Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a flooring material according to the preamble of claim 1, comprising sheet-shaped floor elements which are joined by means of joining members.
  • Such flooring material is known from WO 01/02669 .
  • Prefabricated floor boards provided with tongue and groove at the edges are quite common nowadays. These can be installed by the average handy man as they are very easy to install.
  • Such floors can, for example, be constituted of solid wood, fibre board or particle board. These are most often provided with a surface layer such as lacquer, or some kind of laminate.
  • the boards are most often installed by being glued via tongue and groove.
  • the most common types of tongue and groove are however burdened with the disadvantage to form gaps of varying width between the floor boards in cases where the installer hasn't been thorough enough. Dirt will easily collect in such gaps. Moisture will furthermore enter the gaps which will cause the core to expand in cases where it is made of wood, fiber board or particle board, which usually is the case.
  • the floor boards are provided with a locking device at the rear sides.
  • the floor boards are provided with profiles on the lower side at a first long side and short side. These profiles, which extends outside the floor board itself, is provided with an upwards directed lip which fits into grooves on the lower side of a corresponding floor board. These grooves are arranged on the second short side and long side of this floor board.
  • the floor boards are furthermore provided with a traditional tongue and groove on the edges. The intentions are that the profiles shall bend downwards and then to snap back into the groove when assembled.
  • the profiles are integrated with the floor boards through folding or alternatively, through gluing.
  • the floor boards may be joined by turning or prizing it into position with the long side edge as a pivot point. It is then necessary to slide the floor board longitudinally so that it snaps into the floor board previously installed in the same row. A play is essential in order to achieve that. This play seems to be marked A in the figures. A tolerance of 0. 2mm is mentioned in the application. Such a play will naturally cause undesired gaps between the floor boards. Dirt and moisture can penetrate into these gaps.
  • WO 00/47841 describes floor boards that are joined by being pressed downwards.
  • the floor boards are provided with lower joining lips at two adjacent edges while the two remaining edges are provided with upper joining lips.
  • the lower joining lips are provided with essentially vertical lower lip surfaces arranged parallel to the closest edge.
  • the lower lip surfaces are intended to interact with mainly vertical upper lip surfaces arranged on the upper joining lips.
  • Two joined adjacent floor boards are hereby locked together in the horizontal direction.
  • the joining lips are furthermore provided with one or more heels intended to snap join with recesses adapted thereto which, by being provided with essentially horizontal locking surfaces, limits vertical movement between two joined adjacent floor boards.
  • WO 97/47834 does also show how the tongue and groove with heels and recesses according to the invention is tooled by means of cutting machining.
  • This invention does also have the disadvantage that the best mode of joining floor boards includes longitudinal sliding for joining the short sides of the floor boards, which also here will require a play which will cause unwanted gaps between the floor boards. Dirt and moisture can penetrate into these gaps.
  • the invention relates to flooring material comprising sheet-shaped floor elements with a mainly square or rectangular shape, which floor elements are provided with edges, a lower side and an upper decorative layer, whereby the floor elements are intended to be joined by means of joining members.
  • the floor elements are provided with male joining members on a first edge, while a second edge of the floor elements is provided with a female joining member, whereby the male joining member is provided with a tongue and a lower side groove while the female joining member is provided with a groove and a cheek, the cheek being provided with a lip.
  • the floor elements are intended to mainly be joined together by tilting the floor element to be joined with an already installed floor element or a row of already installed floor elements, with the male joining member of the floor element angled downwards, and the first edge is allowed to be mainly parallel to the second edge of the already installed floor element or elements.
  • the tongue of the tilted floor element is inserted into the groove of the female joining member of the already installed floor element or elements, whereby the tilted floor element is turned downwards, with its lower edge as a pivot axis, so that the lip eventually snaps or falls into the lower side groove where the decorative upper layer of the floor elements are mainly parallel.
  • the floor elements, on a third edge, are provided with a male vertical assembly joining member, while a fourth edge is provided with a female vertical assembly joining member, the fourth edge being arranged on a side opposite to the third edge.
  • Two adjacent edges of a floor element, at the same time, and in the same turning motion, can be joined with a floor element adjacent to the first edge and a floor element adjacent to the third or fourth edge, wherein the male vertical assembly joining members are provided with mainly vertical lower cheek surfaces arranged parallel to the closest edge.
  • the lower cheek surfaces are intended to interact with mainly vertical upper cheek surfaces arranged on the female vertical assembly joining members so that two joined adjacent floor elements are locked against each other in a horizontal direction.
  • the male vertical assembly joining members are provided with a snapping hook and the female vertical assembly joining members are provided with a matching undercut.
  • the snapping hook and matching undercut by being provided with mainly horizontal locking surfaces, limit the vertical movement between two joined adjacent floor elements, and the snapping hook is positioned at an inward position with respect to the upper edge of the respective floor element and a guiding angle is formed above the undercut.
  • the force needed to overcome the static friction along the joint between two completely assembled male and female joining members is preferably larger than 10N per meter of joint length, suitably larger than 100N per meter of joint length.
  • the joint between a third and a fourth edge of two joined floor elements preferably comprises contact surfaces which are constituted by the horizontal locking surfaces of the under cuts and hooks, the mainly vertical upper cheek surfaces and lower cheek surfaces as well as upper mating surfaces.
  • the joint between two joined floor elements suitably also comprises cavities.
  • the snapping hook is constituted by a separate spring part which is placed in a cavity.
  • the undercut is constituted by a separate spring part which is placed in a cavity.
  • the spring part is suitably constituted by an extruded thermoplastic profile, a profile of thermosetting resin or an extruded metal profile.
  • the flooring material including the floor boards above is most suited when installing floors where it isn't desired to use glue. It is, however, possible to use glue or twin-faced adhesive tape in order to make the installation irreversibly permanent.
  • the glue or tape is then suitably applied on, or in connection to, possible cavities or faces below the upper mating surfaces.
  • figure 1 shows, in cross-section, a first and a second edge 2 I and 2 II respectively, during assembly.
  • the figure shows parts of a flooring material comprising sheet-shaped floor elements 1 with a mainly square or rectangular shape.
  • the floor elements 1 are provided with edges 2, a lower side 5 and an upper decorative layer 3.
  • the floor elements 1 are intended to be joined by means of joining members 10.
  • the floor elements 1 are provided with male joining members 10 I on a first edge 2 I while a second edge 2 II of the floor elements 1 are provided with a female joining member 10 II .
  • the second edge 2" is arranged on a side opposite to the first edge 2 I .
  • the male joining member 10 I is provided with a tongue 11 and a lower side 5 groove 12.
  • the female joining member 10 II is provided with a groove 13 and a cheek 14, the cheek 14 being provided with a lip 15.
  • the floor elements 1 are intended to mainly be joined together by tilting the floor element 1 to be joined with an already installed floor element 1 or a row of already installed floor elements 1, with the male joining member 10 I of the floor element 1 angled downwards and that the first edge 2 I is allowed to be mainly parallel to the second edge 2 II of the already installed floor element 1 or elements 1.
  • the tongue 11 of the tilted floor element 1 is then inserted into the groove 13 of the female joining member 10 II of the already installed floor element 1 or elements 1, whereby the tilted floor element 1 is turned downwards, with its lower edge as a pivot axis, so that the lip 15 eventually falls into the lower side 5 groove 12 where the decorative upper layer 3 of the floor elements 1 are mainly parallel.
  • the embodiment shown in figure 2 corresponds mainly with the one shown in figure 1 .
  • the lip 15 and lower side 5 groove 12 are, however, provided with a cam 16 and a cam groove 17 which provides a snap action locking.
  • the embodiment shown in figure 3 corresponds mainly with the one shown in figure 1 and 2 above.
  • the lip 15 and lower side 5 groove 12 are, however, provided with a cam 16 and a cam groove 17 which provides a snap action locking.
  • the embodiment shown in figure 4 corresponds mainly with the one shown in figure 1 above.
  • the lip 15 and cheek 14 is however shaped as a thin resilient section which provides a snap action locking.
  • Figure 5 shows, in cross-section, a third and a fourth edge 2 III and 2 IV respectively, of a floor element 1 according to any of the figures 1 to 4 .
  • the floor elements 1 are provided with a male vertical assembly joining member 10 III on a third edge 2 III while a fourth edge 2 IV is provided with a female vertical assembly joining member 10 II .
  • the fourth edge 2 IV is placed on a side opposite to the third edge 2 III .
  • the male vertical assembly joining members 10 III are provided with mainly vertical lower cheek surfaces 21 arranged parallel to the closest edge 2.
  • the lower cheek surfaces 21 are intended to interact with mainly vertical upper cheek surfaces 22 arranged on the female vertical assembly joining members 10 IV so that two joined adjacent floor elements 1 are locked against each other in a horizontal direction.
  • the male vertical assembly joining members 10 III are moreover provided with two snapping hooks 23 while the female vertical assembly joining members 10 IV are provided with matching undercuts 24, which by being provided with mainly horizontal locking surfaces limits the vertical movement between two joined adjacent floor elements 1.
  • the joint between a third and a fourth edge 2 III and 2 IV respectively of two joined floor elements 1 further comprises contact surfaces which are constituted by the horizontal locking surfaces of the undercuts 24 and hooks 23, the mainly vertical upper cheek surfaces 22 lower cheek surfaces as well as upper mating surfaces 25.
  • the joint between two joined floor elements 1 also comprises cavities 6.
  • the embodiment shown in figure 6 corresponds in the main with the one shown in figure 5 .
  • the male vertical assembly joining members 10 III are, however, provided with only one snapping hook 23 while the female vertical assembly joining members 10 IV are provided with a matching undercut 24, which by being provided with mainly horizontal locking surfaces limits vertical movement between to joined adjacent floor boards 1.
  • the embodiment shown in figure 7 corresponds in the main with the one shown in figure 6 .
  • the snapping hook 23 on the male vertical assembly joining member 10 III is, however, moved somewhat inwards in the floor element 1 whereby a guiding angle is formed above the undercut 24 of the female vertical joining member 10 IV .
  • the embodiment shown in figure 8 corresponds mainly with the one shown in figure 7 .
  • Both the third and the fourth edges 2 III and 2 IV respectively are, however, provided with male vertical assembly joining members 10 III .
  • the female vertical assembly joining members 10 IV of the vertical assembly joining profile 30 are equipped similar to the female vertical assembly joining members 10 IV in figure 7 above.
  • Two adjacent edges 2 of a floor element 1 can at the same time, and in the same turning motion, be joined with a floor element 1 adjacent to the first edge 2 I and a floor element 1 adjacent to the third or fourth edge 2 III and 2 IV respectively, when assembling floor elements 1 according to the above described embodiments.
  • the floor elements 1 most often comprise a core.
  • the core is most often comprised of particles or fiber of wood bonded with resin or glue. It is advantageous to coat the surface closest to the joint in cases where the floor will be exposed to high levels of moisture since the cellulose based material is sensitive to moisture. This coating may suitably incorporate resin, wax or some kind of lacquer. It is not necessary to coat the joint when it is to be glued since the glue itself will protect from moisture penetration.
  • the upper decorative layer 3 is constituted of a decorative paper impregnated with melamine-formaldehyde resin. One or more so called overlay sheets of a-cellulose, impregnated with melamine-formaldehyde resin may possibly be placed on top of the decorative layer.
  • the abrasion resistance may be improved by sprinkling one or more of the sheets with hard particles of for example alpha-aluminum oxide, silicon carbide or silicon oxide.
  • the lower side 5 may suitably be coated with lacquer or a layer of paper and resin.
