Abstract:
A corner scaffold structure, comprising:three substantially vertical legs; three upper, substantially horizontal legs secured to and connecting said three substantially vertical legs at the upper distal ends thereof and forming a first triangle; three lower, substantially horizontal legs secured to and connecting said three substantially vertical legs and forming a second triangle that is substantially parallel to said first triangle; first and second upper rods secured to and extending from at least one of said vertical legs near the upper distal end thereof, each of said rods adapted for receiving and securing a brace, thereby allowing for the connection of said corner scaffold structure to an adjacent scaffold structure; first and second lower rods secured to and extending from at least one of said vertical legs, each of said rods also adapted for receiving and securing a brace, thereby allowing for the connection of said corner scaffold structure to an adjacent scaffold structure; and one or more double latch connectors, each of said connectors having a generally C-shaped cross-section and comprising: a rear surface defining an elongated slot adapted to receive first and second rods, and upper and lower front surfaces, each defining an elongated slot having an open end and a closed end adapted to receive first and second rods, wherein a brace defining an opening near its distal end can be fit over one of said rods and secured between the rear surface and the upper front surface of said latch connector.
