Abstract

Eine Abdeckvorrichtung (1) für Bodenbelagsfugen umfaßt ein Halterungsprofil (2) und eine Abdeckleiste (3), wobei das über einen Stegteil (5) den Fugen (F) entlang am Untergrund (U) befestigbare Halterungsprofil (2) wenigstens einen vom Stegteil (5) hochragenden, mit der Abdeckleiste (3) klemmend zusammensteckbaren Schenkelteil (6) aufweist. Um die Abdeckvorrichtung auch bei einem bogenförmigen Fugenverlauf einwandfrei einsetzen zu können, ist eine aus biegeweichem Material bestehende und um steckrichtungsparallele Achsen biegsame Abdeckleiste (3) vorgesehen, der als Halterungsprofil (2) eine durch querverlaufende Einschnitte (8) in gegeneinander um steckrichtungsparallele Achsen (A) verschwenkbare Abschnitte (9) unterteilbare Profilschiene (4) zugehört.

Figure 00000001
A cover device (1) for floor covering joints comprises a mounting profile (2) and a cover strip (3), the mounting profile (2), which can be attached to the base (U) along the joints (F) via a web part (5), at least one of the web part (5 ) has a protruding leg part (6) which can be plugged together with the cover strip (3). In order to be able to use the cover device perfectly even in the case of an arcuate joint course, a cover strip (3) made of flexible material and flexible about axes parallel to the direction of insertion is provided, which as the support profile (2) has a cut through transverse cuts (8) in mutually parallel axes (A ) pivotable sections (9) subdivisible profile rail (4) listened.
