Abstract

Dilatation means (2) for floors, preferably hard floors consisting of a number of plates, boards, tiles or the like which constitute a flooring unit (1) or are assembled to a flooring unit (1), and one or more flooring units (1) make a floor. A dilatation means (2) is intended to be placed at an end of a flooring unit (1) or between two flooring units (1). The dilatation means (2) includes an anchor profile (3) and a cover profile (4), which cover profile (4) via a base part (5) is mounted in the anchor profile (3). The anchor profile (3) is in its turn being attached to an underlayer (10).

Description

Dilatation means
The present invention relates to a delatation means intended to be placed between flooring units.
Hard floors especially flooring laminates expand and shrink at the influence of heat, humidity and cold respectively. This problem is solved at minor flooring surfaces by leaving a gap between the outer edges of the floor and the surrounding walls. At larger flooring surfaces such gaps have to be placed also in the floor. Otherwise bumps may by formed in the floor or an increase of the the level of parts of the floor can occur. Due to the friction between the floor and the underlayer this might happen even if the distance towards the walls is enough. Especially long corridors can be mentioned where the floor might need to be divided for instance every ten metre so that the flooring units are separated by a gap for one or a few centrimetres. This gap will constitute the range of movement for the flooring units. The gap should be covered since dirt will be collected therein. In addition it is difficult to make the gap aesthetical.
So far this problem has been solved by attaching a T-formed profile in the underlayer by means of screws or nails so that the gap is hidden. Usually these T-profiles have been made of aluminium, wood, particle board or the like.
One problem with this method is that the nails, screws or the like which are used for attaching the profile are not hidden. Moreover, the edges of the T-profile will quickly be destroyed as they are protruding from the floor surface and thereby subjected to abrasion. This is especially evident for an aluminium profile being lacquered or surface treated in another way or a wood profile where the edges are abrased astonishingly quickly.
According to the present invention the above problems have been solved and a dilatation means for floors, has been brought about, preferably for hard floors consisting of a number of plates, boards, tiles or the like which constitute a flooring unit or are assembled to a flooring unit. One or more flooring units make a floor, whereby a dilatation means is intended to be placed at an end of a flooring unit or between two flooring units. The invention is characterized in that the dilatation means comprises an anchor profile and a cover profile. The cover profile is mounted via a base part in the anchor profile which is attached in an underlayer The dilatation means and the flooring units are placed so that a horizontal distance is obtained between the anchor profile and the flooring unit In this way the linear expansion of the floor will be compensated by means of the clearance obtained between the dilatation means and the flooring units. This clearance depends on the length of the flooring units, temperature differences and variations of the air humidity in the room where the floor is situated. Preferably a longitudinal clearance of at least 5 mm and at most 50 mm per flooring unit is allowed.
The cover profile preferably consists of wood, particle board or the like. The upper side is clad with a thin decorative thermosetting laminate with an abrasion resistance measured as inital point, IP > 3000 revolutions, preferably > 6000 revolutions. Thereby, the cover profile can be provided with a pattern matching the surface of the floor. In this way the profile can also get mainly the same abrasion resistance as the floor.
Alternatively the cover profile can be made of compression moulded thermosetting resin such as melamine-formaldehyde resin and furnished with a thermosetting laminate on the upper side as disclosed above. Suitably the compression moulded thermosetting resin is reinforced with glass fibres, carbon fibers or the like, preferably glass fibres.
The anchor profile has got a mainly U-formed cross-section whereby two vertical legs are formed. The legs are preferably resilient and each provided with a downwards and inwards directed edge part. These edge parts are intended to catch the base part of the cover profile. The anchor profile suitably consists of metal, preferably aluminium. In order to keep the resilient properties for a long time a material should be chosen that has good fatigue resistance. Most metals have got such properties but also reinforced polymers such as glass fibre reinforced polyamide or glass fibre reinforced melamine-formaldehyde resin can be used. The anchor profile is attached to the underlayer by means of screws, nails, glue or the like.
The invention is further illustrated by the enclosed figures showing two embodiments of the invention whereby Figure 1 in cross-section shows a dilatation means and parts of two adjoining flooring units 1 and Figure 2 in cross-section shows a dilatation means 2 in the form of a so-called termination strip and one adjoining flooring unit 1 .
Figure 1 shows in cross-section a dilatation means 2 for floors, whereby the dilatation means 2 is intended to be placed between two flooring units 1 The dilatation means comprises and anchor profile 3 and a cover profile 4. The cover profile 4 is mounted by pushing it downwards so that it is secured in the anchor profile 3 which is fixed to an underlayer 10 by means of screws. The anchor profile 3 has got a mainly U-formed cross-section, whereby two upwards directed legs are formed. The legs are each provided with a downwards and inwards directed edge part 7 which edge parts 7 are intended to catch a base part 5 of the cover profile 4. Suitably the upper side of the cover profile is furnished with a thin decorative thermosetting laminate.
Figure 2 shows in cross-section a dilatation means 2 for floors, whereby the dilatations means 2 is intended to be placed in connection to a flooring unit 1 . The dilatation means comprises an anchor profile 3 and a cover profile 4. The cover profile 4 is fixed to the anchor profile 3 which is secured to an underlayer 10 by means of screws The cover profile 4 has a downwards directed part which supports on the underlayer 1 0. The anchor profile 3 has a mainly U-formed cross-section with a downwards and inwards directed edge part 7, which edge parts 7 are intended to catch a base part 5 of the cover profile 4. The upper side of the cover profile 4 is suitably provided with a thin decorative thermosetting laminate.
The invention is not limited to the embodiments shown since these can be modified in different ways within the scope of the invention.
