ABSTRACT:
A connector device (20,60) for securing an additional rigid member (13,13'), such as a rod or tube, to a rigid member (12,12') of an existing assembly of rigid members comprises a body (21) having a first region (22) for securing relative to an end of a first rigid member (13,13') and a second region (23) adapted to cooperate with another add-on type connector device (20,60) to embrace a part of a second rigid member (12,12') and form a structural interconnection between the rigid members, the first region (22) of the body (20) having a major axis (28) which is substantially aligned relative to the length direction of at least an end portion of the first rigid member and the second region (23) having an end zone which at least in part lies substantially obliquely relative to the major axis and provides a recess (24) which locates part of the second rigid member (12,12').
