Abstract

A modular clip is adapted to releasably secure together a pair of articles for movement as unit. Each article has an article body, a lug protruding from the article body, and a transversely-extending flange at the free end of the lug. The clip includes a generally planar clip body defining a central T-shaped opening therein including a wide aperture zone with widely spaced sides and a narrow aperture zone with relatively narrowly spaced sides, the wide and narrow apertures zones being in operative communication with one another. Each of the narrowly spaced sides defines a plane inclined relative to the clip body and extending from the adjacent wide aperture zone to adjacent a far end of the narrow aperture zone, whereby the inclined planes of the clip may be pressure fit intermediate the article body and the article flanges to preclude accidental displacement of the clip from the articles when the pressure-fit clip holds in juxtaposition the lugs of a pair of adjacent articles. The assembly includes, in combination, at least one modular clip and a pair or articles.
