Abstract
Abstract A cabinet for mounting electronic equipment is disclosed. At least two joints corresponding to each one of the side walls of the cabinet are provided for respectively connecting the bottom end part and the top end part of the cabinet to the same. Each of the joints includes three threaded bores arranged to define the respective corners of a triangle. Three threaded members threadably engage corresponding ones of the bores to join the side wall and the corresponding one of the end parts together. The joint configured in this manner ensures that the cabinet can always be screwed together square and true to size with a minimum of effort.
