ABSTRACT:
A partition and paneling system comprises connecting means for joining of abutting wall panels together to form an integral wall. The connecting means includes a head section supporting the ceiling and connected to the conventional overhead steel work or black iron. Downwardly extending top guide channels are mounted to the head section and the upper portion of a fastening member is located within the top guide channels and extends downwardly therefrom. The fastening member comprises an enlarged upper portion, an elongated intermediate portion having tapered wedged-shaped blocks at intermediate portions therealong and a lower enlarged portion having a threaded axial aperture which is engaged by a threaded rod. The rod is locked in the lower enlarged portion at one end and has an outwardly extending block at the lower end thereof and an elongated lock nut mounted thereto. The transverse block portion cooperates with stop blocks in a base mounting channel to tighten the wedge-shaped portions into mating elements mounted on the edges of a abutting wall panels. Thus, the abutting partitions or panels are drawn into contact with one another by merely tightening on the elongated lock nut of the fastening member. The partitions may similarly be readily released by unlocking the nut thereby loosening the fastening member so that the panels can be reused.
