Definitions

  • the invention relates to an element for a floor covering with a thin middle layer of rigid material, in particular with a middle layer of a wood material, having the coupling profiles for coupling further, the same elements.
  • the Coupling profiles are shaped in the manner of a tongue and groove joint and two Long edges of the element and possibly worked out at two transverse edges.
  • the coupling profiles allow a permanent assembly of the elements without additional Aids such as e.g. Glue.
  • the execution of the coupling profiles considered in Specifically, the material properties of the middle layer material to be used.
  • Glueless coupling profiles can be easily divided into two main groups. To the one in so-called “click” connections, in which in addition to the known Coupling profiles are still provided elastic locking profiles and / or the coupling profile is designed to be elastic. On the other hand, there are elements known, which can be added by pivoting and thereby by the positive engagement the coupling profiles during pivoting no elastic movement of the coupling profile need.
  • Parquet floors have elements with glueless coupling profiles as parquet floors widespread found.
  • Parquet floors are characterized Middle layers of solid wood, on which also cover layers and Gegenzug harshen are glued.
  • the cover layers and counter layers are of their own Strengths and material properties such that they work out a Coupling profiles or portions of a coupling profile are suitable. Therefore, it stands also with parquet floors, the entire element thickness to work out the glueless Coupling profiles available.
  • Parquet floors with glueless coupling profiles are made from 20mm down to 13mm.
  • cover layers have low strength have found widespread use as finished floors with glueless coupling profiles. Such finished floor coverings also have middle layers on top layers and counter layers are glued on.
  • the cover layers can be made of a variety of Materials such. As cork, linoleum, rubber, veneer or other Coverings exist. As backing layers can be simple papers and / or materials such as cork, cardboard, natural and artificial insulation boards, etc. are used. In contrast to the two aforementioned types laminate flooring and parquet floors can not here the total thickness of the element for working out the coupling profiles be used.
  • Both the outer layers and the counter layers are due to their material properties, especially because of the low density and low strength properties so that they do not work out the coupling profiles or a portion of the coupling profiles are suitable.
  • the for middle classes of finished floor coverings with low-strength cover layers are used Wood materials can therefore in contrast to laminate floors or parquet on the Cover and the counter layers no additional strength and additional gain in strength reach for the coupling profile.

  • the minimum total thickness of the floor element is first determined by the middle layer, from which the coupling profiles are worked out, and only then from the Strengths of the outer layer and the Gegenzug harsh determined.
  • the strengths of the deck and Counter layers can vary depending on the design, the middle layer with the machined coupling profile is according to the present state of the art of 7 to 10mm made.
  • the dimensioning of the coupling profiles is based on the material-specific strength values of the middle class and at the disposal standing middle layer thickness. In the aforementioned construction arise existing State of the art Total thicknesses of a floor element of 10 to 15mm.
  • the stability of a coupling profile can only take into account the superimposed Forces acting on the laid floor coverings are assessed.
  • the in horizontal Directional shrinkage stresses can not be considered in isolation, because by simultaneously acting dynamic loading, e.g. Committing, vertical Movements induced in the verkuppelten profile.
  • the load capacity of a Coupling profile decreases sharply when the superimposed vertical movements of the laid floor covering lead to movements within the coupling profile and / or for splitting the middle layer and thereby the functional failure of the coupling profile or a portion of the coupling profile lead.
  • a mere scale reduction of the coupling profile also leads to the accuracy with which the elements must be pivoted together increases.
  • the known element has at least one first longitudinal edge with a groove on, which has a long groove cheek and a short groove cheek, wherein the groove is formed is that when installed it receives a spring of a second element, so that the two connected elements against a vertical movement and against a horizontal separation are secured.
