Connectors for assembled structures

Abstract

This product is a connector for assembled structures used as a connector between panels of a transport container, etc., as shown in "Reference Diagram 1" to "Reference Diagram 3". For example, if side panel A is provided with this product, a convex connector for assembled structures, and has a convex frame between the convex connectors, and side panel B is provided with a concave connector for assembled structures, and has a concave frame between the concave connectors, then by sliding the substantially T-shaped convex portion of the convex connector against the concave portion of the concave frame, the substantially T-shaped convex portion is fitted into the fitting portion of the concave connector, fixing the panels together, and maintaining airtightness by the contact between the convex frame and the concave frame. When removing the side panel, the width of the slide is only the height of the connector for the concave assembly structure. As shown in "Reference Figures 4" to "Reference Figures 6," when removing luggage stored in the bottom of a transport container or in a vehicle with limited ceiling height, the side panel can be attached and detached with only a small upward slide without opening the lid panel, allowing for easy storage or retrieval of luggage from the side panel. Furthermore, as shown in "Reference Figure 7," when this product is used for a partition approximately the height of a person, the partition panel can be assembled and detached with only a small upward slide, similar to the above.
