Abstract: A unitary connector (1) is provided for interconnecting individual panels on a framework of a partitioning system. The connector has a base plate (2) and prongs (4) located on the base plate for engaging a planar surface of a panel. A hook (3) is arranged to be pivotally connected to the base plate for engagement with the support framework attached to the base plate. Conveniently, a plurality of such connectors (1) can be located in a column one beneath the next or side-by-side as appropriate to the size or the plate being attached to a framework. Each connector can be a one piece unitary connector. The unitary connector advantageously provides a base plate of increased strength, grip and purchase on a panel of a partitioning system, and also a substantial reduction both in manufacturing and fitting costs.
