Description

La présente invention concerne des ensembles de pièces qui permettent la construction facile et rapide d'un ou de plusieurs tiroirs et leur montage dans des meubles, en particulier dans des meubles en pièces détachées à assembler soi-même.The present invention relates to sets of parts which allow the easy and rapid construction of one or more drawers and their mounting in furniture, in particular in pieces of furniture to be assembled yourself.

On connaît plusieurs systèmes de montage de tiroirs dans des meubles.Several systems are known for mounting drawers in furniture.

En particulier, il est bien connu de faire coulisser dans un casier de meuble un tiroir dont chacune des faces externes des côtés est pourvue d'une ou de plusieurs rainures destinées à recevoir une ou plusieurs nervures fixées sur les faces internes des côtés du casier.In particular, it is well known to slide a drawer in a furniture rack, each of the outer sides of the sides is provided with one or more grooves intended to receive one or more ribs fixed on the inner faces of the sides of the rack.

Il est encore connu de faire coulisser le tiroir en faisant glisser des lattes montées sur les faces externes des côtés du tiroir sur d'autres lattes montées, elles, sur les faces internes des côtés du casier.It is also known to slide the drawer by sliding the slats mounted on the external faces of the sides of the drawer on other slats mounted, them, on the internal faces of the sides of the rack.

De nombreuses variantes de meubles à assembler soi-même à partir de pièces vendues séparément ont été mises au point et commercialisées.Many variants of furniture to assemble yourself from parts sold separately have been developed and marketed.

Un problème qui se pose dans ce type de meubles est la réalisation de tiroirs qui puissent également être assemblés par l'acheteur à partir de pièces détachées et ce d'une manière simple, sans utiliser de vis, ni de clous, ni de colle, ni d'outils.A problem which arises in this type of furniture is the production of drawers which can also be assembled by the buyer from spare parts and this in a simple manner, without using screws, nails or glue, no tools.

Le montage du ou des tiroirs dans un tel meuble doit également pouvoir se faire d'une manière simple et rapide, de même que le démontage hors de ce meuble et le désassemblage des pièces.The assembly of the drawer (s) in such a piece of furniture must also be able to be done in a simple and rapid manner, as well as the disassembly out of this piece of furniture and the disassembly of the parts.

La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces problèmes en fournissant des ensembles de pièces détachées assemblables par simple emboîtement, permet­tant la construction de tiroirs et leur montage dans des meubles. Les tiroirs obtenus peuvent être facile­ment démontés hors des dits meubles et désassemblés.The object of the present invention is to remedy these problems by providing sets of parts. spare parts that can be assembled by simple fitting, allowing the construction of drawers and their mounting in furniture. The drawers obtained can be easily disassembled from the said furniture and disassembled.

Un autre but de l'invention est de fournir des ensembles de pièces vendues séparément dont l'assem­blage, le montage, le démontage et le désassemblage puissent être réalisés sans outils.Another object of the invention is to provide sets of parts sold separately, the assembly, assembly, disassembly and disassembly of which can be carried out without tools.

Un autre but de l'invention est de fournir des ensembles de pièces permettant de construire des tiroirs pour des meubles à assembler soi-même, main­tenus par des montants qui débordent vers l'intérieur des casiers, c'est-à-dire que ces montants sont disposés de façon telle que la distance comprise entre les faces internes des côtés d'un casier est plus grande que la distance comprise entre les bords internes des montants disposés à l'avant du casier.Another object of the invention is to provide sets of parts making it possible to construct drawers for furniture to be assembled yourself, held by uprights which project towards the interior of the lockers, that is to say that these uprights are arranged in such a way that the distance between the internal faces of the sides of a rack is greater than the distance between the internal edges of the uprights arranged in front of the rack.

En particulier, un but de l'invention est de fournir des tiroirs démontables pour des meubles tels que ceux dont le système de construction est décrit dans le brevet français n° 1 245 776 de Henry George KEWLEY, en utilisant pour la construction de ces tiroirs un système analogue au système de construction de ce type de meubles.In particular, an object of the invention is to provide removable drawers for furniture such as those whose construction system is described in French patent n ° 1 245 776 by Henry George KEWLEY, using for the construction of these drawers a system analogous to the construction system of this type of furniture.

Ce système de construction est décrit dans le brevet cité ci-dessus et sera mieux compris dans la partie du présent mémoire descriptif qui se réfère aux figures.This construction system is described in the patent cited above and will be better understood in the part of this specification which refers to the figures.

La présente invention sera en effet décrite suivant le cas particulier où un ou des tiroirs sont montés dans un meuble construit selon le système décrit dans le brevet français n° 1 245 776.The present invention will in fact be described according to the particular case where one or more drawers are mounted in a piece of furniture constructed according to the system described in French patent n ° 1 245 776.

La dite invention concerne un ensemble de pièces pour la construction d'un ou de plusieurs tiroirs et pour leur montage dans un casier de meuble maintenu par des montants antérieurs et postérieurs, la distance comprise entre les faces internes des côtés du dit casier étant plus grande que l'espace libre entre les montants antérieurs.Said invention relates to a set of parts for the construction of one or more drawers and for their mounting in a cabinet locker maintained by anterior and posterior uprights, the distance between the internal faces of the sides of said rack being greater than the free space between the anterior uprights.

L'ensemble des pièces comporte deux panneaux de support identiques entre eux et portant autant de rainures horizontales qu'il y a de tiroirs à monter et, pour chaque tiroir, un panneau avant et un panneau arrière identiques entre eux, un panneau gauche et un panneau droit identiques entre eux, un panneau de fond et quatre cornières métalliques dont chaque aile est munie d'un rebord rentrant qui lui est perpendiculaire.The set of parts has two identical support panels between them and carrying as many horizontal grooves as there are drawers to be mounted and, for each drawer, a front panel and a rear panel identical to each other, a left panel and a straight panel identical to each other, a bottom panel and four metal angles, each wing of which is provided with a re-entrant flange which is perpendicular thereto.

Les panneaux avant et arrière sont pourvus, dans la partie inférieure de leur face interne, d'une rainure horizontale. Les panneaux gauche et droit ont une hauteur égale à celle comprise entre le bord supérieur d'un des panneaux avant ou arrière et le bord supérieur de la rainure horizontale du dit panneau.The front and rear panels are provided, in the lower part of their internal face, with a horizontal groove. The left and right panels have a height equal to that between the upper edge of one of the front or rear panels and the upper edge of the horizontal groove of said panel.

Les panneaux avant, arrière, gauche et droit sont pourvus d'un onglet à 45° à chacun de leurs bords latéraux du côté de leur face interne et sont munis, sur leur face externe, de deux rainures verticales près de ces bords latéraux.The front, rear, left and right panels are provided with a 45 ° tab at each of their lateral edges on the side of their internal face and are provided, on their external face, with two vertical grooves near these lateral edges.

Ces panneaux peuvent ainsi être assemblés deux à deux au moyen des dites cornières, dont chaque rebord s'engage dans une rainure verticale.These panels can thus be assembled two by two by means of said angles, each edge of which engages in a vertical groove.

Le panneau de fond, rectangulaire, a des dimensions telles qu'il s'engage par deux de ses côtés dans les rainures horizontales des panneaux avant et arrière et qu'une languette déborde de part et d'autre des faces externes des panneaux gauche et droit. Chacune de ces languettes peut coulisser dans une des rainures horizontales prévues sur la face interne de chaque panneau de support.The rectangular bottom panel has dimensions such that it engages on two of its sides in the horizontal grooves of the front and rear panels and that a tongue projects beyond either side of the external faces of the left panels and law. Each of these tabs can slide in one of the horizontal grooves provided on the internal face of each support panel.

Chacun des panneaux de support a une longueur telle qu'il peut se loger entre un montant antérieur et un montant postérieur le long de la face interne d'un côté du casier et une épaisseur telle que la distance entre les faces internes des panneaux de support mis en place est plus petite que l'espace libre entre les montants antérieurs.Each of the support panels has a length such that it can be accommodated between an anterior upright and a posterior upright along the internal face of one side of the rack and a thickness such that the distance between the internal faces of the support panels put in place is less than l space between the front uprights.

Le simple emboîtement des pièces de l'ensemble de pièces permet l'assemblage d'un ou plusieurs tiroirs et leur montage dans un casier de meuble. L'opération inverse permet le démontage du ou des tiroirs hors du casier et le désassemblage de ces tiroirs.The simple interlocking of the parts of the set of parts allows the assembly of one or more drawers and their mounting in a cabinet locker. The reverse operation allows disassembly of the drawer (s) outside the locker and disassembly of these drawers.

Suivant une forme d'exécution avantageuse de l'invention, chacune des ailes de chaque cornière métallique a une hauteur égale à celle du panneau dans la rainure verticale duquel le rebord de la dite aile s'engage.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, each of the wings of each metal angle has a height equal to that of the panel in the vertical groove from which the edge of said wing engages.

Avantageusement, l'un des panneaux identiques avant et arrière est percé de trous permettant la fixation d'une poignée, l'autre panneau étant percé d'un seul trou permettant la fixation d'un bouton.Advantageously, one of the identical front and rear panels is pierced with holes allowing the fixing of a handle, the other panel being pierced with a single hole allowing the fixing of a button.

Suivant une réalisation de l'invention, chaque panneau de support a une hauteur égale à la hauteur interne d'un casier, et l'espace interne du dit casier est entièrement occupé par des tiroirs.According to an embodiment of the invention, each support panel has a height equal to the internal height of a rack, and the internal space of said rack is entirely occupied by drawers.

Suivant une autre réalisation de l'invention, l'ensemble des pièces comporte, en outre, un panneau formant tablette, qui s'appuie sur le bord supérieur de chacun des panneaux de support, les dits panneaux de support ayant une hauteur inférieure à la hauteur interne du casier.According to another embodiment of the invention, the set of parts further comprises a panel forming a shelf, which rests on the upper edge of each of the support panels, the said support panels having a height less than the internal height of the locker.

Suivant une forme préférée de réalisation de l'invention, au moins un des deux panneaux de support est muni, pour chaque tiroir à monter dans le casier, d'une lamelle flexible. Chaque lamelle flexible est vissée par une extremité sous une rainure horizontale, du côté du panneau de support destiné à être disposé vers l'avant du casier. Son autre extrémité est destinée à servir d'arrêt au tiroir. Cette extrémité est libre et écartée du panneau de support, de façon à être dirigée vers le fond du casier après le montage du panneau de support dans le casier.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, at least one of the two support panels is provided, for each drawer to be mounted in the rack, with a flexible strip. Each flexible strip is screwed at one end under a horizontal groove, on the side of the support panel intended to be disposed towards the front of the rack. Its other end is intended to serve as a stop for the drawer. This end is free and spaced from the support panel, so as to be directed towards the bottom of the rack after the mounting of the support panel in the rack.

La Fig. 1 montre un meuble 1 composé de trois casiers 2, 3, 4 séparés les uns des autres par des plaques 5 constituant le fond de chacun des casiers 2, 3, 4. Chacune de ces plaques 5 est soutenue par une traverse avant 6, une traverse arrière 7 et deux traverses latérales 8. Chaque traverse arrière 7 porte une plaque arrière 9 constituant le dos du casier. Chacune des traverses latérales 8 porte un côté 10 du casier 2, 3, 4.Fig. 1 shows a piece of furniture 1 composed of three compartments 2, 3, 4 separated from each other by plates 5 constituting the bottom of each of the compartments 2, 3, 4. Each of these plates 5 is supported by a front cross member 6, a rear cross member 7 and two lateral crosspieces 8. Each rear crosspiece 7 carries a rear plate 9 constituting the back of the rack. Each of the lateral crosspieces 8 carries a side 10 of the rack 2, 3, 4.

Le meuble 1 est maintenu par deux montants antérieurs 11 et deux montants postérieurs 12, les montants antérieurs 11 et postérieurs 12 étant iden­tiques quant à leur forme et étant constitués de profilés ayant chacun deux ailes 13 perpendiculaires entre elles (montrées sur la Fig. 2). Chaque aile 13 possède un rebord rentrant 14 qui lui est perpendi­culaire. Les montants 11 et 12 seront montrés plus en détail sur la Fig. 2. Le casier 2 est muni de tiroirs 15 qui seront montrés en détail sur les Fig. 3 à 6. Le tiroir 15 du dessous est muni d'un bouton 16, tandis que le tiroir 15 du dessus est muni d'une poignée 17.Furniture 1 is held by two front uprights 11 and two rear uprights 12, the front uprights 11 and rear 12 being identical in shape and made up of profiles each having two wings 13 perpendicular to each other (shown in Fig. 2) . Each wing 13 has a re-entrant flange 14 which is perpendicular thereto. The uprights 11 and 12 will be shown in more detail in FIG. 2. The rack 2 is provided with drawers 15 which will be shown in detail in FIGS. 3 to 6. The drawer 15 below is provided with a button 16, while the drawer 15 above is provided with a handle 17.

Dans le casier 3 sont mis en place deux panneaux de support 18 portant autant de rainures horizontales 19 que l'on souhaite monter de tiroirs 15 dans le casier 3. Dans la forme de réalisation illus­trée sur la Fig. 1, le casier 3 est destiné à recevoir trois tiroirs 15.In the rack 3, two support panels 18 are fitted, carrying as many horizontal grooves 19 as there are drawers 15 in the rack 3. In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1, the rack 3 is intended to receive three drawers 15.

Chaque panneau de support 18 repose sur la plaque 5 constituant le fond du casier 3. Il est placé entre un montant antérieur 11 et un montant postérieur 12. Les panneaux de support 18 ne sont pas fixés dans le meuble mais seront maintenus en place par les tiroirs 15 lorsque ceux-ci seront montés dans le casier 3.Each support panel 18 rests on the plate 5 constituting the bottom of the rack 3. It is placed between an anterior upright 11 and a posterior upright 12. The support panels 18 are not fixed in the cabinet but will be held in place by the drawers 15 when these are fitted in rack 3.

La structure du meuble 1 montré sur la Fig. 1 et la manière d'y monter des tiroirs 15 seront mieux comprises en se référant aux Fig. 2 à 6.The structure of the cabinet 1 shown in FIG. 1 and the manner of mounting drawers 15 will be better understood by referring to Figs. 2 to 6.

La Fig. 2 montre les montants antérieurs 11 et les montants postérieurs 12 et la façon dont ils permettent l'assemblage des traverses 6, 7 et 8. Chacune des traverses 6, 7 et 8 est coupée à onglet à 45° à ses bords latéraux, du côté de sa face interne, et porte, sur sa face externe, deux rainures verticales 20 situées chacune près d'une des deux extrémités des dites traverses 6, 7 et 8.Fig. 2 shows the anterior uprights 11 and the posterior uprights 12 and the way in which they allow the assembly of the crosspieces 6, 7 and 8. Each of the crosspieces 6, 7 and 8 is miter cut at 45 ° at its lateral edges, on the side of its internal face, and carries, on its external face, two vertical grooves 20 each located near one of the two ends of said sleepers 6, 7 and 8.

Les montants 11 et 12 permettent ainsi d'assembler les traverses 6, 7 et 8 deux à deux à angle droit, les rebords rentrants 14 des ailes 13 s'enga­geant chacun dans une rainure verticale 20 d'une traverse 6, 7 ou 8.The uprights 11 and 12 thus make it possible to assemble the crosspieces 6, 7 and 8 two by two at a right angle, the re-entrant flanges 14 of the wings 13 each engaging in a vertical groove 20 of a crosspiece 6, 7 or 8.

Chacune des traverses latérales 8 est pourvue, sur toute la longueur de sa face supérieure, d'une rainure 21 dans laquelle, lors de la construction du meuble 1, se logera le côté 10 du casier 2. La traverse 7 est de même pourvue d'une rainure 22 dans laquelle se logera la plaque arrière 9 du casier 2.Each of the lateral crosspieces 8 is provided, along the entire length of its upper face, with a groove 21 in which, during the construction of the cabinet 1, the side 10 of the rack 2 will be housed. The crosspiece 7 is likewise provided with a groove 22 in which the rear plate 9 of the rack 2 will be housed.

La plaque 5, qui constitue le fond du casier 2, repose sur les traverses 6, 7 et 8 grâce à une feuillure 23 ménagée sur l'arête supérieure de chacune des dites traverses 6, 7 et 8. Cette feuillure 23 est représentée aux Fig. 5 et 6.The plate 5, which constitutes the bottom of the rack 2, rests on the crosspieces 6, 7 and 8 by virtue of a rebate 23 formed on the upper edge of each of said crosspieces 6, 7 and 8. This rebate 23 is shown in FIGS. . 5 and 6.

La traverse avant 6 ne comporte pas de rainure destinée à recevoir de plaque. Il subsiste à l'avant du casier un espace libre entre les montants antérieurs 11. Cet espace libre est plus petit que la distance comprise entre les faces internes des côtés 10 du casier 2.The front crossmember 6 does not have a groove intended to receive a plate. There remains at the front of the rack a free space between the front uprights 11. This free space is smaller than the distance between the internal faces of the sides 10 of the rack 2.

La Fig. 3 montre un ensemble de pièces 24 permettant la construction d'un tiroir 15 et son montage dans un meuble 1.Fig. 3 shows a set of parts 24 allowing the construction of a drawer 15 and its mounting in a cabinet 1.

L'ensemble 24 comporte des panneaux 25 avant et arrière identiques entre eux. Chacun de ces panneaux 25 avant et arrière est pourvu, dans la partie infé­rieure de sa face interne, d'une rainure horizontale 26.The assembly 24 has front and rear panels 25 identical to each other. Each of these front and rear panels 25 is provided, in the lower part of its internal face, with a horizontal groove 26.

Il comporte également des panneaux 27 gauche et droit identiques entre eux. Chacun de ces panneaux 27 a une hauteur, mesurée de son bord supérieur à son bord inférieur, qui est égale à la hauteur comprise entre le bord supérieur d'un panneau 25 avant ou arrière et le bord supérieur de la rainure horizontale 26 du dit panneau 25.It also has panels 27 left and right identical to each other. Each of these panels 27 has a height, measured from its upper edge to its lower edge, which is equal to the height between the upper edge of a front or rear panel 25 and the upper edge of the horizontal groove 26 of said panel 25.

Chacun des panneaux 25 et 27 est pourvu d'un onglet à 45°, 28, ménagé à la face interne de chacun de ses bords latéraux.Each of the panels 25 and 27 is provided with a 45 ° tab, 28, formed on the internal face of each of its lateral edges.

Chaque panneau 25 est muni, sur sa face externe, de rainures verticales 29 et chaque panneau 27 est muni, sur sa face externe, de rainures verticales 30.Each panel 25 is provided on its outer face with vertical grooves 29 and each panel 27 is provided on its outer face with vertical grooves 30.

Chacune des rainures 29 est proche d'une extrémité d'un panneau 25 et chacune des rainures 30 est proche d'une extrémité d'un panneau 27.Each of the grooves 29 is close to one end of a panel 25 and each of the grooves 30 is close to one end of a panel 27.

Les panneaux 25 et 27 sont assemblés entre eux, deux à deux, au moyen de cornières 31 et 32 de manière à former un cadre, les bords supérieurs des panneaux 25 et 27 étant situés dans un même plan horizontal.The panels 25 and 27 are assembled together, two by two, by means of angles 31 and 32 so as to form a frame, the upper edges of the panels 25 and 27 being located in the same horizontal plane.

Chacune des cornières 31 est symétrique d'une cornière 32. Chacune de ces cornières 31, 32 possède une aile courte 33 munie d'un rebord rentrant 34 qui lui est perpendiculaire, et une aile longue 35 munie d'un rebord rentrant 36 qui lui est perpendiculaire.Each of the angles 31 is symmetrical of an angle 32. Each of these angles 31, 32 has a short wing 33 provided with a re-entrant edge 34 which is perpendicular thereto, and a long wing 35 provided with a re-entrant edge 36 which is perpendicular.

La hauteur de chaque aile courte 33 et de son rebord rentrant 34 est égale à la hauteur des panneaux 27, tandis que la hauteur de chaque aile longue 35 et de son rebord rentrant 36 est égale à la hauteur des panneaux 25.The height of each short wing 33 and its inside edge 34 is equal to the height of the panels 27, while the height of each long wing 35 and its inside edge 36 is equal to the height of the panels 25.

Lorsqu'un panneau 25 est assemblé avec un panneau 27 de manière que les onglets 28 de chacun des deux panneaux 25 et 27 se touchent, chaque rebord rentrant 34 d'une cornière 31 ou 32 est engagé dans une rainure verticale 30 du panneau 27, tandis que le rebord rentrant 35 de la même cornière est engagé dans une rainure verticale 29 du panneau 25.When a panel 25 is assembled with a panel 27 so that the tabs 28 of each of the two panels 25 and 27 touch each other, each edge re-entering 34 of an angle iron 31 or 32 is engaged in a vertical groove 30 of the panel 27, while the re-entrant flange 35 of the same angle iron is engaged in a vertical groove 29 of the panel 25.

Les panneaux 25 et 27 sont ainsi assemblés à angle droit.The panels 25 and 27 are thus assembled at a right angle.

Les cornières 31, 32 ont une section identique à celle des montants 11 et 12 et le système d'assem­blage des panneaux 25, 27 du tiroir 15 est analogue au système d'assemblage des traverses 6, 7, 8.The angles 31, 32 have a section identical to that of the uprights 11 and 12 and the assembly system of the panels 25, 27 of the drawer 15 is analogous to the assembly system of the crosspieces 6, 7, 8.

Etant donné la hauteur des panneaux 27, qui est égale à la hauteur d'un panneau 25 mesurée de son bord supérieur au bord supérieur de sa rainure hori­zontale 26, la dite rainure 26 reste libre lors de l'assemblage des panneaux 25 et 27.Given the height of the panels 27, which is equal to the height of a panel 25 measured from its upper edge to the upper edge of its horizontal groove 26, said groove 26 remains free during the assembly of the panels 25 and 27.

Le panneau de fond 37 est introduit par ses deux côtés 38 dans les rainures horizontales 26 des panneaux 25.The bottom panel 37 is introduced by its two sides 38 into the horizontal grooves 26 of the panels 25.

La longueur des côtés 38 du panneau de fond 37 est plus grande que la longueur des rainures hori­zontales 26 des panneaux 25, ce qui a pour conséquence que le panneau de fond 37 dépasse à chaque extrémité des rainures horizontales 26 des panneaux 25.The length of the sides 38 of the bottom panel 37 is greater than the length of the horizontal grooves 26 of the panels 25, which means that the bottom panel 37 protrudes at each end from the horizontal grooves 26 of the panels 25.

Lorsque le tiroir 15 est construit, le panneau de fond 37 passe en dessous des panneaux 27. Des languettes 39, non montrées sur la Fig. 3 et qui sont vues en détail sur les Fig. 4 et 5, débordent vers l'extérieur de part et d'autre des faces externes des panneaux 27. Chacune des languettes 39 s'engage dans une des rainures horizontales 19 d'un panneau de support 18. Les languettes 39 jouent le rôle de glis­sière et permettent de faire glisser le tiroir 15 dans le casier 2, en faisant coulisser chaque languette 39 dans une rainure horizontale 19 d'un panneau de support 18.When the drawer 15 is constructed, the bottom panel 37 passes below the panels 27. Tabs 39, not shown in FIG. 3 and which are seen in detail in FIGS. 4 and 5, project towards the outside on either side of the external faces of the panels 27. Each of the tongues 39 engages in one of the horizontal grooves 19 of a support panel 18. The tongues 39 play the role of slide and allow the drawer 15 to slide in the rack 2, by sliding each tab 39 in a horizontal groove 19 of a support panel 18.

Les Fig. 4, 5 et 6 montrent des tiroirs 15 montés dans un casier 2 d'un meuble 1.Figs. 4, 5 and 6 show drawers 15 mounted in a rack 2 of a piece of furniture 1.

La Fig. 4 permet de voir des tasseaux 40 placés à l'intérieur des montants antérieurs 11 et postérieurs 12. Ces tasseaux 40 sont bloqués à l'inté­rieur des montants 11 et 12 par les rebords rentrants 14 de ces montants.Fig. 4 makes it possible to see cleats 40 placed inside the anterior 11 and posterior uprights 12. These cleats 40 are blocked inside the uprights 11 and 12 by the re-entrant flanges 14 of these uprights.

Ces tasseaux 40 sont placés verticalement entre les traverses 6, 7 et 8 soutenant la plaque de fond 5 du casier 2 et les traverses 6, 7 et 8 soutenant la plaque de fond 5 du casier 3.These battens 40 are placed vertically between the crosspieces 6, 7 and 8 supporting the bottom plate 5 of the rack 2 and the crosspieces 6, 7 and 8 supporting the bottom plate 5 of the rack 3.

La hauteur des panneaux de support 13 est égale à la hauteur des tasseaux 40, qui détermine la hauteur du casier 2.The height of the support panels 13 is equal to the height of the cleats 40, which determines the height of the rack 2.

Chacun des côtés 10 du casier 2 se loge à chacune de ses extrémités verticales dans une rainure 41 d'un tasseau 40, l'un des tasseaux 40 étant logé dans un montant antérieur 11 et l'autre de ces tasseaux 40 étant logé dans un montant postérieur 12.Each of the sides 10 of the rack 2 is housed at each of its vertical ends in a groove 41 of a cleat 40, one of the cleats 40 being housed in an anterior upright 11 and the other of these cleats 40 being housed in a posterior upright 12.

En outre, la plaque arrière 9 du casier 2 est logée dans les rainures 41 des tasseaux 40 logés dans les montants postérieurs 12.In addition, the rear plate 9 of the rack 2 is housed in the grooves 41 of the cleats 40 housed in the rear uprights 12.

Sur les Fig. 4 et 5, on distingue les languettes 39 mentionnées dans la description de la Fig. 3. La Fig. 5 permet, en outre, de voir comment ces languettes 39 s'engagent dans les rainures horizontales 19 des panneaux de support 18.In Figs. 4 and 5, there are the tongues 39 mentioned in the description of FIG. 3. Fig. 5 also makes it possible to see how these tongues 39 engage in the horizontal grooves 19 of the support panels 18.

Sur les Fig. 1, 3, 4 et 6, on remarque la présence de lamelles flexibles 42 qu servent d'arrêts aux tiroirs 15. Ces lamelles flexibles 42 sont vissées, par une de leurs extrémités, contre les panneaux de support 18, sous les rainures horizontales 19. Chaque lamelle flexible 42 est fixée à environ trois centi­mètres du côté du panneau de support 18 destiné à être disposé vers l'avant du casier 2, 3 ou 4. Son extrémité libre est dirigée vers le fond du casier 2, 3 ou 4, dans lequel elle est placée. En l'absence de sollicita­tions extérieures, cette extrémité libre est écartée du panneau de support 18, d'une distance d'environ un centimètre.In Figs. 1, 3, 4 and 6, we note the presence of flexible strips 42 which serve as stops for the drawers 15. These flexible strips 42 are screwed, by one of their ends, against the support panels 18, under the horizontal grooves 19 Each flexible strip 42 is fixed approximately three centimeters from the side of the support panel 18 intended to be disposed towards the front of the rack 2, 3 or 4. Its end free is directed towards the bottom of the locker 2, 3 or 4, in which it is placed. In the absence of external stresses, this free end is moved away from the support panel 18 by a distance of approximately one centimeter.

Lorsqu'un tiroir 15 est introduit dans un casier 2, 3 ou 4 le long des rainures horizontales 19, les extrémités libres des lamelles flexibles 42 sont rabattues contre les panneaux de support 18 gauche et droit, par les ailes longues 35 des cornières 31 et 32, qui assemblent le panneau arrière 25 respectivement avec les panneaux 27 gauche et droit.When a drawer 15 is introduced into a rack 2, 3 or 4 along the horizontal grooves 19, the free ends of the flexible strips 42 are folded against the support panels 18 left and right, by the long wings 35 of the angles 31 and 32, which assemble the rear panel 25 respectively with the left and right panels 27.

Lorsque le tiroir 15 est en position fermée, les extrémités libres des lamelles flexibles 42, ne subissant de nouveau plus de sollicitations, ont repris leur position initiale.When the drawer 15 is in the closed position, the free ends of the flexible strips 42, no longer undergoing stresses again, have returned to their initial position.

Lorsque le tiroir 15 est ouvert au maximum, les extrémités libres des lamelles flexibles 42 vien­nent buter contre les parties des onglets 28 du panneau 25 arrière qui sont situées sous la rainure horizontale 26 du dit panneau 25 arrière et maintenues par les ailes longues 35 des cornières 31 et 32.When the drawer 15 is fully opened, the free ends of the flexible strips 42 abut against the parts of the tabs 28 of the rear panel 25 which are located under the horizontal groove 26 of said rear panel 25 and held by the long wings 35 of the angles 31 and 32.

Cette disposition empêche le tiroir 15 de tomber hors du casier 2, 3 ou 4.This arrangement prevents the drawer 15 from falling out of the locker 2, 3 or 4.

Si l'utilisateur souhaite le retrait total du tiroir 15 hors du casier 2, 3 ou 4, il lui suffit de rabattre les extrémités libres des lamelles flexibles 42 contre les panneaux de support 18, à l'aide d'une lame de couteau, par exemple, et de les maintenir dans cette position.If the user wishes the drawer 15 to be completely withdrawn from the rack 2, 3 or 4, it suffices to fold the free ends of the flexible strips 42 against the support panels 18, using a knife blade, for example, and keep them in this position.

Selon une variante d'exécution, les lamelles flexibles 42 sont disposées sur un seul des deux pan­neaux de support 18 présents dans un casier 2, 3 ou 4.According to an alternative embodiment, the flexible strips 42 are arranged on only one of the two support panels 18 present in a rack 2, 3 or 4.

Selon une forme d'exécution de l'invention non illustrée sur les Fig. 1 à 6, les panneaux de support 18 peuvent avoir une hauteur inférieure à la hauteur des côtés 10 d'un casier 2, 3 ou 4. Dans ce cas, l'espace interne du casier 2, 3 ou 4 n'est pas entié­rement rempli de tiroirs 15, mais un panneau 43 formant tablette (non représenté sur les figures) est posé sur les bords supérieurs des panneaux de support 18.According to an embodiment of the invention not illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 6, the support panels 18 may have a height less than the height of the sides 10 of a rack 2, 3 or 4. In this case, the internal space of the rack 2, 3 or 4 is not entirely filled with drawers 15, but a panel 43 forming a shelf (not shown in the figures) is placed on the upper edges of the support panels 18.

La Fig. 7 montre un casier 44 entièrement rempli de tiroirs 15. Ces tiroirs 15 sont répartis en deux séries juxtaposées comportant chacune trois tiroirs 15 superposés. Les deux séries de tiroirs 15 sont séparées par un panneau de support central 45. Sur chaque face de ce panneau de support central 45 sont ménagées trois rainures horizontales 46.Fig. 7 shows a rack 44 completely filled with drawers 15. These drawers 15 are divided into two juxtaposed series each comprising three superimposed drawers 15. The two series of drawers 15 are separated by a central support panel 45. On each face of this central support panel 45 are formed three horizontal grooves 46.

Deux panneaux de support 18 sont placés dans le casier 44, d'une manière identique à celle illustrée aux Fig. 1 et 4 à 6.Two support panels 18 are placed in the rack 44, in a manner identical to that illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 4 to 6.

Chaque tiroir 15 s'engage, par ses languettes 39 (non représentées), d'une part dans une rainure horizontale 19 d'un des panneaux de support 18 latéraux et d'autre part dans une rainure horizontale 46 du panneau de support central 45.Each drawer 15 engages, by its tongues 39 (not shown), on the one hand in a horizontal groove 19 of one of the lateral support panels 18 and on the other hand in a horizontal groove 46 of the central support panel 45 .

Les tiroirs 15 montés de part et d'autre du panneau de support central 45 maintiennent celui-ci en place. Pour éviter que ce panneau de support central 45 ne coulisse vers l'avant lors du retrait des tiroirs 15, une petite butée (non représentée) peut être fixée sur la traverse inférieure 6, devant le dit panneau de support central 45.The drawers 15 mounted on either side of the central support panel 45 hold the latter in place. To prevent this central support panel 45 from sliding forward when the drawers 15 are withdrawn, a small stop (not shown) can be fixed on the lower cross member 6, in front of said central support panel 45.

Suivant une forme d'exécution de l'invention, non représentée, le panneau de support central 45 peut être remplacé par deux panneaux de support 18 placés dos à dos et rendus solidaires par un adhésif (par exemple, du ruban adhésif double face). Cette manière de procéder permet de réduire le nombre de pièces dfférentes à fabriquer.According to an embodiment of the invention, not shown, the central support panel 45 can be replaced by two support panels 18 placed back to back and made integral with an adhesive (for example, double-sided adhesive tape). This procedure makes it possible to reduce the number of different parts to be manufactured.
