The following detailed description is, therefore, not to be taken in a limiting sense, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
-
FIG. 1 shows a cross-section, profile view of atrim system 100 according to one embodiment. In this example,trim system 100 is mounted to astructure 142 and applied around awindow 130. In other examples, the trim can be applied around a door.Trim system 100 includes abase member 110 and acover member 120. In this example, thebase member 110 andcover member 120 define a two-piece brickmold trim system for doors or windows. -
Base member 110 can be used as a flashing piece that can be installed directly over anailing fin 132 ofwindow 130.Base member 110 includes aback wall 112 and atop wall 114.Back wall 112 includes a planar surface that is mounted flush againststructure 142. Cantilevered fromback wall 112 is amounting section 116. -
Cover member 120 is snap-fit tobase member 110.Base member 110 andcover member 120 can be formed of vinyl, metal, or pultrusion, in some examples. By providing a snap-fit structure,system 100 allows for relatively easy installation. For example,base member 110 can be mounted to the structure using nails or adhesive, thencover member 120 is snapped into place over the base member. -
FIGS. 2 and 3 show further details ofbase member 110 andcover member 120, respectively.Base member 110 can include a constant cross-section profile, such as an approximate L-shape profile 201 defined by a long leg (wall 112) and a short leg (wall 114). At anend 202 of the short leg of the L-shape,base member 110 includes a mounting section 204.Top wall 114 can be very short or long depending on the design. In this example, mounting section 204 includes aprojecting lip 206 that extends from the top of the base member perpendicular towall 114. -
Cover member 120 includes a correspondingU-shaped mounting section 304 that is dimensioned to matingly fit aroundlip 206.Cover member 120 can include aconstant cross-section profile 301 and can include a pultruded profile, for example. Thecover member 120 can be formed with aesthetic features such ascurls 314,ridges 316, grooves, etc, exposed on the outer, exposed surface of the cover member. Thecover member 120 can be virtually any color or shape. Thecover member 120 is adapted to engage in a snap-fit frictional engagement withbase member 110. Snap-fit mounting means that thecover member 120 is held in place through the use of force via the flexing ofwall 114,wall 312, aprojection 208, and/orwall 310 and the subsequent holding action of anupper ridge 210 ofprojection 208 and alip 206 ofwall 114. -

Accordingly, the trim system is easy to install because it allows easy access for nailing fin accessibility. - Referring again to
FIG. 1 , to mounttrim system 100 around a door or window,base member 110 is attached to either the sheathing ofstructure 142 or directly to the frame of the structure. Ifbase member 110 is made of metal, slots can be provided in the base member and the base member can be loosely hung on nails attached to the structure and extending through the slots. If thebase member 110 is made of a pultrusion, the base member can be directly mounted to the frame of the structure.Cover 120 is then snap-fit to thebase member 110. To snap-fit the cover member, U-shapedmounting section 304 is fit tolip 206. Then the cover is swung toward the base member untilcavity 308 engagesridge 210. As noted above, the force via the flexing ofwall 114,wall 312,projection 208, and/orwall 310 and the subsequent holding action ofupper ridge 210 andlip 206 holds the cover member in place. - Before or after the trim system is installed, siding can then be added to the structure. One embodiment uses a pultruded siding system such as disclosed in co-pending U.S. application Ser. No. 11/032,315, filed Jan. 10, 2005, which is incorporated herein by reference.

FIG. 4 shows another example of acover member 420, in accordance with one embodiment.Cover member 420 includes mountingsection 304 and mountingsection 306, similar to covermember 120. The profile shape ofcover member 420 is different thancover member 120 and includes aesthetic features, such asgrooves 422, for example. Other embodiment can provide virtually any profile having aesthetic features as desired. - As noted above, some embodiments utilize pultrusion for the
trim system 100. This is advantageous since both vinyl and long member metal products need to be slotted when attached to the sheathing of a home because of their high coefficient of thermal expansion. They have to be carefully nailed in the slots in a manner that allows horizontal movement of the siding as the temperature changes. Warping due to this large CTE is one of the chief drawbacks to these types of siding. - However, if pultruded,
base member 110 can be mounted directly to the structural frame or the window roughing. This can eliminate the need for the sheathing of typical construction. Moreover, if pultruded,trim members -
Members Members - Moreover, since the pultruded members have a relatively high insulative property, they help the insulating value of a structure wall and are less likely to be condensation points for moisture.
- In some embodiments, base and cover
member - Reinforcing fibers used in the example pultrusions can be glass, carbon fiber, kevlar, and other organic and inorganic filaments and fibers. Reinforcement fibers can take the form of filament and strand bundles, called rovings. They also take the form of yarns, texturized yarns, chopped strand mats, continuous strand mats, knitted mats, woven mats, surfacing veils, and many hybrid combinations of rovings, yarns, mats, and veils.

- In some embodiments, the
base member 110 can be incorporated into the window frame itself. Accordingly, the window would have a built-in flashing. In other words, theflashing piece 110 can replace the nailing fin of the window. In such an example, after the window is installed, only covermember 120 needs to be snap-fit around the window to apply trim to the window. - In some embodiments, a gasket can be located in the joints of the trim system. For example, referring to
FIGS. 1-3 a gasket material can be located betweensection 304 and 204, and a gasket material can be located betweensection 308 andsection 210. - The above description is intended to be illustrative, and not restrictive. Many other embodiments will be apparent to those of skill in the art upon reviewing the above description.
