Description

Rail the manufacture of frame shaped furniture parts pn oa The invention relates to a rail for the manufacture of frame shaped furniture particularly the sides of which on one side has a groove in which a plate such as a wall part of a piece of furniture or a drawer bottom can be in the manufacture of the fixing of the drawer bottom into the sides is cumbersome and time since this either has to be adhesively bonded into the groove of the drawer sides or has to be fixed with metal In the same all parts have hitherto been fixed in grooves of frames of small correspondingly formed from such According to the these cumbersome fixing operations can now be if for manufacturing the furniture parts or the a rail is used which in accordance with the invention has at least one element for establishing a clamping for fixing the plate in the The plate them simply has to be pushed into the in which it is clamped so that no separate operating step is necessary any The embodiment according to the invention requires the use of known plastic hollow profiled rails for the part of the since rails and clamping connection elements can be extruded in a single working In this respect it is also possible to use another plastic material for the ribs provided by way of than for the remaining hollow which has favourable characteristics in respect of elasticity and friction The invention is described more fully with to the accompanying drawings whereinJ 1 shows a perspective view of a drawe viewed from the sides of which are formed of a plastic and 2 shows a through the according to The limbs designated by 16 of the drawer frame illustrated in 1 are manufactured from a rail according to the which has a core 18 pressed fibrous material which is eveloped with plastics The bottom of the illustrated drawer is designated by The rail is constructed in accordance with the invention in such a manner that the bottom is automatically held when it is inserted into the drawer this the rail has in the region of one of its lower marginal in the drawing the lower an gement groove designated by 24 one of its flat which is in cross On assembly of the drawer bottom this is pushed with its margin into the engagement For this the drawer frame limb 16 is not yet In the embodiment according to for effectively supporting the bottom of the drawer a plastics rib 28 is formed on the lower groove margin hich preferably is formed when extruding the plastics envelope 20 around the core 18 of the This plastic b is preferably formed of a plastic which has an essentially greater elasticity in parison with the plastic 20 forming the rail The plastic rib is directed obliquely into the engagement groove 24 viewed in cross at its side coming into contact with the bottom of the drawer has projections which further favour the fixing of the bottom of the drawer in the engagement groove The plastic rib 28 which is bent back relativel strongly due to the marginal portion of the bottom inserted in the tends to press the drawer bottom against the oppositely lying or upper groove wall and thus provides the desired in the In this respect is favourable if not only the two longitudinal limbs but all four limbs of the frame comprise an eagagement groove for ving a marginal portion of the bottom of the It is obvious that the described embodiments may be modi ied in In each an effective holding of the bottom or of a wall part in engagement groove of the side walls of a frame is It does not matter whether the frame is of solid or of compressed material formed of a core of material enveloped with a plastic Also to those skilled in the further features and advantages thereof will be insufficientOCRQuality

Claims (1)

1. Claims: 1. Rail for the manufacture of frame shaped furniture parts, more particularly the frames of drawers, at least one side of which has a groove in which a plate-like member such as a furniture wall part or a drawer bottom can be inserted, characterised in that the rail consists of a hollow profile made of synthetic material forming the groove, and having one or more integral clamping ribs on at least one side thereof for holding tiie plate* 2* Bail as claimed in claim 1 characterized In that the clamping rib extends obliquely into the groove* 5. A rail as claimed in claim 1 characterized in that the synthetic material for the clamping rib has a greater resiliency than that of the synthetic material of the hollow profile* 4* A rail as claimed in claim 1 characterized in that the clamping rib has barb-shaped projections on the side irected to the plate* 5* Rail for the manufacture of frame shaped furniture parts substantially as described herein and as illustrated in the accompanying drawings* Attorney for Applicant
