Slidable locking system for disengageable panels

摘要

A system is disclosed for connecting a first panel to a second panel in a manner which aligns the first and second panels at the same vertical level with respect to each other. The first panel has a female connecting member provided along its vertical edge, and a channel disposed transverse to the vertical edge. The second panel has a male connecting member provided along its vertical edge, and a slot provided in the male connecting member. A sliding pin block is retained for sliding movement inside the channel of the first panel, the sliding pin block having a pin normally biased to extend through the female connecting member. The pin is fitted inside the slot of the male connecting member when the first and second panels are connected along their vertical edges to align the first and second panels at the same vertical level with respect to each other.
