Connector and method of use of same

A connector comprising:

• a first body having a base portion and a protrusion, the protrusion extending away from the base portion along a first direction, the first body having a first cavity that extends into the protrusion and towards the base portion along the first direction;
• a second body having a second cavity, the second cavity shaped to receive the protrusion such that rotation of the first body relative to the second body is blocked;
• a first fastener having a third cavity, the first fastener securable to the first body such that an entirety of the first fastener is positioned within the first cavity and such that translation of the first fastener relative to the first body is blocked;
• and
• a second fastener having a proximal portion and a distal portion, the distal portion securable within the third cavity such that translation of the first fastener relative to the second fastener is blocked,
• wherein the connector includes an assembled configuration in which the protrusion is positioned in the second cavity, the first fastener is positioned within the first cavity, and the second fastener is positioned within the third cavity, and when in the assembled configuration translation of the second body relative to the first body along the first direction is blocked.

A connector comprising:

• a first body having a base portion and a protrusion, the protrusion extending away from the base portion along a first direction, the first body having a first cavity that extends into the protrusion and towards the base portion along the first direction, and the first body includes an inner surface that has threads;
• a second body having a second cavity, the second cavity shaped to receive the protrusion such that rotation of the first body relative to the second body is blocked;
• a first fastener having a third cavity, the first fastener having an outer surface that has threads that correspond to the threads of the first body, and the first fastener is securable within the first cavity;
• and
• a second fastener having a proximal portion and a distal portion, the distal portion securable within the third cavity such that translation of the first fastener relative to the second fastener is blocked,
• wherein the connector includes an assembled configuration in which the protrusion is positioned in the second cavity, the first fastener is positioned within the first cavity, and the second fastener is positioned within the third cavity, and when in the assembled configuration translation of the second body relative to the first body along the first direction is blocked;
• and
• wherein in the assembled configuration the first fastener is positioned and secured within the first cavity such that translation of the first fastener relative to the first body in the first direction is blocked by engagement of the first body inner surface threads and the first fastener outer surface threads.

A connector comprising:

• a first body having a base portion and a protrusion, the protrusion extending away from the base portion along a first direction, the first body having a first cavity that extends into the protrusion and towards the base portion along the first direction;
• a second body having a second cavity, the second cavity shaped to receive the protrusion such that rotation of the first body relative to the second body is blocked;
• a third body having a plurality of through holes, each of the plurality of through holes shaped to receive the protrusion;
• a first fastener having a third cavity, the first fastener securable within the first cavity such that translation of the first fastener relative to the first body is blocked;
• and
• a second fastener having a proximal portion and a distal portion, the distal portion securable within the third cavity such that translation of the first fastener relative to the second fastener is blocked,
• wherein when the protrusion is positioned in the second cavity, when the first fastener is positioned within the first cavity, and when the second fastener is positioned within the third cavity, translation of the second body relative to the first body along the first direction is blocked.
