ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The invention concerns quick release fastening means particularly for coupling furniture parts. In a preferred form fastening means for releasably securing together first and second parts comprise a first substantially planar member defining a slot having a relatively wide portion and a relatively narrow portion and defining an aperture, the narrow portion having an effective centre spaced from the effective centre of the wide portion by a predetermined distance. A second member includes a stud having a head and a body, the head being dimensioned to pass through said wide portion but not through the narrow portion of the slot and the body being dimensioned to be movable from the wide portion along the narrow portion, a peg dimensioned to be received in the aperture, and a strip of springy material on which the peg is mounted and effectively connected to the stud, whereby the peg can move away from the plane of the first member. The arrangement is such that when the head is inserted through the wide portion of the slot, the peg is displaced rearwardly by contact with the first member so as to bend the strip, and when the stud is displaced transversely through said distance with the body traversing the narrow portion of the slot the peg will enter the aperture under the bias of the strip to prevent reverse transverse movement until the peg is depressed.
