Corner assembly

摘要

A corner piece is provided for interconnecting frame members. The corner piece includes a first plate member defining an inner face, an opposite outer face, a first side face, an opposite second side face, and an end face. The first plate member including a bolt-receiving bore therethrough. A second plate member defines an inner face contiguous with the inner face of the first plate member, an outer face, a first side face, an opposite second side face, and an end face. The second plate member includes a bolt-receiving bore extending between the inner face and the outer face thereof along a first axis generally parallel to the inner face of the first plate member.

1. A corner assembly, comprising:
first and second frame members, each frame member including:
a generally flat, elongated first surface having an elongated slot therein extending along an axis, the slot being defined by:first and second generally flat, converging sidewalls, the first and second converging sidewalls lying in corresponding planes which are at acute angles to the surface and having terminal ends;first and second diverging outer abutment wails which extend from the terminal ends of the first and second converging sidewalls and have terminal ends, the first and second diverging outer abutment walls being non-parallel to the first surface;first and second diverging inner abutment walls extending from the terminal ends of the first and second outer diverging sidewalls toward the surface, the first and second diverging inner abutment walls having terminal ends; anda generally concave terminal wall interconnecting the terminal ends of the first and second diverging inner abutment walls; and a corner piece for interconnecting the first and second frame members, the corner piece including:
a first plate member defining an inner face, an opposite outer face, a first side face, an opposite second side face, and an end face, the first plate member including a bolt-receiving bore therethrough extending along a first axis at an acute angle to the inner face; anda second plate member defining an inner face contiguous with the inner face of the first plate member, an outer face, a first side face, an opposite second side face, and an end face, the second plate member including a bolt-receiving bore extending between the inner face and the outer face thereof along a second axis at an acute angle to the inner face thereof and generally parallel to the inner face of the first plate member.
