Description
- 1. The Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to modular cabinet. More specifically, the present invention relates to a break down cabinet with a frame that can interchangeably receive doors, drawers, and shelves.
- 2. Related Technology
- Storage cabinets are well known articles used in garages, homes, offices and the like for various organizational and storage purposes. Storage cabinets are manufactured in various sizes, sturdiness, and quality, depending on the desired use for the cabinet. Generally, the larger and sturdier the cabinet, the more it will cost to manufacture.
- Assembly and shipping costs are generally a significant expense associated with manufacturing storage cabinets. Because typical cabinets are big and bulky, they are difficult and expensive to ship. They also require a large amount of packaging and take up valuable space during shipping. In addition to taking up shipping space, the bulky nature of storage cabinets often requires wholesalers or retailers to use significant amounts of valuable floor space or storage space to store or display the storage cabinets.
- One technique used to reduce the manufacturing costs of large bulky items is to ship the item disassembled and provide the purchaser with assembly instructions. However, large sturdy cabinets tend to not be of the knockdown type because they require more structural support than existing knockdown techniques can provide. For instance, storage cabinets used in garages to store heavy tools generally have metal frames that are spot welded or bolted before shipping. These cabinets are typically not sold in disassembled form because it is not practical for most purchasers to assemble the cabinet where welding or other sophisticated connecting means are necessary to provide proper structural support.
- It is also known in the field of cabinets to make and sell sets of differently shaped cabinets in a storage cabinet system. These cabinet systems generally have several cabinet pieces that accommodate different needs. For instance, one cabinet may be tall and narrow to accommodate tall items and another cabinet may have a drawer system for accommodating numerous items such as a tool set.
- Existing storage cabinet systems are expensive to manufacture because many of the pieces that make up the different cabinets are unique to each cabinet. Because of this uniqueness, manufacturing costs for one unique piece cannot be shared with the manufacturing costs of another.
- In addition, the cabinet user is limited in his or her ability to modify existing cabinets. If a person's cabinet needs change, he or she must purchase an entire cabinet to meet that need. Generally, a user cannot modify an existing cabinet to form a cabinet having a significantly different shape or feature.
- Therefore, what is needed is a modular storage cabinet system that includes cabinets that are lightweight and provide adequate structural support for relatively heavy objects. Each piece of the cabinet system also needs to knockdown and be easily assembled by a user. Furthermore, the cabinet system needs to be efficiently manufactured.
- The present invention relates to a modular storage cabinet system that overcomes the problems associated with existing knockdown storage cabinet systems. In one version of the invention, a plurality of posts are mounted between a top member and a bottom member to form a frame. Each post has a panel groove formed longitudinally therein. A plurality of panels attach to the frame to form an exterior. The panels slide in the grooves of two of the posts. In one embodiment, the frame is further configured to interchangeably receive a drawer assembly or a door.
- The cabinets of the present invention can be knocked down for shipping and then easily assembled by a user. In one embodiment, the posts are attached to the top and bottom member with screws. The side panels are easily attached to the frame by sliding the panels into the grooves in the posts. The sliding connection is a particularly easy assembly step that makes the cabinet simple and quick to assemble.
- The cabinets of the present invention are lightweight and sturdy. In one embodiment, the posts of the frame are made from extruded aluminum and the top and bottom members are made from blow-molded plastic. The frame provides adequate structural support such that the side panels can be made lightweight. The frame also provides a sturdy support for receiving drawers, doors, or shelves.
- The sturdy, lightweight construction of the present invention significantly reduces the shipping costs associated therewith. Because the cabinets are sturdy, the cabinets can be used to store heavy objects such as tools in a garage.
- Because the frame is configured to receive different assemblies, such as a drawer, a door, or a shelf, the general frame structure can be used for different cabinets in a modular cabinet system. For instance, in one embodiment, the frame receives a door and side panels to form a cabinet.
- The door is easily installed in the frame. The top and bottom members of the frame each have a receptacle (e.g., an aperture or a recess) formed therein that receive a hinge rod mounted in the door. The door pivots on the hinge rod so as to move between an open and a closed position.
- Alternatively, the cabinet is made into a drawer cabinet by attaching drawers to the frame. The drawers knock down and are easily assembled by a purchaser or user. In an exemplary embodiment, the frame's posts have a channel in addition to the panel grooves.
- In one embodiment, drawer brackets slide into the channel and are screwed into the posts at a selected position. Because the brackets are slid into the channels on the frame, the drawers will be aligned properly within the cabinet. In an exemplary embodiment, the assembly grooves provide a quick and easy method to securely and properly assemble a cabinet with a drawer assembly.
- Because different cabinets within the modular cabinet system are built on the same or a similar frame, fewer different pieces are produced, thereby reducing the manufacturing costs associated therewith. For instance, a tall cabinet and a short cabinet may share the same top and bottom members and other components such as casters and shelf brackets.
- The similar frame used in the various cabinets of the cabinet system also allows a user to more easily modify the cabinet system. For instance, if a user wants to convert a shelf cabinet into a drawer cabinet, the user can install drawers on the same frame as the shelf cabinet. Alternatively, to make the cabinet taller, the user can install longer posts and side panels.
- A novel and useful cabinet drawer design and assembly method are also discussed.
- These and other objects and features of the present invention will become more fully apparent from the following description and appended claims, or may be learned by the practice of the invention as set forth hereinafter.
- To further clarify the above and other advantages and features of the present invention, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to specific embodiments thereof which are illustrated in the appended drawings.
