Abstract: An interlockable panel for forming a generally planar surface. Each panel includes a first surface positioned substantially in a plane and a second surface facing opposite the first surface and substantially parallel to and displaced from the first surface. Each surface has a perimeter defined by edges extending between the first and second surfaces. The edges may include male or female edges. Each male edge includes a tongue that extends outwardly from the male edge and a longitudinally extending void that extends inwardly of the tongue. Each female edge includes a groove having a protrusion position within the groove and extending outwardly from the groove generally parallel to the first surface. An adjacent panel may be linked to a fixed panel such that the tongue engages the groove and the protrusion engages the void. The invention also includes a method for assembling a generally planar surface using interlockable panels such as the above-mentioned. The method generally includes the steps of placing the first surfaces of adjacent panels within a common plane, and manually linking of the male edge of the first panel with the female edge of a second panel, by relatively moving the panels towards each other while maintaining said panels in a common plane.

Abstract translation: 一种用于形成大致平坦表面的互锁面板。 每个面板包括基本上位于平面中的第一表面和与第一表面相对的第二表面，并且基本上平行于第一表面并从第一表面移位。 每个表面具有由在第一和第二表面之间延伸的边缘限定的周界。 边缘可以包括阳或阴边缘。 每个阳边包括从阳边缘向外延伸的舌部和从舌部向内延伸的纵向延伸的空隙。 每个阴边缘包括在凹槽内具有突出位置并且从大致平行于第一表面的凹槽向外延伸的凹槽。 相邻的面板可以连接到固定面板，使得舌接合凹槽，并且凸起接合空隙。 本发明还包括使用诸如上述的可互锁面板组装大体上平面的表面的方法。 该方法通常包括以下步骤：将相邻面板的第一表面放置在共同的平面内，并且通过相对地将面板朝向彼此移动，同时将第一面板的阳边缘与第二面板的阴边缘手动连接，同时保持所述 面板在一个共同的平面。

Abstract: Flooring panels can have a variety of widths. In one embodiment, panels or boards of different widths are packaged together to give the installer a great deal of flexibility in constructing the floor in order to achieve a realistic looking surface. In another embodiment, the panels have locking joints which allow the panels to be maintained in an installed condition until a pre-applied glue is allowed to set.

Abstract: The stairtread has the aesthetic appearance of a solid hardwood stairtread and presents a structural stability comparable to that of hardwood treads, but comprises a core layer made of lamellas of lower quality material glued laterally adjacent to each other. On the top surface of the core layer are glued laterally adjacent to each other top lamellas of higher quality wood. Underneath lamellas made of higher quality wood may also be glued laterally adjacent to each other on the bottom surface of the core layer to form a tread of which the underside is made of higher quality wood covering the lower quality core. Finally an elongate nose member is applied and glued to a longitudinal edge surface of the core layer. Use of lower quality material such as low quality wood helps to preserve our natural resources and to reduce consumption of higher quality wood material becoming every day more rare and difficult to obtain.
