Mechanical locking of floor panels

摘要

Floor panels (1, 1′) are shown, which are provided with a mechanical locking system on long (5a, 5b) and short edges (4a, 4b) allowing installation with angling of long edges and where the short edge locking system has a displaceable tongue that is displaceable essentially in one direction from an inner unlocked position to an final locked position.

主权项

1. A set of floor panels provided with a locking system, the locking system comprising a separate displaceable tongue integrated with an edge of a floor panel for connecting the edge vertically to an adjacent edge of a similar panel,
wherein at least a part of the displaceable tongue is displaceable in a first horizontal direction, wherein the displaceable tongue is configured so that a pressure in a second horizontal direction substantially perpendicular to the first horizontal direction at an edge section of the displaceable tongue and essentially along the edge causes displacement of the displaceable tongue in the first horizontal direction, and wherein the floor panel and the similar floor panel are configured to be locked vertically by the displacement of the displaceable tongue in the first horizontal direction.
