The bottom surface (7) of the tongue on the first edge is convex and matches a concave portion (23) in the groove. The top surface of the tongue is horizontal at the root, then slopes gently downwards. The bottom of the groove is of rectangular cross-section.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Verlegung und Verriegelung von viereckigen tafelförmigen Paneelen, insbesondere Fußbodenpaneelen, die an gegenüberliegenden langen Schmalseiten sowie an gegenüberliegenden kurzen Schmalseiten sich über die Länge der Schmalseiten erstreckende Halteprofile aufweisen, von denen die gegenüberliegenden Halteprofile im wesentlichen komplementär zueinander ausgebildet sind, wobei zunächst Paneele einer ersten Reihe an den kurzen Schmalseiten miteinander verbunden werden, entweder indem die komplementären Halteprofile eines verlegten und eines neuen Paneels in Längsrichtung der kurzen Schmalseiten ineinandergeschoben werden oder indem das Halteprofil eines neuen Paneels zunächst durch Schrägstellung relativ zu dem verlegten Paneel mit dem komplementären Halteprofil des verlegten Paneels ineinandergefügt und nachfolgend durch Schwenken in die Ebene des verlegten Paneels mit diesem sowohl in der Richtung senkrecht zu den ineinandergefügten Schmalseiten als auch in der Richtung senkrecht zur Ebene der verlegten Paneele verriegelt wird, als nächstes ein neues Paneel in zweiter Reihe verlegt wird, indem das Halteprofil seiner langen Schmalseite zunächst durch Schrägstellung relativ zu der langen Schmalseite eines Paneels der ersten Reihe mit dessen Halteprofil ineinandergefügt und nachfolgend in die Ebene der verlegten Paneele geschwenkt wird, und wobei ein neues Paneel, dessen kurze Schmalseite mit der kurzen Schmalseite des in zweiter Reihe verlegten Paneels und dessen lange Schmalseite mit der langen Schmalseite eines in erster Reihe verlegten Paneels verriegelt werden muß, zunächst an seiner kurzen Schmalseite mit dem Paneel der zweiten Reihe verriegelt wird.The invention relates to a method for laying and locking of square tabular panels, in particular Floor panels on opposite long narrow sides as well as on opposite short narrow sides over the Have length of the narrow sides extending retaining profiles, from which the opposite holding profiles essentially complementary are formed to each other, with panels first a first row connected to each other on the short narrow sides either by using the complementary holding profiles one installed and one new panel in the longitudinal direction of the short narrow sides are pushed together or by the Holding profile of a new panel first by tilting it relative to the installed panel with the complementary holding profile of the installed panel and subsequently by pivoting into the plane of the installed panel with it both in the direction perpendicular to the interlocked Narrow sides as well as in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the installed panels is locked, next a new panel is laid in the second row by the holding profile of its long narrow side first by inclination relative to the long narrow side of a front row panel with its Holding profile merged and then into the plane the installed panels is pivoted and a new panel, its short side with the short side of the panels laid in the second row and its long narrow side with the long narrow side of a panel laid in the first row must be locked, first on its short narrow side locked with the second row panel.

Außerdem betrifft die Erfindung ein Verfahren zur Verlegung eines neuen viereckigen tafelförmigen Paneels in einer zweiten Reihe von Paneelen.The invention also relates to a method for laying a new square panels in a second Row of panels.

Aus dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster G 79 28 703 U1 ist ein gattungsgemäßes Verfahren zur Verlegung und Verriegelung von Fußbodenpaneelen beziehungsweise Platten mit formschlüssigen Halteprofilen bekannt. Dieses Halteprofile lassen sich durch eine drehende Fügebewegung miteinander verbinden. Nachteiligerweise muß aber zur Verlegung einer zweiten Plattenreihe, die an eine verlegte erste Plattenreihe anzubringen ist, zunächst komplett vormontiert werden. Dem Gebrauchsmuster G 79 28 703 U1 ist die technische Lehre zu entnehmen, dass zunächst eine erste Reihe von Platten horizontal bereitgelegt wird und dann in zweiter Reihe mit einer zweiten Platte begonnen wird, die in schräger Position in eine Nutenausbildung der ersten Plattenreihe einzuschieben ist. Die zweite Platte muß in dieser Schräglage gehalten werden, damit eine dritte Platte an der zweiten Platte angeschlossen werden kann. Das gleiche gilt für die folgenden Platten, die in zweiter Reihe aneinander angeschlossen werden müssen. Erst, wenn alle Platten der zweiten Plattenreihe in Schrägstellung vormontiert worden sind, kann die komplette zweite Plattenreihe in die horizontale Lage geschwenkt werden, wobei sie sich mit der ersten Plattenreihe verriegelt. Ungünstig ist bei dem für diese Plattenkonstruktion erforderlichen Verlegeverfahren, dass mehrere Personen benötigt werden, um alle Platten einer zweiten Plattenreihe zur Vormontage in einer schrägen Position zu halten und die zweite Plattenreihe dann gemeinsam in die Verlegeebene abzusenken.From the German utility model G 79 28 703 U1 is a generic Procedure for laying and locking floor panels or panels with positive holding profiles known. This holding profile can be through a Connect the rotating joining movement. Unfortunately, but must be used to lay a second row of panels connected to a first installed row of panels is to be installed, initially complete be pre-assembled. The utility model G 79 28 703 U1 is the technical teaching to infer that first a row of plates is laid out horizontally and then in second Row is started with a second slab, which is at an angle Position in a groove formation of the first row of plates is. The second plate must be held in this inclined position so that a third plate is connected to the second plate can be. The same applies to the following Plates that are connected to each other in the second row have to. Only when all plates of the second row of plates in Can be pre-assembled, the complete second row of panels can be swiveled into the horizontal position, locking with the first row of panels. Unfavorable is required for this plate construction Laying process that multiple people are needed to all Panels of a second row of panels for pre-assembly in one hold oblique position and then the second row of panels lower together into the installation level.

Ein anderes Verfahren zur Verlegung und Verriegelung von Paneelen ist aus der EP 0 855 482 A2 bekannt. Hierbei werden Paneele, die in zweiter Reihe verlegt werden sollen, ebenfalls in schräger Position an die Paneele einer ersten Reihe angefügt. Benachbarte Paneele der zweiten Reihe werden zunächst in einem kleinen seitlichen Abstand voneinander mit den Paneelen der ersten Reihe verriegelt. In diesem Zustand sind die Paneele der zweiten Reihe entlang der ersten Reihe verschiebbar. Durch gegeneinanderschieben zweier Paneele der zweiten Reihe werden Halteprofile, die an den kurzen Schmalseiten der Paneele vorgesehen sind, ineinander gedrückt. Nachteiligerweise werden die Halteprofile dabei sehr stark aufgeweitet und gedehnt. Die Halteprofile erfahren bereits bei der Montage eine Vorschädigung, die die Haltbarkeit der Halteprofile beeinträchtigt. Für eine Mehrfachverlegung eignen sich die nach der Lehre der EP 0 855 482 A2 konstruierten und verlegten Halteprofile nicht. Aus einem HDF- oder MDF-Material geformte Halteprofile beispielsweise werden durch den hohen Verformungsgrad, dem die Halteprofile bei dem Verlegeverfahren gemäß der EP 0 855 482 A2 unterliegen, weich. Innere Risse und Verschiebungen in der Faserstruktur des HDF- oder MDF-Materials sind hierfür verantwortlich.Another method of laying and locking panels is known from EP 0 855 482 A2. Here panels, which are to be installed in the second row, also in oblique position attached to the panels of a first row. Adjacent panels of the second row are initially in one small lateral distance from each other with the panels of the locked first row. In this state, the panels are the second row slidable along the first row. By pushing against each other two panels of the second row Retaining profiles provided on the short narrow sides of the panels are pressed into each other. The disadvantage is that Holding profiles expanded and stretched very much. The holding profiles experience pre-damage during assembly, which affects the durability of the support profiles. For one Multiple laying is suitable according to the teaching of EP 0 855 482 A2 not constructed and laid holding profiles. From a HDF or MDF material shaped holding profiles, for example are due to the high degree of deformation that the holding profiles subject to the laying process according to EP 0 855 482 A2, soft. Internal cracks and shifts in the fiber structure of the HDF or MDF materials are responsible for this.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, das bekannte Verfahren zur Verlegung und Verriegelung zu vereinfachen und die Haltbarkeit des Befestigungsystems zu verbessern.The invention is therefore based on the object, the known Simplify laying and locking procedures and to improve the durability of the fastening system.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass beim dem Verfahren der eingangs genannten gattung das neue Paneel danach entlang der langen Schmalseite eines in erster Reihe verlegten Paneels aus der Ebene der verlegten Paneele nach oben geschwenkt wird, wobei das zuvor an der kurzen Schmalseite mit dem neuen Paneel verriegelte Paneel der zweiten Reihe an diesem Ende gemeinsam mit dem neuen Paneel bis in eine Schrägstellung mit nach oben geschwenkt wird, wobei die Schrägstellung zu der verriegelten kurzen Schmalseite des Paneels hin abnimmt, und wobei sich das lange Halteprofil des neuen Paneels in dieser Schrägstellung mit dem komplementären Halteprofil des in erster Reihe verlegten Paneels ineinanderfügen läßt und nach dem Ineinanderfügen das schrägstehende neue Paneel sowie das an einer kurzen Schmalseite in zweiter Reihe mit dem neuen Paneel verriegelte Paneel in die Ebene der verlegten Paneele geschwenkt werden.According to the invention the object is achieved in that the new method in the method of the type mentioned Panel along the long narrow side of one in the first Row of installed panels from the level of the installed panels is pivoted upwards, which was previously on the short Narrow side with the new panel locked panel of the second Row at this end together with the new panel into one Inclination is pivoted upwards, the inclination towards the locked short narrow side of the panel decreases, and the long holding profile of the new panel in this inclined position with the complementary holding profile of the in the first row of laid panels and after the new sloping panel as well as the a short narrow side in the second row with the new panel locked panel pivoted into the level of the installed panels become.

Ebenfalls zur Lösung dient ein Verfahren zur Verlegung eines neuen viereckigen, tafelförmigen Paneels in einer zweiten Reihe von Paneelen, bei dem das in zweiter Reihe zu verlegende neue Paneel Halteprofile aufweist, welche das neue Paneel in den Stand versetzen, sowohl mit Paneelen einer ersten Reihe als auch mit einem bereits verlegten Paneel der zweiten Reihe verriegelt zu werden, insbesondere für Fußbodenpaneele, wobei das neue in zweiter Reihe zu verlegende Paneel sowohl mit einer langen Seite an einer ersten Reihe von Paneelen als auch mit einer kurzen Seite an einem Paneel verriegelt wird, das bereits in zweiter Reihe verlegt ist, wobei die Paneele an gegenüberliegenden langen Schmalseiten sowie an gegenüberliegenden kurzen Schmalseiten sich über die Länge der Schmalseiten erstreckende Halteprofile aufweisen, von denen die gegenüberliegenden Halteprofile im wesentlichen komplementär zueinander ausgebildet sind, und wobei das neue in zweiter Reihe zu verlegende Paneel zuerst an einer seiner kurzen Seiten mit dem bereits in zweiter Reihe verlegten Paneel verriegelt wird, indem dessen freies Ende um die verriegelte lange Schmalseite aus der Verlegeebene um einen Schwenkwinkel α nach oben geschwenkt und das bereits in zweiter Reihe verlegte Paneel derart tordiert wird, dass das Maß des Schwenkwinkels α von dem freien Ende zu dem verriegelten Ende hin abnimmt, in dieser Position das neue in zweiter Reihe zu verlegende Paneel mit einem Teil seiner kurzen Seite und in einer Schrägstellung relativ zu dem bereits in zweiter Reihe verlegten Paneel an dessen freiem Ende angesetzt wird, nun das neue in zweiter Reihe zu verlegende Paneel in eine Schwenkposition geschwenkt wird, bis es ebenfalls unter dem Schwenkwinkel α zur Verlegeebene positioniert ist, wobei das neue in zweiter Reihe zu verlegende Paneel aus der Schwenkposition verschoben und das Halteprofil des neuen in zweiter Reihe zu verlegenden Paneels in die Halteprofile der Paneele der ersten Reihe eingefügt wird, wobei die kurze Schmalseite des neuen in zweiter Reihe zu verlegenden Paneels gleichzeitig ganz auf die kurze Schmalseite des bereits in zweiter Reihe verlegten Paneels aufgeschoben wird und schließlich das bereits in zweiter Reihe verlegte Paneel und das neue in zweiter Reihe zu verlegende Paneel gemeinsam in die Verlegeebene geschwenkt und mit den Paneelen der ersten Reihe verriegelt werden.Another solution is a method of laying a new square, panel-shaped panel in a second row of panels, in which the second Row to be installed new panel holding profiles, which position the new panel, both with panels a first row as well as with an already installed panel second row to be locked, especially for floor panels, the new panel to be installed in the second row both with a long side on a first row of Panels as well as locked with a short side on a panel that is already laid in the second row, whereby the panels on opposite long narrow sides as well opposite short narrow sides over the length of the Have narrow sides extending retaining profiles, of which the opposite holding profiles essentially complementary are trained to each other, and the new one in the second row panel to be installed first on one of its short sides locked with the panel already installed in the second row by placing the free end around the locked long narrow side from the installation level by a swivel angle α upwards pivoted and twisted the panel already laid in the second row is that the measure of the pivot angle α from the free End towards the locked end decreases in this position the new panel to be laid in the second row with part of it short side and at an angle relative to that already panel laid in the second row at its free end the new panel to be installed in the second row a pivot position is pivoted until it is also under the swivel angle α is positioned to the installation plane, wherein the new panel to be installed in the second row from the swivel position moved and the holding profile of the new one in the second row panels to be laid in the retaining profiles of the panels of the first Row is inserted, the short narrow side of the new in second row of panels to be laid at the same time on the short Slid on the narrow side of the panel, which has already been laid in the second row and finally in the second row installed panel and the new panel to be installed in the second row swiveled together into the installation level and with the panels the first row can be locked.

Nach dem neuen Verfahren können in zweiter Reihe zu verlegende Paneele von einer einzigen Person angebracht werden. Ein neues Paneel läßt sich sowohl mit Paneelen einer ersten Reihe als auch mit einem bereits verlegten Paneel der zweiten Reihe verriegeln. Hierfür ist es nicht notwendig, die kurzen Schmalseiten zweier in einer Ebene liegender Paneele unter Aufweitung und Verformung der Halteprofile zu verriegeln.According to the new procedure can be installed in the second row Panels can be installed by a single person. A new Panel can be used with panels of a first row as well also lock with an already installed second row panel. For this it is not necessary to use the short narrow sides two panels lying in one plane with expansion and deformation of the holding profiles to lock.

Das letzte in zweiter Reihe verlegte Paneel kann an seiner freien kurzen Schmalseite gegriffen werden und läßt sich um die verriegelte lange Schmalseite als Schwenkachse in eine Schräglage nach oben schwenken. Dabei wird das Paneel einwenig um seine Längsachse tordiert. Dies führt dazu, dass sich die freie kurze Schmalseite des Paneels in einer Schräglage befindet und die Schräglage zu der verriegelten kurze Schmalseite des Paneels hin abnimmt. Je nach der Steifigkeit der Paneele kann sich eine mehr oder weniger starke Torsion und damit eine mehr oder weniger abnehmende Schrägstellung ergeben. Die Schrägstellung kann sich bei steiferen Paneelen durch mehrere der vorherigen Paneele der zweiten Reihe fortsetzen.The last panel laid in the second row can be on his free short narrow side can be gripped and can be around the locked long narrow side as swivel axis in an inclined position swivel upwards. The panel is a little over twisted its longitudinal axis. This leads to the free short narrow side of the panel is in an inclined position and the slant to the locked short narrow side of the panel decreases. Depending on the rigidity of the panels a more or less strong torsion and thus a more or less decreasing skew. The slant In the case of stiffer panels, several of the previous ones can cause Continue panels from the second row.

Bei der Verlegung ist es natürlich nicht erforderlich, dass die erste Reihe komplett verlegt sein muß, bevor mit der Verlegung der zweiten Reihe begonnen wird. Es ist bei der Verlegung lediglich darauf zu achten, dass die Anzahl der Elemente der ersten Reihe größer ist als in der zweiten Reihe und so weiter.When laying, it is of course not necessary that the first row must be completely laid before laying the second row is started. It is only when laying make sure that the number of elements of the first Row is larger than in the second row and so on.

Das Verfahren läßt sich besonders gut mit dünnen und leicht tordierbaren Paneelen durchführen. Die Schrägstellung eines in zweiter Reihe angeordneten dünnen Paneels nimmt durch starke Torsion auf sehr kurzer Distanz ab. Der in der Verlegeebene befindliche nicht tordierte Rest eines Paneels beziehungsweise einer Paneelreihe, ist sicher verriegelt. Nur bei dem kurzen schräggestellten Stück des letzten Paneels der zweiten Reihe können die Halteprofile der langen Schmalseiten während der Verlegearbeiten außer Eingriff geraten. Sie lassen sich aber gemeinsam mit dem an der kurzen Schmalseite angefügten neuen Paneel leicht wieder ineinanderfügen.The process works particularly well with thin and light perform twistable panels. The inclination of one in second row of thin panels arranged by strong Torsion from a very short distance. The one in the installation level not twisted rest of a panel respectively a row of panels, is securely locked. Only with the short one slanted piece of the last panel of the second row can the holding profiles of the long narrow sides during the Laying work disengaged. But you can together with the new one attached to the short narrow side Slightly reassemble the panel.

Besonders gelenkig und haltbar sind rechteckige tafelförmige Paneele, die an zueinander parallelen Schmalseiten sich über die Länge der Schmalseiten erstreckende komplementäre Halteprofile aufweisen, wobei ein Halteprofil als Gelenkvorsprung mit einer konvexen Wölbung und das komplementäre Halteprofil als Pfannenaussparung mit einer konkaven Wölbung versehen ist, wobei jeder Gelenkvorsprung eines neuen Paneels unter geringer Aufweitung der Pfannenaussparung eines verlegten Paneels in diese eingefügt und das neue Paneel schließlich durch Schwenken in die Ebene des verlegten Paneels verriegelt wird. Die zur Verlegung und Verriegelung notwenige Verformung der Halteprofile ist wesentlich geringer als bei Halteprofilen, die senkrecht zu ihren Schmalseiten in der Verlegeebene zusammengedrückt werden müssen. Vorteilhaft steht der Gelenkvorsprung nicht weiter von der Schmalseite hervor, als das Dickenmaß des Paneels. Auf diese Weise besteht ein weiterer Vorteil darin, dass das Halteprofil mit sehr wenig Verschnitt an der Schmalseite eines Paneels angefräst werden kann.Rectangular tabular ones are particularly flexible and durable Panels that overlap on parallel narrow sides complementary holding profiles extending the length of the narrow sides have, wherein a holding profile as a joint projection with a convex curvature and the complementary holding profile is provided with a concave curvature as a pan recess, whereby each hinge projection of a new panel is less than Widening the pan recess of a laid panel in these inserted and finally the new panel by swiveling is locked in the level of the installed panel. The for Laying and locking necessary deformation of the holding profiles is much lower than with holding profiles that compressed perpendicular to their narrow sides in the installation plane Need to become. The joint projection is advantageous no further from the narrow side than the thickness of the Panel. In this way, another advantage is that the holding profile with very little waste on the narrow side of a panel can be milled.

Die auch als Formschlußprofile zu bezeichneten Halteprofile der langen Schmalseiten zweier Paneele bilden im verlegten Zustand zweier Paneele ein gemeinsames Gelenk, wobei die dem Untergrund abgewandte Oberseite des Gelenkvorsprungs eines Paneels vorzugsweise eine schräge Materialabtragung aufweist, die sich bis zum freien Ende des Gelenkvorsprungs erstreckt, und wobei die Dicke des Gelenkvorsprungs durch die Materialabtragung zum freien Ende hin zunehmend verringert ist, und durch die Materialabtragung ein Bewegungsfreiraum für das gemeinsame Gelenk geschaffen ist.The retaining profiles also referred to as positive locking profiles long narrow sides of two panels form when laid two panels have a joint, the sub-floor opposite top of the hinge projection of a panel preferably has an oblique material removal that extends up to extends to the free end of the hinge projection, and wherein the Thickness of the joint projection due to the removal of material free end is increasingly reduced, and due to material removal a freedom of movement for the joint is created is.

Die Konstruktion gestattet eine gelenkige Bewegung zweier miteinander verbundener Paneele. Insbesondere können zwei miteinander verbundene Paneele an der Verbindungsstelle nach oben durchgeknickt werden. Liegt beispielsweise ein Paneel auf einem Untergrund mit einer Erhebung, so dass eine Schmalseite des Paneels bei Belastung auf den Untergrund gedrückt wird und sich - die gegenüberliegende Schmalseite aufwärts wippt, so wird ein an der aufwärts wippenden Schmalseite befestigtes zweites Paneel mit nach oben bewegt. Die dabei wikenden Biegekräfte schädigen die schmalen Querschnitte der Formschlußprofile jedoch nicht. Statt dessen findet eine Gelenkbewegung statt.The construction allows an articulated movement of two together connected panels. In particular, two can work together connected panels at the connection point upwards be buckled. For example, if a panel is on top of one Underground with an elevation so that a narrow side of the panel is pressed onto the surface when loaded and - the opposite narrow side bounces upwards, so one second panel attached to the upward rocking narrow side moved up with. Damage the bending forces that arise the narrow cross-sections of the form-fitting profiles, however Not. Instead, a joint movement takes place.

Ein mit dem vorgeschlagenen Befestigungsystem verlegter Fußboden weist eine an unregelmäßige rauhe oder gewellte Untergründe angepaßte Nachgiebigkeit auf. Das Befestigungsystem eignet sich daher besonders gut für Paneele zur Renovierung unregelmäßiger Fußböden in Altbauten. Selbstverständlich ist es auch für eine Verlegung von Paneelen auf einer weichen Zwischenlage besser geeignet als das bekannte Befestigungssystem.A floor laid with the proposed fastening system shows irregular rough or wavy surfaces adjusted compliance. The fastening system is suitable therefore particularly good for panels for renovation irregular Floors in old buildings. Of course it is also for one Laying panels on a soft intermediate layer is better suitable as the known fastening system.

Die Konstruktion trägt dem Prinzip der "angepaßten Verformbarkeit" Rechnung. Dieses Prinzip beruht auf der Erkenntnis, dass sehr steife und dadurch vermeintlich stabile Verbindungsstellen hohe Kerbspannungen verursachen und dadurch leicht versagen. Um dies zu vermeiden, sollen Bauteile so gestaltet sein, dass sie eine auf den Einsatzzweck abgestimmte Nachgiebigkeit oder "angepaßte Verformbarkeit" aufweisen und auf diese Weise Kerbspannungen vermindert werden.The construction is based on the principle of "adapted deformability" Bill. This principle is based on the knowledge that very stiff and therefore supposedly stable connection points cause high notch stresses and therefore easily fail. Around To avoid this, components should be designed so that they a compliance or "adapted to the intended use Have deformability "and in this way notch stresses can be reduced.

Darüber hinaus sind die Formschlußprofile so ausgelegt, dass eine Belastung der Oberseite der Fußbodenpaneele im verlegten Zustand von der oberseitigen Wand der Pfannenaussparung eines ersten Paneels in den Gelenkvorsprung des zweiten Paneels und von dem Gelenkvorsprung des zweiten Paneels in die unterseitige Wand des ersten Paneels übertragen wird. Die Wände der Pfannenaussparung des ersten Paneels haben in verlegtem Zustand Kontakt mit der Ober- und Unterseite des Gelenkvorsprungs des zweiten Paneels. Die obere Wand der Pfannenaussparung hat jedoch nur in einem kurzen Bereich an dem freien Ende der oberen Wand der Pfannenaussparung Kontakt mit dem Gelenkvorsprung des zweiten Paneels. Auf diese Weise gestattet die Konstruktion unter geringer elastischer Verformung der Wände der Pfannenaussparung eine Gelenkbewegung zwischen dem Paneel mit der Pfannenaussparung und dem Paneel mit dem Gelenkvorsprung. Auf diese Weise ist die Steifigkeit der Verbindung bestens angepaßt an eine unregelmäßige Unterlage, welche zwangsläufig zu einer Knickbewegung zwischen aneinander befestigten Paneelen führt.In addition, the positive locking profiles are designed so that a load on the top of the floor panels in the installed Condition of the top wall of the pan recess one first panel in the hinge projection of the second panel and from the hinge projection of the second panel to the underside Wall of the first panel is transferred. The walls of the pan recess of the first panel are in contact when laid with the top and bottom of the hinge projection of the second panel. However, the top wall of the pan recess has only in a short area at the free end of the top Wall of the socket recess contact with the joint projection of the second panel. In this way, the construction allows under less elastic deformation of the pan recess walls an articulated movement between the panel with the pan recess and the panel with the joint projection. To this The rigidity of the connection is well adapted to an irregular document, which inevitably leads to a Buckling movement between panels fastened together.

Ein weiterer Vorteil wird darin gesehen, dass sich das erfindungsgemäßen Verlege- und Verriegelungsverfahren besser für eine mehrfache Verlegung eignet als die bekannten Verfahren, weil die Paneele wiederholter Verlegung und nach langem Gebrauch auf einem unregelmäßigen Untergrund keine Vorschädigung der Formschlußprofile aufweisen. Die Formschlußprofile sind formstabil und haltbar. Sie können wesentlich länger benutzt und während ihres Lebenszyklus häufiger wiederverlegt werden.Another advantage is seen in the fact that the invention Laying and locking procedures better for one multiple laying is more suitable than the known methods because the panels after repeated installation and after long use an irregular subsurface does not damage the Have positive locking profiles. The form-fitting profiles are dimensionally stable and durable. You can use and much longer are relocated more often during their life cycle.

Vorteilhaft bilden die konvexe Wölbung des Gelenkvorsprungs und die konkave Wölbung der Pfannenaussparung im wesentlichen je einen Kreisabschnitt, wobei im verlegten Zustand der Kreismittelpunkt der Kreisabschnitte auf der Oberseite des Gelenkvorsprungs oder unterhalb der Oberseite des Gelenkvorsprungs angeordnet ist. Im letzteren Fall liegt der Kreismittelpunkt innerhalb des Querschnitts des Gelenkvorsprungs.The convex curvature of the joint projection and advantageously form the concave curvature of the pan recess essentially each a circular section, with the center of the circle in the installed state the circular sections on the top of the joint projection or below the top of the hinge projection is arranged. In the latter case, the center of the circle lies within the cross section of the joint projection.

Durch diese einfache Konstruktion ergibt sich ein Gelenk, dessen konvexe Wölbung des Gelenkvorsprungs ähnlich einer Gelenkkugel und die konkave Wölbung der Pfannenaussparung ähnlich einer Gelenkpfanne ausgebildet sind, wobei im Unterschied zu einem Pfannengelenk selbstverständlich nur eine ebene Drehbewegung aber keine sphärische Drehbewegung möglich ist.This simple construction results in a joint, the convex curvature of the joint projection similar to a joint ball and the concave curvature of the pan recess is similar to one Joint socket are formed, in contrast to one Of course, the socket joint only has a flat rotary movement but no spherical rotation is possible.

In einer günstigen Ausführung ist der weitest hervorstehende Punkt der konvexen Wölbung des Gelenkvorsprungs eines Paneels so angeordnet, dass er sich etwa unterhalb der Oberkante des Paneels befindet. Dadurch ergibt sich ein im Verhältnis zur Gesamtdicke des Paneels relativ starker Querschnitt für den Gelenkvorsprung. Außerdem bietet die konkave Wölbung der Pfannenaussparung eine ausreichend große Hinterschneidung für die konvexe Wölbung des Gelenkvorsprungs, so dass diese durch in der Verlegeebene wirkende Zugkräfte kaum auseinander zu bewegen sind.In a cheap version, the most prominent one Point of the convex curvature of the joint projection of a panel arranged so that it is approximately below the top edge of the Panels. This results in a ratio to the total thickness of the panel relatively strong cross-section for the joint projection. The concave curvature of the pan recess also offers a sufficiently large undercut for the convex curvature of the joint projection, so that this by in the tensile forces acting on the installation level can hardly be moved apart are.

Die Gelenkeigenschaften zweier miteinander verbundener Paneele können weiter verbessert werden, wenn die dem Untergrund zugewandte Wand der Pfannenaussparung eines Paneels auf ihrer Innenseite eine schräge Materialabtragung aufweist, die sich bis zum freien Ende der Wand erstreckt und die Wandstärke dieser Wand zum freien Ende zunehmend dünner ist. Dabei ist durch die Materialabtragung im verlegten Zustand zweier Paneele ein Bewegungsfreiraum für das gemeinsame Gelenk geschaffen. Mit dieser Verbesserung wird der Anteil an elastischer Verformung der Wände der Pfannenaussparung während der Durchbiegung der verlegten Paneele nach oben weiter verringert.The joint properties of two interconnected panels can be further improved if the one facing the underground Wall of the pan recess of a panel on the inside has an oblique material removal that extends up to extends to the free end of the wall and the wall thickness of this Wall towards the free end is increasingly thinner. It is through the Removal of material when two panels are installed provides freedom of movement created for the common joint. With this The proportion of elastic deformation of the walls will improve the pan recess during the deflection of the installed Panels further reduced upwards.

Zweckmäßig ist es auch, wenn die Pfannenaussparung eines Paneels zur Verbindung mit dem Gelenkvorsprung eines weiteren Paneels durch eine federelastische Verformung ihrer unteren Wand aufweitbar ist und, dass die während des Fügens auftretende federelastische Verformung der unteren Wand im fertig verbundenen Zustand zweier Paneele wieder zurückgenommen ist. Die Formschlußprofile werden dadurch nur für den Fügevorgang und während einer Gelenkbewegung elastisch verformt und unterliegen, wenn sie nicht belastet sind, keiner elastischen Verspannung.It is also useful if the pan recess of a panel for connection to the joint projection of another panel by a resilient deformation of its lower wall is expandable and that the spring elastic occurring during joining Deformation of the bottom wall in the finished joint State of two panels is withdrawn. The Form-fit profiles are therefore only for the joining process and deformed and subject to elastic movement during a joint, if they are not loaded, no elastic Strain.

Die Fähigkeit, zwei Paneele auch an deren kurzen Schmalseiten gelenkig zu verbinden, kommt der Nachgiebigkeit eines Fußbodenbelags zugute.The ability to have two panels on their short narrow sides connecting flexibly comes the resilience of a floor covering benefit.

Bevorzugt sind die Formschlußprofile einstückig an den Schmalseiten der Paneele angeformt. Die Paneele lassen sich sehr einfach und mit geringem Verschnitt herstellen.The form-fitting profiles are preferably in one piece on the narrow sides molded on the panels. The panels can be very easily and produce with little waste.

Besonders geeignet ist das Verlegeverfahren, wenn die Paneele im wesentlichen aus einem MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard), HDF (High Densitiy Fiberboard) oder einem Spanplattenmaterial bestehen. Diese Materialien sind einfach zu bearbeiten und erhalten, beispielsweise durch eine spanende Bearbeitung, eine ausreichende Oberflächenqualität. Außerdem weisen diese Materialien eine hohe Formstabilität der gefrästen Profile auf.The installation method is particularly suitable when the panels essentially from an MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard), HDF (High Density Fiberboard) or a chipboard material. These materials are easy to edit and maintain, for example by machining, a sufficient Surface quality. These materials also exhibit a high dimensional stability of the milled profiles.

Nach der Zeichnung ist das für das Verfahren zur Verlegung und Verriegelung von rechteckigen Paneelen benötigte Befestigungssystem 1 am Beispiel langgestreckter rechteckiger Paneele 2 und 3 erläutert, von denen in Fig. 1 ein Ausschnitt dargestellt ist. Das Befestigungssystem 1 weist an den Schmalseiten der Paneele angeordnete Halteprofile auf, die als komplementäre Formschlußprofile 4 und 5 ausgebildet sind. Die sich gegenüberliegenden Formschlußprofile eines Paneels sind jeweils komplementär ausgebildet. Auf diese Weise kann an jedes bereits verlegte Paneel 2 ein weiteres Paneel 3 angebracht werden.According to the drawing, this is for the procedure for laying and Locking of rectangular panels required fastening system 1 using the example of elongated rectangular panels 2 and 3 explained, a section of which is shown in FIG. 1 is. The fastening system 1 has on the narrow sides of the panels arranged holding profiles, which as complementary Form-fitting profiles 4 and 5 are formed. The opposite Form-fitting profiles of a panel are complementary educated. This way, everyone can already installed panel 2 another panel 3 can be attached.

Die Formschlußprofile 4 und 5 basieren auf dem Stand der Technik des deutschen Gebrauchsmusters G 79 28 703 U1. Insbesondere auf den Formschlußprofilen des Ausführungsbeispiels, das in den Figuren 14, 15 und 16 sowie in dem zugehörigen Beschreibungsteil der G 79 28 703 U1 offenbart ist.The positive locking profiles 4 and 5 are based on the prior art of the German utility model G 79 28 703 U1. In particular on the form-fitting profiles of the embodiment that in the Figures 14, 15 and 16 and in the associated description G 79 28 703 U1 is disclosed.

Die für das erfindungsgemäße Verlegeverfahren vorgesehenen Formschlußprofile sind derart weitergebildet, dass sie eine gelenkige und nachgiebige Verbindung von Paneelen ermöglichen.The provided for the laying method according to the invention Form-locking profiles are developed in such a way that they are articulated and allow flexible connection of panels.

Eines der Formschlußprofile 4 der vorliegenden Erfindung ist mit einem von der Schmalseite abstehenden Gelenkvorsprung 6 versehen. Die Unterseite des Gelenkvorsprungs 6, die im verlegten Zustand der Unterlage zugewandt ist, weist zum Zweck der gelenkigen Verbindung einen Querschnitt mit einer konvexen Wölbung 7 auf. Die konvexe Wölbung 7 ist in dem komplementären Formschlußprofil 5 drehgelagert. In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die konvexe Wölbung 7 kreisabschnittsförmig ausgebildet. Der unterhalb des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 angeordnete Teil 8 der Schmalseite des Paneels 3, der im verlegten Zustand der Unterlage zugewandt ist, steht von dem freien Ende des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 weiter zurück als der oberhalb des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 angeordnete Teil 9 der Schmalseite. In dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel tritt der unterhalb des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 angeordnete Teil 8 der Schmalseite etwa doppelt so weit von dem freien Ende des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 zurück, wie der oberhalb des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 angeordnete Teil 9 der Schmalseite. Dies liegt darin begründet, dass der Kreisabschnitt der konvexen Wölbung 7 relativ breit ausgebildet ist. Dadurch ist der weitest hervorstehende Punkt der konvexen Wölbung 7 des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 so angeordnet, dass er sich etwa unterhalb der Oberkante 10 des Paneels 3 befindet.One of the positive locking profiles 4 of the present invention is with a hinge projection 6 protruding from the narrow side Mistake. The underside of the hinge projection 6, which was relocated Condition of the document is facing, for the purpose of hinged connection a cross section with a convex curvature 7 on. The convex curvature 7 is in the complementary Positive locking profile 5 rotatably. In the illustrated embodiment the convex curvature 7 is circular educated. The one arranged below the joint projection 6 Part 8 of the narrow side of the panel 3, which was installed in the The condition of the document is facing the free one End of the hinge projection 6 further back than that above the Joint projection 6 arranged part 9 of the narrow side. By doing The embodiment shown occurs below the joint projection 6 arranged part 8 of the narrow side about twice as much far from the free end of the hinge projection 6 as the Part 9 of the narrow side arranged above the joint projection 6. This is because the circular section of the convex curvature 7 is relatively wide. This is the most protruding point of the convex curvature 7 of the joint projection 6 arranged so that it is approximately below the Upper edge 10 of the panel 3 is located.

Der oberhalb des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 angeordnete Teil 9 der Schmalseite tritt an der Oberseite des Paneels 3 von der Schmalseite hervor und bildet eine Fugenstoßfläche 9a. Zwischen dieser Fugenstoßfläche 9a und dem Gelenkvorsprung 6 des Paneels 3 ist der Teil 9 der Schmalseite zurückgesetzt. Dies gewährleistet, dass der Teil 9 der Schmalseite immer eine geschlossene oberseitige Fuge mit der komplementäten Schmalseite eines weiteren Paneels 2 bildet.The part 9 which is arranged above the joint projection 6 Narrow side occurs at the top of the panel 3 from the Narrow side emerges and forms a joint joint surface 9a. Between this joint joint surface 9a and the joint projection 6 of the panel 3, part 9 of the narrow side is reset. This ensures that part 9 of the narrow side is always a closed one joint on the top with the complementary narrow side of a forms further panels 2.

Die der konvexen Wölbung 7 des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 gegenüberliegende Oberseite des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 weist ein kurzes gerades Teilstück 11 auf, das im verlegten Zustand ebenfalls parallel zum Untergrund U angeordnet ist. Von diesem kurzen Teilstück 11 zum freien Ende hin weist die Oberseite des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 eine schräge Materialabtragung 12 auf, die sich bis zum freien Ende des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 erstreckt.The opposite of the convex curvature 7 of the joint projection 6 Top of the hinge projection 6 has a short straight section 11, which also in the installed state is arranged parallel to the underground U. From this short Section 11 toward the free end faces the top of the hinge projection 6 an inclined material removal 12, the extends to the free end of the joint projection 6.

Das zu dem besprochenen Formschlußprofil 4 komplementäre Formschlußprofil 5 einer Schmalseite weist eine Pfannenaussparung 20 auf. Diese ist im wesentlichen von einer unteren im verlegten Zustand dem Untergrund U zugewandten Wand 21 und einer oberen Wand 22 begrenzt. Auf der Innenseite der Pfannenaussparung 20 ist die untere Wand 21 mit einer konkaven Wölbung 23 versehen. Dieser kommt die Funktion einer Lagerschale zu. Die konkave Wölbung 23 ist ebenfalls kreisabschnittsförmig ausgebildet. Damit die relativ breite konkave Wölbung 23 an der unteren Wand 21 der Pfannenaussparung 20 Platz findet, steht die untere Wand 21 weiter von der Schmalseite des Paneels 2 hervor als die obere Wand 22. Die konkave Wölbung 23 bildet an dem freien Ende der unteren Wand 21 eine Hinterschneidung. Im fertig verlegten Zustand zweier Paneele 2 und 3 wird diese Hinterschneidung von dem Gelenkvorsprung 6 des zugeordneten Formschlußprofils 4 des benachbarten Paneels 3 hintergriffen. Das Maß an Hintergreifung, die Differenz also zwischen der dicksten Stelle des freien Endes der unteren Wand sowie der Dicke der unteren Wand an dem tiefsten Punkt der konkaven Wölbung 23 ist so abgestimmt, dass ein guter Kompromiß zwischen einer gelenkigen Nachgiebigkeit zweier Paneele 2 und 3 sowie einem guten Halt gegen ein Auseinanderziehen der Formschlußprofile 4 und 5 in der Verlegeebene gegeben ist.The form-fitting profile complementary to the form-fitting profile 4 discussed 5 of a narrow side has a pan recess 20 on. This is essentially laid from a lower one Condition of the underground U facing wall 21 and an upper one Wall 22 limited. On the inside of the pan recess 20, the lower wall 21 is provided with a concave curvature 23. This has the function of a bearing shell. The concave Curvature 23 is also designed in the form of a circular segment. So that the relatively wide concave curvature 23 on the lower wall 21 of the pan recess 20, the bottom wall is 21 further from the narrow side of the panel 2 than the upper one Wall 22. The concave curvature 23 forms at the free end the lower wall 21 an undercut. In the finished laid Condition of two panels 2 and 3 is this undercut by the hinge projection 6 of the associated positive locking profile 4 of the attacked adjacent panels 3. The degree of engagement, the difference between the thickest part of the free End of the bottom wall and the thickness of the bottom wall the lowest point of the concave curvature 23 is matched that a good compromise between flexible resilience two panels 2 and 3 and a good hold against one Pull the form-fitting profiles 4 and 5 apart in the installation plane given is.

Das Befestigungssystem des Standes der Technik gemäß der Figuren 14, 15 und 16 des Gebrauchsmusters G 79 28 703 U1 weist demgegenüber ein erheblich größeres Maß an Hinterschneidung auf. Es ergeben sich dadurch außerordentlich steife Verbindungsstellen, die durch die Beanspruchung auf einem unregelmäßigen Untergrund U hohe Kerbspannungen verursachen.The prior art fastening system according to the figures 14, 15 and 16 of the utility model G 79 28 703 U1 in contrast, a significantly larger degree of undercut on. This results in extremely stiff joints, caused by stress on an irregular Underground U cause high notch tensions.

Die Innenseite der oberen Wand 22 der Pfannenaussparung 20 des Paneels 2 ist nach dem Ausführungsbeispiel im verlegten Zustand parallel zu dem Untergrund U angeordnet.The inside of the top wall 22 of the pan recess 20 of the Panel 2 is in the installed state according to the embodiment arranged parallel to the underground U.

Auf der dem Untergrund U zugewandten unteren Wand 21 der Pfannenaussparung 20 des Paneels 2 weist die Innenseite der Wand 21 eine schräge Materialabtragung 24 auf, die sich bis zum freien Ende der unteren Wand 21 erstreckt. Dadurch wird die Wandstärke dieser Wand zum freien Ende zunehmend dünner. Die Materialabtragung 24 schließt sich gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel an das eine Ende der konkaven Wölbung 23 an.On the lower wall 21 of the pan recess facing the underground U. 20 of the panel 2 has the inside of the wall 21 an oblique material removal 24, which extends to the free End of the lower wall 21 extends. This will change the wall thickness this wall increasingly thinner towards the free end. The removal of material 24 follows in accordance with the exemplary embodiment one end of the concave curvature 23.

Der Gelenkvorsprung 6 des Paneels 3 und die Pfannenaussparung 20 des Paneels 2 bilden, wie in der Fig. 2 zu sehen, ein gemeinsames Gelenk G. Die oben besprochene Materialabtragung 12 an der Oberseite des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 des Paneels 3 sowie die Materialabtragung 24 der unteren Wand 21 der Pfannenaussparung 20 des Paneels 2 schaffen im verlegten Zustand der Paneele 2 und 3 Bewegungsfreiräume 13 beziehungsweise 25, die dem Gelenk G in einem kleinen Winkelbereich eine Drehung ermöglichen.The hinge projection 6 of the panel 3 and the socket recess 20 of the panel 2 form, as can be seen in FIG. 2, a common one Joint G. The material removal discussed above 12 at the top of the hinge projection 6 of the panel 3 and the Material removal 24 of the lower wall 21 of the pan recess 20 of the panel 2 create in the installed state of the panels 2 and 3 freedom of movement 13 and 25, respectively, that the joint G allow rotation within a small angular range.

Im verlegten Zustand steht das kurze gerade Teilstück 11 der Oberseite des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 des Paneels 3 mit der Innenseite der oberen Wand 22 der Pfannenaussparung 20 des Paneels 2 in Kontakt. Außerdem liegt die konvexe Wölbung 7 des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 an der konkaven Wölbung 23 der unteren Wand 21 der Pfannenaussparung 20 des Paneels 2 an.In the installed state, the short straight section 11 is the Top of the hinge projection 6 of the panel 3 with the inside the top wall 22 of the pan recess 20 of the panel 2 in contact. In addition, there is the convex curvature 7 of the joint projection 6 on the concave curvature 23 of the lower wall 21 of the Pan recess 20 of the panel 2.

Die der Oberseite zugewandten seitlichen Fugenstoßflächen 9a und 26 zweier verbundener Paneele 2 und 3 liegen immer eindeutig aneinander an. In der Praxis ist eine gleichzeitige exakte Anlage der konvexen Wölbung 7 des Gelenkvorsprung 6 des Paneels 3 an der konkaven Wölbung 23 der Pfannenaussparung 20 des Paneels 2 nicht möglich. Fertigungstoleranzen würden dazu führen, dass entweder die Fugenstoßflächen 9a und 26 exakt aneinander anliegen oder Gelenkvorsprung 6/Aussparung 20 exakt aneinander anliegen. In der Praxis sind die Formschlußprofile daher so ausgelegt, dass die Fugenstoßflächen 9a und 26 immer exakt aneinander anliegen und Gelenkvorsprung 6/Aussparung 20 für eine exakte Anlage nicht genügend weit ineinander bewegt werden können. Da die Fertigungstoleranzen jedoch in der Größenordnung von hundertstel Millimeter liegen, schmiegen sich auch Gelenkvorsprung 6/Aussparung 20 nahezu exakt aneinander an.The side joint joint surfaces 9a facing the upper side and 26 of two connected panels 2 and 3 are always unique to each other. In practice, there is a simultaneous exact Installation of the convex curvature 7 of the joint projection 6 of the Panels 3 on the concave curvature 23 of the pan recess 20 panel 2 not possible. Manufacturing tolerances would do so lead that either the joint faces 9a and 26 exactly to each other fit or joint projection 6 / recess 20 exactly abut each other. In practice, the form-fitting profiles therefore designed so that the joint faces 9a and 26 always lie exactly against each other and joint projection 6 / recess 20 not moved far enough into each other for an exact system can be. However, since the manufacturing tolerances are of the order of magnitude of hundredths of a millimeter nestle also joint projection 6 / recess 20 almost exactly to each other on.

Paneele 2 und 3 mit den beschriebenen komplementären Formschlußprofilen 4 und 5 lassen sich auf verschiedene Weisen aneinander befestigen. Nach Fig. 3 ist ein Paneel 2 mit einer Pfannenaussparung 20 bereits verlegt, während ein zweites Paneel 3 mit einem komplementären Gelenkvorsprung 6 in Pfeilrichtung P schräg stehend in die Pfannenaussparung 20 des ersten Paneels 2 eingesteckt wird. Danach wird das zweite Paneel 3 um den gemeinsamen Kreismittelpunkt K der Kreisabschnitte der konvexen Wölbung 7 des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 und der konkaven Wölbung 23 der Pfannenaussparung 20 gedreht, bis das zweite Paneel 3 auf dem Untergrund U aufliegt.Panels 2 and 3 with the complementary positive locking profiles described 4 and 5 can be combined in different ways Fasten. 3 is a panel 2 with a Pan recess 20 already moved while a second panel 3 with a complementary joint projection 6 in the direction of the arrow P sloping into the pan recess 20 of the first Panel 2 is inserted. Then the second panel 3 around the common circle center K of the circular sections of the convex curvature 7 of the joint projection 6 and the concave curvature 23 of the pan recess 20 rotated until the second panel 3 rests on the underground U.

Eine weitere Fügeart der besprochenen Paneele 2 und 3 ist in Fig. 4 dargestellt, wonach das erste Paneel 2 mit einer Pfannenaussparung 20 verlegt ist und ein zweites Paneel 3 mit einem Gelenkvorsprung 6 in der Verlegeebene und senkrecht zu den Formschlußprofilen 4 und 5 in Pfeilrichtung P verschoben wird, bis sich die Wände 21 und 22 der Pfannenaussparung 20 ein wenig elastisch aufweiten und die konvexe Wölbung 7 des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 die Hinterschneidung an dem vorderen Ende der konkaven Wölbung 23 der unteren Wand überwunden hat und die endgültige Verlegeposition erreicht ist.Another type of joining of the panels 2 and 3 discussed is in Fig. 4 shown, after which the first panel 2 with a pan recess 20 is laid and a second panel 3 with a Joint projection 6 in the installation plane and perpendicular to the Form-fitting profiles 4 and 5 are moved in the direction of arrow P, until the walls 21 and 22 of the pan recess 20 a little expand elastically and the convex curvature 7 of the joint projection 6 the undercut at the front end of the concave Curvature 23 has overcome the lower wall and the final Installation position is reached.

Letztere Fügeart wird bevorzugt für die kurzen Schmalseiten eines Paneels verwendet, wenn diese mit den gleichen komplementären Formschlußprofilen 4 und 5 versehen sind, wie die langen Schmalseiten der Paneele.The latter type of joining is preferred for the short narrow sides Panels used if these are complementary with the same Form-fitting profiles 4 and 5 are provided, like the long ones Narrow sides of the panels.

In Fig. 5 ist das Befestigungssystem 1 im Einsatz dargestellt. Die Paneele 2 und 3 liegen auf einem unregelmäßigen Untergrund U. Das erste Paneel 2 mit dem Formschlußprofil 5 ist auf seiner Oberseite belastet worden. Dadurch ist die Schmalseite des Paneels 2 mit dem Formschlußprofil 5 angehoben worden. Das mit dem Formschlußprofil 5 verbundene Formschlußprofil 4 des Paneels 3 ist mit angehoben worden. Durch das Gelenk G ergibt sich ein Knick zwischen den beiden Paneelen 2 und 3. Die Bewegungsfreiräume 13 und 25 schaffen Platz für die Drehbewegung des Gelenks. Das aus beiden Paneelen 2 und 3 gebildete Gelenk G ist ein Stück weit aus der Verlegeebene nach oben bewegt worden. Der Bewegungsfreiraum 13 ist für die Drehung komplett ausgenutzt worden, so dass die Oberseite des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 des Paneels 3 im Bereich der Materialabtragung 12 an der Innenseite der Wand 22 des Paneels 2 anliegt. Die Verbindungsstelle ist in sich nachgiebig und zwingt den beteiligten Formschlußprofilen 4 und 4 keine unnötige und materialermüdende Biegebelastung auf.5 shows the fastening system 1 in use. Panels 2 and 3 are on an irregular surface U. The first panel 2 with the form-fitting profile 5 is on it Top has been charged. This is the narrow side of the panel 2 has been raised with the positive locking profile 5. That with the positive locking profile 5 connected positive locking profile 4 of the panel 3 has also been raised. Through the joint G results there is a kink between the two panels 2 and 3. The freedom of movement 13 and 25 create space for the rotary movement of the joint. The joint G formed from both panels 2 and 3 has been moved up a bit from the installation level. The freedom of movement 13 is fully utilized for the rotation so that the top of the hinge projection 6 of the panel 3 in the area of material removal 12 on the inside the wall 22 of the panel 2 rests. The liaison office is flexible in itself and forces the positive locking profiles involved 4 and 4 no unnecessary and material tiring Bending load on.

Die bei Formschlußprofilen nach dem Stand der Technik früh eintretende Schädigung durch Bruch des Gelenkvorsprungs oder der wände der Formschlußprofile wird somit vermieden.That which occurs early in form-fitting profiles according to the prior art Damage due to breakage of the joint projection or the walls of the interlocking profiles is thus avoided.

Ein weiterer Vorteil ergibt sich bei einer Gelenkbewegung gemäß der Fig. 5. Dieser ist darin zu sehen, dass die beiden Paneele nach Entlastung durch ihr Eigengewicht wieder in ihre Verlegeebene zurückfallen. Eine geringe elastische Verformung der Wände der Pfannenaussparung liegt auch in diesem Fall vor. Diese elastische Verformung unterstützt das Zurückfallen der Paneele in die Verlegeebene. Es kommt lediglich zu einer sehr geringen elastische Verformung, weil der Drehpunkt des Gelenks, der durch die kreisabschnittsförmigen Wölbungen 7 und 23 festgelegt ist, sich innerhalb des Querschnitts des Gelenkvorsprungs 6 des Paneels 3 befindet.A further advantage arises in the case of a joint movement according to 5. This can be seen in the fact that the two panels after being relieved by their own weight, back to their installation level fall behind. A slight elastic deformation of the walls the pan recess is also present in this case. This elastic Deformation helps the panels to fall back to the laying level. There is only a very small one elastic deformation because of the pivot point of the joint, the determined by the curved sections 7 and 23 is within the cross section of the hinge projection 6 of the Panel 3 is located.

In Fig. 6 ist eine Gelenkbewegung zweier verlegter Paneele 2 und 3 in entgegengesetzter Drehrichtung dargestellt. Die auf einem unregelmäßigen Untergrund U verlegten Paneele 2 und 3 sind nach unten durchgeknickt. Die Konstruktion ist so ausgelegt, dass bei einem Durchknicken der Verbindungsstelle aus der Verlegeebene zum Untergrund U hin eine deutlich stärkere elastische Verformung der unteren Wand 21 der Pfannenaussparung 20 auftritt als bei der Durchknickung aus der Verlegeebene nach oben. Der Sinn dieser Maßnahme ist darin zu sehen, dass die nach unten durchgeknickten Paneele 2 und 3 nach Entlastung nicht durch ihr Eigengewicht wieder in die Verlegeebene zurückkehren können. Die stärkere elastische Verformung der unteren Wand 21 der Pfannenaussparung 20 erzeugt jedoch eine Spannkraft, die die Paneele 2 und 3 nach Entlastung sofort wieder federelastisch in die Verlegeebene zurück bewegt.6 shows an articulated movement of two installed panels 2 and 3 shown in the opposite direction of rotation. The on panels 2 and 3 laid on an irregular underground are buckled down. The construction is designed that if the connection point bends out of the Laying level towards the underground U is a much stronger elastic Deformation of the lower wall 21 of the pan recess 20 occurs than when bending from the installation level above. The point of this measure is that the panels 2 and 3 buckled downwards after relief do not return to the installation level due to their own weight can. The stronger elastic deformation of the lower one Wall 21 of socket recess 20, however, creates a tension force, the panels 2 and 3 immediately after relief resiliently moved back to the installation level.

Die beschriebenen Formschlußprofile 4 und 5 sind vorliegend einstückig an den Schmalseiten der Paneele 2 und 3 angeformt. Dies geschieht vorzugsweise durch einen sogenannten Formatiervorgang, bei dem in einem Durchlauf die Formschlußprofile 4 und 5 mit mehreren hintereinandergeschalteten Fräswerkzeugen die Form der Schmalseiten der Paneele 2 und 3 fräsen. Die Paneele 2 und 3 des beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiels bestehen im wesentlichen aus einer MDF-Platte mit einer Dicke von 8 mm. Die MDF-Platte ist an Ihrer Oberseite verschleißfest und dekorativ beschichtet. An Ihrer Unterseite ist eine sogenannte Gegenzugschicht angebracht, die die von der oberseitigen Beschichtung verursachten Eigenspannungen kompensiert.The form-fitting profiles 4 and 5 described are present molded in one piece on the narrow sides of panels 2 and 3. This is preferably done by a so-called formatting process, in which the positive locking profiles 4 and 5 with several milling tools connected in series Mill the shape of the narrow sides of panels 2 and 3. The panels 2 and 3 of the described embodiment essentially exist from an MDF board with a thickness of 8 mm. The MDF board is wear-resistant and decorative on the top coated. At the bottom is a so-called counter-pull layer attached that the from the top coating caused residual stresses.

Schließlich zeigt Fig. 7 zwei Paneele 2 und 3 im verlegten Zustand, wobei ein Befestigungsystem 1 mit einem weichelastisch aushärtenden Füllstoff 30 zum Einsatz kommt. Der Füllstoff 30 ist zwischen allen aneinandergrenzenden Teilen der formschlüssig verbundenen Schmalseiten vorgesehen. Insbesondere die oberseitige Fuge 31 ist mit dem Füllstoff verschlossen, damit keine Feuchtigkeit und kein Schmutz eindringen können. Außerdem bewirkt der im geknickten Zustand zweier Paneele 2 und 3 in sich verformte Füllstoff 30 durch seine Elastizität eine Rückstellung der Paneele 2 und 3 in die Verlegeebene.7 shows two panels 2 and 3 in the installed state, a fastening system 1 with a soft elastic curing filler 30 is used. The filler 30 is form-fitting between all adjacent parts connected narrow sides provided. Especially the top one Groove 31 is closed with the filler, so none Moisture and no dirt can penetrate. It also causes the one in the bent state of two panels 2 and 3 deformed filler 30 due to its elasticity a provision panels 2 and 3 in the installation level.

In Fig. 8 ist eine perspektivische Darstellung der Verlegung eines Fußbodens zu sehen, bei der das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zur Verlegung und Verriegelung von Paneelen angewandt wird. Der Einfachheit der Zeichnung wegen sind die Details der Halteprofile weggelassen worden. Diese entsprechen aber den Formschlußprofilen der Figuren 1 bis 7 und weisen profilierte Gelenkvorsprünge und dazu komplementäre Pfannenaussparungen auf, die sich über die gesamte Länge der Schmalseiten erstrecken.8 is a perspective view of the laying to see a floor in which the inventive method is used for laying and locking panels. For the simplicity of the drawing, the details of the holding profiles are been left out. But these correspond to the Form-locking profiles of Figures 1 to 7 and have profiled Joint projections and complementary socket recesses on, which extend over the entire length of the narrow sides.

Es ist eine erste verlegte Reihe R1 mit rechteckigen tafelförmigen Paneelen 40, 41, 42 und 43 zu erkennen. Die Paneele 40, 41, 42 und 43 der ersten Reihe R1 sind vorzugsweise so verlegt, dass stets Pfannenaussparungen an den freien Seiten eines verlegten Paneels liegen und neue Paneele mit den Gelenkvorsprüngen an die Pfannenaussparungen der verlegten Paneele angefügt werden.It is a first laid row R1 with rectangular tabular Panels 40, 41, 42 and 43 can be seen. The panels 40, 41, 42 and 43 of the first row R1 are preferably laid in such a way that pan recesses are always installed on the free sides of a Panels lie and new panels with the joint projections to the pan recesses of the installed panels be added.

Die Paneele 40, 41, 42 und 43 der ersten Reihe R1 sind an Ihren kurzen Seiten miteinander verriegelt worden. Dies kann entweder in der Verlegeebene durch seitliches Ineinanderschieben in Längsrichtung der Halteprofile der kurzen Schmalseiten geschehen oder alternativ durch Ineinanderfügen der Halteprofile unter Schrägstellung eines neuen Paneels relativ zu einem verlegten Paneel und nachfolgendem Schwenken des neuen Paneels in die Verlegeebene. Die Verlegeebene ist in den Figuren 8 und 9 an der gestrichelten Linie V angedeutet. In beiden Fällen sind die Halteprofile ohne nennenswerte Verformung miteinander verriegelt worden. Die Paneele sind in der zur Verlegeebene senkrechten Richtung verriegelt. Außerdem sind sie in der Richtung senkrecht zur Ebene der Schmalseiten verriegelt.Panels 40, 41, 42 and 43 of the first row R1 are on yours short sides have been locked together. This can either on the installation level by pushing each other in Longitudinal direction of the holding profiles of the short narrow sides happen or alternatively by merging the retaining profiles under Inclination of a new panel relative to an installed one Panel and subsequent swiveling of the new panel into the Laying plane. The laying level is shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 the dashed line V indicated. In both cases they are Holding profiles locked together without any significant deformation Service. The panels are in the perpendicular to the installation plane Locked direction. They are also in the direction locked perpendicular to the plane of the narrow sides.

In einer zweiten Reihe R2 befinden sich die Paneele 44, 45 und 46. Zunächst ist das Paneel 44 mit seiner langen Seite durch Einfügen seines Gelenkvorsprungs unter Schrägstellung relativ zu den Paneelen der ersten Reihe R1 und nachfolgendem Schwenken des Paneels 44 in die Verlegeebene verriegelt worden.The panels 44, 45 and are located in a second row R2 46. First, the panel 44 is through with its long side Inserting its hinge projection relative to the slant to the panels of the first row R1 and subsequent swiveling of the panel 44 has been locked in the installation plane.

Zur Verlegung eines neuen Paneels in zweiter Reihe können mehrere alternative Verfahrensschritte durchgeführt werden, von denen anhand der Figuren 8 und 9 zwei Alternativen beschrieben sind. Eine weitere Alternative wird ohne Darstellung erläutert. Die Verlegung gemäß Fig. 9 sowie die ohne Darstellung anhand der Fig. 9 erläuterten Alternativen zur Verlegung sind nicht Gegenstand der Patentansprüche.Several can be used to lay a new panel in the second row alternative process steps are carried out by those described with reference to Figures 8 and 9, two alternatives are. Another alternative is explained without illustration. The laying according to FIG. 9 and the one based on the illustration The alternatives for laying explained in FIG. 9 are not Subject of the claims.

Bei der Verlegung eines neuen Paneels 46 in zweiter Reihe muß dieses sowohl mit einer langen Seite an der ersten Reihe R1 als auch mit einer kurzen Seite an dem verlegten Paneel 45 verriegelt werden. Zuerst wird das neue Paneel 46 immer an einer kurzen Seite mit einem verlegten Paneel 45 verriegelt.When laying a new panel 46 in the second row this both with a long side on the first row R1 as also locked with a short side on the installed panel 45 become. First, the new panel 46 is always on a short one Locked side with a laid panel 45.

Nach Fig. 8 wird das freie Ende 45a um die verriegelte lange Schmalseite 45b aus der Verlegeebene um einen Schwenkwinkel α nach oben geschwenkt. Dabei tordiert das Paneel 45 derart, dass das Maß des Schwenkwinkels α von dem freien Ende 45a zu dem verriegelten Ende 45c hin abnimmt. Gemäß Fig. 8 bleibt das verriegelte Ende 45c in der Verlegeebene liegen. In dieser Position wird das neue Paneel 46 in einer Schrägstellung relativ zu dem Paneel 45 an dessen freies Ende 45a angesetzt. Das Paneel 46 kann zunächst nicht auf der ganzen Länge der kurzen Seite angesetzt werden, weil das Paneel 45 bereits mit den Paneelen 41 und 42 der ersten Reihe verriegelt ist. Nun wird das Paneel 46 in Richtung des Pfeils A geschwenkt, bis es, wie durch die gestrichelte Schwenkposition 46' ebenfalls unter dem Schwenkwinkel α zur Verlegeebene positioniert ist. In der Schwenkposition 46' wird das Paneel 46 in Richtung des Pfeils B verschoben und der Gelenkvorsprung des Paneels 46 in die Pfannenaussparung der Paneele 42 und 43 der ersten Reihe R1 eingefügt. Dabei wird die kurze Schmalseite des Paneel 46 gleichzeitig ganz auf die kurze Schmalseite 45a des Paneels 45 aufgeschoben. Schließlich werden die Paneele 45 und 46 in Richtung des Pfeils C gemeinsam in die Verlegeebene geschwenkt und mit den Paneelen der ersten Reihe R1 verriegelt.8, the free end 45a is locked around the long Narrow side 45b from the installation plane by a swivel angle α pivoted upwards. The panel 45 twists in such a way that the measure of the pivot angle α from the free end 45a to that locked end 45c decreases. 8 remains locked End 45c in the installation level. In this position the new panel 46 will be inclined relative to the panel 45 attached to the free end 45a. The panel 46 cannot initially along the entire length of the short side be applied because the panel 45 is already with the panels 41 and 42 of the first row is locked. Now the panel 46 pivoted in the direction of arrow A until it is as indicated by the dashed pivot position 46 'also at the pivot angle α is positioned to the installation level. In the swivel position 46 ', the panel 46 is moved in the direction of arrow B. and the hinge projection of panel 46 into the socket recess the panels 42 and 43 of the first row R1 inserted. Doing so the short narrow side of the panel 46 at the same time completely on the short narrow side 45a of panel 45 is pushed on. Finally panels 45 and 46 in the direction of arrow C become common swung into the installation level and with the panels of the first Row R1 locked.

Eine vorschädigung der Halteprofile durch einen hohen Verformungsgrad während der Verlegung und Verriegelung wird vermieden.Pre-damage to the holding profiles due to a high degree of deformation during installation and locking is avoided.

Die Alternative des Verlegeverfahrens gemäß Fig. 9 zeigt Beispiele zur Verlegung von Paneelen, die nicht Gegenstand der Patentansprüche sind. Das Verfahren sieht ebenfalls vor, dass das freie Ende 45a um die verriegelte lange Schmalseite 45b aus der Verlegeebene um einen Schwenkwinkel α nach oben geschwenkt wird, wobei das Paneel 45 tordiert und an dem freien Ende 45a um einen Schwenkwinkel α zur Verlegeebene schräggestellt ist. Das verriegelte Ende 45c bleibt wiederum in der Verlegeebene liegen. Im Unterschied zur Fig. 8 wird das Paneel 46 nun ebenfalls unter dem Schwenkwinkel α zur Verlegeebene schräggestellt und an seiner kurzen Seite 46a in Längsrichtung auf das Halteprofil der kurzen Seite 45a des Paneels 45 aufgeschoben. In dieser Schrägstellung wird der Gelenkvorsprung der langen Seite 46b des Paneel 46 sofort in die Pfannenaussparung der Paneele 42 und 43 der ersten Reihe R1 eingefügt. Schließlich werden die Paneele 45 und 46 gemeinsam in die Verlegeebene geschwenkt und mit den Paneelen der ersten Reihe R1 verriegelt.The alternative of the laying method according to FIG. 9 shows examples for laying panels that are not the subject of claims are. The procedure also provides that the free end 45a around the locked long narrow side 45b from the Laying level swiveled upwards by a swivel angle α with the panel 45 twisted and at the free end 45a is inclined by a swivel angle α to the installation plane. The locked end 45c again remains in the installation plane lie. In contrast to Fig. 8, the panel 46 is now also inclined at the swivel angle α to the installation plane and on its short side 46a in the longitudinal direction on the holding profile the short side 45a of the panel 45 is pushed on. In this oblique position becomes the joint projection of the long side 46b of the panel 46 immediately into the pan recess of the panels 42 and 43 of the first row R1 inserted. Eventually they will Panels 45 and 46 swiveled together into the installation level and interlocked with the panels of the first row R1.

Die nicht dargestellten Alternativen zur Verlegung und Verriegelung von Paneelen bestehen darin, Paneele 45 und 46 zunächst in der Verlegeebene an ihren kurzen Schmalseiten zu verriegeln. Die hier beschriebenen Alternativen werden durch Anschauung der Figuren 8 und 9 verständlich, daher sind auch bezüglich der nicht dargestellten Alternativen Bezugszeichen angegeben.The alternatives for laying and locking, not shown of panels consist of panels 45 and 46 initially lock on the short narrow sides of the installation level. The alternatives described here are shown by looking at the Figures 8 and 9 understandable, therefore, also with regard to the Alternative reference numerals, not shown, are given.

Nach einer der Alternativen werden die Halteprofile der kurzen Schmalseiten 45a und 46a der Paneele 45 und 46 in Längsrichtung ineinandergeschoben, während beide Paneele 45 und 46 in der Verlegeebene liegen bleiben. Nach einer anderen Alternative liegt das Paneel 45 in der Verlegeebene und wird das Paneel 46 unter Schrägstellung zum Paneel 45 an dessen kurze Schmalseite 45a angesetzt und dann in die Verlegeebene geschwenkt.According to one of the alternatives, the holding profiles are the short ones Narrow sides 45a and 46a of the panels 45 and 46 in the longitudinal direction pushed into each other, while both panels 45 and 46 in the Lay the laying level. Another alternative lies the panel 45 in the installation plane and becomes the panel 46 inclined to panel 45 on its short narrow side 45a and then pivoted into the installation level.

Nach den obigen alternativen Verfahrensschritten zur Verriegelung der Paneele 45 und in der Verlegeebene ist das Paneel 46 an seiner langen Seite noch nicht mit den Paneelen 42 und 43 der ersten Reihe R1 verriegelt. Hierzu müssen das Paneel 46 sowie das Paneel 45 an einem Ende 45a in die oben beschriebene Schrägstellung unter dem Schwenkwinkel α angehoben werden. Dann wird der Gelenkvorsprung der langen Seite 46b des Paneel 46 in die Pfannenaussparung der Paneele 42 und 43 der ersten Reihe R1 eingefügt und die Paneele 45 und 46 schließlich gemeinsam durch Schwenken in die Verlegeebene V mit den Paneelen 42 und 43 der ersten Reihe R1 verriegelt. Following the above alternative locking steps of the panels 45 and in the installation plane is the panel 46 on its long side not yet with panels 42 and 43 the first row R1 locked. For this, the panel 46 and panel 45 at one end 45a into that described above Inclination can be raised under the swivel angle α. Then the hinge projection of the long side 46b of the panel 46 in the pan recess of the panels 42 and 43 of the first row R1 inserted and the panels 45 and 46 finally through together Swivel into the installation level V with the panels 42 and 43 of the first row R1 locked.
