The disclosure relates to a set of panels, such as building panels, comprising a first panel and a second panel and a locking device for locking a first edge portion of the first panel to a second edge portion of the second panel. The locking device includes a vertical locking device. The vertical locking device comprises a flexible tongue arranged in an insertion groove of one of said first edge portion and said second edge portion. The vertical locking device also comprises a tongue groove provided in and extending along the other of said one of said first edge portion and said second edge portion. In a vertically locked state of the first and second edge portions a flexible portion of the flexible tongue cooperates with tongue groove. In the vertically locked state of the first and second edge portions a longitudinal end portion of the flexible tongue cooperates with a stop surface on the other of said one of said first edge portion and said second edge portion.

Set of panels comprising a locking device

A set of panels includes first and second panels and a mechanical locking device for assembly by vertical relative displacement of the panels. A locking strip extends from a first edge of the first panel in a direction parallel to first and second panel surfaces of the first panel. The locking strip includes a locking strip edge, and first and second locking strip surfaces respectively extending in directions substantially corresponding to those of the first and second panel surfaces. A locking element of the locking strip cooperates with a locking groove at the second edge of the second panel for locking in a direction parallel to the first panel surface. Opposite edges respectively include cooperating tongue and tongue groove for vertical locking. A flexing groove extends from a first locking strip surface/first edge transition and into the first panel at an angle α from the first panel surface.

Panel with locking device

Building panels, such as a floor panels or wall panels. The panels including a first mechanical locking system at respective parallel and opposite third and fourth edges, such as long edges, configured to cooperate for horizontal and vertical locking between two adjacent building panels, preferably by means of a folding motion. The panels further including a second locking system at respective parallel and opposite first and second edges, such as short edges, configured to cooperate for horizontal and vertical locking of two adjacent building panels. An upper edge portion of one of the third edge or fourth edge, preferably the third edge, includes a first lower lip portion configured to cooperate with a first upper lip portion of an upper edge portion of the other of the third and fourth edge of an adjacent panel when the third and fourth edges are arranged in locking engagement.

Building panel

A set of essentially identical panels, such as building panels, provided with a mechanical locking system including a displaceable tongue arranged in a displacement groove having a first opening at a first edge of a first panel. The tongue is configured to be displaced in the displacement groove along a displacement axis to attain a locking state wherein a first portion of the tongue cooperates with a first tongue groove having a second opening at a second edge of an adjacent second panel, for vertical locking of the first and the second edge. A second portion of the tongue is configured to cooperate with the second edge of the adjacent second panel via an elongated element for vertical unlocking of the first and the second edge.

Unlocking system for panels

Building panels, such as a floor panels or wall panels, which include a first mechanical locking system at respective parallel and opposite third and fourth edges, such as long edges, configured to cooperate for horizontal and vertical locking between two adjacent building panels, preferably by a folding motion. The panels further include a second locking system at respective parallel and opposite first and second edges, such as short edges, configured to cooperate for horizontal and vertical locking of two adjacent building panels. An upper edge portion of one of the third edge or fourth edge, preferably the third edge, includes a first lower lip portion configured to cooperate with a first upper lip portion of an upper edge portion of the other of the third and fourth edge of an adjacent panel when the third and fourth edges are arranged in locking engagement.

Building panels, such as a floor or wall panels. The panels include a first mechanical locking system include a first locking strip at one of the third edge or fourth edge configured to cooperate for horizontal locking with a first locking groove at the other of the third or fourth edge of an adjacent building panel, preferably by means of a folding motion, and a second locking system including a second locking strip at one of the first edge or second edge, configured to cooperate for horizontal locking with a second locking groove at the other of the first or second edge of an adjacent building panel. The thickness of the second locking strip, in a thickness-direction of the building panel, exceeds the thickness of the first locking strip.

A set of panels including first and second panels. The first and second panels respectively include first and second edges. The first edge includes a locking strip with a locking element configured to cooperate with a locking groove at the second edge for locking the first edge to the second edge. The locking element includes a first locking surface at a first angle from a plane parallel to the first panel surface and the locking groove includes a second locking surface at a second angle from a plane parallel to the third panel surface. The first angle is different from the second angle such that the first locking surface converges towards the second locking surface at a cooperation part in a locked position. The first locking surface cooperates with the second locking surface at the cooperation part.

Set of panels

A set of essentially identical subfloor panels including a joint configured to be glued, wherein the joint includes an element at a strip which protrudes from a first joint edge at an edge of a panel and an element groove at an adjacent edge. The joint includes a flexible tongue which is configured to cooperate, in the joined position, with a tongue groove for positioning of the panel relative the adjacent panel in a first vertical direction. The joint is configured for a joining of the edge and the adjacent edge by a vertical motion of the edge relative the adjacent edge. A space above the strip and between the element and the first joint edge is configured to be filled partly or completely with a glue before the edge and the adjacent edge are joined.

Subfloor joint

A set including a coupling element, a first building element, a first building panel and a second building panel, wherein the coupling element is configured for assembling the first building panel and the second building panel to the first building element, wherein the coupling element includes a primary coupling portion configured to cooperate with a first mechanical locking system of a first edge of the first building element to thereby lock the coupling element from displacement along a secondary axis and a perpendicular tertiary axis each being orthogonal the primary axis; wherein the coupling element includes a secondary coupling portion extending in a direction along the tertiary axis and configured to cooperate with a second mechanical locking system of the second building panels, wherein the second locking system is configured for locking the first and second panels by a folding displacement of the second panel about its second edge.

Set for assembling building elements and coupling element therefore

A set of panels each including a main surface, a first edge, an opposite second edge, a third edge which is adjacent to the first edge and a fourth edge which is opposite to the third edge. The set includes a mechanical locking device which is configured to lock the first edge to the second edge. The locking device includes a flexible tongue. The flexible tongue includes a central part configured to cooperate with a tongue groove for locking. A first edge part and the tongue groove are configured such that when in the locked position a force P′ is applied adjacent the first edge and the third edge of the first panel and another force P is applied adjacent the second edge and the third edge of the second panel, the first edge part is pushed towards a bottom surface of an insertion groove which allows a disassembling.

Building panel with a mechanical locking system
