Balustrade and connector combination

In combination, a balustrade connecting structure, a rail of a balustrade, and a support structure, said connecting structure being used to connect the rail to the support structure, the connecting structure being constructed to be recessed into an end of the rail to enable the connection of the rail to the support structure, the connecting structure comprising:

• a housing unit and at least one connecting pin, said connecting pin being slidably attached to the housing unit, said connecting pin having a spring load, said spring load on the connecting pin acting to keep a predetermined portion of the connecting pin protruding from the housing unit, whereby when said connecting pin is pushed into said housing unit the spring load acts to push the predetermined portion of the connecting pin from the housing unit, therefore when the connecting pin is pushed into the housing unit when the housing unit is recessed in the rail, the rail can then be aligned with at least one prealigned hole in the support structure and the spring load on the connecting pin forces the predetermined portion of the connecting pin to engage with the prealigned hole, thereby neatly connecting the rail of the balustrade to the support structure;
• wherein said housing unit is a tubular housing, said tubular housing having a pair of open ends opposite each other, said connecting structure further including a first cover plate and a second cover plate, said first cover plate and said second cover plate being attached to the tubular housing at opposing ends covering said pair of open ends, said first cover plate and said second cover plate having at least one pin hole sized smaller than said first and second cover plates, said pin holes being positioned in coaxial alignment across an inner portion of said tubular housing, said connecting pin having a first pin end and a second pin end, said connecting pin having a length longer than a length of the tubular housing, said connecting pin having a diameter slightly smaller than an inner diameter of the pin holes so as to allow the connecting pin to freely slide within the pin holes, said connecting pin extending transversely through the pin holes across the inner portion of the tubular housing, wherein said first pin end extends outside of the pin hole of the first cover plate and said second pin end extends outside of the pin hole of the second cover plate, said connecting pin further including a stop means, and a spring retaining means, said stop means being connected to the first pin end, said stop means prohibiting the first pin end from fully entering the inner portion of the tubular housing and allowing the second pin end to extend outside of the pin hole of the second cover plate defining the predetermined portion, said predetermined portion having a length less than a length of the tubular housing, said spring having an uncompressed length less than the length of the tubular housing and longer than the predetermined portion, said spring load including a spring, the spring having a diameter larger than the diameter of the connecting pin and being positioned about the connecting pin within the tubular housing, said diameter of the spring being larger than the inner diameter of the pin hole on the first cover plate, thereby allowing the connecting pin to freely slide within the diameter of the spring and prohibiting the spring from exiting the pin hole of the first cover plate, said spring retaining means being secured to the connecting pin within the tubular housing, said spring retaining means prohibiting the spring from moving past the spring retaining means, said spring retaining means being positioned on the connecting pin so as to allow the spring to be only slightly compressed when said second pin end extends the predetermined portion from the pin hole of the second cover plate.
