ABSTRACT:
An inexpensive, modular, partition system is provided by panels which include a generally rectangular body and connector members on opposed sides of the body and integral therewith. Each connector member includes female and male elements joined together by a stop element which is generally perpendicular to the body. The panels may be connected to one another to form a wall by either an abutting type or overlapping type connection. In the abutting type connection, one connector member of one panel interlocks with a connector member of the other panel and the female and male elements come into mating engagement with each other, with the stop elements of each member abutting each other. In the overlapping type connection, the ends of adjacent panels overlap each other and the male elements of each connector member are secured to the body of an opposing panel. Not only may two panels be joined together, but three or four panels may be connected to form a common junction, for example, at the corners of a storage unit formed by the panels. The mating configuration of the connecting end portions advantageously permits joining of adjacent panels with varying degrees of overlap corresponding to the space in which the panels are to be mounted, thus eliminating the need to cut a panel to fit a limited space.
