Abstract:
A floor panel has a rectangular and oblong shape, and includes a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate and forming a decorative side of the floor panel. The top layer is composed of a print provided on a carrier sheet and a transparent thermoplastic layer situated above the print. The substrate has a thickness from 2 to 10 millimeter and forms at least half of the thickness of the floor panel. The substrate is a polyurethane-based substrate and the transparent thermoplastic layer is polyurethane-based. The floor panel has a length of more than 1.1 meters and has a plurality of reinforcing layers situated outside the center line of the substrate. A reinforcing layer may be provided in combination with the substrate and the top layer.

Claim (Index 27):
A floor panel comprising:\n a substrate; and a top layer located above the substrate; wherein the substrate includes polyethylene or polypropylene material having a density of more than 450 kilograms per cubic meter; wherein the substrate has a thickness of 2 to 10 millimeters; wherein the substrate forms at least half of the thickness of the floor panel; wherein the top layer includes a digital print and a transparent or translucent layer located above the digital print; wherein the digital print is applied directly on the substrate; wherein the floor panel is rectangular and oblong and includes a pair of long edges and a pair of short edges; wherein the floor panel includes first mechanical coupling parts at the pair of long edges and second mechanical coupling parts at the pair of short edges; wherein the first mechanical coupling parts allow a horizontal and vertical locking of two of such floor panels using a turning movement along the respective long edges; wherein the first mechanical coupling parts include a tongue and a groove; wherein the tongue and the groove are substantially responsible for the vertical locking; wherein the tongue and the groove include locking parts substantially responsible for the horizontal locking; wherein the first mechanical coupling parts are substantially realized in the substrate; wherein the second mechanical coupling parts allow a horizontal and vertical locking of two of such floor panels using a downward movement along the respective short edges;\n wherein the downward movement is automatically created by the turning movement along the respective long edges; \n wherein the second mechanical coupling parts are substantially realized in the substrate; \n wherein the floor panel is provided with chamfers at the pair of long edges; \n wherein the chamfers extend to below the global level of the digital print and through the transparent or translucent layer and the digital print into the substrate; and \n wherein the chamfers form a V-groove in a coupled condition of two of such floor panels.
