Abstract

A profile for terraces and balconies includes a substantially flat wing for anchoring the profile to the floor of the terraces, a front portion for protection of the external edge of the flooring which protrudes outward with respect thereto, and a first drip lip constituted by a contoured element which extends downward. The first drip lip has, at the lower end, at least one first protrusion and at least one second protrusion, lower than the first, both protruding downward and outward with respect to the front portion. The profile also includes a second drip lip, which is substantially parallel to the first drip lip, extends downward from the wing and includes a third protrusion which protrudes downward and toward the first drip lip.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A profile for terraces and balconies, which comprises:
 a substantially flat wing for anchoring said profile to a floor of said terraces,   a front portion for protection of an external edge of a flooring which protrudes outward with respect thereto,   a first drip lip constituted by a contoured element which extends downward and comprises, at a lower end, at least one first protrusion and at least one second protrusion, lower than the first, both protruding downward and outward with respect to said front portion, and   a second drip lip, which is substantially parallel to said first drip lip, extends downward from said wing and comprises a third protrusion which protrudes downward and toward said first drip lip.   
     
     
         2 . The profile according to  claim 1 , wherein said second drip lip is constituted by a contoured element and has, starting from said flat wing:
 a first portion, adapted to be parallel to a terrace, and   a second portion, with a direction of extension that is at least partially directed toward said first drip lip.   
     
     
         3 . The profile according to  claim 1 , wherein said first drip lip has an extension downward from said front portion that coincides with a region of the latter. 
     
     
         4 . The profile according to  claim 1 , wherein said second protrusion protrudes further outward than said first protrusion. 
     
     
         5 . The profile according to  claim 1 , wherein said flat wing has:
 a first openings,   and/or holes,   and/or a plurality of longitudinal incisions at least in some regions.   
     
     
         6 . The profile according to  claim 1 , wherein said second protrusion and/or said third protrusion have an inclination with respect to a horizontal plane that is comprised between 20° and 65°. 
     
     
         7 . The profile according to  claim 1 , wherein said first drip lip has a larger extension than said second drip lip. 
     
     
         8 . The profile according to  claim 1 , wherein said first drip lip also has, at the lower end, a fourth protrusion which protrudes downward and is adapted to protrude toward the edge of said terrace. 
     
     
         9 . The profile according to  claim 1 , wherein said front portion has a cross-section that is a T-shaped turned through 90° which comprises a central connection to said wing, which corresponds to a core of said T-shape, and a substantially vertical element, which corresponds to a wing of said T-shape and which in turn comprises:
 an upper portion, and 
 a lower portion, which coincides with said first drip lip. 
 
     
     
         10 . The profile according to  claim 9 , wherein a plurality of incisions are defined on an inner side of said upper portion. 
     
     
         11 . The profile according to  claim 9 , wherein said central connection is inclined downward with respect to a plane of arrangement of said wing and has two longitudinal rows of openings:
 a first row of second openings, which is proximate to said first drip lip,   a second row of third openings, which is parallel to the first row, said third openings being proximate to said second drip lip.
