Definitions
- a method for improving a working top and a covering top to be used thereby A method for improving a working top and a covering top to be used thereby.
- the invention relates to a method for improving a working top in an existing kitchen.
- the average life of a common so-called built-in kitchen is around fifteen years.
- the working top is generally the part that is first considered for renewal, especially due to wear and damage, whilst in many cases the working top itself no longer meets the requirements that are currently made of such a working top. Also from an optical point of view the working top is generally dated after some time.
- a covering top having a covering edge engaging over the front edge of the existing working top is fitted on top of the existing working top.
- a prefabricated covering top can be fitted over the existing working top in a simple and quick manner, whilst unnecessary structural disturbance can be avoided thereby.
- the working top can be readily adapted to the dimensions of a new hotplate and/or sink (combination) which may be fitted as well. Because of the simple manner in which a new covering top can be fitted it is furthermore readily possible to adapt the colour of the working top according to current tastes and fashion, without high costs being involved.
- the widths of usual working tops generally range from
- the width of the covering top is according to the invention adapted to the width of the existing working top. This makes it possible to use a standard covering top for a wide variety of kitchens.
- Figure 1 is a diagrammatic cross-sectional view of a covering top to be provided on top of an existing working top.
- Figure 2 is a diagrammatic cross-sectional view of the rear wall of the covering top, with a section being mounted thereon and a vertically upright cover wall being placed in said section.
- the covering top 1 illustrated in Figure 1 is at its front side provided with a covering edge 2 projecting under the covering top. Near the transition between the horizontal top part and the covering edge 2 an elevation 3 is provided, as a result of which water present on the covering top is prevented from flowing from the covering top, which is made in one piece, when the covering top is being used.
- the upper side of the covering top is formed by a plate 4 consisting of a laminate of plastic material compressed under high pressure, which is bonded to a ⁇ 5 mm thick fibreboard 5 of a water-repellent quality.
- the covering top 1 is covered by a water-repellent top layer 6.
- the material of the upper plate 4 may be supplied in various colours, structures and material imitations, so that the appearance of the covering top can be readily adapted to changing tastes and fashions.
- the total thickness of the layers 4, 5 and 6 is ⁇ 8 mm, whilst the covering edge 2 extends over a height of ⁇ 42 mm under the horizontally extending part of the covering top, so that the total height b of the covering top is ⁇ 52 mm.
- the width of the usual working tops generally ranges from 550 to 620 mm. Consequently a width a of ⁇ 640 mm is preferred for the covering top.
- the width of the covering top can be readily adapted to the size of the existing working top to be covered.
- a covering top of this type which is illustrated in Figure 1, is factory-made to standard lengths or to size, but it may also be made to size by professionals or by do-it-yourselfers in accordance with the existing working top to be covered. If made to size, the covering top may for example be fixed to the existing working top by means of a cement, whereby the covering edge 2 covers the front edge of the existing working top.
- any openings for the sink (combination), hotplate and the like can likewise be readily provided in the working top.
- the upper plate 4 of the covering top according to the invention can be maintained and cleaned in a simple manner when using the material referred to above. Furthermore the use of water-repellent fibreboard and the water-repellent top layer 6 will render the new covering top substantially insensitive to the action of moisture.
- section 7 shown in Figure 2 which comprises a vertically upright web 8 joined by a horizontal leg 9 at its bottom edge.
- a leg 10 extending parallel to the horizontal leg 9 joins said web at some distance above said leg 9.
- the leg 10 is provided with a nose 11 projecting above the leg 10.
- Section 7 may be moved onto a rear edge of the covering top 1 directed towards a wall in the manner illustrated in Figure 2, such that said rear edge of the covering top will come to lie between the two legs 9 and 10, whilst the web 8 will for example abut against existing tilework or another wall finish.
- the bottom end of a covering wall 12 may then be placed between said web 8 and the projecting nose 11 in order to cover existing (dated) tilework or the like.
- the covering wall 12 may thereby be made of the same material and have the same colour as the covering top 1.
