Thermoformed plinth

Abstract

The invention relates to a baseboard comprising a foam body ( 1 ); and a coating ( 2 ) thermoformed in a material different than the body.

1 . A baseboard comprising:
 a foam body; and   a thermoformed coating made of a different material than the foam body.   
     
     
         2 . The baseboard according to  claim 1 , wherein an upper portion of the coating is domed and the curvature radius of the domed section is directed towards the foam body. 
     
     
         3 . The baseboard according to  claim 2 , wherein the height of the foam body is equal to or less than the height of a straight section of the coating and the rear of the domed section of the coating is devoid of foam. 
     
     
         4 . The baseboard according to  claim 3 , wherein the rear of the domed section of the coating defines a space for wires and cables to pass. 
     
     
         5 . The baseboard according to  claim 1 , wherein a face of the foam body opposite the coating is coated with an adhesive layer and a protector. 
     
     
         6 . The baseboard according to  claim 3 , wherein a face of the foam body opposite the coating is coated with an adhesive layer and a protector and wherein the curvature radius of the domed section of the coating is approximately equal to the sum of the thickness of the foam body and at least the thickness of the adhesive layer. 
     
     
         7 . The baseboard according to  claim 1 , wherein a lower end of the coating extends from the foam body. 
     
     
         8 . The baseboard according to  claim 1 , wherein the coating is made of a plastic thermoformable material. 
     
     
         9 . The baseboard according to  claim 1 , wherein the foam body is made of a material chosen from extruded, crosslinked, or cast films. 
     
     
         10 . The baseboard according to  claim 1 , wherein the body and the coating are chosen from materials that can be cut using a box cutter or a knife.
