Abstract

A connection assembly for offsetting tilting caused by weight difference between two objects includes a first male connector, a second male connector linearly misaligned with the first male connector, a first female connector and a second female connector linearly misaligned with the first female connector. Both the first and second male connectors are formed on a first object and both the first and second female connectors are formed on a second object. Due to the misaligned relationship, weight of the combination between the first object and the second object is redistributed to avoid tilting.

Claims14

Dependent claims

A connection assembly for offsetting tilting due to weight difference between a first object and a second object to be combined with the first object, the connection assembly comprising:

a first male connector adapted to be extended from a longitudinal side face of the first object and having a first tongue stamped in the first male connector and a first boss formed on a side face of the first tongue;
a second male connector linearly misaligned with the first male connector and adapted to be extended from a side face of the first object and having a second tongue stamped in the second male connector and a second boss formed on a side face of the second tongue;
a first female connector adapted to be formed on a longitudinal side face of the second object and having a first indentation adapted to be defined in a bottom face of the longitudinal side face of the second object to receive therein the first male connector and a first through hole defined in a bottom face defining the first indentation to receive therein the first boss of the first male connector;
and
a second female connector adapted to be formed on a side face of the second object and being linearly misaligned with the first female connector, the second female connector having a second indentation adapted to be defined in the bottom face of the longitudinal side face of the second object to receive therein the second male connector and a second through hole defined in a bottom face defining the second indentation to receive therein the second boss such that after combination between the first object and the second object is finished, an overall weight of the first object and the second object is redistributed to avoid tilting;
a cutout being defined in the longitudinal side face of the first object;
and the second male connector being formed on a side face of the cutout such that the second male connector and the first male connector are misaligned.
