ABSTRACT:
A closing device is provided for a drawer having a pull-out rail fastened to the drawer and a supporting rail fastened to the body of an article of furniture. An energy storing member is arranged between the drawer and the furniture body, preferably between the pull-out rail and the supporting rail. Such energy storing member stores part of kinematic energy imported thereto during opening of the drawer and releases such energy to the drawer during an end portion of movement of the drawer during closing thereof. The energy storing member includes a holding member which is pivotally mounted at a body side wall and includes a zone of contact having the shape of a circular arc for engagement with a tension pinion that is stationarily mounted with respect to the body side wall. The tension pinion has a frictional connection with the pull-out rail.
