BRACKET FOR SECURING A STRUCTURAL MEMBER

摘要

A bracket for securing a structural member, which can be used in the assembly of modular furniture. The bracket includes a main bracket body and a first cantilever having a first length extending longitudinally from the main bracket body and a second cantilever having a second length that is shorter that the first length of the first cantilever, extending longitudinally from the main bracket body and substantially parallel to the first cantilever. The first cantilever is separated from the second cantilever to form a first channel for receiving a first structural member. In an alternative embodiment, a stabilizing member that is detached from the main bracket body may be substituted for the second cantilever to form the bracket.

1. A bracket for securing a structural member, the bracket comprising:
a bracket body; a first cantilever having a first length extending longitudinally from the bracket body, the first cantilever comprising a flange at a distal end of the first cantilever, the first cantilever further comprising a concave portion extending at least partially between the flange and the bracket body and a fastener receiving void positioned within the concave portion of the first cantilever; and a second cantilever having a second length that is shorter that the first length of the first cantilever, extending longitudinally from the bracket body and substantially parallel to the first cantilever, the second cantilever having a flange at a distal end, the flange of the second cantilever facing inward toward the first cantilever and aligned within the concave portion of the first cantilever and a fastener receiving aperture within the flange of the second cantilever, the fastener receiving aperture substantially aligned with the fastener receiving void of the first cantilever, the first cantilever separated from the second cantilever to form a first channel for receiving a first structural member.
