Abutment device, in particular for installing floor elements, and method for laying floor elements

Abutment device comprising:

• a first abutment element with a first abutment face and a second abutment face which is oriented transversely to the first abutment face;
• a second abutment element with a third abutment face which is oriented transversely to the first abutment face, said second abutment element being slidingly displaceably guided in a fixable manner on the first abutment element, and a spacing between the first abutment face and the third abutment face being fixably adjustable;
• and
• a fixing mechanism, by means of which a relative position of the second abutment element with respect to the first abutment element is adjustably fixable at least in a direction from the third abutment face toward the second abutment face;
• wherein:
• the first abutment element, on a side opposite to the first abutment face, has a recess, which is limited by an edge and in which the second abutment element is arranged:
• the fixing mechanism has at least one fixing element, which is supported on at least one of the first abutment element and the second abutment element;
• and
• the at least one fixing element is configured as a wedge element.

Abutment device comprising:

• a first abutment element with a first abutment face and a second abutment face which is oriented transversely to the first abutment face;
• a second abutment element with a third abutment face which is oriented transversely to the first abutment face, said second abutment element being slidingly displaceably guided in a fixable manner on the first abutment element, and a spacing between the first abutment face and the third abutment face being fixably adjustable;
• a fixing mechanism, by means of which a relative position of the second abutment element with respect to the first abutment element is adjustably fixable at least in a direction from the third abutment face toward the second abutment face;
• the fixing mechanism having at least one fixing element, which is supported on at least one of the first abutment element and the second abutment element;
• and
• an eccentric mechanism, by means of which, by rotating the at least one fixing element, a linear displacement of the second abutment element relative to the first abutment element is fixably actuatable;
• wherein:
• the first abutment element, on a side opposite to the first abutment face, has a recess, which is limited by an edge and in which the second abutment element is arranged;
• the at least one fixing element is rotatably mounted on the second abutment element;
• an eccentric guide path for at least one engagement element is arranged on the at least one fixing element, the at least one engagement element being seated on the first abutment element or the at least one fixing element;
• and
• the eccentric guide path is a spiral path.

Abutment device comprising:

• a first abutment element with a first abutment face and a second abutment face which is oriented transversely to the first abutment face;
• a second abutment element with a third abutment face which is oriented transversely to the first abutment face, said second abutment element being slidingly displaceably guided in a fixable manner on the first abutment element, and a spacing between the first abutment face and the third abutment face being fixably adjustable;
• and
• a fixing mechanism, by means of which a relative position of the second abutment element with respect to the first abutment element is adjustably fixable at least in a direction from the third abutment face toward the second abutment face;
• wherein:
• the first abutment element, on a side opposite to the first abutment face, has a recess, which is limited by an edge and in which the second abutment element is arranged;
• the fixing mechanism has at least one fixing element, which is supported on at least one of the first abutment element and the second abutment element;
• and
• the at least one fixing element has an oblique side, which is oriented at an acute angle to the third abutment face and on which a support face is formed, and
• the at least one fixing element is supported on a corresponding oblique side of the first abutment element or of the second abutment element or a further fixing element, which is oriented parallel to the oblique side of the at least one fixing element.
