Abstract:
1. An assembly box, comprising: a frame that is rectangular as seen from a top and whose four sides are formed from four plate materials which are rectangular as seen from a front, and which have bottom ends and side edges; a base that has a placement plane for the frame and guides for supporting the bottom ends of the plate materials constituting the frame on the placement plane, and plate material connecting parts positioned at corners of the frame, each of which has a detachable locking mechanism, wherein each of the plate material connecting parts includes a first connecting part along the side edge of one plate material; and a second connecting part along the side edge of the other plate material and capable of being locked into the first connecting part, the first connecting part having a forefront portion and a concave groove formed at a position with a predetermined distance from an end of the forefront portion, and the second connecting part including a space capable of embracing the forefront portion and an L-shaped pawl having an end bending portion fitted into the concave groove, the concave groove and L-shaped pawl being structured such that the L-shaped pawl can be withdrawn from the concave groove to disconnect two connected plate materials by inclining either one of the plate materials at a predetermined angle that is less than 90° with respect to the connecting part, and wherein, among said plate materials, at least one plate material has a projection extending from an outer side surface of its bottom end, and at least one another plate material has no projection on an outer surface of its bottom end, such that when the frame is placed on the base, the projection is inserted into a hole formed in one of said guides, and when the frame is disassembled, the plate material having no projection is pulled out first, allowing the plate material having the projection to be inclined inwardly to withdraw the projection from the hole, wherein the projection is an elongated, peg-like member that extends at least substantially through the hole, and the inclination of the plate material having the projection around a vertical axis inwardly after the plate material having no projection is pulled out causes the plate material having the projection to disconnect from both other plate materials and the guide by withdrawal of the projection from the hole and withdrawal of the end bending portion from the concave groove.
