  • Patent number: 4078847
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to an electronic equipment enclosure assembled from four basic components including (a) frame rail members, (b) corner connector clips, (c) panel support clips, and (d) panel sheets. The frame members each include a pair of right angled walls terminating at flanges which form adjacent pairs of parallel, longitudinally extending internal and external slots. The internal slots receive the clips of the invention, namely, unique, simply constructed connector clips at the mitered joints to fasten the frame members in an assembled mutually perpendicular relation, and panel corner connector clips to engage and support the wall panels and/or shelves of the enclosure. The novel corner connector clip is generally dish shaped and comprises three extending arm members disposed in planes in a mutual perpendicular relation.
