DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(31)
(32) A part of a guide device 5 is visible from
(33) In the present embodiment, the inner wall 2 is manufactured from sheet metal. The front side 9 of the double-walled drawer frame 1 is formed from the same sheet metal part as the inner wall 2. The guide groove 51 is arranged in the region of the front side 9 and likewise formed from the same sheet metal part. As all said components are formed from the same sheet metal part, a considerable cost reduction is achieved.
(34) Located at one end of the guide device 5 is a holding device 7 for holding an outer wall 3, which has not yet been affixed.
(35) A part of the mounting device 6 is visible from
(36) The guide device 5 and the mounting device 6 are arranged in the region of two opposing long sides of the inner wall 2 (and/or the outer wall 3).
(37) The remaining part of the guide device 5 and of the mounting device 6 are formed on the outer wall 3, as is visible in some of the following figures.
(38)
(39) In
(40) The spacer parts 4 can be glued on the inner wall 2. These are thus fixed for the following affixing of the outer wall 3. In the case of cuboid-shaped spacer parts 4, the bonding is effected on a side wall 43 of the cuboid.
(41) In
(42) In
(43) In
(44) The guide web 52 has a substantially semicircular bend 54 of a sheet metal part. Preferably, the radius of the at least one bend 53 of the at least one guide groove 51 is greater than the radius of the at least one bend 54 of the at least one guide web 52. The bend 54 of the guide web thus fits into the bend 53 of the guide groove 51. These are not yet arranged in each other in
(45) The outer shape of the guide web 52 substantially corresponds to the inner shape of the guide groove 51.
(46) The at least one guide web 52 is manufactured from the same sheet metal part as the outer wall 3, preferably from an end piece of the outer wall 3. Material and production costs are saved in this way.
(47) In
(48) In
(49) In
(50) By bringing the two walls 2, 3 closer together, the spacer parts 4 are elastically compressed. To this end the spacer parts 4 can be manufactured at least partly from an elastically compressible material. Due to the elasticity of the spacer parts 4, the outer wall 3 and the inner wall 2 are pressed apart from each other. Any play in the guide device 5 is thus compensated for in the assembled state by preloading in one direction. Rattling of the outer wall 3 on the rear attachment 13 is also avoided.
(51) In
(52) The guide web 52 is arranged in the guide groove 51 so that the at least one guide groove 51 encompasses the at least one guide web 52.
(53) The at least one bend 54 of the guide web 52 is arranged in the at least one bend 53 of the guide groove 51. Here the bends 53, 54 of the guide groove 51 and the guide web 52, respectively, can rest against each other.
(54) The mounting web 62 is arranged in the mounting groove 61 so that the at least one mounting groove 61 engages behind the at least one mounting web 62. The outer wall 3 is secured in this way against lifting off on the side of the mounting device 6.
(55) The two walls 2, 3 are joined to each other on the two opposing long sides in the course of the displacement movement in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction, as the guide device lies opposite the mounting device 6.
(56) In
(57) Here, the guide web 52 is displaced in the at least one guide groove 51 in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the walls 2, 3. More precisely, the at least one bend 54 of the guide web 52 is displaced in the at least one bend 53 of the guide groove 51.
(58) The mounting web 62 is displaced in the at least one mounting groove 61 in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the walls 2, 3.
(59) The double-walled drawer frame has at least one holding device 7 for holding the at least one guide groove 51 on the at least one guide web 52. In the course of the displacement in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the walls 2, 3, the at least one guide web 52 is pushed in the at least one guide groove 51 into at least one first holding device 71. The first holding device 71 is located in a first end region of the guide device 5. This is not visible in
(60)
(61) The second holding device 72 is arranged in a second end region of the at least one guide groove (51), wherein the second end region lies opposite the first end region.
(62) In contrast to the first holding device 71, the second holding device 72 is formed as a separate component, in particular as a retaining clip 73.
(63) The outer wall 3 is held on the long side of the guide device 5 by the affixing of the at least one holding device 7. Together with the mounting device 6 on the opposing side, the outer wall 3 is fixed against lifting off in this way.
(64) At least one holding device 7 can wedge the guide groove 51 and the guide web 52 into a gap formed on the respective holding device 7. The gap on a second holding device 72 formed as a retaining clip 73 can be formed by two limbs.
(65) In at least one holding device 7, a rail 74, which is joined, fixed in place, to the guide groove 51 or the guide web 52, can hold the guide web 52 or the guide groove 51 respectively to the guide groove 51 or the guide web 53 respectively.
(66) For example, due to the bend 53, 54 in the guide groove 51 and the guide web 52, the guide web 52 is held in the guide groove 51 by the holding device.
(67)
(68) It is clearly visible from
(69) The second holding device 72, which is formed as a retaining clip 73, is again visible from
(70) It should be noted here that the configuration in
(71)

(73)
(74) The first holding device 71 is thereby visible here, which is formed as a rail 74. A detailed view is shown in
(75)
(76) A play compensation device 8 to compensate for play between the mounting groove 61 and the mounting web 62 is thereby visible here on the mounting device 6. This is represented enlarged by detail C in
(77) Play between the mounting groove 61 and the mounting web 62 is compensated for by a widening on the mounting web 61. Here the play compensation device 8 is formed as a projection 81.
(78) The projection 81 is preferably formed flexible and/or has lateral flanks 82 in ramp form.
(79) The at least one mounting web 62 is wedged in the at least one mounting groove 61 by the play compensation device 8 and the play compensation device 8 can be compressed when the mounting web 62 is arranged in the mounting groove 61.

(84) The spacer parts 4 have four slots 41. The openings of the slots 41 are widened in a V-shape and/or are arranged substantially in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the walls 2, 3.
(85) In
(86)
(87)
(88) In a first step, at least one spacer part 4 is arranged on the inner wall 2 and/or the outer wall 3, wherein this step is not shown in
(89) In a second step, the two walls 2, 3 are arranged substantially parallel to each other (
(90) In a third step, the two walls 2, 3 are displaced relative to each other in a direction transverse to a longitudinal direction of the walls 2, 3 (
(91) In a fourth step, the two walls 2, 3 are displaced relative to each other in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the walls 2, 3 (

(93) A method for producing, by machine and/or by hand, a double-walled drawer frame 1 for a drawer 14 consisting of an inner wall 2 and an outer wall 3 can have the following method steps, in particular carried out chronologically in the order indicated:
(94) In a first method step 18, at least one spacer part 4 is arranged on the inner wall 2 and/or on the outer wall 3. The assembly state of the double-walled drawer frame 1 following the first method step 18 is shown, for example, in
(95) In a second method step 19, the two walls 2, 3 are arranged substantially parallel to each other. The assembly state of the double-walled drawer frame 1 following the second method step 19 is shown, for example, in
(96) In a third method step 20, the two walls 2, 3 are displaced relative to each other in a direction transverse to a longitudinal direction of the walls 2, 3. The assembly state of the double-walled drawer frame 1 following the third method step 20 is shown, for example, in
(97) In a fourth method step 21, the two walls 2, 3 are displaced relative to each other in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the walls 2, 3. The assembly state of the double-walled drawer frame 1 following the fourth method step 21 is shown, for example, in
(98) In a fifth method step 22, the two walls 2, 3 are joined in the course of the displacement movements. The joining can be effected via holding devices 7, see
