ABSTRACT:
An improved locking fastener construction for use in interconnecting and assembling the components of articles which are normally stored and shipped in knock-down condition to be assembled at a final location. The construction is particularly suited for assembling articles having abutting surfaces which would normally be interconnected by screws or rivet. The construction includes a planar base member having an interconnecting surface, a plurality of headed projections extending from said surface, an attachable member having a main wall and a laterally extending flange having shaped openings corresponding in size and location to the headed projections, and a corresponding number of synthetic resinous clip elements of limited flexibility adapted to engage the headed projections to maintain them within the corresponding openings and the laterally extending flange in contact with the interconnecting surface.
