Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tile to be used as a main decorative unit in a floor decoration system.
  • the invention furthermore relates to a floor decoration sy­stem comprising a prefabricated self-spacing tile con­stituting a main decorative unit, and a filler to be filled at the site.
  • the present invention is based on the problem of pro­viding a floor decoration system allowing broad and un­limited ranges of patterns and geometrical decoration containing fine and tiny interfaced decorative units without requiring a respective variety of different tile shapes or decorations and without additional spacers being necessary to install the tiles clearly and exactly separated, and thus reducing the cost as well as making the installation simple.
  • the new system should be installable by using plain tiles only, for example of terrazzo or cement, having standard geometrical pattern in each decorative shape.
  • the invention is bas­ ed, that is to apply said system in the design of roof tiles which prevent water leakage through separating lines between tiles as these lines can be filled com­pletely with a filler.
  • a first solution according to the invention consists, for the tile to be used as a main unit in a floor de­coration system in that at least at one edge of each main unit the bottom side of which overlaps in a step­-like way the tile top side at a distance sufficient to define a distinct separating linear or channel-like gap between the top side edges of adjacent main units when tiling.
  • Such an inventive tile renders it possible to establish a floor decoration system comprising a pre­fabricated, self-spacing tile constituting a main de­corative unit and a filler to be filled at the site, whereby said main units are installed to join one an­other at a separating line defined by the overlapping or projecting bottom side edge and whereby said gaps are filled with a filler, particularly with a coloured filler.
  • said self-spacing tiles aiming at projecting separating lines between adjacent bottom side edges defining a distinctly presupposed pattern of plain tiles having standard geometrical shape, which are surrounded or bound by exactly defined bands of filler, without an additional spacer.
  • a second solution according to the invention consists in a floor decoration system comprising a prefabricated self-spacing tile constituting a main decorative unit and a filler to be filled at the site, wherein said main units, each having selected corners at its edge, are arranged to meet one another at one respective se­lected corner to confine areal voids between the oppo­site edges of each group of two or more main units; and wherein said voids are filled at the site with a filler, such that the voids comprise minor units of the same but differently coloured material of which said main units are fabricated.
  • this second floor decoration system of the invention makes it possible to produce minor decor­ative or patterned units in the shape of said areal voids. These voids are filled after the installation of the main units and thus allow the fabrication of a large variety of patterns, even that patterns which cannot withstand transport and/or installation when pre-fabricated.
  • main unit or “main decorative unit” means a decorative pattern which is constituted by prefabricated tiles that are used to establish a floor decoration system
  • minor unit or “minor decorative unit” means a decorative shape of that parts of the floor decorative system, which are constituted by the filling of those regions that are not covered by the decorative pattern of the main units, particularly the minor units are formed by filling areal voids between or even in the prefabricated tiles. Especially that voids which remain after the installation of the main units are to be filled at the site.
  • the second system of the present invention re­sides in a floor decoration which consists of pairs, triplets or larger groups - briefly of multi pairs - of main units without a contact between the edges of main units.
  • the main units are installed by arranging their corners opposite to each other with some selected angles, so that said voids are confined between the edges of said main units. After filling these voids with a suitable filler to distinguish them from the main units the voids represent the minor units of decorative patterns.
  • said selected angles particularly can be controlled by the opposition of changeable or selected extensions of the tile bottom edges.
  • a third inventive floor decoration system resides in that said main units are arranged to join one another at least partly at said separating lines accompanied by said linear gaps and defined by select­ing one of said projecting bottom side edges, and to confine areal voids between the non-joining full or part edges of which, wherein said gaps being filled with a filler at the site constituting separation bands between adjacent main units and wherein said voids after being filled with a filler confine said minor units.
  • this third system can consist of two units or more whereby there is contact between the edges of the main units.
  • This solution furnishes a combination of the first and second floor decoration system, since the main units are self-spacing as in the case of the first solution (for projecting the separating linear gap and bands and in addition to that, after installation of the main units, areal voids which represent the geometrical shape for minor units shall appear and shall be filled with a suitable filler to form the minor units of the second system as well as the sepa­ration bands of the first system.
  • the pattern of the third system would be well described to consist of multi pairs or groups too - remembering that each pair, triplet and so on of the main units confines a minor unit - while the pattern of the first system, which does not confine any minor unit, may be said to consist as a whole of a multi unit.
  • the invention resides in a floor de­coration system (using terrazzo or cement tiles etc.) which includes three designs for self-spacing tiles for developing, separating or joining lines between tiles having geometrical shape and/or for producing minor de­corations in the shape of voids to be filled at the site.
  • a floor de­coration system using terrazzo or cement tiles etc.
  • the decorative patterns are produced by using tiles having standard geometrical shape for each decorative pattern and, in addition, often only the pattern of the minor units appear as a decoration, whereby the minor units are formed by filling voids left between the edges of the main units after installation of which.
  • the separating lines between the tiles are made to project without using particular spacers by making the bottom side or rear part edge of the tile to project off like a step from all or some edges of the tile top side.
  • the step projection should reach a di­stance sufficient to make said separating lines pro­jecting by e.g. 4 mm.
  • Installing said main units the top side edges of the tiles are spaced from each other automatically in order intervals as a result of the projections of the bottom sides.
  • Fig. 16 represents a triangle tile the bottom side of which projects over the top side at all edges.
  • the separating gaps, which surround the geometrical shapes of the tile top sides shall be fill­ed with a coloured filler showing to obtain said sepa­rating bands.
  • the floor shall be polished for finishing the desired decorated pattern.
  • the top side of the tiles can be spaced by order intervals of e.g. 5 mm without using said additional spacers, since the bottom side stands out in relation to the top side at all tile edges. At last, it is easy to fill spaces or gaps left between adjacent top sides with cement mortar or the like to prevent water leakage through them.
  • Fig. 17 illustrates respective welds which are filles completely.
  • the decoration only contains tiles with the geometrical shape of main units.
  • the main units shall be installed in a constant arrangement of decorative shape in order that the minor units shall appear in the shape of voids to be filled after the in­stallation of the main units.
  • the opposition angle between the respective units can be adjusted by changeable projections coming from each tile.
  • the lower projections shall meet one another to control the angle.
  • Metallic models of the proposed geometrical shape of the voids can be placed during installation to adjust the opposition angles.
  • the voids shall be filled for instance with plain concrete for making a sublayer in the voids.
  • the work is continued by using the same mortar used in making the tile faces, which is made for instance from marble cuts or natural stone white gravel, marble powder or white cement. Then this top layer is covered with a finish layer, for instance of white or coloured cement powder for obtaining a smooth surface.
  • the area of the voids is small as in the case of de­corative pattern, e.g. also in or on the top side of a main unit, it may be sufficient to use the mortar of final coat as primer. After completion and setting of the units the floor shall be polished for smoothing the surface so that the decoration can be seen clearly.
  • the tiles are to be installed without having contact between each other, since the voids in between them are having de­corative shapes integrating the decorative shape of the tiles.
  • cavities having geometrical shape can be made on or in the top side of the tiles during the fabricat­ion of which. These cavities can be filled either prior or after installation with differently coloured mate­rial.
  • the common thing among the patterns of the third system or embodiment is that there is contact between selected edges or at least selected sections of edges of the main units, while the non-contacting rest of the edges or sections of which respectively confine said minor units.
  • the third system allows to produce separating linear gaps or bands (to be filled with a filler) be­tween main units without using spacers, and additional­ly to produce the minor units in the shape of the areal voids, which appear after installation of the main units too and which are similarly to be filled by a filler at the site. For the installation prefabricated tiles are to be used in the shape of the main units.
  • the respective tiles shall be self-spacing as in the case of the first embodiment where the bottom side edge projects step-like from the top-side edge, so that the top sides of adjacent tiles become distinctly spaced from one another when tiling and the linear gap between said parallel top side edges can be filled with a filler after the installation of the main units.
  • the minor units re­main in the shape of areal voids to be filled at the site as in the case of the second system.
  • the floor shall be polished also to obtain a clearly visible decoration.
  • the systems of the invention provide a floor decoration without an increasing in cost and allow for decoration in accurate preselected shapes, even where it was until now difficult to form such shapes. Furthermore, the in­vention induces the possibility of obtaining several decorative patterns using the same type of tiles only by changing the arrangement of which during installation, as it can be seen in the case of the pat­terns of fig. 6 to 8, which are produced by using the same type of tiles.
