A connector assembly for use in a modular structure is intended for temporary usage, and may be assembled and disassembled conveniently. The connector assembly includes a slidable bolt partly mounted within a first panel and slidable from a first position completely within that first panel to a second position partially within an adjacent second panel. Furthermore, the first panel has one male channel and one female channel, adapted to mate with the male channel on an adjacent panel. The male channel may slide into the female channel laterally i.e., without the need for lifting, or rotating either panel into place. At each corner, the structure includes a corner post which emulates the channel into which the sliding bolt moves and permits the securing of panels thereto. In addition, the structure may be mountable to an existing permanent structure by providing special brackets, which emulate the mating structure of adjacent panels.

L'invention concerne un assemblage connecteur destiné à être utilisé dans une structure modulaire à usage temporaire, pouvant être commodément assemblé et désassemblé. L'assemblage connecteur comprend un boulon coulissant monté en partie à l'intérieur d'un premier panneau et que l'on peut déplacer d'une première position, complètement à l'intérieur du premier panneau, à une seconde position, partiellement à l'intérieur d'un second panneau adjacent. Le premier panneau comporte, en outre, un profil mâle et une gorge femelle, conçue pour s'adapter avec le profil mâle d'un panneau adjacent. Le profil mâle peut coulisser latéralement dans la gorge femelle, c'est à dire, sans avoir besoin de lever ou de faire tourner le panneau en place. A chaque coin, la structure comprend un poteau de coin qui émule la gorge dans laquelle le boulon coulissant se déplace et y permet la fixation des panneaux. En outre, la structure peut être montée sur une structure permanente au moyen de supports spéciaux qui émulent la structure d'accouplement de panneaux adjacents.
