| 摘要 |
The present invention is directed to a structural coupler having a cross member support tube and an intersecting support tube connected to secure a cross member to a support member to facilitate structural frame assembly. The cross member support tube and the intersecting support tube are connected such that the use of a weld in the construction of the structural coupler is obviated. The structural coupler is formed from a single piece of metal to provide strength and reliability to the point of coupling between the cross member support tube and the intersecting support tube. The structural coupler includes first and second hem couplings for securing the configuration of the structural coupler. The cross member support tube forms a rectangular channel while the intersecting support tube forms a circular channel. A method of manufacturing the structural coupler is provided. |
