Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a floor construction and in particular a floor construction having improved sound deadening or attenuating characteristics.
  • the invention is particularly applicable for use on sub floors of masonary, steel or timber such as screeds, concrete sub floors or Trosted sub floors in a timber frame construction.
  • United Kingdom Patent Publication No. GB 2196356 teaches a floor construction wherein on the underside of each timber batten is an open celled resiliently compliant polyether material.
  • United Kingdom Patent Publication No. GB 2214537 teaches a floor construction wherein the underside of each batten has bonded thereto an open cell foam strip with a vertical deflection in the range of 4mm to 24mm under a static compressive load of 8000 Pa.
  • United Kingdom Patent Publication No. GB 2316694 teaches of the use of battens or board which have on their underside a bonded laminate comprising one layer of a resiliently flexible polyethylene material of which the cells are closed and another of an extruded randomly orientated polyester fibre.
  • the present invention provides a floor construction comprising a support structure for the floating support of flooring panels to which are fixedly attached battens, each batten having on at least one horizontal surface thereof a single layer of non-woven fibre material wherein a substantial portion of the fibres of said non-woven fibre material are orientated in the vertical plane.
  • the present invention provides a deck type flooring construction comprising a support structure for the floating support of floor panels, the underside of said floor panels having a single layer of non-woven fibre material wherein a substantial portion of the fibres of said non-woven fibre material are orientated in the vertical plane.
  • the vertical orientation of the fibres within the fibre layer allows for air contained within the interstices of the fibres to be expelled under dynamic load, and for the fibres to bend and deflect under dynamic loading.
  • the position of the fibres in the vertical plane rather than the horizontal plane enhances the performance of the material in flooring constructions which are subjected to a compressive loading cycle.
  • battens and the flooring panels will be known to those skilled in the art and will include materials such as plywood, softwood and hardwood timber; oriented strand board (OSB), chipboard, hardboard and MDF (medium density fibreboard).
  • OSB oriented strand board
  • MDF medium density fibreboard
  • the underside of the batten (or the flooring panel) that is faced with the non-woven fibre material, although alternatively the upper horizontal surface of the batten may be faced with the material.
  • the upper horizontal surface of the batten may be faced with the material.
  • other surfaces in a flooring construction may be faced with an additional layer of the material.
  • a floor construction is shown in Fig. 1 and comprises a support structure 2, for example a concrete slab or floor or Trosted floor, onto which is positioned flooring panels 4 supported on battens 6.
  • the flooring panels 4 comprise timber floorboards or lengths of chipboard or MDF or the like fixed to the timber battens 6 by screws or nails (not shown).
  • the battens 6 have on their underside horizontal surface 7 a layer of non-woven fibre material 8 wherein a substantial portion of the fibres therein are orientated predominantly in the vertical plane.
  • the non-woven material 8 is bonded or otherwise secured, e.g. by adhesive, to the batten 6.
  • Fig. 2 shows a second arrangement of floor construction 10, comprising a floor panel 12, sometimes referred to as a deck, to which is bonded or otherwise secured e.g. by adhesive 9 single layer of non-woven material 14.
  • the flooring panel 12 and the layer of non-woven material 14 on its underside is positioned above a support structure 16, in this case a concrete slab floor 16.
  • non-woven material is a thermally bonded non-woven polymer material such as that manufactured by Ledatec of Blackburn, England which is sold under the CRIMPTEC Trade Mark. This material is available in thicknesses of from 10mm to 40mm, weights of from 100gm/m 2 to 1900gm/m 2 .
  • the non-woven fibre may be laminated to other lightweight materials for improved handling.
