ABSTRACT:
An item of furniture is described wherein, in order to economize on space, rotating and/or sliding doors are used for closing items of furniture, particularly cabinets. The cabinets comprise a shaft opposite the opening side of the body, which shaft is supported vertically relative to the sliding direction and is provided with at least two toothed pinions which are arranged at a distance from one another and engage in corresponding toothed racks which are securely connected with the door. These toothed racks are supported at the shaft so as to be displaceable transversely relative to its longitudinal axis. To obtain an especially advantageous guidance for the door, the rails, provided with the rows of teeth, are constructed, at least at their opposite longitudinal edges, as guide rails for rollers of running carriages which are fixedly connected with the shaft.
