Abstract:
Floor panel, which, at least at two opposite sides, includes coupling parts with which two of such floor panels can be coupled to each other; wherein these coupling parts form a horizontally active locking system and a vertically active locking system; wherein the horizontally active locking system comprises a male part in the form of a downwardly directed projection and a female part with a seat open towards the top, which have horizontally active locking surfaces; and wherein the vertically active locking system includes a vertically active locking element, which forms part of an insertion piece provided in the female part; wherein the insertion piece is formed at least of the combination of a bottom part; a back part adjoining thereto and an elastically movable lock-up body directed downward with a free extremity, which lock-up body, by means of a hinge portion, is connected directly or indirectly to the back part.
Abstract:
Floor panels (1b, 1c) are shown which are provided with a mechanical locking system comprising a tongue with rocker arms that allows locking by a vertical turning motion.
Abstract:
A floor, wall or ceiling panel comprises a core and a decorative top layer provided on the core. The core comprises a magnesium oxide-based board material, and wherein the aforementioned panel, on at least two opposite edges, is provided with coupling means allowing that two of such panels can be interlocked at the respective edges.

Abstract:
A floor panel has a rectangular and oblong shape, and includes a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate and forming a decorative side of the floor panel. The top layer is composed of a print provided on a carrier sheet and a transparent thermoplastic layer situated above the print. The substrate has a thickness from 2 to 10 millimeter and forms at least half of the thickness of the floor panel. The substrate is a polyurethane-based substrate and the transparent thermoplastic layer is polyurethane-based. The floor panel has a length of more than 1.1 meters and has a plurality of reinforcing layers situated outside the center line of the substrate. A reinforcing layer may be provided in combination with the substrate and the top layer.
Abstract:
A floor panel is arranged for forming a floor covering, and substantially consists of synthetic material and has a decorative upper side. The floor panel, on at least one pair of opposite edges, comprises coupling parts which allow coupling two of such floor panels to each other. The coupling parts effect a locking in a first direction perpendicular to the plane of the floor panels as well as in a second direction perpendicular to the respective edge and in the plane of the floor panels. The at least one of the coupling parts comprises a separate locking element, which, in coupled condition, provides for at least a locking in the first direction.
Abstract:
A method for producing a mechanical locking system for a first panel and a second panel. The method includes providing a tongue, including a first locking surface, at a first edge of the first panel, forming a tongue groove, including a second locking surface, at a second edge of the second panel, the first locking surface and second locking surface are configured to cooperate for locking the first edge to the second edge in a first direction, providing a first guiding surface at the first edge and a second guiding surface at the second edge, wherein the first guiding surface cooperates with the second guiding surface during an assembling of the first edge and the second edge, and working of the first guiding surface and/or the second guiding surface to reduce the coefficient of friction between the first guiding surface and the second guiding surface and/or a surface roughness.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a set of panels (1, 2), in particular floor panels, comprising a first panel (1) and at least one second panel (2), wherein—the panels (1, 2) are respectively provided with a first edge (10) and with a second edge (30);—the first edge (10) and the second edge (30) are configured to establish a connection between the first and the second panels (1, 2);—the first edge (10) comprises a lower lip (11) with a step (12);—the second edge (30) comprises a downwardly open locking groove (31), which in a connected state of the panels (1, 2), or of the edges (10, 30), cooperates with the step (12) and ensures a lock in a horizontal direction;—the connection can be established by a vertical relative movement of the panels (1, 2) with respect to each other; a separate clip (50) is provided which is disposed on the first edge (10) and comprises—a movable clip head (53), which, in a locking position, in the connected state of the panels (1, 2), cooperates with a blocking surface (33) on the second edge (30) in order to lock the panels (1, 2) in a vertical direction, and—a clip base (54) which cooperates with an activating surface (35) of the second edge (30) in order to press the clip head (53) into the locking position during the establishment of the connection. The set is characterized in that the clip (50) comprises a fixed fastening part (51), a flexible connection area (55) and a movable clip portion (52) comprising the clip base (54) and the clip head (53), the fastening area (51) being firmly connected to the first edge (10) and the flexible connection area (55) connecting the fastening part (51) to the movable clip (52).

Abstract:
Building panels, such as floorboards, provided with a mechanical locking system. The mechanical locking system includes a displacement groove at a first edge of a first floorboard and a tongue groove at a second edge of a second floorboard A tongue is arranged in the displacement groove and is configured to cooperate, in a second position, with the tongue groove for vertical locking of the first and the second edge. The tongue includes, in a first position, an inner element and an outer element. The inner element is removable along the displacement groove, and is configured to cooperate with the outer element to obtain a displacement of the outer element towards the tongue groove and thereby obtain the second position. Said inner element and said outer element vertically overlap each other.
