Definitions

• the invention relates to a movable furniture part, in particular a drawer, with a arranged between a rear wall and a front panel railing rail, wherein the rail rod is mounted on a rotatable adjusting member on the front panel and tilts by rotating the adjusting member, the front panel.
• Such movable furniture parts or drawers are already known and are mainly used to adjust and adjust the front panels of several superimposed or juxtaposed drawers in one or more furniture carcasses. These settings are mainly carried out when installing the furniture to make the alignment of the furniture front as uniform as possible and meet aesthetic requirements.
• DE 90 01 486 U1, DE 195 07 322 U1 and DE 198 30 740 A1 relate to furniture drawer with a front panel with a rail rod by a rotatable (threaded with) adjusting member (connecting sleeve 16 in the DE 90 01 486 U1, adjusting nut 4 in DE 295 07 322 LM, adjusting nut 16 in DE 198 30 740 A1) connected and adjustable by turning the adjusting member via a thread in its inclination.
• the AT 387 894 B shows and describes an adjustment of the inclination of the front panel by turning the rail in a right-hand thread and a left-hand thread.
• the DE 38 19 512 C1 shows in the embodiment of FIG. 9 is an adjustment of the inclination for shelves by turning an adjusting (position 47) with a right-hand thread and a left-hand thread.
• the adjusting member is connected via a respective thread with the front panel and the rail rail, wherein a thread is a right-hand thread and the other a
• the front panel itself and the railing bar may have the corresponding mating thread for the adjusting member, however, it is advantageous if, on the one hand, the thread for the front panel is formed on a front panel mounting element, which is preferably connected by an expansion with the front panel, and on the other hand, the thread is formed for the rail rod in a connecting element, which is preferably connected by a press connection with the rail rail.
• the expansion joint can be designed in the form of a dowel which is fixed in the front panel.
• the adjusting member has an outer and an inner thread.
• the external thread of the adjusting engages in the mating thread in the rail rod or in the connecting element while the internal thread of the adjusting member engages around the corresponding mating thread of the front panel mounting member.
• the adjusting member has two guide slots, in each of which a guide pin on the one hand of the front panel mounting member and on the other hand of the connecting element engages, so that upon rotation of the adjusting its distance to the front panel and the rail rod changes.
• a further embodiment may provide that the adjusting member is designed as a kind of adjusting cylinder, preferably with a knurling on its peripheral surface.
• the knurling serves mainly the better handling of the adjustment.
• the rail rod is connected via a snap connection element with the rear wall and that the adjusting member is covered by a sliding cap.
• the cap serves the better visual impression and the protection of the complete adjustment mechanism.
• a further embodiment may provide that as known per se below the rail rod, the front panel and the rear wall are connected by a frame, wherein the front panel tends by turning the adjusting member and this front panel inclination by a arranged in or on a connecting element between the front panel and frame spring is compensable. This will be possibly occurring stresses at excessive inclination prevented, which otherwise could damage especially the connecting areas between the frame and front panel. Through this design, a wedge-shaped gap between the front panel and frame can also be created according to the inclination.

• the rail 4 may be formed from a steel profile in the form of a bent square tube, wherein both the connecting element 8 and the snap connection element 10 can be joined by a press connection with the rail 4 rail.
• the snap connection element 10 preferably engages laterally in the rear wall 2.
