A mechanism (100) for moving a furniture wing with a downward folding opening, designed to be placed on a side (4) of a piece of furniture (1), said mechanism being contained in a box (10) with two half-shells (11, 12), said mechanism comprising:
- a hinge (C) comprising a plurality of levers configured to articulate in relation to one another, to the box (10), and to the wing (6) for moving the wing,
- a first lever (L1) of said plurality of levers being configured to slide in a track (B) formed in the box (10), and
- a second lever (L2) of said plurality of levers being configured to rotate around a first fulcrum point (P1) provided on the box (10), a first end (22) of the second lever (L2) acting on a front side (31) of a first linear slider (30), a rear side (32) of the first linear slider (30) acting on a first end (33) of a rocker lever (34), and an opposing second end (35) of the rocker lever (34) acting on a second linear slider (40) subjected to an action of springs (42),
- first and second dampers being mounted on said first linear slider (30), the first damper (50) damping a final part of a descent stroke of the wing (6) during opening of the wing, and the second damper (60) damping a final part of an ascent stroke of the wing (6) during closure of the wing.
