ABSTRACT:
An improved cabinet assembly for quick and easy assembly into various configurations. The assembly is characterized in one embodiment, by a unique joint where three framework members meet. A vertical post is equipped with vertically spaced slots. A first crossbar has prongs at one end which are snugly received in the slots, and, upon vertical movement of the crossbar, lock the crossbar to the post. A second crossbar joins the first crossbar and vertical post at mutually perpendicular angles, and is equipped with two pins which are snugly received in holes in the post. When both crossbars are in position, a bolt is inserted through the post and into the end of the second crossbar where it is secured. The bolt engages an edge of one of the prongs of the first crossbar, preventing vertical movement of the crossbar to retain it in the locked position. In another embodiment, the assembly is characterized by a drawer slide which has prongs at each end receivable in the facing slots of two parallel vertical posts. The prongs at one end of the drawer slide are adjustable lengthwise of the slide, allowing the slide to be rigidly inserted after the cabinet is assembled.
