Drawer which can be dismantled and stacked
The invention relates to a drawer for furniture, said drawer being dismantled, for assembly using practically no tools. The drawer consists of: two lateral wall elements, a front-and rear-face wall element that consist of a base profile, and a drawer base that consists of several identical base elements. The base element consists of a profile that has a tongue profile edge and a groove profile edge. Thus, any number of base elements can be mechanically joined together and then dismantled to form a surface. A drawer of equal size without a base surface may be connected to the drawer with a base surface.
1. A drawer, which can be dismounted, for nearly no-tools assembly, and having extendibility in height and extendibility in its internal layout, comprising:
a frame structure comprising two side wall elements, a front wall element, and a rear wall element, the frame structure having a height;
a plurality of bottom elements capable of being mounted onto the frame structure and which can be dismounted from the frame structure;
wherein the side wall elements each define a recess and a cylindrical chamber;
the rear wall element defines a recess and a pair of counterbores;
the front wall element defines a recess and a pair of threaded bores;
a pair of connecting elements, wherein the side wall elements are connected with the rear wall element and the front wall element by the connecting elements passing from the counterbores in the rear wall element, through the cylindrical chambers in the side wall elements, and to the threaded bores in the front wall element;
the bottom elements have a key profile edge and a groove profile edge wherein the key profile edge of a bottom element mechanically and correspondingly engages the groove profile edge of an adjacent bottom element whereby a combined base surface is manufactured;
wherein the recesses in the side wall elements, the front wall element, and the rear wall element are each shaped to receive a portion of the bottom elements whereby the plurality of bottom elements forming the combined base surface are held in the frame structure; and
wherein an additional and equal-sized frame structure comprising two side wall elements, a rear wall element, and a front wall element connected with connecting elements is placed onto the frame structure of the drawer for extending the height of the drawer and is connected to the frame structure of the drawer with connecting battens and each of the connecting battens defines a protrusion and the protrusions comprise an additional guiding plane in the drawer whereby the additional guiding plane may be employed to receive cutlery inserts or trays.
2. The drawer according to claim 1 further comprising a cutlery insert supported by the protrusions.
3. The drawer according to claim 1 further comprising a tray supported by the protrusions.
