Device for fastening a cover strip

Abstract: An apparatus is described for fastening a cover strip (1) with a support arranged in the connection gap between a floor covering (5) and a wall (7), which support comprises a floor leg (4) grasping beneath the floor covering (5) and a wall leg (8) comprising a clamping receiver (9) for the cover strip (1), which clamping receiver is pressurized with the spring force of at least one spring element (19) supported on the face side of the floor covering (5). In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the support is composed of a floor part (2) with the floor leg (4) and a support part (3) comprising the wall leg (8), forming a stop (13) overlapping the floor covering (5) and engaging in a stop-limited way into a slide-in guide means (6) of the floor part (2) extending transversally to the floor covering.
