Patent ID: 8590990

Claim:
A furniture flap drive comprising: an electric drive having an electric motor; a mechanical actuating unit having an actuating arm which pivots about a rotational axis; a centering device provided on the actuating unit or the electric drive by which the actuating unit and the electric drive can be positioned precisely for fastening purposes; a bearing by which the electric drive can be suspended such that the suspended electric drive is swivelable about the bearing towards the actuating unit; and a locking device, wherein the actuating unit and the electric drive are separate components and can be releasably fastened together, wherein the locking device is remote from the bearing, and the electric drive can be locked to the actuating unit with the locking device after the electric drive swivels onto the actuating unit, wherein the actuating unit has a long axis which points in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the actuating unit, wherein the actuating unit has a short axis which is perpendicular to the long axis of the actuating unit and perpendicular to the rotational axis of the actuating arm, wherein the bearing is configured such that the suspended electric drive is swivelable about the short axis of the actuating unit toward the actuating unit, wherein the centering device includes a centering pin and a receiving opening, the centering pin protruding from one of the actuating unit and the electric drive, and the receiving opening being defined in the other of the actuating unit and the electric drive, wherein the centering pin can be inserted into the receiving opening for precise positioning of the actuating unit and the electric drive, and wherein the bearing is configured to allow translational movement of the electric drive in a direction perpendicular to the short axis while the electric drive is swiveling about the short axis so as to allow alignment of the centering pin and the receiving opening.
