Sliding-pivoting mechanism for a shelf of a piece of furniture or household appliance, and piece of furniture or household appliance

A sliding-pivoting mechanism for a shelf of a piece of furniture or household appliance for pulling out and lifting the shelf from a body of the piece of furniture or household appliance, the sliding-pivoting mechanism comprising:

• at least two pivot arms for pivotable fixing to the body, wherein the at least two pivot arms are arranged parallel to one another and form a parallel guide for a pull-out guide, wherein the pall-out guide comprises at least one guide rail and a running rail, wherein the running rail is displaceable relative to the guide rail and to which the shelf is fastened;
• a locking mechanism arranged on the guide rail and on one of the pivot arms and configured to prevent simultaneous pivoting and sliding movement of the shelf, wherein the locking mechanism comprises a locking pin movably arranged on one of the at least two pivot arms, and a locking plate mounted in a stationary manner relative to the guide rail, wherein the locking plate and the locking pin cooperate in such a way that a pivoting of the pivot arms is blocked when the shelf is raised to an upper loading and unloading position;
• and
• an unlocking device coupled to the locking mechanism and having an actuating element and an unlocking element, with which the locking pin is moveable from a blocking position to a release position,
• wherein the actuating element is a handle that is tiltable about a horizontal pivot axis and is coupled to the unlocking element via a connecting lever,
• wherein the unlocking element is a U-shaped lever rotatably arranged on a guide adapter, wherein the U-shaped lever has a first leg and a second leg connected to the first leg via a base,
• wherein the locking pin is pressable out of a locking groove of the locking plate:
• by tilting the unlocking element with a tongue extending from the base.

A household appliance, comprising:

• a body;
• at least one shelf guided in the body by a sliding-pivoting mechanism, which comprises
• at least two pivot arms for pivotable fixing to the body, wherein the at least two pivot arms are arranged parallel to one another and form a parallel guide for a pull-out guide, wherein the pull-out guide comprises at least one guide rail and a running rail, wherein the running rail is displaceable relative to the guide rail and to which the shelf is fastened;
• a locking mechanism arranged on the guide rail and on one of the pivot arms and configured to prevent simultaneous pivoting and sliding movement of the shelf, wherein the locking mechanism comprises a locking pin movably arranged on one of the at least two pivot arms, and a locking plate mounted in a stationary manner relative to the guide rail, wherein the locking plate and the locking pin cooperate in such a way that a pivoting of the pivot arms is blocked when the shelf is raised to an upper loading and unloading position;
• and
• an unlocking device coupled to the locking mechanism and having an actuating element and an unlocking element, with which the locking pin is moveable from a blocking position to a release position,
• wherein the actuating element is a handle that is tiltable about a horizontal pivot axis and is coupled to the unlocking element via a connecting lever,
• wherein
• the unlocking element is an L-shaped lever rotatably arranged on the connecting lever and having a first leg and a second leg oriented at an angle to the first leg, and
• the locking pin is pressable out of a locking groove of the kicking plate by tilting the unlocking element with the first leg, or
• wherein
• the unlocking element is a U-shaped lever rotatably arranged on a guide adapter, wherein the U-shaped lever has a first leg and a second leg connected to the first leg via a base,
• the locking pin is pressable out of a locking groove of the locking plate by tilting the unlocking element with a tongue extending from the base.
