Abstract (en)

[origin: US4709640A] A piece of furniture is formed as a plurality of panels having ends joined together with at least some panels extending perpendicular to and parallel to other panels. Each panel is formed by at least one rectangularly parallepipedal coupling bar having a predetermined length and extending along as respective end of the respective panel. Each such bar has a plurality of like longitudinally extending faces and is formed with a respective longitudinally extending and equispaced succession of like mortises opening perpendicularly at each face. Each panel is also formed by a respective group of like flat slats extending coplanar and parallel to one another and having ends received snugly in the mortises of the respective coupling bar with the slats projecting perpendicularly from the respective bar face. Each end of each slat is cut back to form a tenon complementary to any of the mortises.
