ABSTRACT:
A corner connector for securing two picture frame channel members abutted in solid, right angle relation. Each of two legs of the corner connector is disposed at right angle to one another, and has grooves to engage the end of one frame channel member. Each leg supports one or more resiliently biased projections bearing against a frame channel member inserted therein. The projections are angled so as to be pushed aside by a channel member being inserted into the corner connector, but to bind against the channel member when the channel member is withdrawn. The projections are accessible through an orifice in the rear of the corner connector. The connector is generally triangular, a third side of the triangle being formed by a panel spanning the right angle defined between the two legs. The edge of the third side has a sawtooth configuration to enable adjustable mounting of the corner connector on a nail or the like, to thereby hang the picture frame assembly on a wall when two upper corners of the assembled picture frame are so suspended.
