Patent

CA 2137770

A drawer assembly is disclosed comprising a bottom panel (18), a rear panel (20), and first and second side panels (14,16) unitarily formed as an integral molding of plastics material, the panels being joined along edges by a flexible web (24) of plastic material. Hook projections (32) and a rib projection (34) of the side panels lock over pinprojections (38) and grooves (42), respectively, of the rear panel to lock the rear and side panels into an upright configuration. A front panel (22) is provided which attaches to forward end surfaces of the side panels (14,16) to enclose the box. An end flange (48) is positioned along and project outward from the forward end surfaces of each side panel, the end flange being of T-shaped sectional profile and having a width which increases from a top end (50) to a bottom end (52). A pair of slots (54) extend into an inward surface of the front panel (22), each slot being of inverted T-shaped sectional profile and having a width which increases from a top end (56) to a bottom end (58). Assembly of he front panel (22) to the side panels (14,16) is achieved by moving the front panel downward against the forward end surfaces of the side panels, as the flanges (48) enter and progress down within the slots (54). Progressive frictional engagement between the flanges (48) and slot sidewalls cause the downward movement of the front panel to terminate when the front panel is in its intended final position.
