DE102005029933A1 - Wooden floor for balconies or patios comprises an elongated trough-shaped water-drainage profile between adjacent wooden slats which lie with their under sides on the two upward-protruding profile edges of the water-drainage profile - Google Patents

Abstract

Wooden floor, especially for balconies or patios, comprises several long wooden slats (1) which are arranged parallel to each other to form a floor surface. An elongated trough-shaped water-drainage profile (4) is provided in the region between adjacent wooden slats. The under sides of adjacent wooden slats lie on the two upward-protruding profile edges (5) of the water-drainage profile. Preferred Features: The water-drainage profile has a U-shaped cross-section. The wooden floor has a slope.

Description

The The invention relates to a wooden floor, in particular for balconies and terraces, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Of the floor of balconies as well as terraces can be among other ways such as stone slabs, be designed with wood. there are on a corresponding concrete substrate a plurality of elongated Wooden boards arranged parallel to each other. The totality of these wood profiles then creates a floor space wooden.

Next The possibility, the wooden boards flush can lay together the longitudinal areas the wooden boards overlap slightly by a corresponding profiling. This has the disadvantage that itself in it can set dirt, which due to the moisture through Irrigation in the long term to putrefaction leads. Furthermore drips water through, as the joints between the wooden boards always a certain water permeability own and an absolute seal technically very expensive would.

From that Based on the object of the invention, an improved Wooden floor, especially for Balconies as well as terraces to create the type specified, in particular the risk of rot of the wooden boards is reduced is.

The technical solution is characterized by the features in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Thereby is an improved wooden floor, in particular for balconies as well as terraces, created, in particular the danger of the rotting of the wooden boards is significantly reduced. Preference is given to the wooden floor for balconies used, which in a so-called stand construction with a wood or Metal construction executed are. The basic idea of the wood floor according to the invention is that the wooden boards with their longitudinal edges rest on water drainage profiles, which are trough-shaped in cross section and thereby about the length seen define a kind of gutter. The rainwater, which only by the distance between two adjacent wooden boards flow down can, is then automatically absorbed by the water drainage profiles and over this derived. The fixing of the wooden boards on the concrete underground can be done in particular by screws. Thus, in total a special compound of the wooden boards created so that the wood floor tight is. Because the water is over the Drained water drainage profiles. These preferably have a corresponding gradient. Because then the water is optimally derived, there is no risk that the wooden boards lazy over time. Here is the use of different Wooden possible. The Dimensions and surfaces are arbitrary. The water drainage profiles are preferably around aluminum profiles. in principle but also the use of plastic profiles is conceivable.

Preferably it is in the water drainage profile according to the embodiment in claim 2 around a profile with a substantially U-shaped cross-section. The thigh of the U-profile protrude upward, thereby defining the gutter.

Preferably is between the adjacent wooden boards according to the development in claim 3 such a large Interspacing provided that the Rainwater can flow easily into the water drainage profiles down.

A preferred training proposes Claim 4 before. The downwardly open grooves of the wooden boards serve the inclusion of the upwardly projecting tread edges of the water drainage profiles. By using such grooves, the wooden boards get the necessary hold on the water drainage profiles. In addition, will Simplifies the assembly by placing the wooden boards with their Grooves are simply placed on the water drainage profiles.

A Continuing this suggests according to claim 5 that the a groove of the water drainage profile associated groove pair of adjacent wooden boards a larger width owns as the strength of associated profile edge. Preferably, the width corresponds to other groove then about the strength the profile edge. By this technical measure, the wooden board can "work" side, without it to tension forces comes, which leads to deformations could.

A Another preferred embodiment proposes according to claim 6, that the longitudinal edges of the Wooden boards have downward dripping strips. this has the advantage that the Water dripping from the wooden boards into the water drainage profiles without that the There is a risk that the Water creeps along the side of the underside of the wooden boards, which Total lead to leaks could.

The Training according to claim 7 has the advantage that the Relaxation slots bulges prevent at the wooden boards.

Finally, the training suggests according Claim 8, that the wooden floor has a slope. This gradient is at least 1%, so that the water can drain easily.

One embodiment a wooden floor according to the invention, especially for Balconies and terraces will be described below with reference to the drawings. This drawing shows a schematic, perspective front view a section of the wooden floor.

From the basic structure of the wood floor consists of a plurality of elongated wooden boards 1 , which are joined together side by side leaving an intermediate distance. These wooden boards 1 each have a groove on the underside in the edge region 2 . 2 ' on, with the one groove 2 of the wooden board 1 is relatively narrow and where the other groove 2 ' of the wooden board 1 is relatively wide. Finally, the wooden boards along the long sides each directed down dripping strips 3 on. At the wooden board 1 with its grooves 2 . 2 ' as well as the drip strips 3 it is a one-piece wooden part, in soft the grooves 2 . 2 ' as well as the drip strips 3 are worked out accordingly.

Between two wooden boards 1 each is a water drainage profile 4 intended. It is a U-shaped aluminum profile with upwardly directed, leg-like profile edges 5 , This water drainage profile 4 defines a kind of gutter. In the assembled state is on the one profile edge 5 the one groove 2 of the wooden board 1 attached. Since here the strength of the profile edge in about the width of the groove 2 corresponds, there has no play on the wooden board. The other groove 2 ' of the wooden board 1 however, it is much wider than the thickness of the profile edge 5 , so that there is a side game here.

The operation is as follows:
The wooden boards 1 of the wooden floor together with the water drainage profiles 4 a water-impermeable system. Because on the wooden boards 1 water is flowing through the space between two adjacent wooden boards 1 through down and enters the water drainage profile 4 from where it can be derived into the rain sewerage. The water drips from the drip strips 3 the wooden boards 1 down, so that there is no risk that water on the underside between the wooden board 1 and the water drainage profile 4 creeps.
