A specific angle is defined between the first axis 91 and the second axis 92, wherein the specific angle is an included angle equal to 90 degrees in this preferred embodiment.
  • The modular structure comprises a containing hole 41, a through hole 51, a fastener 61 and a compression spring 71, wherein the containing hole 41 is formed on the first panel 11 on the first joint surface 21 at the internal wall of the bottom of the recession 32, and the through hole 51 is formed between an external wall 121 of the second panel 12 and the second joint surface 22 at the internal wall of the protrusion 31 and interconnected to the containing hole 41.
  • The fastener 61 is substantially in a pillar shape and movably installed into the containing hole 41. The spring 71 is installed between the internal wall of the containing hole 41 and the fastener 61, so that the spring 71 can drive the front end of the fastener 61 to be elastically implanted into the through hole 51 to fasten the first and second panels 11, 12.
  • In an implementation, a user can insert a sharp external object 8 from the external wall 121 of the second panel 12 into the through hole 51 (as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7), so that the tip of the external object 8 pushes the fastener 61 to resume its position to separate the first and second panels 11, 12, wherein the external object 8 can be a toothpick, a paperclip, a pen point, a thumbtack or any sharp object with a diameter smaller than or equal to the hole diameter of the through hole 51.
  • In addition, the third joint surface 23 and the fourth joint surface 24 have one or more positioning holes 231, 241 respectively, and a positioning element 63 substantially in the shape of a pillar is installed between the positioning holes 231, 241.
