Abstract
A seat marker assembly including a raceway for receiving and mounting a central base component which includes a seat marker and an LED carrying circuit board positioned to illuminate the seat marker, the raceway further mounting first and second wire way covers on either side of the central base component, the assembly further including an end wire way assembly including a base, an end wire way slide with an integrally formed wire guide, and an end wire way cover, wherein the end wire way slide is configured to slidably mount into the wire way base and the end wire way cover is configured to engage the wire way slide so as to position the wire guide at a selected distance beyond the wire way base.
Claims5
A seat marker assembly comprising:
- a central base component comprising a plurality of surfaces disposed to receive and mount a seat marker component, an LED carrying circuit board, a connector plug and electrical conductors passing therethrough, said central base component having one or more mounting tabs located on respective first and second side surfaces thereof;
- a raceway for mounting on a surface having first and second ribs extending from respective inner vertical sidewalls thereof and positioned to receive the one or more mounting tabs so as to receive and retain said central base component;
- said raceway providing first and second open areas on either side of the central base component;
- first and second wire way covers shaped and dimensioned to respectively cover said first and second open areas and to engage said first and second ribs so as to be held in position on either side of said central base component;
- a seat marker component dimensioned to fit within a space in said central base component and to be retained by said plurality of surfaces;
- an end wire way base component for mounting on said surface at an end of said raceway, said end wire way base component comprising first and second walls and an end vertical wall;
- an end wire way slide component comprising a flat floor having parallel side edges and first and second parallel vertical walls, each lying parallel to a respective side edge, a back wall lying perpendicular to said second side walls, and a wire guide formed at an end thereof, the end wire way slide component having an interior opening formed in said back wall;
- wherein the wire way base and wire way slide are so configured that said wire way slide slidably mounts into said wire way base;
- and
- a wire way slide cover configured to engage respective slots on said first and second side walls to position said end wire way slide at a selected depth of insertion into said end wire way base.

A seat marker assembly comprising:
- a central base portion comprising:
- a first continuous vertical wall segment including a first sidewall and two end walls;
- a second continuous vertical wall segment including an outer sidewall and an inner sidewall, the outer and inner sidewalls being joined by an end wall and being parallel to one another and parallel to said first sidewall, said inner sidewall lying within and adjacent to said first sidewall, said outer sidewall being perpendicularly disposed at an opposite end to a first end wall which forms into a second end wall;
- first and second projecting surfaces;
- and
- respective mounting tabs at opposite ends of said central base portion;
- at least one side tab formed on an outside surface of said first sidewall and on an outside surface of said outer sidewall;
- a raceway having first and second ribs extending from respective inner vertical sidewalls thereof and positioned to receive said at least one side tab so as to receive and retain said central base portion;
- said raceway being of a length so as to provide first and second open areas on either side of the central base portion;
- first and second wire way covers shaped and dimensioned to respectively cover said first and second open areas and to engage said first and second ribs so as to be held in position on either side of said base portion;
- a seat marker component dimensioned to fit snugly within a space in said central base;
- a wire way base component for mounting adjacent an end of said raceway and first and second walls and an end vertical wall;
- a wire way slide comprising a flat floor having parallel side edges and first and second parallel vertical walls, each lying parallel to a respective side edge and a back wall lying perpendicular to second side walls and a wire guide formed at one end thereof and having an interior opening formed in said back wall;
- wherein said first wire way slide slidably mounts into said first wire way base;
- and
- a wire way cover for covering the assembled wire way base and wire way cover.
