A modular display panel and edge latching system therefor which employs concealed movable latching mechanism that can be actuated between adjacent panels set up, for example, on a floor to lock the panels into vertical alignment and against any tendency of floor unevenness to cause adjacent panels to become misaligned vertically. The components in the latching mechanism which create vertical position locking are actuated by the insertion of actuators typically carried as downward projections on other panels which rest on top of directly floor supported, underlying panels.

1. Concealed, edge-joinder, latch structure for releasably retaining edge-to-edge longitudinal alignment between a pair of laterally adjacent long edges in a pair of display panels comprising, for each edge,an elongate channel member having an elongate internal channel including (a) an elongate exposure slot extending lengthwise in the member and facing outwardly relative to an associated panel, and (b) a base end, and a spaced, open, upper end, communicating with said channel, a coupler including a coupling portion, mounted in said channel adjacent said open, upper end for reversible movement of said coupling portion relative to the channel member between a non-coupling position disposed within said channel, and a coupling position deployed outwardly beyond said exposure slot, said coupling portion, when in the coupling position, being releasably latchingly engageable with a similarly deployed coupling portion of a coupler in another, longitudinally aligned and closely edge-to-edge confronting channel member of a similarly associated panel, and an actuator, reversibly movable longitudinally into and out of said channel via the said open, upper end, operatively engageable with said coupler, and operable, during movement of the actuator longitudinally into said channel, to shift the coupling portion from said non-coupling position toward said deployed coupling position, and, with movement of the actuator longitudinally out of said channel, to permit return of the coupling portion toward the non-coupling position, said coupling portion, when latchingly engaged with the other coupling portion associated with the other coupler in said adjacent channel member, overlapping the other coupling portion wherein the two coupling portions are viewed along a line which generally parallels the long axes of the two channels containing the two couplers.
