ABSTRACT:
A connector in the form of a support which can be mounted on or build onto one article which is to be connected to another article which can have an entirely identical connector adapted to be joined to the first, a connecting member on the support being swingable, and which has a tongue forming one end of the member and means defining a cavity at an opposite end, dimensioned to accommodate the tongue. An actuating mechanism is provided to pivot the connecting member between a first position in which the tongue is retracted into the support and a second position in which the tongue projects from the support generally perpendicular or transverse to the retracted position and can engage in the cavity of the connecting member of the other article when the latter is in its retracted position. The forces acting on the articles is taken up between the members by at least one locking member or guillotine inserted into engagement with a formation of the connecting member generally transverse to the latter and braced against two parts of the other article on opposite ends of the connecting member.
