Abstract:
1. A self-fastening wall cabinet comprising: a bottom panel for enclosing a bottom portion of said wall cabinet, said bottom panel having an upper surface, a lower surface, a left end, and a right end, said left end including a first means of attaching said bottom panel to a left side panel in a perpendicular relationship, said right end including a first means of attaching said bottom panel to a right side panel in a perpendicular relationship; a top panel for enclosing a top portion of said wall cabinet, said top panel having an upper surface, a lower surface, a left end, and a right end, said left end including a first means of attaching said top panel to a left side panel in a perpendicular relationship, said right end including a first means of attaching said top panel to a right side panel in a perpendicular relationship; a back panel for enclosing a back portion of said wall cabinet, said back panel including a left end and a right end; a left side panel for enclosing a left side portion of said wall cabinet, said left side panel including an inner surface and an outer surface, said inner surface including an integrally molded track extending from a front portion of said left side panel to a rear portion of said left side panel along an upper portion thereof, said inner surface including a second attachment means constructed and arranged to cooperate with said first attachment means for attaching said left side panel to said left end of said top panel and said bottom panel in a perpendicular relationship, and a third attachment means for attaching said left side panel to said left end of said back panel in a perpendicular relationship; a right side panel for enclosing a right side portion of said wall cabinet, said right side panel including an inner surface and an outer surface, said inner surface including an integrally molded track extending from a front portion of said right side panel to a rear portion of said right side panel along an upper portion thereof, said inner surface including said second attachment means for attaching said right side panel to said right end of said top panel and said bottom panel in a perpendicular relationship, and said third attachment means for attaching said right side panel to said right end of said back panel in a perpendicular relationship; a flipper door panel constructed and arranged for enclosing a front portion of said wall cabinet, said flipper door panel including an outer surface, an inner surface, a top edge, a bottom edge, a left edge, and a right edge, said left edge and said right edge each including a pivot means defining an axis of rotation therebetween and extending outwardly from an upper portion thereof, wherein said left edge pivot means is constructed and arranged to cooperate with said track of said left side panel and said right edge pivot means is constructed and arranged to cooperate with said track of said right side panel, wherein said left and said right side panel tracks and said pivot means cooperate to allow a lower portion of said flipper door panel to rotate about said axis to an essentially horizontal position when in a forward most position and thereafter slide inwardly in a generally parallel and adjacent manner to said lower surface of said top panel along said left and said right side panel tracks to an essentially juxtaposed position beneath said top panel thereby providing ingress into said wall cabinet; wherein said wall cabinet can be shipped in a disassembled state and assembled on a desired site without a need for separate fasteners.
