Description

Technisches Gebiettechnical field

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Unterstützung des Verlegens von Belägen mit einem Profilteil zum Messen, Anzeichnen, Schneiden und/oder Anreißen eines Bodenbelages wie bspw. Vinyl, Laminat oder Parkett gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a device for supporting the laying of coverings with a profile part for measuring, marking, cutting and/or scribing a floor covering such as vinyl, laminate or parquet according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Beim Verlegen oder Anbringen eines Belages (Klick-, Vinyl-, Fertigparkett-, Parkett, Boden-, Wand-Deckenpaneele, Kunststoffpaneelen, Metallpaneelen, Holzplatten, Gipskartonplatten, Fliesen, Korpus-Verbindungen im Möbelbau oder dergleichen), welches aus Plankenteilen gebildet ist, muss das letzte Element in der Reihe eingepasst werden. Dazu wird mit einem Maßband oder Zollstock zwischen der letzten verlegten Planke und der vorhandenen Wand unter Abzug der vom Hersteller angegebenen Dehnungsfugenbreite gemessen. Dieses Maß wird nun auf die zu schneidende Planke übertragen und angezeichnet. Mit einem Winkel oder bei schrägem Wandverlauf mit einer Schmiege wird nun die Schnittlinie auf der Planke angelegt und bei Vinylboden mit einem Messer angeritzt um diese anschließend an der Ritzlinie zu brechen. Bei Laminat und Parkett wird die Schnittlinie angezeichnet, um sie anschließend mit einer Stichsäge zu schneiden. Erst dann kann die auf Maß gebrachte Planke eingelegt werden.When laying or attaching a covering (click, vinyl, ready-made parquet, parquet, floor, wall-ceiling panels, plastic panels, metal panels, wooden panels, plasterboard, tiles, body connections in furniture construction or the like), which is formed from plank parts, the last element in the row must be fitted. To do this, use a tape measure or ruler to measure between the last plank laid and the existing wall, deducting the expansion gap width specified by the manufacturer. This measurement is now transferred to the plank to be cut and marked. With an angle or with a sloping wall with a bevel, the cutting line is now created on the plank and, in the case of vinyl flooring, scored with a knife in order to then break it at the score line. For laminate and parquet, the cutting line is marked and then cut with a jigsaw. Only then can the made-to-measure plank be inserted.

Wie aus Fig. 11 ersichtlich, kann in einer weiteren Ausführungsform das Distanzelement 5 auch alternativ oder zusätzlich mittels dem zweiten Arretiermittel 3 und/oder einem reversiblen Befestigungsmittel 18 an dem Profilteil 4 befestigbar sein, wobei das Befestigungsmittel 18 vorzugsweise eine Magnetverbindung ist.How out 11 can be seen, in a further embodiment, the spacer element 5 also alternatively or additionally by means of the second locking means 3 and / or a reversible fastening means 18 on the Profile part 4 can be fastened, the fastening means 18 preferably being a magnetic connection.

Der Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung besteht in erster Linie darin, dass nur ein Gerät zum Einsatz kommt. Aus ökonomischer Sicht bedeutet dies für einen Unternehmer eine Zeitersparnis von vorzugsweise bis ca. 30 Prozent, die zum Verlegen oder Anbringen eines Belags benötigt wird. Damit verringert sie effektiv Arbeitskosten und steigert den Gewinn. Für den Handwerker stellt die Vorrichtung eine Arbeitserleichterung dar, da er weniger Werkzeuge im Gebrauch hat, die er sonst ständig im "Verlegelauf" mitführen müsste. Die Qualität der Arbeit wird verbessert, da die Vorrichtung präzise Messungen/Zuschnitte erlaubt. Die Verletzungsgefahr durch Schnittverletzungen wird gesenkt. Damit ist sie auch für Heimwerker geeignet.The advantage of the device according to the invention is primarily that only one device is used. From an economic point of view, this means a time saving of preferably up to approx. 30 percent for an entrepreneur, which is required for laying or attaching a covering. It effectively reduces labor costs and increases profits. The device makes work easier for the craftsman, since he has fewer tools to use that he would otherwise have to carry with him all the time during the "laying run". The quality of the work is improved because the device allows precise measurements/cutting. The risk of injury from cuts is reduced. It is therefore also suitable for do-it-yourselfers.

Das Distanzelement 5 ist in Bezug auf einen definierten Winkel a vorzugsweise einrastbar, wobei der Winkel a vorzugsweise 90° beträgt.The spacer element 5 can preferably be latched in relation to a defined angle a, the angle a preferably being 90°.
