Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Fußbodensystem mit einer Mehrzahl von Paneelen, wobei die Paneelen an den Seitenkanten Verbindungsmittel aufweisen und wobei jeweils an zwei gegenüber angeordneten Seitenkanten zueinander korrespondierende Verbindungsmittel vorgesehen sind.The invention relates to a floor system with a Plurality of panels, the panels on the Have side edges connecting means and where each on two opposite side edges corresponding connecting means are provided.

Derartige Fußbodensysteme sind seit langer Zeit aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt. Insbesondere im Bereich der Laminatfußböden sind in den letzten Jahren Entwicklungen erfolgt, die durch die erreichte Qualität der Kernstrukturen aus mitteldichten Faserplatten (MDF) und hochdichten Fasernplatten (HDF) erst möglich geworden sind. Insbesondere die leimlos zu verlegenden Laminatpaneelen haben sich weit im Markt verbreitet, da diese Paneele mit wenigen Hilfsmitteln leicht verlegt werden können. Dabei dienen mechanische Verriegelungsmittel einem ausschließlich mechanischen Verbinden durch form- oder kraftschlüssige Verriegelungen, die ohne den Einsatz eines Klebstoffes eine zuverlässige Verbindung zwischen den Paneelen ermöglichen. Dabei gibt es eine Vielzahl von im Stand der Technik offenbarten Ausführungsformen und Methoden, die Paneelen zu verlegen.Such floor systems have long been out of the State of the art known. Especially in the area of Laminate floors have been evolving in recent years done by the quality achieved Core structures made of medium density fibreboard (MDF) and high-density fiberboard (HDF) have only become possible. In particular the glue-free laminate panels have spread widely in the market because these panels come with few tools can be easily installed. there mechanical locking means only serve one mechanical connection through positive or non-positive Interlocks that one without the use of an adhesive enable reliable connection between the panels. There are a large number of them in the prior art disclosed embodiments and methods of paneling embarrassed.

Beispielhaft wird auf die beiden Druckschriften WO 01/66875 und WO 01/66876 mit weiteren Nachweisen des Standes der Technik verwiesen. An example is the two publications WO 01/66875 and WO 01/66876 with further evidence of the status of Technology referred.

Die bisher bekannten Paneelen dienen dazu, den Fußboden von Räumen mit gleichmäßigen Verlegemustern auszulegen, wobei die eingesetzten Paneelen jeweils die gleichen Abmessungen aufweisen. Somit können an jeder Stelle innerhalb der auszulegenden Fläche die gleichen Paneelen eingesetzt werden, um die einheitliche Oberfläche zu erstellen.The panels known so far serve to cover the floor of To design rooms with uniform laying patterns, whereby the panels used have the same dimensions exhibit. Thus, at any point within the the same panels are used to create the unified interface.

Darüber hinaus ist es auch bekannt, Paneele mit gleichen Abmessungen, aber mit unterschiedlichen Dekoren zu verwenden, um abwechselnde Muster zu verlegen. Jedoch sind die somit erzeugten Muster in ihrer Variabilität begrenzt, da die Paneelen immer gleiche Abmessungen aufweisen.In addition, it is also known to use panels with the same Dimensions, but with different decors too use to lay alternate patterns. However are the variability of the resulting patterns is limited, because the panels always have the same dimensions.

Der Erfindung liegt daher das technische Problem zugrunde, ein Fußbodensystem anzugeben, bei dem die eingesetzten Paneelen eine größere Vielfalt des erzeugten Verlegemusters ermöglichen.The invention is therefore based on the technical problem specify a flooring system in which the used Panels a greater variety of the laying pattern produced enable.

Das zuvor aufgezeigte technische Problem wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Fußbodensystem mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 dadurch gelöst, daß die Längen der Seitenkanten der Paneelen jeweils einem ganzzahligen Vielfachen einer Grundlänge entsprechen und daß mindestens zwei Paneelentypen mit unterschiedlichen Paneelen vorgesehen sind, wobei die unterschiedlichen Paneelen verschiedene Längen an zumindest einem Paar von Seitenkanten aufweisen.The technical problem outlined above will according to the invention by a floor system with the features of claim 1 solved in that the lengths of the Side edges of the panels each an integer Multiples correspond to a basic length and that at least two types of panels with different panels are provided, the different panels different lengths on at least one pair of Have side edges.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden hauptsächlich anhand von rechteckigen Paneelen dargestellt, jedoch ist die Erfindung nicht darauf beschränkt. Es sind ebenfalls mehreckige miteinander zu einem Muster verbindbare Paneelen geeignet, die Erfindung zu realisieren.The invention is mainly based on rectangular panels are shown, however, the invention not limited to that. They are also polygonal suitable panels that can be connected to each other in a pattern, to implement the invention.

Erfindungsgemäß ist daher erkannt worden, daß allein durch eine größere Variabilität der Abmessungen der Paneelen ein Verlegemuster erzeugt werden kann, das sich in besonderer Weise von den bisher im Stand der Technik erreichbaren Mustern unterscheidet. Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Fußbodensystem können regelmäßige und unregelmäßige Verlegemuster durch die unterschiedlichen Seitenkantenlängen erzeugt werden, die so nur in sehr aufwendiger Form durch separates Zurechtschneiden der aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Paneelen hergestellt werden konnte.According to the invention it has therefore been recognized that only by a greater variability in the dimensions of the panels Laying patterns can be generated that are special Way of those previously achievable in the prior art Patterns differs. With the invention Floor system can be regular and irregular Laying pattern through the different Side edge lengths are generated that are only in very complex shape by cutting the panels known in the art are manufactured could.

In besonders bevorzugter Weise weisen die unterschiedlichen Paneelen verschiedene Längen an beiden Paaren von Seitenkanten auf. Somit unterscheiden sich die beiden unterschiedlichen Paneelentypen in ihrer Form erheblich, so daß sich allein aus dem Verlegemuster die Variabilität ergibt. An keinen der beiden zur Verfügung stehenden Seitenkantenpaare besteht eine Übereinstimmung in den Abmessungen.In a particularly preferred manner, the different ones Panels of different lengths on both pairs of Side edges. So the two differ different types of panels in their form considerably, so that variability arises solely from the laying pattern results. None of the two available There is a match in the side edge pairs in the Dimensions.

Weitere bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der vorliegenden Erfindung bestehen darin, die Anzahl der verschiedenen Paneelentypen größer als zwei zu wählen. Je größer die Anzahl ist, desto variabler werden die Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten beim Verlegen der Paneelen. Further preferred embodiments of the present Invention is the number of different Choose panel types larger than two. The bigger the Number, the more variable they become Design options when laying the panels.

Eine Weiterentwicklung der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, daß die mindestens zwei verschiedenen Paneelentypen Paneelen mit unterschiedlich ausgestalteten Oberseiten aufweisen. Somit wird der optische Eindruck der Variabilität der unterschiedlichen Paneelentypen stärker hervorgehoben. Das Aussehen des verlegten Fußbodensystems kann fast beliebig gewählt werden.A further development of the present invention exists in that the at least two different types of panels Panels with differently designed tops exhibit. Thus, the visual impression of the Variability of the different panel types stronger highlighted. The appearance of the installed flooring system can be chosen almost arbitrarily.

In weiter bevorzugter Weise ist mindestens ein Paneelentyp mit auf den Oberseiten angebrachten lesbaren Zeichen versehen. Dadurch ist es möglich, in einem ersten Verlegemuster, das beispielsweise aus Paneelen eines Paneelentyps besteht, ein weiteres Verlegemuster einzubinden, das eine Beschriftung darstellt. Dieses Fußbodensystem kann insbesondere in öffentlichen Gebäuden eingesetzt werden, wobei auf dem Fußboden Hinweise und Wegweiser eingebracht werden können.In a further preferred manner, at least one type of panel is with legible signs on the top Mistake. This makes it possible in a first Laying pattern, which for example consists of a panel Panel type, another installation pattern to include, which is a label. This Flooring system can be particularly useful in public buildings are used, notes on the floor and Signposts can be introduced.

Wie bereits eingangs der Beschreibung erläutert worden ist, sind Paneelen mit Verbindungsmitteln bekannt, die als mechanisch verriegelnde Nut-Feder-Verbindungen ausgebildet sind. Somit kann das Fußbodensystem verlegt werden, ohne daß die Paneelen miteinander dauerhaft verbunden werden.As has already been explained at the beginning of the description, panels with connecting means are known as mechanically locking tongue and groove connections are. The floor system can thus be installed without that the panels are permanently connected to each other.

Daneben ist es selbstverständlich möglich, daß die Verbindungsmittel als zu verleimende Nut-Feder-Verbindungen ausgebildet sind. Diese herkömmliche Verlegeweise kann also genauso eingesetzt werden, wie die zuvor beschriebene mechanische Verriegelung.In addition, it is of course possible that the Lanyards as tongue and groove connections to be glued are trained. This conventional method of laying can can be used exactly as the one previously described mechanical locking.

Bei einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung, die an sich unabhängig von den zuvor beschriebenen Ausführungsformen ist und daher auch separat beansprucht werden kann, besteht in der Integration von Leuchtmitteln in mindestens einer der Paneelen des Fußbodensystems. Somit können ein oder mehrere Lichtquellen in den Fußboden integriert werden, die als Hinweise Informationen vermitteln oder rein als gestalterische Elemente eingesetzt werden. Das Erscheinungsbild gerade von großflächigen Böden in Geschäften und Bürogebäuden kann somit individuell und je nach Bedarf gestaltet werden. In Kombination mit dem zuvor beschriebenen System von Paneelen mit unterschiedlichen variablen Abmessungen wird das Fußbodensystem daher weiter in vorteilhafter Weise verbessert.In a further embodiment of the present Invention, in itself, independent of the previous ones described embodiments is and therefore also separately can be claimed consists of the integration of Illuminants in at least one of the panels of the Floor system. Thus one or more light sources to be integrated into the floor as indications Communicate information or purely as design Elements are used. The appearance of large floors in shops and office buildings can be designed individually and as required. In Combination with the system of panels described above with different variable dimensions Floor system therefore further advantageously improved.

Bevorzugt ist, dass das Leuchtelement mindestens eine punktförmige Leuchtquelle und/oder mindestens eine flächige Leuchtquelle aufweist. Die punktförmigen Leuchtquellen sind weiter bevorzugt als Leuchtdioden ausgebildet, während die flächigen Leuchtquellen mit Leuchtdioden ausgeleuchtet werden. Mehrere punktformige Leuchtquellen können als Muster angeordnet werden, aus dem sich entweder Informationen als Buchstaben, Zahlen oder Piktogramme ableiten lassen oder das als rein gestalterische Element wirkt.It is preferred that the lighting element has at least one punctiform light source and / or at least one flat Has light source. The punctiform light sources are further preferably designed as LEDs, while the flat light sources illuminated with light-emitting diodes become. Several point-shaped light sources can be used as Patterns can be arranged from which either Information as letters, numbers or pictograms can be derived or as a purely design element acts.

Weiterhin ist es bevorzugt, dass die mindestens eine Paneele einen Einbaurahmen zur Aufnahme des Leuchtelementes aufweist. Dieser Einbaurahmen ist mit der Paneele verbunden, indem eine entsprechende Aussparung in der Paneele eingebracht wird, in die wiederum der Einbaurahmen einfach und schnell eingebaut werden kann. Somit kann eine Standardisierung für den Einbau verschiedenen Leuchtelemente geschaffen werden, die auch für einen nachträglichen Umbau oder Ersatz von Leuchtelementen genutzt werden kann.It is further preferred that the at least one Panels an installation frame for receiving the light element having. This mounting frame is with the panels connected by a corresponding recess in the Panels are inserted, in turn the mounting frame can be installed easily and quickly. Thus a Standardization for the installation of various Illuminated elements are created that also for one subsequent conversion or replacement of lighting elements can be used.

The second panel 102 is on their intended position and the first panels 101 in the direction perpendicular to the side edges 105 and 106 Panels 102 shifted until a firm resistance is noticeable. Then using a tapping block, the on the edge opposite the first side edge 105 the first panels 101 is applied by means of impact force engaged the two profiles.

    Daneben kann das Verlegung auch umgekehrt erfolgen, indem in der Ausgangsposition die erste Paneele 101 sich an ihrer vorgegebenen Position befindet und die zweite Paneele 102 relativ dazu bewegt wird, bis ein fester Widerstand spürbar ist. Der Schlagklotz wird dann an der der zweiten Seitenkante 106 gegenüberliegenden Seitenkante angelegt.In addition, the laying can also be done in reverse, by in the starting position the first panels 101 are attached to their predetermined position and the second panels 102 is moved relative to it until a firm resistance is felt is. The tapping block then becomes the second Side edge 106 created opposite side edge.

    In den Fig. 5 bis 7 sind Ausführungsbeispiele für in die Paneelen integrierte Leuchtelemente dargestellt, in im folgenden beschreiben werden.5 to 7 are embodiments for in Panels integrated lighting elements shown in in will be described below.

    Fig. 5 zeigt eine Paneele 2 im Querschnitt mit einem integrierten Leuchtelement 50. Das Leuchtelement 50 weist eine obere zumindest teilweise transparente Abdeckung 52, einen daran angrenzenden oberen Gehäuseteil 54 einem unteren Gehäuse 56 sowie eine Lichtquelle 58 zum Ausleuchten der Abdeckung 52 auf. Zusammen bilden die Abdeckung 52, das Gehäuseteil 54, das Gehäuse 56 und die Lichtquelle 58 das Leuchtelement 50, das in einen mit dem Paneel 2 verbundenen Einbaurahmen 60 eingesetzt werden kann. Mit Hilfe des Einbaurahmens 60 wird also das Leuchtelement 50 mit dem Paneel 2 verbunden, so dass die Integration in das beschriebene Fußbodensystem über die Paneele 2 verwirklicht wird. Mit anderen Worten, die Paneele 2 ist der Träger des Leuchtelementes 50 und verbindet und integriert somit dieses mit den weiteren Paneelen des Fußbodensystems.Fig. 5 shows a panel 2 in cross section with a integrated lighting element 50. The lighting element 50 has an upper at least partially transparent cover 52, an adjacent upper housing part 54 a lower housing 56 and a light source 58 for Illuminate the cover 52 on. Together they form Cover 52, the housing part 54, the housing 56 and the Light source 58, the lighting element 50, which in one with the Panel 2 connected mounting frame 60 are used can. So with the help of the mounting frame 60 Luminous element 50 connected to the panel 2, so that the Integration in the flooring system described above Panels 2 is realized. In other words, the Panels 2 is the support of the lighting element 50 and connects and integrates this with the others Panels of the floor system.

    Bei dem zuvor beschriebenen Leuchtelement 50 handelt es sich somit um eine flächige Leuchtquelle, in deren Abdeckung Symbole, Buchstaben, Zahlen oder andere Muster eingebracht werden können, um Hinweise oder Informationen zu vermitteln. The lighting element 50 described above is concerned thus a flat light source, in the Cover symbols, letters, numbers or other patterns can be brought in for clues or information to convey.

    Bei dem in Fig. 6 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel handelt es sich um ein Leuchtelement 50', bei dem mehrere punktförmige Leuchtquellen integriert sind. Diese weisen einzelne kleinere Abdeckungen 52' auf, die in einem oberen Gehäuseteil 54' integriert sind, das entsprechende Aussparungen aufweist. Auch hier ist ein Gehäuse 56 vorgesehen, das das Leuchtelement 50' nach unten hin abschließt. Weiterhin sind Lichtquellen 58' in Form von Leuchtdioden oder kleinen Glühbirnen innerhalb des Gehäuses 56 angeordnet, die jeweils die Abdeckungen 52' von unten ausleuchten. Es ist ebenso möglich, die Lichtquellen 58' ohne Abdeckungen 52' nach oben sichtbar in dem Leuchtelement zu integrieren. Auch das Leuchtelement 50' wird wie das Leuchtelement 50 in einen Einbaurahmen 60 eingesetzt, der mit dem Paneel 2 fest verbunden ist.In the embodiment shown in Fig. 6 acts it is a lighting element 50 ', in which several punctiform light sources are integrated. These point individual smaller covers 52 'on an upper Housing part 54 'are integrated, the corresponding Has recesses. Here too is a housing 56 provided that the lighting element 50 'downwards concludes. Furthermore, light sources 58 'are in the form of LEDs or small light bulbs inside the housing 56 arranged, each of the covers 52 'from below illuminate. It is also possible to use the light sources 58 ' without covers 52 'visible upwards in the Integrate lighting element. The lighting element 50 ' is like the light element 50 in a mounting frame 60th used, which is firmly connected to the panel 2.

    Sollten die Paneelen direkt auf dem Untergrund verlegt werden, also ohne Unterlagsmatte, dann können die Kabel in den sich zwischen den Paneelenkanten an der Unterseite ausbildenden Spalten angeordnet werden. Ein derartiger Spalt ist beispielsweise in Fig. 4 deutlich zu erkennen.Should the panels be laid directly on the substrate without a mat, then the cables can be in between the panel edges on the bottom forming columns can be arranged. Such one Gap can be clearly seen, for example, in FIG. 4.

    Der Einbau der Leuchtelemente 50 bzw. 50' erfolgt vorzugsweise nach der Verlegung der Paneelen des Fußbodensystems, indem das Leuchtelement 50 bzw. 50' in den Einbaurahmen 60 eingesetzt und an die Stromversorgung angeschlossen wird. Die dazu erforderlichen Kabel werden vor der Verlegung der Paneelen auf dem Untergrund ausgelegt und ggf. befestigt, so dass die Paneelen darauf verlegt werden können. Die Paneelen werden in der Regel mit einer elastischen isolierenden Unterlagsmatte verlegt, die entweder separat ausgelegt oder bereits werkseitig mit den Paneelen verbunden wird. In diese elastische Unterlagsmatte können sich die Kabel entweder von oben oder von unten eindrücken, so dass keine Unebenheiten bei den verlegten Paneelen auftreten.The lighting elements 50 and 50 'are installed preferably after laying the panels of the Floor system by the lighting element 50 or 50 'in the Installation frame 60 inserted and connected to the power supply is connected. The cables required for this will be before laying the panels on the sub-floor and if necessary fastened so that the panels are laid on it can be. The panels are usually made with one elastic insulating underlay mat that laid either designed separately or already with the factory Panels is connected. In this elastic underlay mat the cables can either be from above or from below press in, so that no unevenness in the laid Panels appear.

    Bei Bodenunebenheiten kann man die Leuchtelemente 50, 50' von unten ebenfalls mit einer elastischen Schicht, beispielsweise aus Silikon, versehen. Dadurch kann vermieden werden, dass ein Durchdrücken der Leuchtelemente bei einer mechanischen Belastung und die damit verbundenen Bewegungen auf Dauer unterbunden werden.In the event of uneven floors, the lighting elements 50, 50 ' also from below with an elastic layer, made of silicone, for example. This can avoid that the lighting elements are pushed through with a mechanical load and the associated Movements are permanently prevented.
