Abstract

Floor element, especially applicable in building entrance and exit areas, formed by a plurality of interacting with each other Hollow profiles (2) whose non-visible profile areas (8) for receiving and management of power and / or data lines (9) and If necessary, electronic components (7, 7 ') are provided and the in the visible profile area (1 ') at least lighting (6, 6') and / or monitoring means (5, 6 '') record.

Description

The Innovation relates to a floor element, in particular usable in building and exit areas.

Generally It is known to integrate bulbs in floors (eg in airplanes), so that in emergencies the passengers the way to the exits is pointed out.

The DE 600 16 658 discloses a doormat with footswitch. The mat includes a plurality of pressure switches for detecting a footfall, given a specified number of partitions of the plurality of pressure switches.

By the DE 200 23 513 U1 is a floor covering with a modifiable electronic display assigned to him known, with dynamic images can be displayed on the electronic display.

In the DE 200 22 618 U1 For example, there is described a doormat having a tacky portion, a tacky exposed upper surface intended to contact a person's soles, and an anti-slip component intended to be in contact with a person's soles come, wherein the anti-slip component is associated with the sticky portion to prevent slipping on the sticky portion when it is wet.

The DE 199 03 593 A1 relates to an automatic teller machine, comprising an input unit for actuating a function operation of the teller machine by a customer and a security device for monitoring the teller machine. The ATM has a detector device which monitors a residence or operating area in front of the ATM and detects the presence of a customer in the location area when operating the input unit. The sequence of a functional operation is interrupted by an interruption circuit when the detector device detects that the customer has left the occupied area.

aim of the novelty object it is, a replaceable simply building up To further develop floor element, a variety of safety aspects is enough and has a wide scope.

The The aim is achieved by a floor element, in particular applicable in building entrance and exit areas, formed by one Variety of interconnected hollow profiles, their non-visible profile areas for recording and guidance of power and data lines and, if necessary, electronic components are provided, and in the visible profile area at least lighting and / or monitor.

advantageous Further developments of the subject invention are the dependent claims refer to.

The according to the invention floor element can be at different Positions are provided.

Under consideration of DE 199 03 593 For example, the floor element can be provided in the area of each bank machine. Contrary to this prior art, a person who accesses the ATM in an unauthorized manner is thus taken in from below, so that aids, such as visors or the like, which prevent a view from above, can also be recognized by the unauthorized person ,

From particular advantage is the renewal of the floor element in building entrance and exit areas. In particular, shops, gas stations or other public buildings exposed to the public at. On the one hand, there is the possibility of the renewal Floor element to be considered as a security element, as with the therein integrated bulbs diverse emblems, displays or the like can be generated, thus as emergency exit lighting to act.

About that In addition, the renewal proper floor element, for example be used to protect against burglary attempts, if there are sensors and / or other electronic components are integrated.

By the integration of the power or data carrying lines within the hollow profile (s) and the integration of the bulbs and / or sensors and / or cameras within the hollow sections can considerable costs in the planning as well as in the executions the required functions in the respective surveillance area be saved.

Furthermore, the integrated bulbs can be used for commercial purposes due to different colors when not in use as emergency exit lighting. The commercial benefit can be used, for example, in boutiques or retail outlets to visually influence the customer to enter the respective store. This optical influence can be designed, for example, in the design of an arrow. This arrow then shows the customer the way into the business. In an emergency then the arrow or other arrangements of the bulbs are reversed to the path of the output. This flexible control of the lighting means is brought about by an on-demand or in the bottom element integrated or externally arranged electronics. The control of the bulbs can be inexpensively integrated into the respective construction floor elements during retrofitting.

As already mentioned, the floor element can be used on a wide range of different types Make a floor positioned to the respective one Use case to meet. The use of lighting and / or monitoring equipment is made dependent on the respective application.

is the bottom element as a stripping element, for example as a floor mat construction formed, the hollow profiles within a usually existing bottom receiving opening interchangeable be positioned. Thus, there is the possibility already existing floor mat constructions by the renewal To replace doormat.

The For example, integrated into the floor mat construction Sensors / electronic components, are for monitoring a building entrance or exit area thought. For example These may be miniature cameras or motion sensors. As a result of the integration of the respective components in the floor element can with a cost-effective design, for example a burglary prevented or timely by a given alert a further procedure of unauthorized access is prevented.

For the cleaning of the floor element, in particular the doormat, can with externally mounted electronics by means of plug connections the floor element, respectively the doormat, unhindered be raised.

Of the Innovation object is based on an embodiment shown in the drawing and is described as follows. It demonstrate:

1 Schematic diagram of a renewal according to the invention soil element;

2 Alternative of a floor element according to 1 ;

3 exemplary representation of hollow profiles for a floor element in a perspective view.

1 shows in plan view a bottom element 1 which in this example should be located in the entrance / exit area of a public building. The floor element 1 is made of a variety of hinged together (not shown) hollow sections 2 produced, which should be formed in this example by aluminum extrusions. In 3 such profiles are shown in more detail. The floor element 1 should be designed in this example as a doormat and includes in the visible profile area 1' only indicated Fußabstreifleisten 3 as well as anti-slip elements 4 , which may be formed for example by continuous grooved rubber profiles. The construction of the stripping elements 3 can also be of different kinds. Only indicated are monitoring means 5 , which are formed in this example as an upward-oriented miniature camera. Also only indicated are individual bulbs 6 in the form of LED, which may be provided in a variety of colors as needed. Finally, even bulbs can 6 ' be used. Also conceivable are sensory components 6 '' (Pressure sensors, laser beams, or the like), which at random into the soil element 1 are integrated. Further indicated is an electronic unit 7 for controlling the bulbs 6 and / or the monitoring means 5 , This electronics unit 7 if necessary, outside the soil element 1 be provided. In the latter case, an only indicated plug connection 7 '' be provided, over which the bottom element 1 separated from the stream and thus from the bottom opening, not shown, for example, for cleaning purposes, can be removed.

2 shows a possible variant of a floor element 1' ,

It can be the same components as in 1 shown used. Shown here is a trained as a doormat floor element 1'' next to the electronics unit 7 other electronic components 7 ' includes. For advertising purposes is a variety of individual bulbs 6 in the soil element 1' integrated to generate words as shown. In problem cases, other words or symbols can be generated, which should lead the customer to the outside.

3 shows possible hollow sections used 2 which are used to guide and / or pick up bulbs 6 ' can be used. The bulbs 6 ' can either be between individual hollow sections 2 be positioned or be an integral part of the same. Not shown here is that the hollow sections 2 can be hinged together by suitable structural embodiments.

Recognizable, however, is that within the invisible hollow profile area 8th Data and / or power lines 9 can be moved.
