Wooden floor coverings such as parquet or similar

The invention relates to a wooden floor covering, such as parquet or the like, with colored, decorative pattern decorations.

It is known that parquet floors can have colored lines and shapes by using different types of wood and laying methods. A wooden floor designed in this way is unchangeable with its permanent pattern, but also expensive to purchase. Such patterned parquet floors (inlay work) are only used in very elaborate buildings.

The invention is based on the task of creating wooden floor coverings such as parquet floors or similar with durable and decorative color patterns. However, the user should be given the opportunity to adapt this pattern to his taste if necessary. It should be able to be extended, renewed or even removed with little effort.

The paint application practiced up to that point on wooden floors was used, for example, to mark playing fields, but was only functional and not very durable.

Special measures are required for the application of decorative color patterns in order to ensure their long-term durability. This object is achieved according to the invention in that a permanent color pattern based on varnish is applied to a raw or sanded and possibly filled wooden base on one or more sealing layers, which is protected by a transparent top coat. According to another embodiment, a decorative color pattern layer is applied to the finely sanded raw wooden base, on which one or more sealing layers are rolled up and finally carry a protective layer of transparent top coat.

Special measures are therefore required for the application of decorative colour patterns in order to ensure their long-term durability. This task is solved according to the invention by applying the coloured lacquer patterns to a wooden surface prepared by sanding and filling, if necessary using auxiliary stencils. The decorative pattern is preferably applied as the bottom layer, i.e. to the prepared wood, and then the surface is treated several times with transparent lacquer sealants, thus making it durable and hard-wearing. The wooden floor is given a particularly sophisticated and elegant appearance by the coloured edge pattern in harmony with the wood tone.

According to another embodiment, the prepared wooden surface is treated several times with sealing varnish; the smooth surfaces are achieved by fine intermediate sanding of the varnish. A colored varnish pattern is applied to the pre-varnished wooden surface, which has a final transparent varnish layer to protect it. In this variant, the color pattern is between the protective sealing layers in the upper area and is also easier to remove if necessary.

The invention and further details are explained below using the figures as an example. The material layers applied to the floor are shown schematically.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in Fig.l of the drawing.

Fig.2 shows another embodiment of the invention. Further modifications of the embodiments of the invention are contained in the following description.

In Fig.l, 1 indicates the wooden base of a parquet floor, the surface of which was completely filled with joint filler solution after coarse and medium sanding and then finely sanded.

The first transparent paint layer 3 (base coat) is spread over the pre-treated surface 2. The water-dilutable paints are low in pollutants and are used as 2-component paints (for high levels of use in commercial areas) or as 1-component paints (normal use in private areas). The next paint layer 4 and paint layer 5 are rolled on one after the other. In between, the paint is sanded finely, which is needed for the paint bond and also for a smooth surface.

A decorative decoration 6 is applied to the pre-sanded (intermediate sanding) lacquer surface using an auxiliary template and specially colored lacquers. The whole thing now has a final full-surface lacquer layer 7 to protect the surface and the colored pattern against abrasion.

If no heavy wear and tear is expected, 1-component paints are used as described above. Likewise, paint layer 5 can be omitted. This variant provides sufficient protection for the surface under normal use.

Fig.2 shows the other embodiment of the invention.

A decorative decoration 6a is applied to the pre-painted wooden surface on the wooden base la and the prepared wooden surface 2a using an auxiliary template and specially colored varnishes. For heavy use, three further full-surface varnish layers 3a, 4a, 5a are provided on the color sample 6a, each of which was applied after intermediate varnish sanding. The top varnish layer is again a top varnish 7a, which protects the surface against abrasion.

If no heavy loads are expected, 1-component paints are used as described. The paint layer 5a can also be omitted.

In the case of prefinished parquet or factory-finished or pre-painted wooden surfaces, the decorative color design is applied to the top layer of varnish. The laid or installed surfaces are given an intermediate varnish sanding, onto which the color samples are applied using auxiliary stencils. The specially colored varnishes are adjusted to the existing varnish system (water-, acrylic- or solvent-based varnishes) to ensure adhesion to the pre-painted surface. Finally, a top layer of varnish is applied to protect the surface.

If you want the decorative design with the colored varnish to be easy to remove or change, it is advisable to omit the last protective top coat. The colored layer can then be removed by lightly sanding and the floor or the wooden surface is then returned to its original state. The surface is permanently protected again by painting it over once or several times.
