A front panel dismounting and locking mechanism for a drawer is disclosed. A side panel 14 of the drawer comprises a cavity for housing a mechanism for retaining a front panel 15 and for enabling rapid removal thereof. The locking mechanism comprises a main plate 1, a spring biased swinging rod 8 articulated with the main plate and a sliding block 9; wherein actuation of the swinging rod causes the sliding block to move between a locked state where it contacts a retaining element 7 of the front panel and an unlocked state where the retaining element is released. The main plate is provided with a guide slot 1.1, in which the retaining element can slide. The main plate is provided with a torsion spring 6 that urges against the swing rod. A tool 16 may be used to rotate the swing rod against the spring bias, causing the sliding block to move away from the guide slot, thus unlocking the retaining member. The locking mechanism may also be provided with vertical and lateral adjustment means (10, 13, figure 2) for adjusting the position of the front panel. |
