Abstract

Piece for step formation. It consists of a body or tile (1) that is arranged adjacent to the vertical surface existing in the corresponding step, presenting a geometry such that its upper and lower edges (2, 7) connect without continuity solution and horizontally with the edges of the tiles, pavement or similar (5, 4) corresponding respectively to the upper horizontal and lower horizontal surfaces of said step, in proximity to the edges thereof.

Description

Piece for step formation.

Object of the invention

The present invention, as expressed in The statement of this specification refers to a piece for step formation whose purpose is to provide a piece of simple application, achievable through the processes with which conventional tiles are made, and with optimal functionalities such as preventing dirt retention in the step angle, and contribute to position distinction from the edge of the step; also presenting possibilities of Excellent ornamentation.

Background of the invention

Some elements for training are known of steps such as those of utility models numbers 9401735 and 9901546. These known elements refer to essentially to pieces that cover the edge of the convex zone of the step, determining a rounding and embellishment of the same.

However, these elements known for formation of steps present drawbacks related to their complexity of arrangement in the step, and to which they do not act on the edge of the concavity of the step.

Description of the invention

To achieve the objectives and avoid drawbacks indicated above, the invention consists in a piece for step formation that can be performed by processes analogous to those of tile manufacturing conventional.

Novelly, according to the invention, said piece it consists of a body or tile that is arranged adjacent to the vertical surface existing in the corresponding step, presenting a geometry such that its upper and lower edges connect without continuity solution and horizontally with edges of the tiles, pavement or similar respectively to the upper horizontal and horizontal surfaces lower of said step, near the edges of the same.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, said geometry of said body or piece consists of a shot superior curved-convex and of remarkable amplitude whose end flush with the corresponding upper horizontal tile of the step forming an upper joint; as well as in a auction lower curved-concave that extends in a small horizontal section whose end flush with the corresponding lower horizontal step tile forming a joint lower, so that this small section displaces this joint lower slightly away from the corresponding edge of the step; being also defined a frontis between the auction upper and lower end of the piece.

The aforementioned upper edge or finish may present a special decoration different from the rest of the piece that facilitates the distinction of the location of the corresponding step.

In addition, the part of the invention is susceptible to be complemented with one or more units of a lateral element that present the same profile as the piece but extended to two planes different verticals, so that said lateral element is incorporate as a corner in one or more extreme lateral areas of the corresponding step.

With this constitution, the piece of the invention It has the advantages of providing decoration and signage at the edge of the edge of the convex part of the step, rounding it to the extent desired, according to different realizations In addition, the edge corresponding to the concave part of the step is also rounded and the joint that normally located on this edge is slightly displaced, which determines that there is less accumulation of dirt in this edge of the concave part of the step, while facilitating its cleaning. All these advantages determine a very useful piece for the formation of steps, which is also very simple to apply and can be manufactured using the classic procedures of manufacture of conventional tiles.

Then, to facilitate a better understanding of this descriptive report and being an integral part of the same accompany some figures in which with character illustrative and not limiting the object of the invention.

Brief description of the figures

Figure 1.- Represents a profile view and sectioning of a step that includes a piece for forming steps performed according to the present invention.

Figure 2.- Represents a perspective view. of the piece referred to in the previous figure 1, also showing in explosion its location and its possibility of coupling to a lateral element provided for the lateral extremes of the corresponding step.

Description of an embodiment of the invention

Following is a description of a example of the invention, referring to numbering Adopted in the figures.

Thus, piece 1 for step formation of this embodiment consists of a kind of tile that is incorporated adjacent to the vertical surface of the corresponding step, as shown in figure 1.

Piece 1 has a top auction 2 curved-convex and flush with the horizontal tile  upper 5 step formation, forming the upper joint 9, as shown in figure 1. This top edge or top 2 It has a special decoration different from the rest of the piece to facilitate the distinction of the corresponding location step.

On the other hand, and also according to figure 1, the piece 1 has a bottom 7 curved-concave that extends in a small section horizontal 6. The free end of this horizontal section 6 makes up with the corresponding lower horizontal tile 4 of the step, forming a lower joint 8. With this, the small section 6 displaces the gasket 8 slightly away from the corresponding edge of the step, which will hinder the accumulation of dirt in that area, and also it will be easier to clean it.

Between the upper auction 2 and the lower auction 7 of piece 1 is a front 3 that can be smooth, with reliefs, with or without ornamentation, according to different finishes

Obviously, the piece could also be manufactured 1 without the horizontal section 6, so that the surface itself Front side 3 generate the bottom seal 8.

Piece 1 can be complemented with one or more units of the side element 10 shown in figure 2. This side element 10 has the same profile as piece 1 but extended to two different vertical planes, bringing the side element 10 is incorporated as a corner in the areas lateral ends of the step for greater beautification of these areas when desired and, logically, whenever the step is not limited laterally between vertical walls.
