SAFETY MAT ACTIVE JOINING TRIM

摘要

An active joining trim assembly allows the assembly's cover member to float on the abutting edge regions of adjacent safety mats. With this configuration, the joining trim assembly functions as an "active," weight-responsive area. In at least one embodiment, the active joining trim assembly comprises a base member, a cover member, and one or more retaining members that clip or otherwise snap the base and cover members together. For example, in one embodiment, the underside of the cover member includes a clip retaining feature, the base member includes a central channel, and the retaining member(s) fasten or otherwise anchor to the clip retaining feature and flexibly clip onto the central channel in sliding, vertical engagement. Equivalently, the retaining member(s) anchor to the base member and flexibly clip onto the clip retaining feature of the cover member.
