Description
Patented Sept. 21 1948 UNITED S ATES A ENT-O Edward 0. Lorraine, ni i se v;
Application October 21, 194e, sma1-No; 1o4,75c
This invention relates to'ru'g carpet or matting d e An object of this inventionis to provide an edging means for anchoring'the edges of sneer covering which may extend to the walls or may terminate inwardly from the walls.
Another object of this invention is to provide an edging which includes a base adapted to be lain or placed on a floor, a clamping member adapted to overlie the base and clamp an edge of the floor covering onto the base, and correlated securing members carried by the base and the clamping member for holding the clamping member in clamping position.
A further object of this invention is to provide an edging of this kind which will grip the edges of the floor covering without piercing the covering.
A further object of this invention is to provide an edging of this kind which is of simple construction and can be formed from extruded material.
With the above and other objects in view, my invention consists in the arrangement, combination and details of construction disclosed in the drawings and specification, and then more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings,
Figure 1 is a perspective view, partly broken away and in section, of a floor covering edging constructed according to an embodiment of this invention,
Figure 2 is a perspective view, partly broken away and in section, of a modified form of this invention.
Referring to thedrawing, and first to Figure 1, the numeral l designates generally a base which is adapted to be laid or placed on the floor and is adapted to engage beneath the marginal edge of the fioor covering H. The floor covering ll may be a carpet, rug, matting, or other suitable covering and may extend substantially to the edges of the wall or may terminate inwardly from the edges of a wall. The base Ill is formed with a fiat bottom surface [3 and is also formed with an upwardly and outwardly inclined upper surface l2 having a plurality of longitudinal flutings l4 disposed in the upper surface 12 forming relatively sharp ridges [5 for clamping engagement with the lower surface of the covering H.
The base Ill constitutes a lower clamping jaw and an upper clamping jaw generally designated as I6 is adapted to engage over the upper side of the covering II. The upper jaw i6 includes an elongated body which is transversely curved at r 2 least on .theupper. side with lengthwise spaced grooves IS. The upper jaw l6: isformedin the lower, side thereof with longitudinalfiutings I9forming ridges 20 which are positioned between the ridges l5-of th lower jaw or base Ill.
The base 10 at its outer portion is formed with a pair of upstanding walls 2| and '22 which are provided with lengthwise ribs 23 on the inner sides thereoffor clamping engagement with a downturned tongue 24 carried by the outer edge of the upper jaw H3. The wall 22 is the outer wall of the keeper formed by the two walls 21 and 22, and a downwardly and outwardly inclined plate 25 formed with lengthwise grooves 26 extends from the upper edge of the keeper wall 22.
Referring now to Figure 2, there is disclosed a modified form of this invention wherein a base Illa is provided similar to the base Ill, and having keeper forming walls Ila and 22a extending from the outer edge thereof and disposed in upright position. A downwardly and outwardly inclined plate or edging 25a formed with lengthwise grooves 260. extends from the upper edge of the keeper wall 22a. An upper clamping jaw lid is adapted to overlie the upper side of the covering [I and is formed substantially identical with the jaw l6, except as to its outer locking tongue construction. The upper jaw 16a is adapted to be locked to the keeper 22a. by means -of a split tongue 21 formed with longitudinal ribs 28 on its outer sides for engagement with ribs 2321 carried by the inner sides of the keeper walls 21a and 22a.
The upper clamping jaw I6 is then placed over the top of the covering II and the locking tongue 24 is pushed downwardly between the ribbed jaws 2i and 22 so that the jaw l6 will be tightly held on the fioor covering and will tightly press this covering onto the lower jaw or base Ill. The ribs or ridges 20 of the upper jaw IE will press the material of the covering in the 'fiutlngs M of the base between the ridges l5 so that the floor covering will be tightly locked or clamped onto the assembled edging. This edging may be formed of metal, preferably extruded metal, so that it can be manufactured at relatively small cost and in view of the simple construction of the edging it can be easily and quickly applied to the fioor covering and when applied will firmly hold the floor covering against movement relative to the floor.
I do not mean to confine myself to the exact,
details of construction herein disclosed, but claim ll thereof and is formed.
all variations falling within the purview of the appended claims.
What I claim is:
1. A floor covering securing means and edging comprising an elongated base member adapted to be placed on a floor and to underlie an edge of the covering, said base constituting a lower clamping jaw, an upper clamping jaw, a pair of parallel keeper forming walls carried by on of said jaws, a, downwardly andoutwardly' inclined shield carried by one of said keeper forming walls, and a locking tongue engageable between the said walls for connecting the upper and lower clamping jaws.
2. A floor covering securing means, and edging comprising an elongated base member adapted to be placed on a floor and to; underlie; anedee of" the covering, said base constituting a lower clamping jaw, an upper clamping jaw, a pair of parallel keeper forming walls carried by one or said jaws, and a split locking tongue comprising two resilient spaced apart members carried bythe other law engageable between said walls,
