Floor Panel and Floor Covering Consisting of a Plurality of Such Floor Panels

A floor panel, comprising:

• a) a centrally located core provided with an upper side and a lower side,
• b) at least one first resilient coupling part and second resilient coupling part connected respectively to opposite edges of the core,
• c) which the first resilient coupling part comprises a single upward tongue, at least one upward flank lying at a distance from the upward tongue and a single upward groove formed between the upward tongue and the upward flank, wherein:
• d) at least a part of a side of the upward tongue facing toward the upward flank extends in the direction of the normal of the upper side of the core, and
• e) at least a part of a side of the upward tongue facing toward the upward flank forms an upward aligning edge for the purpose of coupling the first resilient coupling part to a second resilient coupling part of an adjacent floor panel,
• f) which the second resilient coupling part comprises a single downward tongue, at least one downward flank lying at a distance from the downward tongue, and a single downward groove formed between the downward tongue and the downward flank, wherein:
• g) at least a part of a side of the downward tongue facing toward the downward flank extends in the direction of the normal of the lower side of the core, and
• h) at least a part of a side of the downward tongue facing away from the downward flank forms a downward aligning edge for the purpose of coupling the second resilient coupling part to a first resilient coupling part of an adjacent floor panel,
• i) wherein the upward groove is adapted to receive at least a part of a downward tongue of an adjacent panel, and
• j) wherein the downward groove is adapted to receive at least a part of an upward tongue of an adjacent panel,
• k) wherein a side of the downward tongue facing away from the downward flank is provided with a locking element,
• l) wherein the upward flank is provided with a counter-locking element, said locking element being adapted to cooperate with said counter-locking element of another floor panel, and
• m) wherein at least a part of a surface of the locking element facing away from the downward flank extends in an upward direction enclosing an angle between 0 and 60 degrees with the direction in which at least a part of a side of the upward tongue facing toward the upward flank extends.
