Benefits of technology

[0017] Crown molding strips are manufactured in a wide range of sizes, decorative styles, and are made of various materials. Common materials are wood, plaster and plastics. However, the installation and durability of such crown moldings suffer from three deficiencies; first standard moldings, even those with longitudinal grooves do not have adequate groove structure for uniformly spreading bonding agents, as such agents need to be able to move lateral

Problems solved by technology

Our prior art search with abstracts described above teaches molding systems with longitudinal grooves, but fails to teach a lateral groove system used with the prior art longitudinal grooves.

Abstract

A crown molding unit for engagement with a ceiling surface and an adjacent wall surface of a room has a first surface positioned for flush contact with a ceiling surface and simultaneously, a second surface positioned for flush contact with a wall surface. Each of the first and the second surfaces provide a plurality of side-by-side parallel longitudinal grooves and a plurality of side-by-side parallel lateral grooves, the lateral grooves lie orthogonal to the longitudinal grooves and converge to a depression in the apparatus.
