  • Publication number: 20090256455
    Abstract: A rail assembly has at least two hangers, a base and a rail body. Each hanger is a straight slot and has a narrow side and a clamp side longitudinal forming on the hanger. The clamp side is wider than the narrow side. The base has a base body and at least two mounting troughs. The mounting troughs are securely mounted on the base body and each mounting trough corresponds to and is slidably mounted on one of the hangers. The rail body is mounted on the base body. It is only to hang the assembled rail body with the base onto the hangers for assembling the rail assembly without using any tool, so to assemble the rail assembly is easy and convenient.

  • Publication number: 20090123222
    Abstract: A detachable connector assembly has a bracket, an active dowel and a lever. The bracket has a clamping recess. The active dowel has a shaft and a shaft cover. The shaft has a head, a central segment and a mounting end. The central segment is formed coaxially on and is smaller than the head. The mounting end is formed coaxially on the central segment. The shaft cover is mounted around the central segment and the mounting end. The bracket and the active dowel are respectively mounted inside two perpendicular panels with the head of the active dowel inserted in the clamping recess. The lever is rotated to drive the bracket around, thereby pulling the head further into bracket, the shaft cover is pressed further into the panel around the mounting end, thereby holding the shaft in the panel and securing the panels and connecting assembly together.

  • Patent number: 7530651
    Abstract: A ready-to-assemble (RTA) modular desktop cabinet has a multiple dowels, multiple clasp connectors, two side panels, a rear panel, a main shelf, a pedestal assembly and a top panel. The rear panel has a top board and a bottom board. The side panels are mounted parallelly and detachably mounted to the rear panel, the main shelf, the pedestal assembly and the top panel independently using dowels or clasp connectors. Further, the bottom board is hinged to the top board, so that the footprint of the folded rear panel is reduced for transport and storage. Furthermore, the RTA modular cabinet can be assembled and disassembled easily without needing tools.

  • Patent number: 7390069
    Abstract: A ready-to-assemble (RTA) modular desk has multiple clasp connectors, two desk assemblies a door and at least one pedestal drawer. Each desk assembly has a pedestal, and a desktop having a bottom surface. The pedestal and a stand are constructed and mounted detachably on bottom surface of the desktop by using the clasp connectors. The desk assemblies are connected detachably to the each other using multiple latch assemblies. The door is mounted detachably on one of the pedestals. The pedestal drawers are mounted detachably in one of the pedestals. Therefore, the RTA modular desk can be assembled without using tools in a variety of orientations, allowing a person to customize the RTA modular desk to their needs and easily change or disassemble the RTA modular desk without using tools.

  • Publication number: 20080084149
    Abstract: A collapsible cabinet includes a body, two doors, a cover and a bottom member. The body includes two inner panels, two inner posts, two outer panels and two outer posts. All panels and posts of the body are hinged to each other. Each door is hinged detachably to one of the outer posts of the body. The cover is mounted detachably on the body. The bottom member is mounted detachably in the body. Because each door is hinged detachably to one of the outer posts of the body, the collapsible cabinet can be assembled and detached easily without using tools. Labor cost and assembling time of the collapsible cabinet can also be reduced. When the collapsible cabinet is detached, the collapsible cabinet can be transporting and storing easily and cost therefor can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20080084143
    Abstract: A detachable fastener assembly includes a pin member and a nut. The pin member includes a base and a rotating pin. The rotating pin is mounted rotatably in the base and has a shank, a lever and a clamping tab. The shank has a protruding end. The lever is mounted on the shank to rotate the rotating pin. The clamping tab is formed on the protruding end of the shank. The nut has a receiving space, two ends, an inner surface and a flange. The flange is formed on the inner surface of the nut in one of the ends of the nut and corresponds to the clamping tab of the rotating pin. After the clamping tab is inserted into the nut and extends through the flange of the nut, the rotating pin is rotated to prevent the clamping tab from escaping from the nut.
