Definitions
- the invention relates to a panel element with a useful side, a counter-pull opposite to the useful side, a first side with a tongue, a second side opposite the first side with a groove constructed in a manner opposite to the tongue, the tongue having a connecting element which is essentially perpendicular to the
- the useful side extends and the cross section of which has a first flank and a second flank opposite the first flank, the cross section of the connecting element having a center line running perpendicular to the useful side.
- the tongue and groove connection is by a
- a panel element in which the spring on the end face of the panel element has a hook element with an approximately circular cross-section and the ⁇ ut has an opposite recess.
- a disadvantage of the tongue-and-groove joint according to DE 100 01 076 Cl is that a high force is required to connect the tongue to the ⁇ ut, which is why it is easy to damage the panel element, in particular the ⁇ utzseite and / or the Edges of the depression, may come. If the edges of the recess are damaged, the ⁇ ut-spring connection often has only a slight hold, which can result in undesired loosening of the ⁇ ut-spring connection when the panel element is stressed.
- FR 2 278 876 A discloses a panel element with a spring, which a
- Has hook element in the form of a dovetail wherein a flank of the dovetail is perpendicular to the ⁇ utzseite.
- the ⁇ ut also has a hook element in the form of a dovetail, one flank of the dovetail being perpendicular to the counter pull.
- a disadvantage of the panel element of FR 2 278 876 A is that a contact point is formed only on one side of the hook element in the tongue-and-groove connection, so that the tongue-and-groove connection is not free of play due to manufacturing tolerances and against a climate-related dimensional change of the tongue there is little resistance.
- WO 01/02670 A1 shows a panel element with a spring which has the shape of a dovetail, one flank of the dovetail being perpendicular to the decorative side.
- the groove also has the shape of a dovetail, one flank of the dovetail being perpendicular to the counter pull.
- Another disadvantage of the panel element according to WO 01/02670 is that a contact point is formed only on one side of the tongue or groove in the tongue and groove connection, so that the tongue and groove connection is not free of play due to manufacturing tolerances.
- the tongue and groove connection has only little resistance, in particular to a climate-related change in dimension of the tongue and / or the slot, since the tongue can twist relative to the slot.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a panel element of the type mentioned, in which the known disadvantages are avoided, which allows a play-free tongue and groove connection, has a high resistance to a climate-related dimensional change of the tongue and in which the for the manufacture of The tongue and groove connection required forces are as low as possible.
- this is achieved in that - seen in the direction from the useful side (the top side visible in the installed state) - in a first section of the connecting element the inclination of the first flank and the second flank each point outwards from the center line and in a second section the slope of the first flank points outwards from the center line and the slope of the second flank points towards the center line, the distance perpendicular to the center line between the first flank and the second flank being reduced.
- This configuration results in the advantage that when the tongue and groove connection for the first flank and the second flank is made, the latching resistance has its maximum at different times, as a result of which the required force and the risk of damage to the panel element according to the invention is reduced. Furthermore, due to this splitting of the latching resistors, the inclination on the two flanks of the connecting element in the first section can point outwards from the center line, so that a dovetail connection is provided in which at least one contact point is formed on each of the two flanks, as a result of which the groove is held well Spring connection against forces and moments which act essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the spring is achieved. Due to the splitting of the maximum of the latching resistances, a greater inclination can be chosen on the two flanks and the Risk of damage to the panel element due to the force required to produce the tongue and groove connection can be kept low.
- the first flank is arranged on the side of the connecting element facing away from the panel element. A larger contact point can be formed on the first flank, thereby
- the inclination of the first flank and the inclination of the second flank are essentially constant in the first section.
- This design corresponds to a conventional dovetail connection in the first section, which is easy to manufacture and results in an even stress distribution at the contact points.
- the first flank in the first section has a lower inclination than the second flank.
- the inclination is an essential measure of the stresses that can be transmitted between the groove and the tongue, normal to the decor side, whereby with a greater inclination, larger stresses can be transmitted without the tongue and groove connection being released.
- larger voltages can be transmitted on the second flank normally to the decorative side than on the first flank, as a result of which the transmissible forces can be increased on a given contact surface on the second flank.
- the inclination of the first flank in the second section is essentially constant and is the same size as the inclination of the first flank in the first section. This results in an easy-to-produce profile on the first flank, in which the latching resistance decreases continuously during the production of the tongue and groove connection.
- the second flank is rounded in the second section.
- the rounded embodiment reduces the risk of voltage peaks due to a notch effect.
- the groove is a
- Connection between the connecting element and the recess can be achieved by means of an adhesive.
- the groove can have a further glue channel, the further glue channel being arranged adjacent to the end face of the tongue in the connected state of the tongue and groove connection. If the tongue and groove connection is glued in the further glue channel by means of an adhesive, it has a particularly high resistance to a climate-related change in dimension of the end face of the tongue. Furthermore, the penetration of moisture into the area of the connecting element is prevented.
- a continuous gap is formed in the region of the end face of the groove, which gap extends between the tongue and the groove up to the second contact point.
- the formation of the gap can ensure that the tongue-and-groove connection rests in the end area of the tongue and normal forces can be transmitted directly to the groove in the front area of the tongue, thereby reducing the risk of damaging the tongue.
- the sides can be treated, at least in regions, with a hydrophobic agent, in particular sprayed, coated or the like.
- the panel element according to the invention remains dimensionally stable even when moisture penetrates.

- a tongue 2 and / or a groove 3 is also provided on each of the long sides 15, 16, the tongue on one of the long sides 15, 16 being configured differently than the tongue 2 on the first side 13.
- the spring 2 is formed on one of the long sides.
- FIG. 2 shows the cross section of an embodiment of the panel element according to the invention, the cross section being normal to the longitudinal direction of the spring 2. Viewed in the direction from the useful side 11, the inclination of the first flank 41 and the second flank 42 in a first section 45 of the connecting element 4 points outward from the center line 44. In a second section 46, viewed in the direction from the useful side, the inclination of the first flank 41 outwards from the center line 44 and the inclination of the second flank 42 to the center line 44, the distance perpendicular to the center line between the first flank 41 and the second edge 42 is reduced.
- FIG. 4 shows detail A of the cross-sectional illustration according to FIG. 2, the first section 45 and the second section 46 being highlighted by dashed lines.
- the inclination of the first flank 41 and the inclination of the second flank 42 are essentially constant in the first section 45.
- the connecting element 4 points in the first Section 45 has the shape of a classic dovetail with flanks 41, 42 widening from a root region 43 of the connecting element 4.
- the first flank 41 also has an essentially constant one in the second section 46
- Sections 45,46 lying area is easy to manufacture.
- the second flank 42 can be rounded in the second section 46, as a result of which simple insertion of the second flank 42 of the tongue 2 into the groove 3 is ensured.
- the groove 3 has a recess 5 which is of the same design as the connecting element 4.
- FIG. 3 The tongue and groove connection of the embodiment of the panel element according to the invention according to FIG. 2 is shown in FIG. 3.
- the tongue 2 is moved and / or tilted perpendicular to the useful side against the groove 3, the first flank 41 first touching a first edge 51 of the depression 5.
- a first latching resistance having to be overcome, which has its maximum value when the first flank 41 strikes the first edge 51.
- the second flank 42 does not touch the second edge 52 of the depression opposite the first edge 51, which is why no latching resistance occurs on the second flank 42 in this position.
- the second flank 42 After overcoming the maximum of the first latching resistance on the first flank 41, the second flank 42 approaches the second edge 52 during further movement until it touches it and a second latching resistance occurs on the second flank 42, the maximum of the second latching resistance does not occur simultaneously with the maximum of the first latching resistor, so that the force required to produce the tongue and groove connection is less than the sum of the maximum of the first latching resistor and the maximum of the second latching resistor.
- the force required to produce the tongue and groove connection which is transverse to
- Laying level can be applied to a tapping block with a hammer.
- the arrangement of the panels according to the invention is releasable without play, seamless and non-destructive.
- a first reference surface 53 that runs parallel to the usable surface 11 and has the same vertical distance from the usable surface 11 as the opposite one, formed on the spring-side end face 13, to the useful surface 11 parallel, second reference surface 22, which is arranged in the installed state on the underside of the spring 2 between the end face 21 and the flank 41. In the connected state, the spring 2 rests on the edge 53.
- a first contact point 61 is formed on the first flank 41 and a second contact point 62 is formed on the second flank 42, each of which is indicated in FIG. 3 by a point.
- the force that can be transmitted by one of the contact points 61, 62 perpendicular to the useful surface 11 is proportional to the surface of the contact point 61, 62 and the inclination of the flank 41, 42 of the connecting element 4 on the side of the contact point 61, 62.
- the first flank 41 in the first section 45 has a lower inclination than the second flank 42, as a result of which the magnitude of the forces of the contact points 61, 62 which can be transmitted perpendicular to the useful surface 11 are approximated kömien.
- a gap 8 extending between the tongue 2 and the groove 3 to the second contact point 62 is formed in the region of the end face 31 of the groove 3. This can ensure that the end face 21 of the spring lies in the area of the useful side 11 without gaps on the useful side 11 of the adjacent panel element according to the invention, wherein manufacturing-related tolerances can be compensated for by the gap 8. Furthermore, it can be ensured that the tongue and groove connection rests in the area of the end face 21 of the tongue 2 and normal forces can be transmitted to the useful side 11 in the face area of the tongue 2 directly to the groove 3 and an underlying floor, so that no bending moments occur in the spring and the risk of damage to the spring 2 is low.
- the contact point 61 essentially counteracts this movement.
- the first flank 41 is arranged on the side of the connecting element 4 facing away from the panel element, since the first contact point 61 can be made larger than the second contact point 62 and therefore lower stresses occur under a given load.
- the contact point also counteracts a climate-related change in dimension of the spring.
- a particularly durable and resilient tongue and groove connection can be achieved if the tongue 2 is glued to the groove 3.
- a first glue channel 71 can be formed in the area of the depression 5 facing the counter-pull 12.
- the glue channel 71 extends over the entire width of the cross section of the depression 5.
- a region of the depression 5 can also be designed to be recessed and form the glue channel 71.
- the groove 3 can have a further glue channel 72, the further glue channel 72 being arranged adjacent to the end face 21 of the tongue 2 in the connected state of the tongue and groove connection. Adhesion of the tongue 2 to the groove 3 in the area of the further glue channel 72 results in a particularly high resistance to a climate-related dimensional change of the end face 21 of the tongue 2. Furthermore, the penetration of moisture into the area of the connecting element 4 is prevented.
- a long durability of the panel element according to the invention and the connection according to the invention can be achieved if the sides 13, 14, 15, 16 are treated, at least in regions, with a hydrophobic agent, in particular sprayed, coated or the like.
