CONNECTION FOR ELASTIC OR RIGID PANEL-TYPE COMPONENTS, PROFILED SLIDE, AND FLOOR COVERING

摘要

The invention relates to a connection for panel-type components using a lock which acts along adjacent lateral edges of the components and which can be brought into engagement by lowering a component relative to a component that has already been installed. A profiled slide is guided in a movable manner on one component, the profiled slide being bringable into locking engagement with a locking recess on the other component for the purpose of a vertical lock. The profiled slide has a locking projection with a first guiding surface which is positioned diagonally with respect to the installation plane and which comes into contact with a locking surface of the locking recess during the lowering process such that a force component that causes a movement from a release position into a locked position is applied to the profiled slide.

主权项

1. A connection for panel-type components comprising a lock which acts along adjacent lateral edges of the components and which can be brought into engagement by lowering a component relative to a component that has already been installed, wherein a profiled slide is guided in a movable manner on one component, said profiled slide being adapted to be brought into locking engagement with a locking recess on the other component for providing a vertical lock, in that the profiled slide has a locking projection with a first guiding surface which is positioned diagonally with respect to the installation plane and which comes into contact with a locking surface of the locking recess during the lowering process, such that a force component that causes a movement from a release position into a locked position is applied to the profiled slide.
