ABSTRACT:
A knockdown storage unit, such as a chest of drawers, a partitioned container or knockdown furniture piece for home and office storage comprising a body formed of one or more blanks, cut and scored so each blank can be readily folded and connected into an erected storage unit body wherein each blank is provided with complimentary interlocking tabs which are integrally formed along the opposed marginal edge portion of the respective blanks. The complimentary interlocking tabs include a T-shaped tab blanked out of a marginal flap hingedly connected along a marginal portion of the blank and a slotted tab connected to the opposite edge of the blank. The arrangement is such that the respective blank is folded and interconnected by interlocking the T-shaped tab with the complimentary slotted tab in the erected position whereby the respective tabs are positively interlocked. Suitable partitions and/or drawers are supported by the side walls of the erected body for storing various articles. The partitions are formed of blank sheet material, which is reversely folded, to define a doubled wall partition in a manner whereby the partition is supported between the opposed wall portions of the erected body. The partitions may extend transversely and/or longitudinally within the erected body to partition the body into a plurality of individual compartments. In an alternate arrangement, a drawer component may be slidably supported on the partition to define a chest of drawers.
