Metal panel for drawer walls

A metal panel for drawer walls, comprising a wall plate (14) having a single-thickness and stamped and shaped from sheet metal and a separately made drawer-bottom holding shaped structure (16;

• 16') formed of metal, said wall plate having a lower marginal area which said drawer bottom holding shaped structure is fastened to and which extends substantially over an entire length of this bottom margin, said wall plate having a longitudinal slot and the drawer-bottom holding shaped structure (16) is a section of metal, which has coupling portion (20) comprising a longitudinal slot (22) into which is fitted the bottom margin of the wall place (14), a strip-like bottom holding flange (24) projecting at right angles from the coupling portion (20), and a transition flange (26) projecting at a distance above the bottom-holding flange forming a cove of concavely rounded cross section in an area of transition from an inside surface of the wall plate (14) to a top side of the corresponding drawer bottom (12), wherein the bottom-holding flange (24) and the transition flange (26) are spaced apart a distance approximately equal to a thickness of a drawer bottom (12) which is to be mounted between these flanges;
• and wherein about centrally between the bottom-holding flange (34) and the transition flange (26) a strip-like anchoring flange (28) projects at right angles from the coupling portion (20), adapted to be hammered into a slot-shaped groove (30) made in an edge surface of the drawer bottom (12) to be accommodated between the flanges (24, 26).
