First Claim
Patent Images
1. An arrangement comprising:
- at least one movable furniture part;
at least one drive unit;
at least one regulating device for regulating the at least one drive unit; and
at least one acceleration measuring device for detecting an acceleration of the at least one movable furniture part caused by a pulling or pushing force applied to the at least one movable furniture part from outside the arrangement, the at least one acceleration measuring device being operable to generate an acceleration signal corresponding to the detected acceleration of the at least one movable furniture part caused by the pulling or pushing force, wherein the at least one acceleration measuring device is operable to supply the acceleration signal to the at least one regulating device, and wherein the at least one regulating device is operable to send the drive unit a control command for moving the movable furniture part in a direction of the pulling or pushing force.

49. A process for moving a movable furniture part that is mounted in or on an arrangement having a drive unit, a drive unit regulator and a position measuring device, the process comprising:
-
sending signals to the drive unit regulator from the position measuring device; and sending a command signal from the drive unit regulator to the drive unit for accelerating the movable furniture part based on the signals received by the drive unit regulator from the position measuring device, wherein the sending of the signals to the drive unit regulator comprises sending a signal corresponding to a change in a movement condition of the movable furniture part that is caused by a pulling or pushing force from outside the arrangement. - View Dependent Claims (50, 51)

52. A process for moving a movable furniture part that is mounted in or on an arrangement having a drive unit, a drive unit regulator and a position measuring device, the process comprising:
-
sending signals to the drive unit regulator from the position measuring device, wherein the sending of the signals includes sending a signal to the drive unit regulator from the position measuring device once the movable furniture part has moved over a predetermined distance; and sending a command signal from the drive unit regulator to the drive unit for accelerating the movable furniture part based on the signal sent to the drive unit regulator once the movable furniture part has moved over the predetermined distance. - View Dependent Claims (53)
