Abstract

A guide system for guiding at least one movably-supported door wing, in particular a folding-sliding-door, relative to a stationary furniture part. The guide system includes a carrier for movably supporting the at least one door wing, a guide rail configured to be fixed to the stationary furniture part for guiding the at least one carrier, a guiding device for displaceably supporting the at least one carrier along the guide rail, a running carriage configured to be coupled to the at least one door wing, and a receiving device for receiving the at least one running carriage. The receiving device adjoins the carrier in a longitudinal direction of the carrier, and the receiving device is movably supported relative the carrier in the longitudinal direction of the carrier.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A guide system for guiding a movably-supported door wing relative to a stationary furniture part, the guide system comprising:
a carrier configured to movably support the door wing;
a guide rail to be fixed to the stationary furniture part for guiding the carrier;
a guiding device configured to displaceably support the carrier along the guide rail;
a running carriage to be coupled to the wing; and
a receiving device configured to receive the running carriage, the receiving device adjoining the carrier in a longitudinal direction of the carrier,
wherein the receiving device is supported so as to be movable relative to the carrier along the longitudinal direction of the carrier.

2. The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the guiding device of the carrier includes a running wheel configured to movably support the carrier along the guide rail.

3. The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving device includes a supporting roller separate from the guiding device of the carrier, the supporting roller movably supporting the receiving device along the guide rail.

4. The guide system according to claim 3 , wherein the guide rail includes a first running limb and a second running limb separate from the first running limb, a running wheel of the guiding device movably supporting the carrier along the first running limb of the guide rail, and the supporting roller of the receiving device movably supporting the receiving device along the second running limb of the guide rail.

5. The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier and the receiving device are connectable to one another so as to be movable along the guide rail in a coupled manner.

6. The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein that the carrier and the receiving device are configured to be coupled to one another without clearance during movement along the guide rail.

7. The guide system according to claim 1 , further comprising a protrusion configured to allow movable support between the carrier and the receiving device along the longitudinal direction of the carrier, the protrusion being arranged on a first one of the carrier or on the receiving device and being displaceably guided in a recess arranged in a second one of the receiving device or the carrier.

8. The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the guide rail is to be fixed to the stationary furniture part such that a longitudinal axis of the guide rail is substantially parallel to a depth direction of the stationary furniture part.

9. The guide system according to claim 1 , further comprising a longitudinal rail to be mounted so as to extend transversely to the guide rail.

10. The guide system according to claim 9 , wherein the receiving device is configured to be moved into a transfer position in which the receiving device adjoins the longitudinal rail along a longitudinal direction of the longitudinal rail such that the running carriage is transferrable between the longitudinal rail and the receiving device.

11. The guide system according to claim 10 , wherein the receiving device is releasably locked to the longitudinal rail in a transfer position, and the locking between the longitudinal rail and the receiving device is releasable by entry of the running carriage into the receiving device.

12. The guide system according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier has a longitudinal direction extending substantially vertically in a mounted position.

13. An item of furniture comprising:
a stationary furniture part;
a door wing movably supported relative to the stationary furniture part; and
the guide system according to claim 1 configured to guide the door wing relative to the stationary furniture part.

14. The item of furniture according to claim 13 , wherein the guide rail is arranged on the stationary furniture part, the guide rail extending in a depth direction of the stationary furniture part, and the door wing is movably connected to the carrier and is movably supported, jointly with the carrier, along the guide rail in a depth direction of the stationary furniture part.

15. The item of furniture according to claim 14 , wherein the door wing is a first door wing, the item of furniture further comprising a second door wing hingedly connected to the first door wing, wherein the first door wing and the second door wing are movably supported between a first position, in which the first door wing and the second door wing are aligned substantially coplanar to one another, and a second position, in which the first door wing and the second door wing are aligned substantially parallel to one another, wherein the first door wing and the second door wing, starting from the second position, are displaceably supported, jointly with the carrier, along the guide rail in the depth direction of the stationary furniture part.

16. The guide system according to claim 9 , wherein the longitudinal rail extends substantially at a right angle to the guide rail.
