Abstract
The invention features a protective strip assembly having a transparent strip of resilient material secured to a mounting member which displays useful safety and directional information. The resilient strip includes a pair of oppositely disposed, inwardly extending latch members, each extending longitudinally of the latch member and located between one of the edge portions and a point 45 degrees away from the mid-line of the body. The mounting member includes a web portion having a pair of oppositely disposed web-latch extensions extending across a chord of the body, substantially parallel to a tangent to the circumference of the body at its mid-line, and at least one leg member extending from the web portion away from the body. An information-conveying tape or similar sheet material is attached to the surface of the web portion which faces the body such that the information is visible through the protective strip. A pair of oppositely disposed base members, each extend from a leg member, away from each other and each terminate in a base latch portion.
