    15 20 25 30 35 from Kitchen equipment such as coffee makers, toasters and the like and not least sink mixers, which means that the solution does not fit everywhere in the kitchen. Another disadvantage is that the upper cabinet, in which the height-adjustable cabinet interior is placed, must be specially adapted or replaced, since at least the lowest shelf level must be removed. Other problems arise from adapting the lighting that is usually mounted under the top cabinets, for lighting the work surfaces on the worktop. There are lighting solutions for installation under the specially adapted cabinet interior, which lighting is then often coordinated with a clamp protection that must be present under all height-adjustable cabinets, but when rebuilding, other lighting under other standard cabinets must usually be replaced, to get a uniform lighting in the kitchen. All these measures drive costs for the adaptation, and in addition, as mentioned above, the cost of restoring the interior must also be taken into account when, for example, changing users. Height-adjustable devices must be able to withstand a load of at least 40 kg, according to the standards that exist in the area and a further disadvantage of this construction, where the cabinet body lacks a bottom, is that the weight of any overload in the cabinet means that sinking of the cabinet interior, which must be taken into account when dimensioning the engine and drive package.
    In addition, if the top cabinet is placed on the outside or freestanding, ie it lacks surrounding cabinets, the existing cabinet frame must usually be reinforced, as the normally fixed bottom of the cabinet is missing.
    Cabinet lifter A completely different type of construction is the wall cabinet lifter. According to this design principle, the entire complete top cabinet is lowered down from the wall, in an arcuate or diagonal movement from the wall position, down to a position just above the kitchen counter surface and to the front edge thereof, thus the entire kitchen cabinet including cabinet doors, coming down and out towards the user. This gives an easily accessible top cabinet at the level of the front edge of the kitchen counter, where the user can reach the contents of the top cabinet much more easily. An advantage of this compared to the vertical solution is also that existing wall cabinets can be used, although of course they must be dismantled initially during the adaptation. This also means that no space inside the cabinet is wasted, which in cases where an extra specially adapted cabinet interior is placed inside the cabinet frame. However, this solution requires some clearance around the cabinets so that they do not rub against other surrounding cabinets, which means that it is not always possible to use the existing cabinets completely safely - they must fit between other cabinet fittings and fit in with the rest of the kitchen section. . This solution means that strong constructions with wall brackets and lifting arms are mounted behind the cabinets, which cabinets are then screwed into the support parts of the lifting device. When the entire cabinet frames, including cabinet doors, are lifted down and up, according to this method, it is easy to realize that the constructions must be significantly stronger compared to the vertical lift, and handle not only 40 kg of contents, but also the significant dead weight of the overhead cabinets. , which increases both installation costs and electricity consumption during operation. Another disadvantage of the construction is that the cabinet doors follow down and become the path for the user as the cabinet contents must be set aside on the track surfaces next to the submerged cabinet. An extra pull-out top is often placed under the worktop at the height-adjustable cabinet interior to solve this problem, but the solution is still not completely successful as the cabinet doors still have to be closed before the cabinet is raised again, with the recently unloaded cabinet contents standing in the way. for the doors to be closed.
    Diagonal lifter A third type is the so-called diagonal lifter which combines the idea with a special height-adjustable cabinet interior, which is separate from the ordinary cabinet frame, and that the cabinet interior / contents reach the front edge of the worktop. This means that you do not have to take care of the entire dead weight from the cabinet frame, but get better accessibility by moving the cabinet interior through a diagonal or arcuate movement from the first position in the cabinet frame to a working position just above the worktop and in front of it. Another advantage here is that the cabinet doors can be arranged so that the interior automatically opens them during the immersion of the cabinet interior and vice versa, closes them in the final stage of the return of the cabinet interior to the position in the cabinet frame. The cabinet doors thus remain in a high position together with the cabinet frame. Unfortunately, this solution also has the above-described disadvantages concerning damage to existing cabinet fittings, since the immediately diagonal or arcuate movement means that the bottom of the cabinet frame must be removed. In other words, the total costs increase significantly when either the cabinet frames are replaced with specially adapted frames or the existing ones have to be sawn up at the bottom to accommodate the cabinet interior during the movement. Furthermore, this way of moving the cabinet interior means that the cabinet interior itself is forced to be significantly lower than the cabinet frame itself, to make room for the movement itself and the parts that enable the diagonal or arcuate movement, such as pivotable guide arms and the like. Lighting and any decorative moldings under the top cabinets are also affected as the bottom of the cabinet frame is removed, which also significantly affects installation and restoration costs, as described above. The same applies to the dimensioning of the included drive and support devices, which must withstand some overload in order not to sink from their rest position in the cabinet frame.
    There is thus a need to improve the solutions known on the market regarding height-adjustable cabinets and cabinet fittings, above all from a total cost perspective, taking into account both installation costs and restoration costs. If these costs are significantly reduced, the possibility for a user to bring about an adaptation of his or her home or workplace increases, whereby an increased freedom and equality is achieved for the user when, for example, choosing a home or workplace.
    Disclosure of the Invention The present invention achieves the object of solving the above-described problems and advancing the technology in the field, by a method and a device which enables a moving of a cabinet interior in an advantageous manner whereby the cabinet interior can be installed in existing cabinets without direct damage to the cabinet frame and with a greatly reduced total cost for the adaptation.
    From the first aspect of the invention the object is achieved by a method of the initially specified kind in which a height-adjustable cabinet interior is moved from a first position and out of a cabinet frame by a first movement in at least almost horizontal direction, i.e. a direction parallel to the cabinet frame bottom and in the direction towards the room and the patient, to a second position just outside the front edge of the cabinet frame. Because the first movement is horizontal or at least almost horizontal, the dimensions of the cabinet interior can be maximized in relation to the interior dimensions of the cabinet frame, with only minimal play between the inside of the cabinet frame and the top and bottom of the cabinet interior (approx. 10 mm and 5 mm). The distance between the sides of the cabinet interior and the inner sides of the cabinet frame is determined in most cases by how much the hinges on any cabinet doors are built on, which thus controls the width of the cabinet interior, rather than the device itself for moving the cabinet interior. The main advantage of the invention is, however, that the method means that the cabinet interior can be placed in existing cabinet frames without these having to be completely dismantled and then reassembled, with a complete wall cabinet lifter behind, or that existing cabinet frames must be modified by sawing off the underside , to enable the function of a so-called diagonal lifter or vertical lifter, see description above.
    The total cost for installation and a later restoration of, for example, a standard adaptation of a kitchen cabinet comprising 2 80 cm wide top cabinets, will according to the invention be in the order of about 1/10 compared to the corresponding adaptation with eg wall cabinet lifters, including that the currently available alternatives must peripherals such as lighting, moldings, etc. are also adapted for a complete solution, as described above, which will not be necessary in this new solution. With the invention, the total cost is greatly reduced, which is why the conditions, for example for a disabled person to bring about an adaptation of his kitchen in a tenancy or condominium, become significantly more favorable than with the alternatives currently available on the market. According to a preferred embodiment of the method, the first, horizontal movement takes place out of the cabinet body by a stored force in a force storage device. Preferably, this power storage device is a gas damper, but may of course be a hydraulic damper, a compressible spring or other suitable power storage device. The stored force has at least partly a horizontal force component which is directed from the first position inside the cabinet body and towards the second position outside the cabinet frame. The stored force, which is released when the user initiates this, for example to control a motor through a remote control, which then controlled and slowly lags behind with an opposing force, for example by a drive belt arranged between the cabinet interior and a drive shaft, whereby the force in the power storage device is gradually released. protrudes the cabinet frame in a horizontal direction, out of the cabinet frame and to the other position outside the cabinet frame. Because the power is stored when the cabinet interior is in its first position, completely inside the cabinet body, the motor does not have to provide the first horizontal movement, which movement is a prerequisite for the inventive idea. In the diagonal lift, for example, the motor works in the same way, ie drives a shaft to rotate and spin in or out a drive belt which is attached between the shaft and the cabinet interior, but here the interior must immediately begin a vertical movement, driven by its own weight and load in the cabinet , to achieve the desired function. Thus, the present invention has the advantage that by using a stored force, and with the same simple form of drive device - motor and drive belt, to achieve a horizontal movement out of the cabinet, which has not been possible in known older solutions. Thus, the problems described above have been solved in a cost-effective and space-optimized manner.
    According to a further preferred embodiment of the method described above, the force is stored in the power storage device by moving the cabinet interior in the direction of the first position in the cabinet body. Preferably, this takes place when the engine described above, so to speak, rolls up the drive belt, whereby the cabinet interior is moved in the direction of the first position, and thus, for example, a gas damper therefore dimensioned for this purpose is compressed during the movement. In its rest position inside the cabinet body, the stored force, from the engine's drive of the cabinet interior to the first position, is stored in the gas damper and available for the next time when the cabinet interior is called out of the cabinet frame again. The gas damper only needs to be dimensioned to be able to push the cabinet interior out of the cabinet, but not to carry any weight of cabinet interior or cabinet load.
    According to a preferred embodiment of the method, a second movement is allowed when the cabinet interior has reached its second position outside the cabinet frame. This second movement has a direction which is different from the first, at least almost horizontal movement. This makes it possible to move the cabinet interior to another position where it preferably has further improved accessibility for the user. The invention is not limited to working only for top cabinets, even if it is the main object, but can also be applied to other cabinets where increased accessibility is desired.
    According to an alternative embodiment, a second movement is allowed with the same direction as the first movement, i.e. almost horizontal, in order to further move the cabinet interior to a new position with better access than the second position. This new position can, for example, be at the front edge of a worktop, but still with the same height as the top cabinet. Depending on the user, this position may be sufficient to access the cabinet contents, or at least the lower shelves. The new position after the second movement may also allow a third movement, for example a vertical or diagonal movement. This possibility is not found in other solutions to increase the accessibility of the cabinet contents.
    According to one embodiment, the second movement of the cabinet interior takes place substantially in the vertical direction, between the second position outside the cabinet frame and a third position, which is an end position for the movement of the cabinet interior. In the third position the accessibility is very good and preferably this position is located just above the surface of the worktop and level with its leading edge.
    Compared with, for example, the diagonal lifter, which also reaches basically the same end position for the cabinet interior, the way there is different and preferable for the same reasons as mentioned above, namely that the cabinet frame does not need to be adjusted, which also leads to discarding when restoring an original condition.
    In a further preferred embodiment of the method, the cabinet interior is guided, during the first movement by at least a first guide rail, which is fixedly arranged, substantially horizontally, relative to the cabinet frame either by being attached directly to the cabinet frame or attached to a wall mount which attaches the device to the cabinet frame .
    At least one first guide wheel runs against this first guide rail, which is arranged on a first end of a movably mounted guide arm. The guide arm is in turn arranged at the cabinet interior or on an interior bracket arranged at the cabinet interior, and the first guide wheel runs against the first guide rail during the first horizontal movement and prevents a vertical movement of the cabinet interior during its first movement inside the cabinet frame. This means that the cabinet interior cannot sink inside the cabinet frame even if an overload occurs, ie the cabinet is loaded with contents which are heavier than what the device is dimensioned for according to the standard in the field. The overall dimensioning of the motor and power storage device is also favored by the load being carried by the guide rail and the steering wheel during its first movement. In the solutions lacking the cabinet bottom, either the drive belts or other locking must be provided to prevent a sink of the interior in the first position. The power storage device thus only needs to be dimensioned for the horizontal movement, not to be able to handle any load in the vertical direction.
    According to a further embodiment of the invented method, the second, substantially vertical, movement is guided by a second guide rail, which is arranged at least almost vertically on the cabinet interior, and at least one second guide wheel, which runs towards the second guide rail during the second movement. The second steering wheel is also arranged on the above-mentioned, movably mounted guide arm, but on a second end thereof. The vertical control of the cabinet interior during the second movement means that a stable movement of the cabinet interior takes place. Other, older solutions have had problems with the cabinet interior rocking during movement, which can cause something in the cabinet to tip over.
    According to a preferred embodiment of the invented method, the cabinet interior is stabilized and guided during its second movement by a cooperation of the two guide wheels which are arranged on each end of the movably mounted, and preferably L-shaped, guide arm.
    This is done in that the first guide rail at its outer end comprises a tongue, against which the first guide wheel rests in the second position of the cabinet interior outside the cabinet frame and also during the second, vertical movement. The tongue serves in this position as a stop which prevents an inward horizontal movement of the first wheel towards the cabinet body, and because the second wheel is arranged on the other end of the same movably mounted guide arm, the second wheel is also prevented from moving inwards towards the cabinet frame. This results in a positioning of the two steering wheels during the second movement. The second guide wheel is also guided by the second, vertical guide rail, which in this position then further strengthens the positioning and provides a stable gait during the entire second movement. Older solutions generally become unstable and "rocking" in their external positions.
    From the second aspect of the invention, the object is solved to solve the above-mentioned problems by means of a device of the type specified in the preamble of claim 10, in which a height-adjustable cabinet device is arranged to be moved from a first position in a cabinet frame and out thereof, through a first movement in at least almost horizontal direction, i.e. a direction parallel to the bottom of the cabinet frame and in the direction towards the room and the user, and to a second position just outside the front edge of the cabinet frame, and that at least one guide wheel is arranged to prevent unwanted vertical movement during this first, horizontal movement.
    The cabinet interior can thus not sink inside the cabinet frame even if the cabinet is loaded with contents heavier than what the device is dimensioned for according to the test standard in the field. The dimensioning of the motor and power storage device is also favored by the fact that relief takes place through the steering wheel during the first movement. In solutions without the cabinet bottom, the drive belts or other locking must usually be dimensioned to prevent a sink of the interior in the first position inside the cabinet frame.
    According to a preferred embodiment of the device, the device comprises a first guide rail which is fixedly arranged, substantially horizontally, in relation to the cabinet frame either by being attached directly to the cabinet frame or attached to a wall bracket which attaches the device to the cabinet frame. Against this first guide rail, the first guide wheel runs during the first horizontal movement, whereby a vertical movement of the cabinet interior is prevented, with the same advantages as previously mentioned. The first steering wheel is in this case arranged at the cabinet interior.
    According to a further preferred embodiment, the device comprises a force storage device, preferably in the form of a gas damper, which is arranged to store a force component, which is at least partially parallel to the direction of the first movement.
    Power storage device is attached between the wall bracket, in which the entire device is attached to the cabinet body, and an interior bracket to which the height-adjustable cabinet device itself is attached. Depending on the type of power storage device it is (gas damper, spring, hydraulic piston, etc.) this is placed in a suitable way. A gas damper must be longer than the movement it is to produce, and in this case it is a horizontal movement that is of interest as stored force, the gas damper having to be placed obliquely between the wall bracket and the interior bracket. The power is stored in the gas damper by moving the cabinet interior in the direction of the first position in the cabinet frame. This is preferably done by the motor arranged on the wall bracket, so to speak, rolling up the drive belt, whereby the cabinet interior is moved in the direction of the first position, and thus the gas damper is compressed during the movement. In its rest position inside the cabinet body, the stored force from the engine's drive of the cabinet interior towards the first position is thus stored in the gas damper and available for the next time when the cabinet interior is called out of the cabinet frame again. No previously known constructions of height-adjustable cabinet fittings show any possibility of arranging a horizontal movement out of a cabinet frame, which thus means installation and restoration without appreciable effect on the frame, lighting, decorative moldings etc.
    In a preferred form of the invention, the device preferably comprises two, but at least one vertical guide rail arranged between the interior bracket and the cabinet interior. The vertical guide rail allows the cabinet interior to be displaced in the vertical direction and guides the cabinet interior during a vertical movement. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the first steering wheel is rotatably mounted at a first end of a, preferably L-shaped, steering arm, which steering arm is in turn movably mounted at the interior bracket at an attachment point at an angle between the L -shaped two arms of the steering arm. At the other end of the steering arm, a second steering wheel is rotatably mounted and when the steering wheels are arranged on each end of the movably mounted steering arm, a steering or movement of one steering wheel means a simultaneous movement of the other steering wheel. When the guide arm is attached to the interior bracket, this means that the guide arm and guide wheels follow the cabinet interior during the first horizontal movement out of and into the cabinet body and during this movement the first guide wheel is guided by the first guide rail, thereby preventing vertical movement of the cabinet interior. When the cabinet interior has reached its second position outside the cabinet body, the interior bracket, on which the guide arm is movably mounted, does not follow during the vertical movement, which is allowed from this second position outside the cabinet frame.
    According to one embodiment, the preferred design of the device comprises a second, substantially vertical, guide rail. This is fixedly arranged on the cabinet interior and this second guide rail guides the second guide wheel during a second vertical movement of the cabinet interior, between the second position outside the cabinet frame and a third position, which is an end position for the cabinet interior. This third position means that the bottom of the cabinet interior is located just above the worktop and at the front edge thereof, the contents of the cabinet being easily accessible to the user. Through the steering arm, the two guide rails (horizontal and vertical) and the two steering wheels, a very good steering is obtained during the two different movements of the cabinet interior between their end positions, while the coupling between the steering wheels via the steering arm allows coordination between the two separate movements, and a simultaneous positioning and Stabilization of the cabinet interior's movement between the end positions. As previously mentioned, several of the older solutions have had problems with mainly stability.
    As mentioned above, the two guide wheels, the guide arm and the guide rails are used for coordination in the transition between horizontal and vertical movement of the cabinet interior. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, this coordination is refined in that the first, substantially horizontal, guide rail at its outer end, i.e. closest to the front edge of the cabinet body, comprises a guiding and stopping first tongue. This tongue is guided in that it guides the first guide wheel into the first guide rail during the transition from the vertical movement to the horizontal movement of the cabinet interior, as the first guide wheel moves from a position slightly outside, and at a level slightly above, the first the horizontal plane of the guide rail. Furthermore, the tongue, by its design even at the reverse course, guides the transition from the horizontal movement to the vertical, in that the first guide wheel rolls out on the tongue and thus also moves slightly upwards in relation to the first guide rail. horizontal plane, whereby also the second guide wheel changes position, via the movably mounted guide arm, and in this way the second guide wheel comes into the correct position against the second guide rail. A smooth transition is thus obtained at the transition between the movements. The tongue also has a stopping function because the first wheel stops on the tongue in the second position outside the cabinet body and also during the entire second vertical movement, whereby a secure horizontal positioning takes place of the second guide wheel against the second guide rail, and a very stable gait can occur during the vertical movement between the second position and the third position. The second guide rail also comprises, according to a preferred embodiment, a guiding second tongue, which is arranged at the lower end of the second guide rail and in a similar manner as the first tongue. This second tongue guides the second steering wheel during the transition between the horizontal and vertical movement, in coordination with the first tongue, the steering arm and the first steering wheel. In the reverse course - the transition between vertical and horizontal movement - the second guide wheel rolls out on the tongue and thus ends up slightly outside and beyond the vertical plane of the second guide rail, whereby also the first guide wheel changes position, via the movably mounted guide arm, and thus the first guide wheel in the correct position against the first horizontal guide rail. A smooth transition is thus obtained at the transition between the two movements through the coordination between the two tongues, the steering wheels and the steering arm.
    The cabinet interior thus obtains a soft and stably controlled path of movement, regardless of whether the movement is vertical, horizontal or the transition between these in both directions.
    Through the invention, a number of advantages over known solutions have been obtained: The device can be mounted in existing cabinets without the bottom of the cabinet frame having to be removed.
    Existing lighting, moldings and the like can be retained without effect when the cabinet frame is unaffected, which is not only important for the height-adjustable cabinet unit but also for surrounding kitchen cabinets, which in other solutions are affected by the adaptation.
    The total cost for adapting top cabinets in a normal case comprising 2 80 cm wide top cabinets, including installation of equipment for the adaptation, electricity, lighting, etc. and the cost for restoration after the need for height-adjustable furnishings has ceased, is in the order of 1/10 compared with corresponding adjustment with, for example, wall cabinet lifters.
    - A stable "walk" through the entire movement of the cabinet interior, from the normal position next to the wall to the working position at the front edge of the worktop. Brief Description of the Figures The present invention will be explained below by way of non-limiting example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: Fig. 1 illustrates the scope of the invention, and shows a height-adjustable cabinet interior, in that for the user important position for good accessibility of the contents of the cabinet.
    Fig. 2 shows the complete device 1 with the cabinet interior 2 in its second position (b), outside the front edge 12 of the cabinet frame 3.
    Fig. 3 shows one side of the device 1, with the cabinet interior 2 in its second position (b).
    Figure 4 shows one side of the device 1, with the cabinet interior 2 in its third position (c), accessible to the user.
    The constructive design of the present invention will become apparent in the following detailed description of embodiments of the invention with reference to the accompanying figures which show preferred, but not limiting, embodiments of the invention.
    Detailed description of the figures Fig. 1 shows a basic view of a preferred embodiment of a device 1 according to the invention. The figure shows a typical area of use for the invention, where the device 1 is applied in a cupboard 28 in a standard kitchen interior. The device 1 comprises a height-adjustable cabinet interior 2, which has left its first position (a) inside a cabinet frame 3 and the cabinet interior 2 is in a lowered position, an end position (c) just above a base cabinet 30 with a worktop 29 on top. This end position (c) provides good accessibility to the contents of the upper cabinet 28, through the position of the cabinet interior 2 at and just above the front edge of the worktop 29, which is particularly important for, for example, persons with reduced mobility or short stature. Furthermore, the cabinet door 31 of the top cabinet 28 can be seen opened and in its usual position on the cabinet frame 3, and the opening takes place according to the invention by the movement of the cabinet interior 2 out of the cabinet frame 3, which then pushes out the cabinet door 31 in a slow and controlled movement. The closing of the cabinet door 31 also takes place automatically at the passage of the cabinet interior 2 into the cabinet frame 3, preferably according to a standard solution available on the market.
    Fig. 2 shows a preferred embodiment of the invention in which the cabinet interior 2 has been moved, by a first movement 11, horizontally, from its first position (a) inside the cabinet frame 3, to a second position (b) just outside the cabinet frame 3. The device 1 is largely mirror-symmetrical, and comprises on each side a wall bracket 4, which is fastened to the sides or back piece of the cabinet frame 3. Respective wall bracket 4 comprises two first horizontal guide rails 6, a horizontal first guide rail 13, a power repair device 14 in the form of a gas damper, a drive belt 9 arranged on a rotatable drive shaft 8, which extends between the two wall brackets 4 on each side of the device 1. One side of the complete device 1 also comprises a motor 7 arranged for driving the drive shaft 8.
    The motor 7 rotates the drive shaft 8 for winding and unrolling the drive belt 9, respectively, which drive belt 9 is thus attached with one end to the drive shaft 8 and its other end to the cabinet interior 2. The drive belt 9 runs over a pair of break wheels 32, which guide the drive belt 9 and at the same time allow a change of direction of the running belt 9 raceway. The drive belt 9 is further guided during its attachment to the drive shaft 8 by a wheel 33. The cabinet interior 2 is attached to an interior mount 5, which in the preferred embodiment is in the form of a torsionally rigid sheet metal frame, to which the first two horizontal guide rails 6 are attached. its one end. The other end of the first guide rails 6 are fixedly arranged preferably on the wall bracket 4, alternatively directly in the cabinet frame 3. Against the interior bracket 5 two second guide rails 16 are also fixedly arranged with one end, and which other guide rails 16 run vertically relative to the cabinet interior 2 The other end of the second guide rails 16 are fixedly arranged in the cabinet interior 2. Through the first guide rails 6, the cabinet interior 2, and its interior bracket 5, are movable in horizontal direction between the first position (a) in the cabinet frame 3 and the second position (b). just outside the cabinet frame 3. Through the second guide rails 16, the cabinet interior 2, but not the interior bracket 5, are movable in vertical direction between the second position (b) just outside the cabinet frame 3 and the third position (c). A movably mounted guide arm 17 is arranged on the interior bracket 5. This guide arm 17 preferably has an L-shape and on a first end 19 a first guide wheel 10 is mounted and on a second end 26 a second guide wheel 18 is mounted. The first guide wheel 10 rolls towards the horizontal first guide rail 13, during the first movement 11 of the cabinet interior 2 between the first position (a) and the second position (b). The second guide wheel 18 rolls, during a vertical second movement 21, towards a vertically arranged, second guide rail 20, see description of figure 3-4. To arrange a smooth transition between the different movements 11, 21, the first guide rail 13 has a fold - a first tongue 23 - at its outer end 22. The second guide rail 20 has a corresponding fold - a second tongue 25 - at its lower end 24. This is explained in connection with Figure 3-4.
    Figure 3 shows the cabinet interior 2 in the second position (b), where the cabinet interior 2 has been moved through the vertical second movement 21, from the third position (c) above the worktop 30. For increased clarity, the worktop 30, the cabinet frame 3 and those in the figure are not shown. further details of the device.
    When the cabinet interior 2 is pulled by the engine 7, via the drive belts 9, horizontally into the cabinet body 3 in the direction of the first position (a), a force is simultaneously stored in the respective power storage device / gas damper 14 by compressing it during this first 10 15 20 25 30 35 The stored force is then used in the reverse movement, to push the cabinet interior 2 out of the cabinet body 3, in the horizontal first movement 11. This takes place in coordination with the motor 7 in such a way that when the motor 7 begins to rotate the drive shaft 8 (not shown) in the opposite direction to the winding rotation, the force storage device 14 expands and produces a horizontal force which balances against the roll-out speed of the motor 7. Initially, the motor 7 is controlled to a slow rotational movement by the drive shaft 8, so that the cabinet doors 31 (not shown) are not opened too quickly. By the coordination between the motor 7 and the power storage device 14 a soft first movement 11 is obtained out of the cabinet and during this movement the first guide wheel 10 rolls towards the first guide rail 13, which ensures that no lowering of the cabinet interior 2 takes place during the movement, or for that matter the resting position (a) inside the cabinet body 3. In the figure and detail A, the transition between the vertical second movement 21, and the horizontal first movement 11, is shown, which causes the position of the respective steering wheels 10, 18.
    In the second position (b) of the cabinet interior 2, at the transition from the horizontal first movement 11 to the vertical second movement 21, the first guide wheel 10 rolls up on the first tongue 23, whereby a rotating movement, of the movably mounted guide arm 17, is effected, around mounting of the guide arm 17 This causes the second guide wheel 18 to roll off the second tongue 25 and up on the second guide rail 20. Conversely, at the transition from the vertical second movement 21, to the horizontal first movement 11, the second guide wheel 18 rolls up on the second tongue 25, whereby a rotating movement of the movably mounted guide arm 17 is effected.
    This then causes the first guide wheel 10 to roll off the first tongue 23 and up on / into the first guide rail 13. The guide arm 17 enables a very smooth transition between the two different movements.
    Figure 4 shows the cabinet interior 2 in the third position (c), above the worktop 30, where the cabinet interior 2 has been moved through the vertical second movement 21, from the second position (b), outside the cabinet frame 3. For greater clarity, the worktop 30, the cabinet frame, is not shown. 3 and the distant details of the device in the figure.
    When the cabinet interior 2 and the interior bracket 5 have reached the second position (b), the guide rails 6 have reached their maximum position, whereby the power storage equipment / gas damper 14 cannot expand further. Only in this second position (b) does the construction allow a transition from the horizontal first movement 11, to the vertical second movement 21. In this second position (b), as described above, the first steering wheel 10 abuts against the first tongue 23 and rolls out on it at the same time as the second guide wheel 18 rolls off the second tongue 25 and up on the side, facing the cabinet body 3, of the second guide rail 20. During the entire vertical second movement 21, the first guide wheel 10 rests against the first tongue 23, and thus serves as a 14 abutment against an inward, horizontal movement of the cabinet interior 2, and positions the second guide wheel 18, and thus the cabinet interior 2 during the second movement 21. A stable and horizontally fixed second movement 21 is thereby obtained. The vertical second guide rails 16 are attached between the interior bracket 5 and the cabinet interior 2, and help to guide the cabinet interior 2 during the vertical movement. The mounting bracket 5 maintains the position at the second position (b) outside the cabinet body 3 during the vertical second movement 21. The transitions between the two movements 11, 21 have been described above in figure text 3. In the third position (c) full access to the contents of the otherwise more difficult to access upper cabinet 28. 10 15 20 25 30 35 1 = device 2 = cabinet interior 3 = cabinet frame 4 = wall bracket 5 = interior bracket 6 = first guide rail 7 = motor 8 = drive shaft 9 = drive belt 10 = first guide wheel 11 = first movement 12 = front edge 13 = first guide rail 14 = power storage device 15 = power component 16 = second guide rail 17 = guide arm 18 = second guide wheels 19 = first end 20 = second guide rail 21 = second movement 22 = outer end 23 = first tongue 24 = lower end 25 = second tongue 26 = other end 27 = fastening 28 = top cabinet 29 = worktop 30 = base cabinet 31 = cabinet door 32 = break wheel 33 = wheel 15 BOME LIST
