Definitions
- the invention relates to a trim panel having two pairs of opposite side edges, wherein at least one side edge pair is provided with coupling means, which are formed substantially in the form of a groove and a spring and extending along the respective side edge.
- trim panels are well known. For example, be on the EP 1 036 244 B1 directed.
- the generic panels are usually made by substantially forming cuboidal panels, i. Raw panels whose side surfaces associated with the side edges substantially orthogonal to the loading surface, machined, for example by milling to form the coupling means on at least one of the side surface pairs, in the form of a groove in the region of a side surface and a spring in the region other side surface.
- the aim of this machining is always to achieve surfaces as smooth as possible in order to move when installing the cladding panels two interconnected via tongue and groove panels in the longitudinal direction of the respective side edge relative to each other.
- the "boundary surface” is understood to be that surface which starts from the side surface of the respective side edge, the groove rotates with a surface normal pointing into the groove, or the spring revolves with a surface normal pointing away from the spring, and on the other side of the groove or the spring ends again on the side surface of the side edge.
- the friction between the groove of one panel and the spring of the other panel is increased, so that a relative displacement of the two interconnected panels in the longitudinal direction of the groove or the spring is difficult.
- the gap formation is counteracted at the panel side extending orthogonally to this longitudinal direction. That when the trim panel is a rectangular trim panel with a short side and a long side, the formation of gaps on the short side of the panel can be counteracted by roughening at least on the long side at least a portion of the groove or tongue and groove boundary surface.
- the provision of a roughening in the region of the groove or / and the spring of the short side of the panel has a reduction in the tendency to form crevices on the long side of the panel.
- the at least one section of the boundary surface provided with the roughening extends over substantially the entire length of the respective side edge and also in the circumferential direction of the boundary surface over the substantially entire circumference of the boundary surface , Not least for manufacturing reasons, however, it may also be desirable that the provided with the roughening at least a portion of the boundary surface extends only over part of the length of the respective side edge and / or in the circumferential direction only over part of the boundary surface.
- the friction between the boundary surface of the groove and the corresponding boundary surface of the spring can be further increased by providing at least a portion of the boundary surface of the groove and at least a portion of the boundary surface of the spring with a roughening Part are provided on mutually complementary portions of the boundary surfaces of tongue and groove.
- a "complementary" in the sense of this claim two sections of the boundary surfaces of tongue or groove one and the same panel are to be considered if, when connecting two identical panels provided with a roughening portion of the groove of a panel and provided with a roughening section of Spring of the other panel in the connected state of these two panels abut each other.
- the roughening can be designed in different ways:
- At least one section provided with a roughening can be formed by a toothing.
- the tooth follower direction of the toothing extends substantially in the longitudinal direction of the respective side edge, while the tooth extension direction extends substantially in the circumferential direction of the groove or spring.
- the “tooth following direction” is understood to be that direction in which the teeth of the toothing follow one another; in a conventional gear so the circumferential direction of the gear.
- the term “tooth extension direction” is understood to mean that direction in which the individual tooth extends; in a conventional spur gear so the axial direction.
- the toothing can be formed for example by a substantially non-cutting machining, such as by impressions, notching or the like. Additionally or alternatively, however, it is also possible for the teeth to be formed by machining, for example by piercing, milling or the like. In both alternatives for producing the toothing, however, it is advantageous to use a tool whose rotational speed is matched to the feed rate of the panel, that its peripheral speed substantially coincides with the feed rate of the panel.
- At least one provided with a roughening portion of a plurality of wood fibers may be formed, which protrude from the surface of the respective portion of the boundary surface.
- the surface may be treated with an agent, for example with a water-dilutable paint (such as a plasticizer-free aqueous copolymer dispersion) which at least partially removes the fibers from their composite material, for example solid wood, MDF or another wood-based material, sets up and fixes.
- a water-dilutable paint such as a plasticizer-free aqueous copolymer dispersion
- At least one section provided with a roughening can be formed by a plurality of particles which are applied to the surface of the respective section of the boundary surface.
- these particles are, for example, particles of micronized polypropylene wax into consideration, which have a size of between about 30 microns and 75 microns.
- these particles can be bonded to the surface by means of an adhesion promoter, for example a water-dilutable paint (for example a plasticizer-free aqueous copolymer dispersion) be connected to the respective portion of the boundary surface.
- At least one core of the panel can be formed from a wood material, for example solid wood, a chipboard, an MDF board or the like.
- a wood material for example solid wood, a chipboard, an MDF board or the like.
- other materials for example compact laminate, plastic or the like.
- the coupling means may be formed with integrated locking means which extend in the longitudinal direction of the respective side edge.
- This locking means can be formed, for example, in one piece from the core material. In principle, however, it is also conceivable to form the locking means and / or the coupling means in or on a coupling unit connected to the core of the panel.
- This coupling unit can for example be connected to the core of the panel by injecting a suitable material, for example plastic, a wood extrudate or the like, into a prepared recess in the side surface of the panel and subsequently machining it to form the coupling means and / or the locking means , Alternatively, however, it is also possible to insert a prefabricated part with prefabricated coupling means and / or locking means in the prepared recess.
- a suitable material for example plastic, a wood extrudate or the like
- the invention can be used when the trim panel is a floor panel, especially if the floor panel is intended for floating installation and / or laying without the use of adhesive to connect adjacent panels.
- Fig. 1 is a panel according to the invention generally designated 10.
- the panel 10 is formed as a rectangular panel and comprises two long sides 10a and 10b and two short sides 10c and 10d, which are each arranged in pairs opposite one another.
- the panel 10 is provided on both the long sides 10a and 10b as well as on the short sides 10c and 10d with coupling means which the connection of the panel 10 with in the longitudinal direction L or in the transverse direction Q adjacent panels 10 ', 10 ",. .. serve (see Fig. 2 ).
- the coupling means 12 are formed essentially in the form of a groove 12a provided on the long side 10a and a spring 12b provided on the long side 10b, which together form the coupling means of the long side, and a groove 12c provided on the short side 10c and one on the short side 10d provided spring 12d, which together form the coupling means of the short side.
- These coupling means 12 may be in different Variants of which with reference to the Fig. 3 to 6 will be explained in more detail below.
- Fig. 3 On the one hand, it can be interpreted as showing, at the bottom left in a first perspective view, the groove edge 10a or 10c and at the top right in a second perspective view the spring edge 10b or 10d of the same panel 10.
- the panels joined together to form a lining covering are identically formed, they can also be interpreted as meaning that the adjoining edges 10b, 10a 'or 10c, 10d "of two adjacent identically formed panels 10, 10' and 10, respectively , 10 "represents (see Fig. 2 ).
- Fig. 3 illustrated embodiment is a tongue and groove profile, which can be connected by interlocking two adjacent panels 10 and 10 'and 10 " Fig. 3 left Nutpaneel 10 lie flat on the ground, while the in Fig. 3 right spring panel 10 'or 10 "is fed laterally in an angled relative to the horizontal position until its spring 12b, 12d engages in the groove 12a, 12c of the panel 10.
- the two panels 10 and 10 'or 10 "provided by pivoting down the spring panel 10', 10" are engaged with each other in the illustrated embodiment, the locking means 14 are on the groove side 12a, 12c of the panel of a recess 14a formed in the upper surface of the lower, the groove 12 a, 12 c bounding lip 16.
- the Locking means 14 formed by a projection 14 b, which is provided on the underside of the spring 12 b, 12 d.
- the engagement of the coupling means 12 prevents a relative movement of the two panels 10 in the vertical direction H (see Fig. 1 ), that is, in a direction orthogonal to the panel plane or Begeh formation E of the panel 10 extending direction, while the interaction of the locking means 14 prevents relative movement of the two panels 10 in a panel plane E and orthogonal to the respective side edge 12a to 12d extending direction.
- the panel plane E is thereby spanned by the longitudinal direction L (direction of the long sides 10a and 10b) and the transverse direction Q (direction of the short sides 10c and 10d) of the panel 10.
- the panels 10 according to the invention additionally have a roughening 18, which at least complicates a relative movement of two interconnected panels 10 in the longitudinal direction of the respective side edge 10a / 10b, 10c / 10d.
- a roughening 18 which at least complicates a relative movement of two interconnected panels 10 in the longitudinal direction of the respective side edge 10a / 10b, 10c / 10d.
- at least one surface portion of the abutting surfaces of the coupling means 12 and the locking means 14 is provided with such a roughening 18.

- the two aforementioned surfaces 14a1 and 14b1 abut against each other in the connected state of two adjacent panels, thus interacting with their respective roughnesses, thereby effectively increasing the longitudinal friction of the respective side edges 10a / 10b, 10c / 10d.
- the surface 14a1 and 14b1 of the panel 10 therefore form "complementary" surfaces.
- the roughenings 18 extend in the longitudinal direction of the two side edges preferably over its entire length while, as in Fig. 3 shown, are provided in the circumferential direction U only on a part of the boundary surface of the groove or the spring.

- the toothing 18, for example, by impressing the teeth 18a in the base 14a1 of the recess 14a and in the head surface 14b1 of the projection 14b are formed.
- a rotating tool 20 or 22 with the surfaces 14a1 and 14b1 is brought into engagement, the peripheral surface 20a and 22a has one of the teeth to be formed 18 corresponding counter-toothing.
- a further tool 24 is shown, which corresponds in construction and function of the tools 20 and 22, but is arranged such that it provides an oblique boundary surface 14a2 of the recess 14a with a toothing. It should also be noted that at the in Fig. 4 shown right spring panel no analog gear tool for the local inclined surface 14b2 is provided. Nevertheless, even the one-sided provision of a toothing can further increase the friction between the two panels.

Therefore, in the Fig. 5 and 6 Analog parts provided with the same reference numerals as in Fig. 3 and 4 , but increased by the number 100. In addition, the Fig. 5 and 6 in the following will be described only insofar as they differ from the above-described embodiment, the description of which is hereby expressly referred to.
- panel 110 differs from the panel 10 according to Fig. 3 and 4 on the one hand, that the coupling means 112 formed on the side edges 110a-110d are not formed so that two adjacent panels can be connected to each other by angling the spring panel into the groove panel, but the panels 110 are connected by a substantially planar telescoping parallel to the panel plane E. become.
- the locking means 114 are in this case formed by a projection 114a at the free end of the groove 112a, 112c limiting lower lip 116 and by a recess 114b in the region of the transition of the spring 112b, 112d in the panel 110.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verkleidungspaneel mit zwei Paaren von einander gegenüberliegenden Seitenrändern, wobei wenigstens ein Seitenränder-Paar mit Kopplungsmitteln versehen ist, welche im Wesentlichen in Form einer Nut und einer Feder ausgebildet sind und sich längs des jeweiligen Seitenrands erstrecken.The invention relates to a trim panel having two pairs of opposite side edges, wherein at least one side edge pair is provided with coupling means, which are formed substantially in the form of a groove and a spring and extending along the respective side edge.
Derartige Verkleidungspaneele sind allgemein bekannt. Beispielsweise sei auf die
Die gattungsgemäßen Paneele werden üblicherweise dadurch hergestellt, dass man im Wesentlichen quaderförmige Rohpaneele, d.h. Rohpaneele, deren den Seitenrändern zugeordnete Seitenflächen im Wesentlichen orthogonal zur Begehfläche verlaufen, spanabhebend bearbeitet, beispielsweise durch Fräsen, um an wenigstens einem der Seitenflächen-Paare die Kopplungsmittel herauszubilden, und zwar in Form einer Nut im Bereich der einen Seitenfläche sowie einer Feder im Bereich der anderen Seitenfläche. Ziel dieser spanabhebenden Bearbeitung ist es dabei stets, möglichst glatte Oberflächen zu erzielen, um beim Verlegen der Verkleidungspaneele zwei über Nut und Feder miteinander verbundene Paneele in Längsrichtung des betreffenden Seitenrands relativ zueinander verschieben zu können.The generic panels are usually made by substantially forming cuboidal panels, i. Raw panels whose side surfaces associated with the side edges substantially orthogonal to the loading surface, machined, for example by milling to form the coupling means on at least one of the side surface pairs, in the form of a groove in the region of a side surface and a spring in the region other side surface. The aim of this machining is always to achieve surfaces as smooth as possible in order to move when installing the cladding panels two interconnected via tongue and groove panels in the longitudinal direction of the respective side edge relative to each other.
Ein Problem, mit welchem gattungsgemäße Verkleidungspaneele in der Praxis stets zu kämpfen haben, sind die jahreszeitlich bedingten Schwankungen der relativen Luftfeuchtigkeit. Während Zeiten hoher relativer Luftfeuchtigkeit dehnen sich die Verkleidungspaneele aufgrund von Quellung aus, während sie aufgrund der niedrigeren relativen Luftfeuchtigkeit während der Heizungsperiode im Winter schrumpfen. Dieses Quellen und Schrumpfen führt selbst dann zur Bildung von Spalten zwischen aneinander angrenzenden Paneelen, wenn die Kopplungsmittel der Verkleidungspaneele, wie dies bei vielen derzeit auf dem Markt erhältlichen Typen von Verkleidungspaneelen üblich ist, mit integrierten Verriegelungsmitteln ausgebildet sind, welche sich in Längsrichtung des jeweiligen Seitenrands des Verkleidungspaneels erstrecken und einer Relativbewegung der beiden Paneele in einer in der Paneelebene und orthogonal zum jeweiligen Seitenrand verlaufenden Richtung versuchen entgegenzuwirken. Als weitere Ursachen für die Bildung von Spalten sind die einwirkungen von statischen und mechanisch-dynamischen Belastungen zu nennen, wie sie auf den Boden beispielsweise von schweren Einrichtungsgegenständen oder durch dessen Begehen ausgeübt werden. Bei rechteckigen Verkleidungspaneelen zeigt sich dieses Spaltenbildungsproblem insbesondere an den Kurzseiten der Paneele. Besonders stark tritt das Spaltenbildungsproblem zudem dann auf, wenn die Paneele, wie heutzutage üblich, auf dem Untergrund frei schwimmend verlegt sind, d.h. mit dem Untergrund nicht durch gesonderte Verbindungsmittel verbunden sind, und nicht miteinander verklebt sind.A problem with which generic trim panels always have to contend in practice, are the seasonal variations in relative humidity. During periods of high relative humidity, the trim panels expand due to swelling while shrinking due to lower relative humidity during the heating period in winter. This swelling and shrinking leads to the formation of gaps between adjacent panels, even if the coupling means of the cladding panels, as is common in many types of trim panels currently available on the market, are formed with integral locking means which extend longitudinally of the respective side edge of the trim panel and attempt relative movement of the two panels in a direction in the panel plane and orthogonal to the respective side edge counteract. Other causes for the formation of cracks include the effects of static and mechanical-dynamic loads, such as those that are exerted on the ground, for example, by heavy furnishings or by their conquest. For rectangular cladding panels, this cleavage problem is particularly evident on the short sides of the panels. The splitting problem also occurs particularly strongly when the panels, as usual today, are laid freely floating on the ground, ie are not connected to the ground by separate connecting means and are not glued together.
Zur Verhinderung von Spaltenbildung wurde in der
Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Verkleidungspaneel der eingangs genannten Art bereitzustellen, bei welchem der Bildung von Spalten zwischen zwei miteinander verbundenen Paneelen unter Verzicht auf das Vorsehen einer derartigen Vorspannkraft entgegengewirkt werden kann.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a trim panel of the type mentioned, in which the formation of gaps between two interconnected panels waiving the provision of such biasing force can be counteracted.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Verkleidungspaneel der eingangs genannten Art gelöst, bei welchem wenigstens ein Abschnitt der Begrenzungsfläche der Nut oder/und wenigstens ein Abschnitt der Begrenzungsfläche der Feder mit einer Aufrauhung versehen ist.This object is achieved by a trim panel of solved at the beginning, at least a portion of the boundary surface of the groove and / or at least a portion of the boundary surface of the spring is provided with a roughening.
Unter der "Begrenzungsfläche" wird dabei im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Erfindung diejenige Fläche verstanden, die von der Seitenfläche des jeweiligen Seitenrands ausgeht, die Nut mit einer in die Nut hinein weisenden Flächennormalen bzw. die Feder mit einer von der Feder weg weisenden Flächennormalen umläuft und auf der anderen Seite der Nut bzw. der Feder wieder an der Seitenfläche des Seitenrands endet.In the context of the present invention, the "boundary surface" is understood to be that surface which starts from the side surface of the respective side edge, the groove rotates with a surface normal pointing into the groove, or the spring revolves with a surface normal pointing away from the spring, and on the other side of the groove or the spring ends again on the side surface of the side edge.
Durch das Vorsehen der erfindungsgemäßen Aufrauhung wird die Reibung zwischen der Nut des einen Paneels und der Feder des anderen Paneels erhöht, sodass eine Relativverlagerung der beiden miteinander verbundenen Paneele in Längsrichtung der Nut bzw. der Feder erschwert ist. Hierdurch wird auch der Spaltbildung an der orthogonal zu dieser Längsrichtung verlaufenden Paneelseite entgegengewirkt. D.h. dann, wenn das Verkleidungspaneel ein rechteckiges Verkleidungspaneel mit einer Kurzseite und einer Langseite ist, kann der Spaltenbildung an der Kurzseite des Paneels dadurch entgegengewirkt werden, dass man zumindest an der Langseite wenigstens einen Abschnitt der Begrenzungsfläche von Nut oder/und Feder mit einer Aufrauhung versieht. Selbstverständlich hat auch das Vorsehen einer Aufrauhung im Bereich der Nut oder/und der Feder der Kurzseite des Paneels eine Minderung der Neigung zur Spaltenbildung an der Langseite des Paneels zur Folge.By providing the roughening according to the invention, the friction between the groove of one panel and the spring of the other panel is increased, so that a relative displacement of the two interconnected panels in the longitudinal direction of the groove or the spring is difficult. As a result, the gap formation is counteracted at the panel side extending orthogonally to this longitudinal direction. That when the trim panel is a rectangular trim panel with a short side and a long side, the formation of gaps on the short side of the panel can be counteracted by roughening at least on the long side at least a portion of the groove or tongue and groove boundary surface. Of course, the provision of a roughening in the region of the groove or / and the spring of the short side of the panel has a reduction in the tendency to form crevices on the long side of the panel.
Im Hinblick auf die Erzielung einer möglichst hohen Reibung ist es bevorzugt, wenn sich der mit der Aufrauhung versehene wenigstens eine Abschnitt der Begrenzungsfläche sowohl über die im Wesentlichen gesamte Länge des jeweiligen Seitenrands als auch in Umfangsrichtung der Begrenzungsfläche über den im Wesentlichen gesamten Umfang der Begrenzungsfläche erstreckt. Nicht zuletzt aus fertigungstechnischen Gründen kann es jedoch auch wünschenswert sein, dass der mit der Aufrauhung versehene wenigstens eine Abschnitt der Begrenzungsfläche sich lediglich über einen Teil der Länge des jeweiligen Seitenrands oder/und in Umfangsrichtung lediglich über einen Teil der Begrenzungsfläche erstreckt.With regard to achieving the highest possible friction, it is preferred if the at least one section of the boundary surface provided with the roughening extends over substantially the entire length of the respective side edge and also in the circumferential direction of the boundary surface over the substantially entire circumference of the boundary surface , Not least for manufacturing reasons, however, it may also be desirable that the provided with the roughening at least a portion of the boundary surface extends only over part of the length of the respective side edge and / or in the circumferential direction only over part of the boundary surface.
Die Reibung zwischen der Begrenzungsfläche der Nut und der korrespondierenden Begrenzungsfläche der Feder kann weiter dadurch erhöht werden, dass dann, wenn sowohl wenigstens ein Abschnitt der Begrenzungsfläche der Nut als auch wenigstens ein Abschnitt der Begrenzungsfläche der Feder mit einer Aufrauhung versehen sind, diese Aufrauhungen wenigstens zum Teil an zueinander komplementären Abschnitten der Begrenzungsflächen von Nut und Feder vorgesehen sind. Als "komplementär" im Sinne dieses Anspruchs sind zwei Abschnitte der Begrenzungsflächen von Nut bzw. Feder ein und desselben Paneels dann anzusehen, wenn bei Verbindung zweier identischer Paneele der mit einer Aufrauhung versehene Abschnitt der Nut des einen Paneels und der mit einer Aufrauhung versehene Abschnitt der Feder des anderen Paneels im verbundenen Zustand dieser beiden Paneele aneinander anliegen.The friction between the boundary surface of the groove and the corresponding boundary surface of the spring can be further increased by providing at least a portion of the boundary surface of the groove and at least a portion of the boundary surface of the spring with a roughening Part are provided on mutually complementary portions of the boundary surfaces of tongue and groove. As a "complementary" in the sense of this claim, two sections of the boundary surfaces of tongue or groove one and the same panel are to be considered if, when connecting two identical panels provided with a roughening portion of the groove of a panel and provided with a roughening section of Spring of the other panel in the connected state of these two panels abut each other.
Beispielsweise kann wenigstens ein mit einer Aufrauhung versehener Abschnitt von einer Verzahnung gebildet sein. Zur Erzielung einer möglichst hohen Reibung zwischen zwei miteinander verbundenen Paneelen wird dabei vorgeschlagen, dass die Zahnfolgerichtung der Verzahnung im Wesentlichen in Längsrichtung des jeweiligen Seitenrands verläuft, während die Zahnerstreckungsrichtung im Wesentlichen in Umfangsrichtung der Nut bzw. der Feder verläuft. Unter der "Zahnfolgerichtung" wird dabei diejenige Richtung verstanden, in welcher die Zähne der Verzahnung aufeinander folgen; bei einem herkömmlichen Zahnrad also die Umfangsrichtung des Zahnrads. Als "Zahnerstreckungsrichtung" wird hingegen diejenige Richtung verstanden, in der sich der einzelne Zahn erstreckt; bei einem herkömmlichen Zahnrad mit Geradverzahnung also die Achsrichtung.For example, at least one section provided with a roughening can be formed by a toothing. In order to achieve the highest possible friction between two interconnected panels, it is proposed that the tooth follower direction of the toothing extends substantially in the longitudinal direction of the respective side edge, while the tooth extension direction extends substantially in the circumferential direction of the groove or spring. The "tooth following direction" is understood to be that direction in which the teeth of the toothing follow one another; in a conventional gear so the circumferential direction of the gear. By contrast, the term "tooth extension direction" is understood to mean that direction in which the individual tooth extends; in a conventional spur gear so the axial direction.
Die Verzahnung kann beispielsweise durch eine im Wesentlichen spanlose Bearbeitung gebildet sein, etwa durch Eindrücken, Einkerben oder dergleichen. Zusätzlich oder alternativ ist es jedoch auch möglich, dass die Verzahnung durch eine spanende Bearbeitung zu bilden, beispielsweise durch Stechen, Fräsen oder dergleichen. In beiden Alternativen zur Herstellung der Verzahnung ist es jedoch vorteilhaft, ein Werkzeug einzusetzen, dessen Rotationsgeschwindigkeit derart auf die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit des Paneels abgestimmt ist, dass seine Umfangsgeschwindigkeit im Wesentlichen mit der Vorschubgeschwindigkeit des Paneels übereinstimmt.The toothing can be formed for example by a substantially non-cutting machining, such as by impressions, notching or the like. Additionally or alternatively, however, it is also possible for the teeth to be formed by machining, for example by piercing, milling or the like. In both alternatives for producing the toothing, however, it is advantageous to use a tool whose rotational speed is matched to the feed rate of the panel, that its peripheral speed substantially coincides with the feed rate of the panel.
In einer zweiten Ausführungsvariante, die zusätzlich oder alternativ zur Ausbildung des aufgerauhten Abschnitts als Verzahnung eingesetzt werden kann, kann wenigstens ein mit einer Aufrauhung versehener Abschnitt von einer Mehrzahl von Holzfasern gebildet sein, welche aus der Oberfläche des jeweiligen Abschnitts der Begrenzungsfläche hervorstehen. Um dieses Aufstellen der Fasern zu erreichen, kann die Oberfläche mit einem Mittel behandelt sein, beispielsweise mit einem wasserverdünnbaren Lack (wie einer weichmacherfreien wässrigen Copolymerisatdispersion), welches die Fasern zumindest teilweise aus ihrem Materialverbund, beispielsweise Vollholz, MDF oder einem anderen Holzwerkstoff, herauslöst, aufstellt und fixiert.In a second variant, which can be used in addition to or alternatively to the formation of the roughened portion as a toothing, at least one provided with a roughening portion of a plurality of wood fibers may be formed, which protrude from the surface of the respective portion of the boundary surface. In order to achieve this setting up of the fibers, the surface may be treated with an agent, for example with a water-dilutable paint (such as a plasticizer-free aqueous copolymer dispersion) which at least partially removes the fibers from their composite material, for example solid wood, MDF or another wood-based material, sets up and fixes.
Gemäß einer dritten Ausführungsvariante, die wiederum zusätzlich oder alternativ zu den beiden vorstehend erläuterten Ausführungsvarianten zum Einsatz kommen kann, kann wenigstens ein mit einer Aufrauhung versehener Abschnitt von einer Mehrzahl von Partikeln gebildet sein, welche auf die Oberfläche des jeweiligen Abschnitts der Begrenzungsfläche aufgebracht sind. Als diese Partikel kommen beispielsweise Partikel aus mikronisiertem Polypropylenwachs in Betracht, welche eine Größe von zwischen etwa 30 µm und 75 µm aufweisen. Ferner können diese Partikel mittels eines Haftvermittlers, beispielsweise einem wasserverdünnbaren Lack (etwa einer weichmacherfreien wässrigen Copolymerisatdispersion) mit der Oberfläche des jeweiligen Abschnitts der Begrenzungsfläche verbunden sein.According to a third embodiment, which in turn may be used in addition to or as an alternative to the two embodiments described above, at least one section provided with a roughening can be formed by a plurality of particles which are applied to the surface of the respective section of the boundary surface. As these particles are, for example, particles of micronized polypropylene wax into consideration, which have a size of between about 30 microns and 75 microns. Furthermore, these particles can be bonded to the surface by means of an adhesion promoter, for example a water-dilutable paint (for example a plasticizer-free aqueous copolymer dispersion) be connected to the respective portion of the boundary surface.
Wie vorstehend bereits angedeutet, kann zumindest ein Kern des Paneels aus einem Holzwerkstoff, beispielsweise Vollholz, einer Spanplatte, einer MDF-Platte oder dergleichen, gebildet sein. Grundsätzlich ist es jedoch auch möglich, die erfindungsgemäßen Prinzipien bei anderen Werkstoffen einzusetzen, beispielsweise Kompaktlaminat, Kunststoff oder dergleichen.As already indicated above, at least one core of the panel can be formed from a wood material, for example solid wood, a chipboard, an MDF board or the like. In principle, however, it is also possible to use the principles according to the invention for other materials, for example compact laminate, plastic or the like.
Wie vorstehend ebenfalls bereits erwähnt, können die Kopplungsmittel mit integrierten Verriegelungsmitteln ausgebildet sein, welche sich in Längsrichtung des jeweiligen Seitenrands erstrecken. Diese Verriegelungsmittel können dabei beispielsweise einstückig aus dem Kernmaterial gebildet sein. Grundsätzlich ist es jedoch auch denkbar, die Verriegelungsmittel oder/und die Kopplungsmittel in bzw. an einer mit dem Kern des Paneels verbundenen Kopplungseinheit auszubilden. Diese Kopplungseinheit kann beispielsweise dadurch mit dem Kern des Paneels verbunden sein, dass man ein geeignetes Material, beispielsweise Kunststoff, ein Holzextrudat oder dergleichen, in eine vorbereitete Vertiefung in der Seitenfläche des Paneels einspritzt und anschließend zur Bildung der Kopplungsmittel oder/und der Verriegelungsmittel materialabtragend bearbeitet. Alternativ ist es jedoch auch möglich, ein vorgefertigtes Teil mit daran vorgefertigten Kopplungsmitteln oder/und Verriegelungsmitteln in die vorbereitete Vertiefung einzulegen.As already mentioned above, the coupling means may be formed with integrated locking means which extend in the longitudinal direction of the respective side edge. This locking means can be formed, for example, in one piece from the core material. In principle, however, it is also conceivable to form the locking means and / or the coupling means in or on a coupling unit connected to the core of the panel. This coupling unit can for example be connected to the core of the panel by injecting a suitable material, for example plastic, a wood extrudate or the like, into a prepared recess in the side surface of the panel and subsequently machining it to form the coupling means and / or the locking means , Alternatively, however, it is also possible to insert a prefabricated part with prefabricated coupling means and / or locking means in the prepared recess.
In besonders vorteilhafter Weise kann die Erfindung dann eingesetzt werden, wenn das Verkleidungspaneel ein Fußbodenpaneel ist, und zwar insbesondere dann, wenn das Fußbodenpaneel zur schwimmenden Verlegung oder/und zu Verlegung ohne die Verwendung von Klebstoff zur Verbindung benachbarter Paneele bestimmt ist.In a particularly advantageous manner, the invention can be used when the trim panel is a floor panel, especially if the floor panel is intended for floating installation and / or laying without the use of adhesive to connect adjacent panels.
