Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
188 words
A dilation joint strip for sections of masonry defining a gap between the sections of masonry joined therewith and in which said sections of masonry have opposed recesses facing each other, said joint strip having a substantially flat intermediate portion and anchoring side wings integral therewith consisting of a solid material such as rubber, artificial rubber and other elastic deformable synthetic material, said anchoring wings being combined with further anchorage means for reliably anchoring said anchoring wings in the sections of masonry, said joint strip being provided at either side with a central strip of elastic cellular material extending in the longitudinal direction of said intermediate portion with opposite ends thereof in said opposed recesses and having a width greater than the width of the gap between said sections of masonry, said central strip covering said flat intermediate portion and also the end portions of the anchoring wings so that when said joint strip is in use, both end portions of said central strip are embedded in said recesses in said sections of masonry, said joint strip also including means for maintaining said central strips in place thereon.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
188 words
A dilation joint strip for sections of masonry defining a gap between the sections of masonry joined therewith and in which said sections of masonry have opposed recesses facing each other, said joint strip having a substantially flat intermediate portion and anchoring side wings integral therewith consisting of a solid material such as rubber, artificial rubber and other elastic deformable synthetic material, said anchoring wings being combined with further anchorage means for reliably anchoring said anchoring wings in the sections of masonry, said joint strip being provided at either side with a central strip of elastic cellular material extending in the longitudinal direction of said intermediate portion with opposite ends thereof in said opposed recesses and having a width greater than the width of the gap between said sections of masonry, said central strip covering said flat intermediate portion and also the end portions of the anchoring wings so that when said joint strip is in use, both end portions of said central strip are embedded in said recesses in said sections of masonry, said joint strip also including means for maintaining said central strips in place thereon.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
230 words
A dilation joint strip for sections of masonry defining a gap between the sections of masonry joined therewith and in which said sections of masonry have opposed recesses facing each other, said joint strip having a substantially flat intermediate portion and anchoring side wings integral therewith consisting of a solid material such as rubber, artificial rubber and other elastic deformable synthetic material, said anchoring wings being combined with further metal strip anchorage means for reliably anchoring wings in the sections of masonry, said joint strip being provided at either side with a central strip of elastic cellular material extending in the longitudinal direction of said intermediate portion with opposite ends thereof extending in said opposed recesses and having a width greater than the width of the gap between said sections of masonry, said central strip covering said flat intermediate portion and also the end portions of the anchoring wings so that when said joint strip is in use, both end portions of said central strip are embedded in said recesses in said sections of masonry, said joint strip also including means for maintaining said central strips in place thereon, said intermediate portion further including at either side thereof two ribs spaced apart from each other at a distance and extending in the longitudinal direction of said intermediate portion, the central strips of elastic cellular material being secured between said ribs.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
230 words
A dilation joint strip for sections of masonry defining a gap between the sections of masonry joined therewith and in which said sections of masonry have opposed recesses facing each other, said joint strip having a substantially flat intermediate portion and anchoring side wings integral therewith consisting of a solid material such as rubber, artificial rubber and other elastic deformable synthetic material, said anchoring wings being combined with further metal strip anchorage means for reliably anchoring wings in the sections of masonry, said joint strip being provided at either side with a central strip of elastic cellular material extending in the longitudinal direction of said intermediate portion with opposite ends thereof extending in said opposed recesses and having a width greater than the width of the gap between said sections of masonry, said central strip covering said flat intermediate portion and also the end portions of the anchoring wings so that when said joint strip is in use, both end portions of said central strip are embedded in said recesses in said sections of masonry, said joint strip also including means for maintaining said central strips in place thereon, said intermediate portion further including at either side thereof two ribs spaced apart from each other at a distance and extending in the longitudinal direction of said intermediate portion, the central strips of elastic cellular material being secured between said ribs.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
54 words
A dilation joint strip according to claim 2, characterized in that the ribs are in the shape of a substantially right-angled triangle with a leg of each of said ribs, perpendicular to the corresponding face of the joint strip, abutting against said corresponding side face of the central strips consisting of elastic cellular material.
