Modular drawer structure

A modular drawer structure mainly includes a bottom board and front, rear boards and side boards coupled to the bottom board, where the boards each has an outer frame and a positioning frame configured on the inner edge of the outer frame, the outer frame is configured with buckling elements and engagement grooves, and a mesh sheet body constituted by interwoven net threads is configured on the positioning frame. Whereby, the front, rear boards and side boards are allowed to be positioned vertically on the peripheral of the bottom board by means of the mutual engagement of buckling element and engagement grooves of the outer frame of each board with each other in such a way to form a box-typed drawer. In addition, all the boards may be detached from each other and stacked together so as to facilitate handling and storage while not in use.

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a modular drawer structure, and more particularly to a box-shaped drawer constituted by buckling component boards to one another and capable of being detached and then stacked together so as to be convenient for handling, storage when not in use.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART

Drawers used in general cupboards or combined cupboards are generally constituted by a bottom board, front board, rear board and side boards, allowing the drawers to be formed as boxes so as to be slid into the cupboard for the accommodation of clothes or other various articles. Since conventional drawers are fixed, being inconvenient in handling upon purchase, and occupy too large storage space when not in use because they are larger. Although some pieces of modular furniture are provided with self-assembly drawers and can overcome the defects upon handling and storage, the assemblies thereof are rather troublesome such that the designs thereof cannot be counted as ideal ones.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The main object of the present invention is to provide a modular drawer structure, allowing a drawer to be assembled by means of mutual engagement, and further making the assembly more simple and convenient, and capable of detachment and stacking so as to facilitate handling and storage when not in use.

To achieve the object mentioned above, the present invention proposes a modular drawer structure, including a bottom board and front, rear boards and side boards coupled to the bottom board, where the boards each has an outer frame and a positioning frame configured on the inner edge of the outer frame, the outer frame is configured with buckling elements and engagement grooves, and a mesh sheet body constituted by interwoven net threads is configured on the positioning frame. Whereby, the front, rear boards and side boards are allowed to be positioned vertically on the peripheral of the bottom board by means of the mutual engagements of buckling elements and engagement grooves of the outer frame of each board with each other in such a way to form a box-typed drawer. In addition, all the boards may be detached from each other and stacked together so as to facilitate handling and storage when not in use.

Furthermore, the mesh sheet bodies are respectively configured with floating protrusions spaced at intervals in such a way to strengthen the respective mesh sheet body.

Furthermore, the end portions of the net threads of the mesh sheet bodies are wound around the respective positioning frames, allowing the end portions to be sandwiched between the respective outer frames and positioning frames so as to make the mesh sheet bodies more stable.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring toFIGS. 1 to 3, which respectively are a perspective view of the present invention, a perspective view of a board according to the present invention and an exploded view of the present invention, a drawer of the present invention includes a bottom board1and a front board2, rear board3and two side boards4coupled to bottom board1and each other, where the bottom board1is configured with an outer frame11and positioning frame12configured on the inner edge of the outer frame11, and the front, rear edges of the outer frame11are respectively configured with fixing holes13and the two sides thereof engagement grooves14. Furthermore, the positioning frame12is configured with a mesh sheet body15constituted by interwoven net threads151, which is configured with floating protrusions arranged at intervals in such a way to increase the strength of the mesh sheet body15.

The front board2is configured with an outer frame21and a positioning frame22configured on the inner edge of the outer frame21, the rear edge of the outer frame21is configured with buckling elements23, and the positioning frame22is configured with a mesh sheet body24constituted by interwoven net threads241, with the mesh sheet body24being configured with a semicircular opening243and floating protrusions242spaced at intervals in such a way to strengthen the mesh sheet body24. Furthermore, the bottom edge of the outer frame21is configured with screw holes (not shown in the figures) corresponding to the fixing holes13configured on the outer frame11of the bottom board1.

The rear board3is configured with an outer frame31and a positioning frame32configured on the inner edge of the outer frame31, the front edge of the outer frame31is configured with buckling elements33, and the positioning frame32is configured with a mesh sheet body34constituted by interwoven net threads341, with the mesh sheet body34being configured with floating protrusions342spaced at intervals in such a way to strengthen the mesh sheet body24. Furthermore, the bottom edge of the outer frame21is configured with screw holes (not shown in the figures) corresponding to the fixing holes13configured on the outer frame11of the bottom board1.

The two side boards4each is configured with an outer frame41and a positioning frame42configured on the inner edge of the outer frame41, the bottom edge of the outer frame41is configured with buckling elements43, and the front and rear edges thereof are respectively configured with an engagement groove44. Furthermore, the positioning frame42is configured with a mesh sheet body45constituted by interwoven net threads451, the mesh sheet body45is configured with float protrusions452spaced at intervals in such a way to strengthen the mesh sheet body45, and a wall portion46projected outward is configured on the top edge of the outer frame41.

The components mentioned above are combined together to form a modular drawer structure. Therefore, the mutual engagements of the buckling elements23,33,43and engagement grooves14,44configured on the outer frames11,21,31,41of the bottom board1, front board2, rear board3and two side boards4with each other upon assembly enable the front board2, rear board3and two side board4to be positioned vertically on the peripheral of the bottom board1and, screws5are then used to pass through the fixing holes13of the bottom board1to lock down the front board2and rear board3in such a way to constitute a box-typed drawer A. Thus, the drawer A so constituted may be slid into a cupboard through the wall portions46configured on the side boards4for the accommodation of clothes or other various articles, allowing the assembly of the drawer A to be more convenient and quick. When not in use, all the boards may be detached from each other and then stacked together in order to facilitate handling and storage.

Referring toFIG. 4, which is a cross-sectional view of mesh sheet body net threads according to the present invention after assembly, the end portions of the net threads151,241,341,451of the mesh sheet bodies15,24,34,45of the bottom board1, front board2, rear board3and two side boards4are respectively wound around the positioning frames12,22,32,42, allowing the end portions to be sandwiched between the outer frames11,21,31,41and positioning frames12,22,32,42so that the mesh sheet bodies13,24,34,45can be fixed more firmly.

Referring toFIGS. 5 and 6, which respectively are cross-sectional views of the present invention before and after assembly, and also referring toFIG. 2again, the buckling elements23,33,43of the front board2, rear board3and two side boards4respectively are an L-typed body with a vertical section and horizontal section. Upon assembly, the buckling elements23,33,43are respectively first inserted into the engagement grooves14,44and then slid to the ends thereof in such a way to respectively buckle the horizontal sections of the buckling elements23,33,43tightly to the outer frames11,41and further to fix the front board2, rear board3and two side boards4tightly to the bottom board1.

Referring toFIG. 7, which is a perspective view of the present invention in a use state, one single drawer A can be slid into a cupboard6through the wall portions46configured on the side boards4after being assembled for the accommodation of clothes or other various articles, or it can be pulled out from the cupboard6so as to take out clothes or other various articles (using a hand to hold the semicircular opening243opened on the mesh sheet body24so as to facilitate pushing it in or pulling it out). In addition, all the boards can be detached from each other and stacked together so as to facilitate handling and storage when not in use.
