Abstract

See full text

The present invention is designed to effectively band ornamental trims onto panel edges, such as those of furniture tops. The present invention utilizes pneumatic forces to hold the ornamental trims against the panel edges instead of traditional clamps, resulting in asserting a uniform pressure press-fitting the trims against the panel edges along a good length of the trims instead of merely along several points of the trims. furthermore, since the contacting surface of the present invention is made of a soft material, it would not leave any pressmarks or indentations on the trims as can left by a hardened clamp.
