A coupling member includes: first, second, and third portions each having a flat plate-like shape; and a fillet portion. The first portion has a first side and a second side orthogonal to each other. The second portion is bent at the first side relative to the first portion, and extends to an inner surface of the first portion. The third portion is bent at the second side relative to the first portion, and extends to an inner surface of the first portion. A bend radius of an outer surface of the coupling member at the first side is equal to a bend radius of a surface of a first extending member facing the first side. A bend radius of an outer surface of the coupling member at the second side is equal to a bend radius of a surface of a second extending member facing the second side.

Structural Column and Modular Structure for Electrical Cabinets Comprising said Structural column, includes a structural column (1) which, from a single piece, accurately determines two corners or vertexes of a modular structure (19) for electric cabinets. The modular structure (19) has four vertically positioned structural columns (1) and at least eight horizontal beams (20) connected to each other by means of screws (21). This invention also introduces an innovative joint between the elements of the structural columns (1), which are joined together by means of welds (6) and with the aid of limiters (12), positioning flaps (11) and engagers (9). Thus, this invention guarantees a perfect square of the modular structure and the correct assembly of the electrical cabinet, with no need for highly specialized labor. The modular structure (19) presented here can be manufactured entirely from low-cost metal materials such as carbon steel, significantly reducing the manufacturing costs of electrical cabinets.

A connector for connecting discrete modular storage units defined by plural hollow elongate support members having longitudinal ends including apertures into which vertical connection members can be inserted to connect adjacent modules. The inserts may be of a predetermined length to connect two horizontally adjacent modules or a length twice the predetermined length to connect two horizontally adjacent modules. For vertically and horizontally connected modules, the inventive connector may be utilized to connect modular shelving units having both an in-line and perpendicular configuration. The connector ideally comprises two identical insert members joined to each other in a desired orientation, so that the modules can be connected in different configurations, whether in-line, staggered or perpendicularly. The inventive connector also vertically connects the horizontally configured shelving modules to a variety of vertically disposed and configured shelving module units in a desired configuration. The connectors can be used to provide for an end connection at a top or bottom of the configuration in a dual insert connector, enabling a tab member to engage onto and retain an adjacent hollow tubular member or, in a single insert embodiment, to provide for insertion of a caster for resting on a floor.

A cabinet assembly including a first frame having a first open channel, a second frame spaced from the first frame with the second frame having a second open channel, and a plurality of beams extending between the first and second frames and interlocking to each of the first and second frames. Each of the beams include a bottom side, a top side opposite the bottom side, and a pair of opposing recessed portions extending from the top and bottom sides. Each of the recessed portions has an upper surface and a lower surface with the upper surface being disposed below the top side. A portion of the bottom side and the entire recessed portion is disposed within the first open channel. The top side is disposed outside the first open channel to interlock the beam to the first and second frames.

Systems and methods are provided for customizable cabinetry framing. The systems presented describe components which can be assembled into customizable framing modules for cabinetry in outdoor kitchens, farming sheds, restaurants, warehouses, or more. The methods presented describe making each component by cutting sheet metal or other sheet material, and then by folding the cut sheet metal, and using some fasteners. Standardized components may be assembled on-site into customized modules. These materials and assembly eliminate the need for costly and time-consuming welding at point of manufacture or assembly, while providing advantages in strength of the assembled framing modules. Various components may be packed for shipping in relatively flat units. The present invention solves problems with the currently available means of manufacturing and assembling outdoor kitchens and other custom framing built on-site. Lower costs of materials, manufacture, shipping, and labor for assembly result in more cost-effective and/or stronger framing.

A cabinet includes four upright members having a triangular section and including two outer boards, an inner board, and two longitudinal groove formed at a joining portion of a first end of the inner board and an end of one outer board and at a joining portion of a second end of the inner board and an end of the other outer board respectively, the inner board including an upper first through hole and a lower second through hole; a plurality of board members each including four through holes at four corners respectively; a plurality of fastening devices at the through holes of the board members respectively, each fastening device including a hook assembly and a bolt and nut combination for securing the hook assembly, the upright member, and the board member together; and three board elements each disposed between the grooves of two adjacent upright members.

A corner bracket may include first and second retainers configured to receive respective ends of first and second frame members, such that the first and second frame members are substantially perpendicular with respect to one another. The first and second retainers may include structural and sealing portions, wherein the structural portion includes a first material and the sealing portion includes a second material, with the first material being relatively more rigid than the second material, and the second material being relatively more elastic than the first material. The corner bracket may also include first and second exterior surfaces at least partially including the second material and first and second door panel interfaces configured to provide a seal between the first and second exterior surfaces and interior surfaces of first and second door panels in a closed position. The corner bracket may be incorporated into a frame for a cabinet.

A modular frame comprising a connector (3), a first frame member (1, 2) and a second frame member (1, 2), wherein the first frame member (1, 2) comprises one or more engagement members (5, 7) profiled to key with a first slot (6) on the connector (3) and a second slot (8) on the second frame member (1, 2).

A connection device for a frame, the connection device comprising a body comprising: a first engagement member (1) and a second engagement member (2). Said body comprises a sealing flange (13) which is configured to extend in parallel alignment with a first flange (7) of a first beam (4) and with a second flange of a second beam when the first and second beams are connected to the connection device via the first and second engagement members (1, 2) respectively, and which sealing flange (13) comprises a first recess (14) configured for receiving the first flange (7) of the of first beam (4) when the first beam (4) is connected to the connection device via the first engagement member (1), and a second recess (15) configured for receiving the second flange of the second beam when the second beam is connected to the connection device via the second engagement member (2).
