Device for terminating a bottom section having a slab or stone cladding

Abstract

An apparatus is described for terminating a floor section (2) having a slab or stone paving (3) comprising a fastening leg (1) running parallel to the floor and a terminating leg (6) which protrudes from this fastening leg (1) and which is bent backwards in a fold-like manner at its end (9) opposite the fastening leg (1) and comprising a U-shaped plug-on profile (10) which can be plugged onto this terminating leg (6). In order to enable fairly large quantities of water to flow off easily, it is proposed that a web (7) which slopes down from the fastening leg (1) and forms a channel jointly with the terminating leg (6) is arranged between the fastening leg (1) and the terminating leg (6).

Claims

1. Apparatus for terminating a floor section having a slab or stone paving, said apparatus comprising: a fastening leg running parallel to the floor section; and a terminating leg that protrudes from the fastening leg and that is bent backwards so as to form a fold structure at an upper end thereof opposite the fastening leg; and a U-shaped plug-on profile configured to be plugged onto the terminating leg over said fold structure; wherein a web that slopes down from the fastening leg and forms a channel jointly with the terminating leg is arranged between the fastening leg and the terminating leg.

2. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the plug-on profile has at least one leg provided with fastening openings.

3. The apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the terminating leg has drain openings at a height of the web.

4. The apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the web has drain openings.

5. The apparatus according to claim 2, wherein, in a transition zone to the web, the terminating leg has a second fold structure extending downwards towards a drip edge.

6. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the terminating leg has drain openings at a height of the web.

7. The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the web has drain openings.

8. The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein, in a transition zone to the web, the terminating leg has a second fold structure extending downwards towards a drip edge.

9. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the web has drain openings.

10. The apparatus according to claim 9, wherein, in a transition zone to the web, the terminating leg has a second fold structure extending downwards towards a drip edge.

11. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein in a transition zone to the web the terminating leg has a second fold structure extending downwards towards a drip edge.

12. An apparatus for terminating a floor section having a slab or stone paving, said apparatus comprising: a fastening leg running parallel to the floor section; a web that slopes downwards and away from the fastening leg; a terminating leg that is connected with the web and extends upward from a lower portion thereof; said terminating leg having an upward end wherein the terminating leg is bent so as to have two portions extending adjacent each other in a fold structure; and a U-shaped plug-on profile plugged onto the upper end of the terminating leg over said fold structure; wherein the web and the terminating leg define a channel therebetween.

13. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the U-shaped plug-on profile has two legs, each on a respective side of said upper portion, and at least one of said legs has fastening openings therein providing access to the upper portion therethrough.

14. The apparatus according to claim 13, wherein the terminating leg has a second fold structure adjacent and extending downwards from the web, said fold structure providing a drip edge below said web.

15. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the terminating leg has drain openings at a height of the web allowing fluid in the channel to pas therethrough.

16. The apparatus according to claim 15, wherein the terminating leg has a second fold structure adjacent and extending downwards from the web, said fold structure providing a drip edge below said web.

17. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the web has drain openings therein allowing fluid in the channel to pas therethrough.

18. The apparatus according to claim 17, wherein the terminating leg has a second fold structure adjacent and extending downwards from the web, said fold structure providing a drip edge below said web.

19. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the terminating leg has a second fold structure adjacent and extending downwards from the web, said fold structure providing a drip edge below said web.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

(1) The drawing shows the subject matter of the invention for example and specifically in a schematic cross-section.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

(2) The apparatus according to the invention comprises a fastening leg 1 which runs between a base section 2 and a slab or stone paving 3 and is embedded for example in a bed 4 for the slab or stone paving 3. In order to allow a better connection between the bed 4 and the fastening leg 1, the fastening leg 1 can have openings 5. A terminating leg 6 projects from this fastening leg 1 which is connected to the fastening leg 1 via a web 7 forming a drip edge 8. The drip edge 8 is obtained from a fold formed from the web 7 and the terminating leg 6. The end 9 opposite the drip edge 8 is bent back in a fold-like manner. A U-shaped plug-on profile 10 is formed on the terminating leg 6 which has a longer leg 11 and a shorter leg 12. For fastening the plug-on profile 10 on the terminating leg 6 the plug-on profile 10 can be provided with fastening openings 13.

(3) In order to be able to collect and lead off water flowing from the slab or stone paving 3, the web 7 and the part of the terminating leg 6 adjoining the web 7 form a channel for the draining water. For this channel drain openings 14 are provided in the web 7 through which the water collected in the channel can flow off outwards and via the drip edge 8. These drain openings 14 are rectangular through openings in the web 7 which are distributed over its length and which end with their lower edge with the channel formed from the web 7 and the terminating leg 6. Naturally as explained above, other drain openings can also be provided.
