DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0022] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 9A, a multifunctional chest comprises a front plate 6, a pair of lateral plates 1, a rear plate 3, an upper drawer 5, a lower drawer 7, and a cover plate 4.

[0023] A plurality of connection rods 2 are disposed between the lateral plates 1.

[0024] The rear plate 3 is disposed between the lateral plates 1.

[0025] The cover plate 4 is disposed between the lateral plates 1.

[0026] The lower drawer 7 is disposed between the lateral plates 1.

[0027] The front plate 6 is disposed between the lateral plates 1 and above the lower drawer 7.

[0028] Each of the lateral plates 1 has a longitudinal guide groove 13 to receive the rear plate 3, an upper rail 10 to receive the cover plate 4, a lower rail 12, and a plurality of sockets 15 to receive the connection rods 2.

[0029] The cover plate 4 has a pair of racks 40 to receive the upper drawer 5 and a plurality of inner recesses 41.

[0030] The lower drawer 7 has a pair of rollers 70. Each of the rollers 70 is inserted in the corresponding lower rail 12.

[0031] The lower drawer 7 has a plurality of through holes 71 in order to reduce a weight of the lower drawer 7.
