<p>A fixing device (1) comprises a body (2) having a rear surface (4) from which extends a double key hole shaped boss (5). A pair of pins (7,8) project from the boss and receive therebetween a locking member (9) which is secured to the body member by a screw (10). In a first limit position (Figure 1) the locking member abuts the pins so that the fixing device may be offered up to a pair of panels having aligned double key hole shaped openings to pass the locking member (9) through the openings and leave the boss (5) positioned within the openings. The screw is then rotated from the side of the panel from which the fixing device was inserted to move the locking member (9) to a second limit position illustrated in Figure 3 defined when the leading faces of the locking member arms (12) abut the corners (13) of the pins (7,8). Continued rotation of the screw draws the locking member (9) towards the body member (2) to clamp the panels therebetween. The fixing device requires access only to one surface of the panels being clamped, and requires only appropriately shaped openings in the panels.</p> |
