Abstract (en)
[origin: CA2322833A1] A fastener (800, 900) connects panel members (840, 850, 940, 950) in a flush position. The fastener (800, 900) includes a pair of connecting members (810, 820, 910, 920) which are snap-fit within apertures provided within each of the panel members (840, 850, 940, 950) for securing the panel members (840, 850, 940, 950) together. For this purpose, at least one of the connecting members (810, 820, 910, 920) is removable from the panel member aperture to disconnect the panel members (840, 850, 940, 950). The fastener (800, 900) allows the panels (840, 850, 940, 950) to be assembled together and disassembled quickly and with little or no tooling.
