Abstract (en)

The system (12) has structure plates (10) arranged in series on a thin PVC base. Structures e.g. grooves (18) or strip-like projections (16), on the structure plates are sensed with a blind stick. A coupling system comprises plugs (22) and a socket for detachably coupling the structure plates. The structure plates are detachably fastened at the base. A liquid outlet is formed by the structure plates, which are formed as attention fields. A plastic plate and/or a carpet mat (14) are provided as a substrate for the structure plates. The structure plates are made from metal. The attention fields are intersections.
