ABSTRACT:
Sheets of plastic materials including glass are interconnected along a longitudinal outer dimension thereof by an elongated longitudinal female interconnecting member having an upstanding base with transverse legs extending on opposite sides thereof and a central longitudinal socket therein having an open top with a downwardly extending prong receptacle which extends longitudinally the entire length of the socket. The female interconnecting member is adapted to mate with a male interconnecting member having an upstanding longitudinal housing with transverse support members extending from opposite sides thereof and having a downwardly extending bayonet prong centrally located in and integral with the housing extending longitudinally the length of the housing. The sheets to be interconnected are fastened between the male and female interconnecting members with the bayonet prong of the male member inserted in the prong receptacle of the female member thereby bringing the transverse legs of the female member and the transverse support members of the male member into contact with the lower and upper surfaces respectively, of the sheets being interconnected which are in effect clamped therebetween. The transverse support members of the male interconnecting member as well as the transverse legs of the base of the female member have fingers protruding therefrom thereby sealing the interconnecting members to the sheets being interconnected. A variable socket arrangement is provided in the female interconnecting member to accommodate different depths of insertion of the bayonet prong of the male interconnecting member into the socket permitting the interconnection of different thickness sheets based on the depth of insertion of the male member into the female member. The construction of the probe as well as the socket provide an interlocking relationship which may be released permitting the interconnection and disconnection of large sheets of material along the entire length of a longitudinal end thereof.
