ABSTRACT:
A catch means as described which when fitted to co-operating parts of a piece of furniture enable those co-operating parts to be moved apart by a small amount after which, following manipulation of the catch means, may be more fully moved apart.
The catch means is said to comprise a stop element and a hooked element the two elements being mountable on the parts of the piece of furniture. The hooked element comprises an elongate member having a first hook portion formed at one end thereof and at least one second hook portion formed along the length of it. The first hook portion of each of the said at least one second hook portions extend in different directions from the axis of the elongate member. The other end of the elongate members adapted for mounting on one of the parts of the piece of furniture in a number of different predetermined orientations enabling the stop means to engage one of the first and at least one second hook portions to prevent extended movement of the two parts by more than a predetermined amount corresponding to the orientation in which the hook member is mounted. In a preferred arrangement the hooked element is provided with two hooks facing in opposite directions.
