Definitions

  • the invention relates to a floor panel having a first side edge and a second side edge, wherein the first side edge and the second side edge are opposite each other and corresponding to each other to connect the first side edge with a second side edge of another floor panel, and wherein the first side edge a base profile and a locking bar for locking the first side edge having a second side edge inwardly movable. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for connecting such floor panels.
  • Floor panels of the type mentioned are known from the prior art. They are usually rectangular and made of a wooden material.
  • the four circumferential side edges are designed so that they can be connected to other similar floor panels to a floor covering. There may be two side edges in the same manner and corresponding to the other two side edges, which are also of similar design. But the side edges can also be different, in which case the first and second side edges and the third and fourth side edges can be connected to each other.
  • the corresponding corresponding side edges are provided on opposite sides of the floor panels.
  • the side edges are regularly locked together in the connected state, preferably on the one hand in a direction perpendicular to the floor panels and on the other hand in a direction perpendicular to the side edges and parallel to the floor panels.
  • the floor panels can not be pulled apart easily, especially not without damage.
  • these have correspondingly shaped profiles, the so-called locking profiles on.
  • the side edges can be connected by horizontal telescoping and / or by interlocking.
  • Such floor panels are for example from the WO 97/47834 A1 known.
  • the locking profiles can be connected to each other by a substantially vertical movement, in which case a locking profile is inserted from above into a corresponding locking profile.
  • Such floor panels are for example in the WO 2004/003314 A1 described.
  • the locking profiles generally have a base profile and a locking bolt provided on the base profile. While the basic profile of the side edge can be made relatively massive, the locking bar must either bent, pushed in, displaced or otherwise moved inward during connection become. The locking bar thus virtually forms the movable part of a locking connection, which allows the passage of a locking lug, which is then engaged behind by the locking bolt for the purpose of locking. Locking bars of this type, which may also be provided on locking profiles for interlocking, telescoping or the like, are due to their function regularly less solid than the basic profile.
  • the present invention is therefore the object of the above-mentioned and previously described in detail floor panels and the method for connecting the floor panels in such a way and further develop that the first side edge and the second side edge cooperate more appropriately in mutual connection.
  • a projection is provided such that the projection when connecting the first side edge with the second side edge in an intermediate position on the one hand in the recess between the Bumper and the locking latch engages and on the other hand in further connecting the first side edge cooperates with the second side edge to form a locked end position with the locking bolt.
  • the basic profile is so inventively designed so that the basic profile forms a bumper, which protects the locking bolt from damage. If the floor panel is pushed horizontally in a direction against a flat and vertical to the floor panel aligned wall, the bumper forms the part of the base profile, which comes into contact with the wall. It can therefore be taken on the bumper at least part of the impact energy.
  • the bumper can be designed to be solid or reinforced accordingly. In particular, the formation of the bumper in the form of a bead offers.
  • a vertical orientation means an orientation perpendicular to the floor panel and a horizontal direction means a direction parallel to the floor panel and perpendicular to the first and / or second side edge.
  • This definition depends on the orientation of the floor panels in the installed state and is only for ease of understanding. On an exactly horizontal orientation of the floor panels in the true sense, it does not matter.
  • the outer vertical plane is provided according to this understanding at the outer end of the base profile in the horizontal direction.
  • the vertical plane is perpendicular to the floor panel. If the floor panel collides in the horizontal direction with a flat vertical surface of an object, then the surface lies in the collision of Basic profile and flat surface in the vertical plane. Assuming that the base profile is not crushed or even damaged by collision with the vertical flat surface, the surface does not approach the floor panel any further than the vertical plane defined by the bumper strip.
  • the base profile may be slightly depressed as a result of the collision
  • the article may have some unevenness protruding in the direction of the locking bar, or the floor panel may not exactly perpendicular but slightly oblique, collide with the object Also protected those locking bar against accidental damage due to the unintentional collision described, which occupy a position in the unconnected state on the inside of the vertical plane.
  • the object with which the floor panel collides, then can not or only minimally bounce against the locking bar and damage it.
  • the energy of the collision is essentially absorbed by the bumper and derived over the basic profile as a whole.
  • locking bars are not protected by the bumper, which are located far away from the vertical plane. Therefore, according to the invention only those locking bars come into consideration, which are arranged at least adjacent to the vertical plane, ie have only a slight distance from the vertical plane. What is to be understood at a slight distance may depend greatly on the shape of the basic profile. If the basic profile is very filigree and / or the floor panel is very thin, the small distance will be rather small and vice versa. In addition, the small distance will be rather small if the basic profile is very stable and very stiff, ie less elastic, formed and vice versa.
  • the slight distance of the locking bolt to the vertical plane in the unconnected state is not greater than about 1 mm, in particular not greater than 0.5 mm or even 0.1 mm.
  • the first side edge and the second side edge are easier to connect to each other, if this distance is less.
  • the risk of damaging the locking bolt due to a shock basically decreases with increasing distance.
  • the locking bar basically has a minimum of flexibility, or can be moved minimally inward from the vertical plane, according to the invention, such locking bars are also protected against damage as a result of an impact by the protective strip which adjoin the vertical plane, i. are arranged on the inside of the vertical plane and approach to the vertical plane. Even if these locking bars come into contact with the flat surface of the object in a collision, this contact is not sufficient to damage the locking bars, since the locking bars can give something and the bumper absorbs the majority of the impact energy and dissipates.
  • locking bars are protected by the bumper having basic profile from damage by a previously described shock, which protrude outwards relative to the vertical plane, if the locking bars are designed to occupy a position on the inside of the vertical plane at least when connecting the first side edge to a second side edge.
  • the locking bars are then in fact not moved further inward even in the event of a collision than is the case with the intended connection to a second side edge of a further floor panel.
  • Outwardly in front of a locking bolt in this context if it extends in the horizontal direction to the outside than the basic profile.
  • the locking bar itself does not have to be aligned in the horizontal direction. He can also run obliquely, preferably obliquely downwards.
  • the outwardly projecting locking bolt changes its original position relative to the basic profile, namely in an inward direction relative to the vertical plane.
  • the locking bolt can be deformed, bent, pivoted, pushed or moved as such to reach the inner position.
  • the locking latch need not permanently maintain this inner position.
  • the locking bolt can, as required, move outward again when the two side edges are further connected. This may, if necessary, cause the locking bolt, for example, in an end position of the first and the second side edge to each other, assumes its original outer position and / or again protrudes outwards relative to the vertical plane.
  • the locking bolt and the flat surface are in abutment with each other.
  • the locking bar is then forced inward by the flat surface until the flat surface comes into contact with the base profile.
  • the flat surface and the vertical plane are substantially in contact with each other.
  • a further approximation between the floor panel and the flat surface is not or only slightly possible. Depending on the hardness of the joint and the design of the basic profile, this may under certain circumstances be deformed slightly inward.
  • the energy of the shock is, if it has not been completely degraded by the outwardly projecting locking bolt, taken from the base profile and derived.
  • the locking bolt is thus forced from its outer position in the unconnected state during the shock not further inward than is the case when properly connecting the first side edge with a second side edge.
  • the floor panel is thus designed anyway.
  • the locking bolt reaches maximum due to the impact in a position in which the locking bolt would also reach when connecting the side edges.
  • the locking bar is designed for this change in position, there is no damage to the locking bolt, in any case no excessive damage that goes beyond the damage of the locking bolt when used properly appreciable.
  • the basic profile and the locking bar of the first side edge are ultimately coordinated so that the base profile protects the locking bolt in the event of a shock from damage, as long as the impact is not so severe that the base profile is damaged as such, since the floor panel with a damaged Base profile would no longer be used anyway, even if the locking bar remained intact.
  • a damage of the locking bolt in the context of the invention is preferably not understood to mean that also occurs during the intended connection of the first with the second side edge, since this damage as such does not affect a connection. Damage to the locking bolt and / or the connection between the locking bolt and the base profile that occurs as intended can, for example, be cracks or the like.
  • the locking bolt for locking the first side edge is loaded with the second side edge substantially to train and / or pressure. In such Sperrriegeln even small damage can cause a failure of the connection by itself, so that the floor covering can open at the appropriate location.
  • the locking bar adjacent to a elasticity which gives the locking bolt the necessary elasticity or deformability, on the one hand for connecting the first and the second side edge and on the other hand for the deflection of the locking bar in the event of a collision between the floor panel and a solid object.
  • the elasticity groove at least partially has an elastic mass. About this elastic mass, the elasticity of the locking bolt can be easily adjusted in the desired manner.
  • the locking bolt may be connected to the base profile so that an originally existing connection between the locking bolt and the base profile is destroyed at least partially when connecting.
  • the connection may break or break.
  • the locking bar when connecting the first and the second side edge together can easily assume the required inner position.
  • the locking bolt is provided so that it does not get lost. This can be ensured, for example, by the elastic mass when the locking bar and the elastic mass adhere to each other.
  • the locking bolt is then connected to the base profile even after damage to the original connection between the locking bolt and base profile on the elastic mass, for example, materially.
  • the locking bar can reliably fulfill its function in connecting the first side edge and the second side edge and cooperate with the second side edge so that the two side edges lock by means of the locking bolt.
  • a projection for engaging in the recess between the locking bar and the bumper when connecting the first side edge is provided with the second side edge. This favors the interaction of the first and second side edges when connecting.
  • the projection is also designed to cooperate with the locking bolt when connecting. Even if the accessibility of the locking bolt is limited from the outside due to the basic profile, this disadvantage for connecting the first and the second side edge can be compensated by the projection.
  • the projection can be guided in the direction of the locking bolt.
  • the projection could also taper outwards in order to be able to more easily and reliably penetrate into the recess of the first side edge. It is particularly preferred if both the recess tapers inward and the projection, in particular corresponding to the recess, tapers outwards.
  • the projection of the second side edge may be provided at the same time for locking the first side edge with the second side edge and thus, if necessary, assume a dual function.
  • the locking latch preferably has a locking surface which cooperates in the connected state with the locking bolt.
  • the locking surface is provided on a, not necessarily horizontal, top of the projection. If the locking bar is loaded in the connected state to train, however, the locking surface may be provided on an underside of the projection.
  • the first and second side edges may be designed to assume a starting position in the approximated state. In this starting position, one side edge, preferably the second side edge, rests on the other, preferably the first, side edge. From the starting position, the side edges can, if necessary, be brought into a mutual intermediate position by a substantially horizontal movement.
  • the first side edge and the second side edge may be designed so that during the substantially horizontal movement, one, preferably the second, side edge engages in the other, preferably the first, side edge.
  • a horizontal movement is again understood as meaning essentially parallel to the floor panel and perpendicular to the side edges.
  • the first and second side edges may alternatively or additionally be provided to be joined together by a final, substantially vertical, movement. This is for construction and / or laying the floor panels cheap.
  • the basic profile of the first side edge can hinder the accessibility of the locking bar for the second side edge in the vertical direction to a considerable extent. Therefore, the first and second side edges may preferably be formed so that the final, substantially vertical movement takes place from the previously described intermediate position. For the final vertical movement, a suitable and defined starting point can be determined.
  • the locking bolt and / or the protective strip can be provided on a locking spring.
  • the second side edge then preferably has a locking groove into which the locking spring engages locking. This training is the appropriate locking of the first and second side edge.
  • the second side edge may have a feather key, which engages in the connected state in a fitting groove of the first side edge.
  • the positions of the feather key and the fit groove can also be interchanged between the first and second side edges. Since the feather key and the fitting groove have corresponding mating surfaces, the key and the fitting groove serve for the suitable locking of the first and second side edges.
  • the floor panel described above preferably has an upper decorative layer.
  • This can include a resin-soaked decor paper or in direct printing, so without a printed decor paper, are produced.
  • known paints and / or resins are used.
  • transparent layers can be provided to protect the decorative layer.
  • these layers can also have a resin-impregnated paper and / or a resin-impregnated fiber layer.
  • a lacquer and / or resin layer with fine solid particles, such as corundum can be provided.
  • a so-called Gegenzug Anlagen is preferably provided, which can also be formed by a resin-impregnated paper.
  • the panel body as such has a carrier layer, in particular of a wood material. More preferably, the locking profiles are machined in one piece from the carrier layer, in particular milled.
  • Suitable wood-based materials are, for example, medium-density fiberboard (MDF), high-density fibreboard (HDF), chipboard or Oriented Strand Boards (OSB).
  • MDF medium-density fiberboard
  • HDF high-density fibreboard
  • OSB Oriented Strand Boards
  • solid wood a wood / plastic composite or a compact board made from pressed, resin-impregnated papers as a carrier material.
  • the floor panels of the type mentioned can be laid easily and quickly in this way, even if the locking bar is assigned to the outer end of the base profile and at the same time protected from the base profile against external influences or shielded, which can lead to damage of the locking bolt.
  • a joining of two floor panels by a purely vertical movement against each other can be excluded or at least made more difficult by the structural design in particular the first side edge. This may be the case, for example, from a lack of accessibility of the locking bar for the second side edge of another floor panel from above.
  • the locking bar must be regularly accessible for the second side edge, because the second side edge regularly pushes the locking bar during connection in order to achieve a locking of the first and the second side edge of adjacent floor panels. This circumstance is taken into account by the partially horizontal and partially vertical movement of the second side edge for connecting the same to the first side edge of an adjacent floor panel according to the invention.
  • a projection of the second side edge in engagement with a recess of the first side edge brought above the locking bolt can thus be protected against the effects of a shock, for example, by a bumper strip provided above the locking bolt.
  • the locking bolt is then accessible for a projection of the second side edge via a recess provided above the locking bolt recess, which is why two floor panels can still be easily locked together.
  • the projection may first press the locking bar inwardly from the outer position to an inner position located on the inner side of the vertical plane, while, preferably, the second side edge slides down the first side edge. Subsequently, the projection can engage behind the locking bolt locking.

  • the method may also be provided that, when connecting the first to the second side edge, an originally existing connection between the locking bolt and the base profile is destroyed at least in sections.
  • connection may, for example, rupture or break to easily and defined the locking bar when connecting the first and the second side edge with each other and defined to the inner position of the locking bar, and if necessary, back to move.
