Extruded molding trim for vehicles, appliances and the like

摘要

An extruded molding trim for vehicles, appliances and the like, which has a one piece integral construction including a longitudinally extending strip-like upper portion and longitudinally spaced apart leg portions extending perpendicularly downwardly therefrom either in a single or a double row, the portions having outwardly extending tabs disposed on opposite sides or on only one side thereof for attachment to a part of a vehicle, appliance and the like, the molding trim being formed from an extruded plastic strip. The upper portion and the leg portions are fabricated from either a rigid or a resilient flexible plastic material, with the tabs being fabricated from either a rigid or a resilient deformable or flexible plastic material. The tabs are pointed or elongated fingers, directed upwardly towards the upper portion, or each of the tabs can include adjacent outwardly and inwardly inclined outer surfaces to provide a point extending transversely outwardly from each leg portion, where each leg portion may include numerous tabs, aligned pairs of associated tabs, or staggered tabs. The upper portion can encapsulate a metallic strip therein, can be provided with longitudinally extending parallel grooves in an upper surface thereof, or can be provided with at least one downwardly extending longitudinal side flange preferably having a metallic strip disposed around the side flange, and a protective transparent plastic strip disposed over the metallic strip.
