Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an interlocking device for connecting two furniture panels, such as panels of a mattress base of a bed, to each other. Furthermore, the invention relates to furniture comprising such an interlocking device. Background technique [0002] A common problem in designing and manufacturing furniture involves connecting panels to each other at predetermined angles, for example at right angles. For example, in the art there are known configurations in which a pair of lateral side panels and a pair of end panels are connected to each other by interlocking corner post brackets. [0003] Furthermore, mattress bases for beds are known comprising two long side panels and two short side panels connected to each other by corner brackets which are screwed and held together by threaded rods and cooperating nuts, the threaded rods extending through the upper and lower brackets, respectively. The mating nut has a hole for connecting wi...
