DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(8) Part of a drawer 1 according to the invention, which is formed by a longitudinal section through the drawer, having a drawer front 2, a rear wall 3, and a drawer base 4 (all in a sectional view), is shown in FIG. 1, together with a complete frame body 5 which is coupled to parts 2, 3, and 4. For the sake of clarity in terms of the fundamental construction of the drawer 1, a support body on the frame body 5, which is configured as a support console 16, is not illustrated in FIG. 1, said support console 16 however being visible in FIGS. 3 to 6. The frame body 5 in FIG. 2 is illustrated from the front.

(9) The frame body 5 comprises an outer casing element 6 and a base part 7 which is largely received in the latter and which on the inside surrounds a cavity 14 which is open toward the bottom. The casing element 6 and the base part 7 are in each case an elongate profiled body and are in particular formed by bending machined flat sheet-metal elements. The casing element 6 covers the base part 7 in the region of an outer side 8 and of a horizontal connection portion 9 of the frame body 5 and on an inner side 10 up to a wiper blade 11 which is molded on the casing element 6 so as to be laterally and inwardly directed. Attachment installations 12 which serve for releasably securing a drawer guide system (not illustrated), such as a part-pullout or a full pullout, in the cavity 14 are provided on the base part 7, so as to project toward the cavity 14. A cabinet rail of the secured drawer guide system here reaches out of the cavity 14 and extends into the region below or beside the outer side 8, so as to establish a positionally fixed connection of the drawer guide system and thus of the drawer 1. To this end, the cabinet rail is fastened to an inner side of a side wall of a furniture cabinet (not shown), on which the drawer 1 is received so as to be movable by way of the drawer guide system in the extension direction P1 and in the retraction direction P2. A further longitudinal side of the drawer 1, which is opposite the frame body 5 and is constructed in an identical manner but is not visible, is correspondingly fastened to the inside of a further side wall of the furniture cabinet, so as to be guided in a movable manner therein.

(10) Moreover, the base part 7 on an angular bearing face 7a comprises fastenings brackets 13 for the drawer base 4 which is disposed on the bearing face 7a so as to bear on the lower side thereof.

(11) The casing element 6 in relation to the outer side 8 of the frame body 5 has a height of 46 millimeters, for example, whereas the height h of the base part 7 on the outer side 8 is one or two millimeters less.

(12) In principle, the frame body 5 as a complete cavity frame could be employed as a drawer wall in a drawer according to FIG. 1.

(13) In the present case according to FIG. 1 a comparatively large projection of the drawer front 2 in relation to the upper side or to the connection portion 9 of the frame body 5 results. The support console 16 is present in order for stable securing of the drawer front 2 to be nevertheless enabled with the aid of the frame body 5, in particular in order to counteract tilting of the drawer front 2 about a horizontal axis according to the tilting direction P3.

(14) At the front end side, a front coupling 17 having a receptacle part 17a for releasably hooking a front hook 18 adjoins the support console 16. The support console 16 and the front coupling 17 are preferably fixedly connected. The front hook 18 is fastened to an inner side 15 of the drawer front 2, such that a web 18a, which obliquely projects downward thereon, engages in a matching slot 20 of the receptacle part 17a. The drawer front 2 by way of the front hook 18 may thus be hooked to the wall construction element 19 which is formed by the frame body 5 and the support console 16 including the front coupling 17.

(15) In order for the in particular metallic support console 16 to be connected in the connection portion 9, the casing element 6 on the front end side thereof, on the upper side has a clearance 21, which when viewed from above is rectangular, and the base part 7 also has a rectangular clearance 22 of the same type.

(16) In this way, the support console 16 and the front coupling 17 having the receptacle part 17a may be accommodated so as to be offset to the rear in relation to a front end side of the frame body 5. The base part 7 and the casing element 6 are assembled such that a defined vertical spacing of one to two millimeters, for example, is present at least in the connection portion 9, between the base part 7 and the casing element 6, on account of which a gap 23 is present in the region of the clearances 21 and 22. The gap 23 may be implemented by space holders, for example, which are effective outside the region of the gap 23 between the base part 7 and the casing element 6. A tongue-like flat portion 24 of the support console 16 is inserted during assembly of the wall construction element 19 in a matching manner into the gap 23 which is open at the periphery of the clearances 21, 22, and the three material layers are welded together. The three sandwich-type material layers are formed by a lower material layer of the base part 7, by a central material layer of the flat portion 24, and by an upper material layer of the casing element 6.

(17) The flat portion 24 perpendicularly projects on a lower periphery of the support console 16, on mutually opposed and vertically extending flanges 16a, 16b and on an interdisposed rear side 16c. A length of the flat portion is approximately 10 millimeters or more.

(18) By way of the upper-side and lower-side welding to the flat portion 24 to the base part 7, on the one hand, and to the casing element 6, on the other hand, a triple-layered welded connection by way of which the wall construction element 19 is connected in an inherently stabilized manner in particular in the region of the coupling of the drawer front 2, and the support console 16 is fixedly secured to the frame body 5, respectively, is provided.
