ABSTRACT:
Knockdown upholstered furniture has basic components coupled together by male and female connectors permitting simple assembly and disassembly to facilitate shipping and storage without requiring tools or hardware. Each male connector has hook-like lugs projecting outwardly from the connector with an inclined inner edge for wedging the lugs in place once they are inserted through openings in each female connector, and the connectors are surrounded with resiliently padded upholstery such that the connectors are recessed within the outer edges of the upholstery which resiliently forces the male and female connectors into secure engagement with each other. Preferably, the female connectors have an irregular surface adjacent the openings therein to engage irregular surfaces on the inner edges of the lugs of the male connectors.
