Definitions
- the invention relates to a floor plate, for instance for a shower floor. It is known to arrange a plastic plate on a hard sub-floor during the construction or renovation of a shower floor. This plastic plate is also referred to as sloping plate because such a plate often has a gradient in the upper surface. It is usual here for a drain to be arranged in the plate and for the gradient in the upper surface of the plate to be directed toward the drain.
- Such a floor plate is placed on an existing sub-floor of for instance a shower.
- a sealing membrane is then arranged on the floor plate.
- This sealing membrane protrudes over the edges of the floor plate and is incorporated into the side walls or the floor.
- a watertight connection is hereby obtained between the floor plate and surrounding walls and floors.
- the sealing membrane ensures a good substrate for adhesion of tiles.
- a drawback in such floor plates is that the adhesion of the sealing membrane to the floor plate depends on the skill of the installer. When the correct glue is for instance not used, it may be the case that the sealing membrane is not fixed wholly watertightly to the floor plate. Another drawback is that the connection of the drain to the floor plate or to the sealing membrane can vary in quality subject to the skills of the installer.
- a floor plate wherein the above stated drawbacks are alleviated.
- This object is achieved with a floor plate according to the invention, as defined by claim 1.
- the flexible layer is arranged at a distance from the peripheral edge, a strip along the edge of the plate is free, and this edge can be processed as desired.
- the flexible layer can thus already be fixed to the plate in the factory, whereby a good sealing of the flexible layer on the foam plate is guaranteed, while the floor plate can be easily made to measure during installation.
- the plate is preferably manufactured from a hard foam. Foam has the advantage of a low specific weight, but also a good sound insulation.
- the flexible layer is arranged around a central part of the plate.
- the central part of the plate is not fully covered by the flexible layer.
- the floor plate in another embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention there is arranged around the central part a peripheral groove into which an edge of the flexible layer protrudes. Because the flexible layer protrudes into the groove, the layer is held fast over a large surface area, whereby the watertight connection between the plate and the layer is very robust. It is recommended here that a strip is arranged in the peripheral groove for the purpose of clamping the flexible layer. This strip ensures a good clamping as well as an increased stability of the plate, since the strip functions as a strengthening rib.
- the flexible layer is provided with a central opening such that the edge of the central opening of the flexible layer protrudes into the peripheral groove, and wherein elastic parts are inserted into the edge of the central opening of the flexible layer.
- elastic parts can for instance be rubber inserts which make it possible for the edge of the sealing membrane protruding into the peripheral groove to run through continuously without being interrupted at the corners or different layers lying one over another.
- the central part of the plate is provided with an adhesive layer for adhering for instance tiles. Since the central part is not covered by the flexible layer, this part can be provided with a suitable adhesive layer. Such an adhesive layer is a further advantage since the central part is loaded most when for instance the floor plate is used as shower floor.
- the flexible layer according to the invention can for instance be a sealing membrane or bitumen layer.
- the underside of the plate is provided with a large number of protrusions.
- a floor plate must be glued onto the sub-floor. When the glue is applied unevenly to the sub-floor it may occur that cavities remain after placing of a floor plate. These cavities occur because the flat lower surface of a floor plate cannot sufficiently displace the unevenly applied glue.
- protrusions such as for instance studs or ribs
- the surface covered by the protrusions is preferably 40% to 80% of the total surface of the underside.
- the underside can further be provided with an adhesive layer for adhering to the substrate.
- a glue layer is arranged on the adhesive layer, the glue layer being covered airtightly by a film.
- the correct glue ensuring a good fixing to a sub-floor can hereby already be applied in the factory.
- the fixing of the floor plate to the sub-floor hereby no longer depends on the glue at the disposal of the installer.
- the plate of the floor plate according to the invention preferably has a uniform thickness.
- Such plates are readily available commercially at a reasonable price.
- extra glue can be used on one side during the arranging thereof, whereby a gradient can be obtained in simple manner. This gradient is usually in the order of 1 centimetre per metre.
- the floor plate in yet another embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention at least part of the upper surface of the plate does not run parallel to the lower surface of the plate.
- the floor plate hereby obtains a gradient running preferably in the direction of the drain.
- the floor plate there are arranged in the underside at least two parallel grooves in which strengthening elements of substantially U-shaped cross-section are arranged. These strengthening elements prevent bending of the plate, whereby tiles arranged on the plate remain better fixed thereto.
- the floor plate comprises at least two wedge-like elements, which wedge-like elements protrude into the strengthening elements in order to tilt the floor plate relative to the substrate on which the floor plate is placed. Both the height and the angle of inclination of the floor plate according to the invention can hereby be adjusted.
- the drain is preferably further arranged, for instance glued, sealingly in the plate.
- the drain is an elongate shower drain.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a floor plate 1 according to the invention.
- This floor plate 1 has a foam plate 2 in which an elongate drain 3 is arranged.
- Floor plate 1 is provided with a central part 4 around which a sealing membrane 5 is arranged.
- Foam plate 2 is provided with a gradient.
- the upper surface of foam plate 2 does not run parallel here to the lower surface. This ensures that water falling onto floor plate 1, or tiles arranged thereon, runs in the direction of elongate drain 3.
- sealing membrane 5 is arranged with a peripheral edge 6 in a peripheral groove 7. This peripheral edge 6 is clamped here by a strip 8.
- sealing membrane 5 is connected to foam plate 2 at a distance from peripheral edges 9 of foam plate 2, it is simple to modify foam plate 2 to the dimensions of the floor on which floor plate 1 must be placed, without sealing membrane 5 being affected.
- Central part 4 of foam plate 2 is further provided with an adhesive layer 11. Just as sealing membrane 5, this adhesive layer 11 can already be applied in the factory so that a desired quality is obtained. Adhesive layer 11 forms a good substrate for tiling.
- Studs 10 are arranged on the underside of foam plate 2 (see also figure 3 ) . These studs 10 ensure that the glue with which floor plate 1 is adhered to a sub-floor is displaced and comes to lie in the space between studs 10. In addition, studs 10 enlarge the adhesive surface area, and unevenness in the sub-floor can be easily compensated.
- FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment 20 of a floor plate according to the invention.
- This floor plate 20 also has a foam plate 21.
- Foam plate 21 here has a uniform thickness.
- Further arranged in foam plate 21 are an elongate drain 22 and a peripheral groove 24 arranged around a central part 23.
- An edge 25 of sealing membrane 26 is inserted into this peripheral groove 24.
- Edge 25 is provided with inserted flexible parts 27. In non-loaded situation edge 25 can hereby lie at an angle to the remaining part of sealing membrane 26. This simplifies insertion of edge 25 into groove 24 and facilitates a good watertight connection of cloth 26 to foam plate 21.
- peripheral groove 24 Further inserted into peripheral groove 24 is a strip 28 with which edge 25 of cloth 26 is clamped fixedly.
- Foam plate 21 is provided on the underside with a number of parallel grooves 28.
- U-shaped profiles, which impart strength to foam plate 21, are preferably arranged in these grooves 28.
- Wedge-like elements 29 are then inserted into these grooves 28, whereby the height of floor plate 20 can be adjusted, as can the angle of inclination, so that floor plate 20 is still given a gradient while foam plate 21 has a uniform thickness.

Description
- The invention relates to a floor plate, for instance for a shower floor. It is known to arrange a plastic plate on a hard sub-floor during the construction or renovation of a shower floor. This plastic plate is also referred to as sloping plate because such a plate often has a gradient in the upper surface. It is usual here for a drain to be arranged in the plate and for the gradient in the upper surface of the plate to be directed toward the drain.
- Such a floor plate is placed on an existing sub-floor of for instance a shower. A sealing membrane is then arranged on the floor plate. This sealing membrane protrudes over the edges of the floor plate and is incorporated into the side walls or the floor. A watertight connection is hereby obtained between the floor plate and surrounding walls and floors. In addition, the sealing membrane ensures a good substrate for adhesion of tiles.
- A drawback in such floor plates is that the adhesion of the sealing membrane to the floor plate depends on the skill of the installer. When the correct glue is for instance not used, it may be the case that the sealing membrane is not fixed wholly watertightly to the floor plate. Another drawback is that the connection of the drain to the floor plate or to the sealing membrane can vary in quality subject to the skills of the installer.
- It is now further known in the prior art, see for
example document DE 10 2007 010 598 A1 , disclosing a floor plate comprising the features of the preamble of claim 1, that floor plates are factory-supplied provided with a sealing membrane which covers the whole upper surface of the floor plate. Because the sealing membrane is already fixed to the floor plate in the factory, the quality, and thereby the water-tightness, are guaranteed. A drawback again however is that it is difficult to make such plates to measure because the sealing membrane is glued over the whole surface of the floor plate. - It is now an object of the invention to provide a floor plate wherein the above stated drawbacks are alleviated. This object is achieved with a floor plate according to the invention, as defined by claim 1. Because the flexible layer is arranged at a distance from the peripheral edge, a strip along the edge of the plate is free, and this edge can be processed as desired. The flexible layer can thus already be fixed to the plate in the factory, whereby a good sealing of the flexible layer on the foam plate is guaranteed, while the floor plate can be easily made to measure during installation. The plate is preferably manufactured from a hard foam. Foam has the advantage of a low specific weight, but also a good sound insulation.
- In an embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention the flexible layer is arranged around a central part of the plate. In this embodiment the central part of the plate is not fully covered by the flexible layer. The advantage is that tiles can be fixed directly onto the plate without interposing a flexible layer. This reduces the danger of the tiles detaching as a result of movement.
- In another embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention there is arranged around the central part a peripheral groove into which an edge of the flexible layer protrudes. Because the flexible layer protrudes into the groove, the layer is held fast over a large surface area, whereby the watertight connection between the plate and the layer is very robust. It is recommended here that a strip is arranged in the peripheral groove for the purpose of clamping the flexible layer. This strip ensures a good clamping as well as an increased stability of the plate, since the strip functions as a strengthening rib.
- In a preferred embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention the flexible layer is provided with a central opening such that the edge of the central opening of the flexible layer protrudes into the peripheral groove, and wherein elastic parts are inserted into the edge of the central opening of the flexible layer. These elastic parts can for instance be rubber inserts which make it possible for the edge of the sealing membrane protruding into the peripheral groove to run through continuously without being interrupted at the corners or different layers lying one over another.
- In another preferred embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention the central part of the plate is provided with an adhesive layer for adhering for instance tiles. Since the central part is not covered by the flexible layer, this part can be provided with a suitable adhesive layer. Such an adhesive layer is a further advantage since the central part is loaded most when for instance the floor plate is used as shower floor.
- The flexible layer according to the invention can for instance be a sealing membrane or bitumen layer.
- In a preferred embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention the underside of the plate is provided with a large number of protrusions. A floor plate must be glued onto the sub-floor. When the glue is applied unevenly to the sub-floor it may occur that cavities remain after placing of a floor plate. These cavities occur because the flat lower surface of a floor plate cannot sufficiently displace the unevenly applied glue.
- By now arranging protrusions, such as for instance studs or ribs, under the plate these protrusions can be pressed into the glue, whereby the glue is displaced more easily. The surface covered by the protrusions is preferably 40% to 80% of the total surface of the underside.
- The underside can further be provided with an adhesive layer for adhering to the substrate.
- In another preferred embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention a glue layer is arranged on the adhesive layer, the glue layer being covered airtightly by a film. The correct glue ensuring a good fixing to a sub-floor can hereby already be applied in the factory. The fixing of the floor plate to the sub-floor hereby no longer depends on the glue at the disposal of the installer.
- The plate of the floor plate according to the invention preferably has a uniform thickness. Such plates are readily available commercially at a reasonable price. In order to obtain the desired gradient in such a plate of uniform thickness, extra glue can be used on one side during the arranging thereof, whereby a gradient can be obtained in simple manner. This gradient is usually in the order of 1 centimetre per metre.
- In yet another embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention at least part of the upper surface of the plate does not run parallel to the lower surface of the plate. The floor plate hereby obtains a gradient running preferably in the direction of the drain.
- In yet another preferred embodiment of the floor plate according to the invention there are arranged in the underside at least two parallel grooves in which strengthening elements of substantially U-shaped cross-section are arranged. These strengthening elements prevent bending of the plate, whereby tiles arranged on the plate remain better fixed thereto. According to another embodiment, the floor plate comprises at least two wedge-like elements, which wedge-like elements protrude into the strengthening elements in order to tilt the floor plate relative to the substrate on which the floor plate is placed. Both the height and the angle of inclination of the floor plate according to the invention can hereby be adjusted.
- The drain is preferably further arranged, for instance glued, sealingly in the plate.
- It is further highly recommended that the drain is an elongate shower drain.
- These and other features of the invention are further elucidated with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Foam plate 2 is provided with a gradient. The upper surface offoam plate 2 does not run parallel here to the lower surface. This ensures that water falling onto floor plate 1, or tiles arranged thereon, runs in the direction ofelongate drain 3. - As can be seen in
figure 2 , sealingmembrane 5 is arranged with a peripheral edge 6 in aperipheral groove 7. This peripheral edge 6 is clamped here by a strip 8. - Because sealing
membrane 5 is connected tofoam plate 2 at a distance from peripheral edges 9 offoam plate 2, it is simple to modifyfoam plate 2 to the dimensions of the floor on which floor plate 1 must be placed, without sealingmembrane 5 being affected. - Central part 4 of
foam plate 2 is further provided with anadhesive layer 11. Just as sealingmembrane 5, thisadhesive layer 11 can already be applied in the factory so that a desired quality is obtained.Adhesive layer 11 forms a good substrate for tiling. -
Studs 10 are arranged on the underside of foam plate 2 (see alsofigure 3 ) . Thesestuds 10 ensure that the glue with which floor plate 1 is adhered to a sub-floor is displaced and comes to lie in the space betweenstuds 10. In addition,studs 10 enlarge the adhesive surface area, and unevenness in the sub-floor can be easily compensated. -
Figure 4 shows asecond embodiment 20 of a floor plate according to the invention. Thisfloor plate 20 also has afoam plate 21.Foam plate 21 here has a uniform thickness. Further arranged infoam plate 21 are anelongate drain 22 and aperipheral groove 24 arranged around acentral part 23. Anedge 25 of sealingmembrane 26 is inserted into thisperipheral groove 24.Edge 25 is provided with insertedflexible parts 27. In non-loaded situation edge 25 can hereby lie at an angle to the remaining part of sealingmembrane 26. This simplifies insertion ofedge 25 intogroove 24 and facilitates a good watertight connection ofcloth 26 tofoam plate 21. - Further inserted into
peripheral groove 24 is astrip 28 with whichedge 25 ofcloth 26 is clamped fixedly. -
Foam plate 21 is provided on the underside with a number ofparallel grooves 28. U-shaped profiles, which impart strength tofoam plate 21, are preferably arranged in thesegrooves 28. Wedge-like elements 29 are then inserted into thesegrooves 28, whereby the height offloor plate 20 can be adjusted, as can the angle of inclination, so thatfloor plate 20 is still given a gradient whilefoam plate 21 has a uniform thickness.
