ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a fitting comprising a male component and a female component respectively to be attached to furniture wall parts to be joined together normal to one another. The former comprises a male member and a shank bearing circumferential ribs to hold the shank in a hole bored in one of the furniture parts, and the latter is in the form a part cylindrical body likewise ribbed to hold the body in a hole bored in the other furniture part. The body constitutes a socket formed to interrupt the lateral wall of the body so that the socket opens radially of the body; the hole formed in the respective furniture part being of complementary form to interrupt an end edge of the furniture part. The male member further comprises a recess in part delineated by a ledge and tapered end faces of flanges of the male member; and the female component further comprises a resilient tongue. With the components secured to their respective furniture parts, the male member is then axially entered into the socket but so that it connects with its shank radially of the socket via the radial opening of the socket and the interrupted end edge of respective furniture part. This leaves the recess accessible from the exterior of the fitting so that by insertion of a suitable tool e.g. a screwdriver blade, the tongue can be dislodged from the recess of the male member to permit disengagement of the two fitting parts.
