Abstract
The invention provides a height-adjustable bridging device for joints between floor coverings. The bridging device includes an upper element and a base element. The upper element includes a generally perpendicular retaining bar. The retaining bar includes a holding device. The base element also includes retaining bars which are structured to cooperate with the upper element retaining bar holding device. A support device, which includes another upper element retaining bar and a force uptake piece, such as a base element bar, is disposed on the upper element and the base element respectively. The support device aids in preventing the upper element from tipping.
Claims18
A height-adjustable bridging device (1) for joints between floor coverings, said bridging device consisting of an upper element (2) and a base element (3), said upper element (2) having at least one upper retaining bar (4) which is provided with a holding device said holding device configured on said retaining bar bilaterally, and said base element having two upwardly projecting retaining bars (6, 6′) with holding devices that complement the upper element retaining bar holding device, said base element retaining bars structured to embrace said upper element retaining bar (4) bilaterally on said upper element retaining bar holding device;
- and a support device (8) with a support bar (9) which prevents tipping between upper element (2) and base element (3), the support bar (9) operates jointly with a force uptake piece (10) extending upwardly from said base placed at an interval from retaining bars (6, 6′) on base element (3).
