  • Patent number: 4278308
    Abstract: One or more upper hung drawers in a single tier as in a file cabinet or desk pedestal each is provided with a floor that is split in two along its length from front to back and hinged along its side edges or along its width side-to-side and hinged along the front and back edges. A retainer when in place keeps this floor up and functional. When the retainer is removed, the floor sections rotate down along their respective hinge joints and hang into the next lower drawer flat against its side walls or front and back walls. This gangs the two drawers together effectively as one, deeper drawer. Two, three or more drawers may be ganged together in this manner. In one variation, the floor is split in two along its width from side to side and each part is sub-divided into hinged plates.
