Corner assembly and frame comprising such assembly

A frame for a screen or the like, comprising a plurality of side members and a plurality of corner assemblies;

• with each such corner assembly comprising a corner connector having a corner junction and pair of connector arms disposed at approximately 90.degree. relative to each other and in telescopic connected relation with a plurality of side members;
• with said connector arms being spaced apart from each other by said corner junction;
• with said corner junction including an exterior surface not in telescopic connected relation with a said side member;
• with the corner connector having a slideway therein, disposed parallel to, and at least partially within one of its said arms;
• with a slide member carried in said slideway in sliding engagement therewith between extended and retracted positions therein, with said slide member having a retaining protrusion extending therefrom, in a direction generally parallel to said slideway;
• said retaining protrusion extending in protruding relation beyond said corner connector in the extended position of said slide member and being substantially entirely disposed in retracted relation within said corner connector in the retracted position of said slide member;
• and including a retaining button carried by said slide member and being adapted to be manually engaged by a user for moving said slide member between extended and retracted positions thereof, including an elongated opening in the corner junction, generally parallel with said slideway and connecting said slideway with the exterior of said corner junction, and with said retaining button extending from said slide member to the exterior of the corner junction through said opening, for traversal of said button along said opening as said slide member moves between retracted and extended positions.
