  • Patent number: 4165588
    Abstract: A free standing furniture unit has a pair of spaced vertical posts, and connecting rods extend between upper and lower end portions of the posts. The connecting rods and the posts, when assembled, provide an open rectangular frame which receives a rectangular panel. The panel has an elongate notch along its lower edge thereof. The panel is positioned in the frame with the notch receiving the lower connecting rod, and then the panel is swung about the lower rod into its assembled position within the frame with the upper edge of the panel being positioned below the upper connecting rod. A locking member with an elongate notch along its lower edge fits over the upper connecting rod and extends between the two posts. The locking member and the upper edge of the panel have interlocking surfaces which secure the panel in its assembled position within the frame. In this manner the panel can be swung into position within the frame or removed therefrom without disassembly of the frame.
