The field of the invention is comprised within the accessories and devices used in the work of finishing walls in the construction sector, being oriented to profiles that allow to cover together, protect and beautify the union of ceramic pieces and / or that give continuity to areas of union between horizontal and vertical walls, and more specifically to profiles that in addition to this function of finishing and protection allow 20 to house and protect LED luminaires.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Within the field of construction, as well as decoration, profiles 25 are known to finish vertical walls (walls) with horizontal walls (floors), to save expansion joints, to finish steps or to transition between different types of pavements and / or tiles, among other typologies. These profiles are known to the general public, and even any user can dispose of them in specialized stores. 30

As a general rule, the closing profiles are closed, and within the evolution and improvements that have been having over the last years, a functionality that has been intended to give these profiles the function of channeling for wiring and incorporate into its cabin interior of some lighting medium. 35

In this sense, it is known, for example, what is disclosed in document DE102016011767 where a closed profile is described, which is accessible frontally by a removable cover, and which internally has a plurality of trays that allow generating different rooms through which wiring passes, and which in turn can have a point or zone of 5 lighting. The priority function of these types of profiles is that of channeling and not that of closing between tiles. These profiles have a configuration with which they can only be located in the area of closing between wall and floor, and preferably serves to finish the baseboards or skirting boards.

 10

It is also known what is disclosed in document DE202013104473 where a solution similar to the previous one is described, that is, a closed profile that only allows the closing between the floor and the wall, since it needs to be supported on a horizontal surface, but that Because it has a quadrangular section, it can be installed in joints. This profile, like the previous one, has a removable front cover that gives access to a plurality of 15 longitudinal compartments that serve as a channeling, and that can house lighting points.

Additionally, the information disclosed in document EP2754776 is known where a profile system is described to delimit the lining of a plate, which are intended to be placed in vertical walls and which are configured by two parts, a base with a vertical arm that It allows to adhere to a vertical ceramic piece, and an upper cover that allows access to a cabin that serves as a pipe, and that additionally can have a luminaire. These profiles have the disadvantage that they do not allow a ceramic piece to be adhered superiorly, therefore, they serve as a shot of a vertical ceramic piece with a smooth facing, but it cannot be used as a shot between two adjacent ceramic pieces, nor as a shot a vertical wall with the roof.

Finally, what is disclosed in document DE102014110449 is highlighted, where a closed profile is defined to be installed in steps comprising an internal wiring that feeds a lighting point, and so that the wiring can access the internal area of the profile, on the back side of the profile that is in contact with the vertical wall there is a slot through which the cable enters. Once the profile has been installed and the cable has been inserted, the vertical wall and the floor

horizontal of the step, therefore the wiring is protected. These profiles can only be used in steps for maintenance reasons, since, if they are used in an area of closing between wall with the ceiling and / or floor, in case of requiring changing the light point it could not be accessed, in addition to that in if you want it to light up, the profile would be hidden between these walls. In any case, it could be used in joints in a vertical wall 5, but in that case, it could only be accessed frontally and the chances of breaking the adjacent ceramic pieces would be extremely high, therefore, it only has feasibility in the case of being installed in steps where it can be accessed both vertically and horizontally and the chances of breakage of adjacent ceramic pieces is much reduced. 10

Bearing in mind the known background in the state of the art, it can be seen that there are a number of technical problems both in that there is no known profile that serves for the lower end (floor - wall), intermediate end (wall - wall) ) and top finish (wall - ceiling) and that additionally serves for walls 15 covered by ceramic pieces. Additionally, all known profiles that house lighting are closed, since the luminaire is intended to be protected, but this has the technical problem of heat dissipation produced by the luminaire in the profile cabin, in addition to that, by having a cover, there is no optimal light output from the profile. Finally, the known profiles require complex installation mechanisms, 20 mainly if internally it comprises lighting, as is the case of the DE102014110449 profile intended to be installed in steps. Another problem with the lid is that it can also yellow outside and allows dirt to pass that can hardly be cleaned. One of the problems of the heat that is causes the LED to take off.

 25

In view of both the known background and the technical problems not solved by said solutions, the present invention describes a profile typology that serves to solve all these problems since it is (i) a single auction profile that allows it to be installed in the union between ceramic pieces in vertical and horizontal walls, and which allows (ii) the upper auction between said ceramic pieces and the ceiling, 30 (iii) the intermediate auction between vertical ceramic pieces, and (iv) a lower auction between ceramic pieces and soil; and where the profile allows (v) the placement of an LED luminaire inside, and where the profile configuration allows (vi) in turn to evacuate the heat produced by the luminaire. Additionally, since it is a unique profile and can be used for any type of auction (vertical, vertical-horizontal), the profile allows (vii) that the

Installation is simple and does not require complex means of commissioning and / or maintenance.

Therefore, taking into account all these previous aspects, it is considered that the present invention, which is described in detail below, presents a new type of auction profile that represents an improvement over the known profiles in this industrial sector. .

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

 10

The shot profile described in the present invention consists of a unique profile type that allows the top shot between ceramic pieces and the ceiling, an intermediate shot between ceramic pieces, and a bottom shot between ceramic pieces and the floor, both of which can be floor as the smooth ceiling or with any type of coating, and where the profile also allows the placement of an LED luminaire which is protected. Although the invention is preferably directed to the finish where ceramic pieces are used, it can be used in other types of cladding elements such as laminated plasterboard, stone or brick slabs, or any other type of cladding used in vertical walls even with different thicknesses of coating, not being limited to a single thickness as usually happens with this type of profiles. This profile also serves to protect the wall in its use as a skirting board.

The profile, which is placed longitudinally along the entire joint or end zone, has a U-shaped section rotated 90 °, that is, it is configured from a core whose ends split two perpendicular wings. These two wings are different from each other, since a wing has an inclined inner face and an outer face is flat and can have a groove that allows to secure the union with the wall where it is fixed, and can be considered as the base wing; and the opposite wing is flat with a perpendicular flange on the front end that protects the internal part of the profile where the LED strip is housed, as well as the edge of the lining it complements, covering possible imperfections and can be considered as the protection wing .

As previously mentioned, the main use of the profile is as a finish for ceramic pieces or laminated plasterboard, and additionally the profile allows the placement of a LED strip or luminaire. The LED luminaire is placed on the inner side of the protective wing, 35

being adjusted, hidden and protected between the soul and the front flange.

The profile has a configuration that allows its placement or location to be:

- with a top finish, that is, between a roof and a ceramic piece (wall), for which the external face of the base wing is placed in front of the ceiling, the soul is placed and protects the wall, the external face of the protection wing it is placed in front of the thickness of the ceramic piece;

- intermediate finish, that is, between two pieces of ceramic in a vertical wall (wall), for which the outer face of the base wing is placed against the thickness of one of the ceramic pieces, the soul is placed and protected the wall, the outer face of the protection wing is placed in front of the thickness of the adjacent piece of ceramic; or

- of lower end, that is, between ceramic piece (wall) and floor, for which the external face of the base wing is placed in front of the floor, the soul is placed and protects the wall, the external face of the protection wing is placed in front of the thickness of the ceramic piece 15.

That is to say, with a single profile configuration, and simply by turning the section, any need for closing between a vertical and a horizontal wall, or between two adjacent pieces of a vertically vertical can be covered. As for how it is placed, the fixing of the outer faces of the profile with the walls to be covered is done with glue cement or adhesives depending on the placement. It is usual to fill with cement glue and insert the profile in the area-joint of the auction until the front flange stops, which in turn has the advantage of allowing the profile to be placed with several thicknesses of tile or cladding element. enclosure. 25

Apart from the main function of being able to be used in a multi-purpose way interchangeably in upper / intermediate / lower auctions, the profile has the possibility of having a function of lighting element. As anticipated, the location of the LED strip is in the protection wing, being protected by the front flange. Due to the open configuration of the profile, this allows for an improvement in the evacuation of heat, and this in turn has the advantage that it is possible to dispense with heat diffusers on the LED strip, which are necessary in solutions of closed profile as described in the background section. In turn, since the front flange keeps the LED luminaire hidden, glare is avoided, generating indirect light naturally. Additionally, the 35

Open configuration avoids complex assemblies where additional parts are required that complicate assembly and make the price more expensive. Therefore, with the profile a lighting protection function is achieved, with an added function of simple decoration, since anyone with minimal notions can mount their own LED installation with any type of commercial kit and it is not necessary to hire a Professional electrician 5 for it.

Taking these aspects into account, the profile allows a versatile solution to be obtained and can be used as an intermediate listel-profile, as a skirting board and as a top auction; it allows to optimize the given stock with a single section / profile, these three market needs can be serviced, taking into account that currently in the market a particular differentiated solution must be chosen for any of these three options; it is a simple profile to clean, since the base wing that has the slight slope together with the open configuration of the assembly allows to facilitate the internal cleaning thereof; the soul or front edge protects the ceramic or laminated plaster with which it is installed and covers the irregular cut 15; it is adaptable to any type of ceramic piece or type of enclosure, for example laminated plasterboard, given that with a single measure it is used for several piece thicknesses, since it stops with the front part; It has the possibility of placing an LED strip without the need for an additional diffuser and where the open profile configuration facilitates heat evacuation; It allows quick and economical placement, as the profile is a single 20 piece without accessories or accessories to attach or assemble; and does not require technicians specialized in complex LED installations, so it is accessible to all types of users.

Finally, the profile is preferably of a metallic material, although it can be of any other resistant material that can be fixed to both the walls and the ceramic vertical elements or any other type of coating material.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

In Figures 1 and 2 it can be seen in detail the section of the profile object of the present invention has a U-shape rotated 90 ° with a soul (1) or vertical edge whose ends split two wings (2, 3) perpendicularly. As can be seen mainly in Fig. 1, there is a first wing, referred to as the base wing (2) that has an inclined inner face (20) and an outer face (21) that is flat. In one embodiment of the invention, a groove (22) is provided on the outer face (21) which has the function of improving the connection with the wall to be coated. There is also a second wing, referred to as a protection wing (3) that has its outer (31) and inner (30) faces, preferably 35

flat, and at its front end it has a front flange (4) that is perpendicular to said wing (3). This configuration makes the profile open and accessible from the outside, and among other advantages, it facilitates the cleaning of the internal faces of the profile.

As can be seen in Fig. 2, the profile is an element that allows a joint area between longitudinal and vertical walls to be topped 5 longitudinally, and which allows to protect and house an LED strip or luminaire (5) which offers advantages not Only space lighting but also allows decorative combinations. As can be seen, the LED luminaire (5) is located or fixed on the inner face (30) of the protection wing (3), such that the front flange (4) allows it to be visually hidden from the outside, 10 but at the same time, since the profile is open, it allows the luminosity to go outside without screens that reduce the intensity of the light, just as being an open profile it allows the heat to dissipate and not necessary accessory elements that solve this problem. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the LED strip or luminaire (5) is fitted between the core (1) and the front flange (4), so that it is not only hidden from the outside, but is protected against possible blows or any other external action.

In Figures 3 to 8 the main function of the present invention is observed, which is that the profile (P) has a configuration that simply by turning the section 90 °, any need for closing between a vertical and a horizontal wall can be met. , or between two adjacent pieces of a vertically vertical. Specifically, the profile allows to be located in:

- intermediate finish (Rm), which, as seen in Figs. 3 and 6, is between two ceramic pieces (7, 7 ') in a vertically vertical position, for which the outer face of the 25 base wing (2 ) is placed against the thickness of one of the ceramic pieces (7); the core (1) is placed and protects the wall (6), the outer face of the protective wing (3) is placed against the thickness of the adjacent piece of ceramic (7 '); and where a LED strip or luminaire (5) protected by the front flange (4) of the profile (P) can be housed;

- lower end (Ri), which as seen in Figs. 4 and 7, is between ceramic piece 30 (7) of the wall (6) and the floor (8), for which the outer face of the wing of base (2) is placed in front of the ground (8); the soul (1) is placed and protects the wall (6); the outer face of the protection wing (3) is placed in front of the thickness of the ceramic piece (7); and where a LED strip or luminaire (5) protected by the front flange (4) of the profile (P) can be housed; 35

- upper end (Rs), which as seen in Figs. 5 and 8, is between a roof (9) and a ceramic piece (7) of the wall for which the outer face of the base wing (2) is placed in front of the ceiling (9); the soul (1) is placed and protects the wall (6); the outer face of the protection wing (3) is placed in front of the thickness of the ceramic piece (7); and where a LED strip or luminaire (5) protected by the front flange 5 (4) of the profile (P) can be housed.

In any of these cases (Fig. 3-8), the fixing of the outer faces of the profile (P) with the walls (6, 7, 8, 9) to be covered is done with glue cement (10) or adhesives depending on the placement Preferably, it is filled with glue cement (10) and the 10 preferred mode of installation is that the profile (P) is inserted in the area where the front flange (4) stops in the ceramic piece (7) ), which, as previously advanced, has the advantage of allowing the profile (P) to be placed with tiles of different thicknesses.

 fifteen

Additionally, the soul (1) can have a fine groove in its entire surface to help the placement of the soul against the vertical wall, specifically for its placement and fixation with the glue cement (10).

Finally, in Fig. 9 it can be seen that the present invention allows, by means of a single profile, to cover the three possibilities of closing in a room, that is, the upper closing (Rs) between wall (6) and ceiling (9); the intermediate finish (Rm) between ceramic pieces or other types of wall coverings (6); and the lower end (Ri) between wall (6) and floor (8).
