Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verkleidungsplatte gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a cladding panel according to the preamble of claim 1.

In der GB 1593281 sind dünne, tapetenartige Dekormaterialien mit Linienmustern in Form von Eckelementen und geraden Bahnen, die von einer Rolle abgelängt werden können, beschrieben. Zur Dekoration einer Decke eines Raumes werden zuerst in den Ecken des Raumes vier Eckelemente aufgeklebt und dann gegebenenfalls vier entsprechend von der Rolle abgelängte gerade Bahnen des Tapetenmaterials aufgeklebt. Die Anordnung der geraden Bahnen erfolgt entlang der Kante zwischen Decke und Wand, sodass die Linien ein kontinuierliches Muster ergeben.In GB 1593281 thin, wallpaper-like decorative materials with line patterns in the form of corner elements and straight tracks, which can be cut to length from a roll, are described. To decorate a ceiling of a room four corner elements are first glued in the corners of the room and then optionally glued four appropriately cut from the role of straight webs of wallpaper material. The arrangement of the straight tracks takes place along the edge between the ceiling and the wall so that the lines give a continuous pattern.

Verkleidungsplatten für Böden, Wände oder Decken, wobei auf den längsverlaufenden Seitenflächen der Verkleidungsplatte Verbindungs- bzw. Verriegelungselemente (z.B. Nuten und Federn) ausgebildet sind, die längs der beiden parallelen Längsseitenkanten der Verkleidungsplatte unterschiedlich bzw. zueinander komplementär ausgebildet sind, sodaß mit unterschiedlichen Verriegelungselementen ausgebildete Längsseitenkanten von zwei Verkleidungsplatten miteinander verbindbar bzw. zusammenfügbar sind, sind bekannt, vgl. z.B. DE-A-42 15 273.Cladding panels for floors, walls or ceilings, wherein on the longitudinal side surfaces of the cladding panel connection or locking elements (eg grooves and springs) are formed, which are formed along the two parallel longitudinal side edges of the cladding plate different or complementary to each other, so formed with different locking elements Longitudinal side edges of two cladding panels can be connected or joined together, are known, cf. e.g. DE-A-42 15 273.

Ziel der Erfindung ist es, die Verlegung der Verkleidungsplatten bzw. das Zusammenfügen von einzelnen Verkleidungsplatten zu einer Verkleidungsfläche zu vereinfachen. Die dazu zu setzenden Maßnahmen sollen möglichst einfach und wenig aufwendig auf den Verkleidungsplatten auszubilden sein. Außerdem soll einer derartigen Verkleidungsplatte ein optisch ansprechendes und die Konsumenten beeindruckendes Aussehen verliehen werden.The aim of the invention is to simplify the laying of the cladding panels or the joining of individual cladding panels to a cladding surface. The measures to be taken should be as simple and inexpensive to form on the cladding panels. In addition, such a cladding panel should be given a visually appealing and consumers impressive appearance.

Erfindungsgemäß ist eine Verkleidungsplatte der eingangs genannten Art durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruches 1 angeführten Merkmale charakterisiert.According to the invention a cladding panel of the type mentioned is characterized by the features cited in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Die technische Wirkung des erfindungsgemäßen Anspruchs 1 ist die, dass durch die Anbringung eines Streifens auf der Sichtfläche der Verkleidungsplatte dem unkundigen Benutzer eine Anleitung und Hilfestellung zum Verlegen gegeben wird. Dadurch wird es einem Laien ermöglicht, die Verkleidungsplatten in der Ebene richtig zueinander anzuordnen und korrekt zu verlegen.The technical effect of claim 1 according to the invention is that by providing a strip on the visible surface of the cladding panel the unskilled user is given guidance and assistance for laying. This makes it possible for a layman to arrange the cladding panels in the plane correctly to each other and to lay correctly.

Durch Ausbildung eines dunkleren Streifens können insbesondere bei Verkleidungsplatten, die an ihren Seitenflächen mit zusammenwirkenden Verbindungselementen versehen sind, die Verlegearbeiten vereinfacht werden, da bei der Verlegung lediglich eine Seitenkante ohne einen derartigen Streifen an eine Seitenkante mit einem derartigen Streifen angefügt werden muss, sodass ein aufwendiges Untersuchen der Verkleidungsplatten, welche Kante einer Verkleidungsplatte mit welcher Kante einer anderen Verkleidungsplatte zu verbinden ist, entfällt.By forming a darker strip, laying work can be simplified, in particular with cladding panels which are provided on their side surfaces with cooperating connecting elements, since only one side edge without such a strip must be attached to a side edge with such a strip during installation, so that a complex Examine the cladding panels, which edge of a cladding panel is to be connected to which edge of another cladding panel deleted.

Somit kennzeichnet der Streifen die Position des Verbindungs- bzw. Verriegelungselementes und der Benutzer erkennt auf den ersten Blick, mit welchen Seitenflächen die einzelnen Verkleidungsplatten verbindbar sind bzw. wie diese angeordnet werden müssen. Damit kann schneller und effektiver gearbeitet werden.Thus, the strip indicates the position of the connecting or locking element and the user recognizes at a glance with which side surfaces the individual cladding panels are connectable or how they must be arranged. This can be worked faster and more effective.

Die Verkleidungsplatten müssen üblicherweise vor Ort zugeschnitten werden, um sich den räumlichen Gegebenheiten anzupassen. Um die Platten zuschneiden zu können, muss die Verkleidungsplatte üblicherweise vom unmittelbaren Verlegungsort weg zum Abschneideort gebracht werden. Dabei besteht die Gefahr, dass die Verkleidungsplatte unbewusst gedreht wird und anschließend an der falschen Seite abgelängt wird. Dies kann beim anschließenden Verlegen zu Schwierigkeiten führen, wenn beispielsweise ein an einer Breitseite vorgesehenes Verriegelungselement nicht mehr zur Verfügung steht. Durch die Ausbildung des Streifens wird diesem Fehler vorgebeugt, da sich der Benutzer an der Position des Streifens orientieren kann.The cladding panels usually have to be cut on site to adapt to the spatial conditions. In order to be able to cut the panels, the trim panel usually needs to be moved away from the immediate installation location to the cut-off location. There is a risk that the cladding panel is unconsciously rotated and then cut to the wrong side. This can lead to difficulties during subsequent installation, for example, if a provided on a broadside locking element is no longer available. The formation of the strip avoids this error because the user can orient themselves at the position of the strip.

Des Weiteren verleiht der vorgesehene dunklere Streifen bei zusammengefügten Verkleidungsplatten den Eindruck, als ob zwischen den zusammengefügten Verkleidungsplatten bzw. längs des Stoßes eine Vertiefung ausgebildet wäre bzw. die an sich ebene Fläche mit einer Nut versehen wäre. Dieser neben der technischen Wirkung zusätzlich auftretende ästhetische bzw. optische Eindruck entsteht durch den längsverlaufenden, dunkler ausgebildeten Streifen, der in Abstand von der Stoßkante der Sichtflächen von zwei zusammengefügten Verkleidungsplatten ausgebildet ist.Furthermore, the intended darker strip in the case of assembled cladding panels gives the impression that a depression would be formed between the assembled cladding panels or along the joint, or that the flat surface would be provided with a groove. This addition to the technical effect additionally occurring aesthetic or visual impression is created by the longitudinal, darker stripes formed at a distance from the abutting edge of the visible surfaces of two assembled cladding panels.

Die Verbindungs- bzw. Verriegelungselemente, die gewählt werden, um erfindungsgemäße Verkleidungsplatten miteinander verbinden zu können, sind längs des Umfangs der Verkleidungsplatte, insbesondere längs der Längsseitenflächen, ausgebildet. Diese Verbindungselemente können beliebige Form aufweisen; derartige Verbindungs- bzw. Verriegelungselemente sind dem Fachmann wohl bekannt. Diese Verbindungselemente sollen die Verkleidungsplatten längs ihrer Längsseitenkanten und gegebenenfalls auch längs ihrer Querseitenflächen zusammenhalten, um ein fest verbundenes Gefüge der Verkleidungsplatten zu erreichen.The connecting or locking elements, which are selected to be able to connect together trim panels according to the invention, are formed along the circumference of the trim panel, in particular along the longitudinal side surfaces. These connecting elements can have any shape; Such connecting or locking elements are well known to the skilled person. These fasteners should hold together the cladding panels along their longitudinal side edges and possibly also along their transverse side surfaces in order to achieve a firmly connected structure of the cladding panels.

Ein besonders vorteilhaftes Aussehen erhalten die Verkleidungsplatten bzw. der optische Eindruck einer Nutausbildung wird verstärkt, wenn die Merkmale des Anspruches 2 vorgesehen sind. Auch die Merkmale der Ansprüche 3, 4 und 6 tragen zur Verstärkung dieses optischen Eindrucks bei.A particularly advantageous appearance get the cladding panels or the visual impression of a groove formation is reinforced when the features of claim 2 are provided. The features of claims 3, 4 and 6 contribute to the enhancement of this visual impression.

Zweckmäßig ist es, wenn der Grundwerkstoff der Verkleidungsplatte Holz, Holzwerkstoff, Medium Density Fibreboard bzw. mittelverdichtete Faserplatten (MDF), High Density Fibreboard bzw. hochverdichtete Faserplatten (HDF), mit Klebstoffen verbundene Holzspäne bzw. Faserplattenwerkstoff ist.It is expedient if the base material of the cladding board is wood, wood-based material, medium density fiberboard or medium-density fiberboard (MDF), high density fibreboard or high-density fibreboard (HDF), wood chips or fiberboard material associated with adhesives.

Von Vorteil ist es, wenn die Oberfläche und/oder Unterfläche der Verkleidungsplatte mit einer Echtholz- oder Laminatbeschichtung oder Kunststoffauflage versehen sind. Entsprechend der vorgesehenen Oberfläche kann die Ausbildung des dunkleren und/oder des helleren Streifens unterschiedlich erfolgen. Bei Echtholzböden bzw. Echtholzbeschichtungen könnte der dunklere und hellere Streifen durch entsprechendes Einbeizen bzw. Einfärben der Holzoberfläche erfolgen. Bei der Aufbringung von Laminatbeschichtungen auf die Oberfläche der Verkleidungsplatte könnten diese Laminatbeschichtungen mit Streifen vorbereitet und daraufhin mit dem Grundkörper der Verkleidungsplatte verbunden werden.It is advantageous if the surface and / or bottom surface of the cladding panel with a real wood or laminate coating or plastic pad are provided. Depending on the intended surface, the formation of the darker and / or the lighter stripe can take place differently. In real wood floors or real wood coatings, the darker and lighter stripes could be done by appropriate staining or coloring the wood surface. In applying laminate coatings to the surface of the trim panel, these laminate coatings could be prepared with strips and then bonded to the body of the trim panel.

Längs der Querseitenkanten, das heißt längs der Schmalseiten der rechteckigen Verkleidungsplatten, sind keine dunkleren oder helleren Streifen ausgebildet.Along the transverse side edges, that is along the narrow sides of the rectangular cladding panels, no darker or lighter stripes are formed.

Es versteht sich, dass die Bereiche des helleren und/oder dunkleren Streifens planeben mit der restlichen Sichtfläche ausgebildet sind, um beim Begehen den ebenen Verlauf der Oberfläche der Verkleidungsplatten nicht zu unterbrechen.It is understood that the areas of the lighter and / or darker strip are level with the rest of the visible surface, so as not to interrupt the level course of the surface of the cladding panels when walking.

Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der folgenden Beschreibung, den Patentansprüchen und der Zeichnung.Advantageous embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the following description, the claims and the drawings.

In der Zeichnung ist schematisch eine Verkleidungsplatte 1 in Draufsicht dargestellt, die mit einer weiteren Verkleidungsplatte 1' entlang der Längsseitenkanten 4, 4' zusammengefügt ist. Dazu sind an den Längsseitenflächen der Verkleidungsplatten 1, 1' Federn 5 und Nuten 6 ausgebildet, die aneinander angepasst sind und als Verriegelungselemente zusammengefügte Verkleidungsplatten 1, 1' zusammenhalten. Die Verkleidungsplatten 1, 1' weisen entlang ihrer längsverlaufenden Seitenkante 4 eine Feder 5 und auf der anderen längsverlaufenden Seitenkante 4' eine eine Feder 5 aufnehmende Nut 6 auf. Entlang einer der beiden Seitenkanten 4 oder 4' jeder Verkleidungsplatte 1, 1' verläuft in Längsrichtung ein Streifen 2, dessen Farbgebung dunkler gehalten ist als die Farbgebung der restlichen Sichtfläche 7 der Verkleidungsplatte 1, 1'.In the drawing, a cladding panel 1 is shown schematically in plan view, which is joined together with a further cladding panel 1 'along the longitudinal side edges 4, 4'. For this purpose, on the longitudinal side surfaces of the cladding panels 1, 1 'springs 5 and grooves 6 are formed, which are adapted to each other and together as locking elements cladding panels 1, 1' together. The cladding panels 1, 1 'have along their longitudinal side edge 4 a spring 5 and on the other longitudinal side edge 4' a groove 5 receiving groove 6. Along one of the two side edges 4 or 4 'of each cladding panel 1, 1' extends in the longitudinal direction of a strip 2, the coloring is kept darker than the color of the remaining visible surface 7 of the cladding panel 1, 1 '.

Dieser dunklere Streifen 2 verleiht der Verkleidungsplatte 1, 1' ein besonderes optisches Aussehen bzw. kann als Hilfsmittel für die Verlegung herangezogen werden, da zusammenfügbare Verkleidungsplatten 1, 1' an der dem dunklen Streifen 2 nahen Seite immer dasselbe Verriegelungselement 5 besitzen, das mit dem Verriegelungselement 6 zusammenwirkt, das parallel zur gegenüberliegenden Längskante 4' verläuft, die dem dunkleren Streifen 2 entfernt liegt.This darker strip 2 gives the cladding panel 1, 1 'a special visual appearance or can be used as an aid for laying, since joinable cladding panels 1, 1' on the dark strip 2 near side always have the same locking element 5, which with the Locking element 6 cooperates, which runs parallel to the opposite longitudinal edge 4 ', which is the darker strip 2 away.

Der Bereich zwischen dem dunkleren Streifen 2 und der Längsseitenkante 4 kann heller ausgebildet sein als die Farbtönung der restlichen Sichtfläche 7 der Verkleidungsplatte 1. Damit wird der optische Eindruck, der durch den dunkleren Streifen 2 erreicht wird, noch verstärkt.The area between the darker strip 2 and the longitudinal side edge 4 can be made brighter than the color of the remaining visible surface 7 of the cladding panel 1. This enhances the visual impression achieved by the darker strip 2.

Der dunklere Streifen 2 und/oder der hellere Streifen 3 können durch verschiedenartige Techniken ausgebildet werden. Dazu kommen vor allem Einfärben bzw. Pigmentieren oder Einsetzen, insbesondere beim Herstellungsvorgang einer Laminatoberfläche, in Frage.The darker strip 2 and / or the lighter strip 3 may be formed by various techniques. In addition, especially coloring or pigmentation or insertion, in particular during the production process of a laminate surface, in question.

Die Farbe der Sichtfläche 7 spielt keine Rolle bzw. kann beliebig gewählt werden, insbesondere werden Holzfarben gewählt. Der dunklere Streifen 2 und/oder hellere Streifen 3 können bevorzugt in demselben Farbton wie die Sichtfläche 7 gehalten sein oder davon abweichen.The color of the visible surface 7 does not matter or can be chosen arbitrarily, in particular wood colors are chosen. The darker strip 2 and / or lighter strips 3 may preferably be kept in the same color as the visible surface 7 or deviate therefrom.

In der Sichtfläche ausgebildete Strukturen und/oder Maserungen verlaufen bevorzugt in den Streifen 2 und/oder Streifen 3 weiter, könnten aber auch durch den Streifen 2 und/oder Streifen 3 unterbrochen werden, der (die) eine andere Oberflächenstruktur besitzen könnte(n).Structures and / or grains formed in the visible surface preferably continue in the strip 2 and / or strip 3, but could also be interrupted by the strip 2 and / or strip 3, which could have a different surface structure.

Die Begrenzungsränder des Streifens 2 verlaufen gerade.The boundary edges of the strip 2 are straight.

Auf der Sichtfläche 7 einer Verkleidungsplatte 1 ist lediglich ein einziger Streifen 2 ausgebildet. Die Helligkeit des Streifens 2 beträgt 30 bis 70 %, vorzugsweise 40 bis 60 %, der Helligkeit der Sichtfläche 7.On the visible surface 7 of a cladding panel 1, only a single strip 2 is formed. The brightness of the strip 2 is 30 to 70%, preferably 40 to 60%, of the brightness of the visible surface 7.
