A joint-masking device (10) for joints in wall or floor coverings consists of a base profile (12) with a proud ball head (22) and a masking profile strip (14) with a socket pointing downwards which is formed from two coaxial walls (34, 36) curved into a circular cylinder.

A joint-masking device (10) for joints in wall or floor coverings consists of a base profile (12) with a proud ball head (22) and a masking profile strip (14) with a socket pointing downwards which is formed from two coaxial walls (34, 36) curved into a circular cylinder. The walls (34, 36) extend around the ball head (22) by more than 180°, so that the two strips (12, 14) can lockingly engage. The masking profile strip (14) can be pivoted to a limited degree, so that inclined positions are possible.

Joint-masking device with a base profile strip (12) having at least one horizontal fixing limb (18) and at least one vertical mounting stem (20), and with a masking profile strip (14) having at least one horizontal masking limb (28, 30) and a supporting limb (32) extending downwardly from the masking limb said masking profile strip being connected to the base profile strip (12) by a positive interlocking fit of the supporting limb (32) on the mounting stem (20), the connection between the mounting stem and supporting limb (20, 32) which effects the positive interlocking fit being designed as a locking ball head and socket joint (16) having an articulation axis running in a longitudinal direction of the strip for mounting the masking profile strip (14) on the base profile strip (12) in various pivoted positions, characterized in that the ball head (22), on a free end of the mounting stem (20), has a circular cylindrical outer surface interrupted by a longitudinal groove (26), said outer surface having a circumferential angle of more than 180°and being disposed coaxially to said articulation axis and extending on both sides of a plane containing said articulation axis and lying parallel to the fixing limb (18); that the supporting limb (32) has two thin walls (34, 36) each wall having an end and an inner surface, the walls being curved to form a mirror image of one another, with a circumferential gap (38) formed between the ends of the walls, the gap having a width which is smaller than the diameter of the ball head (22) by an amount lying within the range of the elastic spreading of the walls (34, 36); and that the inner surfaces of the curved walls (34, 36) and an intermediate area connecting the inner surfaces form a continuous circular cylindrical surface having a circumferential angle of more than 180°, a curved supporting area for the masking profile strip (14) being formed between the ball head (22) and the socket (32), said supporting area being interrupted by the longitudinal groove (26) and extending about at least half the circumference of the ball head (22), and the size of the supporting area is the same in the various pivoted positions of the masking profile strip (14).
