Abstract

The invention relates to a multilayer lining plate for essentially horizontal support surfaces such as floors or floor coverings, comprising a main layer having at least two longer sides and two shorter sides, including at least one part, and a ductile upper decorative layer, wherein the lining plate comprises along an outer edge of each of the longer sides of the main layer a ductile machinable portion that can be machined to form a connecting profile for connection of the lining plate with other plates; wherein the at least one part of the main layer is more rigid than the upper decorative layer; and wherein the at least one part of the main layer is made of magnesium oxide, fibrocement or mortar with perlite and/or vermiculite and/or cellulose.

Claims (51)

1. A multilayer lining plate for essentially horizontal support surfaces such as floors or floor coverings, comprising a main layer having at least two longer sides and two shorter sides, including at least one part, and a ductile upper decorative layer, wherein the lining plate comprises along an outer edge of longer sides of the main layer a ductile machinable portion that can be machined to form a connecting profile for connection of the lining plate with other plates;

wherein the at least one part of the main layer is more rigid than the upper decorative layer; and

wherein the at least one part of the main layer is made of at least one of:

(a) magnesium oxide with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose,

(b) fibrocement with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose, or

(c) mortar with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose; and

wherein the machinable portion is made of medium-density fiberboard, a wood-plastic composite material or polyvinyl chloride.

2. The plate according to claim 1 , wherein the main layer has a thickness measured in the normal direction with respect to the surface of the decorative layer equal to or greater than 2.5 mm.

3. The plate according to claim 1 , wherein the main layer and the machinable portion have a thickness measured in the normal direction with respect to the surface of the decorative layer comprised between 3 mm and 10 mm.

4. The plate according to claim 1 , wherein the main layer is configured by a plurality of individual parts arranged adjacent to and facing one another by at least one respective side face of the plurality of individual parts.

5. The plate according to claim 4 , wherein the individual parts are separated from one another by a strip of compressible or spongy material.

6. The plate according to claim 1 , wherein the plate further comprises a continuous support layer arranged below the main layer and that is flexible relative to the at least one part of the main layer.

7. The plate according to claim 6 , wherein the support layer is of polyvinyl chloride or a wood-plastic composite material.

8. The plate according to claim 1 , wherein the main layer is manufactured by a single part and wherein the plate further comprises a continuous support layer of high-pressure laminate arranged below the main layer.

9. The plate according to claim 7 , wherein the support layer has a thickness equal to or greater than 0.25 mm.

10. The plate according to claim 7 , wherein the support layer has a thickness less than or equal to 5 mm.

11. The plate according to claim 7 , wherein the support layer has a thickness comprised between 0.3 and 1.5 mm.

12. The plate according to claim 1 , wherein the decorative layer is a layer of natural or synthetic plant-based material, mineral-based material, organic material, inorganic material or a mixture thereof.

13. The plate according to claim 1 , wherein the decorative layer is a sheet of vinyl material having a thickness comprised between 1 and 10 mm.

14. The plate according to claim 1 , wherein the outer face of the machinable portion oriented opposite the main layer is formed as a connecting profile for the connection with other plates.

15. A lining plate for flooring, comprising:

a rectangular main layer having two long sides and two short sides and comprising at least one of:

(a) magnesium oxide with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose,

(b) fibrocement with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose, or

(c) mortar with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose;

a ductile upper decorative layer; and

a ductile machinable portion, along an outer edge one of the long sides, made of medium-density fiberboard, a wood-plastic composite material or polyvinyl chloride, and configured to be machined to form a connecting profile for connection of the lining plate with other lining plates;

wherein the main layer is more rigid than the upper decorative layer.

16. A multilayer lining plate for essentially horizontal support surfaces such as floors or floor coverings, comprising a main layer having at least two longer sides and two shorter sides, including at least one part, and a ductile upper decorative layer, wherein the lining plate comprises along an outer edge of longer sides of the main layer a ductile machinable portion that can be machined to form a connecting profile for connection of the lining plate with other plates;

wherein the at least one part of the main layer is more rigid than the upper decorative layer; and

wherein the at least one part of the main layer is made of at least one of:

(a) magnesium oxide with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose,

(b) fibrocement with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose, or

(c) mortar with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose;

wherein the main layer is configured by a plurality of individual parts arranged adjacent to and facing one another by at least one respective side face of the plurality of individual parts.

17. The plate according to claim 16 , wherein the individual parts are separated from one another by a strip of compressible or spongy material.

18. A multilayer lining plate for essentially horizontal support surfaces such as floors or floor coverings, comprising a main layer having at least two longer sides and two shorter sides, including at least one part, and a ductile upper decorative layer, wherein the lining plate comprises along an outer edge of longer sides of the main layer a ductile machinable portion that can be machined to form a connecting profile for connection of the lining plate with other plates;

wherein the at least one part of the main layer is more rigid than the upper decorative layer; and

wherein the at least one part of the main layer is made of at least one of:

(a) magnesium oxide with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose,

(b) fibrocement with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose, or

(c) mortar with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose;

wherein the plate further comprises a continuous support layer arranged below the main layer and that is flexible relative to the at least one part of the main layer; and

wherein the support layer is of polyvinyl chloride or a wood-plastic composite material.

19. A multilayer lining plate for essentially horizontal support surfaces such as floors or floor coverings, comprising a main layer having at least two longer sides and two shorter sides, including at least one part, and a ductile upper decorative layer, wherein the lining plate comprises along an outer edge of longer sides of the main layer a ductile machinable portion that can be machined to form a connecting profile for connection of the lining plate with other plates;

wherein the at least one part of the main layer is more rigid than the upper decorative layer; and

wherein the at least one part of the main layer is made of at least one of:

(a) magnesium oxide with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose,

(b) fibrocement with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose, or

(c) mortar with at least one of perlite, vermiculite or cellulose;
