A connector for temporary scaffolding at an end of a lateral member, to be wedge-connected to a receiver around a strut, includes: a wedge body provided movably at the end of the lateral member upward and downward relative to the lateral member; a locking body including a claw formed such that, as a result of the wedge-body's moving downward, the claw could travel from initial to locking position with respect to the receiver; and a biasing body capable of pressing the locking body toward the wedge body, wherein the wedge body includes a shoulder protruding toward the locking body, the locking body includes an interfering portion protruding toward the wedge body, and when the claw is at the initial position, the shoulder is blocked by the interfering portion from moving upward, thereby preventing the wedge body from moving upward and the locking body from traveling toward the biasing body.

A coupling system (10) for coupling together elongate members (6) is described. The coupling system (10) comprises a mounting member (1) having a mounting surface (8). A first locating member (2) is mounted on the mounting member (1) and a second locating member (2) is adapted to be mounted on the mounting member (1), in use. A number of support members (3) are provided and each support member (3) comprises two locating member engagement formations (31, 32), a mounting member engagement surface (27) and a first elongate member support formation (28). The engagement surface (27) of a support member (3) is adapted to be engaged with the mounting surface (8) of the mounting member (1) and one locating member engagement formation (31, 32) is adapted to be engaged with each locating member (2) to mount the support member (3) on the mounting member (1).

The disclosure is directed to a clamp for connecting a ledger to a shoring post. The clamp includes a base member, a ledger-connecting member, and a first jaw, which are fixed connected to each other. The clamp includes a rotatable member inserted into the base member, which is rotatable and slidable in the base member along a longitudinal axis. A portion of the rotatable member is accessible via the slot of the base member. The clamp includes a second jaw fixedly connected to the rotatable member. The clamp further includes a wedge, and when the wedge is inserted into the slot of the base member to engage the rotatable member in a lock position, the first and second jaws are locked to capture two sides of a shoring post.

A scaffold ledger providing a raised support surface of the elongate structural member with the opposed ledger heads being downwardly and outwardly offset. Each ledger head includes cover flaps that extend the raised support surface above the ledger heads in a cover position. The scaffold ledger cooperates with scaffold posts and scaffold planks to allow for a continuous work platform above an intermediate scaffold support post and/or across supporting ledgers.

The present invention provides a scaffold assembly, in particular a combination of a conventional tubular scaffold tube or pole and a rosette, type coupling which enables the connection of additional scaffold components to the scaffold assembly, the coupling and tubular element being fixed relative to one another by means of at least one abutment which is cold formed in the tubular element such as to fix the coupling in position relative thereto.

One embodiment of the invention is a horizontal scaffold truss that has upper and lower horizontal scaffold members offset but fixedly joined with braces. Each upper and lower members have a connector positioned on each end of the respective lower and upper members, where at least one of the connectors is pivotally mounted on the respective lower or upper connector, and the connecters are engageable with an annular member positioned on a vertical scaffold member.
