Abstract: Wood flooring is described, which provides resistance to surface liquids by reducing or eliminating checking on the surface of the wood and transmission liquid through the seams in an installed wood floor. This is achieved by combining a surface coating, a wood veneer and core or solid wood, a tongue and groove profile, and application of a sealer along the tongue and groove or locking profile.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a floor panel with a substrate and a top layer of laminate, which floor panel, at one or more edges, is provided with a lower edge region, where the laminate extends in one piece from the actual upper surface of the substrate over the lower edge region at least up to a point. The laminate surface is situated at a level in a horizontal plane which intersects the substrate and that the substrate material, at the location of the lower edge region, has the same or a lower density than at the actual upper surface of the substrate material.

Abstract: Floor panels are shown, which are provided with a mechanical locking system on long and short edges allowing installation with vertical snap folding that could be accomplished automatically without tools and where the short edge locking system has a tongue made in one piece with the panel. The floor panels may have a first and a second connector at the long edges that are configured to obtain a minimum of friction facilitating a displacement, by a spring back force from the bending of a short edge locking strip, of a new panel in a horizontal direction along the long edge during the vertical snap folding action.

Abstract: A method of assembling resilient floorboards is disclosed that includes the step of bending an edge of a floorboard during the assembling. The bending reduces the force required for connection of the edge to another edge of a juxtaposed floorboard. The floorboards may be provided with a mechanical locking system for vertical and horizontal locking of two adjacent floorboards.

Abstract: A connecting device for connecting a first building element and first building panel, the connecting device including at least one primary connecting means extending in a direction along a primary axis and configured to cooperate with a first mechanical locking system of a first edge of the first building element, to obtain an assembled position therewith, preferably by means of a folding displacement of the connecting device about the primary axis, to thereby lock the connecting device from displacement along a secondary axis and a perpendicular tertiary axis each being orthogonal the primary axis. The connecting device includes secondary connecting means extending in a direction along the tertiary axis and configured to cooperate with a second mechanical locking system of respective first and opposite second edges of the first and preferably second building panel, wherein the connecting device further includes tertiary means for cooperating with the first panel.

Abstract: A panel having the shape of a plank or a tile for the production of a floor covering, comprising two pairs of opposed sides defining:



a first two opposed edges for inclined assembly
a second two opposed edges for vertical assembly—the male coupling of the edges for the vertical assembly comprise a male groove extending along the edge and opening onto the lower face of the panel—the female coupling of the edges for the vertical assembly comprise a female groove extending along the edge and opening onto the upper face of the panel—the male coupling of the edges for the vertical assembly comprise a lug or a notch and the female coupling means of the edges for the vertical assembly comprise a complementary notch or lug.
