<p>A connector (5) is provided for connecting a first panel (6) to a second panel (7) with the first panel having one edge (8) thereof fixed relative to a surface (9) of the second panel with the two panels extending transversely to each other. The connector comprises at least one component (10, 30, 62, 72, 74) having a generally plate-like base (11, 61, 71, 73, 95) with a peripheral edge, an operatively outer surface and an inner surface from which one or more attachment lugs (16, 60, 90) extend that are to be received in an aperture (15) or recess in the first panel at or near said edge thereof. The attachment lugs are configured to retain the anchor unit in the assembled condition of the connector by cooperation with a fastener (22, 52, 65, 81, 93) that passes operatively through a hole (23) associated with the second panel. In the operative position, two lugs are laterally offset relative to each other and are shaped for cooperation with a fastener passing between them such that the fastener tends to urge the two lugs apart to lock the component or components in position relative to the first panel as the fastener is introduced into its operative position.</p> |
