Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A furniture system, including a carrier structure and a mounting element for an appliance, wherein said mounting element may be hinged into said carrier structure via a slot-shaped opening. 
     
     
         2 . The furniture system according to  claim 1 , wherein said mounting element comprises an opening for receiving said appliance. 
     
     
         3 . The furniture system according to  claim 1 , wherein said slot-shaped opening extends substantially horizontally. 
     
     
         4 . The furniture system according to  claim 3 , wherein said mounting element is substantially ashlar-formed, wherein in mounting position said slot-shaped opening extends parallel to an ashlar surface. 
     
     
         5 . The furniture system according to  claim 4 , wherein said slot-shaped opening is arranged nearby an ashlar surface. 
     
     
         6 . The furniture system according to  claim 2 , wherein the major part of said mounting element extends in mounting position underneath an upper edge of said carrier structure. 
     
     
         7 . The furniture system according to  claim 3 , wherein the major part of said mounting element extends in mounting position underneath an upper edge of said carrier structure. 
     
     
         8 . The furniture system according to  claim 4 , wherein the major part of said mounting element extends in mounting position underneath an upper edge of said carrier structure. 
     
     
         9 . The furniture system according to  claim 5 , wherein the major part of said mounting element extends in mounting position underneath an upper edge of said carrier structure. 
     
     
         10 . The furniture system according to  claim 6 , wherein in the mounting position of said mounting element said opening for receiving an appliance is arranged underneath said upper edge of said carrier structure. 
     
     
         11 . The furniture system according to  claim 1 , wherein said carrier structure comprises a desktop that may be received in that slot-shaped opening at least in sections. 
     
     
         12 . The furniture system according to  claim 2 , wherein said slot-shaped opening extends substantially horizontally. 
     
     
         13 . A carrier structure for a furniture system, comprising at least three table legs and a connection frame, wherein said table legs are formed as cross profiles having two profile shoulders that face each other and expand at a profile end to form an edge run of said connection frame, said table legs having two further profile shoulders oriented perpendicular to an inner surface of said connection frame, wherein one of said two further profile shoulders abuts on said inner surface of said connection frame. 
     
     
         14 . The carrier structure according to  claim 13 , wherein said connection frame comprises a lug having a groove, wherein said lug extends substantially parallel to said inner surface of said connection frame and wherein said expanded profile shoulders may be received between said inner surface of said connection frame and said lug, in such a way that one of said further profile shoulders impinges said groove. 
     
     
         15 . The carrier structure according to  claim 13 , comprising a module that receives said connection frame at least in sections. 
     
     
         16 . The carrier structure according to  claim 14 , comprising a module that receives said connection frame at least in sections. 
     
     
         17 . The carrier structure according to  claim 15 , wherein said module is a desktop, a shelf-board, a kitchen work plate, a cabinet module or a kitchen module with utility sink and/or hearth. 
     
     
         18 . The carrier structure according to  claim 16 , wherein said module is a desktop, a shelf-board, a kitchen work plate, a cabinet module or a kitchen module with utility sink and/or hearth.
