Abstract (en)

[origin: DE20321446U1] The floor panel (2), of high density (HDF) or medium density (MDF) fiberboard or oriented strand board (OSB), can have a patterning layer on its upper surface (15), and a lower surface (7) against the ground. The edges are structured so that at least two panels can be locked together in the lateral (Q) and vertical (V) directions. The edges are shaped with positive fit structures (23,24) at one side edge with spaced vertical walls (21,22), displaced laterally and vertically to lock neighboring panels in the vertical direction. At the other side, a step (20) is cut out from the under side, with an inner (21) and an outer (22) wall to shape the positive fit structures. At the opposite edge, a projecting step (200) is cut out with an inner (210) and an outer (220) wall, in a matching shape to the positive fit structures.
