Abstract

The device has an independent corner insert (10) including two triangular areas (Z1, Z2) with bases that are part of a peripheral outline of the insert and a third triangular area (Z3) with an inner base. A fourth triangular central area (Z4) slopes after laying and is located in a forward plane away from a corner area where successive walls and the floor meet. The central area constitutes a visible easy-to-access surface for cleaning and to dislodge and collect dust and other particles on a base of the central area. An independent claim is also included for a method of laying floor and wall coverings in reentrant corners.

Description

L'invention se rattache au secteur technique des revêtements de sols et murs à l'aide de matériaux en polychlorure de vinyle ou similaires.The invention relates to the technical field of floor and wall coverings using polyvinyl chloride materials or the like.

A la connaissance du demandeur, qui est un des Leaders en Europe dans la fabrication de ce type de revêtements de sols et murs, 1a pose de ces revêtements dans les parties d'angles rentrants s'effectue de la manière suivante en remontée de plinthe.To the knowledge of the applicant, who is one of the leaders in Europe in the manufacture of this type of floor and wall coverings, the laying of these coatings in the parts of re-entrant angles is carried out as follows in skirting up.

Un premier procédé qui est essentiellement exploité actuellement met en oeuvre les phases suivantes. Ce procédé est illustré figures 1 et 2 des dessins. On dispose le long de la ligne de jointement, entre le sol et les murs, un berceau (1) profilé en quart de cercle qui est fixé par collage, ou autre, par ses parties longitudinales d'extrémité, sur les faces en regard des parois de sols et de murs. Ensuite, le revêtement du sol est présenté dans la partie d'angle en la faisant remonter pour venir contre les parois verticales correspondantes du mur. Cela nécessite préalablement d'effectuer une opération de coupe du revêtement selon une ligne (2) à 45° dont la partie d'extrémité correspond au point de fond de la jonction, la ligne à 45° remontant jusqu'au niveau de l'extrémité supérieure longitudinale du revêtement. La formation de l'angle dans les deux plans successifs verticaux entraîne un effet de pliure, par excès de matière, et il faut, pour éviter les surépaisseurs, procéder empiriquement à des découpes de parois de matériaux en excès. Cette opération qui s'effectue in situ est loin d'être pratique. Il faut procéder ensuite à une opération de collage du revêtement du sol et en angle rentrant et à une opération de soudure des bords en regard de part et d'autre de la ligne à 45°. Cet enlèvement des parois en excès est nécessaire pour éviter, dans la zone considérée, des surépaisseurs. La difficulté est réelle et exige de l'opérateur une grande expertise car l'opération de coupe du revêtement pour supprimer les surépaisseurs est loin d'être facile à réaliser. Cette soudure à chaud, avec la dépose d'un cordon de soudure (3), part du point rentrant maximum et s'effectue le long de la ligne oblique. Une des difficultés rencontrées reste le contrôle de la qualité de soudure qui ne peut se faire qu'au plan visuel. En pratique, on a constaté qu'il suffit qu'il y ait une infime amorce de rupture pour que l'étanchéité ne soit pas effectuée.A first method which is essentially currently exploited implements the following phases. This process is illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 of the drawings. Along the joint line, between the floor and the walls, is arranged a quarter-circle cradle (1) which is fixed by gluing, or otherwise, by its longitudinal end portions, on the facing faces of the walls of floors and walls. Then, the floor covering is presented in the corner portion by raising it to come against the corresponding vertical walls of the wall. This requires prior to performing a cutting operation of the coating along a line (2) at 45 ° whose end portion corresponds to the bottom point of the junction, the line at 45 ° up to the level of the end longitudinal top of the coating. The formation of the angle in the two successive vertical planes causes a fold effect, by excess of material, and it is necessary, to avoid the extra thicknesses, to proceed empirically to wall cuts of excess materials. This operation is done in situ is far from practical. Then proceed to a bonding operation of the coating of the ground and at a re-entrant angle and at a welding operation of the opposite edges on either side of the 45 ° line. This removal of the excess walls is necessary to avoid, in the area considered, extra thicknesses. The difficulty is real and requires the operator a great expertise because the operation of cutting the coating to remove the extra thickness is far from easy to achieve. This hot weld, with the removal of a weld bead (3), starts from the maximum return point and takes place along the oblique line. One of the difficulties encountered is the control of the weld quality which can only be done visually. In practice, it has been found that it is sufficient that there is a small incipient break so that the seal is not performed.

Un autre problème réside dans le fait que l'opération de soudure dans les angles, à la roulette ou à la buse, peut entraîner, dans l'angle, une détérioration du revêtement, telle que, par exemple, de brûlures du revêtement avec l'apparition de déformations géométriques, renflements ou autres, avec un aspect visuel peu net.Another problem lies in the fact that the welding operation in the corners, the wheel or the nozzle, can cause, in the angle, a deterioration of the coating, such as, for example, burns of the coating with the appearance of geometric deformations, bulges or others, with a visual appearance not very clear.

Cette solution couramment exploitée, à défaut de solutions de substitution satisfaisantes, présente encore un autre inconvénient. Les parties d'angle sont considérées comme des nids à poussière et facilitant l'accumulation de poussières, détritus en tous genres, et sont donc des zones d'encrassement privilégiées. Or, les revêtements de sols et de murs du type décrits sont couramment utilisés dans des lieux publics et privés dans lesquels l'hygiène est une exigence totale. C'est le cas dans les hôpitaux par exemple. Les moyens et instruments de nettoyage, manuels ou mécanisés, utilisés du type brosses, balais, ne permettent pas d'assurer l'entretien complet car l'accès dans la partie finale d'angle n'est pas possible.This commonly used solution, in the absence of satisfactory substitution solutions, has yet another drawback. The corner parts are considered dust nests and facilitate the accumulation of dust, litter of all kinds, and are therefore preferred fouling areas. However, floor and wall coverings of the type described are commonly used in public and private places where hygiene is a total requirement. This is the case in hospitals for example. Means and cleaning tools, manual or mechanized, used brushes type, brushes, do not allow to ensure complete maintenance because access in the final corner is not possible.

Il apparaît donc que cette solution est peu pratique et présente de nombreux inconvénients.It therefore appears that this solution is impractical and has many disadvantages.

La démarche du demandeur a été, il y a une quinzaine d'années, de proposer une autre solution à partir d'éléments d'angles rapportés thermoformés, illustrée figure 3. Cette solution, qui apparaissait au départ séduisante, s'est révélée à l'usage peu pratique et a été abandonnée pour revenir à l'ancienne pratique. Cette seconde solution consistait ainsi à réaliser des éléments d'angle (4) en matière plastique avec des formes préétablies définitives s'adaptant parfaitement à la partie d'angle et à les coller contre les parties en regard du sol et des murs. En fait, la gestion et la logistique nécessaires à la fabrication et à la mise en place restaient lourdes à gérer. La verticalité et la perpendicularité des murs et parois de murs successifs par rapport au sol est loin d'être absolue en pratique et se posait ensuite, lors de la pré-pose, l'agencement de ces éléments d'angles thermoformés par rapport aux parois de murs. En outre, un autre inconvénient majeur résidait dans ce qu'il y avait perte d'uniformité entre les caractéristiques et décors des revêtements de sols avec les parties d'angles.The applicant's approach was, fifteen years ago, to propose another solution from thermoformed angles of angles, illustrated in Figure 3. This solution, which initially appeared attractive, proved to be the use impractical and was abandoned to return to the old practice. This second solution was thus to achieve plastic corner elements (4) with definite predetermined shapes perfectly adapting to the corner portion and to glue them against the parts facing the floor and walls. In fact, the management and logistics required for manufacturing and implementation remained cumbersome to manage. The verticality and perpendicularity of the walls and walls of successive walls relative to the ground is far from absolute in practice and was then posed, during the pre-laying, the arrangement of these angles elements thermoformed with respect to the walls of walls. In addition, another major disadvantage was that there was a loss of uniformity between the characteristics and decorations of the floor coverings with the corner portions.

Cette seconde technologie, qui a fait l'objet d'une exploitation par le demandeur lui-même, a été abandonnée car inexploitable industriellement.This second technology, which has been exploited by the applicant himself, has been abandoned because it can not be exploited industrially.

Le demandeur en est donc revenu à la solution initiale, même si cette dernière présentait ou présente de nombreux inconvénients.The applicant therefore returned to the initial solution, even if the latter presented or had many disadvantages.

En égard de cette situation, le demandeur a néanmoins poursuivi ses recherches afin de trouver d'autres solutions de substitution.In view of this situation, the applicant nevertheless continued his search for alternative alternatives.

Après de nouvelles recherches, une solution a été trouvée qui présente un grand intérêt en ce qu'elle permet de répondre à l'ensemble des problèmes posés rencontrés antérieurement, et qui permet de garantir une continuité de l'aspect visuel du revêtement posé y compris dans les zones d'angles.After new research, a solution has been found which is of great interest in that it makes it possible to answer all of the problems posed previously, and which makes it possible to guarantee a continuity of the visual aspect of the coating laid down including in the corner areas.

Selon l'invention, le dispositif pour pose de revêtements de sols et murs dans les angles rentrants est remarquable en ce qu'il est constitué par un empiècement indépendant, issu du même matériau constitutif du revêtement avec les mêmes caractéristiques constitutives et de décor, ledit empiècement d'angle étant constitué en deux dimensions avant pose, et défini en trois dimensions après pose, en présentant, à plat, une configuration géométrique de ses lignes non régulière pour, qu'après pose, ledit empiècement ait une configuration géométrique régulière parallélépipédique, et en ce que ledit empiècement comprend 4 zones, trois zones triangulées dont deux des bases sont une partie du pourtour périphérique de l'empiècement, et la troisième base intérieure permet par la juxtaposition consécutive d'obtenir une partie centrale triangulée, disposée inclinée après pose, et se situant dans un plan avancé et d'éloignement par rapport à la partie d'angle de jonction des parois de murs successives et du sol, ladite partie centrale triangulée constituant une surface de dégagement apparente d'accès aisé pour l'entretien et permettant le déversement et la collecte des poussières et autres à sa base.According to the invention, the device for laying floor and wall coverings in the re-entrant angles is remarkable in that it consists of an independent yoke, resulting from the same material constituting the coating with the same constitutive and decorative characteristics, said angle insert being constituted in two dimensions before laying, and defined in three dimensions after laying, presenting, flat, a geometric configuration of its non-regular lines for, after installation, said yoke has a regular parallelepiped geometric configuration, and in that said yoke comprises 4 zones, three triangulated zones of which two of the bases are a part of the peripheral periphery of the yoke, and the third inner base makes it possible, by the consecutive juxtaposition, to obtain a triangulated central part, disposed inclined after installation. , and lying in an advanced plane and away from the part of an connecting the walls of successive walls and the ground, said triangulated central portion constituting an apparent clearance surface easy access for maintenance and allowing the discharge and collection of dust and other at its base.

Selon une autre caractéristique, le procédé de pose de revêtements de sols et de murs dans les angles rentrants est remarquable en ce qu'il consiste à découper des empiècements selon des formes géométriques particulières dans les matériaux du revêtement destinés à être posés au sol, lesdits empiècements découpés étant en deux dimensions, à présenter lesdits empiècements dans les zones d'angles rentrants, à couvrir et à les déformer pour faire apparaître des parties planes triangulées destinées à être fixées sur les parois de murs en regard et la paroi de sol en regard, et définir une partie centrale inclinée conformée en triangulation, avec la base en avant, ladite partie centrale étant dégagée par rapport à l'angle de jonction des parois de murs et sol entre eux, et en ce que l'empiècement réalisé s'intègre dans une découpe d'angle établie sur le revêtement principal, et en ce que l'empiècement d'angle est fixé par collage ou autre aux parois de murs et sol en regard à l'exception de sa zone centrale, et en ce que le raccordement entre l'empiècement et le revêtement principal s'effectue par jonction bout à bout et dépose d'un moyen de liaison.According to another characteristic, the method for laying floor and wall coverings in the re-entrant corners is remarkable in that it consists in cutting inserts according to particular geometric shapes in the materials of the covering intended to be placed on the ground, said cut insets being in two dimensions, to present said inserts in the zones of reentrant angles, to cover and to deform them to reveal triangulated plane portions intended to be fixed on the wall walls opposite and the floor wall facing , and defining a tilted central portion shaped in triangulation, with the base forward, said central portion being disengaged with respect to the junction angle of the wall walls and ground between them, and in that the integrated yoke integrates in an angled cut-out on the main liner, and in that the corner insert is secured by gluing or otherwise to the walls and floor opposite except for its central zone, and in that the connection between the yoke and the main coating is made by end-to-end joining and removal of a connecting means.

Ces caractéristiques et d'autres encore ressortiront bien de la suite de la description.These and other characteristics will be apparent from the rest of the description.

Afin de rendre plus concret l'objet de l'invention, on le décrit maintenant d'une manière non limitative aux figures des dessins.In order to make the object of the invention more concrete, it is now described in a nonlimiting manner in the figures of the drawings.

On a représenté par (1A) (1B) deux parois de murs successives, et par (1C) le sol susceptible d'être recouvert d'un revêtement (R) de sol à base de polychlorure de vinyle et autres matériaux similaires ayant toutes caractéristiques appropriées en fonction des besoins et applications. La partie d'angle rentrant est référencée par (1D) et est donc définie comme étant la zone de convergence de deux parois de murs successives perpendiculaires entre elles et ce par rapport au plan de sol (1C).There are represented by (1A) (1B) two walls of successive walls, and by (1C) the soil likely to be covered with a coating (R) of soil based on polyvinyl chloride and other similar materials having all characteristics. appropriate to the needs and applications. The reentrant corner portion is referenced by (1D) and is therefore defined as being the convergence zone of two successive wall walls perpendicular to each other and with respect to the ground plane (1C).

Selon l'invention, on dispose, dans les parties d'angles d'un lieu, d'une construction de toutes natures et applications, des dispositifs indépendants constituant des empiècements d'angles (10) qui sont réalisés dans le même matériau que le revêtement de sol lui-même. Ainsi, les empiècements d'angles (10) ont les mêmes caractéristiques techniques et aspects visuels que les revêtements posés dans le lieu considéré, en assurant ainsi une continuité et une harmonie complète dans l'esthétique et la continuité des caractéristiques techniques du revêtement. Chaque empiècement (10) est donc fabriqué comme le revêtement en se présentant initialement dans un état initial avant pose en deux dimensions. Le revêtement (R), et donc le ou les empiècements (10) ont, de par leur matériau constitutif, une certaine souplesse et sont donc déformables. L'empiècement (10), selon l'invention, présente, en situation à plat après découpe, une configuration géométrique plane, non régulière, dans une forme globale d'aspect polygonal avec deux parties triangulées (T1 - T2) orientées opposées, et de surface différente, séparées par un axe de jonction (a.a) rectiligne correspondant à la largeur maximum (1) de l'empiècement, et un axe (b.b) perpendiculaire conférant à l'empiècement sa symétrie. L'empiècement (10) est représenté à plat, selon les figures 6, 7, 8 et 9 avec, à partir d'une même forme générale, quelques variantes. Ainsi, à partir des figures 6 et 8, la partie triangulée, qui définit deux zones (Z1 - Z2) qui seront destinées à être contre les parois de murs, présente une partie centrale de raccordement au sommet curviligne (10a), tandis qu'aux figures 7 à 9 la zone de jonction est établie par une arête (10b). La partie triangulée (T2) est destinée à configurer, après pose, sensiblement deux zones (Z3 et Z4), une zone (Z3) destinée à constituer la partie avant de l'empiècement pour être solidarisé au sol, et la partie (Z4) centrale qui est délimitée sur chacun de ses côtés par les trois zones (Z1 - Z2 - Z3). A plat, la zone triangulée (T2) est définie par une variation de sa largeur en rétrécissant de sa base vers son sommet en deux angulations différentes pouvant faire apparaître deux sections trapézoïdales (10c - 10d) successives de surface différente. La partie d'extrémité présente, selon les figures 6, 8 ou 7, 9 une partie sommitale rentrante (10e) ou en saillie (10f), selon l'application.According to the invention, in the corner portions of a location, a construction of all types and applications is provided, independent devices constituting corner inserts (10) which are made of the same material as the flooring itself. Thus, the corner inserts (10) have the same technical characteristics and visual aspects as the coatings placed in the location, thus ensuring continuity and complete harmony in the aesthetics and continuity of the technical characteristics of the coating. Each yoke (10) is thus manufactured as the coating by initially appearing in an initial state before laying in two dimensions. The coating (R), and therefore or the inserts (10) have, by their constituent material, a certain flexibility and are therefore deformable. The yoke (10), according to the invention, has, in a flat situation after cutting, a flat, non-regular geometrical configuration in a polygonal overall shape with two opposite triangulated portions (T1-T2), and of different surface, separated by a rectilinear junction axis (aa) corresponding to the maximum width (1) of the yoke, and a perpendicular axis (bb) conferring on the yoke its symmetry. The yoke (10) is shown flat, according to Figures 6, 7, 8 and 9 with, from the same general form, some variants. Thus, from FIGS. 6 and 8, the triangulated part, which defines two zones (Z1 - Z2) which will be intended to be against the wall walls, has a central connection part at the curvilinear vertex (10a), whereas in Figures 7 to 9 the junction area is established by an edge (10b). The triangulated portion (T2) is intended to configure, after laying, substantially two zones (Z3 and Z4), a zone (Z3) intended to constitute the front part of the yoke to be secured to the ground, and the part (Z4) central which is delimited on each of its sides by the three zones (Z1 - Z2 - Z3). Flat, the triangulated zone (T2) is defined by a variation of its width by narrowing from its base to its vertex in two different angulations that can reveal two successive trapezoidal sections (10c - 10d) of different surface. The end portion has, according to Figures 6, 8 or 7, 9 a reentrant (10e) or projecting (10f) top portion, depending on the application.

Selon l'invention, l'empiècement ainsi défini dans sa configuration géométrique, et ayant une certaine souplesse de par sa constitution, peut être mis en place dans la zone d'angle rentrant en prenant la configuration nouvelle illustrée figures 4 et 5. L'empiècement comprend ainsi trois zones triangulées (T1 - T2 - T3), deux (T1 - T2) fixées à la paroi de mur en regard, et la troisième (T3) fixée en avant sur le sol, et ce par tous moyens, collage ou autre. La quatrième zone (T4) apparaît par déformation et présente à son tour un aspect triangulé en constituant un plan incliné (10g) vers l'avant, rigide et éloigné par rapport à la partie d'angle rentrant définie entre les parois de murs et du sol, cet éloignement étant de plusieurs centimètres en fonction de la dimension de l'empiècement. Cette quatrième zone (T4) prend ainsi naissance sensiblement dans la zone de raccordement des zones triangulées (T1 et T2), et se développe jusqu'à la jonction de la zone triangulée (T3) solidarisée au sol. L'angle d'inclinaison α de cette quatrième zone est de l'ordre de 45° et définit un plan ou surface de dégagement apparent relativement importante, tout en restant dans une continuité avec les autres parties de l'empiècement et celles du revêtement qui lui est associé. On dispose ainsi autant d'empiècements qu'il y a d'angles rentrants dans la pièce ou le local à aménager.According to the invention, the yoke thus defined in its geometrical configuration, and having a certain flexibility of its constitution, can be put in place in the re-entrant angle zone by taking the new configuration illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5. yoke thus includes three zones triangulated (T1 - T2 - T3), two (T1 - T2) attached to the wall wall opposite, and the third (T3) fixed forward on the ground, and by any means, bonding or other. The fourth zone (T4) appears by deformation and in turn has a triangulated appearance by forming a forward inclined plane (10g) rigid and remote from the reentrant angle portion defined between the walls of the walls and the soil, this distance being several centimeters depending on the size of the yoke. This fourth zone (T4) thus starts substantially in the connection zone of the triangulated zones (T1 and T2), and develops until the junction of the triangulated zone (T3) secured to the ground. The angle of inclination α of this fourth zone is of the order of 45 ° and defines a plane or relatively large apparent clearance surface, while remaining in continuity with the other parts of the yoke and those of the coating which is associated with him. Thus, there are as many inserts as there are reentrant angles in the room or the room to be converted.

Il y a lieu de préciser ainsi que la mise en place des empiècements d'angles rentrants s'effectue après positionnement des berceaux profilés en quart de cercle rappelés initialement selon l'art antérieur. Le procédé de pose des revêtements des empiècements s'effectue comme suit.It should be made clear that the introduction of the re-entrant corner inserts is performed after positioning quarter-circle profiled cradles initially recalled according to the prior art. The method of laying the coverings of the panels is as follows.

Le procédé de pose de revêtements de sols et de murs dans les angles rentrants est remarquable en ce qu'il consiste à découper des empiècements selon des formes géométriques particulières dans les matériaux du revêtement destiné à être posé au sol, lesdits empiècements découpés étant en deux dimensions, à présenter lesdits empiècements dans les zones d'angles rentrants, à couvrir et à les déformer pour faire apparaître des parties planes triangulées destinées à être fixées sur les parois de murs en regard et la paroi de sol en regard, et définir une partie centrale inclinée conformée en triangulation, avec la base en avant, ladite partie centrale étant dégagée par rapport à l'angle de jonction des parois de murs et sol entre eux, et en ce que l'empiècement réalisé s'intègre dans une découpe d'angle établie sur le revêtement principal, et en ce que l'empiècement d'angle est fixé par collage ou autre aux parois de murs et sol en regard à l'exception de sa zone centrale, et en ce que le raccordement entre l'empiècement et le revêtement principal s'effectue par jonction bout à bout et dépose d'un moyen de liaison.The method of laying floor and wall coverings in the re-entrant corners is remarkable in that it consists in cutting inserts according to particular geometric shapes in the materials of the floor-lying covering, said cut-out panels being in two parts. dimensions, to present said inserts in the zones of reentrant angles, to cover and to deform them to reveal triangular plane parts intended to be fixed on the walls of walls view and the ground wall facing, and define an inclined central portion shaped triangulation, with the base in front, said central portion being clear with respect to the junction angle of the walls of walls and ground between them, and in that that the formed yoke integrates into a corner cut-out established on the main lining, and that the corner yoke is fixed by gluing or otherwise to the wall and floor walls with the exception of its central zone, and in that the connection between the yoke and the main coating is made by end-to-end joining and removal of a connecting means.

Les avantages ressortent bien de l'invention. On souligne le nouveau concept de réalisation des empiècements dans la matière et le décor du revêtement de sol principal, la simplicité de mise en oeuvre des empiècements in situ. Il faut les déformer en trois dimensions et appliquer ensuite certaines parties contre les parois de murs et de sol en les solidarisant par collage ou autres. On supprime les opérations de découpe, de soudure, dans l'angle. On évite l'apparition de détériorations par l'effet de chaleur donnée par l'outil de chauffe et de dépose du cordon de soudure. On supprime les endroits d'angles d'accès impossible en proposant au contraire de décaler la zone d'angle avec une large base inclinée vers l'avant évitant de stocker les déchets. L'entretien est donc plus facile, s'effectue en tous points et on répond donc aux exigences sanitaires et d'hygiène en particulier requises dans les milieux hospitaliers et de la santé en général.The advantages are apparent from the invention. We emphasize the new concept of realization of the inserts in the material and the decoration of the main flooring, the simplicity of implementation of the inserts in situ. They must be deformed in three dimensions and then apply certain parts against the walls of walls and soil by joining them by gluing or others. Cutting operations, welding, in the corner are suppressed. It prevents the occurrence of deterioration by the effect of heat given by the tool for heating and removing the weld seam. Places of inaccessible access angles are eliminated by proposing instead to shift the corner area with a wide inclined base forward avoiding storage of waste. Maintenance is easier, is carried out in all respects and therefore meets the health and hygiene requirements especially required in hospitals and health in general.

On répond aussi à un autre problème qui est celui de la non perpendicularité des parois de murs et/ou de sols entre elles, l'empiècement de par sa nature s'adaptant très facilement aux différences géométriques pouvant exister in situ entre les parois de murs/sols.Another problem is that of the non-perpendicularity of walls and / or floors between them, the yoke by its very nature, it adapts very easily to geometrical differences that may exist in situ between walls / floors.

Un autre avantage réside dans la possibilité pour l'opérateur de travailler avec un jeu de gabarits de formes et dimensions variables mais reprenant la configuration de l'empiècement selon l'invention. Il suffit à l'opérateur, à l'aide d'un cutter, de découper l'empiècement in situ dans la longueur du revêtement mis à disposition. Il n'y aura pas de différences du tout, l'empiècement étant découpé dans le revêtement de pose.Another advantage lies in the possibility for the operator to work with a set of jigs of varying shapes and dimensions but taking over the configuration of the yoke according to the invention. It suffices for the operator, using a cutter, to cut the yoke in situ in the length of the coating made available. There will be no differences at all, the yoke being cut in the laying liner.
