A framing system (10) is disclosed including three-dimensional structural members (12, 14) formed from planar panels (16) having their edges removably secured together by provisions (48) including slide connectors (66, 174) which receive lugs (52) slideably received in and abutting with latches (56)
A framing system (10) is disclosed including three-dimensional structural members (12, 14) formed from planar panels (16) having their edges removably secured together by provisions (48) including slide connectors (66, 174) which receive lugs (52) slideably received in and abutting with latches (56). The panels (16) include interconnect ports (22) having integral, concentric tubes (24). The exterior faces (18) of the structural members (12, 14) are abutted together, with the structural members (12, 14) being clamped by a clamp (28) having a central wall (30) abutting with the tubes (24) and first and second side walls (32, 34) abutting with the free faces (25) of the tubes (24). Relative rotation is prevented between the clamp (28) and the structural members (12, 14) by detents (44) formed in the clamp (28) which are received in notches (26) formed in the free face (25) of the tubes (24). A hanging accessory (114) includes an end plate (116) having a U-shaped channel (120) formed therein and a cable (122) secured thereto. By sliding the U-shaped channel (120) over the thickness of the tube (24), the hanging accessory (114) is able to pass through the port (22) and be oriented to abut with the tube (24). Provisions (84) are also provided for attaching accessories including a sleeve (86) having a removable cover (88). The sleeve (86) includes a cylindrical portion (96) slideably received in the ports (22) and having detents (102) slideable through the notches (26) of the tubes (24) and abuttable with the tubes (24) intermediate the notches (26).

Modular structural framing system comprising, in combination: first and second structural members each having first and second faces, with the first faces of the first and second structural members having complementary shapes for abutting with each other, with each of the first and second structural members having at least first ports formed therein, with the first ports extending through the first and second faces of the first and second structural members and being of the same size; a clamp comprising, in combination: a primary band including a central wall having a length less than the perimeter of the first ports, with the primary band being generally annular but U-shaped and having first and second free ends, with the primary band having a normal shape which is of a size smaller than and for insertion into the ports, first and second secondary bands each having first and second ends, means for pivotally mounting the first ends of the first and second secondary bands together about a first axis, means for pivotally mounting the second end of the first secondary band relative to the first free end of the primary band, and means for pivotally mounting the second end of the second secondary band relative to the second free end of the primary band, with pivotal movement of the first and second secondary bands about the first axis causing the primary band to distort from its normal shape to further separate the first and second free ends of the primary band; wherein at least the first structural member is three-dimensional and hollow, with the first structural member being formed by a plurality of attachment panels having thicknesses and first edges and by means for removably securing the first edge of one attachment panel to the first edge of another attachment panel, with the removably securing means comprising, in combination: a plurality of latches extending from and equally spaced along the first edge, with each of the latches lying within the same plane, and at least one detent portion formed in each of the latches, with the detent portions intersecting the plane of the latches at a nonlinear angle, with the ports formed in the attachment panels; an accessory comprising, in combination: an end plate having a periphery of a size larger than the port, a channel formed in the end plate and extending from a first point of the periphery to a second point spaced from a third point of the periphery diametrically opposite the first point a distance less than the size of the port, with the channel having a width greater than and for slideably receiving the thickness of the panel, and a support member secured to the end plate, with the attachment panels having rectangular slits spaced from the first edges, inside surfaces and outside surfaces; a clip comprising, in combination: a first portion for abutting with the inside surface of the attachment panel, a second portion extending continuously and at a non-linear angle to the first portion, a third portion extending continuously and at a non-linear angle to the second portion in a direction away from but parallel to the first portion, with the third portion abutting with the outside surface of the attachment panel, and means secured to the third portion for holding accessories to the attachment panel, with at least the first and second portions including rectangular cross sections having a width and thickness for slideable receipt in the rectangular slit, with the second portion spacing the first and second portions a distance generally equal to the thickness of the attachment panel between the inside surface and the outside surface, with the latches and detent portions of the attachment panels being L-shaped, with the latches and detent portions of first and second attachment panels having a generally T-shape in a latched condition; and a connector comprising means for forming a T-shaped slot of a size for slideable receipt upon the generally T-shape of the latches and detent portions of the first and second attachment panels in the latched condition.
