Abstract
A mitered joint assembly having first and second furniture components joined by a bracket is disclosed. The components define interior surfaces. The interior surfaces have longitudinally extending pilot grooves. The pilot grooves engage one another. A bracket having legs is mounted adjacent the interior surfaces of the furniture components. The legs of the bracket each include at least one opening for receiving fasteners which extend through the openings. The fasteners are received in the grooves which act as pilot holes and as alignment means. The bracket has an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface includes tongue means consisting of projections which are received in the pilot grooves for aligning the components.
