CPC E05B 65/464 (2013.01) [A47B 2097/008 (2013.01)] | 10 Claims |
1. A furniture assembly comprising:
a first object;
a second object displaceable relative to the first object;
a self-closing device arranged on the first object, the self-closing device comprising:
a base;
a working member movable relative to the base; and
a resilient member;
an aiding member movable relative to the base of the self-closing device;
an interlock mechanism arranged on the first object, and the interlock mechanism comprising at least one locking member; and
an actuating part arranged on the second object;
wherein when the second object is displaced from a retracted position toward an extended position, the actuating part drives the working member to move from an initial position to an engaging position, and when the actuating part drives the working member to move from the initial position to the engaging position, the resilient member generates a self-closing resilient force and the aiding member is driven to move from a first predetermined position to a second predetermined position;
wherein when the second object is located at the extended position and the working member returns to the initial position from the engaging position in response to the self-closing resilient force provided by the resilient member, the aiding member is located at the second predetermined position to retain the at least one locking member of the interlock mechanism at a locking position.
