Claim 1
Independent Claim 226 words
A combination fascia and J-trim moulding comprising, firstly, a J-trim moulding in two pieces, a first piece and a second piece, each piece having a generally L-shaped profile and being made of a flexible material; each piece comprising a first branch and a second branch; the second branches being attachable one to the other by overlapping attaching means; the first branches projecting in the same direction relative to the second branches such that the said two pieces when attached define a U-shaped profile; the first branch of the first piece being provided with a longitudinally extending deep slot; the said second branch of the said first piece and said deep slot defining a longitudinally extending space; the top portion of the said second branch of the said second piece being adapted to be slid into said longitudinally extending space up to a limit locking position; comprising, secondly, a fascia moulding having a vertical portion and a horizontal portion wherein the free edge of said horizontal portion is provided with a downwardly extending flange; said flange being adapted to slide in said deep slot up to a final secured position; said second branches of said two pieces serving as joining branches, and said first branch of said first piece serving as an attaching branch and said first branch of said second piece serving as a covering branch.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 226 words
A combination fascia and J-trim moulding comprising, firstly, a J-trim moulding in two pieces, a first piece and a second piece, each piece having a generally L-shaped profile and being made of a flexible material; each piece comprising a first branch and a second branch; the second branches being attachable one to the other by overlapping attaching means; the first branches projecting in the same direction relative to the second branches such that the said two pieces when attached define a U-shaped profile; the first branch of the first piece being provided with a longitudinally extending deep slot; the said second branch of the said first piece and said deep slot defining a longitudinally extending space; the top portion of the said second branch of the said second piece being adapted to be slid into said longitudinally extending space up to a limit locking position; comprising, secondly, a fascia moulding having a vertical portion and a horizontal portion wherein the free edge of said horizontal portion is provided with a downwardly extending flange; said flange being adapted to slide in said deep slot up to a final secured position; said second branches of said two pieces serving as joining branches, and said first branch of said first piece serving as an attaching branch and said first branch of said second piece serving as a covering branch.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 71 words
