ABSTRACT:
An assembly rack comprises a plurality of upright posts and lateral joining rods coupled together by a plurality of structural connectors. The posts and rods comprise L-shaped members which define longitudinal guide edges. Each connector comprises arms which fit respectively into the post and at least one of the lateral rods. The arms contain slots which receive the guide edges of the post and rod(s). Each arm carries a friction block which is actuated by a threaded bolt so as to be displaced away from the arm and into frictional contact with an inner surface of the respective post and rod(s). Thus, the arms become frictionally locked between the inner surface and guide edges of the respective post and rod(s).
