Abstract: A bed assembly which may be easily assembled and disassembled. The bed assembly includes corner posts, bed end structures and siderails. A positive restraining attachment cooperates with the siderails and the corner posts to prevent unintentional removal of the siderails, such as by the application of force beneath the siderails. Crossrails are supported by cleats connected to the siderails. The cleats define a horizontally extending surface upon which the crossrails contact and an angularly oriented surface portion. A bore is defined by the cleat and extends substantially perpendicular to the angularly oriented surface portion. A pin associated with the crossrails is positioned within the bore and cooperates with the angularly oriented surface portion to prevent unintentional dislocation of the crossrails.

Abstract: First and second major components are folded into a compact knock-down condition for storage and shipment and may be quickly and easily erected and assembled to form a rigid caselike article of furniture. The first major component includes a rectangular front panel with drawer openings and a pair of rectangular end panels hingedly connected to opposed side edges of the front panel so that the end panels may be positioned in an inwardly folded compact position when in kit form and may be unfolded to a position at right angles to the front panel in preparation for assembly. The second major component of the kit includes a rectangular rear panel and a rectangular top panel hingedly connected to the upper side edge of the rear panel so that the top panel may be positioned in an inwardly folded compact position against the rear panel when in kit form and may be unfolded to a position at right angles to the rear panel in preparation for assembly.
