System and Method for Securing Power and Communications Cables and Associated Hardware Within Crown Molding
A system for crown molding that enables safely incorporating electrical and communications cabling within crown molding by creating one or more protected paths which inherently prevent overly sharp bends in crown molding corners and by mitigating damage from penetrating punctures through a decorated face designed to fracture when improperly penetrated by a screw or nail, and enables the secure installation of hardware either concealed within the molding or securely and favorably positioned through the decorative face to view or sense a room, and enables additional cable capacity that is concealed within a light reflector to increase lighting efficacy as well as power and data delivery capacity.
Resilient fixing element and a skirting board fixing system comprising a skirting board and such a fixing element
A resilient fixing element for releasably connecting a skirting board with a floor covering, including a first arm located under the floor covering, a second arm located over the floor covering and to be engaged with the skirting board, a connecting face connecting the first arm with the second arm, and a resilient abutment element located in an internal space between the arms. The resilient abutment element is moveable between a first position in which it is constrained and blocked lying along the connecting face and a second position in which it is extended into the internal space. An engagement element is provided to block the abutment element in its first position and to release the abutment element into its second position. A skirting board fixing system includes a skirting board and the resilient fixing element as described, the skirting board consisting of a wall abutting covering arm and a floor abutting arm, the latter being engaged with the fixing element.
Ventilation screed device and assembly
A ventilation screed comprising an upper attachment flange having a top portion and a bottom portion and at least one opening in the top portion; a drip edge protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange; a drainage cavity protrusion protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange above the drip edge, wherein the drainage cavity protrusion has a vertical portion of a L-shaped drainage trough portion and a bottom portion having at least one drainage opening along a meeting point of the upper attachment flange and the drainage cavity protrusion, an upper ground portion in communication with the L-shaped drainage trough portion and a drainage cavity shroud in communication with the upper ground portion, wherein the drainage cavity shroud extends past the drip edge.
System and method for securing power and communications cables and associated hardware within crown molding
A system for crown molding that enables safely incorporating electrical and communications cabling within crown molding by creating one or more protected paths which inherently prevent overly sharp bends in crown molding corners and by mitigating damage from penetrating punctures through a decorated face designed to fracture when improperly penetrated by a screw or nail, and enables the secure installation of hardware either concealed within the molding or securely and favorably positioned through the decorative face to view or sense a room, and enables additional cable capacity that is concealed within a light reflector to increase lighting efficacy as well as power and data delivery capacity.
BUILDING SKIRTING BASE
A mobile home skirting base comprising: a horizontal surface; and two substantially equal, substantially symmetrical vertical surfaces co-extruded with the horizontal surface forming a channel to insert a mobile home skirting panel wherein the vertical surfaces each having an inwardly oriented retention edge that secure the mobile home skirting panel. The height of the vertical surfaces and the inward orientation of the vertical surfaces' retention edges, along with the other aspects of the invention, allows the mobile home skirting base to provide strong support, stabilization, and protection of the skirting panels.
VENTILATION SCREED DEVICE AND ASSEMBLY
A ventilation screed comprising an upper attachment flange having a top portion and a bottom portion and at least one opening in the top portion; a drip edge protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange; a drainage cavity protrusion protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange above the drip edge, wherein the drainage cavity protrusion has a vertical portion of a L-shaped drainage trough portion and a bottom portion having at least one drainage opening along a meeting point of the upper attachment flange and the drainage cavity protrusion, an upper ground portion in communication with the L-shaped drainage trough portion and a drainage cavity shroud in communication with the upper ground portion, wherein the drainage cavity shroud extends past the drip edge.
Below top of wall ventilation screed device and assembly
A ventilation screed having an upper attachment flange having a top portion and a bottom portion and at least one opening in the top portion; a drip edge protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange; a drainage cavity protrusion protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange above the drip edge, wherein the drainage cavity has an L-shaped drainage trough portion having at least one drainage opening in a bottom portion, an upper ground portion in communication with the L-shaped drainage trough portion and a drainage cavity shroud in communication with the upper ground portion, wherein the drainage cavity shroud extends past the drip edge.
BELOW TOP OF WALL VENTILATION SCREED DEVICE AND ASSEMBLY
A ventilation screed having an upper attachment flange having a top portion and a bottom portion and at least one opening in the top portion; a drip edge protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange; a drainage cavity protrusion protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange above the drip edge, wherein the drainage cavity has an L-shaped drainage trough portion having at least one drainage opening in a bottom portion, an upper ground portion in communication with the L-shaped drainage trough portion and a drainage cavity shroud in communication with the upper ground portion, wherein the drainage cavity shroud extends past the drip edge.
