Abstract

A cabinet door frame corner comprising a horizontally extending frame member having two opposed and spaced-apart side walls joined by a horizontal end wall defining an insertion channel therebetween, at least one of the side walls includes at least one of a male member and a female member; a vertically extending frame member having two opposed and spaced-apart side walls joined by a vertical end wall defining an insertion channel therebetween, at least one of the side walls includes at least one of a male member and a female member; at least one of the horizontally extending frame member and the vertically extending frame member having a section on at least one of the side walls extending inwardly in the insertion channel; a longitudinal single-piece connector having two portions, each portion being insertable in one of the insertion channels of the horizontally and vertically extending frame members, the connector including the other ones of the male members and the female members, the male and female members of the connector engaging into corresponding ones of the male and female members of the vertically extending frame member and the horizontally extending frame member, when the connector is inserted in the insertion channels, for connecting the horizontally extending frame member and the vertically extending frame member together through the longitudinal single-piece connector; the connector having an outwardly extending protuberance abutting the section extending inwardly in the insertion channel when the connector is inserted in the insertion channel.

1 . A cabinet door frame corner comprising:
 a horizontally extending frame member having two opposed and spaced-apart side walls joined by a horizontal end wall defining an insertion channel therebetween, at least one of said side walls includes at least one of a male member and a female member;   a vertically extending frame member having two opposed and spaced-apart side walls joined by a vertical end wall defining an insertion channel therebetween, at least one of said side walls includes at least one of a male member and a female member;   at least one of said horizontally extending frame member and said vertically extending frame member having a section on at least one of said side walls extending inwardly in the insertion channel;   a longitudinal single-piece connector having two portions, each portion being insertable in one of the insertion channels of the horizontally and vertically extending frame members, said connector including the other ones of the male members and the female members, the male and female members of said connector engaging into corresponding ones of the male and female members of the vertically extending frame member and the horizontally extending frame member, when the connector is inserted in the insertion channels, for connecting the horizontally extending frame member and the vertically extending frame member together through the longitudinal single-piece connector;   said connector having an outwardly extending protuberance abutting the section extending inwardly in the insertion channel when the connector is inserted in the insertion channel.   
   
   
       2 . The cabinet door frame corner of  claim 1 , wherein
 said section is provided on at least one side wall of said vertically extending frame member; and   said outwardly extending protuberance is provided on said portion insertable in said insertion channel of said vertically extending frame member.   
   
   
       3 . The cabinet door frame corner of  claim 1 , further comprising a locking plug adapted to secure engagement of the corresponding male and female members of the connector and vertically extending frame member when said connector is inserted in the insertion channel of the vertically extending frame member. 
   
   
       4 . The cabinet door frame corner of  claim 1 , wherein said protuberance of the connector is a ramp with a non-sloping side adapted to abut said section extending inwardly. 
   
   
       5 . The cabinet door frame corner of  claim 1 , wherein said at least one of a male member and a female member of said horizontally extending frame member is two female elements and said portion of said connector insertable in said channel of said horizontally extending frame member has two corresponding male elements.
