ABSTRACT:
A fitting for a piece of furniture is provided with at least one separate dowel, which is inserted into a hole of a furniture part. An expansion member is positioned within the dowel. The expansion member is connected to a lever with an eccentric cam by an axle. The dowel is pressed against a plate like part of the fitting. When the dowel is in an expanded position, the lever is situated in a recess of the plate like part. The recess is in the form of a slot. The dowel is positioned at one end of the slot and the plate like part has a casing at the same end of the slot. The expansion member protrudes through a bottom plate of the casing and the axle is situated within the casing so that the dowel abuts the bottom plate of the casing.
