Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Bauelement zur Bildung eines Bodenbelags, insbesondere in einem Außenbereich, mit einer rechteckigen Belagplatte aus Steinzeug, Glas oder Metall und einer am Plattenrand rahmenartig umlaufenden Anformung aus einem Kunststoffmaterial.The invention relates to a building element for forming a floor covering, in particular in an outdoor area, with a rectangular covering plate made of stoneware, glass or metal and a frame-like formation made of a plastic material around the edge of the plate.

Zur Bildung von Bodenbelägen in Außenbereichen werden bekanntermaßen Platten aus Steinzeug, z.B. aus Beton oder Naturstein, in einem Sand- oder/und Splittbett verlegt. Indem bei der Einbettung Material in Fugen zwischen den Belagplatten eindringt, sind die Belagplatten gegen horizontale Verschiebung weitgehend gesichert.To create floor coverings in outdoor areas, stoneware slabs, such as concrete or natural stone, are laid in a bed of sand and/or gravel. By penetrating the joints between the slabs during embedding, the slabs are largely protected against horizontal displacement.

Aus DE 10 2013 224 478 A1 , WO 2013/000456 A1 , WO 2007/144244 A2 sowie DE 10 2013 106 302 A1 gehen Bauelement der eingangs genannten Art hervor, deren Belagplatte unmittelbar oder mittelbar über eine Zwischenschicht mit einem das Bauelement stabilisierenden Unterbau, insbesondere einer Trägerplatte, verbunden ist.Out of DE 10 2013 224 478 A1 , WO 2013/000456 A1 , WO 2007/144244 A2 as well as DE 10 2013 106 302 A1 arise from building elements of the type mentioned above, the covering plate of which is connected directly or indirectly via an intermediate layer to a substructure stabilising the building element, in particular a carrier plate.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein neues Bauelement der eingangs erwähnten Art zu schaffen, durch das die Bildung von Bodenbelägen bei erhöhter Belagqualität erleichtert ist.The invention is based on the object of creating a new building element of the type mentioned at the outset, by means of which the formation of floor coverings is facilitated with increased covering quality.

Das diese Aufgabe lösende Bauelement nach der Erfindung ist gekennzeichnet, dass die von der Anformung umrahmte Fläche der Unterseite der Belagplatte frei von Anformungen ist oder bis auf einen oder mehrere Angussstränge oder/und von der rahmenartig umlaufenden Anformung nach innen vorstehende Stege frei von Anformung ist.The component according to the invention which achieves this object is characterized in that the surface of the underside of the covering plate which is framed by the formation is free of formations or is free of formations except for one or more sprue strands and/or webs which project inwards from the frame-like circumferential formation.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Anformung aus Kunststoffmaterial kann bei der Verlegung der Bauelemente auf einfache Weise durch Bildung von Stößen zwischen den Anformungen ein sehr gleichmäßiges, ästhetisches Fugenbild erzeugt werden. Indem Anformungen auf den Randbereich der Belagplatte konzentriert sind, kann bei Verlegung der Bauelemente in einem Sand- oder/ und Splittbett die rahmenartige Anformung leichter in das Bett eindringen, was dem Belag stabilen horizontalen Halt verleiht.The inventive molding made of plastic material allows a very uniform, aesthetic joint pattern to be achieved when laying the building elements by simply forming joints between the moldings. By concentrating the moldings on the edge area of the paving slab, the frame-like molding can penetrate more easily into the bed when the building elements are laid in a sand and/or gravel bed, which gives the paving stable horizontal support.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist die rahmenartig umlaufende Anformung unter Anordnung der Belagplatte in einem Werkzeugformraum an die Belagplatte angespritzt oder/und angeschäumt.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the frame-like circumferential molding is injection-molded and/or foamed onto the covering plate while arranging the covering plate in a mold cavity.

Die Belagplatte besteht in einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform aus Feinsteinzeug.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the covering plate is made of porcelain stoneware.

Zweckmäßig umfasst die Anformung einen umlaufend die Plattenrandflächen bedeckenden Belagabschnitt zur Bildung einer halben Fugenfüllung.The shaping advantageously includes a covering section that covers the edge surfaces of the slabs all around to form a half joint filling.

Während durch die Anformung im Belagverbund zwischen den Bauelementen lediglich ein Stoß, insbesondere zwischen den Belagabschnitten, gebildet sein könnte, weist die Anformung vorzugsweise Einrichtungen zur randseitigen Verbindung den Bodenbelag bildender solcher Bauelemente untereinander auf.While the molding in the covering composite between the building elements could only form a joint, in particular between the covering sections, the molding preferably has devices for the edge-side connection of such building elements forming the floor covering to one another.

Insbesondere umfasst die Anformung einen über die Unterseite der Belagplatte hinaus nach unten vorstehenden Abschnitt, wobei die obengenannten Verbindungseinrichtungen vorzugsweise durch diesen Abschnitt der Anformung gebildet sind.In particular, the molding comprises a section projecting downwards beyond the underside of the covering plate, wherein the above-mentioned connecting devices are preferably formed by this section of the molding.

Zweckmäßig umfassen die Verbindungseinrichtungen Elemente zur Steckverbindung in vertikaler oder horizontaler Steckrichtung.The connecting devices advantageously comprise elements for plugging in vertical or horizontal plugging direction.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist der über die Plattenunterseite der Belagplatte vorstehende Abschnitt der Anformung an zwei zueinander senkrechten Randseiten der Belagplatte eine Verbindungsleiste mit Stecklöchern und an den beiden übrigen Randseiten der Belagplatte unter der Belagplatte angeordnete,Steckzapfen auf. Die Stecklöcher und Steckzapfen könnten auch vertauscht angeordnet sein.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the portion of the molding projecting beyond the underside of the covering plate has a connecting strip with plug holes on two mutually perpendicular edges of the covering plate, and plug pins arranged beneath the covering plate on the two remaining edges of the covering plate. The plug holes and plug pins could also be interchanged.

Der über die Unterseite der Belagplatte hinaus vorstehende Abschnitt hat vorzugsweise eine vorstehende Länge von 5 bis 10 mm, insbesondere von 8 mm.The portion projecting beyond the underside of the covering plate preferably has a projecting length of 5 to 10 mm, in particular 8 mm.

Die Dicke der Belagplatte ist zweckmäßig > 10 mm, insbesondere ≥ 20 mm.The thickness of the covering plate is preferably > 10 mm, in particular ≥ 20 mm.

Die Erfindung ist nachfolgend anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen und der beiliegenden, sich auf diese Ausführungsbeispiele beziehenden Zeichnungen weiter erläutert. Es zeigen:

Ein in Fig. 1 in Draufsicht dargestelltes Bauelement zur Bildung eines Bodenbelags, z.B. in einem der Witterung ausgesetzten Außenbereich, umfasst eine Belagplatte 1, die in dem gezeigten Beispiel aus Feinsteinzeug besteht und eine Dicke von 20 mm aufweist. Die Randseitenlänge der quadratischen Belagplatte beträgt 60 cm.One in Fig. 1 A plan view of the building element for forming a floor covering, e.g., in an outdoor area exposed to the weather, comprises a covering slab 1, which in the example shown is made of porcelain stoneware and has a thickness of 20 mm. The edge length of the square covering slab is 60 cm.

Die Belagplatte 1 ist mit einer am Plattenrand rahmenartig umlaufend ausgebildeten Anformung 2 verbunden, die in einem (nicht gezeigten) Formwerkzeug an die Belagplatte 1 angespritzt wurde und in dem gezeigten Beispiel aus Polyurethan (PU) besteht. Im Zuge der Anspritzung und Anschäumung ist zwischen der Belagplatte 1 und der Anformung 2 eine stoffschlüssige Verbindung entstanden.The covering plate 1 is connected to a frame-like molding 2 running around the edge of the plate. This molding was injection-molded onto the covering plate 1 in a mold (not shown) and, in the example shown, is made of polyurethane (PU). During the injection and foaming processes, a material-to-material bond was created between the covering plate 1 and the molding 2.

Wie die Fig. 1 bis 3 erkennen lassen, umfasst die rahmenartig umlaufend ausgebildete Anformung 2 einen Abschnitt 3, welcher über die Unterseite der Belagplatte 1 hinaus nach unten vorsteht, sowie einen Abschnitt 4, der einen um die Randfläche der Belagplatte 1 umlaufenden Belag bildet, dessen Dicke einer halben Fugenbreite entspricht.As the Fig. 1 to 3 As can be seen, the frame-like circumferential formation 2 comprises a section 3 which projects downwards beyond the underside of the covering plate 1, as well as a section 4 which forms a covering surrounding the edge surface of the covering plate 1, the thickness of which corresponds to half the joint width.

Während der den umlaufenden Belag bildende Abschnitt 4 also zur Bildung einer Fugenfüllung dient, sind durch den über die Unterseite der Belagplatte 1 hinaus nach unten vorstehenden Abschnitt 3 Einrichtungen zur Verbindung solcher Bauelemente untereinander gebildet. Als solche Einrichtungen weist der Abschnitt an zwei zueinander senkrechten Randseiten der Belagplatte 1 jeweils einen Rahmenschenkel 10 mit einer über den Plattenrand hinausragenden Verbindungsleiste 5 eine sich in Leistenlängsrichtung erstreckenden Reihe von Stecklöchern 6 auf. An den beiden übrigen zueinander senkrechten Randseiten der Belagplatte 1 sind durch den nach unten vorstehenden Abschnitt 3 Rahmenschenkel 11 mit Steckerzapfen 7 entsprechend den Stecklöchern 6 gebildet.While the section 4 forming the surrounding covering serves to fill the joints, the section 3 projecting downwards beyond the underside of the covering plate 1 forms devices for connecting such building elements to one another. As such devices, the section has a Frame legs 10, with a connecting strip 5 projecting beyond the edge of the panel, have a row of plug holes 6 extending in the longitudinal direction of the strip. On the two remaining mutually perpendicular edge sides of the covering panel 1, frame legs 11 with plug pins 7 corresponding to the plug holes 6 are formed by the downwardly projecting section 3.

An den die Verbindungsleisten 5 aufweisenden Randseiten der Basisplatte 1 weist der durch den Abschnitt 4 gebildete Belag Vertiefungen 8 und an den übrigen Randseiten Ausbuchtungen 9 auf.On the edge sides of the base plate 1 having the connecting strips 5, the covering formed by the section 4 has depressions 8 and on the other edge sides it has bulges 9.

Der über die Unterseite hinaus vorstehende, an jeweils zueinander senkrechten Plattenseiten die Rahmenschenkel 10 und 11 bildende Abschnitt 3 der Anformung 2 liegt beim Verlegen des Bauelements mit einer rahmenartigen, ebenen Unterseite 12 auf einem Unterboden auf.The section 3 of the molding 2, which projects beyond the underside and forms the frame legs 10 and 11 on mutually perpendicular panel sides, rests on a subfloor with a frame-like, flat underside 12 when the building element is laid.

Bei dem Unterboden kann es sich um einen Betonboden handeln. In diesem Fall behält die Belagplatte 1 einen Abstand zum Unterboden, so dass aufliegende Lasten von der Belagplatte allein über die Anformung 2 auf den Unterboden übertragen werden.The subfloor may be a concrete floor. In this case, the covering slab 1 maintains a distance from the subfloor, so that applied loads are transferred from the covering slab to the subfloor solely via the formation 2.

Alternativ kann der Unterboden eine Sand- oder/und Splittschicht aufweisen. In eine unverdichte oberste Schicht aus Sand oder Splitt sinkt das Bauelement mit dem vorstehenden Abschnitt 3 der Anformung 2 leicht ein, bis auch die Belagplatte 1 auf der obersten Schicht zur Auflage kommt. Lasten werden so nicht nur über die Anformung 2 sondern auch unmittelbar von der Belagplatte 1 auf den Unterboden übertragen.Alternatively, the subsoil can have a layer of sand and/or gravel. The structural element sinks slightly into an uncompacted upper layer of sand or gravel with the protruding section 3 of the formed portion 2 until the covering slab 1 also rests on the upper layer. Loads are thus transferred not only via the formed portion 2 but also directly from the covering slab 1 to the subsoil.

Zur Bildung eines Bodenbelags werden die Bauelemente randseitig vertikal miteinander verhakt, wobei die Steckerzapfen 7 in die Stecklöcher 2 unter Herstellung einer kraftschlüssigen Verbindung eindringen. Es versteht sich, dass über die Stecklöcher und -zapfen zusätzlich eine formschlüssige Rastverbindung hergestellt sein kann. Diese Verbindung zwischen den Bauelementen verleiht dem gebildeten Bodenbelag eine hohe Stabilität.To form a floor covering, the components are vertically interlocked at the edges, with the plug pins 7 penetrating the plug holes 2, creating a force-locking connection. It is understood that a positive locking connection can also be created via the plug holes and pins. This connection between the components imparts high stability to the resulting floor covering.

Im Verbund bildet der Abschnitt 4 der Anformung 2 jedes Bauelements eine halbe Fugenfüllung. Indem die Abschnitte 4 benachbarter Bauelemente unmittelbar aneinander anliegen, ergibt sich ein gleichmäßiges Fugenbild. Die Vertiefungen 8 und Ausbuchtungen 9 schützen die Bauelemente des Belags vor vertikalem Versatz.When combined, section 4 of the projection 2 of each component forms half of the joint filler. Since the sections 4 of adjacent components are in direct contact with each other, a uniform joint pattern is achieved. The recesses 8 and bulges 9 protect the structural elements of the decking from vertical displacement.

Bei dem in Fig. 1 bis 3 gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel ist eine Angussstelle (nicht gezeigt) unmittelbar an der rahmenartigen Anformung 2 gebildet. Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel von Fig. 4 ist eine Angussstelle 13 von der rahmenartigen Anformung 2 entfernt angeordnet. Von der Angussstelle 13 erstreckt sich ein mit der Belagplatte 1 verbundener Angussstrang 14 zu dem die Stecklöcher 6 in der Verbindungsleiste 5 aufweisenden Rahmenteil 10.In the Fig. 1 to 3 In the embodiment shown, a gate (not shown) is formed directly on the frame-like formation 2. In the embodiment of Fig. 4 A sprue point 13 is arranged at a distance from the frame-like formation 2. From the sprue point 13, a sprue strand 14 connected to the covering plate 1 extends to the frame part 10 having the plug holes 6 in the connecting strip 5.

Ferner abweichend von dem Ausführungsbeispiel von Fig. 1 bis 3 weist die Anformung 2 in den Eckenbereichen jeweils eine Aufweitung 15 auf, welche vorteilhaft die Flächenpressung in den Eckenbereichen herabsetzt.Furthermore, deviating from the embodiment of Fig. 1 to 3 the formation 2 has a widening 15 in each of the corner areas, which advantageously reduces the surface pressure in the corner areas.

Bei einem in den Figuren 5 bis 7 gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel sind an eine Belagplatte 1 und eine rahmenartige Anformung 2 ferner Stege 16 angeformt, die sich von einander gegenüberliegenden Rahmenschenkeln der Anformung 2 nach innen erstrecken und jeweils frei enden. Die Breite der in dem betreffenden Beispiel zueinander ausgerichteten Stege 16 ist deutlich geringer als die breite der Rahmenschenkel. In ihrer von der Belagplatte 1 vorstehenden Höhe stimmen in dem Beispiel die Stege 16 mit der Anformung 2 überein. Mit 14 ist ein zu den Stegen 16 senkrechter Angusssteg bezeichnet.In the case of a Figures 5 to 7 In the exemplary embodiment shown, webs 16 are further formed onto a covering plate 1 and a frame-like projection 2, which webs extend inward from opposing frame legs of the projection 2 and each end freely. The width of the webs 16, which are aligned with one another in the example in question, is significantly less than the width of the frame legs. In the example, the height of the webs 16 projecting from the covering plate 1 corresponds to the projection 2. Reference numeral 14 designates a sprue web perpendicular to the webs 16.

Vorteilhaft wirken die Stege, insbesondere auf losem Untergrund, einer horizontalen Verschiebung der Bauelemente entgegen.The webs advantageously counteract horizontal displacement of the building elements, especially on loose ground.
