ABSTRACT:
A closing device is employed in an article of furniture having furniture components including a furniture body and a drawer for moving the drawer to a fully inserted position within the furniture body. The closing device includes a pin member fixed to one of the furniture components and a tiltable member mounted on the other of the furniture components for displacement relative thereto in opposite first and second directions. The pin member and the tiltable members are engaged when the drawer is in the fully inserted position. Upon the drawer being moved in the direction outwardly of the furniture body, the tiltable member displaces relative to the other furniture component in the first direction. A spring acts on the tiltable member and the other furniture component to urge relative displacement therebetween in the second direction. When the pin and tiltable members are in engagement, the spring urges the drawer to move in a direction inwardly of the furniture body to the fully inserted position. When the tiltable member displaces relative to the other furniture component against the force of the spring means in the first direction to a predetermined relative position, the tiltable member is caused to tilt in a first pivot direction about an axis to a locking position whereat the tiltable member is locked to the other furniture component and engagement between the pin member and the tiltable member is released.
