ABSTRACT:
A molded plastic drawer for use in cabinets having spaced, parallel guide rails comprises a normally horizontally disposed bottom wall and front, side and back walls extending upwardly from the bottom wall. The bottom wall is provided with guide members which engage the lower guide rails of the cabinet to guide the drawer during movement between opened and closed conditions. The side and back walls of the cabinet extend to horizontal lips and may be provided with ribs which reinforce the walls and the lips. The horizontal lip of the back wall is positioned above the lips of the side wall and extends across the full width of the drawer to define an elongate shoulder positioned for engagement with structure of the cabinet when the drawer is in the opened condition to prevent the drawer from falling out of the cabinet. The upper portion of the back wall further comprises grooves which receive the upper guide rails of the cabinet and thereby cooperates with guide portions on the bottom wall to guide the drawer during inward and outward movement relative to the cabinet.
