Abstract:
Floorboards for mechanical joining of floors in a herringbone pattern and in parallel rows with horizontal connectors which on the short sides have cooperating locking surfaces which are designed differently from the cooperating locking surfaces on the long sides.
Abstract:
A sound and/or moisture barrier underlayment suited for use on a roof or floor surface to provide a substantially flat and level surface, comprises at least first and second strips of insulation membranes (10) laid down one next to the other in a coplanar relationship. The first and second strips (24, 26) have a thickness W1. An overlap joint (28) is provided between the first and second strips (24, 26). The overlap joint (28) has a thickness W2 substantially equal to or less than W1 to provide a free-bump transition between the first and second strips (24, 26) while preventing straight-through infiltration.
Abstract:
Hard panels formed from a wood-based material and having a decorative layer for floor coverings are provided, at least on two opposite edges, with coupling devices made in one piece with the panels wherein similar panels may be coupled together to form a floor covering, wherein these coupling devices provide for an interlocking in a direction perpendicular to the plane of coupled panels, as well as in a direction perpendicular to the edges concerned and parallel to the plane of coupled panels. These coupling devices are constituted of a tongue and a groove. The top side of the tongue has a protrusion that cooperates with a meshing recess located in the lower side of the upper lip of the groove of the coupling devices, and a portion extending generally parallel with the plane of the panel to form a contact surface cooperating with the lower side of the upper lip of the groove.
Abstract:
Floor covering, including hard floor panels which, at least at the edges of two opposite sides, are provided with coupling parts, cooperating which each other, substantially in the form of a tongue and a groove, wherein the coupling parts are provided with integrated mechanical locking elements which prevent the drifting apart of two coupled floor panels in a direction (R) perpendicular to the related edges and parallel to the underside of the coupled floor panels, and provide a snap-action coupling.

Abstract:
Floor panel which is bounded in a horizontal plane by a top side, which is provided with a decorative layer or the like, and an underside, which is provided for bearing on an underlying surface, the floor panel being provided with means for the releasable connection of at least two panels, it being the case that the connecting means are formed on at least one first side edge such that locking takes place in the transverse direction (Q) and vertical direction (V), that form-fitting elements for locking in the vertical direction (V) with a further panel are formed on a second side edge, which runs at an angle to the first side edge, that the form-fitting elements are spaced apart from one another in the transverse direction (Q) and in the vertical direction (V) on two spaced-apart, essentially vertically oriented walls, in which case a tongue is formed on the first side edge, the tongue extending in the longitudinal direction of the side edge, and a recess, corresponding to the tongue, is formed on an opposite side edge, the underside of the tongue, starting from the tip of the tongue, having a continuously curved contour.
Abstract:
The floor panel (1) which, at least at two opposite sides, is provided with coupling parts in the form of a tongue (6) at one side and a groove (5) at the opposite side, wherein the coupling parts are provided with mechanical locking elements in the form of a protrusion (7), which is formed at the tongue, and a lip (8) bordering the groove, is distinguishable by that the bearing surface (9) of the lip (8) at the longer arm of the groove (5) is concave on the arc with the first radius (r1) whose point of engagement is situated at the upper edge of the panel (1) whereas the protrusion (7) of the tongue (6) has in its cross-section the form of a circular sector with the third radius (r3) which is shorter than the first radius, wherein the lower part of the lip (8) and the lower part of the panel (1) from the side of the circular protrusion (7) have the second bearing surfaces (9′) which are inclined in relation to the vertical plane in one direction, at the first acute angle (α).
Abstract:
A floor panel (1) with a coating structure (3) is described, said floor panel (1) exhibiting improved fire protection behaviour. For this purpose, a fire-resistant coating (7) is provided in the coating structure (3).
