Method for Producing a Flash Coving Profile and Method for Arranging the Obtained Flash Coving Profile in the Corner Between a Floor and a Wall
The invention relates to a method for producing a flash coving profile, including the steps of: providing an elongate metal sheet with a first longitudinal edge and a second edge opposing, and preferably parallel to, the first edge; adhering a flexible and preferably resilient flooring to a first face of the metal sheet, the flooring extending from the first edge to at least the second edge; and bending a cove into the metal sheet with the flooring adhered to it along a bend line which is parallel to and spaced apart from the first edge and on the side to which the flooring is adhered. The invention further relates to a method for arranging a flash coving profile obtained by the method according to the invention in the corner between a floor and a wall.
Flexible corner trim product
A trim piece for sealing a work surface including a body having a first side, a second side, and a span disposed between the first side and the second side, wherein the first side and the second side are joined at a junction defining an angle between the first side and the second side of between 80 degrees and 100 degrees, a topcap is affixed to the span of the body, wherein the topcap includes a left side having a first wing and a right side having a second wing, an adhesive is bonded to the first side of the body and an aperture is disposed within the body.
Floor corner guard apparatus and method
A floor cover guard for protection of a corner formed by a pair of adjoining walls and a floor against debris accumulation. The floor corner guard has an elongated wall portion having sufficient vertical dimensions to extend above conventional baseboard, molding, and similar architectural details. A sloping base extends from the wall portion, downwardly and forwardly at an angle of between 25 and 75 degrees in relation to a vertical axis of the wall member. The wall portion has an upper edge and the base has a tapered forward edge to facilitate sealing engagement of the wall portion and the base with the walls and the floor, respectively. Some embodiments provide for a support brace extending outwardly from the wall portion opposite the base; the support brace is designed to fit under the baseboards, moldings and the like. During cleaning, the curved protector allows for easy removal of debris.
Wall skirting for floor coverings and method of manufacturing a wall skirting
Factory-prefabricated wall skirting for floor coverings made of plastic, PVC, rubber, linoleum or similar materials, for manufacturing a moisture-proof wall closure, wherein the floor-side wall skirting is produced from a strip cutting of the floor covering and comprises a bending area, about which the strip cutting is bent, wherein in the convex bending area of the strip cutting the material is partially removed and replaced by a filling material.
Systems and methods for coving a faceted room
The present disclosure describes novel systems and methods for converting a faceted room with into a cyclorama. Four system embodiments, EMB1, EMB2, EMB3, and EMB4, are disclosed and have several common elements, including a corner coving piece (CCP) and a bridging coving piece (BCP). EMB1 and EMB2 further comprise elements that collectively facilitate the alignment of adjoining pieces to form a seamless topology. EMB3 is a more basic embodiment that trades some alignment provisions for improved manufacturing simplicity and lower cost. EMB4 is distinguished by an embodiment where the main system elements can be fabricated from readily available materials by a non-expert using basic household tools; a method is disclosed herein to describe the construction steps as part of the overall process of converting a faceted room into a cyclorama. The two final disclosed methods guide the use of EMB1 or EMB2 for coving.
MODULAR CURBS
Provided herein are protective mold devices for the protection of structural surfaces, equipment, machinery, and users thereof. In particular, mold devices for securing to a structural surface (e.g., wall, divider, door opening frame, etc.) are provided that form a cavity between the structural surface and the mold for impregnation with a filler material.
ADHESIVE BASEBOARD
The present disclosure generally relates to baseboards and methods of making and using baseboards. Some baseboards described herein include a foam body having a first major surface opposite and separated from a second major surface and a top surface opposite and separated from a bottom surface; the foam body including a foam having a density of between about 20 kg/m.sup.3 and about 100 kg/m.sup.3; a rigid coating on one of the first or second major surfaces of the foam body; the rigid coating having a modulus of elasticity of between about 1000 MPa and about 10,000 MPa and a thickness of between about 200 to about 1000 micrometers; and optionally an adhesive layer on the other of the first or second major surfaces of the foam body. In some embodiments, the baseboards have a modulus of elasticity of at least 100 MPa. This ensures that they are sufficiently rigid while remaining hand-cuttable.
INSIDE CORNER TRIM PRODUCT
A flexible inside corner trim piece is formed with concave depressions at hinge portions where wings attach to the body. The trim piece can be formed such that wings and a top cap lay flat in plane perpendicular to body or wings and top cap curve at an angle. Hinge portions can be narrow or wide and symmetrical or asymmetrical. The trim piece can be dyed, paintable, or present another decorative surface. The trim piece can include embedded lighting.
FLOOR CORNER GUARD APPARATUS AND METHOD
A floor cover guard for protection of a corner formed by a pair of adjoining walls and a floor against debris accumulation. The floor corner guard has an elongated wall portion having sufficient vertical dimensions to extend above conventional baseboard, molding, and similar architectural details. A sloping base extends from the wall portion, downwardly and forwardly at an angle of between 25 and 75 degrees in relation to a vertical axis of the wall member. The wall portion has an upper edge and the base has a tapered forward edge to facilitate sealing engagement of the wall portion and the base with the walls and the floor, respectively. Some embodiments provide for a support brace extending outwardly from the wall portion opposite the base; the support brace is designed to fit under the baseboards, moldings and the like. During cleaning, the curved protector allows for easy removal of debris.
Cove base support
A cove base support is positioned between a wall and a cove base and includes a vertical support portion, an angled support portion, and a toe support portion. The angled support portion is positioned at the bottom of the vertical support portion and provides a transition to the toe support portion. The toe support portion extends downwards and away from the wall and provides support to a toe of the cove base. At least one of the vertical support portion and the toe support portion defines a plurality of apertures through which adhesive is placed to attach the cove base support to the wall through the apertures.
