Abstract
A clip assembly having first and second clip members. In an example embodiment the first and second clip members are generally matching. Each clip member includes a mounting member adapted to envelope and slide along an edge of an associated mounting support, such as a ceiling T rail. Each clip member further includes a spacer member arranged generally parallel to the mounting member. The clip members are adapted to be mutually engaged by the engaging means included in respective spacer members when the first and second clip members are drawn together as a result of the respective mounting members sliding toward each other along opposed edges of the mounting support. The clip assembly is secured to the mounting support by an external screw and capable of being easily released from it, when necessary.
