Abstract
A force transmitting connection for interconnecting a pair of members to transmit force therebetween includes a pair of spaced apart brackets secured to one of the members and disposed on opposite sides of the other member with each of the brackets having an open-ended substantially U-shaped slot formed therein. A force transmitting device is connected to and projects outwardly from the other member and is nested within the U-shaped slots. A retainer apparatus bridges the space between the brackets and is removably secured to the brackets and has a pair of spaced projections which are disposed on opposite sides of the other member and extend into the slot embracing the force transmitting device to retain the force transmitting device within the slots.
