You need to be more specific in the application.
For starters just do a Google search on "knock down furniture connectors" That will give you a wide selection (and sources) for the type of connectors associated with RTA furniture, etc.

I'm guessing if you knew what the thing was, you'd be able to describe it in more detail.
In any event, is a mending plate what you're thinking of?
Or a bed rail fastner?

have not tried that combo of words yet
i did have some luck using interlocking some of the interlocking variety are quite expensive
there are some small ones that are cheaper
i may just make something of wood
hanger with a screw and the board will rest on the hanger
wow they have a lot of products
This kind
works for me; you can also use hinges (screw one half to the fixed thing, the other half to the board, slide the hinge pin out to dismount).
Search bed hardware or knock-down hardware.
just a few examples. John T.

yes previously mentioned but too large for this application
i found these at the macmartin site too they are closest to what i need
i thought about hinges but i only found regular size hinges that have a removable pin and they are too big
How about "keyed" mortise and tenon joints? Or angle iron and nuts and bolts?
... these loose pin hinges are 2 x 3 inches
... buy some extras - only 50 bucks a pair . :-)
These little guys are only about 1 inch -
