizontal plane, wherein the entrainment member has a connecting part corresponding to the connecting counterpart of the rail, the connecting part forming a pivot axis, the entrainment member being pivotably supported on the rail about the pivot axis, and wherein the entrainment member comprises a holding plate, the connecting part being formed on the holding plate, and the connecting counterpart being formed as a keyhole-like recess. 2. The extension guide according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening movement is carried out only in the horizontal plane. 3. The extension guide according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening movement is carried out in a direction transverse to a longitudinal direction of the rail. 4. The extension guide according to claim 3 , wherein the fastening movement is carried out in a direction at an angle of 90° to the longitudinal direction of the rail. 5. The extension guide according to claim 1 , wherein the entrainment member comprises an entrainment bolt and a holding plate. 6. The extension guide according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting part comprises a narrow, vertically-oriented neck portion and a broad head portion, the connecting part being configured such that, in the fixing position, the connecting part rests on the connecting counterpart via the head region. 7. The extension guide according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting part is a first connecting part and the connecting counterpart is a first connecting counterpart, a second connecting part is formed on the entrainment member, and a second connecting counterpart corresponding to the second connecting part is formed on the rail. 8. The extension guide according to claim 7 , wherein, in the fixing position, the second connecting part is in a friction-type jammed connection with the second connection counterpart. 9. The extension guide according to claim 1 , wherein the rail is a carcass rail. 10. An arrangement comprising the extension guide according to claim 1 and a drive device for driving the movable furniture part. 11. The arrangement according to claim 10 , wherein the drive device is an ejection device. 12. The arrangement according to claim 11 , wherein the entrainment member is an ejection entrainment member configured to contact the ejection device at least during a portion of an ejection movement. 13. The arrangement according to claim 11 , wherein the ejection device is fastened to a drawer rail of the extension guide. 14. An item of furniture comprising an arrangement according to claim 10 . 15. An item of furniture comprising the extension guide according to claim 1 . 16. An extension guide for a movable furniture part, comprising: a rail which is oriented horizontally in the mounting position, the rail having a connecting counterpart; and an entrainment member for a drive device for driving the movable furniture part, the entrainment member configured to be detachably fastened on the rail the entrainment member to be brought from a release position into a fixing position with the rail by a fastening movement of the entrainment member, the fastening movement being carried out in a horizontal plane, wherein the entrainment member has a connecting part corresponding to the connecting counterpart of the rail, the connecting part forming a pivot axis, the entrainment member being pivotably supported on the rail about the pivot axis; wherein the connecting part is a first connecting part and the connecting counterpart is a first connecting counterpart, a second connecting part is formed on the entrainment member, and a second connecting counterpart corresponding to the second connecting part is formed on the rail; and wherein the second connecting part is configured such that, during the fastening movement, the second connecting part is insertable by a swiveling movement in the horizontal plane into the second connecting counterpart. 17. An extension guide for a movable furniture part, comprising: a rail which is oriented horizontally in the mounting position, the rail having a connecting counterpart; and an entrainment member for a drive device for driving the movable furniture part, the entrainment member configured to be detachably fastened on the rail the entrainment member to be brought from a release position into a fixing position with the rail by a fastening movement of the entrainment member, the fastening movement being carried out in a horizontal plane, wherein the entrainment member has a connecting part corresponding to the connecting counterpart of the rail, the connecting part forming a pivot axis, the entrainment member being pivotably supported on the rail about the pivot axis; and wherein the rail is formed from a bent sheet metal with a specific sheet metal thickness, a holding plate of the entrainment member being attached to the underside of the rail in the fixing position and projecting for a maximum of one sheet metal thickness in a vertical direction from an underside of the rail. 18. The extension guide according to claim 17 , wherein the holding plate abuts the underside of the rail in a zonally planar configuration. 19. An extension guide for a movable furniture part, comprising: a rail which is oriented horizontally in the mounting position, the rail having a connecting counterpart; and an entrainment member for a drive device for driving the movable furniture part, the entrainment member configured to be detachably fastened on the rail the entrainment member to be brought from a release position into a fixing position with the rail by a fastening movement of the entrainment member, the fastening movement being carried out in a horizontal plane, wherein the entrainment member has a connecting part corresponding to the connecting counterpart of the rail, the connecting part forming a pivot axis, the entrainment member being pivotably supported on the rail about the pivot axis; wherein the connecting part is a first connecting part and the connecting counterpart is a first connecting counterpart, a second connecting part is formed on the entrainment member, and a second connecting counterpart corresponding to the second connecting part is formed on the rail; and wherein the second connecting part is in the form of a lug which is bent L-shaped, and the second connecting counterpart is in the form of a recess.
