Claims. (01. 2049) This invention relates to edgings and particularly to that type of edging suitable for binding the edges of linoleum, cork, composition, or other covering material when positioned on floors or stairs.
The principal object of this'invention is the provision'of an edging having an attaching flange of substantially uniform thickness with a rib extending along its lower front side to support the front portion of the securing flange above its rear portion, thereby positioning the upper surface of said flange at an angle to the supporting surface.
,,- A further object is to provide an edging that is so constructed as to securely engage the surface on which it is positioned in such a manner as to preclude accidental movement thereon.
Other objects are economy of construction and adaptability for use on irregular surfaces. With these objects in view, as well as minor objects which will appear during the course of the detailed specification, reference will now be had to the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure l is a perspective View showing an edging embodying this invention in operative position on a stair tread.
Fig. 2 is a cross section of the edging shown in position on a stair tread.
Fig. 3 is an inverted perspective View of a section of the edging.
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the edging.
Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing a modified form of the edging in operative position on a floor, and,
5 Fig. 6 is an inverted perspective view of a section of the edging as shown in Fig. 5.
Like reference characters refer to similar parts in the several views and the numeral 8 designates an elongated member having a securing flange 10 and a binding flange 12. Securing. flange 10 is preferably made of substantially uniform thickness and is provided at its lower surface adjacent its outer edge with a rib 14, which serves to support the outer portion of the flange above its inner portion, thereby positioning the upper surface of said securing flange in a plane atan angle to the supporting surface, thus allowing the positioning of the floor covering without the shown in each of the figures, it is preferable that the outer edges of these ribs and the inner edge of the securing flange should be positionedv in a common plane whichis at an angle to the plane of the upper surface of the securing flange, thus making it possible for each of the ribs and the inner lower edge of the securing flange to simultaneously contact the supporting surface.
Holes '16, formed through securing flange 14, are adapted to receive fastening means, such as 35 screws 18, for securely fastening the edging to the surface of the floor, stair tread, etc.
The securing flange 10 is adapted to be normally placed in a horizontal position on the supporting surface, while the binding flange 12 is 7 disposed at an angle thereto, and, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, 3, and 4, extends on both sides thereof. The upper portion 20 of flange 12 extends above the upper surface of 10 a distance substantially the thickness of the floor covering to caused and is provided with a longitudinal groove 22 adjacent said securing flange, which serves to receive the frayed edges of the floor covering. The lower portion 24 of the binding flange 12 is preferably undercut in such a manner as to permit its lower edge to contact with the vertical edge of a stair tread 26, as shown'in Figs. 1 and 2. In all of the figures it will be noted that the upper portion 20 of the binding flange is gradually inclined downwardly from the juncture with the floor covering, thus presenting an easy approach thereto.
The modified form, as shown in Figs. 5 and 6, provides for an edging suitable for use on a floor 32 where it is impossible to use the depending portion of the binding flange and, as is clearly shown, the outer edge 28 is so constructed as to serve as a supporting rib and hugs the floor to form a neat and substantial finish. The in- 1 clined surface 30 serves as a gradual approach to the surface of the floor covering.
It is apparent that the edging thus described is adapted to rest on a plane surface with the inner edge of the securing flange and the projecting ribs contact therewith while the upper surface of the securing flange is inclined to the supporting surface, thereby eliminating the necessity of using theusual lining on the floor adjacent the edging to properly support the floor covering.
Furthermore, the ribs 14 are so constructed and positioned as to make a more secure contact with the supporting surface and to prevent accidental moving of the edging. Also, due to the fact that v only a small portion of the under surface of the 11c securing flange contacts with the floor, it is evident that this type of edging may be. successfully used on floors which are more or less rough.
I do not wish to limit this invention to the structure shown and described, since many modifications might be made without departing from the spirit of the appended claims.
What I claim as new and desire to protect by Letters Patent is:
1. As a new article of manufacture, an edging comprising an elongated member having a securing flange of uniform thickness; a binding flange disposed at an angle to said securing flange and a longitudinal sharpened rib formed on the under side of said securing flange adjacent said binding flange.
2. As a new article of manufacture, an edging comprising an elongated member having a securing flange of uniform thickness and a binding flange, and a plurality of sharpened ribs formed on the bottom side of said securing flange adjacent one edge thereof the outer edges of said ribs and the inner lower edge of said securing flange being in a common plane that is disposed at an angle to the plane of the upper surface of said securing flange.
3. An edging comprising an elongated member having a horizontally disposed secuning flange of uniform thickness and a vertically disposed binding flange, and a sharpened rib formed on the bottom side of said securing flange adjacent but spaced apart from one edge thereof.
4. An edging comprising an elongated member having a horizontally disposed securing flange of uniform thickness; a binding flange extending at an angle to and positioned at one edge of said securing flange; and a narrow rib formed on the under side of said securing flange beneath said binding flange.
5. An edging comprising an elongated member having a securing flange and a binding flange extending upwardly at one edge of said securing flange, and a downwardly sharpened rib formed on the under side of said securing flange adjacent said binding flange, whereby when said edging is positvioned on a plane surface the upper surface of said securing flange will be disposed at an angle'to said supporting surface.
