Connection for floor covering in doorway and transitional areas of vehicles, in particular, of rail vehicles

The invention aims to compensate for tolerances which occur in the interior construction of the doorway and transitional areas of a rail vehicle, using a floating floor construction and to allow a force-reducing relative displacement between the attachments and installed sections and the floor, whilst preventing the risk of stumbling and excluding the penetration of moisture between the permanently mounted attachments or installed sections and the floor, which can be displaced in relation to each other. This is achieved by a flat profile (12), borne by the floor plate (5) which rests at one end in the front face area of the floor plate (5) and at the other end is positioned so that it can be displaced spatially, in relation to the attachments and installed sections. A groove (14) which accommodates a flexible seal (15) is incorporated into the face of the flat profile (12) that lies opposite the attachments and installed sections. Said flexible seal lies against the attachments and installed sections and absorbs the tolerances. The aim is also achieved by the fact that the attachments and installed sections which cover the seal (15) are configured to be displaced horizontally in one direction, in relation to, or together with the flat profile (12).
