Description

Procédé pour confectionner un parquet à partir de blocs de bois de bout. Method for making parquet from blocks of end grain.
La présente invention est relative à un procédé pour confectionner un parquet, à partir de blocs de bois de bout, posés sur une chape ou sur un sous- plancher existant sensiblement plan. Elle concerne également un parquet ou un placage, confectionné suivant le procédé précité.The present invention relates to a method for making parquet, from end-of-timber blocks, placed on a screed or on a substantially flat existing sub-floor. It also relates to parquet or veneer, made according to the above-mentioned process.
Le parquet suivant l'invention est avant tout destiné à recouvrir une aire parfaitement plane d'un sous-plancher établi en matériaux divers, tels que des dalles de béton éventuellement armé, bétons légers, dalles de plancher surélevé,par exemple dans des salles d'ordina¬ teurs, de gymnastique, de sport, musées, halls, salles polyvalentes.The parquet according to the invention is above all intended to cover a perfectly flat area of a sub-floor established in various materials, such as possibly reinforced concrete slabs, light concrete, raised floor slabs, for example in halls. computers, gymnastics, sports, museums, halls, multipurpose rooms.
La disposition des blocs de bois de bout ou de biais, implique que la fibre du bois est sensiblement verticale ou oblique.The arrangement of the blocks of end or bias wood, implies that the wood fiber is substantially vertical or oblique.
On connaît, par le brevet américainWe know from the American patent
US.P. 1.302.560, un parquet constitué de pavés de bois, traités en surface pour en accroître la dureté super¬ ficielle et éviter le retrait. Les pavés sont disposés en rangées. On fixe la base de chacun des pavés de bois au sous-plancher, en collant les parois latérales entre elles à l'aide d'une colle appropriée. Ces parquets connus présentent cependant le désavantage de former un ensemble rigide sujet aux fissures provenant du jeu naturel du bois.US.P. 1,302,560, a parquet made of wooden pavers, treated on the surface to increase its surface hardness and avoid shrinkage. The pavers are arranged in rows. The base of each of the wooden pavers is fixed to the sub-floor, by gluing the side walls together using an appropriate glue. These known parquet floors however have the disadvantage of forming a rigid assembly subject to cracks coming from the natural play of wood.
La présente invention a pour but d'éviter les inconvénients susdits et propose un procédé pour confectionner un parquet présentant une surface d'usure extrêmement dure, mais suffisamment souple que pour absorber des chocs, une adhérence minime des salissures sans être trop lisse, ainsi qu'une excellente isolation thermique et phonique.The present invention aims to avoid the above drawbacks and provides a method for making a parquet having an extremely hard wear surface, but flexible enough to absorb shock, minimal adhesion of dirt without being too smooth, as well as '' excellent thermal and sound insulation.
Le procédé suivant l'invention est essentiel ment caractérisé par le fait qu'on prévoit pour chacun des blocs, des arêtes rodées, de manière à soustraire à la vue les interstices éventuels séparant deux blocs adjacentThe process according to the invention is essentially characterized by the fact that, for each of the blocks, lapped edges are provided, so as to hide from view any interstices separating two adjacent blocks
Suivant une particularité de l'invention, o recouvre le sous-plancher d'une couche éventuellement étan d'amortissement et d'isolation thermique et acoustique en matière résiliente et élastique, sur laquelle on fixe les blocs de bois susdits en collant la face inférieure de chacun des blocs sur ladite couche d'amortissement à l'aid d'une colle élastique.According to a feature of the invention, o covers the sub-floor with a possibly etan layer of damping and thermal and acoustic insulation in resilient and elastic material, on which the above wooden blocks are fixed by gluing the underside of each of the blocks on said cushioning layer using an elastic adhesive.
On réalise avantageusement des éléments préassemblés en dalles amovibles, en assemblant un nombre déterminé de blocs de bois sur une semelle élastique découpée aux dimensions requises, que l'on pose sur le sous-plancher. Dans un mode de mise en oeuvre particulier du procédé suivant l'invention, on recouvre la couche d'amortissement d'une tram sensiblement inextensible.Advantageously, elements preassembled in removable tiles are produced, by assembling a determined number of wooden blocks on an elastic sole cut to the required dimensions, which is placed on the sub-floor. In a particular embodiment of the method according to the invention, the damping layer of a substantially inextensible tram is covered.
On prévoit alors pour chacun des blocs des arêtes horizontales inférieures et supérieures rodées.Provision is then made for each of the blocks with lower and upper horizontal lapped edges.
L'invention concerne également un revêtement de sol confectionné selon le procédé décrit ci-dessous, ce revêtement étant essentiellement caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte des blocs à parois latérales lisses posés sur une couche d'amortissement, plus particuliè¬ rement en mousse de polyéthylène expansée.The invention also relates to a floor covering made up according to the method described below, this covering being essentially characterized in that it comprises blocks with smooth side walls placed on a damping layer, more particularly in foam of expanded polyethylene.
D'autres particularités et détails de l'invention apparaîtront au cours de la description détaill d'une forme particulière de réalisation d'un revêtement de sol suivant l'invention, illustrée par les dessins suivants.Other features and details of the invention will become apparent during the detailed description of a particular embodiment of a floor covering according to the invention, illustrated by the following drawings.
Dans ces dessinsIn these drawings
- la figure 1 est une vue en élévation latérale d'un parquet suivant l'invention; - la figure 2 illustre les propriétés élastiques du parquet montrées à la figure 1 ;- Figure 1 is a side elevational view of a parquet according to the invention; - Figure 2 illustrates the elastic properties of the parquet shown in Figure 1;
- la figure 3 est une vue' analogue à la figure 1 d'un parquet dont la couche d'amortissement est munie d'une trame sen&iblement inextensible ;- Figure 3 is a view ' similar to Figure 1 of a parquet whose cushioning layer is provided with a substantially & inextensible weft;
- la figure 4 montre un élément de pose préfabriqué muni d'une couche d'amortissement.- Figure 4 shows a prefabricated laying element provided with a damping layer.
Dans ces figures, les mêmes notations de référence désignent des éléments identiques ou analogues. Comme illustré à la figure 1, le parquet suivant l'invention se compose de blocs, dalles ou pavés 1, le plus souvent en bois ou en matière synthétique, qui recouvrent une couche d'amortissement 2 de matière résiliente et élastique. Ces blocs 1 présentent une forme parallélipipédique à paroislatérales 3 lisses, c'est-à-dire démunies de languettes ou rainures latérales.In these figures, the same reference notations designate identical or analogous elements. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the parquet according to the invention consists of blocks, slabs or pavers 1, most often made of wood or synthetic material, which cover a damping layer 2 of resilient and elastic material. These blocks 1 have a parallelepiped shape with smooth side walls 3, that is to say devoid of tabs or lateral grooves.
Ces blocs 1 sont fixés à la couche d'amortissement 2 en matière résiliente et élastique par collage de leur face inférieure 4. On veille à ce qu'il n'y ait pas de colle ni entrave sur les parois latérales 3 de chaque bloc. Cette couche d'amortissement 2 est avantageusement constituée de mousse.These blocks 1 are fixed to the damping layer 2 of resilient and elastic material by bonding their lower face 4. It is ensured that there is no glue or obstruction on the side walls 3 of each block. This damping layer 2 is advantageously made of foam.
Il en résulte une élasticité ponctuelle w quand le bloc 1 subit une pression en surface, il comprime la mousse et s'y enfonce dans une mesure directement pro¬ portionnelle à la force de ladite pression et inverse¬ ment proportionnelle à la résistance de la mousse et aux dimensions de laface de contre-parement 4 du bloc 1. La profondeur d'en oncement admissible des blocs est principalement réglable par le choix de densité de la mousse et des dimensions des blocs, choix qui se fait en fonction des forces de compression prévisibles pour chaque utilisation du système.This results in a point elasticity w when the block 1 undergoes surface pressure, it compresses the foam and sinks therein to a directly proportional extent to the force of said pressure and inversely proportional to the resistance of the foam and to the dimensions of the facing surface 4 of the block 1. The permissible embedding depth of the blocks is mainly adjustable by the choice of density of the foam and of the dimensions of the blocks, a choice which is made as a function of the compression forces. predictable for each use of the system.
De préférence, on met en oeuvre des blocs dont les arêtes sont légèrement rodées, de manière à ce qu'elles ne soient pas coupantes. En outre, on dispose avantageusement la fibre du bois verticale- ment ou obliquement de manière à éviter les échardes, ce qui rend le parquet plus sûr dans une salle de sport ou de gymnastique.Preferably, blocks are used whose edges are slightly lapped, so that they are not sharp. In addition, the wood fiber is advantageously placed vertically or obliquely so as to avoid splinters, which makes the parquet safer in a sports or gymnastic hall.
Pour éviter des discontinuités brutales à la surface du parquet, on prévoit d'interposer entre la couche d'amortissement 2 et les blocs 1, une trame inextensible 5. De ce fait, lorsque des blocs 1 sont enfoncés sous des charges ponctuellement localisées sur lesdits blocs, ceux-ci abaissent la trame 5 autour d'eux, la trame 5 entraîne les blocs adjacents l' des blocs chargés et comprime la mousse selon un plan incliné autour du point chargé. Il se forme une pente qui relie les blocs enfoncés au niveau général du parquet.To avoid sudden discontinuities on the surface of the parquet floor, provision is made to interpose between the damping layer 2 and the blocks 1, an inextensible frame 5. As a result, when blocks 1 are driven under loads punctually located on said said blocks, these lower the weft 5 around them, the weft 5 drives the adjacent blocks of the loaded blocks and compresses the foam in an inclined plane around the loaded point. A slope is formed which connects the sunken blocks to the general level of the parquet.
Ce film inextensible rend donc le parquet plus sûr, puisqu'il empêche la formation, entre des blocs adjacents, d'une discontinuité brutale sur laquelle on pourrait trébucher.This inextensible film therefore makes the parquet safer, since it prevents the formation, between adjacent blocks, of a brutal discontinuity on which one could stumble.
En outre, ladite trame renforce la mousse et prévient les déchirures dans celle-ci. Si la couche d'amortissement 2 est une mousse synthétique extrudée, elle est en principe recouverte d'une peau qui fait partie intégrante de sa structure propre et dont les cellules superficielles n'ont pas été tranchées. Dans ce cas, cette peau, beaucoup moins élastique que les cellules sous-jacentes, entraîne les blocs voisins dans le même mouvement descendant. Cette solution nécessite un collage des blocs à la mousse par une colle souple.In addition, said frame strengthens the foam and prevents tears therein. If the damping layer 2 is an extruded synthetic foam, it is in principle covered with a skin which is an integral part of its own structure and whose surface cells have not been sliced. In this case, this skin, much less elastic than the underlying cells, drives the neighboring blocks in the same movement. descending. This solution requires bonding the blocks to the foam with a flexible adhesive.
Si la couche d'amortissement est par contre une mousse synthétique expansée, elle comporte des cellules tranchées.If the cushioning layer is on the other hand an expanded synthetic foam, it has cut cells.
En ce cas encore, il convient que la colle utilisée soit au moins aussi élastique que le tapis de mousse, afin de ne causer aucune avarie aux cellules du tapis durant les mouvements. Le film perforé ou perméable de la trame 5-ne peut comporter de fils ou de fibres micro- ou macro- scopiquement coupants qui détérioreraient le tapis.In this case also, the adhesive used should be at least as elastic as the foam mat, so as not to cause any damage to the cells of the mat during the movements. The perforated or permeable film of the weft 5-may not contain micro- or macro-scopically cutting threads or fibers which would damage the carpet.
On pose les blocs légèrement écartés et on remplit les joints avec une pâte translucide 6 rendant les blocs solidaires , Cette pâte translucide peut fluctuer dans les interstices en suivant les mouvements des blocs. Elle peut être à base de résines synthétiques ou être celle prévue dans le brevet belge No. 894.573.The slightly spaced blocks are placed and the joints are filled with a translucent paste 6 making the blocks interdependent. This translucent paste can fluctuate in the interstices by following the movements of the blocks. It can be based on synthetic resins or be that provided for in Belgian patent No. 894.573.
L'élasticité ponctuelle résultant de la mise en place d'une couche d'amortissement 2 est différente de l'élasticité naturelle d'une lame de bois.The point elasticity resulting from the installation of a damping layer 2 is different from the natural elasticity of a wooden strip.
Alors que cette dernière agit plutôt comme un ressort, l'élasticité ponctuelle agit comme un amortisseur qui absorbe les chocs. En outre, la couche d'amortissement suivant l'invention procure une isolation thermique et acoustique excellente.While the latter acts rather as a spring, the point elasticity acts as a shock absorber which absorbs shock. In addition, the damping layer according to the invention provides excellent thermal and acoustic insulation.
Suivant une particularité de l'invention, le procédé permet d'assembler les blocs sur une dalle ou lé 7 découpé aux dimensions requises de manière à former un élément de pose 8 préfabriqué. Le lé 7 peut éventuellement comporter une couche adhesive sur laquelle on applique les blocs de bois 1,According to a feature of the invention, the method makes it possible to assemble the blocks on a slab or strip 7 cut to the required dimensions so as to form a prefabricated laying element 8. Strip 7 can optionally include an adhesive layer on which the wooden blocks 1 are applied,
Les éléments préassemblés en dalles amovible d'un nombre déterminé de blocs de bois ou les blocs isolés peuvent être fixés sur ladite couche d'amortissement en pose libre ou collés chacun sur la couche d'amortissementThe elements pre-assembled in removable slabs of a determined number of wooden blocks or the isolated blocks can be fixed on said damping layer in free standing or each glued on the damping layer
2-, ou sur le sous-plancher. Ils peuvent comporter éventuel lement chacun leur propre support 9 en matière résiliente élastique.2-, or on the sub-floor. They may optionally each have their own support 9 made of elastic resilient material.
La semelle souple des éléments préassemblés permet une pose des dalles sur supports qui ne sont pas en parfait état comme, par exemple, des chapes plus ou moins fendillées ou abîmées, ou encore sur des chapes destinées primitivement à des simples tapis et n'ayant pas la résistance mécanique exigée pour y coller du bois de bout. Ces éléments préassemblés ne devant pas être nécessairement collés au support, ils peuvent donc être posés sur des panneaux plus légers que ceux utilisés quand on colle le parquet sur le panneau-support.The flexible sole of the preassembled elements allows laying of slabs on supports which are not in perfect condition such as, for example, more or less cracked or damaged screeds, or even on screeds intended primarily for simple carpets and not having the mechanical strength required to stick end grain to it. These preassembled elements do not necessarily have to be glued to the support, they can therefore be placed on lighter panels than those used when gluing the parquet on the support panel.
Les arêtes de la face de parement sont avantageusement rodées ou écornées de manière à soustraire à la vue les interstices éventuels séparant deux blocs adjacents. Ces arêtes rodées jouent le rôle d'un chanfrei de planches. Elles servent à dissimuler les interstices éventuels entre blocs, provoqués par le jeu naturel du bois. Cette régularité des joints apparents sensiblement identiques sur toute la surface du parquet, procure un effet de continuité de surface remarquable,The edges of the facing face are advantageously lapped or chipped so as to hide from view any interstices separating two adjacent blocks. These lapped edges play the role of a plank chamfer. They serve to conceal any gaps between blocks, caused by the natural play of wood. This regularity of substantially identical visible joints over the entire surface of the parquet, provides a remarkable surface continuity effect,
La mise en place des éléments préassemblés quand on les veut amovibles, se fait par simple gravité. Pour les dalles minces ou légères, on utilise de préférenc une colle détachable. Pour enlever une dalle, on la soulève avec une ventouse.The installation of the preassembled elements when they are removable is done by simple gravity. For thin or light slabs, a detachable glue is preferably used. To remove a slab, we raises with a suction cup.
Le procédé suivant l'invention offre les avantages suivants : suppression des encadrements métalliques visibles des planches surélevées amovibles; possibilité de réaliser les dalles amovibles du support surélevé en matériau bon marché; suppression du sertissage de pavés de bois dans des cadres métalliques souplesse d'utilisation partout où un accès fréquent aux conduites électriques et tuyaux de chauffage est exigé; possibilité de remplacer une ou plusieurs dalles; embellissement avec l'usure; absence d'échardes; isolant acoustique; haute résistance à l'écrasement; sensation élastique; isolant thermique; pose facile et rapide.The process according to the invention offers the following advantages: elimination of visible metal frames from removable raised boards; possibility of making the removable slabs of the raised support in inexpensive material; elimination of the setting of wooden blocks in metal frames flexibility of use wherever frequent access to electrical and heating pipes is required; possibility of replacing one or more tiles; beautification with wear; absence of splinters; acoustic insulation; high crush resistance; elastic feeling; thermal insulator; easy and quick installation.
Il est évident que la présente invention n'est pas limitée aux procédés ni aux formes de réalisation décrits ci-dessus. Ceux-ci peuvent en effet faire l'objet de nombreuses modifications sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. It is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the methods or embodiments described above. These can indeed be subject to numerous modifications without departing from the scope of the invention.
