Abstract

A furniture connector connects two or more pieces of furniture together or may connect furniture to a wall, embodied, for example, as an adjustable room partition or modular storage unit. The furniture connector has a first spoke and a second spoke, which may be connected to a furniture piece or wall via respective locking mechanisms. The first and second spokes are joined by a pin, along a longitudinal axis of the pin. The connector allows the positions of two attached furniture pieces (or a furniture piece and a wall) to be adjusted about the longitudinal axis at a variety of discrete angles; once set to a desired angle, the connector limits the relative rotational movement of the first spoke and second spoke (about the longitudinal axis.) Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
