Abstract

A ground lining for regulating the water balance of an area of ground has a combination of ground panels (5) which can be placed against each other and a panel covering (51) which has a number of openings (16a, b) to allow the passage of water. The ground lining (6) also comprises a panel base (52) which is located at a distance from the panel covering (51), several reservoirs (54) being provided between the panel base (52) and the panel covering (51). These reservoirs are separated from each other by dividing walls (53) that extend between the panel base (52) and the panel covering (51) and adjacent reservoirs (54) are interconnected by an overflow (55). According to prior art, moisture is only stored above the level of the panel in direct contact with the surface structure or the surface that is walked on. According to the invention, the reservoirs (54) that extend under the panel base (52) ensure a longer-lasting storage capacity and therefore a longer moisture supply phase to the structure above. Another ground lining is composed of a combination of rectangular ground panels (5) which are laid against each other and are delimited by peripheral side walls (56). Two side walls (56) are adjacent through a corner each have a molded-on elastic hook (8) for connecting adjacent ground panels (5).

Description

Bodenbelag, Decke und Verfahren zum Anlegen einer Grünfläche Flooring, ceiling and method for creating a green area
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Bodenbelag zur Regulierung des Wasserhaushalts nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 , einen Bodenbelag nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 12, eine Decke zum Anlegen einer Grünfläche oder eines Sportplatzes gemäß Anspruch 16 sowie ein Verfahren zum Anlegen einer Grünfläche gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 17.The invention relates to a floor covering for regulating the water balance according to the preamble of claim 1, a floor covering according to the preamble of claim 12, a blanket for creating a green area or a sports field according to claim 16 and a method for creating a green area according to the preamble of claim 17 .
Bodenbeläge zur Regulierung des Wasserhaushalts eines Bodens, beispielsweise eines Sportplatzes sind in der DE 197 20 006 A1 offenbart. Dort sind miteinander zu einem Belag verbindbare Gitterplatten beschrieben, die an ihrer Oberseite Erhebungen und Senken zur Speicherung einer Restfeuchtigkeit aufweisen. Diese Bodenbeläge haben sich bei Deckenaufbauten bewährt, die einen normalen Feuchtigkeits- bedarf haben. Für Deckenaufbauten mit erhöhtem Feuchtigkeitsbedarf oder Grünflächen, die einer langen Trockenzeit ausgesetzt sind, werden erhöhte Anforderungen an die Regulierungsfähigkeit des Wasserhaushalts im Boden gestellt.Floor coverings for regulating the water balance of a floor, for example a sports field, are disclosed in DE 197 20 006 A1. Lattice panels that can be connected to one another are described there, which have elevations and depressions on their upper side for storing residual moisture. These floor coverings have proven themselves in ceiling structures that require normal moisture. For ceiling structures with increased moisture requirements or green areas that are exposed to a long dry season, increased demands are placed on the ability to regulate the water balance in the soil.
Ein weiterer Bodenbelag sowie eine Decke zum Anlegen eines Reitplatzes ist in der DE 44 16 943 A1 dargestellt. Die nach oben offene Gestaltung der Bodenplatten mit den aufragenden Kanten der einzelnen hexagonalen Plattenelemente sind einerseits empfindlich gegen Beschädigung insbesondere dann wenn die Bodenplatten als Bestandteil einer Reitplatzdecke freigelegt werden. Das birgt dann auch eine Verletzungsgefahr der die Decke betretenden Personen oder Tiere. Weiter ist auch die Wasserregulierungsfähigkeit eines derart offenen Gebildes reduziert.Another floor covering and a blanket for creating a riding arena is shown in DE 44 16 943 A1. The open design of the floor panels with the protruding edges of the individual hexagonal panel elements are sensitive to damage on the one hand, in particular when the floor panels are exposed as part of a riding arena ceiling. This also poses a risk of injury to people or animals entering the ceiling. Furthermore, the water regulation ability of such an open structure is reduced.
Selbiges gilt auch für die in den Veröffentlichungen US 5,816,738; DE 297 07 770 U 1 ; DE 196 32 070 C2; EP 0 516 957 A1 und DE 44 15 595 A1 offenbarten, teilweise für Rasenflächen verwendbaren Gitterplatten.The same also applies to those in the publications US 5,816,738; DE 297 07 770 U 1; DE 196 32 070 C2; EP 0 516 957 A1 and DE 44 15 595 A1 disclosed grid plates which can partly be used for lawns.
Auch was die Verlegefähigkeit großflächiger Bodenbeläge anbelangt, ist es hilfreich, diese auch mittels Wickelvorrichtungen auf den Baugrund oder Bodenoberfläche schnell ablegen zu können; hier sind an die Verbindungselemente zwischen den Platten erhöhte Anforderungen hinsichtlich Flexibilität und Festigkeit zu stellen. Zudem müssen bei Bodenelementen mit Temperaturschwankungen Dehnungen zwischen den Platten ausgeglichen werden können. Weiter soll die Erfindung dazu beitragen, durch ein geeignetes Verfahren das Anlegen von Grünflächen auch bei schwierigen Boden- und Klimaverhältnissen zu beschleunigen.Also with regard to the ability to lay large-scale floor coverings, it is helpful to be able to place them quickly on the building ground or floor surface using winding devices; here are the connecting elements between the Boards place increased demands on flexibility and strength. In addition, in the case of floor elements with temperature fluctuations, it must be possible to compensate for expansion between the plates. Furthermore, the invention is intended to contribute to accelerating the creation of green areas even in difficult soil and climatic conditions by means of a suitable method.
Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe bezüglich des Bodenbelags alternativ durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 und des Anspruchs 12 gelöst. Die Aufgabe hinsichtlich der Decke eines Sportplatzes oder einer Grünfläche wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 16 erfindungsgemäß gelöst.According to the invention, the object relating to the floor covering is alternatively achieved by the features of claims 1 and 12. The object with regard to the ceiling of a sports field or a green area is achieved according to the invention by the features of claim 16.
Wesentlich für den dauerhaften Erhalt einer Grünanlage, wie Rasenfläche, Sportplätze etc. ist die Regulierung des Wasserhaushaltes im Aufbau der Decke. Um den kostenintensiven Aufwand an künstlicher Bewässerung gerade in Trockenzeiten o- der klimatisch ungünstigen Regionen der Erde zu minimieren sieht die Erfindung vor, Reservoirs zur Speicherung von Wasser in der Bodenplatte zu integrieren. Während im Stand der Technik die Speicherung von Feuchtigkeit nur oberhalb der Plattenebene, im unmittelbaren Kontakt zum darüberliegenden Oberbau bzw. Tretschicht vorgesehen ist, gewährleisten die unterhalb der Plattenboden sich erstreckenden Reservoirs eine längerwährende Speicherfähigkeit und damit eine längere Versorgungsphase des darüberliegenden Aufbaus mit Feuchtigkeit. Hierfür ist von Bedeutung, daß die Reservoirs geschlossen, also ohne direkten Kontakt zum darüberliegenden Deckenaufbau, innerhalb der Bodenplatte ausgeführt sind. Die Überläufe zwischen den Reservoirs stellen sicher, daß lokal erhöhtes Wasseraufkommen auf die benachbarten Reservoirs verteilt werden kann, so daß eine homogene Wasserregulierungsfähigkeit in der Decke bzw. im Bodenbelag gegeben ist. Durch eine zusätzliche Profilierung der Plattendecke, beispielsweise mittels Erhebungen und Senken kann einerseits zusätzlichen Einfluß auf die Regulierungsfähigkeit genommen werden und andererseits die Steifigkeit des Bodenbelags erhöht werden, was bei Druckbelastung des Belags von Vorteil ist. Auch wird die Haftung und der Verbund zur angrenzenden Schicht erhöht. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist darin zu sehen, daß durch die von den Erhebungen und Tälern gebildete Oberflächenkontur der Bodenplatten eine dem Fließverhalten der Tretschicht entgegenwirkende Oberflächenkontur gefunden werden konnte, durch die nicht nur in der Tretschicht zwischen den Erhebungen ein seitliches Verdrängen der Tretschicht unterbunden wird sondern auch ein seitliches Verdrängen oberhalb der Erhebungen wirkungsvoll unterdrückt wird. Der Effekt beruht darauf, daß bei lokaler Druckbelastung eine kegelförmige Druckverteilung in der Tretschicht hervorgerufen wird, die aufgrund der durch Erhebungen strukturierten Oberfläche der Bodenplatten weitgehend kompensiert wird. Dieser Kompensationseffekt wird durch die schräg ausgebildete Wandung der Erhebungen, die in der Regel konisch oder pyramidenförmig ausgebildet ist, verstärkt, so daß dem Druck beispielsweise eines Pferdehufes sich eine entgegengerichtete konische Druckverteilung in der Tretschicht als Reaktion einstellt. Diese wirkt dem konischen Druckverlauf durch den Pferdehuf entgegen. Somit wird die horizontale Druckkomponente unterhalb des Pferdehufes weitgehend aufgehoben und ein seitliches Ausweichen der Tretschicht (Sand) oberhalb der Erhebungen wirkungsvoll unterbunden. In weiterer Ausbildung der Erfindung sind die Erhebungen reihenweise versetzt zueinander angeordnet, so daß ein Fließen der Tretschicht längs der Täler erschwert ist. Eine derartige Anordnung ergibt sich auch bei schachbrettartiger Anordnung der Erhebungen, wenn statt einer Talkreuzung zwischen vier benachbarten Erhebungen eine Erhebung angeordnet wird. Diese zweiten Erhebungen können dann abweichend von den zuvor genannten ersten Erhebungen ausgebildet werden. Die zweiten Erhebungen könnten beispielsweise ohne Senke oder kleiner ausgeführt sein.The regulation of the water balance in the structure of the ceiling is essential for the permanent maintenance of a green area, such as lawn, sports fields, etc. In order to minimize the cost-intensive outlay on artificial irrigation, particularly in dry periods or climatically unfavorable regions of the world, the invention provides for integrating reservoirs for storing water in the base plate. While in the prior art the storage of moisture is only provided above the level of the slab, in direct contact with the superstructure or footing above it, the reservoirs extending below the slab floor ensure long-term storage capacity and thus a longer supply phase of the structure above with moisture. It is important for this that the reservoirs are closed, ie without direct contact with the ceiling structure above, within the base plate. The overflows between the reservoirs ensure that locally increased water supply can be distributed to the neighboring reservoirs, so that there is a homogeneous water regulation ability in the ceiling or in the floor covering. By additional profiling of the slab ceiling, for example by means of elevations and depressions, on the one hand additional influence can be exerted on the ability to regulate and on the other hand the rigidity of the floor covering can be increased, which is advantageous when the covering is under pressure. Adhesion and bond to the adjacent layer are also increased. Another advantage can be seen in the fact that the surface contour of the floor slabs formed by the elevations and valleys was able to find a surface contour which counteracts the flow behavior of the footing, which not only prevents lateral displacement of the footing in the footing between the elevations but also lateral displacement above the elevations is effectively suppressed. The effect is based on the fact that, under local pressure loads, a conical pressure distribution is produced in the footing, which is largely compensated for by the surface of the base plates structured by elevations. This compensation effect is reinforced by the inclined wall of the elevations, which is usually conical or pyramid-shaped, so that the pressure of a horse's hoof, for example, is counteracted by a conical pressure distribution in the footing as a reaction. This counteracts the conical pressure curve through the horse's hoof. Thus, the horizontal pressure component below the horse's hoof is largely eliminated and lateral evasion of the footing (sand) above the elevations is effectively prevented. In a further embodiment of the invention, the elevations are arranged in rows offset from one another, so that it is difficult for the tread layer to flow along the valleys. Such an arrangement also results in a checkerboard arrangement of the elevations if an elevation is arranged between four adjacent elevations instead of a talc crossing. These second surveys can then be formed differently from the aforementioned first surveys. The second elevations could for example be designed without a sink or smaller.
Sollten dennoch die Bodenplatten lokal von der Tretschicht freigelegt werden, so zeigt sich die Oberflächenstruktur gegenüber Schlageinwirkungen weitgehend unempfindlich, da die Erhebungen grundsätzlich großflächiger ausgebildet sind als eine stegartige Unterteilung der Oberfläche. Eine Beschädigung der Bodenplatten durch Fremdeinwirkung sowie eine daraus resultierende Verletzungsgefahr muß daher nicht befürchtet werden.If the base plates are nevertheless exposed locally by the footing layer, the surface structure is largely insensitive to the effects of impact, since the elevations are generally larger than a web-like subdivision of the surface. Damage to the floor slabs due to external influences and the resulting risk of injury must therefore not be feared.
Ein weiterer Vorteil des Bodenbelages liegt in der biegeelastischen Gestaltung der Bodenplatten, welche sich durch die wellige Struktur der einander folgenden Erhe- bungen und Täler ergibt. Vorteilhaft ist auch die Nachgiebigkeit der Platte senkrecht zur Plattenebene. Eine Belastung der Bodenplatte führt zu einem lokalen Eintauchen der Erhebungen in ungefüllte Hohlräume unterhalb der Bodenplatte, was die Nachgiebigkeit ermöglicht. Die hieraus resultierende Elastizität des Bodenbelages ge- währleistet großflächig gleichbleibende Bodenverhältnisse.Another advantage of the floor covering lies in the flexurally elastic design of the floor panels, which is characterized by the undulating structure of the successive exercises and valleys. The flexibility of the plate perpendicular to the plate plane is also advantageous. A load on the base plate leads to a local immersion of the elevations in unfilled cavities below the base plate, which enables the flexibility. The resulting elasticity of the floor covering ensures that the floor conditions remain the same over a large area.
Die erfindungsgemäße Gestaltung des Bodenbelages macht diesen universell für Decken jeder Art geeignet, so daß der Bodenbelag auch für Fahr- und Gehwege sowie für Absteilflächen in Lagerhallen geeignet ist, wo er direkt kontaktiert wird.The design of the floor covering according to the invention makes it universally suitable for ceilings of all kinds, so that the floor covering is also suitable for driveways and sidewalks as well as for storage areas in warehouses where it is contacted directly.
Durch die Ausbildung über Eck gelegener Haken an den Rändern der Bodenplatten ist es möglich einen großflächigen Verbund als Bodenbelag zu bilden, der auch auf Dorne auf- bzw. abgewickelt werden kann, so daß ein schnelles Verlegen großflächiger Bodenbeläge möglich ist. Die U-förmige Gestaltung der Haken gestattet die notwendige Flexibilität beim Auf- und Abrollen des Belages bzw. der Platten.Due to the formation of corner hooks on the edges of the floor panels, it is possible to form a large-area composite as a floor covering, which can also be wound up or unwound on mandrels, so that a quick installation of large-area floor coverings is possible. The U-shaped design of the hooks allows the necessary flexibility when rolling up and down the covering or the panels.
Aufgrund der Verfüllbarkeit des Reservoirs in den Bodenplatten auch mit Substraten, die das Boden- oder Grünflächenwachstum fördern, kann durch das Verlegen derartig gefüllter Bodenplatten die Herstellung einer Grünfläche beschleunigt werden.Due to the fact that the reservoir can be filled in the floor slabs even with substrates that promote soil or green space growth, the laying of such filled floor slabs can accelerate the production of a green space.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen bezüglich der Bodenbeläge finden sich in den Merkmalen der Ansprüche 2 bis 11 und 13 bis 15.Further advantageous embodiments with regard to the floor coverings can be found in the features of claims 2 to 11 and 13 to 15.
Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung werden nachfolgend unter Bezug- nähme auf die beigefügte Zeichnung erläutert.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are explained below with reference to the attached drawing.

Die Decke eines Rasens für einen Golfplatz, wie sie in Fig.1 im Querschnitt dargestellt ist, besteht aus einem Baugrund 1 und einem darüberliegenden Oberbau 2. Bei dem Baugrund 1 kann es sich um einen Untergrund aus Kies, Gras, Lehm, Sand oder Humus handeln. Zur Beseitigung grober Unebenheiten wird der Baugrund ge- gebenenfalls planiert, so daß er für den Oberbau 2 vorbereitet ist. Auf den so vorbereiteten Baugrund 1 werden im folgenden die einzelnen Schichten des Oberbaus 2 gelegt. Nach oben hin aufbauend setzt sich dieser aus einer unteren Sandschicht 4, einem aus Bodenplatten 5 bestehenden Bodenbelag 6, sowie aus einer von Rasen und Humus gebildeten Tretschicht 7 zusammen. Die Bodenplattenn 5 sind aus ei- nem Thermoplast hergestellt, wobei auch Recyclingmaterial zur Verwendung kommt.The cover of a lawn for a golf course, as shown in cross section in FIG. 1, consists of a building ground 1 and a superstructure 2 above it. Building ground 1 can be a surface of gravel, grass, clay, sand or humus act. If necessary, the subsoil is leveled to remove gross unevenness so that it is prepared for the superstructure 2. In the following, the individual layers of the superstructure 2 are placed on the ground 1 prepared in this way. Building upwards, this consists of a lower layer of sand 4, a floor covering 6 consisting of floor slabs 5, and a footing 7 formed by lawn and humus. The base plates 5 are made of a thermoplastic, with recycling material also being used.
Wie weiter in Fig.1 zu erkennen ist, setzt sich der Bodenbelag 6 aus einer Vielzahl miteinander verbundenen Bodenplatten 5 zusammen, wobei die Verbindung benachbarter Bodenplatten 5 über mehrere biegeeiastische Haken 8 erfolgt. Durch die elastische Verbindung der Bodenplatten 5 ist es zum einen möglich daß der Bodenbelag 6 sich an vom Baugrund 1 herrührende Unebenheiten anschmiegt, ohne daß Lücken zwischen den Bodenplatten 5 entstehen. Somit wird auch sichergestellt, daß die Bodenplatten 5 durch Fremdeinwirkung nicht auseinander getrieben werden können.As can further be seen in FIG. 1, the floor covering 6 is composed of a plurality of floor plates 5 which are connected to one another, the connection of adjacent floor plates 5 taking place via a plurality of flexible hooks 8. The elastic connection of the floor slabs 5 makes it possible, on the one hand, for the floor covering 6 to nestle against unevenness resulting from the building ground 1, without gaps occurring between the floor slabs 5. This also ensures that the base plates 5 cannot be driven apart by external influences.
Was den geometrischen Grundriß der Bodenplatten 5 anbelangt, so werden diese vorteilhaft als regelmäßiges Polygon ausgestaltet, wobei die Ausführungsbeispieie nach den Fig.1, 2a, 2b, 3 und 5 Bodenplatten 5 mit quadratischem Grundriß zeigen. Die für die Ausfuhrungsbeispiele nach den Fig 2a, b und 5 gewählte Seitenlange von 200 bzw 250 Millimetern erlaubt ein bahnenweises Aufrollen des Bodenbelages 6, so daß ein schnelles Verlegen des Bodenbelages 6 möglich istAs far as the geometric layout of the floor slabs 5 are concerned, they are advantageously designed as a regular polygon, the exemplary embodiments according to FIGS. 1, 2a, 2b, 3 and 5 showing floor slabs 5 with a square floor plan. The side length of 200 or 250 millimeters selected for the exemplary embodiments according to FIGS. 2a, b and 5 allows the floor covering 6 to be rolled up in strips, so that the floor covering 6 can be laid quickly
Wie den Fig 2a und 2b zu entnehmen ist, wird die Bodenplatte 5 von einer Plattendecke 51 und einem Plattenboden 52 gebildet, die voneinander durch vertikal sich erstreckende Trennwände 53 beabstandet sind Die Trennwände 53 verlaufen - wie gestrichelt in Fig 2a dargestellt - gitterformig und unterteilen somit den Hohlraum der Bodenplatte in schachbrettartig nebeneinander liegende Reservoirs 54As can be seen from FIGS. 2a and 2b, the base plate 5 is formed by a plate cover 51 and a plate base 52, which are spaced apart from one another by vertically extending partition walls 53. The partition walls 53 run - as shown in broken lines in FIG. 2a - in a lattice shape and thus divide the cavity of the base plate into reservoirs 54 lying side by side like a chessboard
Benachbarte Reservoirs 54 sind über Überlaufe 55 miteinander verbunden, so daß über in der Plattendecke 51 vorgesehene Deckenoff nungen 16a und 16b Wasser in die Reservoirs eintreten und sich gleichmaßig über die Reservoirs 54 verteilen kannAdjacent reservoirs 54 are connected to one another via overflows 55, so that openings 16a and 16b provided in the slab ceiling 51 can enter the reservoirs and can be evenly distributed over the reservoirs 54
Bei Schragstellung der Bodenplatte 5, in Hanglage beispielsweise, kann sich das Wasser durch die Ausbildung einzelner Reservoirs auch hangaufwarts halten Hierfür sind die Überlaufe 55 nahe der Plattendecke 51 in den Trennwanden 53 ausgebildet Die Überlaufe 55 sind als Wanddurchbruche ausgeführtWhen the base plate 5 is inclined, for example on a slope, the water can also hold up the slope due to the formation of individual reservoirs. For this purpose, the overflows 55 are formed near the plate ceiling 51 in the partition walls 53. The overflows 55 are designed as wall openings
Wie weiter in den Fig 2a und 2b zu erkennen, ist die Bodenplatte 5 von einer umlaufenden Seitenwand 56 umgeben, deren Rander sich über die Plattendecke 51 hinaus erstrecken Die Rander schließen auf einer Hohe mit in der Plattendecke 51 ausgebildeten Erhebungen 9 abAs can further be seen in FIGS. 2a and 2b, the base plate 5 is surrounded by a circumferential side wall 56, the edges of which extend beyond the plate cover 51. The edges end at a height with elevations 9 formed in the plate cover 51
In den Fig 2a und 2b ist zudem die Profilierung der Plattendecke 51 gezeigt Jede Bodenplatte zeichnet sich durch schachbrettartig auf Plattendecke 51 ausgebildete, pyramidenförmige Erhebungen 9 aus, wobei die Plattendecke 51 entsprechend der Anordnung der Reservoirs 54 jeweils in neun gleich große quadratische Felder mit jeweils einer zentrisch angeordneten Erhebung 9 aufgeteilt ist Zwischen den Erhe- bungen 9 erstrecken sich die im Schnitt V-formigen Taler 10 Die einem Pyramidenstumpf ähnlichen Erhebungen 9 schließen nach oben mit einem kreisringformigen Rand, dem sogenannten Kraterrand 12 ab Die Kontur der Erhebung ergibt sich durch die Kombination einer pyramidenförmigen Basis die kontinuierlich bis zum ringförmigen Kraterrand 12 in eine konische Form übergeht; ab hier erstreckt sich der Kraterrand 12 vertikal nach oben. Vom Kraterrand 12 ausgehend erstreckt sich zentrisch ins Innere der Erhebungen 9 jeweils eine kraterförmige Senke 13.2a and 2b, the profiling of the slab ceiling 51 is also shown. Each floor slab is characterized by pyramid-shaped elevations 9 which are designed in the manner of a chessboard on the slab ceiling 51, the slab ceiling 51, in accordance with the arrangement of the reservoirs 54, each in nine equally sized square fields, each with one Centrally arranged elevation 9 is divided between the elevations 9, the troughs 10 which are V-shaped in section. The elevations 9, which are similar to a truncated pyramid, end at the top with an annular rim, the so-called crater rim 12. The contour of the elevation results from the combination a pyramid-shaped base that extends continuously to annular crater rim 12 changes into a conical shape; from here the crater rim 12 extends vertically upwards. Starting from the crater rim 12, a crater-shaped depression 13 extends centrally into the interior of the elevations 9.
Zur unterstützenden Regulierung des Wasserhaushaltes sind die Kraterränder 12 mit Deckenöffnungen 16b versehen, so daß das Wasser aus den Tälern 10, sobald es den Kraterrand 12 erreicht, über dessen Deckenöffnungen 16b in den Baugrund 1 abfließen kann. Die Deckenöffnungen 16b der Kraterränder 12 sind als vertikal in den Kraterrand sich erstreckende Bohrlöcher ausgeführt, deren Durchmesser größer ist als die Wandstärke der Kraterränder, so daß sich vom Grund der Ränder schlitzförmige Deckenöffnungen 16b erstrecken. Wasser, welches in die Senke 13 einläuft, fließt über die zentrisch in der Senke 13 ausgebildete Deckenöffnungen 16a ab.To support the regulation of the water balance, the crater rims 12 are provided with ceiling openings 16b, so that the water from the valleys 10, as soon as it reaches the crater rim 12, can flow into the ground 1 via its ceiling openings 16b. The ceiling openings 16b of the crater edges 12 are designed as boreholes extending vertically into the crater rim, the diameter of which is greater than the wall thickness of the crater edges, so that slot-shaped ceiling openings 16b extend from the bottom of the edges. Water which flows into the depression 13 flows out through the ceiling openings 16a formed centrally in the depression 13.
Die Plattendecke 51 , die Trennwände 53 sowie die Seitenwände 56 sind separat vom Plattenboden 52 im Spritzguß- oder Tiefziehverfahren hergestellt.The plate ceiling 51, the partition walls 53 and the side walls 56 are produced separately from the plate base 52 by injection molding or deep-drawing.
Ein Verbund mehrerer Bodenplatten 5 ist in Fig. 3 zu sehen. Mittels zweier Haken 8, die jeweils an über Eck gelegenen zwei Seitenwänden 56 ausgebildet sind, sind benachbarte Bodenplatten 5 zu einem Bodenbelag 6 verbunden. In den übrigen beiden Seitenwänden sind jeweils Aussparungen 81 zum Eingreifen der Haken 8 vorgesehen. Die Haken 8 sind - was bei Spritzgußteilen integral ausgeführt werden kann - an den Seitenwänden 56 angeformt.A composite of several base plates 5 can be seen in FIG. 3. Adjacent floor plates 5 are connected to a floor covering 6 by means of two hooks 8, which are each formed on two side walls 56 located at a corner. Recesses 81 for engaging the hooks 8 are provided in the remaining two side walls. The hooks 8 are integrally formed on the side walls 56, which can be carried out integrally in injection molded parts.
Die Bodenplatte 5 benachbarter Reihen sind ohne Versatz zueinander - also schachbrettartig angeordnet, so daß ein Bodenbelag 6 auf einen Dorn aufgewickelt und somit schnell zum Verlegen abgewickelt werden kann. Die bogenförmig ausgebildeten Haken 8 stellen die hierfür notwendige Flexibilität zwischen den Bodenplatten sicher, sodaß wie in Fig. 1 und 3 zu erkennen, eine elastische Nachgiebigkeit der Bodenplatten 5 zueinander, insbesondere in der Plattenebene ermöglicht wird. Da- durch werden Spannungen in den Bodenplatten, welche sich durch Ungleichmäßig- keiten des darunter liegenden Bodens ergeben können erheblich reduziert. Die Fig. 4a und 4b zeigen die Haken 8 zur elastischen Verbindung benachbarter Bodenplatten 5.The base plate 5 of adjacent rows are arranged without offset from one another - that is to say in a checkerboard fashion, so that a floor covering 6 can be wound onto a mandrel and can thus be unwound quickly for laying. The arch-shaped hooks 8 ensure the necessary flexibility between the base plates, so that, as can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 3, an elastic flexibility of the base plates 5 to one another, in particular in the plate plane, is made possible. This considerably reduces tensions in the floor slabs, which can result from unevenness in the floor below. 4a and 4b show the hooks 8 for the elastic connection of adjacent base plates 5.
Die Haken 8 weisen einen U-förmigen oder bogenförmigen Abschnitt 82 auf, wobei ein zur Seitenwand 56 parallel angeordneter Schenkel 83 mit Abstand zur Seitenwand 56 ausgebildet ist. Im Bereich des Hakens 8 weist die Seitenwand 56 einen Ausschnitt 84 auf, in welchen der Haken 8 hineinragt. Der Schenkel 83 ist T-förmig mit der angrenzenden Trennwand 53 verbunden, was ein Ausbeulen oder gar Ausreißen des Hakens 9 unter Last aus der Seitenwand 56 verhindert. An seinem freien Ende ist am Haken 8 eine federnd ausgebildete Lasche 85 vorgesehen, die beim Eingriff des Hakens 8 in die Aussparung 81 der benachbarten Bodenplatte 5 in eine seitens der Aussparung ausgebildete Hinterschneidung 84 federnd einschnappt. Der Haken 8 wird also zum Einsetzen in den Ausschnitt 84 der benachbarten Bodenplatte im wesentlichen senkrecht zur Plattenebene, von obe in den Ausschnitt einge- steckt. Die Nachgiebigkeit dieser Verbindung veräuft damit im wesentlichen senkrecht zu Eingriffsrichtung des Hakens 8, was einerseits ein Herausrutschen des Hakens 8 unter Spannung vermeidet und andererseits die elastische Nachgiebigkeit in Plattenrichtung unterstützt.The hooks 8 have a U-shaped or arcuate section 82, a leg 83 arranged parallel to the side wall 56 being formed at a distance from the side wall 56. In the area of the hook 8, the side wall 56 has a cutout 84 into which the hook 8 projects. The leg 83 is connected in a T-shape to the adjacent partition 53, which prevents the hook 9 from bulging or even tearing out of the side wall 56 under load. At its free end, a resilient tab 85 is provided on the hook 8, which, when the hook 8 engages in the recess 81 of the adjacent base plate 5, snaps into an undercut 84 formed on the part of the recess. The hook 8 is therefore inserted into the cutout 84 of the adjacent base plate essentially perpendicular to the plate plane, from above into the cutout. The flexibility of this connection is thus essentially perpendicular to the direction of engagement of the hook 8, which on the one hand prevents the hook 8 from slipping out under tension and on the other hand supports the elastic flexibility in the direction of the plate.
In Fig. 5 ist eine Bodenplatte 5 in alternativer Ausführung ohne Erhebungen und ohne Plattenboden gezeigt. Die Haken 8 bilden einen ebenen Abschluß mit der Oberfläche der Bodenplatte, welche mit zahlreichen Öffnungen zum Durchlaß von Wasser und/oder Licht versehen ist. Die Bodenplatte 5 eignet sich zum Verlegen als o- berflächlicher Bodenbelag um einerseits den Boden zu befestigen und ihn anderer- seits vor Beschädigung durch intensives Betreten oder Befahren zu schützen. Durch die Verbindung der Bodenplatten mittels der zuvor beschriebenen Haken 8 ist ein Auf- und Abrollen des Bodenbelags möglich. Bezugszeichenliste5 shows a base plate 5 in an alternative embodiment without elevations and without a plate base. The hooks 8 form a flat closure with the surface of the base plate, which is provided with numerous openings for the passage of water and / or light. The floor slab 5 is suitable for laying as a surface floor covering, on the one hand to fix the floor and on the other hand to protect it from damage due to intensive treading or driving. By connecting the floor panels by means of the hooks 8 described above, the floor covering can be rolled up and down. Reference list
