Abstract

The parquet system comprises tiles (1,2) or strips provided with grooves (3,4) on all sides and connecting strips (5) which fit into opposing groove cross-sections. The connecting strips are bevelled at an angle of 45 degrees (6) at both ends and on both sides. The connecting strips are provided in one or more places with notches to indicate saw cutting points.

Short indication: Parquet system

The invention relates to a parquet system comprising parquet tiles and / or parquet strips.

Floating parquet, that is, parquet that is not glued or glued to the substrate but which must remain absorbable, is usually provided with a tongue and groove connection. Not only is a brass a bit more difficult to manufacture than a groove, but in particular it has the risk of damaging it or even breaking it off completely or partially, as a result of which a good connection of neighboring tiles or strips can no longer be obtained. This risk of damage and breakage exists during manufacture, transport and laying.

The invention has for its object to provide a solution for this.

To this end, the parquet system according to the invention comprises parquet gels or strips which are provided with grooves on all sides, and in. two connecting strips opposite to each other groove sections. The connecting strips can of course be manufactured from plastic, so that the risk of damage, which in the case of a brass results in the fact that it forms part of the wood of the parquet part, is no longer present.

Preferably, the connecting strips are bevelled at both ends at both ends at 45 °, so that the strips that come together in a gel angle can be mitered.

Sliding the strips into the grooves of the parquet tiles or strips is facilitated if the connecting strips have rounded or possibly beveled corners in the cross-section.

The invention will be explained below with reference to the accompanying drawing of an exemplary embodiment.

FIG. 1 shows two parquet tiles with a connecting strip before assembly.

FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken on the line II-II in FIG. 1;

FIG. 3 shows a preferred embodiment of a connecting strip, wherein

FIG. 4 shows a detail on a larger scale.

It can be seen in fig. 1 that all tiles 1, 2 are provided with a groove 3, 4 on all sides.

Between each pair of adjacent tiles of adjacent tiles, a connecting strip 5 can be provided, as is again shown in section for assembly in FIG. 2. The cross-section of the connecting strip 5 is substantially rectangular, but all corners of the cross-section have a small rounding radius R or possibly a chamfer, so that strip 5 can be slid into the groove 4 more easily.

The width of strip 5 is, of course, preferably chosen such that it is double the depth of the grooves such as 4, so that after tapping the two tiles together, it engages the entire space of the grooves adjoining one another in the grooves. fill two tiles.

As is apparent from Fig. 1, the length of strip 5 is preferably chosen such that it corresponds to the external tile size, and then provided with bevels below 45 ", as indicated by 6, to each side, so that the strips are offset in the tile corners. bump into each other.

FIG. 3 gives details of a preferred embodiment of such a strip 5. This is then made of plastic material, wherein recesses 7 in the cross-section of the material can be provided as material saving.

For long strips, it is not always necessary to supply the strips at lengths corresponding to the strip length, but then several short strips can be used, whereby the assembly of the strips is simplified. In order to shorten the strips from a standard length, it can also be seen from the detail of Fig. 4 that notches such as 8, 8 'and 9 are arranged in one place (but it can also be in several places). These serve as an indication of cuts to be made for shortening a standard strip length. As the drawing shows, those notches 8, 9 are then preferably arranged in such a way that a point with a chamfer below 45 ° is created in order to be able to miter the scrips again at the corner of the parquet cone or parquet strip. .
