Abstract
A furniture support system generally includes a first frame member, a second frame member, at least one pin inserted into the first frame member, and at least one fastener inserted into the second frame member. The fastener is engageable with the pin via an eyelet in the pin so as to secure first and second frame members together at a substantially right angle. The pin is inserted into the first frame member through a bore, and the fastener is inserted into the second frame member through a channel. One end of the fastener is located within a recessed portion of the second frame member, while the other end is inserted into the first frame member through a cross-bore that intersects the bore at a substantially right angle. The eyelets on the pin are substantially aligned with the cross-bores such that the end of the fastener inserted into the first frame member can engage the eyelet. A perimeter of the recess is surrounded by a reinforcing ring, and a reinforcing plate is also provided. Corresponding dowel holes may be provided on the first and second frame members to facilitate proper alignment of the members prior to securing them together. The system is adaptable to multiple sizes or types of furniture.
