Abstract (en)
[origin: US4829731A] A device is disclosed for forming a connecting transition between two perpendicularly adjoining surfaces, of which at least one surface is provided with a rigid covering, in particular ceramic tile. The device allows for compensation of the varying stresses occurring in the surfaces bounding the joint combined with adequate sealing of the area of transition. The device is intended to find application in particular as a connecting transition between the edge of a bathtub and the adjoining wall and consists of a single-piece plastic angular profile. A sealing strip with a softened sealing lip is molded onto a leg of the angular profile which is formed of hardened material so as to extend the leg. The sealing lip has an adhesive profile arranged on its outer side in the lengthwise direction of the angular profile. By virtue of its elasticity, the molded sealing lip of the single-piece profile is biased against the surface to be sealed. Because the sealing lip is kept connected to such surface by an adhesive connection, it always acts against such surface in a sealing manner.
