Modular fireplace cabinets

Abstract

A modular assembly for fireplace insert cabinets comprises at least two modules. Each module has a generally planar top and a support bottom. At least one of the modules is adapted for supporting a fireplace insert, and the other module includes a cavity having an opening and containing an article support.

1 . A modular assembly for fireplace insert cabinets comprising at least two modules, each module having a generally planar top and a support bottom for stacking one module on top of the other module, at least one of the modules being adapted for supporting a fireplace insert, and the other module being provided a cavity having an opening and containing an article support.  
   
   
       2 . The modular assembly of  claim 1  wherein the at least two modules are adapted for installation in a corner of a room one on top of the other.  
   
   
       3 . The modular assembly of  claim 1  wherein the at least two modules are adapted for mounting on a flat wall of a room one on top of the other.  
   
   
       4 . The modular assembly of  claim 1  and further comprising a platform having a generally flat surface adapted to be supported selectively on either of the planar top or at the support bottom of each of the modules.  
   
   
       5 . The modular assemble of  claim 1  and further comprising at least two platforms of different heights wherein each platform includes a generally flat surface adapted to be supported selectively on either of the planar top or at the support bottom of each of the modules.  
   
   
       6 . The modular assembly of  claim 1  and wherein the article support comprises at least one shelf.  
   
   
       7 . The modular assembly of  claim 1  and wherein the article support comprises a wine rack.  
   
   
       8 . The modular assembly of  claim 1  and wherein the article support comprises a glass rack.  
   
   
       9 . The modular assembly of  claim 1  and further comprising at least one door rotatably positioned over the opening in the module.  
   
   
       10 . A modular assembly for fireplace insert cabinets comprising a first module having a generally planar top and a support bottom and being adapted for supporting a fireplace insert, and at least one platform for position on the generally planar top to provide a mantel.  
   
   
       11 . The modular assembly of  claim 10  and further comprising a second module and wherein the second module comprises a generally planar top and a support bottom and a cavity having an opening and containing an article support and wherein the second module is positionable on top of the platform such that the first module supports the second module or below the first module such that the second module supports the first module.  
   
   
       12 . The modular assembly of  claim 11  and further comprising a second platform positioned on top of the second module or between the first and second module.  
   
   
       13 . The modular assembly of  claim 12  and wherein the first and second modules are of different heights.  
   
   
       14 . The modular assembly of  claim 11  wherein the at least two modules are adapted for installation in a corner of a room one on top of the other.  
   
   
       15 . The modular assembly of  claim 11  wherein the at least two modules are adapted for mounting on a flat wall of a room one on top of the other.  
   
   
       16 . The modular assembly of  claim 11  and wherein the article support comprises at least one shelf.  
   
   
       17 . The modular assembly of  claim 11  and wherein the article support comprises a wine rack.  
   
   
       18 . The modular assembly of  claim 11  and wherein the article support comprises a glass rack.  
   
   
       19 . The modular assembly of  claim 11  and further comprising at least one door rotatably positioned over the opening in the module.
