The invention relates to a covering comprising elements (1, 2) that can be connected to each other mechanically, at least one of the elements (1, 2) being a panel, wherein the elements (1, 2) have on their opposite sides a corresponding profiled section and can be locked together via said profiled section. The locking is caused by at least one spring element (11) which is connected to one of the elements (2) in an articulated manner and which can be pivoted during the joining movement behind a locking edge (22) of the adjacent element (1), said locking edge extending essentially in the horizontal direction. According to the invention, the spring element (11) is connected on the one hand in some areas to a core (12) of the element (2) by means of an elastic material (18) and on the other hand is a one-piece component of the element (2) prior to the joining movement, wherein the one-piece connection between the spring element (11) and the element (2) is configured as a predetermined breaking point (19) which is provided to fail, in particular break, when the spring element (11) is pivoted. |
