Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung enthaltend eine Vielzahl an Fußbodenpaneelen zur Auflage auf einen Untergrund, mit je einer ersten Längskante und einer dazu parallelen zweiten Längskante, mit je zwei parallelen Querkanten und mit je einer vom Untergrund abgewandten Oberseite, die mit sich von der übrigen Oberseite optisch absetzenden, eine Markierung bildenden Markierungsstreifen versehen ist, die sich jeweils von einem ersten Markierungsstreifenende zu einem zweiten Markierungsstreifenende erstrecken, wobei die Fußbodenpaneelen identische Abmessungen aufweisen, wobei benachbarte Fußbodenpaneelen unterschiedliche Markierungen aufweisen, wobei die Fußbodenpaneelen aus einer Holzwerkstoffplatte bestehen, wobei das erste und/oder zweite Markierungsstreifenende vom jeweiligen Fußbodenpaneel der Anordnung an einer der Kanten angeordnet ist und wobei der Abstand der an den Längskanten angeordneten Markierungsstreifenenden zur nächstgelegenen Querkante identisch ist und ein Viertel der Gesamtlänge der Längskanten beträgt und der Abstand des an der einen Querkante angeordneten Markierungsstreifenendes zur ersten Längskante gleich dem Abstand des an der anderen Querkante angeordneten Markierungsstreifenendes zur ersten Längskante ist. Eine solche Anordnung ist aus der US 4,546,025 bekannt.The invention relates to an arrangement containing a plurality of floor panels for resting on a substrate, each having a first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal edge parallel thereto, each with two parallel transverse edges and each with an upper side facing away from the surface, the optically with the rest of the upper side depicting mark-forming marker strips each extending from a first marker strip end to a second marker strip end, the floor panels having identical dimensions, adjacent floor panels having different markings, the floor panels being made of a wood-based panel, the first and / or second marker strip end is disposed from the respective floor panel of the array at one of the edges, and wherein the distance of the marker strip ends located at the longitudinal edges to the nearest transverse edge is identical and a Vi ertel the total length of the longitudinal edges and the distance of the arranged at one edge edge marker strip end to the first longitudinal edge is equal to the distance of the arranged at the other transverse edge marker strip end to the first longitudinal edge. Such an arrangement is from the US 4,546,025 known.

Aus dem Stand der Technik ist es bekannt, eine Vielzahl an Paneelen gleicher Abmessungen, die aus einem Holzwerkstoff bestehen können, zu einem Fußbodenbelag anzuordnen. Es sind verschiedene Verlegemuster bekannt, bei denen die in der Regel länglich geformten Paneele auf bestimmte Weise benachbart zu anderen Paneelen angeordnet werden. Bei mehreren Verlegemustern ist vorgesehen, dass die Paneelen parallel zueinander angeordnet sind, das heißt eine der Längskanten immer die Längskante mindestens eines benachbarten Paneels und eine der Querkanten eine Querkante eines benachbarten Paneels berührt. Es sei darauf hingewiesen, dass im Folgenden mit dem Begriff "Längskante" nicht zwingend die längere der beiden Kanten und mit dem Begriff "Querkante" nicht zwingend die kürzere der beiden Kanten gemeint ist. So kann auch die Querkante länger als die Längskante sein. Auch können Längs- und Querkante gleich lang sein.From the prior art it is known to arrange a plurality of panels of the same dimensions, which may consist of a wood material, to a floor covering. Various laying patterns are known in which the generally elongate shaped panels are arranged in a certain manner adjacent to other panels. In the case of several laying patterns, it is provided that the panels are arranged parallel to one another, that is, one of the longitudinal edges always touches the longitudinal edge of at least one adjacent panel and one of the transverse edges touches a transverse edge of an adjacent panel. It should be pointed out that the term "longitudinal edge" does not necessarily mean the longer of the two edges and the term "transverse edge" does not necessarily mean the shorter of the two edges. So can the Cross edge to be longer than the longitudinal edge. Also, longitudinal and transverse edges can be the same length.

Bekannt ist beispielsweise die Verlegung im Parallel-Verband, bei der die Paneelen auf gleicher Höhe parallel verlegt werden, das heißt die Querkanten von sich an ihrer Längskante berührenden benachbarten Paneelen auf gleicher Höhe liegen. Es sind auch Verbände bekannt, bei denen bei einer parallelen Verlegung die Paneelen versetzt angeordnet werden, beispielsweise um die Hälfte versetzt (englischer Verband) oder um ein Drittel versetzt (Oxford-Verband), das heißt die Querkanten von sich an ihren Längskanten berührenden benachbarten Paneelen sind zueinander versetzt angeordnet.It is known, for example, the laying in parallel-bandage, in which the panels are laid parallel at the same height, that is, the transverse edges of adjacent longitudinal panels touching their adjacent panels are at the same height. Associations are also known in which the panels are arranged offset in a parallel installation, for example, offset by half (English Association) or offset by a third (Oxford Association), that is, the transverse edges of adjacent to their longitudinal edges adjacent panels are arranged offset to each other.

Die Paneelen, die beispielsweise zur Herstellung eines Fußbodenbelags verwendet werden, können auch mit einem Dekor bzw. einer Musterung versehen sein. Das Aufbringen eines Musters ist an sich bekannt. Beispielsweise können mit dem Muster versehene Folien und/oder harzgetränkte Papiere auf einen Trägerkörper, beispielsweise eine Holzwerkstoffplatte, aufgeklebt werden. Das Dekor kann aber auch mittels eines Druckverfahrens direkt auf die Trägerplatte aufgebracht sein.The panels, which are used for example for the production of a floor covering, can also be provided with a pattern or a pattern. The application of a pattern is known per se. For example, provided with the pattern films and / or resin-impregnated papers on a support body, such as a wood-based panel, are glued. The decor can also be applied directly to the carrier plate by means of a printing process.

Dabei kann es gewünscht sein, dass nicht alle Paneelen eines Fußbodens dasselbe Dekor, beispielsweise in eine bestimmte Richtung verlaufende Markierungsstreifen, aufweisen, sondern einige Paneelen Markierungsstreifen unterschiedlicher Ausrichtung aufweisen. In diesem Fall ist es, damit ein optisch ansprechendes Erscheinungsbild erzielt wird, erforderlich, die einzelnen Paneelen während des Verlegens so auszuwählen und auszurichten, dass im Kantenbereich zwischen den Markierungsstreifen des einen Paneels und den Markierungsstreifen des jeweils benachbarten Paneels möglichst kein nennenswerter Versatz erkennbar ist. Dies führt zu einer sehr begrenzten Zahl an unterschiedlichen Dekoren, die miteinander kombinierbar sind. Außerdem ist das Verlegen aufgrund der Notwendigkeit des sorgfältigen Auswählens und Ausrichtens des jeweils nächsten zu legenden Paneels sehr aufwendig.It may be desired that not all panels of a floor have the same decor, for example, running in a particular direction marker strips, but have some panels marker strips of different orientation. In this case, in order to obtain a visually pleasing appearance, it is necessary to select and align the individual panels during laying in such a way that in the edge region between the marking strips of the one panel and the Marking strips of each adjacent panel as no significant offset is recognizable. This leads to a very limited number of different decors that can be combined with each other. In addition, laying is very expensive due to the need for careful selection and alignment of the next panel to be laid.

Es ist daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, das Verlegen von Paneelen mit unterschiedlichen Dekoren zu vereinfachen.It is therefore the object of the present invention to simplify the laying of panels with different decors.

Die Aufgabe wird bei einer Anordnung mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs von Patentanspruch 1 gelöst durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils von Patentanspruch 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.The object is achieved in an arrangement with the features of the preamble of claim 1 by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Paneelen und die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung erlauben eine parallele Verlegung der Paneelen im Verband ohne die Notwendigkeit, bei jedem zu verlegenden Paneel darauf zu achten, dass die eine Markierung bildenden Markierungsstreifen zu denjenigen der bereits verlegten Paneelen passen. Die einzelnen Paneelen können grundsätzlich in beliebiger Reihenfolge und ggf. auch in beliebiger Ausrichtung aneinandergelegt werden.The panels according to the invention and the arrangement according to the invention permit a parallel laying of the panels in the dressing without the need to ensure, with each panel to be laid, that the marking strips forming a marking match those of the already installed panels. The individual panels can basically be put together in any order and possibly also in any orientation.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung und der erfindungsgemäßen Paneelen ist, dass beispielsweise der Fußboden eines Raumes mit einem individuellen, Paneelübergreifenden Muster versehen werden kann, ganz nach Wunsch des Benutzers. So ist es beispielsweise denkbar, den Fußbodenbelag in einem Kinderzimmer mit Paneelen herzustellen, auf denen die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehenen Markierungsstreifen Straßen darstellen, wobei nahezu unendliche Kombinationsmöglichkeiten bestehen und dadurch ganz individuelle Straßenverläufe hergestellt werden können, insbesondere dann, wenn eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Dekore bei der Vielzahl an Paneelen zur Verfügung steht. Gleichermaßen wäre es auch denkbar, anstelle eines Kinderzimmers einen großen repräsentativen Raum mit einem auf die vorangehend beschriebene Weise künstlerisch gestalteten Fußboden zu versehen, der beispielsweise weiße Markierungsstreifen auf einem dunklen Untergrund aufweist, die durch individuelles Aneinanderlegen der einzelnen Paneelen ein Gesamtkunstwerk ergeben.A further advantage of the arrangement according to the invention and of the panels according to the invention is that, for example, the floor of a room can be provided with an individual, panel-overlapping pattern, entirely according to the wishes of the user. So it is conceivable, for example, to produce the floor covering in a nursery with panels, on which the inventively provided marking strips represent roads, with almost infinite combination options exist and thus quite individual road courses can be made, especially when a variety of different decors in the large number of panels is available. Likewise, it would also be conceivable, instead of a nursery, to provide a large, representative room with a floor artistically designed in the manner described above, which has, for example, white marking strips on a dark background, which result in a total work of art through the individual juxtaposition of the individual panels.

Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung kann gemäß vorteilhafter Ausgestaltungen unter anderem dadurch gekennzeichnet sein,

  • dass die Markierungsstreifen aufgedruckt sind,
  • dass die Markierungsstreifen gerade und/oder gebogene Abschnitte aufweisen,
  • dass mindestens einer der Markierungsstreifen eine sich über seinen Verlauf ändernde Breite aufweist,
  • dass mindestens einer der Markierungsstreifen mindestens einen anderen Markierungsstreifen berührt und/oder kreuzt;
  • dass ein Markierungsstreifenende zu allen Kanten beabstandet angeordnet ist,
  • dass mindestens ein Markierungsstreifen vorgesehen ist, dessen eines Markierungsstreifenende in einem Abschnitt desselben Markierungsstreifens oder in einem Abschnitt eines anderen Markierungsstreifens endet,
  • dass der Abstand jedes der an einer der Querkanten angeordneten Markierungsstreifenenden zur ersten Längskante gleich dem Abstand zur zweiten Längskante ist,
  • dass der Abstand jedes der an einer der Querkanten angeordneten Markierungsstreifenenden zur ersten Längskante kleiner als der Abstand zur zweiten Längskante ist und insbesondere ein Viertel oder ein Drittel der Gesamtlänge der Querkante beträgt und/oder
  • dass der oder die Zwischenräume zwischen den Markierungsstreifen ebenfalls eine Markierung darstellen, die sich von der von den Markierungsstreifen gebildeten Markierung optisch und/oder haptisch unterscheidet, wobei insbesondere mindestens einer der Zwischenräume mindestens eine Darstellung einer Landschaft aufweist, die beispielsweise einen Wald, eine Wiese, einen See, ein Gebäude, eine Tankstelle, eine Sportstätte, ein Einkaufszentrum und/oder einen Gemüsemarkt etc. enthält. D.h. auch die besagten Markierungszwischenräume können Markierungszwischenraumenden im Kantenbereich des Paneels aufweisen. Die vorangehend beschriebenen die Markierungsstreifen und -streifenenden betreffenden Merkmale und Ausgestaltungen gelten gleichermaßen für die Markierungszwischenräume und -zwischenraumenden.
The arrangement according to the invention can, according to advantageous embodiments, be characterized inter alia by
  • that the marker strips are printed,
  • the marking strips have straight and / or bent sections,
  • at least one of the marking strips has a width which changes over its course,
  • that at least one of the marker strips touches and / or crosses at least one other marker strip;
  • a marker strip end is spaced from all edges,
  • at least one marking strip is provided, one end of the marker strip ending in a section of the same marking strip or in a section of another marking strip,
  • the distance of each of the marking strip ends arranged at one of the transverse edges to the first longitudinal edge is equal to the distance to the second longitudinal edge,
  • that the distance between each of the marking strip ends arranged at one of the transverse edges to the first longitudinal edge is smaller than the distance to the second longitudinal edge and in particular amounts to a quarter or a third of the total length of the transverse edge and / or
  • the space or spaces between the marking strips likewise represent a marking that differs optically and / or haptically from the marking formed by the marking strips, wherein in particular at least one of the intermediate spaces has at least one representation of a landscape that, for example, a forest, a meadow, a lake, a building, a gas station, a sports facility, a shopping center and / or a vegetable market, etc. That is to say, the said marking interspaces may also have marking interspace ends in the edge region of the panel. The above-described marker strips and strips of the relevant features and embodiments apply equally to the marker gaps and gap ends.

Es gibt nun eine Vielzahl von Möglichkeiten, die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung und die erfindungsgemäßen Paneelen auszugestalten und weiterzubilden. Hierzu sei einerseits verwiesen auf die dem Patentanspruch 1 nachgeordneten Patentansprüche, andererseits auf die Beschreibung von Ausführungsbeispielen in der beigefügten Zeichnung. In der Zeichnung zeigt:

There are now a variety of ways to design and further develop the inventive arrangement and the panels of the invention. For this purpose, reference is made, on the one hand, to the claims subordinate to patent claim 1, and, on the other hand, to the description of Embodiments in the accompanying drawing. In the drawing shows:

Further embodiments of suitable for such an arrangement panels.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine Anordnung 1 enthaltend drei Paneelen 5, die im vorliegenden Fall Teil eines Fußbodenbelags in einem Kinderzimmer sind. Fig. 1 shows an assembly 1 containing three panels 5, which in the present case are part of a floor covering in a nursery.

Die Paneelen 2 haben identische Abmessungen und sind im englischen Verband, also jeweils um die Hälfte versetzt, parallel verlegt. Alle Paneelen 2 weisen eine erste Längskante 3a und eine zweite dazu parallele Längskante 3b sowie zwei parallele Querkanten 4 auf. Die Paneelen 2 unterscheiden sich aber durch jeweils darauf vorgesehene Markierungen auf der vom Untergrund abgewandten Oberseite 5. Die Oberseite 5 ist nämlich mit sich von der übrigen Oberseite optisch absetzenden Markierungsstreifen versehen, die sich jeweils von einem ersten Markierungsstreifenende zu einem zweiten Markierungsstreifenende erstrecken.The panels 2 have identical dimensions and are in English Association, so offset by half, laid in parallel. All panels 2 have a first longitudinal edge 3a and a second longitudinal edge 3b parallel thereto and two parallel transverse edges 4. However, the panels 2 differ in each case by markings provided thereon on the upper side 5 facing away from the substrate. The upper side 5 is provided with marking strips optically depositing from the remaining upper side, each extending from a first marking strip end to a second marking strip end.

Bei dem in Fig. 1 oberen Paneel 2 verläuft ein Markierungsstreifen 6 von einem Ende 6a.zu einem Ende 6b, ein Markierungsstreifen 7 von einem Ende 7a zu einem Ende 7b und ein Markierungsstreifen 8 von einem Ende 8a zu einem Ende 8b, wobei die Enden 7a und 8a an der ersten Längskante 3a angeordnet sind, die Enden 6b und 7b an der zweiten Längskante 3b und die Enden 6a und 8b an den beiden Querkanten 4.At the in Fig. 1 upper panel 2, a marker strip 6 extends from an end 6a to an end 6b, a marker strip 7 from an end 7a to an end 7b, and a marker strip 8 from an end 8a to an end 8b, the ends 7a and 8a being arranged on the first longitudinal edge 3a, the ends 6b and 7b on the second longitudinal edge 3b, and the ends 6a and 8b on the two transverse edges 4.

Bei dem in Fig. 1 unteren linken Paneel verläuft ein Markierungsstreifen 6' von einem Ende 6'a zu einem Ende 6'b, ein Markierungsstreifen 7' von einem Ende 7'a zu einem Ende 7'b und ein Markierungsstreifen 8' von einem Ende 8'a zu einem Ende 8'b.At the in Fig. 1 In the lower left panel, a marker strip 6 'extends from one end 6'a to one end 6'b, a marker strip 7' from one end 7'a to an end 7'b, and a marker strip 8 'from one end 8'a to one End 8'b.

Bei dem in Fig. 1 unteren rechten Paneel verläuft ein Markierungsstreifen 6'' von einem Ende 6'' a zu einem Ende 6''b, ein Markierungsstreifen 7'' von einem Ende 7''a zu einem Ende 7''b, ein Markierungsstreifen 8'' von einem Ende 8''a zu einem Ende 8''b und ein Markierungsstreifen 9'' von einem Ende 9'' a zu einem Ende 9''b. Dabei ist das Ende 8''b und das Ende 9''b zu allen Kanten 3a,3b und 4 beabstandet angeordnet. Das Ende 9''b mündet dabei in einen Abschnitt desselben Markierungsstreifens 9''. Der Markierungsstreifen 8'' endet mit seinem Ende 8''b an einem nicht näher bezeichneten, aufgedruckten Querbalken.At the in Fig. 1 In the lower right panel, a marker strip 6 "extends from an end 6" a to an end 6 "b, a marker strip 7" from an end 7 "a to an end 7" b, a marker strip 8 "of FIG an end 8 "a to an end 8" b and a marking strip 9 "from an end 9" a to an end 9 "b. In this case, the end 8 "b and the end 9" b are arranged at a distance from all the edges 3 a, 3 b and 4. The end 9 "b opens into a section of the same marking strip 9". The marking strip 8 "ends with its end 8" b on an unspecified, printed crossbar.

Es ist deutlich zu erkennen, dass, obwohl jedes der Paneelen 2 andere Markierungen aufweist, die Paneelen 2 in beliebiger Reihenfolge angeordnet werden können, solange hier eine parallele Verlegung im Verband, in diesem Beispiel im englischen Verband, gewährleistet ist. Trotz unterschiedlicher Markierungen liegen sich im Berührungsbereich zweier benachbarter Paneele immer zwei Markierungsstreifenenden exakt gegenüber. Im Einzelnen liegen sich in Fig. 1 die Markierungsstreifenenden 6b und 7'a bzw. 6'b und 6'' a bzw. 7b und 6''b gegenüber, und zwar ohne Versatz. Selbst wenn man zwei der dargestellten Paneelen 2 in Fig. 1 gegeneinander austauschen würde, würden sich immer zwei Markierungsstreifenenden im Kantenbereich exakt gegenüberliegen.It can be clearly seen that, although each of the panels 2 has different markings, the panels 2 can be arranged in any order, as long as a parallel laying in the bandage, in this example the English bandage, is guaranteed. Despite different markings, two marking strip ends are always exactly opposite each other in the area of contact between two adjacent panels. Specifically, lie in Fig. 1 the marker strip ends 6b and 7'a and 6'b and 6 '' a and 7b and 6''b opposite, without offset. Even if you two of the illustrated panels 2 in Fig. 1 would exchange each other, always two marker strip ends would be exactly opposite in the edge region.

Verschiedene mögliche Ausgestaltungen von Paneelen, die zu einer Anordnung zusammengefügt werden können, wie sie in Fig. 1 dargestellt ist, sind in den Figuren 2a) bis g) und den Figuren 3a) bis g) dargestellt.Various possible configurations of panels that can be assembled into an assembly as shown in FIG Fig. 1 are shown in the FIGS. 2a ) to g) and the FIGS. 3a ) to g).

Bei den in den Figuren 2a) bis g) dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen ist, genauso wie in Fig. 1, der Abstand y1,y'1 jedes der an den Querkanten angeordneten Markierungsstreifenenden zur ersten Längskante, das heißt zur oberen Längskante, gleich dem Abstand y2, y'2 zur zweiten Längskante, das heißt zur unteren Längskante. Die Markierungsstreifen enden also im Bereich der Querkanten in deren Mitte.In the in the FIGS. 2a ) to g) illustrated embodiments, as well as in Fig. 1 , the distance y 1, y ' 1 of each of the arranged at the transverse edges marker strip ends to the first longitudinal edge, that is to the upper longitudinal edge, equal to the distance y 2 , y' 2 to the second longitudinal edge, that is the lower longitudinal edge. The marker strips thus end in the middle of the region of the transverse edges.

Dagegen ist bei den Ausführungsbeispielen in den Figuren 3a) bis g) der Abstand der an den Querkanten angeordneten Markierungsstreifenenden zur ersten Längskante, also zur oberen Längskante, kleiner als der Abstand zur zweiten Längskante, also zur unteren Längskante. Der Abstand zur unteren Längskante ist dabei dreimal so groß wie der Abstand zur oberen Längskante.In contrast, in the embodiments in the FIGS. 3a ) to g) the distance of the arranged at the transverse edges marker strip ends to the first longitudinal edge, ie the upper longitudinal edge, smaller than the distance to the second longitudinal edge, ie the lower longitudinal edge. The distance to the lower longitudinal edge is three times as large as the distance to the upper longitudinal edge.

Bei allen in den Figuren 1 bis 3 dargestellten Paneelen ist der Abstand der an den Längskanten angeordneten Markierungsstreifenenden zur nächstgelegenen Querkante, in Fig. 1 mit x1 bzw. x2 bezeichnet, identisch und beträgt dabei ein Viertel der Gesamtlänge x der Längskante.At all in the FIGS. 1 to 3 shown panels, the distance between the arranged at the longitudinal edges marker strip ends to the nearest transverse edge, in Fig. 1 denoted by x 1 and x 2 , identical and is one quarter of the total length x of the longitudinal edge.
