Joint for the angular connection of a pair of hollow profile members (50) having an angular configuration corresponding to the angle of the assembled profile members (50) and comprising a slide base portion (2, 2, 2), a sheet metal portion (1, 1) superimposed thereupon and a bolt (5) passing through the sheet metal portion (1, 1) and screwed into a nut (4) mounted onto the base portion (2, 2, 2), wherein tightening of bolt (5) pushes upwardly extending surfaces on either side of portion (1, 1) whereby their sharp edges indent the walls of the hollow profile members being connected. The indentation and efficient angular connection of the hollow profile members is enhanced through: a) forming of the sharp edges of the sheet metal to align an aberrant edge thereof in an indentation appropriate direction, b) appropriately orienting the sheet metal portion (1, 1) to comply with a set of predetermined geometrical parameters and c) selectively employing varying embodiments of the slide base portion to obtain rapprochement of the points of indentation of the walls being indented.

A cornerlock is used with a frame assembly. The frame assembly includes first and second frame members each having walls defining interior voids. The cornerlock extends into the interior void of each of the first and second frame members. The cornerlock comprises first and second body members mating with the interior voids of the first and second frame members, respectively. Each body member has proximal and distal ends and are rigidly fixed to one another. The first body member has a leg and an arm both extending from the proximal end to the distal end. The leg is resistant to deflection. The arm is deflectable about the proximal end and immediately deflects upon engagement with the first frame member for engaging the leg with one of the plurality of walls and biasing the arm into engagement with another one of the plurality of walls of the first frame member.

A screen frame includes at least two lineal members and a corner brace securing the two lineal members together. A turn piece latch is rotatably secured in an aperture in the corner brace. The turn piece latch includes a latch portion releasbly securing the screen frame to a window structure.

A frame with segments that are in flush with each other is disclosed. The frame of the present invention comprises a plurality of segments, a plurality of outer retaining units and a plurality of inner retaining units. The segments are connected together to form a frame. Each outer retaining unit is disposed on the rear outer side of the juncture of each pair of neighboring segments. Each inner retaining unit is disposed on the rear inner side of the juncture of each pair of neighboring segments. In this manner, each pair of neighboring segments may be tightly joined together and the segments of the frame may be in flush with each other.
