BODENBELAG, BESTEHEND AUS HARTEN BODENPLATTEN UND VERFAHREN ZUR HERSTELLUNG SOLCHER BODENPLATTEN

摘要

A method for linking rigid flooring panels has interlocking edge profiles. One edge has a shaped groove in the support layer, into which is clipped a profiled lip of the adjoining panel. The lip and groove are linked by a tilt and clip action resulting in a tension grip between the lip and groove profiles. This ensures that the butting edges of the panels are pulled together at all times, even with the expansion and shrinking of the panels with weathering. The panels present a gap free fitting under all conditions, and can be lifted for repair.
