Device for Fastening a Cover Strip

Abstract

An apparatus is described for fastening a cover strip ( 1 ) with a support arranged in the connection gap between a floor covering ( 5 ) and a wall ( 7 ), which support comprises a floor leg ( 4 ) grasping beneath the floor covering ( 5 ) and a wall leg ( 8 ) comprising a clamping receiver ( 9 ) for the cover strip ( 1 ), which clamping receiver is pressurized with the spring force of at least one spring element ( 19 ) supported on the face side of the floor covering ( 5 ). In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the support is composed of a floor part ( 2 ) with the floor leg ( 4 ) and a support part ( 3 ) comprising the wall leg ( 8 ), forming a stop ( 13 ) overlapping the floor covering ( 5 ) and engaging in a stop-limited way into a slide-in guide means ( 6 ) of the floor part ( 2 ) extending transversally to the floor covering.

1 . An apparatus for fastening a cover strip with a support arranged in the connection gap between a floor covering and a wall, which support comprises a floor leg grasping beneath the floor covering and a wall leg comprising a clamping receiver for the cover strip, which clamping receiver is pressurized with the spring force of at least one spring element supported on the face side of the floor covering, wherein the support is composed of a floor part ( 2 ) with the floor leg ( 4 ) and a support part ( 3 ) comprising the wall leg ( 8 ), forming a stop ( 13 ) overlapping the floor covering ( 5 ) and engaging in a stop-limited way into a slide-in guide means ( 6 ) of the floor part ( 2 ) extending transversely to the floor covering.  
   
   
       2 . An apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the support part ( 3 ) forming the wall leg ( 8 ) engages with a least one slide-in bracket ( 15 ) into a guide groove ( 16 ) of the slide-in guide means ( 6 ) of the floor part ( 2 ).  
   
   
       3 . An apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein the stop ( 13 ) of the support part ( 3 ) with the wall leg ( 8 ) consists of a stop web ( 14 ) projecting from the wall leg ( 8 ) between two slide-in brackets ( 15 ) each engaging in a guide groove.  
   
   
       4 . An apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the support part ( 3 ) with the wall leg ( 8 ) comprises at least one leaf spring ( 20 ) as a spring element ( 19 ) which is bent out about an axis parallel to the floor.  
   
   
       5 . An apparatus according to  claim 3 , wherein the support part ( 3 ) with the wall leg ( 8 ) forms two leaf springs ( 2 )) at the side adjacent to the slide-in brackets ( 15 ).  
   
   
       6 . An apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the spring element ( 19 ) consists of at least one separate spring ( 27 ,  29 ) resting between the face side of the floor covering ( 5 ) and the floor part ( 2 ).  
   
   
       7 . An apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the spring consists of a conical helical spring ( 27 ).  
   
   
       8 . An apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the spring consists of a leaf spring ( 29 ) which can be preferably inserted into a support ( 30 ) of the floor part ( 2 ).  
   
   
       9 . An apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the wall leg ( 8 ) of the support part ( 3 ) forms a support web as a clamping receiver ( 9 ) for the cover strip ( 1 ), which support web projects upwardly and extends at a distance from the wall ( 7 ).  
   
   
       10 . An apparatus according to claims  9 , wherein the wall leg ( 8 ) rests on the wall ( 7 ) via the cover strip ( 1 ) at least in the region of the clamping receiver.  
   
   
       11 . An apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the floor leg ( 4 ) of the floor part ( 2 ) forms a spring which is effective according to height.  
   
   
       12 . An apparatus according to  claim 11 , wherein the spring of the floor leg ( 4 ) comprises a stop nose ( 21 ) for the floor covering ( 5 ) which can be sunk into the plane of the leg.
