Interlocking Clip System

摘要

A first clip and a second clip each having a housing including a top and bottom wall interconnected by side walls defining a hollow interior socket, a connector insert carried in the socket including a base portion having a series of laterally spaced prongs extending parallel with the length of the socket, the prongs having a distal end portion extending outward beyond the housing; the distal end portions of the prongs on the first clip are adapted for engaging the prongs of the second clip in interlocking engagement; the distal end portions of the prongs on the first clip are received into the socket of the second clip, and the distal end portions of the prongs on the second clip are received into the socket of the first clip so that the housing of the first clip is disposed flush against the housing of the second clip to resist movement.
