Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a modular system for cladding wall surfaces, particularly, but not exclusively, in the interiors of buildings. State of the art
[0002] Common wall cladding and paneling systems regularly require individual elements to be adjusted to the specific wall dimensions. Particularly when there are deviations in the dimensions of wall surfaces, room edges, or corners, sawing, special tools, and craftsmanship are necessary. This complicates installation, increases the time required, and introduces potential errors, especially when installed by inexperienced individuals.
[0003] Furthermore, known systems are often unable to reliably compensate for structural tolerances or wall dimension deviations without visible joints or additional rework. Object of the invention
[0004] The invention is based on the objective of providing a wall paneling system that enables simple, quick and form-fitting assembly without cutting or sawing work and can reliably compensate for wall dimension deviations. Solution to the task
[0005] This problem is solved by the features in claim 1.
[0006] The wall paneling system includes several wall paneling panels, connectors, inside corner pieces, outside corner pieces, and baseboards. An optional top trim strip is also available.
[0007] All components feature integrated, pluggable and form-fitting geometric connection systems that interact with each other in a form-fitting manner.
[0008] The complementary design of the connection systems allows the individual components to be directly connected by simply slotting them together, creating a stable and load-bearing connection. No cutting, sawing, or gluing is required.
[0009] To compensate for deviations in wall dimensions, a geometric length compensation is provided, which is realized through the design of the form-fitting connection systems in the wall paneling infills, the connecting elements and the inside and outside corner elements.
[0010] The inside and outside corner elements enable continuous, form-fitting installation of the wall paneling infills across inside and outside corners.
[0011] The wall paneling panels are custom-made according to the respective room dimensions, so that they are provided ready for installation by the end customer and installation is possible without on-site cutting or adjustment work.
[0012] The components can be attached to a wall surface using adhesive and / or mechanical fasteners. Example of implementation
[0013] An embodiment of the invention is described by reference to the Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3, Fig. 4 to Fig. 5 explained. It shows: Fig. 1 the wall paneling system in its assembled state, Fig. 2 a perspective view of mounted wall paneling panels (1) which are positively connected to each other by means of a connecting element (2), Fig. 3 a perspective view of mounted wall paneling (1) which are connected to each other by means of an inside corner (4) via an inside corner of the room- Fig. 4 a perspective view of mounted wall paneling panels (1) which are connected to each other via an external corner (5) in a form-fitting manner over an internal room corner. Fig. 5 a side view of the wall paneling system with a baseboard (3) for receiving the components via a positive locking connection.
[0014] According to Fig. 1 comprises the wall paneling system wall paneling infills (1), connecting elements (2), a skirting board (3), an inside corner element (4) and an outside corner element (5).
[0015] In the assembled arrangement according to Fig. 2 The wall paneling infills (1) have first geometrically integrated connection systems (6) which interact positively with corresponding second geometrically integrated connection systems (7) of the connecting elements (2) so that a stable connection is created.
[0016] In the area of an inside corner according to Fig. 3 the geometric connection systems (6) of the wall paneling fillings (1) interact with a corresponding connection system (7) of the inside corner element (4).
[0017] In the area of an outside corner according to Fig. 4 The geometric connecting elements (6) of the wall paneling fillings (1) interact with a corresponding connecting system (7) of the outer corner element (5).
[0018] Fig.Figure 5 shows the baseboard (3), which is designed to provide a form-fitting connection for the wall paneling infills (1), the connecting elements (2) and the internal and external corner elements (4, 5) and has a geometric connecting element (6).
