Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a plate-like element for covering floors and walls, particularly suitable to be used as a tile, mosaic tessera and the like.
  • Tiles or plates made of marble or granite are currently in use which have, on their outer surface, decorative patterns, such as engravings, reliefs and color effects.
  • These stone-like materials can include, for example, crystalline marbles and quartz-rich granites.
  • the aim of the present invention is to utilize, in combination or separately, the properties offered by materials such as crystalline marbles, quartz-rich granites and the like, in order to provide tiles, plates, mosaic tesserae and the like with decorative or color effects.
  • a plate-like element for covering floors and walls characterized in that it comprises a supporting base coupled to a plate of stone-like material that is at least partially optically transparent, at least one decorative element being interposed between the supporting base and the plate.
  • a plate-like element for covering floors and walls generally designated by the reference numeral 1, according to the invention, comprises a supporting base 2, which is coupled, at a larger surface, to a plate 3 made of stone-like material that is at least partially optically transparent.
  • At least one decorative element 4 is enclosed between the coupled opposite surfaces of the supporting base 2 and of the plate 3.
  • the decorative element 4 can equally consist of materials of any type and shape, such as wood elements, optionally shaped in an appropriate manner, filament-like elements made of valuable metallic material, such as gold or silver, paper, which can be optionally variously illustrated, fabric and so forth.
  • the decorative element 4 might also be constituted by, or comprise, means suitable to give a color effect which are constituted for example by a coloring.
  • Coloring can be provided, for example, by means of colored solvents, applied preferably but not necessarily to the surface of the plate 3 that is coupled to the supporting base 2.
  • the use of colored solvents allows to convey pigments into the plate 3, so as to achieve color penetration.
  • the following formulation of the solvent phase is suitable for the specific purpose: 10% acetone, 15% cyclohexanone, 40% styrene, 13% toluene or xylene, 10% ethyl acetate, 2% ethyl alcohol, 10% trichloroethylene.
  • the solid phase can be chosen among a wide range of commercially available organic pigments and colors.
  • the decorative element 4 can also be a relief or an engraving or any combination of these decorative forms.
  • Engravings and reliefs can be formed equally on the plate 3 or on the supporting base 2 or on both.
  • the supporting base 2 can be made of the same material as the plate 3 or even of different material, since the type of material used to produce the supporting base 2 is irrelevant for the intended purpose, which will become better apparent hereinafter.
  • the supporting base 2 can also consist of a wall portion or alternatively of a floor portion onto which the plate 2 is to be coupled, interposing the decorative elements 4.
  • the plate 3 can advantageously have, on its surface designed to be coupled to the supporting base 2, a recess 3a, for example in a central position and designed to accommodate the decorative element 4, and a connecting edge 3b, which delimits the recess 3a and is designed to abut against the supporting base 2.
  • the connecting edge 3b conveniently allows to have a surface for the application of adhesives or cementing materials of any kind.
  • the supporting base 2 may also be rigidly coupled to the plate 3 by way of perimetric coupling means, not shown in the above mentioned figures, which can be constituted for example by clamps or the like or by screw connections, which allow to clamp together the supporting base 2 and the plate 3.
  • perimetric coupling means not shown in the above mentioned figures, which can be constituted for example by clamps or the like or by screw connections, which allow to clamp together the supporting base 2 and the plate 3.
  • the decorative element or elements 4 i.e., the elements suitable to give a decorative appearance to the plate-like element 1, are trapped between the supporting base 2, made of any material, and the plate 3 made of a stone-like material that is at least partially optically transparent, such as for example a crystalline marble or a quartz-rich granite.
  • the decorative elements 4 can in any case be perceived on the outer surface of the plate 3.
  • the decorative element 4 comprises colored solvents placed on the surface of the plate 3 that is in contact with the supporting base 2, the vision of the colors and therefore of the color effects is transmitted on its opposite surface, due to the combined effect of the partial permeability to particular solvents and of the optical properties of materials such as crystalline marble or quartz-rich granite.
  • the visible surface of the plate-like element 1 does not consist of a backing surface, made for example of marble or granite, that is colored or treated or decorated in various manners; rather, the color or decorative effect appears on the surface despite being internal to the plate-like element 1 according to the present invention.
  • Decorative processes such as engraving and/or relief sculpting, or coloring processes or other processes suitable to provide decorative elements 4 as described above are performed on the two larger surfaces of an initial plate 5 made of crystalline marble or quartz-rich granite (or made of any other at least partially optically transparent stone-like material), which has a thickness of possibly approximately 16 mm.
  • a supporting base 2 having any thickness is coupled to each one of the surfaces of the initial plate 5, for example by gluing with transparent or colored adhesives or by cementing, accordingly producing a three-layered plate 6.
  • the resulting three-layered plate 6 is then parted at the initial plate 5, for example halfway or along a preset cutting plane, by means of a suitable tool, accordingly obtaining two plate-like elements 1 according to the present invention.
  • the plate-like elements 1 are subjected to finishing processes, such as polishing of the plate 3, in order to allow optimum visual perception of the embedded decorative elements, and to all those known processes that are normally performed on marble or granite products.
  • the invention allows to provide tiles, mosaics made of marble of granite or the like with decorative effects that are not directly applied to their external surface but are included therein yet are still visually perceivable.
  • the materials employed may be any according to requirements.
