[0101] FIGS. 1A-5 illustrate an exemplary trim assembly 10 joined to a substrate S to form a trimmed assembly 75. As seen in FIG. 1A, the trim assembly 10 includes a first trim member 12 and a second trim member 14. The first trim member 12 includes an aesthetically-pleasing surface 12a and a substrate-facing surface 12b. The second trim member 14 includes an aesthetically-pleasing surface 14a and a substrate-facing surface 14b.

[0102] With continued reference to FIG. 1A, the substrate S is defined by a body S.sub.B having an upper surface S.sub.U, a lower surface S.sub.L and a side surface S.sub.S joining the upper surface S.sub.U to the lower surface S.sub.L. The body S.sub.B is defined by a thickness S.sub.T extending between the upper surface S.sub.U to the lower surface S.sub.L. The side surface S.sub.S forms a passage S.sub.P extending through the thickness S.sub.T of the body S.sub.B. The passage S.sub.P extending through the thickness S.sub.T of the body S.sub.B may be defined by a diameter D.sub.S.

[0103] The aesthetically-pleasing surface 12a of the first trim member 12 may include any desirable shape or surface profile. In some instances, the aesthetically-pleasing surface 12a includes an inner side surface 12a.sub.1, an outer side surface 12a.sub.2 and an intermediate surface 12a.sub.3 joining the inner side surface 12a.sub.1 to the outer side surface 12a.sub.2. The inner side surface 12a.sub.1 defines a passage 16 extending through the first trim member 12. The passage 16 extending through the first trim member 12 may be defined by a diameter D.sub.12.

[0104] The aesthetically-pleasing surface 14a of the second trim member 14 may include any desirable shape or surface profile. In some instances, the aesthetically-pleasing surface 14a includes an inner side surface 14a.sub.1, an outer side surface 14a.sub.2 and an intermediate surface 14a.sub.3 joining the inner side surface 14a.sub.1 to the outer side surface 14a.sub.2. The inner side surface 14a.sub.1 defines a passage 18 extending through the second trim member 14. The passage 18 extending through the second trim member 14 may be defined by a diameter D.sub.14.

[0105] A first plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 20 extend axially away from the substrate-facing surface 12b of the first trim member 12. In some instances, the first plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 20 includes a first projection 20a, a second projection 20b, a third projection 20c and a fourth projection 20d that are respectively offset by approximately 90°.

In some instances, the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 426.sub.1 includes a first passage 426a, a second passage 426c, a third passage 426e and a fourth passage 426g. Furthermore, as seen in FIG. 21A, a plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 426.sub.2 extends axially away from the substrate-facing surface 412b of the first trim member 412. The plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 426.sub.2 is circumferentially-aligned with the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 426.sub.1. In some instances, the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 426.sub.2 includes a first projection 426b, a second projection 426d, a third projection 426f and a fourth projection 426h.

[0174] Unlike the previously-described embodiments, the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 426.sub.1 and the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 426.sub.2 are not exclusively-grouped in pairs; rather, one passage 426a, 426c, 426e, 426g and one projection 426b, 426d, 426f, 426h of each of the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 426.sub.1 and the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 426.sub.2 are paired to define a plurality of passage-and-projection pairs 428.

[0175] In some examples, the first passage 426a and the first projection 426b are arranged as a first passage-and-projection pair 428a of the plurality of passage-and-projection pairs 428. The second passage 426c and the second projection 426d are arranged as a second passage-and-projection pair 428b of the plurality of passage-and-projection pairs 428.

Each passage-and-projection pair 428a, 428b, 428c, 428d is respectively offset by approximately 90°.

[0176] Each of the first passage 426a, the second passage 426c, the third passage 426e and the fourth passage 426g defines a spatial void that geometrically corresponds to a dimension defined by a distal conical portion (see, e.g., 444b) and at least a portion of a length of a cylindrical portion (see, e.g., 444b) of an axially-extending body (see, e.g., 444) of each of a first projection (see, e.g., 440b), a second projection (see, e.g., 440d), a third projection (see, e.g., 440f) and a fourth projection (see, e.g., 440h) of a plurality of projections (see, e.g., 442.sub.2).

The distal conical portion 430b includes an axial surface 430b.sub.A that extends from the radial outer surface 430a.sub.RO of the cylindrical portion 430a and terminates at a tip 430b.sub.T. Each of the first projection 426b, the second projection 426d, the third projection 426f, and the fourth projection 426h is defined by a length dimension (not shown) extending between the substrate-facing surface 412b of the first trim member 412 and the tip 430b.sub.T of the distal conical portion 430b.

[0178] Referring to FIG. 24, a first circular perimeter is shown generally at a first dashed circular line D1, and a second circular perimeter is shown generally at a second dashed circular line D2, which is concentrically arranged with respect to the first dashed circular line D1. A radial double-arrow line R is shown radially extending between the first dashed circular line D1 and the second dashed circular line D2. The first dashed circular line D1 is shown extending across a radially-outwardly-most portion of the first plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 420. The second dashed circular line D2 is shown tangentially extending across a radially-inwardly-most portion of each passage 426a, 426c, 426e, 426g and projection 426b, 426d, 426f, 426h of the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 426.sub.1 and the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 426.sub.2. The radial double-arrow line R demonstrates that each passage 426a, 426c, 426e, 426g and projection 426b, 426d, 426f, 426h of the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 426.sub.1 and the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 426.sub.2is arranged radially outwardly with respect to the first plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 420.

The radially-extending portion 436 includes a radially-outwardly-facing surface 436.sub.RO and a lower shoulder surface 436.sub.SL and an upper shoulder surface 436.sub.SU. The radially-outwardly-facing surface 436.sub.RO of the radially-extending portion 436 connects the lower shoulder surface 436.sub.SL to the upper shoulder surface 436.sub.SU. The radially-extending portion 436 is defined by a thickness T.sub.436 extending between the lower shoulder surface 436.sub.SL and the upper shoulder surface 436.sub.SU.

[0181] Referring again to FIG. 21A, the radially-extending portion 436 defines a plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 438. The plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 438 extends axially through the thickness T.sub.436 (see, e.g., FIG. 23A.sub.2) of the radially-extending portion 436. In some instances, the first plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 438 includes a first passage 438a, a second passage 438b, a third passage 438c and a fourth passage 438d that are respectively offset by approximately 90°. Each of the first passage 438a, the second passage 438b, the third passage 438c and the fourth passage 438d includes a substantially arcuate shape.

[0182] Referring to FIG. 21A, a plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 440.sub.1 extends axially into the substrate-facing surface 414b of the second trim member 414. In some instances, the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 440.sub.1 includes a first passage 440a, a second passage 440c, a third passage 440e and a fourth passage 440g. Furthermore, as seen in FIG. 21A, a plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 440.sub.2 extends axially away from the substrate-facing surface 414b of the second trim member 414. The plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 440.sub.2 is circumferentially-aligned with the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 440.sub.1. In some instances, the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 440.sub.2 includes a first projection 440b, a second projection 440d, a third projection 440f, and a fourth projection 440h.

[0183] Unlike the previously-described embodiments, the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 440.sub.1 and the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 440.sub.2 are not exclusively-grouped in pairs; rather, one passage 440a, 440c, 440e, 440g and one projection 440b, 440d, 440f, 440h of each of the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 440.sub.1 and the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 440.sub.2 are paired to define a plurality of passage-and-projection pairs 442.

[0184] In some examples, the first passage 440a and the first projection 440b are arranged as a first passage-and-projection pair 442a of the plurality of passage-and-projection pairs 442. The second passage 440c and the second projection 440d are arranged as a second passage-and-projection pair 442b of the plurality of passage-and-projection pairs 442. The third passage 440e and the third projection 440f are arranged as a third passage-and-projection pair 442c of the plurality of passage-and-projection pairs 442. The fourth passage 440g and the fourth projection 440h are arranged as a fourth passage-and-projection pair 442d of the plurality of passage-and-projection pairs 442. Each passage-and-projection pair 442a, 442b, 442c, 442d are respectively offset by approximately 90°.

[0185] Each of the first passage 440a, the second passage 440c, the third passage 440e and the fourth passage 440g defines a spatial void that geometrically corresponds to a dimension defined by a distal conical portion (see, e.g., 430b) and at least a portion of a length of a cylindrical portion (see, e.g., 430b) of an axially-extending body (see, e.g., 430) of each of a first projection (see, e.g., 426b), a second projection (see, e.g., 426d), a third projection (see, e.g., 426f) and a fourth projection (see, e.g., 426h) of a plurality of projections (see, e.g., 426.sub.2). Each of the first passage 440a, the second passage 440c, the third passage 440e and the fourth passage 440g defines a length dimension extending between the substrate-facing surface 414b of the second trim member 414 and a distal tip-receiving surface (not shown) that geometrically corresponds to a tip (see, e.g., 430b.sub.T) of the distal conical portion 430b of each of the first projection 426b, the second projection 426d, the third projection 426f, and the fourth projection 426h of the plurality of pairs of projections 426.sub.2.

[0186] Referring to FIG. 22A.sub.2, each of the first projection 426b, the second projection 426d, the third projection 426f, and the fourth projection 426h includes an axially-extending body 444 defined by a proximal cylindrical portion 444a and a distal conical portion 444b. The proximal cylindrical portion 444a includes a proximal end 444a.sub.P, a distal end 444a.sub.D and a radial outer surface 444a.sub.RO. The distal conical portion 444b includes an axial surface 444b.sub.A that extends from the radial outer surface 444a.sub.RO of the cylindrical portion 444a and terminates at a tip 444b.sub.T. Each of the first projection 440b, the second projection 440d, the third projection 440f, and the fourth projection 440h is defined by a length dimension L.sub.440 extending between the substrate-facing surface 414b of the second trim member 414 and the tip 444b.sub.T of the distal conical portion 444b.

[0187] Referring to FIG. 25, a third circular perimeter is shown generally at a third dashed circular line D3, and a fourth circular perimeter is shown generally at a fourth dashed circular line D4, which is concentrically arranged with respect to the third dashed circular line D3. A radial double-arrow line R is shown radially extending between the third dashed circular line D3 and the fourth dashed circular line D4. The third dashed circular line D3 is shown extending across the radially-outwardly-facing surface 436.sub.RO of the radially-extending portion 436 of the circumferential projection 432. The fourth dashed circular line D4 is shown tangentially extending across both of a radially-inwardly-most portion of the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 440.sub.1 and the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 440.sub.2. The radial double-arrow line R demonstrates that both of the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 440.sub.1 and the plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 440.sub.2 are arranged radially outwardly with respect to the radially-outwardly-facing surface 436.sub.RO of the radially-extending portion 436 of the circumferential projection 432.

[0188] FIG. 26 provides an exemplary method 500 of forming a trimmed assembly 75, 175, 275, 375, 475 by utilizing the trim assembly 10, 100, 200, 300, 400 and the substrate S. The substrate S may include any desirable material (e.g. leather or an artificial leather) such that the trimmed assembly 75, 175, 275, 375, 475 may be said to form a leather good or an artificial leather good. The leather good or artificial leather good may include, but is not limited to: a belt, a strap (e.g., for a purse or satchel), a wallet, a handbag or the like.

[0189] As seen in FIGS. 2A-3A, 7A-8A, 12A-13A, 17A-18A, and 22A-23A, the method 500 includes arranging 502 the substrate-facing surface 12b, 112b, 212b, 312b, 412b of the first trim member 12, 112, 212, 312, 412 opposite the upper surface S.sub.U of the substrate S. Furthermore, as seen in FIGS. 2A-3A, 7A-8A, 12A-13A, 17A-18A, and 22A-23A, the method also includes arranging 504 the substrate-facing surface 14b, 114b, 214b, 314b, 414b of the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414 opposite the lower surface S.sub.L of the substrate S.

[0190] Referring to FIGS. 2B-3B, 7B-8B, 12B-13B, 17B-18B, and 22B-23B, the method 500 also includes joining 506 the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414 to the substrate S by axially inserting (according to the direction of the arrow X) the circumferential projection 32, 132, 232, 332, 432 into the passage S.sub.P extending through the thickness S.sub.T of the body S.sub.B of the substrate S. The radially-extending portion 36, 136, 236, 336, 436 of the circumferential projection 32, 132, 232, 332, 432 defines a diameter that is greater than the diameter D.sub.S of the passage S.sub.P extending through the thickness S.sub.T of the body S.sub.B of the substrate S. The substrate S may include a flexible or stretchable material (or, in some instances. The substrate S may be formed with one or more radially-projecting perforations or slits (not shown) at the passage S.sub.P) in order to permit the radially-extending portion 36, 136, 236, 336, 436 to: (1) axially pass in the direction of the arrow X from an initial arrangement 504 opposite the lower surface S.sub.L of the substrate S; (2) through the passage S.sub.P in the direction of the arrow X; and (3) axially beyond the upper surface S.sub.U of the substrate S.

[0191] Once the radially-extending portion 36, 136, 236, 336, 436 is axially arranged beyond the upper surface S.sub.U of the substrate S, the lower shoulder surface 36.sub.SL, 136.sub.K, 236.sub.SL, 336.sub.SL, 436.sub.SL, of the radially-extending portion 36, 136, 236, 336, 436 may be arranged adjacent to, or, in a spaced-apart, opposing relationship with respect to the upper surface S.sub.U of the substrate S to thereby prevent or mitigate the circumferential projection 32, 132, 232, 332, 432 to pass axially through the passage S.sub.P in a direction opposite the arrow X. Furthermore, once the radially-extending portion 36, 136, 236, 336, 436 is axially arranged beyond the upper surface S.sub.U of the substrate S, the substrate-facing surface 14b, 114b, 214b, 314b, 414b of the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414 is arranged adjacent to, or, in an opposing relationship with respect to the lower surface S.sub.L of the substrate S. A gap or spacing extending between the lower shoulder surface .sup.36.sub.SL, 136.sub.SL, 236.sub.SL, 336.sub.SL, 436.sub.SL and the substrate-facing surface 14b, 114b, 214b, 314b, 414b of the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414 may be slightly greater than (or, in some examples, slightly less than) the thickness S.sub.T extending between the upper surface S.sub.U and the lower surface S.sub.L of the body S.sub.B of the substrate S; therefore, the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414 may be arranged in a loose orientation (or, in some examples, a friction-fit orientation) with respect to the of the body S.sub.B of the substrate S.

[0192] The axially-extending portion 34, 134, 234, 334, 434 of the circumferential projection 32, 132, 232, 332, 432 defines a diameter that is slightly less than (or, in some examples, slightly greater than) the diameter D.sub.S of the passage S.sub.P extending through the thickness S.sub.T of the body S.sub.B of the substrate S. Therefore, the axially-extending portion 34, 134, 234, 334, 434 may be arranged in a loose orientation (or, in some examples, a friction-fit orientation) with respect to the side surface S.sub.S that forms the passage S.sub.P.

[0193] As described above, in some instances, projections 40a-40h, 240a-240h, 340c-340d & 340g-340h, 440b & 440d & 440f & 440h axially extend away from the substrate-facing surface 14b, 114b, 214b, 314b, 414b of the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414. Therefore, as seen in FIG. 2B, for example, when the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414 includes the projections 40a-40h, 240a-240h, 340c-340d & 340g-340h, 440b & 440d & 440f & 440h that axially extend away from the substrate-facing surface 14b, 114b, 214b, 314b, 414b, the projections 40a-40h, 240a-240h, 340c-340d & 340g-340h, 440b & 440d & 440f & 440h axially engage and project into the thickness S.sub.T of the body S.sub.B of the substrate S when the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414 is joined 506 to the substrate S.

[0194] Referring to FIGS. 2C-3C, 7C-8C, 12C-13C, 17C-18C, and 22C-23C, after the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414 is joined 506 to the substrate S, the method 500 also includes axially disposing 508 (according to the direction of the arrow X′, which is opposite the direction of the arrow X) the first plurality of circumferentially-arranged projections 20, 120, 220, 320, 420 of the first trim member 12, 112, 212, 312, 412 within the plurality of circumferentially-arranged passages 38, 138, 238, 338, 438 formed by the radially-extending portion 36, 136, 236, 336, 436 of the second trim member 14, 114, 214, 314, 414.
