<p>An easy to use, and reuse, separation connector (200) comprises a first component (202) having a plurality of leaf elements (210) with protrusions (211), and a second component (201) having a recess (212) for receiving the leaf element protrusions. The protrusions of the leaf elements are secured within the recess by a tensioned band (320); the protrusions and recess are formed so as to provide an efficient and effective load and torque bearing surface that requires minimal tension on the tensioned band. In a preferred embodiment, the tensioned band is detensioned by a thermal device (571) that melts the band. When the band is melted, springs or other means urge the leaves away from the mating surface, thereby allowing for the separation of the connected items.</p> |
