The present invention relates to a panel and to a floor covering including the same. The present invention also relates to other coverings, such as a wall covering, which are constructed by using a plurality of the panels. According to the invention, the panel includes a first and second coupling profile on opposing sides of the panel. The first coupling profile includes an upward tongue that has a curved portion. This upward tongue is spaced apart from a first inner flank of the panel by a clearance that defines an upward groove. According to the invention, an outermost point of the curved portion is positioned further away from the first inner flank than a center point of the upward tongue.

Panel and floor covering comprising the same

The present invention relates to a panel and to a covering including a plurality of such panels. The present invention particularly relates to floor panels, and more in particular to laminated floor panels, hardwood floor panels, solid wood floor panels, or PVC based floor panels. The invention proposes a coupling of the tongues of different adjacent panels that are arranged on the short side of those panels by a tongue of a further panel that is arranged on the long side of that panel. Compared to prior art panels, an improved coupling between the short sides of adjacent panels can be achieved, reducing the likelihood that these panels become detached.

Panel and covering comprising the same

The present invention relates to a floor panel and to a floor. The floor panel according to the invention includes a core provided with an upper and lower surface, and a first and second core flank at a first and second side of the core, respectively. The floor panel includes a first coupling part and a second coupling part provided at the first side and the second side of the core, respectively. Each of the coupling parts includes an inner side flank, an outer side flank, and an upper portion flank connecting the inner side flank to the outer side flank. According to the invention, a portion of the first core flank and an upper portion of the outer side flank of the second coupling part are inclined such that when the floor panel is coupled to an adjacently arranged further floor panel these upper portions lie against each other for the purpose of providing a locking in a vertical direction. In addition, a first upper portion flank of the tongue of the first coupling part includes a curved recess and the groove of the second coupling part may include a bulge complimentary to the curved recess.

Floor panel and floor

A panel configured to be used for constructing a floor covering that includes a plurality of such panels. A combination of locking elements is used on the flanks of the coupling profiles on the sides of the panel that provides for replacing the well-known tongue and groove coupling.

Flooring panel and a floor covering with such panel

A floor panel and a floor covering including a plurality of such floor panels, and more particularly, a laminated floor panel. The floor panel includes a hook that protrudes from an upward tongue of one floor panel to engage a clearance between an upward tongue block and an upward tongue of an adjacent floor panel.

Floor panel and floor covering

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.

Floor panel and floor covering consisting of a plurality of such floor panels
