Modular curbs

Abstract

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.

1 . A device comprising a cross-sectional geometry comprising:
 a vertical engagement segment comprising a vertical surface configured to contact a wall at a height above a floor and without contacting the floor;   an angled segment connected to a top end of the vertical engagement segment;   a horizontal engagement segment comprising a horizontal surface configured to contact the floor at a distance from the wall and without contacting the wall; and   a central segment connected to a bottom of the angled segment and one end of the horizontal engagement segment;   wherein, when the vertical surface of the vertical engagement segment is placed in contact with the wall and the horizontal surface of the horizontal engagement segment is placed in contact with the floor, the angled segment extends down from the top end of the vertical segment and away from the wall, and a cavity is formed between the device, the floor, and the wall.   
     
     
         2 . (canceled) 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the central segment, the angled segment, the vertical engagement segment, and the horizontal engagement segment comprise a single piece of material. 
     
     
         4 . (canceled) 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the internal angle between the vertical engagement segment and the central segment is 60° or less. 
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein an internal angle between the horizontal engagement segment and the central segment is 90° or less.

         8 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the central segment comprises one or more bends or folds. 
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein one or more of the central segment, the angled segment, the vertical engagement segment, and the horizontal engagement segment comprise a locking segment that extends into the cavity formed between the device, the floor, and the wall. 
     
     
         10 . (canceled) 
     
     
         11 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the device is composed of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMW) or fiber reinforced plastic (FRP). 
     
     
         12 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the cross-sectional geometry extends the entire longitudinal length of the device. 
     
     
         13 . (canceled) 
     
     
         14 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the vertical engagement segment is 1 to 3 inches in length, the horizontal engagement segment is 1 to 3 inches in length, and the central segment is 5 to 15 inches in length. 
     
     
         15 . (canceled) 
     
     
         16 . A system comprising: the device of  claim 1 , a wall, and a floor; wherein the vertical engagement segment is in contact with the wall at a height above a floor and without contacting the floor; wherein the horizontal engagement segment is in contact with the floor at a distance from the wall and without contacting the wall. 
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 16 , wherein the vertical engagement segment and the horizontal engagement segment are adhered to the wall and the floor, respectively, by an adhesive or chemical weld. 
     
     
         18 . (canceled) 
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 16 , wherein the cavity formed between the device, the floor, and the wall is filled with a filler material. 
     
     
         20 . (canceled) 
     
     
         21 . The system of  claim 19 , wherein the cavity is filled along the entire longitudinal length of the device. 
     
     
         22 . The system of  claim 19 , further comprising one or more anchors attached to the floor or wall and extending into the filled cavity. 
     
     
         23 . (canceled) 
     
     
         24 . The system of  claim 16 , wherein the wall comprises or is covered with a panel comprising a polymer or polymer composite material. 
     
     
         25 . The system of  claim 24 , wherein the wall comprises or is covered with a panel comprising ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMW) or fiber reinforced plastic (FRP).
