Floor panel and floor covering consisting of a plurality of such floor panels
The invention relates to a floor panel, in particular a laminated floor panel. The invention also relates to a floor covering consisting of a plurality of mutually coupled floor panels according to the invention. The invention further relates to a method for mutually coupling two floor panels, in particular laminated floor panels, according to the invention.
1. A floor panel, comprising:
a centrally located core provided with an upper side and a lower side,
at least one first resilient coupling part and second resilient coupling part connected respectively to opposite edges of the core,
which the first resilient coupling part comprises a single upward tongue, at least one upward flank lying at a distance from the upward tongue and a single upward groove formed between the upward tongue and the upward flank,
wherein:
at least a part of a side of the upward tongue facing toward the upward flank extends in the direction of the normal of the upper side of the core, and
at least a part of a side of the upward tongue facing toward the upward flank forms an upward aligning edge for the purpose of coupling the first resilient coupling part to a second resilient coupling part of an adjacent floor panel,
which the second resilient coupling part comprises a single downward tongue, at least one downward flank lying at a distance from the downward tongue, and a single downward groove formed between the downward tongue and the downward flank,
wherein:
at least a part of a side of the downward tongue facing toward the downward flank extends in the direction of the normal of the lower side of the core, and
at least a part of a side of the downward tongue facing away from the downward flank forms a downward aligning edge for the purpose of coupling the second resilient coupling part to a first resilient coupling part of an adjacent floor panel,
wherein the upward groove is adapted to receive at least a part of a downward tongue of an adjacent panel, and wherein the downward groove is adapted to receive at least a part of an upward tongue of an adjacent panel,
wherein said upper side of the upward tongue runs inclining downward in the direction of the side of the upward tongue facing away from the upward flank,
wherein an upper side of the downward groove having a corresponding inclining orientation upward in the direction of the side of the downward tongue facing towards the downward flank, and
wherein a side of the downward tongue facing away from the downward flank is provided with a locking element, and wherein the upward flank is provided with a counter-locking element, said locking element being adapted to cooperate with said counter-locking element of another floor panel.
2. A floor panel, comprising:
a centrally located core provided with an upper side and a lower side,
at least one first coupling part and second coupling part connected respectively to opposite edges of the core,
which the first coupling part comprises a single upward tongue, at least one upward flank lying at a distance from the upward tongue and a single upward groove formed between the upward tongue and the upward flank,
wherein:
at least a part of a side of the upward tongue facing toward the upward flank extends in the direction of the normal of the upper side of the core, and
at least a part of a side of the upward tongue facing toward the upward flank forms an upward aligning edge for the purpose of coupling the first coupling part to a second coupling part of an adjacent floor panel,
which the second coupling part comprises a single downward tongue, at least one downward flank lying at a distance from the downward tongue, and a single downward groove formed between the downward tongue and the downward flank,
wherein:
at least a part of a side of the downward tongue facing toward the downward flank extends in the direction of the normal of the lower side of the core, and
at least a part of a side of the downward tongue facing away from the downward flank forms a downward aligning edge for the purpose of coupling the second coupling part to a first coupling part of an adjacent floor panel,
wherein the upward groove is adapted to receive at least a part of a downward tongue of an adjacent panel, and wherein the downward groove is adapted to receive at least a part of an upward tongue of an adjacent panel, and
wherein a side of the downward tongue facing away from the downward flank is provided with a locking element, and wherein the upward flank is provided with a counter-locking element, said locking element being adapted to cooperate with said counter-locking element of another floor panel.
3. A floor panel, comprising:
a centrally located core provided with an upper side and a lower side,
at least one first resilient coupling part and second resilient coupling part connected respectively to opposite edges of the core,
which the first resilient coupling part comprises a single upward tongue, at least one upward flank lying at a distance from the upward tongue and a single upward groove formed between the upward tongue and the upward flank,
wherein:
a side of the upward tongue facing toward the upward flank includes a first portion and a second portion,
wherein the entire first portion extends from the upward groove to the second portion and extends in the direction of the normal of the upper side of the core, and
wherein the second portion extends from the first portion to a top surface of the upward tongue and forms an upward aligning edge for the purpose of coupling the first resilient coupling part to a second resilient coupling part of an adjacent floor panel,
which the second resilient coupling part comprises a single downward tongue, at least one downward flank lying at a distance from the downward tongue, and a single downward groove formed between the downward tongue and the downward flank,
wherein:
at least a part of a side of the downward tongue facing toward the downward flank extends in the direction of the normal of the lower side of the core, and
at least a part of a side of the downward tongue facing away from the downward flank forms a downward aligning edge for the purpose of coupling the second resilient coupling part to a first resilient coupling part of an adjacent floor panel,
wherein the upward groove is adapted to receive at least a part of a downward tongue of an adjacent panel, and wherein the downward groove is adapted to receive at least a part of an upward tongue of an adjacent panel, and
wherein a part of the upward flank extends in the direction of the normal of the upper side of the core.
