  • Patent number: 5695154
    Abstract: A gap filler device applicable to a gap formed between side walls of adjacent panels comprises an elongated horizontal portion extending across the gap and a vertical portion extending into the gap. The vertical portion includes a pair of opposed, spaced apart, planar bearing surface members biased into frictional engagement with the side walls of the gap to resist removal of the gap filler device. The vertical portion has descending legs extending from opposed sides of the horizontal portion to a bight. Ascending legs extend from the bight to terminal ends. Slots are formed in the vertical portion and extend upwardly from the bight at spaced locations along the length of the legs. In one embodiment, a plurality of outwardly projecting spike members are formed on the bearing surface members for engagement with the side walls of the gap.
