Abstract

L'invention concerne des composants destinés à la mise en oeuvre d'un revêtement, notamment d'un revêtement de sol. Lesdits composants comportent des panneaux (1, 2, 2a) présentant des éléments de couplage (3, 12, 6, 14) conçus de façon que deux panneaux (1, 2, 2a) peuvent être reliés perpendiculairement par rapport au joint commun (11) et parallèlement par rapport à la surface (9), ainsi que perpendiculairement par rapport à la surface commune (9). Un élément en forme de fil ou de tige (18, 22, 32) se trouve entre les panneaux (1, 2, 2a) dans une cavité (11, 23), ledit élément étant de préférence disposé entre les panneaux au moyen d'un système de pose. Le revêtement de sol selon l'invention permet notamment de couvrir des pièces de grande taille. Il est par ailleurs possible de créer de nouveaux effets optiques lorsque ledit élément en forme de fil ou de tige (18, 22, 32) est visible à la surface (9). Le joint (11) offre en outre une très bonne protection contre l'humidité et la poussière.
