Definitions
- the invention relates to an arrangement of components with connecting elements according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Component is understood in particular to mean plate-shaped components, for example panel panels, floor panels, cladding panels, cladding strips or the like, in particular for cladding walls, ceilings or floors of buildings of all types.
- Components of this type can be single-layer or multi-layer panels or strips made of wood-based materials or on a wooden basis (laminates), in particular chipboard, MDF, HDF, OSB, hard fiber or plywood panels, which are optionally coated on one or both outer surfaces , The coating, the so-called wear layer, can with
- floor panels a decorative paper, for example in natural wood look, is widely used, which gives the impression of a solid wood panel. Since floors are subject to heavy wear in normal use, the surface of the decorative paper is sealed by a hard, in particular scratch and abrasion-resistant overlay made of, for example, resin-soaked alpha cellulose paper and thus protected against scratching and indentation.
- the invention is therefore directed to floor panels, so-called panels, which consist of wood material and have relatively hard surfaces made of plastic laminates.
- the preamble of claim 1 is known from the prior art.
- the invention particularly relates to the special type of training and Manufacture of the components and the connecting elements in order to optimally hold the components in a connected state in relation to one another, but to be able to detach the components from one another if necessary
- Known arrangements of components in the form of floor panels have grooves or tongues on their side edges, in particular those that can snap into the grooves.
- Such panels are particularly economical to manufacture, since only the mostly relatively soft middle layer of the panels, in particular made of wood, has to be specially processed to form the grooves and tongues serving as locking elements and not the relatively hard surfaces made of laminates.
- the middle layer is also referred to as the backing layer or core.
- this therefore usually consists of chipboard, MDF, HDF, hard fiber, voilwood or plywood material.
- the spring protruding beyond at least one side edge of the panels is particularly susceptible to damage, since due to its small cross-section and the large weight of a panel, it can hit particularly hard against obstacles. This applies to the manufacture, transport and installation.
- the groove is also susceptible because the panel in the area of the groove has a reduced wall thickness. The outer walls of the groove can even be thinner than the cross section of the tongue.
- Damaged springs or those of water-permeable or, water absorbing material making the tongue and groove connection also water permeable, to the joint spilled water therefore penetrates more easily in the • often liquid-absorbent agent layers (core.) Of the panel a, which aufq therefore Uillt and becomes unsightly. Moisture can also penetrate through the tongue and groove connection and remain on the underside of the panels for a long time. This moisture escapes observation or elimination and can in the long term cause the consequential damage typical of moisture, e.g. mold, bacteria, efflorescence, washout,
- EP 1 024 234 discloses panels of this type with a tongue and groove connection, locking means being provided on the grooves and tongues for latching in. Since the grooves and tongues are milled together with the locking means in one piece from the core consisting of HDF or MDF, the Strength properties of the grooves and tongues are determined by the material properties of the core of the panel. Therefore, the core of the panel is harder, stronger, heavier and more expensive than it is, taking into account the strength of the connecting and locking means necessary for secure connection is necessary for a floor covering.
- No. 5,295,341 discloses panels in which the fastening means are connected to the edges of the panels in a strip-like manner, so that the materials for panels and connecting means can be optimized in each case.
- barb-like anchors are formed on the connecting strips, which engage in undercuts in the panels. Such a geometry with undercuts can only be produced with great effort,
- WO-A-00/20706 and WO-A-00/20705 disclose floor panels which can be connected to one another by separate connecting profiles by moving the longitudinal edges horizontally towards one another or by vertically lowering the longitudinal edges.
- the connecting means must therefore be locked on both sides, ie with the longitudinal edges of two profiles to be connected. This increases the manufacturing effort, since the separate connecting means must be attached in the factory on one long side of a profile. Otherwise, the effort for the installer on site increases, since this is immediately before the Assemble the connecting means first on one soap with a panel and later on the other side with the panel to be connected.
- the connecting means are therefore not firmly connected to the panel on both sides, so that the risk of unlocking is doubled and the connection is less rigid and firm.
- There are also more machining steps to be performed per connection namely for two tongues and two grooves. One groove and one tongue are normally sufficient to establish a connection
- the invention provides an arrangement of components which can be connected by connecting means, in particular snap-in connecting means,
- At least one of the 'two connecting means, in particular the spring consists of a different material, such as the respective component to which the connecting means, in particular the spring, is permanently connected ' , makes it possible both for the components and to select the connecting elements, in particular the springs, optimally independently of one another with regard to the requirements and costs.
- the manufacturing effort is reduced since only a groove and a spring, which are necessary for the detachable connection, have to be produced,
- the connecting means can consist, for example, of PVC, plastics and the like, which is harder than the core of the panels and is produced on a special milling machine (for example, a pencil milling machine).
- a special milling machine for example, a pencil milling machine.
- the particularly heavy and / or stable material is only processed at the point where it is actually needed, while the core of the panel consists of light and inexpensive material.
- the weight of the panels is an important economic factor since it influences the transport costs and the price of the product, as well as consumer acceptance. As a result, there is great potential for savings in the fact that only the molded or fluid part is equipped with high mechanical strength.
- the connecting means for example in the form of a tongue or groove made of a different material than the respective component, is permanently connected to the respectively assigned component, errors during assembly are avoided.
- the connecting means cannot slip or shift along the long side, and liquid that gets into the joint of two components is prevented from penetrating deeper into the component or from reaching under the component and causing further damage there.
- Such an inseparable connection can be achieved, in particular, by positive locking.
- Such a connection can be produced particularly economically and is very firm if the connecting means are brought into contact with the respective component in the liquid or soft state, the liquid connecting means penetrates into openings and pores of the component, so that there is a connection by positive locking, a similar strength can be achieved by gluing,
- the positive connection is particularly effective when the still liquid or which connecting means is introduced into grooves with or without undercuts of the component, in particular along the front or long side of a plate-shaped component. Grooves without undercuts are particularly easy and quick to produce, for example, coming from the front over the entire length of the front. Grooves with undercuts are more complex to manufacture, but they hold the connecting means in them particularly firmly.
- the inner contour of the grooves can also be shaped as desired, for example by milling, breaking or ' less precise methods. This makes machining easier, cheaper and faster and the strength of the seat increases. Particularly precise machining tools can therefore be dispensed with,
- the grooves which are provided for releasable connection to the connecting means, are of unequal legs, that is to say are formed above, the components are easier to assemble.
- Such a leg protruding on the underside of a component can serve as a guide when moving the components towards one another.
- the connecting means have a higher load capacity in the direction of the above leg.
- Such a leg protruding on the underside of a component can intercept, for example, the loads that occur when the component is entered,
- the connecting means is made from extrudate, which can be brought into contact with the component when it is leaving the extruder, in order to connect to it.
- Extrudates are usually molded parts that are manufactured using an extruder. While such molded skins usually first harden to their final shape before being mixed with other ' components are connected, it is advantageously provided to connect them to the component in the still soft or liquid state. In this case, it is not necessary for the extruder to have a specific profile. Rather, it is important that the liquid or - soft extrudate is introduced into the groove of a component, and connects to it by filling, if the end face, i.e.
- an extruder in the sense of the invention can therefore also be a device from which a material which has not yet fully hardened can emerge in a controlled manner without the extruder giving it a specific shape.
- the shape is adapted to the final shape so that less material has to be removed during the finishing,
- a connection can be released if, on the one hand, it is so firm that it cannot be released unintentionally and, on the other hand, it can be released again non-destructively if necessary.
- connection should, if necessary, for example when laying errors, repair, disassembly, be easily detachable, for example by the fact that the two components or in the plane spanned by them plane away from each other 'are pulled apart, supportive or alternatively under a releasable locking a understood those in which the individual components can be released again by twisting or tilting if necessary.
- connection means have the capability and therefore the particular for filling groove (filling groove) of the component completely fill, whereby the contact area between connection means and fuel is lnut increased.
- the extrudate is therefore introduced into the filling groove in one step with the floor production, which can save costs.
- the non-detachable connecting means connected to the component also has the advantage that during the final processing, for example the milling out of a groove or tongue, the connecting means cannot slip and already have their final position the components are connected to one another more easily, more firmly and more securely. This is not the case when using a fully formed spring which is then firmly connected to the component
- the connecting means are not perceived and do not interfere with the appearance.
- the connecting means can be produced in a material-saving manner if their maximum thickness is also the maximum thickness of the springs,
- the flat undersurface of the panels has a positive effect on the optics, is easier to produce than a contoured undersurface and insulates the impact sound as cavities are avoided.
- Coated tops and bottoms ⁇ make the surface less sensitive to scratching, denting, moisture and ensure an attractive appearance.
- the groove is directly machined out of the component, in particular milled out, which makes the manufacture of such panels easier.
- the two Legs of the groove are essentially of the same length except for slight differences in length, which result from the fact that it can be provided that the components are close to one another in their area near the surface and are arranged at a distance from one another in the areas near the floor, forming a small gap secure abutting of the two tops of the panels even with certain unevenness of the surface.
- the width of the groove, which increases from the inside to the outside, and the thickness of the tongue, which decreases towards its free end, are coordinated with one another, so that in the case of components which are connected to one another, the groove and tongue surfaces are full, ie, form-fitting to one another so that the components are held in a defined mutual position,
- An essential part of the detachable connection is that the component-near surface of the projection formed on the tongue and the surface near the groove opening of the recess formed on the groove run obliquely or inclined in the direction of the component or groove opening, so that a
- the legs of the groove can be elastically expanded or moved away from the other leg; in particular, the two legs of the groove are designed in terms of material thickness in such a way that an elastic bending outwards is possible in order to allow the tongue to penetrate into the groove, the at least one projection formed on the tongue being able to overcome the inner edges at the groove opening, just by sliding on the inner edges and thereby the legs of the
- the locking elements provided for the fixed connection of the components which are formed by mutually adapted projections and depressions, are provided on the groove and on the tongue. These locking elements can be provided in sections on the groove and the tongue; ' Better grip and simplified manufacture ' is achieved, however, when this Locking elements extend over the entire length of the grooves and tongues provided,
- An embodiment of the arrangement according to the invention is particularly advantageous in which corresponding projections are formed on both sides of the tongue and corresponding depressions are formed on both groove surfaces, since this enables a double locking effect to be achieved and thus a firm cohesion of the components is achieved.
- the width of the components can be chosen arbitrarily. Components of the same width or components of different widths can be connected to each other, e.g. to achieve a certain floor design,
- a preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in claim 34 , the groove surfaces directly adjoining the groove opening when the tongue is inserted into the groove,
- An embodiment of the cross-section of the triangular projection or of the projection of the spring received by the recess in the groove facilitates the insertion of the spring into the groove or provides the spring with firm hold in the groove and nevertheless enables the material to be pulled out gently Tongue out of the groove
- the features of claim 43 are advantageous for inserting the tongue into the groove in order to avoid canting. Furthermore, the features of this claim contribute to the fact that the surfaces of the components to be connected fit snugly against one another or are brought closer to one another by snapping the projections of the tongue into the recesses of the groove, and the formation of gaps is avoided.
- the following working method preferably results for the production of the arrangement of components according to the invention.
- the free ends of the extrudates are then milled out so that they form spring profiles.
- a groove can also be milled from the extrudates.
- profiling of a rapidly solidifying extrudate can be carried out, even during the * extrusion process, and thus time and material and costs can be saved.
- the profiling can be carried out, for example, by reshaping or cutting realizable.
- plastic as the extrudate is preferred because it can be milled most precisely
- the advantage of the invention in relation to the prior art is, among other things, that the introduction of the extrudate in one operation with the B ⁇ utellfertigung can take place, the profiles have a very firm hold with the core material, the profiles can be milled much sharper and therefore better lockable when using plastic, the extrudates are inexpensive materials, an elastic property of the grooves or springs regardless of the material properties of the Core material is given and one can do without a sealing of the connecting surfaces, since the extrudates or the plastic, the water and moisture absorption is reduced or prevented.
- the milling material i.e. the material that was taken out of the plate when milling the grooves
- the wood material therefore does not have to be procured and transported, storage of the milling waste and its disposal is not necessary
- the extrudate can also extend to the surface of one or both components. It thus mechanically and optically forms an intermediate piece along the edges of the components. It therefore fulfills a double function, namely it serves as a connecting means and also fulfills aesthetic requirements protective and stabilizing functions, whereby it is not essential in the sense of the invention that the extrudate also serves as a connecting means,
- this edge can be machined more precisely and precisely, which makes the fit more precise. This prevents the connection from being unintentionally loosened and dirt from entering the connection. In addition, the joint becomes less visible.
- the edges of wood-based materials are usually particularly frequently provided with stiffings, ie upward-pointing openings, in the area of the surface that is at risk of impact. Spots are also created when working on the edges and can be clearly seen along the edges, especially in the case of installed panels, in backlight. That which reaches to the surface according to the invention Extrudate is able to avoid or cover these edges.
- the component which is usually moisture-absorbent, is protected against the absorption of water. As is well known, moisture leads to swelling, which makes the component unattractive.
- the extrudate which acts as an intermediate piece, can be produced in a wide variety of materials, structures and colors. Such intermediate pieces therefore form particularly decorative elements, in particular if they are colored, and influence the appearance from noble to rustic.
- extruded intermediate pieces also as part of the tongues or grooves, can be milled as required.
- edges of the elements can be shaped as required.
- B depressions and / or elevations in the joints are milled.
- Indentations and / or elevations can hide differences in height between individual surfaces of the components and / or spikes.
- a V-joint created in this way sets particularly rustic accents, while metal-colored spacers have a noble effect and give the impression of elaborately framed wooden planks.
- the fact that the extrudate is first connected to the component and then the extrudate is processed increases the accuracy of fit, the strength of the connection and water cannot penetrate into the component because of the excellent marginal fit,
- FIG. 2 shows the plate from FIG. 1 after being provided with extrudate
- FIG. 7 two components connected according to the invention in a second embodiment

- FIG. 2 shows the plate from FIG. 1 after the extrudate 40 has been introduced into the groove 5b.
- the extrudate 1 4 was introduced into the groove in the liquid or soft state and fills it completely, ie up to the groove base 1 1.
- the extrudate is firmly connected to the plate via the legs 3, 4 and the groove base, since the extrudate in the pores of the plate have penetrated or filled irregularities in the interior of the groove, the extrudate can also be such that it has the property of foaming, if the extrudate is particularly flowable, it should be introduced into the vertical groove 5b from above. This corresponds to a FIG. 3 rotated 90 ° to the right.
- On the end face 42 there remains an excess of extrusion which forms a nose 41.
- a spring 6 has been formed from the excess of the extrudate 40 which forms the nose 41 and which, for example, comprises the locking means 7 for connecting to a correspondingly designed groove 5a (not shown),
- the procedure for forming a spring shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is exemplary. With the same working steps it is possible to insert extrudate into the groove 5b and then to work an inner groove into this extrudate for connection with a tongue. According to the invention, there are therefore the following options; Forming only the tongue from foreign material, forming only the groove from foreign material, and forming the tongue and groove from foreign material.
- FIG. 8 shows that the inner contour of the groove 5b can also be shaped as desired, for example by milling, breaking or less precise methods than milling.
- the filling 40 therefore lies particularly well against the inner contour of the groove 5b, which improves the strength of the connection elevated.
- the extrudate 40 is positively connected to the interior of the groove 5b of the right panel 1, for example by gluing or filling in the still soft extrudate.
- the free end 6 of the extrudate 40 has been machined by milling, that there is a positive connection with the correspondingly shaped groove 5a of the adjacent left panel 2, however, according to the invention, a non-positive, releasable connection, not shown, of the end of the extrudate forming the spring 6 with the panel 2 can also be provided.

Snap in to ensure.
- the locking elements 7, 8 can also engage when the legs 3, 4 of the left panel 1 are not elastic.
- the groove 5a of the left panel 1 can, for example, have been produced from extrudate or the like, just like the tongue 6, ie, by filling or foaming a groove with a suitable, preferably elastic material and then milling the groove geometry into the original groove 5a brought material. In this case, it is not necessary for the legs 3, 4 of the panel, i.e. the core material, to yield elastically, which gives the connection a better appearance, and dirt and water can penetrate the connection more poorly.

- the right intermediate piece is inserted non-detachably in the groove 5b and at the same time forms the tongue ⁇ , while the left intermediate piece is only applied to the edge 42 of the left component and only partially forms the groove 5a and thus partially as a connecting means 1 7 ', 1 8' serves,
- the extrusion system can also act directly behind the milling machine, so that immediately behind the extrudate can be shaped into the milling head,
- the panels which are now equipped according to the invention on the end face of the longitudinal and transverse sides in turn reach the milling system for forming the desired tongue or groove shape.
- this step can also be carried out continuously directly behind the milling head and / or the extruder.
- Normal end soaps can also be provided with the extrudate without a groove, as a result of which an operation in the region of this end face can be omitted.
- the invention is not limited to connecting elements in the form of grooves and tongues. Rather, the tongue and groove connection serves as an example of a type of connection that can be realized either non-positively or positively.
