Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Profilsystem für Böden zur Abdeckung von Freiräumen in Bodenbelägen und/oder zur Überbrückung von Höhenunterschieden zwischen verschiedenen Bodenbelägen, bestehend aus einem Bodenprofil, welches insbesondere mittels stiftartiger Befestigungsteile oder durch Verklebung am Boden fixierbar ist, und mit einem daran anbringbaren, den Freiraum zumindest einseitig übergreifenden Abdeckprofil, wobei ein im Abstand über dem Boden angeordneter und gegen den Boden entsprechend abgestützter, im Wesentlichen horizontal ausgerichteter Bereich für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils an dem Bodenprofil, mittels bei montiertem Abdeckprofil den Bereich durchgreifender selbstschneidender Schrauben vorgesehen ist.The invention relates to a profile system for floors for covering free spaces in floor coverings and / or for bridging differences in height between different floor coverings, consisting of a bottom profile, which can be fixed in particular by means of pin-like fasteners or by bonding to the ground, and with an attachable thereto, the free space At least on one side cross-cover profile, wherein a spaced above the floor and against the floor correspondingly supported, substantially horizontally oriented area for attachment of the cover to the ground profile, by means of mounted cover profile the area sweeping self-tapping screws is provided.

Aus der Praxis sind in verschiedenen Ausführungsformen bekannt, bei denen für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils mittels Schrauben ein in Längsrichtung des Profilsystems verlaufender Schraubkanal mit geriffelten sowie vertikalausgerichteten seitlichen Kanalwänden vorgesehen ist. Ein solches Profilsystem ist beispielsweise in der DE 20 2008 000 534 U1 und der DE 103 49 932 A1 beschrieben. Dabei ist jeweils der Schraubkanal gelenkig an dem Bodenprofil vorgesehen. Ein Profilsystem, bei dem derSchraubkanal starr an dem Bodenprofil vorgesehen ist,offenbart die DE 201 17 167 U1 .From practice in various embodiments are known in which for fastening the cover profile by means of screws in the longitudinal direction of the profile system extending screw channel is provided with corrugated and vertically aligned lateral channel walls. Such a profile system is for example in the DE 20 2008 000 534 U1 and the DE 103 49 932 A1 described. In each case, the screw is hinged to the Ground profile provided. A profile system in which the screw channel is rigidly provided on the bottom profile discloses the DE 201 17 167 U1 ,

Aus der EP1 442 687 A1 ist hingegen ein Profilsystem für Böden bekannt, bei dem am Bodenprofil ein im Abstand über dem Boden angeordneter und gegen den Boden entsprechend abgestützter, im Wesentlichen horizontal ausgerichteter Bereich für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils mittels selbstschneidender, bei montiertem Abdeckprofil den Bereich durchgreifender Schrauben vorgesehen ist.From the EP1 442 687 A1 On the other hand, a profile system for floors is known, in which on the bottom profile, a region arranged at a distance above the floor and supported against the floor, substantially horizontally aligned area for fastening the cover profile by means of self-tapping, with screws in the cover profile mounted.

Auch existiert eine Variante, bei der neben dem im Wesentlichen horizontal ausgerichteter Bereich für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils an dem Bodenprofil ein Führungsbereich an dem Bodenprofil vorgesehen ist, der mit einem entsprechenden unterseitigen Vorsprung an dem Abdeckprofil zusammenwirkt.There is also a variant in which, in addition to the substantially horizontally oriented region for the attachment of the cover profile to the floor profile, a guide area the bottom profile is provided, which cooperates with a corresponding lower-side projection on the cover profile.

Nachteilig hierbei ist, dass durch die seitlich an dem regulären Bodenprofil vorgesehene Anordnung des Führungsbereichs eine erhöhte Breite resultiert, die in der Praxis sich als problematisch erweisen kann.The disadvantage here is that the laterally provided on the regular soil profile arrangement of the guide area results in an increased width, which may prove problematic in practice.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die vorgenannten Nachteile zu vermeiden und ein Profilsystem anzugeben, welches auch bei einer geringen Breite zwischen verschiedenen Bodenbelägen einsetzbar ist.The object of the invention is to avoid the aforementioned disadvantages and to provide a profile system which can be used even with a small width between different floor coverings.

Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass zum einen das Abdeckprofil einen Teilbereich mit zwei unterseitig vorstehenden und einander zugewandt gegenüberliegenden, in Längsrichtung des Abdeckprofils verlaufenden und einwärts weisenden, parallel zueinander ausgebildeten inneren Kontaktflächen aufweist, und zum anderen das Bodenprofil ein Führungselement mit zwei oberseitig vorstehenden, in Längsrichtung des Bodenprofils verlaufenden, zumindest oberseitig einen dem Abstand der Kontaktflächen des Abdeckprofils entsprechenden Abstand aufweisenden Kontaktflächen beinhaltet, welche außenseitig an dem im Wesentlichen horizontal ausgerichteten Bereich des Bodenprofils vorgesehen und auswärts weisend ausgebildet sind, wobei die inneren Kontaktflächen des Abdeckprofils die äußeren Kontaktflächen des Bodenprofils bei montiertem Abdeckprofil seitlich umfassen und durch diese seitlich geführt sind.This object is achieved in that, on the one hand, the cover profile has a partial area with two underside projecting and facing each other, extending in the longitudinal direction of the cover profile and facing inwards, parallel to each other formed inner contact surfaces, and on the other hand, the bottom profile a guide element with two top side protruding, extending in the longitudinal direction of the bottom profile, at least on the upper side the distance of the contact surfaces of the cover corresponding distance having contact surfaces which are provided on the outside of the substantially horizontally oriented portion of the bottom profile and outwardly facing, wherein the inner contact surfaces of the cover profile, the outer contact surfaces of the bottom profile cover laterally mounted cover profile and are guided by this side.

Hierdurch resultiert ein deutlich verringerter seitlicher Raumbedarf, so dass ein solches Profilsystem auch bei einem geringen seitlichen Abstand zwischen den Bodenbelägen einsetzbar ist.This results in a significantly reduced lateral space requirement, so that such a profile system also in a small lateral distance between the floor coverings can be used.

Vorzugsweise kann der Abstand zwischen den Kontaktflächen sich unterseitig verringernd ausgebildet sein. Somit wird z. B. bei einem als Übergangsprofil ausgebildeten Abdeckprofil, das zum Ausgleich unterschiedlicher Bodenhöhen gegenüber der Horizontalen verkippt angeordnet werden soll, verhindert, dass das Ende des unterseitig vorstehenden Teilbereichs des Abdeckprofils zu früh mit der entsprechenden Kontaktfläche des Bodenelements in Kontakt kommt. Somit ist auch eine verkippte Anordnung und Befestigung des Abdeckprofils bei starrem unterseitigen Teilbereich des Abdeckprofils möglich.Preferably, the distance between the contact surfaces can be formed decreasing on the underside. Thus, z. As in a trained as a transition profile cover profile, which is to be tilted to compensate for different ground heights relative to the horizontal, prevents the end of the underside protruding portion of the cover comes into contact too early with the corresponding contact surface of the bottom element. Thus, a tilted arrangement and attachment of the cover is possible with rigid underside portion of the cover.

Erfindungsgemäß können die Kontaktflächen des Bodenprofils als an den seitlichen oberen Kanten des Bereichs für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils vorgesehene Vorsprünge ausgebildet sein, so dass mit einer einfachen technischen Gestaltung eine Verkippbarkeit des Abdeckprofils gewährleistet ist.According to the invention, the contact surfaces of the bottom profile can be formed as provided on the lateral upper edges of the region for the attachment of the cover profile projections, so that with a simple technical design a tilting of the cover is guaranteed.

Vorzugsweise kann oberhalb des Bereichs eine parallel zum Führungselement ausgerichtete Führungshilfe für die Schrauben vorgesehen sein, so dass das Ansetzen und Einbringen der Schrauben besonders einfach bewerkstelligt werden kann.Preferably, a guide aid for the screws oriented parallel to the guide element can be provided above the area, so that the attachment and insertion of the screws can be accomplished particularly easily.

Erfindungsgemäß kann die Führungshilfe als zwei oberhalb des Bereichs vorgesehene, geradlinig und zueinander parallel in einer Ebene verlaufende sowie aufeinander zuweisende vorspringende Führungsbereiche ausgebildet sein, wobei der Freiraum zwischen den Führungsbereichen zumindest dem Durchmesser der Schrauben entspricht.According to the invention, the guide aid can be designed as two projecting guide regions which are provided above the region, run straight and parallel to one another in a plane and face each other, wherein the free space between the guide regions corresponds at least to the diameter of the screws.

Vorteilhafterweise können in dem für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils mittels Schrauben ausgebildeten Bereich des Abdeckprofils Durchgangslöcher oder dergleichen für die Schrauben vorgesehen sein, so dass zur Befestigung des Abdeckprofils mittels der Schrauben kein Bohren der Löcher mehr erforderlich ist. Dabei können die Löcher auch als rückwärtig eingebrachte Sacklöcher ausgebildet sein, so dass der das Loch endseitig verschließende Bereich in Form einer Querschnittsschwächung des Abdeckprofils ausgebildet ist und bei Bedarf einfach durchstoßen werden kann.Advantageously, through holes or the like for the screws can be provided in the area of the cover profile designed for fastening the cover profile by means of screws, so that it is no longer necessary to drill the holes for fastening the cover profile by means of the screws. In this case, the holes may also be formed as blind holes introduced at the rear, so that the area closing the hole at the end is designed in the form of a cross-sectional weakening of the cover profile and can simply be pierced if necessary.

Vorteilhafterweise können die Durchgangslöcher oder dergleichen für die Schrauben in einem bei montiertem Abdeckprofil zur Vertikalen zumindest leicht angestellten Winkel ausgerichtet sein. Damit ist sowohl die Ausrichtung der Schrauben als auch die Ausrichtung des zum Einbringen der Schrauben verwendeten Werkzeugs in dem gleichen Winkel angestellt, so dass z. B. bei unmittelbar an eine Wand angrenzender Montage eines als Abschlussprofil ausgebildeten Abdeckprofils ein Kontakt mit der Wand vermieden wird und somit Verschmutzung oder Beschädigung der Wand ausgeschlossen ist.Advantageously, the through-holes or the like for the screws can be aligned in an angle which is at least slightly inclined when the cover profile is mounted to the vertical. Thus, both the orientation of the screws and the orientation of the tool used to introduce the screws is made at the same angle, so that z. B. in directly adjacent to a wall mounting a trained as a final profile cover profile contact with the wall is avoided and thus contamination or damage to the wall is excluded.

Hierzu kann auch wenigstens die Oberseite des für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils mittels Schrauben ausgebildeten Bereichs des Abdeckprofils in einem bei montiertem Abdeckprofil zur Horizontalen zumindest leicht angestellten Winkel ausgerichtet sein.For this purpose, at least the upper side of the area of the covering profile designed to fasten the covering profile by means of screws can also be aligned in an angle which is at least slightly inclined when the covering profile is mounted to the horizontal.

Um in einem solchen Fall ein leichteres Eindringen der selbstschneidenden Schrauben in den entsprechenden Bereich des Bodenprofils zu ermöglichen, kann wenigstens die Oberseite des für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils mittels Schrauben ausgebildeten Bereichs des Bodenprofils in einem bei montiertem Abdeckprofil zur Horizontalen zumindest leicht angestellten Winkel ausgerichtet sein.In order to allow easier penetration of the self-tapping screws in the corresponding region of the soil profile in such a case, at least the top of the trained for the attachment of the cover profile by means of screws portion of the soil profile in a be aligned with mounted cover profile to the horizontal at least slightly hired angle.

Vorzugsweise kann wenigstens der für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils mittels Schrauben ausgebildete Bereich des Abdeckprofils glattflächig ausgebildet sein.Preferably, at least formed for the attachment of the cover profile by means of screws area of the cover profile may be formed smooth surface.

Im Folgenden werden in der Zeichnung dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung erläutert. Die Figuren 1 bis 8 zeigen dabei teilweise in verschiedenen Darstellungsweisen oder unterschiedlichen Ansichten verschiedene alternative Anwendungsbeispiele des erfindungsgemäßen Profilsystems. In allen Figuren werden für gleiche bzw. gleichartige Bauteile übereinstimmende Bezugszeichen verwendet.In the following, illustrated embodiments of the invention will be explained in the drawing. The FIGS. 1 to 8 show in some cases different representations or different views different alternative application examples of the profile system according to the invention. In all figures the same reference numerals are used for identical or similar components.

Figur 1 zeigt ein Bodenprofil 2 eines Profilsystems 1, wobei das Abdeckprofil 3 der Ãœbersichtlichkeit halber in dieser Figur nicht dargestellt ist. FIG. 1 shows a bottom profile 2 of a profile system 1, wherein the cover 3 is not shown in this figure for clarity.

Das Bodenprofil 2 beinhaltet einen Bereich, der zur Befestigung des Bodenprofils 2 am Boden 9 mittels Verschraubung oder Verklebung dient. Weiterhin ist ein Führungselement 10 vorgesehen, welches - wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich - zur Führung des Teilbereichs 4 eines Abdeckprofils 3 dient.The bottom profile 2 includes an area that serves for fastening the bottom profile 2 to the bottom 9 by means of screwing or gluing. Furthermore, a guide element 10 is provided, which - as from Fig. 2 visible - to guide the portion 4 of a cover 3 is used.

Das Abdeckprofil 3 weist einen unterseitig vorstehenden Teilbereich 4 sowie oberseitig mit einer Senkung 5 versehene Durchgangslöcher 6 für die Schrauben 7 auf. Der Teilbereich 4 umfasst zwei unterseitig vorstehende, einander zugewandt ausgerichtete und gegenüberliegende, in Längsrichtung des Abdeckprofils 3 verlaufende und einwärts weisende, parallel zueinander ausgebildete innere Kontaktflächen 16.The covering profile 3 has a subregion 4 protruding on the underside as well as through holes 6 provided on the upper side with a countersink 5 for the screws 7. The portion 4 comprises two underside protruding, facing each other facing and opposite, extending in the longitudinal direction of the cover 3 and inwardly pointing, parallel to each other formed inner contact surfaces 16.

Das Führungselement 10 des Bodenprofils 2 umfasst Kontaktflächen 11, deren Abstand zumindest oberseitig eng ausgebildet ist, jedoch wenigstens der Dicke des Teilbereichs 4 bzw. dem Abstand der Kontaktflächen 16 des Abdeckprofils 3 entspricht. Dabei ist der Abstand zwischen den Kontaktflächen 11 sich unterseitig verengend ausgebildet, so dass auch eine - wie in Fig. 8 dargestellt - verkippte Montage des Abdeckprofils 3 möglich ist. Hierzu umfasst jede Kontaktfläche 11 jeweils einen Vorsprung 13, welcher gegenüber der restlichen Kontaktfläche 11 zumindest leicht hervorstehend ausgebildet ist.The guide element 10 of the base profile 2 comprises contact surfaces 11 whose spacing is closely formed at least on the upper side, but at least corresponds to the thickness of the partial region 4 or the spacing of the contact surfaces 16 of the cover profile 3. In this case, the distance between the contact surfaces 11 is narrowing on the underside, so that a - as in Fig. 8 shown - tilted mounting of the cover 3 is possible. For this purpose, each contact surface 11 each comprises a projection 13, which is formed at least slightly protruding with respect to the remaining contact surface 11.

Das Bodenprofil 2 ist zudem mit einem innerhalb des Führungselements 10 im Abstand über dem Boden 9 angeordneten und gegen den Boden 9 entsprechend abgestützten, im Wesentlichen horizontal ausgerichteten Bereich 12 für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils 3 mittels der selbstschneidenden, bei montiertem Abdeckprofil 3 den Bereich 12 durchgreifenden Schrauben 7 versehen.The bottom profile 2 is also arranged with a within the guide member 10 at a distance above the bottom 9 and against the bottom 9 appropriately supported, substantially horizontally oriented portion 12 for the attachment of the cover 3 by means of self-tapping, with mounted cover 3, the area 12 by cross Provided screws 7.

Wie aus Figur 3 ersichtlich, kann bei Bodenbelägen mit einer hohen Materialstärke die Führungswirkung der Kontaktflächen 11 relativ gering ausfallen.How out FIG. 3 can be found in floor coverings with a high material thickness, the guiding effect of the contact surfaces 11 are relatively small.

Für eine verbesserte Funktionalität entsprechend der Figuren 4 bis 6 ist oberseitig auf dem Bereich 12 ein Verlängerungselement 8 anbringbar, welches ebenfalls mit entsprechenden Kontaktflächen 11 und Vorsprüngen 13 für die Montage des Abdeckprofils 3 an dem Verlängerungselement 8 versehen ist.For improved functionality according to the FIGS. 4 to 6 On the upper side on the region 12, an extension element 8 can be attached, which is likewise provided with corresponding contact surfaces 11 and projections 13 for mounting the cover profile 3 on the extension element 8.

Die Befestigung des Verlängerungselementes 8 an dem Bodenprofil 2 erfolgt ebenfalls mittels Verschraubung durch den Bereich 12. Eine von der horizontale Ausrichtung abweichende verkippte Montage des Verlängerungselementes 8 ist nur dann möglich, wenn der Teilbereich 4 des Abdeckprofils 3 oder aber die Unterseite des Verlängerungselementes 8 nicht horizontal, d. h. parallel zum horizontalen Boden 9, ausgerichtet ist. Insoweit ist das Verlängerungselement 8 mit einem Längsloch 17 versehen, durch welches sowohl die Schrauben 7 für die Befestigung des Verlängerungselements 8 an dem Bodenprofil 2 als auch die Schrauben 7 für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils 3 an dem Bodenprofil 2 hindurchgehen.The attachment of the extension element 8 to the bottom profile 2 also takes place by means of screwing through the area 12. A deviating from the horizontal orientation tilted mounting of the extension element 8 is only possible if the portion 4 of the cover 3 or the underside of the extension element 8 is not horizontal , d. H. parallel to the horizontal bottom 9, is aligned. In that regard, the extension member 8 is provided with a longitudinal hole 17 through which pass both the screws 7 for the attachment of the extension member 8 on the bottom profile 2 and the screws 7 for the attachment of the cover 3 on the bottom profile 2.

Um ein leichteres Einbringen der selbstschneidenden Schrauben 7 in den entsprechenden Bereich des Bodenprofils 2 zu ermöglichen, kann die Oberseite des für die Befestigung des Abdeckprofils 3 mittels Schrauben 7 ausgebildeten Bereichs 12 des Bodenprofils 2 in einem bei montiertem Abdeckprofil 3 zur Horizontalen zumindest leicht angestellten Winkel ausgerichtet sein oder eine seitlich angeschrägte Vertiefung 14 aufweisen. Diese kann - wie aus Figur 5 ersichtlich - auch als Führungselement für einen entsprechenden unterseitigen Führungsvorsprung 15 des Verlängerungselementes 8 dienen.In order to allow easier insertion of the self-tapping screws 7 in the corresponding region of the bottom profile 2, the top of the trained for the attachment of the cover 3 by screws 7 area 12 of the bottom profile 2 in a mounted at cover profile 3 to the horizontal at least slightly aligned angle be or have a laterally tapered recess 14. This can - like out FIG. 5 visible - also serve as a guide element for a corresponding lower-side guide projection 15 of the extension element 8.

In den Figuren 7 und 8 ist das Abdeckprofil 3 als Anpassungsprofil ausgebildet.In the FIGS. 7 and 8th the cover profile 3 is designed as an adaptation profile.
