  • Patent number: 7004553
    Abstract: In a cabinet having vertically extending side members (5) forming part of a chassis of the cabinet, panel mounts (1), also to extend vertically in the cabinet and to have panels mounted thereupon, are mountable to the side members (5) by integral members (3) which extend parallel to the outer face of the panel mount (1) at a spacing from the outer face and in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the panel mount (1), i.e., horizontally. The integral members (3) are engaged in respective apertures in the side members (5) or in braces (7) extending between the side members (5) followed by forward or rearward movement to effect securement, retaining means such as pins or studs then being inserted in aligned bores (8, 9) in the panel mounts (1) and side members (5) to prevent return movement.

  • Patent number: 6810562
    Abstract: A spacing member (15) on a hinge arm (1) bears against guide surfaces (22, 231)and locates a hinge pin (16) generally beneath a hinge pin hole in a recess (2) to be mounted on a door to be hingedly mounted on a cabinet which has a frame mounting the hinge arm. Lowering of the recess when so generally located cause a chamfer (161) on the end of the hinge pin (16) to accurately align the hinge pin with the hinge pin hole as the hinge pin (16) enters the hinge pin hole to move the spacing member (15) out of engagement with the guide surfaces (22, 231).
