Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Fußbodenbelag gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patenanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a floor covering according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Ein derartiger Fußbodenbelag wird in der EP-A-0 218 108 beschrieben.Such a floor covering is described in EP-A-0 218 108.

Diese Anmeldung beschreibt einen Fußbodenbelag, der aus einer mit Noppen versehenen Platte zur Bildung von Kabelkanälen, einer auf der Noppenplatte liegenden, belastungsausgleichenden Platte und einem auf der Platte liegenden Teppichbodenbelag zusammengesetzt ist. Die Noppen der Noppenplatte können mit einem Füllmaterial, beispielsweise Kunststoffbeton gefüllt sein.This application describes a floor covering which is composed of a plate provided with knobs to form cable ducts, a load-compensating plate lying on the knob plate and a carpet covering lying on the plate. The knobs of the knobbed plate can be filled with a filling material, for example plastic concrete.

Die DE-A-38 01 765 zeigt und beschreibt einen Distanzkörper, der auf der Rückseite eines üblichen Fußboden- oder Wandbelags anzuordnen ist. Der Distanzkörper weist Vorsprünge auf, zwischen denen elektrische Kabel geführt werden können.DE-A-38 01 765 shows and describes a spacer which is to be arranged on the back of a conventional floor or wall covering. The spacer body has projections between which electrical cables can be guided.

Die DE-A-0 006 674 beschreibt eine bituminöse Teppichgrundfläche.DE-A-0 006 674 describes a bituminous carpet base.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen derartigen Fußbodenbelag der vorgenannten Gattung dahingehend zu verbessern, daß bei verhältnismäßig einfacher maschineller Herstellung und Bodenverlegung mit Hilfskräften ein auf- und ausrollbarer, aus Einzelbahnen oder Fliesen (Platten) gebildeter Fußbodenbelag geschaffen wird, der neben einem verhältnismäßig geringen spezifischen Gewicht eine hohe Trittfestigkeit und Gewichtsbelastbarkeit aufweist sowie auch Erschütterungen dämpft. Weiterhin soll der Fußbodenbelag einen geringen elektrischen Durchgangswiderstand bei guter Erdableitungsmöglichkeit aufweisen.The object of the invention is to improve such a floor covering of the aforementioned type in such a way that, with relatively simple mechanical production and floor laying with auxiliary workers, a roll-up and roll-out floor covering formed from single sheets or tiles (plates) is created, which in addition to a relatively low specific Weight a high resistance to treading and has weight resilience and also dampens vibrations. Furthermore, the floor covering should have a low electrical volume resistance with a good possibility of ground discharge.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Fußhodenbelag gemäß dem Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a testicular covering according to claim 1.

Ein derartiger Fußbodenbelag zeigt unter Bildung vorteilhafter Kanäle für elektrische oder optische Kabel eine verhältnismäßig dünne und damit wenig Raum einnehmende Ausbildung, der einerseits widerstandsfähig bei höheren Belastungen ist und andererseits hohe Isolationswerte hat.Such a floor covering shows, with formation of advantageous channels for electrical or optical cables, a relatively thin and thus occupying little space, which on the one hand is resistant to higher loads and on the other hand has high insulation values.

Ein solcher Fußbodenbelag dämpft insbesondere auch Erschütterungen, die einerseits von aufgestellten Maschinen o. dgl. ausgehen oder andererseits von außen an den Fußboden anlaufen können.Such a floor covering in particular also dampens vibrations which, on the one hand, originate from installed machines or the like or, on the other hand, can run up against the floor from the outside.

Die boden seitige Wirrfaserschicht haftet an einer zunächst weichen, dann sich erhärtenden, in die Noppen eingefüllten Füllmasse, vorzugsweise aus Faserzement.The bottom-side tangled fiber layer adheres to an initially soft, then hardening filling compound filled into the knobs, preferably made of fiber cement.

Unterseitig der Latexschicht ist eine festigkeitsverstärkende Schicht aus sich erhärtendem Bitumen gebildet.On the underside of the latex layer is one strengthening layer formed from hardening bitumen.

Bis auf die belastungsausgleichenden Platten und Teppichfliesen sind alle Schichten eines derartigen Fußbodenbelages so ausgebildet, daß sie aufgerollt transportiert und gelagert werden können.Except for the load-compensating panels and carpet tiles, all layers of such a floor covering are designed so that they can be rolled up and transported and stored.

Die bodenseitige Wirrfaserschicht ist vliesförmig und elastisch und kann aus Chemiefasern wie Polyester, Polypropylen, Polyacryl bestehen.The bottom-side tangled fiber layer is fleece-shaped and elastic and can consist of synthetic fibers such as polyester, polypropylene, polyacrylic.

Weitere Merkmale ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Further features emerge from the subclaims.

Mit (10) ist eine Platte aus einer Gewirke- oder Gewebebahn (mit Maschen) bezeichnet, deren nach oben vorstehende, im Tiefziehverfahren hergestellte Noppen (11) konisch ausgebildet sind und die bodenseitig auf einer Auflage- bzw. Haftfläche aus Wirrfasern (12) aufliegt und nach oben eine Metallplatte (13) mit unterseitigem Haftkleber haftend aber lösbar trägt.Exemplary embodiments of the floor covering are shown in the drawing. Show it:

With (10) is a plate made of a knitted or woven web (with stitches), the upstanding protruding knobs (11) are conical and the bottom rests on a support or adhesive surface made of tangled fibers (12) and carries upwards a metal plate (13) with adhesive on the underside, which is adhesive but detachable.

Die Noppen (11) haben eine Höhe von ca. 15 mm bodenseitig und ihr Durchmesser beträgt untenseitig ca. 10 - 24 mm und obenseitig ca. 8 - 12 mm. Bei dieser mit Noppen (11) ausgeprägten Platte (10) hat das Gewebe oder Gewirke eine Dicke von 0,6 - 1,2 mm. Die Weite der Maschen beträgt zwischen 0,8 - 1,2 mm. Die Fäden dieser Gewirke, Gewebe können mit Carbonfäden oder Metallfäden gesponnen sein, die neben ihrer elektrischen Leitfähigkeit auch zur Erhöhung der Festigkeit beitragen.The knobs (11) have a height of approx. 15 mm on the base and their diameter is approx. 10 - 24 mm on the underside and approx. 8 - 12 mm on the top. In this plate (10) with knobs (11), the woven or knitted fabric has a thickness of 0.6-1.2 mm. The width of the mesh is between 0.8 - 1.2 mm. The threads of these knitted fabrics can be spun with carbon threads or metal threads, which in addition to their electrical conductivity also contribute to increasing the strength.

Die Metallplatte (13) kann aus Stahlblech o. dgl. wie aluminiumplattierter oder verzinkter Stahlplatte bestehen. Sie kann als Leichtmetallplatte wie Aluminiumplatte oder auch als faserverstärkte Kunststoffplatte ausgebildet sein. Sie hat eine Dicke von ca. 1 - 1,3 mm. Auf dieser Metallplatte (13) liegt die elastische Laufschicht, die untenseitig eine sich erhärtende Bitumenschicht (14) hat und dann darüber eine Latexschicht (15), in welcher der oben außenseitige Faserflor (16) in bekannter Weise eingebettet ist. Die drei Schichten (14, 15, 16) der Laufschicht sind unlösbar miteinander bereits herstellungsmäßig verbunden.The metal plate (13) can consist of sheet steel or the like, such as aluminum-plated or galvanized steel plate. It can be designed as a light metal plate such as an aluminum plate or as a fiber-reinforced plastic plate. It has a thickness of approx. 1 - 1.3 mm. The elastic running layer, which has a hardening bitumen layer (14) on the underside, lies on this metal plate (13) then over it a latex layer (15) in which the fibrous web (16) on the outside outside is embedded in a known manner. The three layers (14, 15, 16) of the overlay are already inextricably linked to one another in terms of manufacture.

Die Noppen (11) sind gefüllt mit einem mit Fasern durchsetzten Zement (Beton) (17), der zunächst weich eingefüllt ist und dann erhärtet. Dabei faßt vorzugsweise diese Füllmasse (17) in die Maschenöffnungen der Noppen (11) verstärkend ein.The knobs (11) are filled with a fiber-interspersed cement (concrete) (17), which is first filled in softly and then hardens. This filling compound (17) preferably encloses a reinforcing effect in the mesh openings of the knobs (11).

Unter die zunächst weiche freie Fläche des faserverstärkten Zements (17) ist ein Wirrfaservlies (12) als Auflageschicht eingedrückt, das bei Erhärtung des Zements an dessen breiter Fläche unverschiebbar anhaftet.Under the initially soft free surface of the fiber-reinforced cement (17), a random fiber fleece (12) is pressed in as a support layer, which adheres to the wide surface of the cement when the cement hardens.

Diese Wirrfaserschicht (12) besteht ebenfalls aus Chemiefasern oder Naturfasern und kann eine Dicke von 0,2 - 3 mm, vorzugsweise 0,5 - 2 mm, aufweisen; sie wiegt zwischen 40 und 200 g/m².This random fiber layer (12) also consists of man-made fibers or natural fibers and can have a thickness of 0.2-3 mm, preferably 0.5-2 mm; it weighs between 40 and 200 g / m².

Diese Wirrfaserschicht (12) deckt einerseits die nach unten unbedeckten Flächen des Faserzementes (17) ab, welche den Noppen (11) eine hohe Druckfestigkeit verleiht.This tangled fiber layer (12) covers on the one hand the uncovered areas of the fiber cement (17), which gives the knobs (11) a high compressive strength.

Bei dem in Fig. 2 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist zusätzlich zwischen der Stirnseite der Noppen (11) und der Platte (13) eine Wirrfaserschicht (18) eingeschaltet, welche zusätzlich der Schalldämmung dient.In the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, an additional fiber layer (18) is additionally switched between the end face of the knobs (11) and the plate (13), which additionally serves for sound insulation.

Ein erfindungsmäßiger Fußbodenbelag ist gemäß ASTM 648 E oder DIN 4102 schwer entflammbar ausgebildet.A floor covering according to the invention is designed to be flame-resistant in accordance with ASTM 648 E or DIN 4102.

Die in den Noppen (11) weich eingefüllten und sich erhärtenden Faserzementblöckchen (17) durchdringen die Maschenöffnungen der Noppen (11).The fiber cement blocks (17) softly filled and hardening in the knobs (11) penetrate the mesh openings of the knobs (11).

Die Fäden des Gewirkes (oder Gewebes) sind vorzugsweise mit einem sich erhärtenden Kunststoff beschichtet oder imprägniert.The threads of the knitted fabric (or fabric) are preferably coated or impregnated with a hardening plastic.
