    摘要: A floor panel contains opposite edges that contain coupling parts to link two floor panels. These coupling parts contain locking planes: first and second locking planes on the first edge with an enclosed angle between 90° and 175°; and third and fourth locking planes on the second edge with an enclosed angle between 90° and 175°. The first locking plane is closer to the top of the floor panel than the second locking plane. The angle with the surface of the floor panel of the first locking plane is smaller than the second locking plane. The angle with the floor plane surfaces of the third locking plane is smaller than that of the fourth locking plane. The second locking plane is provided for interaction with the fourth locking plane of a coupled panel. The first locking plane is provided for interaction with the third locking plane of a coupled panel.

    摘要: A siding product has a downwardly opened connector near an upper portion of a frontal face. There is a channel below the downwardly opened connector. The siding product also has an upwardly opened connector near a lower portion of a rear face. There is a projection on the upwardly opened connector that interlocks or connects with the channel when the two connectors are connected together. The protrusion on one siding product and the channel on another siding product cooperate to prevent the top siding product from falling or distorting its shape prior to installation of the top siding piece on the structure.
