FRAME CORNER CONSTRUCTION

摘要

There is provided an improved corner construction for interconnecting construction or frame members of a wall system. The corner construction is particularly useful with, but not limited to, a door structure of the type wherein a frame supports a panel of glass or other suitable material. The frame is formed of vertical frame members each having face portions connected by a transverse web and defining confronting glazing pockets. Spaced upper and lower rail members interconnect the vertical members and are each provided with longitudinally extending screw splines. The ends of the upper and lower rail members are coped to define tenons so that the screw splines fit within the confronting glazing pockets. Fastener means extending through the transverse webs into the screw splines expand the tenons to provide a tight fit with the glazing pockets of the vertical members.
