ABSTRACT:
A universal brace for use in bracing a wide variety of members, such as corner joints of furniture and the like, and being characterized by a versatile and adjustable construction, as follows. A body member of two telescoping sections is provided. Rows of transversely extending apertures are formed through each of the sections for providing access passageways through each of the sections disposed at approximately 90.degree. with respect to each other and are positioned for respective alignment of said apertures and said passageways of the sections by adjusting the relative telescopic positions of the sections. A body locking pin is removably inserted through any desired set of aligned apertures and passageways for locking the sections of the body member in desired adjusted length. Devices are provided on the ends of each of the sections of the body member for contacting the members to be braced. Whereby, the brace may be linearly adjusted lengthwise and the sections of the body member may be disengaged and one of the sections rotated and again engaged telescopically with the other of the sections for providing versatility in desired placement of the contacting members on the outer ends of the sections of the body member and versatility in use of the brace.
