Building or structural panels may be joined, such as to form walls or floors. The panels may be connected in various orientations via one or more connectors. The connectors may mount to anchors associated with the panels. The panels may have outer skins located over an expanded core comprising a matrix of supporting elongate members and voids or openings, with the anchors located at edges of the panels.

A dessert display stand. The dessert display stand includes a number of panels. Each panel is defined by a first side and a second side. The first side of each panel includes a male interface. The second side of each panel includes a female interface. The male interface is designed to engage the female interface of an adjoining panel. At least one channel is placed in each panel. Each channel is designed to receive a dessert stick therethrough.

A panel may be configured with panel mounts by forming a panel connector accepting slot in the panel and then locating connector mounts in the slot. In another embodiment, a panel may be configured with panel connector mounts by milling a panel to leave areas of panel material which form the mounts and milling the panel behind to connector mounts to define areas for accepting portions of the panel connector. Panels having the defined connector mounts may be connected by one or more panel connectors which engage the connector mounts.

A modular armor, having a rear armored panel including a first rear lateral edge, a second rear lateral edge and a rear bottom edge, where multiple lateral connectors are disposed on the first rear lateral edge and on the second rear lateral edge, the rear armored panel further having a rear bottom extension extending from said rear bottom edge, a first side armored panel, a second side armored panel, and a base armored panel, where the modular armor includes at least one ground connector designed to be threaded through the at least one aperture in a first intermediate platform thereof, at least one aperture in a bottom extension of the first side armored panel and into the ground, and at least one ground connector designed to be threaded through a second intermediate platform thereof, a bottom extension of the second side armored panel and into the ground.

A quick connect is provided to releasably connect two objects while allowing a limited pivot motion between the two connected objects.

A utility skirt for a wire chafing dish rack, wherein the utility skirt is folded around the wire chafing dish rack. The utility skirt having an upper edge, a lower edge, a left edge, and a right edge defining an area of the utility skirt. The upper edge of the utility skirt runs along the upper rim of the wire chafing dish rack. Three tabs extend from the left edge and three slits are made in the utility skirt near the right edge. The three tabs can interlock with the three slits for coupling the left edge to the right edge. Three fold lines divide the utility skirt into four sections, each of the four sections corresponds to the four sides of the wire chafing dish rack. Rim-tabs from the upper edge of the utility skirt folds over the upper rim for supporting the utility skirt over the wire chafing dish rack.

The present invention contemplates an apparatus for, and methods of, securing a bracket or similar device to a support object, such as a tree trunk or pole or post, for the purpose of using said bracket to hold objects, particularly small portable objects such as canister stoves used as camping equipment by campers, backpackers, or outdoorsmen. Embodiments of the bracket comprise interlocked pieces which form a platform which receives a payload. Embodiments of the apparatus have rotating, pivoting pieces which can hold a payload in place. Notches or slots on the apparatus are usable to tie a rope or cord through, which can become wedged into the notches or slots, and this rope or cord can be wrapped around a support object. Frictional surfaces or protrusions on the apparatus assist in gripping the support object. Embodiments of the apparatus can be either folded or disassembled into flat, stackable pieces.

An assembled air shroud includes a first plate and a second plate. The first plate has a first engaging portion, and the second plate has a second engaging portion facing the first engaging portion. The first plate and the second plate are arranged along a first axis, and the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion are detachably engaged along a second axis different from the first axis.

A quick connect is provided to releasably connect two objects while allowing a limited pivot motion between the two connected objects.

A connection between a hose reel and an anchoring support, with an L-shaped mounting bracket attached to the anchoring support, the L-shaped mounting bracket having an extension flange and a mounting flange disposed at an angle to the extension flange with the mounting flange being connected to the anchoring support, and the frame attached to the mounting bracket with the frame supporting the hose reel in a manner that allows the hose reel to rotate with respect to the frame.
