Abstract
A locking device for releasably locking two furniture parts that can move relative to one another against the force of a force accumulator, includes a heart-shaped locking contour with a heart-shaped depression and a locking element, and can move relative to the heart-shaped locking contour and, in a locking position, can be arranged in the heart-shaped depression of the heart-shaped locking contour. The locking element can be moved, by a motion out of the locking position into a further pushed position, out of the heart-shaped depression into a release position, and the locking device has a push-through depression separate from the heart-shaped depression, in which the at least one locking element can be arranged and at least one blocking contour which blocks movement of the at least one locking element out of the push-through depression into the heart-shaped depression.
