A modular cabinet assembly has at least a first sub-cabinet and a second sub-cabinet. Each sub-cabinet includes a back board having at least two separate back board pieces that are pivotably connected to each other, a left side board pivotably connected to one of the at least two back board pieces, and a right side board pivotably connected to another of the at least two back board pieces. At least one shelf board having opposite ends is removably connected to the left side board and the right side board of either the first sub-cabinet or the second sub-cabinet. A first end board is connected to either an upper end of the first sub-cabinet or a lower end of the second sub-cabinet. A first connector removably connects the left side boards of the first and second sub-cabinets, and a second connector removably connects the right side boards of the first and second sub-cabinets.

A corner assembly for interconnecting first and second frame members. A first plate member includes an outer face having a mounting rail projecting therefrom which is receivable in a slot in the first frame member and a bolt-receiving bore therethrough extending along a first axis at an acute angle to the outer face. A second plate member includes an outer face generally perpendicular to the outer face of the first plate member and having a mounting rail projecting therefrom which is receivable in a slot in a second frame member. The second plate member including a bolt-receiving bore therethrough extending along a second axis at an acute angle to the outer face of the second plate member. A central portion interconnects the first and second plate members and has a mounting surface and a bore extending therethrough. The mounting surface including an alignment rail projecting therefrom. A corner has a first sidewall configured to abut a terminal end of the first frame member, a second sidewall configured to abut a terminal end of the second frame member, and a mounting wall having a slot therein adapted for receiving the alignment rail of the central portion.

A system of floor mounts and wall brackets for the attachment of a cabinet of any configuration (upper, lower or tall) to a building's wall and/or floor in a secure enough manner to resist the lateral and vertical forces of an earthquake, therein seismically qualifying the components of this cabinet mounting system. The components are adaptable to any style of cabinets provided they have a flat bottom face rather than a stepped bottom face. With this system, any cabinet maker can now present their cabinets as seismically qualified as long as their carcass utilizes these seismic mounts.

A connection node assembly for use in connecting an upper prefabricated building module to a lower module. Hollow vertical edge supports of the building modules have top and bottom connection parts. A connecting bolt can be passed through the top part of an upper vertical support in the upper building module and seated within the bottom part of that vertical support with the shank extending downward. The shank engages a threaded aperture in a connecting nut secured within the top part of a corresponding lower vertical support in the lower building module. Diaphragm plates sandwiched between the upper and lower vertical supports are used to tie horizontally placed modules together.

A frame corner member includes an elongated hollow extrusion having a central corner portion and two leg portions extending from the central portion. Each leg portion includes an inner side wall spaced from and parallel to an outer side wall, and merging with the central portion. An outer end wall joins the inner and outer side walls, which each include an inner surface facing the inner surface of the other side wall. An opening through the outer end wall defines a space between the inner and outer side walls adjacent one end of the extrusion for receiving one end of one of frame side members and end members. At least one of the inner surfaces in the space has discrete surface features adapted to grip and retain the one end of one of the side members and end members in the space when received through the opening.

A bracket assembly includes a bracket, such as a flat plate bracket, including a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, and a number of apertures through the bracket extending from the first surface to the second surface. The first surface engages at least one table top board. The bracket assembly also includes a number of studs protruding from the second surface of the bracket, the studs to selectively attach the bracket to a second bracket structure, such as a leg support system. The bracket assembly can be used in furniture assemblies to secure table tops, shelves, or other structures to a support structure.
