Abstract:
A floor strip system for leveling the transition between two abutting floor coverings, said floor strip system comprising a bottom part which is adapted to be placed on a floor below the abutting edges of the two floor coverings and which is comprised of two members, wherein said floor strip system further comprises a top part which is secured on top of the bottom part and is provided with oppositely inclined lower edges adapted to project over portions of their respective abutting floor coverings, wherein each member of the bottom part comprises a top side for facing and said top side comprises a substantially plane first inclined surface having a relatively small inclination relative to and away from a substantially planar bottom side for abutting the floor, each said first inclined surface inclining towards a transition area between the two members, said top side of each bottom member also comprises a second inclined surface adjacent to an edge of the transition area between said members, each said second inclined surface being of a relatively considerable inclination relative to and away from the planar bottom side and the transition area, and the top part is provided with a relatively planar top side and its bottom surface is shaped essentially complementarily relative to the area between the second inclined surface on each member of the bottom part, whereby the bottom part is positioned below the floor covering while the top part is simultaneously adapted to be received in the transition area in such a manner that the floor coverings can be arranged in a sandwich-like manner between the two parts.
