Abstract

A sealing element for sealing a gap or joint between a support structure and a track is disclosed. The track includes a web and legs that extend vertically from the web. The sealing element includes a cover layer and an insulating strip disposed on the cover layer. The insulating strip includes a portion with a round, an oval, or a triangular cross-section.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A sealing element for sealing a gap or joint between a support structure and a track, wherein the track includes a web and legs that extend vertically from the web, comprising:
a cover layer; and an insulating strip disposed on the cover layer wherein the insulating strip includes a portion with a round, an oval, or a triangular cross-section.

2 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , wherein the cover layer is an intumescent material.

3 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , wherein the cover layer includes metal wires.

4 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating strip is an acoustical insulating material.

5 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating strip is an intumescent material.

6 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating strip contains an intumescent material and an acoustical insulating material.

7 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating strip includes a second portion and wherein a cross-section of the second portion is different from the cross-section of the portion.

8 . The sealing element according to claim 7 , wherein the cross-section of the second portion has a rectangular shape.

9 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , further comprising a second insulating strip disposed on the cover layer, wherein the second insulating strip includes a portion with a cross-section and wherein the cross-section of the portion of the second insulating strip is different from the cross-section of the portion of the insulating strip.

10 . The sealing element according to claim 9 , wherein the cross-section of the portion of the second insulating strip has a rectangular shape.

11 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating strip includes a second portion with a second cross-section and a third portion with a third cross-section.

12 . The sealing element according to claim 11 , wherein the cross-section of the portion and the third cross-section of the third portion have a same shape and wherein the second cross-section of the second portion has a different shape than the cross-section of the portion and the third cross-section of the third portion.

13 . The sealing element according to claim 12 , wherein the portion and the third portion are disposed at respective longitudinal ends of the cover layer and wherein the second portion is disposed between the portion and the third portion.

14 . The sealing element according to claim 13 , wherein the second cross-section of the second portion has a rectangular shape.

15 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a second insulating strip disposed on the cover layer with a second portion with a second cross-section; and a third insulation strip disposed on the cover layer with a third portion with a third cross-section.

16 . The sealing element according to claim 15 , wherein the cross-section of the portion and the third cross-section of the third portion have a same shape and wherein the second cross-section of the second portion has a different shape than the cross-section of the portion and the third cross-section of the third portion.

17 . The sealing element according to claim 16 , wherein the portion and the third portion are disposed at respective longitudinal ends of the cover layer and wherein the second portion is disposed between the portion and the third portion.

18 . The sealing element according to claim 17 , wherein the second cross-section of the second portion has a rectangular shape.

19 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating strip includes a second portion and wherein a cross-section of the second portion has a same shape as the cross-section of the portion.

20 . The sealing element according to claim 1 , further comprising an adhesive strip disposed on the cover layer, wherein a cross-section of the adhesive strip is different from the cross-section of the portion.

21 . The sealing element according to claim 20 , wherein the cross-section of the adhesive strip has a rectangular shape.

22 . A sealing element for sealing a gap or joint between a support structure and a track, wherein the track includes a web and legs that extend vertically from the web, comprising:
a cover layer; and an insulating strip disposed on the cover layer, wherein the insulating strip includes a portion with a round, an oval, or a triangular cross-section and wherein the portion of the insulating strip is disposed near a gap or joint between the support structure and a leg of the track.
