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; and a terminating leg that protrudes from the fastening leg and that is bent backwards in a fold-like manner at an end thereof opposite the fastening leg; and a U-shaped plug-on profile configured to be plugged onto the terminating leg; 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 1, wherein the terminating leg has drain openings at a height of the web.

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

5. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein in a transition zone to the web the terminating leg is extended in a fold-like manner downwards towards a drip edge.

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

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

8. The apparatus according to claim 2, wherein, in a transition zone to the web, the terminating leg is extended in a fold-like manner downwards towards a drip edge.

7. The apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the web has drain openings.

8. The apparatus according to claim 3, wherein, in a transition zone to the web, the terminating leg is extended in a fold-like manner downwards towards a drip edge.

9. The apparatus according to claim 4, wherein, in a transition zone to the web, the terminating leg is extended in a fold-like manner downwards towards a drip edge.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

[0010] The drawing shows the subject matter of the invention for example and specifically in a schematic cross-section.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0011] 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.

[0012] 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.
