Abstract

A furniture fitting includes a lever mechanism for moving a furniture part, the lever mechanism including a lever pivotally supported about a hinge axis, and the lever has a cylindrical opening in which the hinge axis is arranged with a clearance. A force storage member is configured to apply a force to the lever mechanism. The hinge axis, upon a pivoting movement of the lever, is movable from a first bearing location within the opening to a second bearing location within the opening under the influence of the force storage member. A spring element pressurizes the hinge axis with a force in a direction extending transversely to a virtual line connecting the two bearing locations of the hinge axis within the opening of the lever.
