Abstract (en)
[origin: US4785565A] Display panels for ready assembly and disassembly to form walls or shelves particularly suitable for trade show displays and the like, have sections of elongated cylindrical metal tubing having a first channel attached to edges of the panels to be used in the display. An internal expandable open groove is provided in the metal tubing for receiving a flat connecting member with ribs on opposite edges thereof to snap-fit into and engage the groove in the metal tubing. Connecting members then are used to interconnect the sections of tubing attached to adjacent edges of different panels to permit assembly and disassembly of the various panels without the use of any tools, while providing a rigid display section.
