Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable nuts to be engaged easily with a engaging groove of a frame of a previously assembled frame by forming a blocking part of either one or both two front and rear frames out of four frames blocking the open edge of an engaging groove of a frame using a separate member which can be inserted and extracted easily. CONSTITUTION:A pair of upper and lower frame materials 4, 4 are connected at four corners and a part which becomes a blocking part of an edge part of an engaging groove 2 which is formed at a frame 1 in forward and backward directions of two rear-part frames 5, 5 out of the frames 4 in vertical direction blocking an open edge of the mounting member engaging groove 2 of the frame 1 for each side beam is made of a separate member 6 which can be inserted and extracted freely. Thus, by extracting this separate member 6, it is possible to engage an mounted member 10 such as a nut to the engaging groove 2 by sliding from the open edge of the engaging groove 2. Therefore, since it is possible to add the mounted member such as a nut after assembly in this inverted frame, optional components such as a mounting plate 14, a grip 15, and a slide rail 16 can be attached to the rack easily.

たものである。(Prior Art) As shown in FIG. 5, this type of conventional frame is made by fixing metal frames (51), (53), and (54) with screws or the like. ) The nant is slidably fitted from the end into the engagement groove (52) formed in the frame, allowing optional parts such as panels and brackets to be attached within the frame. However, in the past, the open end of the engagement groove (52) of this frame (51) was closed by a vertical frame (53), so if you wanted to add a nut after assembling the frame, you had to remove the frame (53). Had to take it apart. Also, since the number of nuts varies depending on the number of Opcidin parts to be attached to the frame, it was not possible to incorporate the nuts during manufacturing, and the frame had to be shipped disassembled so that the user could assemble the required number of nuts. Therefore, the burden of assembly on the user was large. (Intelligence to be Solved by the Invention 1! fl) The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and allows the user to easily fit nuts into the engagement grooves of the pre-assembled frame. It was developed to provide a framework that made it possible to
