Description
- Applicant claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 of German Application No. 20 2013 100 142.2 filed Jan. 11, 2013, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a profile system comprising an elongate profile for use with structures having a tiled base, such as for example a tiled wall, a tiled floor or the like.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Profiles which are designed for use in structures having a tiled base are known in the prior art in a wide variety of configurations. Their shape is normally adapted to a specific application, such as for example for finishing the outer edges of tile coverings, for creating a smooth cross-over from a tiled surface to an adjacent different floor covering, for example in the form of a carpet, for the smooth connection of floor coverings with different heights, for producing a decorative gap configuration, for providing a decorative strip or the like.
- Proceeding from this prior art it is an object of the present invention to provide a profile system of the type specified at the start having an elongate profile which is designed such that it achieves a wide variety of objectives in association with further profile system components and accordingly can be used universally.
- In order to achieve this object the present invention provides a profile system of the type specified at the start that comprises at least one elongate profile that has a base arm, two side arms of the same length projecting from the free ends of the base arm and arranged lying opposite one another, and two terminating arms which project from the free ends of the side arms and are aligned with one another, the side arms being arranged a distance apart from one another and the distance being at least 10 mm. This type of profile forms the base component of the profile system according to the invention and can achieve a wide variety of objectives in association with further profile system components according to the invention, and this is why the profile system according to the invention can be used very universally.
- The profile is preferably an extruded profile having a cross-section that remains the same over its entire length. Extruded profiles are advantageous in that they can be produced easily and inexpensively.
- The profile is preferably produced from aluminum or stainless steel. Aluminum and stainless steel have on the one hand a very attractive appearance. On the other hand, these materials are resistant to corrosion, and this makes it possible to also use the profile system according to the invention in wet rooms and in outside areas.
- Preferably an end section respectively adjoins the terminating arms, the end sections being inclined inwards towards the base arm. End sections formed in this way serve first and foremost to securely connect the profile to further profile system components, as will be described in more detail below.
- According to one configuration of the present invention the profile system has at least one fabric or fleece that is fastened or can be fastened to the outside and/or to the inside of the base arm and in particular is formed like a strip. This fabric or fleece serves to form an adhesive base for an adhesive in order to connect the profile adhesively to a base or to a further profile system components.
- According to a further configuration of the present invention the profile system has at least one retaining bar which can be fastened to a base and is designed for releaseably holding the profile.
- The retaining bar is preferably produced from plastic, in particular as an extruded profile made in one part. It is an advantage of plastic that it is inexpensive. Moreover, the retaining bar can be made to be at least partly flexible, and this is particularly advantageous in order to produce an easily manageable snap-on connection.
- An adhesive strip, a fleece producing an adhesive base for an adhesive or a fabric is preferably disposed on the back of the retaining bar in order to fix the retaining bar to a base self-adhesively or using an adhesive.
- According to one configuration of the present invention there are projecting from the front side of the retaining bar fastening protrusions which are made such that in the correct state they engage behind the terminating arms and/or behind the end sections of the profile such as to produce a manually releaseable snap-on connection. Accordingly, the profile can easily be clipped onto the fastening protrusions of the retaining bar.
- Advantageously, there is formed on the front side of the retaining bar a cable duct which, in the correctly arranged state, is covered by the profile. Accordingly, the retaining profile serves not only to fasten the profile to a base, but can moreover also be used to receive cables or the like.
- Preferably, a cover element is provided for closing the cable duct, said cover element in particular being made in one part with the retaining bar. Accordingly, cables stowed in the cable duct can not slide out of the cable duct when the cover element is closed.
- According to a further configuration of the present invention the profile system has at least one illuminant fastened or that can be fastened in the profile and at least one elongate diffusion disc cover that is fastened or can be fastened releaseably between the terminating arms and/or the end sections of the profile. Accordingly, the profile system can be used as an illumination system.
- The diffusion disc cover preferably has on its inside retaining protrusions which are made such that, in the correctly arranged state, they engage behind the terminating arms and/or behind the end sections of the profile such as to produce a manually releaseable snap-on connection. By virtue of this design the diffusion disc cover can easily be clipped onto the profile.
- The illuminant is preferably elongate in form, in particular in the form of a strip or a chain with a plurality of LEDs arranged over the latter.
- According to a further configuration of the present invention the profile system has at least one end cap for closing a face side of the profile. This end cap is used when a face side of the profile is arranged such that it can be viewed from the side by an observer.
- According to yet another configuration of the present invention the profile system has an elongate sealing lip element that is made such that, in the correctly arranged state, it can be disposed in a gap between the profile and a tile covering adjoining the profile at the side in order to seal the gap. This type of sealing lip element is advantageous when the profile system according to the invention is used to form an inside corner arrangement.
- The sealing lip preferably has on at least one side an adhesive strip for securing the sealing lip. Accordingly, the sealing lip can be fitted without any problem.
- Further features and advantages of the present invention, including examples of possible uses, will become clear from the following description of a profile system according to one configuration of the present invention with reference to the attached drawings. These show as follows:
