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 cabinet includes a frame, having a top pan and a bottom pan, and a pair of sides coupled to the top pan and the bottom pan to form the frame. A shelf is adjustably mounted in the frame in one of a substantially level or a slanted orientation. The shelf has a plurality of shelf openings therethrough on a shelf face, the shelf openings configured to provide multiple lateral subsection configurations. A plurality of divider rods sized to be accommodated in the pan openings and shelf openings, the divider rods configured to divide the frame into the multiple lateral subsections.

A joining device for parts of furniture and furnishing accessories includes a casing or container body suitable for being inserted in a seat formed in one of the components of the item of furniture to be joined and provided with an expansion bushing externally projecting with respect to a first end or front end of said casing or container body and suitable for engaging with a further seat of a further component of the item of furniture to be joined to the component wherein the casing or container body is inserted. Said joining device includes a cam mechanism for a linear motion of actuation means co-operating in an expansion and retraction deformation movement of the expansion bushing and simultaneous expansion of at least one portion of said casing or container body, with said cam mechanism and actuation means housed in the casing or container body and actuated by a tool.

Embodiments relate to a niche system having a frame used as a structure upon which a façade (e.g., stone, marble, etc.) is secured. The frame includes uprights, a back panel, and a plurality of shelves. The shelves are attached to the uprights and back panel to form a plurality of niche spaces. The edges of the shelves are angled to provide structural support and rigidity, allowing the niche system to be self-supporting.

A modular display can be assembled and disassembled by one person without any tools. The structural parts of the assembly include several types of interlocking pieces which form stable columns, and various bridging devices, including a bridge shelf removably secured by bridge brackets, that allow for slatwall or pegboard to be easily inserted to display a wide range of products that merchandise on slatwall, pegboard, shelves, tables and free-standing pedestals as well as garment poles. This display booth emulates a retail shopping experience where physical products are sold on varying display mediums. The parts fit to together by inserting hooked tabs into slots that fit the width of the tabs. Since all the parts are interchangeable, the system allows for multiple configurations, as well as easy expansion of the display booth by adding more parts.

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.

Disclosed is a protective cabinet in the form of a moveable furniture unit that has structure to enable moving the furniture unit into a locked position in which it blocks a point of ingress of a would-be assailant, such as a door or window into a space. In certain configurations, the furniture unit includes protective, hardened material, such as a ballistic material that provides increased protection against fire from a weapon, such as may be encountered in an active shooter event. For example, the cabinet may be used on a daily basis inside of a classroom, and may be moved and locked into a position in front of a doorway, window, or other ingress or egress point of the classroom during an active shooter or other threat event to both block the ingress/egress point and provide ballistic protection against weapons fire from outside of the room. The back side of the cabinet (which faces the outside of the room that is being protected) may incorporate a psychological deterrent, such as a reflective surface or a calming message, which provides an added level of deterrence against an attack inside of the room.

The invention herein disclosed is a sanitization station kit that comprises sheets of sheet metal components, pre-assembly, that supports minimal shipping volume; and upon delivery at a use site, the panels may be prepared and assembled using only a screw driver.

An joint is provided for modular furniture. The joint includes a locking tab which is held in a slot such that the tab cannot be moved out of a locking section of the slot without elastically bending the tabbed panel to prevent inadvertent disassembly of the item of furniture. The tab and slot configuration may also provide increased stiffness and rigidity to the piece of furniture while allowing the piece of furniture to be assembled without fasteners such as screws or nails.
