Patent ID: 8302453

Claim:
A device for pressing an item ( 13 ) around an end side or edge ( 17 ) of an object, the device comprising: a profile ( 1 ); a binding rail ( 2 ) mounted on an underside of the profile, the profile ( 1 ) and the binding rail ( 2 ) being movable upwardly and downwardly in relation to first and second stationary mechanical guides ( 5 , 8 ) which are mounted on each other, the first stationary mechanical guide ( 8 ) being placed in the profile ( 1 ) such that the first stationary mechanical guide ( 8 ) has a lower external side which faces a lower internal side of the profile ( 1 ) and an upper external side which faces an upper internal side of the profile ( 1 ), two spaces being created between the external sides of the guide ( 8 ) and the internal side of the profile ( 1 ), an upper space and a lower space, each of these spaces receiving at least one flexible element ( 10 , 11 ) that is filled and emptied with a fluid, a fixed base mounted to the second stationary mechanical guide ( 5 ), the fixed base ( 4 ) being parallel with and under the binding rail ( 2 ) such that filling the at least one flexible element located in the upper space moves the profile and binding rail upwardly, to form a gap which receives an item and an edge of the object therein, and filling the at least one flexible element in the lower space moves the profile and binding rail downwardly towards the fixed base so as to press the item and fix the item to the edge of the object.
