Zusammenfassung:An instrument cabinet is disclosed which has four main channels at its four corners which define vertical columns at the two front edges and two rear edges of the cabinet. Each of the main channels has a generally triangular gusset at each of its ends. Struts are provided for joining the side pairs of main channels, the struts having an L-shaped cross section with undercut T-slots which are utilized for securing the struts to the gussets of the main channels. Cross ties are provided in the front and the rear to define a bezel at each of the front and rear of the cabinet, each of the cross ties also having at least one T-slot for engaging the main channel. In addition, certain of the struts and cross ties are provided with slots and a fulcrum to impart a rattle-free construction to the panels. The interior elements as well as the main channel, strut, and cross ties are all secured within the cabinet by means of slideable fasteners which fit within the T-slots which permits virtually infinite length and width variations of the cabinet as well as interior members.
