Abstract:
1. A corner guard apparatus for protecting wall junctions adjacent uneven support surfaces such as a stair and floor surface, comprising; a first leg member having a first planar surface extending between a first distal edge opposite a first proximal edge; a first supporting edge extending between said first proximal edge and said first distal edge; a second leg having a second planar surface extending between a second distal edge and a second proximal edge; a second supporting edge extending between said second proximal edge and said second distal edge; a junction of said first planar surface in a traverse angle relative to said second planar surface and with said first proximal edge positioned proximate to said second proximal edge; means for translational engagement of said first leg member to said corner guard; said first planar surface supportable in an upright position with said first planar surface parallel to an adjacent first wall surface, by said first supporting edge positioned on or adjacent to a first support surface; said second planar surface supportable in an upright position with said second planar surface parallel to an adjacent second wall surface, by said second supporting edge positioned on a second support surface; said corner guard having an as-used position with said first planar surface and said second planar surface both in respective said upright positions; and whereby an intersection of an area of said first wall surface extending above said first support surface to an area of said second wall surface extending above said second support surface positioned at an elevation higher than said first support surface, is protected from impact and abrasions thereto, by said corner guard in said as-used position, and a translation of said first leg member provides an adjustment thereto for said corner guard, to accommodate differing said elevations of said second support surface.
