Definitions
- the invention relates to a floor slab for equestrian sports arenas and sports fields.
- floor panels are known to a person skilled in the art, for example EP 0 667 927 B1 known.
- Floor panels for riding arenas should ensure both elasticity under load and sure-footedness for the horses. Depending on the nature of the soil and climatic conditions, they should also have the ability to store water and/or to drain excessive amounts of water.
- conventional floor panels are generally made from a plastic material (in particular PVC), preferably also at least partially from a corresponding recycling material.
- the floor panel for equestrian arenas and sports fields which can be placed on a (basically unchanged) subsurface, has at least one structural panel made of a plastic material, which has a base plate on whose upper side facing away from the subsurface there are a large number of knobs.
- the floor panel according to the invention also has a carpet floor, with the at least one structured panel on the upper side of the carpet floor facing away from the subsoil is arranged and further at least one connection is provided, through which the base plate of the at least one structural plate is attached to the carpet.
- the carpet on which the at least one structural panel is attached supports the surefootedness and the elasticity of the floor panel, with carpets being less harmful to the environment than plastic material.
- the carpet which is basically elastic, additional layers of elasticity between the floor panel and the subsurface can be dispensed with, which reduces the amount of material.
- the carpet supports the elasticity and the sure-footedness of the at least one structured panel due to its elasticity, so that in this floor panel the at least one structured panel can be replaced with a thicker base panel by a significantly thinner base panel on the carpet compared to conventional floor panels for equestrian sports arenas or sports fields the mass of the structural panel made of plastic material is significantly reduced and the floor panel thus contains even less environmentally harmful material.
- the floor panel according to the invention can be advantageously used particularly for outdoor equestrian sports arenas and also indoors (e.g. for tournament arenas for show jumping and/or dressage, riding arenas for vaulting and/or western riding, horse racing tracks, paddocks, stables and the like).
- the floor panel according to the invention is also suitable for other sports fields that require a floor with elasticity and a certain degree of moisture and possibly also sure-footedness (e.g. beach volleyball, tennis, hard court games, lawn games, etc.).
- the invention relates to the well-known standard term "carpet".
- the carpet used in the floor panel according to the invention means any carpet that is available as a standard floor covering on the market and is commonly used for living rooms, work rooms and the like.
- the carpet usually has an upper wear layer, which is usually textile (e.g. made of fibers), and a lower back or carrier layer for (safe and tear-resistant) laying and optionally also fixing on a respective floor surface, and optionally a middle layer with adhesive compound for Joining these two layers and/or further others Layers.
- the invention is not limited to any specific types or dimensions of carpeting.
- carpets with a slightly thicker layer can be used to increase elasticity.
- the at least one structural panel is preferably made of a plastic material selected from PE (polyethylene) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate), which materials are less environmentally harmful than PVC (polyvinyl chloride).
- the at least one structured panel can preferably be made at least partially from a recycling material. Since the base plate of the structured plate can be made thinner due to the use of carpeting, the structured plate can in principle be made of any plastic material, optionally also PVC (polyvinyl chloride), because of the reduced mass.
- the base plate of the at least one structural plate is preferably designed to be essentially planar.
- the layer thickness of the base plate is preferably at most about 20 mm, more preferably only at most about 10 mm, for example even only about 2 to 5 mm.
- the nubs and, if present, further structural elements on the base plate are preferably constructed as thinly as possible (for example with a maximum layer thickness of about 5 mm or only 2 mm).
- the one structural panel or each of a plurality of structural panels of the floor panel is attached to the carpeting by a plurality of connections.
- the at least one connection between the carpet and the at least one structured panel is formed by a fastening knob on the underside of the base plate of the structured panel facing the carpet and a receiving opening in the carpet for inserting or pushing through the fastening knob.
- the inside diameter of the receiving opening in the initial state is preferably slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the fastening nub.
- the lower backing layer of the carpet ensures a tear-resistant connection with these fastening knobs.
- the at least one connection can also be made by adhesive between the carpeting and the base plate of the at least one Structured plate be formed.
- a locally limited adhesive layer that is to say, as far as possible at one point rather than over a large area
- only a locally limited adhesive layer should be used between the carpet and the base plate of the at least one structural plate in order to avoid blocking the water permeability of the carpet.
- the at least one structural plate is preferably produced by an injection molding process.
- the at least one fastening knob can be integrated in one piece on the underside of the structural plate by the injection molding process.
- the nubs on the upper side of the base panel preferably have at least two different heights to promote sure-footedness, in particular for horses.
- rows of nubs of a first height and rows of nubs of a second height can be arranged alternately next to one another, or nubs at two different heights can be arranged in a matrix-like manner and offset from one another.
- nubs of only one height can be present on the base plate.
- the nubs on the base plate can each optionally be rod-shaped (i.e. bodies without a cavity) or tubular (all of the same type or different) along at least part of the height (i.e. bodies with a cavity), the second variant also having the advantage of further reducing the Mass of the structural panel made of plastic material, so that the floor panel contains even less environmentally harmful material.
- At least one spacer is provided between the carpet and the at least one structured panel.
- the distance formed by this at least one spacer is, for example, at most about 10 mm, preferably about 1 to 5 mm.
- Such a distance between the at least one structured panel and the carpet allows water to be distributed between them and thus to drain better through the carpet to the subsoil and/or flow to an edge area of the equestrian sport or sports field floor.
- the at least one spacer is provided, for example, by a projection on the underside of the structured panel facing the carpeting, or by a special structure (e.g. thicker outer circumference than the receiving opening).
- a fastening nub is formed in its end region to the structured plate.
- the carpet can basically have any shape and any size.
- a rectangular or square carpet is preferably used, particularly preferably a carpet measuring approximately 80 cm x 120 cm (i.e. Euro pallet size).
- the total layer thickness of the carpeting is preferably at least about 0.25 cm and at most about 4 cm, for example about 0.5 cm, 1.0 cm or 2 cm.
- the at least one structured plate (in particular its base plate) can also in principle have any shape and any size.
- a structural plate with a rectangular or square base plate for example with a size of approximately 20 cm x 20 cm or 40 cm x 40 cm or approximately 80 cm x 120 cm, is preferably used. Smaller structural panels are preferably used because they are easier to manufacture (e.g. in smaller injection molds using the injection molding process), which is why several structural panels are preferably attached next to one another on one carpet.
- adjacent ones of the plurality of structural panels are preferably each coupled to one another.
- the coupling of the adjacent structural panels increases the stability of the floor panel structure, which is advantageous because the attachment to the carpeting cannot usually be very fixed.
- the couplings are preferably designed somewhat loosely, so that the structural panels adjacent to one another can be somewhat movable relative to one another, which increases the elasticity of the entire floor panel structure.
- the coupling of the adjacent structural panels on the carpet can be achieved, for example, in that the structural panels adjacent to one another each have at least one knob in the edge region of the respective structural panel.
- These nubs can be designed and arranged in the edge regions ("edge nubs") of the adjacent structured panels in such a way that they can be directly connected to one another, which can be achieved, for example, by one of the adjacent structured panels having at least one edge nub that is configured and is arranged to be embraced and the other of the adjacent structural panels at least has an edge nub that is configured and arranged to engage around the edge nub of one structural panel.
- one edge nub is rod-shaped and narrow and the other edge nub is tubular and wider for gripping around.
- additional connecting elements can be provided to connect these edge knobs of the structural panels that are adjacent to one another.
- These additional connecting elements can, for example, be disc-shaped with a hole for embracing the two adjacent edge nubs or with two holes each for enclosing one of the adjacent edge nubs.
- the structured panels can optionally have one or preferably more edge nubs on each edge, with these edge nubs preferably also being arranged along the rows of nubs or the nub matrix in the inner region of the structured panel.
- the edge nubs on a structured panel and/or on adjacent structured panels can also have different heights, which are preferably also arranged along the rows of nubs of different heights or the nub matrix in the inner region of the structured panels.
- the different edges of a structural panel can be equipped with different types of edge nubs or all edges can be equipped with the same type of edge nubs, in the first case all the structural panels can be designed the same and in the second case the different structural panels are provided with different types of edge nubs.
- the base plate of the at least one structural plate has a plurality of through-openings in its layer thickness direction, which allow water to drain through the base plate to allow excess water on the base plate to drain away quickly.
- the carpeting which is basically already somewhat permeable to water, preferably also has a plurality of through-openings in its layer thickness direction in order to increase its water permeability.
- the through-openings of the base plates and the carpeting can preferably be at least one of matched positions, substantially the same dimensions and substantially the same total number.
- the through openings of the base plate also have the advantage of further reducing the mass of the structural plate made of plastic material, so that the base plate contains even less environmentally harmful material.
- the sum of Cross-sectional areas of the through openings of the base plate is, for example, at least 25%, preferably about 25-50% of the base plate area.
- the at least one structured plate can also have open edge incisions.
- the open edge incisions in a plurality of structural panels are preferably matched to one another, so that the open edge sections of structural panels adjacent to one another together form a common through-opening.
- a plurality of bowls for storing water are also provided on the upper side of the base plate, facing away from the carpet, of the at least one structured plate. These cups are preferably formed by thin plastic elements.
- the subject matter of the invention is also an equestrian sport or sports arena floor which has an arrangement laid on a substructure of several riding arena floor panels of the invention which are arranged next to one another and are described above.
- the same advantages can be achieved with this riding or sports ground floor as explained above in connection with the floor panel according to the invention.
- the several floor panels are preferably arranged in the equestrian sport or sports field floor with a joint spacing (e.g. about 2 to 3 cm) to adjacent floor panels on the subsoil. This allows the bottom panels to expand a little with heat without damaging each other or snapping upwards.
- the equestrian sport or sports field floor preferably has a footing layer above the several floor panels.
- a water-permeable retaining layer can be provided between this footing and the floor panels.
- at least one drainage pipe can optionally be arranged between the subsoil and the floor panels.
- the drainage pipes can be connected to a water reservoir, thereby forming an ebb and flow system.
- the subject of the invention is also a method for producing the above-described floor panel of the invention, which comprises the steps of producing at least one structural panel from a plastic material by an injection molding process, providing a carpet (preferably simply shopping in the market) and attaching the at least one structural panel produced has at least one connection on the surface facing away from the surface of the carpet provided.
- top refers to the usage state of the floor panel in which it is placed on a substructure.
- the equestrian sport or sports ground floor can be used for indoor or outdoor equestrian sports fields (e.g. for tournament arenas for show jumping and/or dressage, riding arenas for vaulting and/or western riding, horse racing tracks, paddocks, stables and the like) or also for other sports fields (e.g. beach volleyball, tennis, Hard court games, lawn games, etc.) are used.
- indoor or outdoor equestrian sports fields e.g. for tournament arenas for show jumping and/or dressage, riding arenas for vaulting and/or western riding, horse racing tracks, paddocks, stables and the like
- other sports fields e.g. beach volleyball, tennis, Hard court games, lawn games, etc.
- the term "ground” in this context includes any ground.
- the base 12 is preferably essentially flat, but can also have bumps. It can be a natural subsoil (e.g. earth, gravel) or an artificial subsoil (eg concrete floor).
- the substrate 12 also includes interior and exterior substrates.
- the floor panels 18 are preferably all arranged essentially in the same plane and are preferably aligned essentially parallel to one another, resulting in an essentially planar surface for the arrangement of the floor panels 18 .
- the floor panels 18 are preferably each arranged with a joint distance 45 (e.g. about 2 cm) between adjacent floor panels 18 on the substructure 12, so that the floor panels 18 can expand somewhat due to heat without damaging one another or snapping out upwards.
- the floor panels 18 each consist of a normal carpet 30, which can be easily purchased in the market for e.g. living rooms, work rooms and the like, and at least one structural panel 20 of a Plastic material such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or more preferably PE (polyethylene) or PET (polyethylene terephthalate), preferably at least partly made from a recycled material.
- a Plastic material such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or more preferably PE (polyethylene) or PET (polyethylene terephthalate), preferably at least partly made from a recycled material.
- the carpeted floors 30 each have, for example, an upper wear layer 32a formed, for example, of fibers and being textile, and a lower backing layer 32b (illustrated in Fig Figures 4A and 4B ) and optionally a middle layer with adhesive compound for connecting these two layers 32a, 32b.
- the total layer thickness of the carpeting 30 is, for example, about 0.5 cm, 1.0 cm or 2 cm. In order to achieve greater elasticity of the floor panels 18, the carpets 30 can also have greater total layer thicknesses of, for example, 2 to 4 cm, for example on harder substructures 12.
- the structural plates 20 each have a relatively thin, essentially planar base plate 21 with a layer thickness of, for example, about 2 to 5 mm, on the upper side of which facing away from the base 12 a multiplicity of knobs 22 are provided.
- the nubs 22 can optionally also have internal cavities.
- the structural panels 20 are each arranged on the upper side of the carpet 30 facing away from the substrate 12 and are fastened to the respective carpet 30 by means of connections 40 . A possible construction of the connections 40 is based on the Figures 3 to 5 explained.
- a footing 14 is applied to the upper side of the floor panel arrangement.
- the footing 14 consists essentially of sand or a mixture of sand and shavings and/or the footing 14 has an artificial turf surface, rolled turf surface, natural turf surface or the like, and has a height of, for example, about 2 to 10 cm.
- a water-permeable retaining layer 15 made, for example, of crushed stone, chippings, gravel and/or coarse sand.
- a retaining layer 15 allows water to flow out of the footing 14 through the floor panels 18 and, on the other hand, the retaining layer 15 prevents material from the footing 14 from penetrating into openings in the floor panels 18 so they don't clog.
- a water-permeable gravel base layer 16 can be applied, which can serve as a drainage unit.
- the gravel base layer 16 has a height of about 2 to 15 cm, for example, and the gravel elements of the gravel base layer 16 have a size of about 8 to 16 mm, for example.
- drainage pipes can also be laid underneath the floor panels 18 on the subsoil 12 in addition or as an alternative to the gravel base layer 16, via which moisture or water can be removed or supplied to the equestrian sport or sports field floor 10 as a whole.
- the gravel base layer and/or the drainage pipes can be connected to a water reservoir, for example, which is outside of the actual floor 100 of the equestrian sport or sports field.
- a system with drainage and water reservoir can also be referred to as an ebb and flow system, as is the case, for example, in WO 2011/107114 A1 is described in detail.
- the floor panels 18 are each laid with their carpeting 30 directly on the respective subsoil 12 or, if present, on the gravel base layer 16 .
- An additional layer of elasticity is generally not required due to the elasticity of the carpet 30, but is not excluded within the scope of the invention.
- sectional view of 1 is essentially only schematic. Ie the sizes and proportions of the elements and layers in 1 are not necessarily represented realistically as they would correspond to the given exemplary numerical values for embodiments of the invention.
- multiple structural panels 20n may be arranged and secured to a carpeted floor 30 .
- the carpet floor 30 and the structural panels 20n are each designed to be rectangular or square.
- the carpet floor 30 has a size of about 80 cm x 120 cm (ie Euro pallet size) and a total of six structural panels 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d, 20e, 20f, each measuring about 40 cm x 40 cm, are arranged on it.
- the carpet 30 and the structural panels 20 can in principle each have any shape and have any size.
- the adjacent structural plates 20a-b, 20c-d, 20e-f, 20a-c, 20b-d, 20c-e, 20d-f are each coupled to one another by at least one coupling 50.
- Possible constructions of these couplings 50 are based on the Figures 6A to 7B explained.
- the couplings 50 can be designed somewhat loosely so that the structural panels 20 adjacent to one another can each be moved somewhat relative to one another, as a result of which the elasticity of the entire floor panel 18 is increased.
- a single structural panel 20 can be arranged and fastened on a carpet floor 30 .
- the carpet floor 30 and the structured panel 20 are each designed to be rectangular or square.
- the carpet 30 and the structural panel 20 each have a size of, for example, about 80cm x 120cm (ie Euro pallet size).
- the carpet floor 30 and the structured panel 20 can in principle also have any shapes and any sizes for this embodiment.
- the carpet 30 can easily be purchased as standard carpet on the market. The purchased carpet is then only slightly processed to have a suitable size (e.g. Euro pallet size) and equipped with a few openings (as in 4 and 5 illustrated).
- a suitable size e.g. Euro pallet size
- a few openings as in 4 and 5 illustrated.
- the structural panels 20 are typically manufactured by an injection molding process.
- the structured plates 20 are therefore one-piece components (including the base plate, knobs and, if necessary, further components).
- multiple smaller structural panels 20n e.g., about 20cm x 20cm or approximately 40cm x 40cm
- smaller structural panels 20 are easier to manufacture (e.g., in smaller injection molds).
- the structured plate 20 has a multiplicity of nubs 22, nubs 22a of a first height and nubs 22b of a second height being preferably provided which are smaller than the first height.
- the nubs 22a, 22b could also be arranged in a matrix-like manner and offset from one another.
- the structured plate 20 also has nubs 22z in the edge area (ie nubs 22az of the first height in the edge area and nubs 22bz of the second height in the edge area).
- nubs 22z in the edge area of the structured plate 20 are used in particular later on the basis of 6 and 7
- the nubs 22az, 22bz in the edge area are aligned with the nubs 22ax, 22bx in the inner area, ie arranged along the same rows of nubs 22a of the first height or nubs 22b of the second height or in the same matrix distribution .
- the base plate 21 of the structural plate 20 has a plurality of through-holes 24 for water flow extending throughout the base plate 21 in the layer thickness direction of the base plate 21 .
- the through-openings 24 are essentially circular and have a diameter in the range of approximately 2 to 4 cm.
- open edge incisions 25 are provided in the edge regions of the structured plate, which accordingly have the shape of a part of a circle and which, together with the open edge incisions 25 of a respective adjacent structured plate, also form passage openings for water to flow through.
- the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the through openings 24 and open edge incisions 25 of the base plate 21 is, for example, about 25-50% of the base plate area, on the one hand to allow a large water flow and on the other hand to significantly reduce the amount of plastic material of the base plate 21.
- the carpeting 30 under the structural panels 20 is basically a bit permeable to water. As in Figure 4A and 5 shown, but the carpet 30 also has through-openings 34 in the region of the through-openings 24 and possibly also the open edge incisions 25 of the base plate 21 in order to increase the water permeability.
- the through-openings 34 in the carpet 30 have approximately the same or smaller diameters (e.g. approximately 0.5 to 2 cm) than the through-openings 24 in the base panel 21 of the structured panel 20.
- the structural plates 20 in this exemplary embodiment can preferably additionally have a plurality of wells 26 for storing water on the upper side of the base plate 21 .
- the cups 26 are formed, for example, by roughly annular frame structures on a closed section of the base plate 21 .
- the frame structures are designed to be as thin as possible (eg, approximately 2 to 5 mm) in order to keep the amount of plastic material of the structural plate 20 as small as possible.
- the structured plate 20 is fastened in this exemplary embodiment by a plurality of connections 40 on the carpet 30, each of which is formed by a fastening knob 28 on the underside of the base plate 21 of the structured plate 20 facing the carpet 30 and a receiving opening 36 in the carpet 30.
- the fastening knobs 28 are also injected on the underside of the structured plate 20 during the injection molding process and are thus integrated in one piece with the base plate 21 .
- the attachment knobs 28 can be positioned in the areas of the cups 26 where there is no water flow through the structural plate 20 , wherein the number of attachment knobs 28 can be relatively small and thus less than the number of cups 26 .
- the receiving openings 36 in the carpeting 30 are positioned corresponding to the mounting knobs 28 of the structural panel 20 .
- the inside diameter of the receiving openings 36 is slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the fastening knobs 28, so that the fastening knobs 28 are at least somewhat clamped when they are inserted into the receiving opening 36.
- the back layer 32b of the carpet 30 forms a tear-resistant connection with the fastening knobs 28 of the structured panel 20.
- these connections 40 do not achieve a fixed attachment of the structured panel 20 to the carpet 30, which is why the Structural plates 20 are additionally coupled to each other, as already mentioned above.
- the fastening knobs 28 preferably protrude completely through the receiving openings 36 in the carpet and a little further (for example approximately 2 to 10 mm) in the direction of the subsurface 12 .
- This protrusion of the fastening knobs 28 short projections 22 are formed on the underside of the carpet 30, through which the elasticity of the floor panel 18 can be further increased.
- 20 spacers are provided between the carpet 30 and the structural panels.
- the gap formed in this way with a height of about 1 to 5 mm, for example, allows the water to spread more easily between the structured panels 20 and the carpeting 30 and thus drain better through the carpeting 30 to the subsurface 12 and/or to an edge area of the equestrian sport or Sports ground floor 10 flow.
- these spacers are formed by projections 27 on the underside of the base plate 21 of the structured plate 20 facing the carpeted floor 30 .
- the spacers can also be formed by the floor attachment knobs 28, which for this purpose have a slightly larger outer diameter in their edge section near the base plate 21 of the structured plate 20, so that this edge section cannot penetrate into the receiving opening 36 of the carpeted floor 30.
- the projections 27 and/or the fastening knobs 28 with their special edge sections can also be injected on the underside of the structured plate 20 during the injection molding process and can thus be integrated in one piece with the base plate 21 .
- FIG. 6A In the embodiment of Figure 6A are two adjacent structural plates 20a and 20b coupled together by a coupling 50, which is formed by an edge nub 22bzi of a lower height and a smaller diameter for gripping around and an edge nub 22ato a higher height and one larger diameter is formed with an inner cavity for embracing.
- a coupling 50 which is formed by an edge nub 22bzi of a lower height and a smaller diameter for gripping around and an edge nub 22ato a higher height and one larger diameter is formed with an inner cavity for embracing.
- These two edge knobs 22bzi, 22a for the coupling are positioned in the edge regions of the structured panels 20a, 20b such that they are positioned essentially at the same point when the structured panels 20a, 20b are positioned adjacent to one another.
- One structural panel 20a with the short rod-shaped, narrow edge knobs 22bzi is first placed on the carpet 30, and then the other structured panel 20b with the longer, tubular, wide edge knobs 22azu is placed on the carpeted floor 30, with the tubular edge knobs 22azu on the other short, narrow edge knobs 22bzi set to embrace the other edge knobs 22bzi.
- This means that these two edge knobs 22bzi, 22azu of the two structured panels 20a, 20b can be linked directly to one another.
- the structural plates 20a, 20b each have one or more such edge nubs for corresponding one or more couplings 50 on their edges to be coupled.
- two adjacent structural panels 20a and 20b are coupled to one another by a linkage 50 formed by a higher-height, smaller-diameter gripping edge knob 22azi and a lower-height, larger-diameter edge knob 22b with an internal gripping cavity.
- These two edge knobs 22azi, 22b for the coupling are positioned in the edge regions of the structural panels 20a, 20b in such a way that they are essentially positioned at the same point when the structural panels 20a, 20b are positioned adjacent to one another.
- One structured panel 20a with the long, rod-shaped, narrow edge knobs 22azi is first placed on the carpet 30, and then the other structured panel 20b with the short, tubular, wide edge knobs 22bzu is placed on the carpeted floor 30, with the tubular edge knobs 22bzu around the other narrow edge knobs 22azi set to embrace the other edge knobs 22azi.
- these two edge knobs 22azi, 22bzu the two structural plates 20a, 20b can also be linked directly to each other.
- the structural plates 20a, 20b each have one or more such edge knobs for corresponding one or more couplings 50 on their edges to be coupled.
- the edge knobs 22azi, 22bzu which can be connected to one another are also in this case preferably dimensioned so that they do not interlock tightly but are somewhat loosely connected.
- two adjacent structural panels 20a and 20b are coupled to one another by two couplings 50, both of which are formed by a respective edge knob 22z on the two structural panels 20a, 20b and an additional connecting element 23.
- the two edge knobs 22z of a coupling 50 can basically each have any (ie first or second) height, have the same height or different heights, basically have any (ie narrow or wide) diameter, have the same diameter or different diameters.
- the additional connecting elements 23 are disc-shaped, for example, and are designed with two holes 23o each for embracing one of the two adjacent edge knobs 22z.
- the structural panels 20a, 20b can both be placed on the carpet 30 in any order, and then two mutually positioned edge knobs 22z of the structural panels 20a, 20b are encompassed by an additional connecting element 23.
- the structural plates 20a, 20b each have one or more edge nubs for corresponding one or more couplings 50 on their edges to be coupled.
- the connecting element 23 and the edge nubs 22z are preferably dimensioned such that they do not mesh closely so that the edge nubs 22z are connected rather loosely are.
- two adjacent structural panels 20a and 20b are coupled to one another by two couplings 50, both of which are formed by a respective edge knob 22z on the two structural panels 20a, 20b and an additional connecting element 23.
- the two edge knobs 22z of a coupling 50 can basically each have any (ie first or second) height, have the same height or different heights, basically have any (ie narrow or wide) diameter, have the same diameter or different diameters.
- the additional connecting elements 23 are, for example, disc-shaped and designed with a hole 23o for embracing the two adjacent edge knobs 22z.
- the structural panels 20a, 20b can both be placed on the carpet 30 in any order, and then two mutually positioned edge knobs 22z of the structural panels 20a, 20b are encompassed by an additional connecting element 23.
- the structural plates 20a, 20b each have one or more edge nubs for corresponding one or more couplings 50 on their edges to be coupled.
- the connecting element 23 and the edge nubs 22z are preferably dimensioned such that they do not mesh closely so that the edge nubs 22z are connected rather loosely are.
- the different edges of a structural panel can be equipped with different types of edge nubs or all edges can be equipped with the same type of edge nubs, whereby in the first case all the structural panels can be designed in the same way and in the second case the different structural panels are provided with different types of edge nubs.
- the structural panels can also have one or more different types of coupling.
- the edge knobs 22z of adjacent structural panels 20 can be directly combined with one another at one edge (such as Figure 6A or 6B ) and connected to one another at another edge via an additional connecting element 23 (e.g Figure 7A or 7B ).
