Abstract

La présente invention concerne des éléments d'assemblage permettant d'assembler deux parties de meuble (3, 5) de section transversale carrée ou rectangulaire, lesdits éléments d'assemblage comprenant une partie d'ancrage (1, 4) pour chaque partie de meuble à assembler. Afin d'obtenir des éléments d'assemblage pour parties de meuble qui soient aisés à monter et fiables, et d'abaisser les coûts de production des meubles ainsi que ceux du transport et de l'emmagasinage de ceux-ci, lesdits éléments d'assemblage comprennent une première partie d'ancrage (1) qui a la forme d'un profilé rectangulaire (1) que l'on peut fixer sur le bord (2) d'une première partie de meuble (3), et une seconde partie d'ancrage (4) qui, une fois montée sur une deuxième partie de meuble (5), est conçue pour tenir ladite deuxième partie de meuble (5) par rapport à ladite première partie de meuble (3), de telle sorte que le côté (32, 35) faisant face à ladite première partie de meuble (3) s'étend sensiblement parallèlement et sur le même niveau que la surface terminale (6) dudit bord (2) de ladite première partie de meuble (3) sur laquelle est fixé le profilé d'angle (1) mais sans s'engager directement dans ladite surface terminale (6).
