DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The detailed explanations and technical content of the present

invention are provided as follows and in combination with the drawings:

as shown in FIGs. 1 to 3, the present invention firstly provides a

substrate 10 for being spread on a support stand (not shown in the

drawings and will be further described later), and used to carry a plurality of plates 20 so as to form a raised floor (not shown in the drawings and will be further described later). The support stand is to be mounted on an indoor floor (not shown in the drawings), so as to form a space having a drop between the substrate 10 and the indoor floor (which is a prior art and will not be further described here).

The substrate 10 is provided thereon with at least one first region 11

having a shape of a long strip and a second region 12 having a shape of

a long strip. In the present embodiment, the substrate 10 is provided with

two of the first regions 11 and two of the second regions 12, in which the

two first regions 11 are provided in a mutually interspaced manner in a

first direction X and the two second regions 12 are likewise provided in a

mutually interspaced manner in the first direction X, and one of the

second regions 12 is provided between the two first regions 11, while the

other of the two second regions 12 is adjacently provided on a side of

one of the first regions 11; each of the first regions 11 and each of the

second regions 12 which are adjacent to each other are mutually joined,

and each of the second regions 12 forms a misalignment with the two

first regions 11 in a second direction Y perpendicular to the first direction

X, so as to enable the two first regions 11 and the two second regions 12

to form a segment difference 13 on at least one side in the second direction Y. In the present embodiment, the first region 11 and the second region 12 respectively form a segment difference 13 on two sides in the second direction Y.

In the present embodiment, each of the first regions 11 and each of

the second regions 12 respectively enable a plate 20 to be carried

thereon, wherein each of the first regions 11 and each of the second

regions 12 have the same area, and each of the plates carried on each

of the first regions 11 and each of the second regions 12 has the same

area; therefore, when each of the first regions 11 and each of the second

regions 12 are mutually misaligned in the second direction Y, each of the

plates 20 adjacent to each other is enabled to form mutually crossed

arrangements therebetween.

In addition, in order to enable the plates 20 to be effectively fixed on

each of the first regions 11 and each of the second regions 12, the

substrate 10 is further provided with a plurality of fixing holes 14; when

the plates 20 are provided on the substrate 10, a plurality of fastening

elements (not shown in the drawings, in which the fastening elements

are screws) can be employed, such that the fastening elements can be

screwed into the plates 20 by passing through the fixing holes 14 from a

bottom portion of the substrate 10, thereby effectively fixing the plates 20 on the substrate 10.

FIGs. 4 to 6 show a second embodiment of the substrate 30 of the

present invention; in the present embodiment, peripheral edges of the

substrate 30 further comprise a plurality of support arms 35, in which the

support arms 35 enclose on an edge where the first region 31 and the

second region 32 are not mutually joined and the same are not mutually

connected, and the support arms 35 have a height taller than a height of

the substrate 30. In addition, a support portion 36 is further protrudingly

provided between each of the first regions 31 and each of the second

regions 32 which are adjacent to each other, and each of the support

portions 36 has a height the same as the height of the support arms 35,

such that each of the first regions 31 and each of the second regions 32

are enclosed by the plurality of support arms 35 and at least one support

portion 36.

The substrate 30 is further consisted of a plate body 37 and a

strengthened bottom plate 38 located below the plate body 37, and the

first regions 31 and the second regions 32 are provided on the plate

body 37; the plurality of support arms 35 are formed by bending an edge

between the plate body 37 and the strengthened bottom plate 38, such

that the structural strength of the overall substrate 30 and the support arms 35 can be effectively increased.

In the present embodiment, in order to enable each of the plates 20

to be fixed on the substrate 30 more effectively, an edge of each of the

plates 20 has formed thereon a cover region 21 covering over the

support arms 35 and the support portions 36, and the cover regions 21

have a thickness less than a thickness of each of the plates 20.

Accordingly, when the plates 20 are respectively provided on each of the

first regions 31 and each of the second regions 32, each of the plates 20

can be fixed on each of the first regions 31 and each of the second

regions 32 by using the aforesaid fastening element, and the cover

regions 21 of each of the plates 20 can cover over the support arms 35

and the support portions 36, thereby completely shielding the substrate

30.

FIGs. 7 and 8 show a third embodiment of the substrate; in the

present embodiment, the first region 41 and the second region 42 of the

substrate 40 form the segment difference 43 on one side in the second

direction Y, and another side forms a linear arrangement. Accordingly,

when the substrates 30 and 40 of the present invention are provided on

an indoor floor, decent finishing effects can be achieved in the first

direction X as well as in the second direction Y. Each of the plates 20 is enabled to present an effect of mutually crossed arrangements at the same time, so as to enhance aesthetics of the raised floor.

As shown in FIGs. 8 to 12, the substrates of the second and the third

embodiments of the present invention can be used to provide a raised

floor 50 provided on an indoor floor; the raised floor 50 can be consisted

of, according to an area of the indoor floor, a plurality of aforesaid

substrates 30 and 40, a plurality of plates 20 carried on the substrates 30

and 40, a plurality of support stands 60 for supporting the substrates 30

and 40, and a plurality of panels 70.

In the present embodiment, structural relationships between the

substrates 30, the plates carried on the substrates, one of support

stands 60 and two of panels 70 therein are used for illustration,

wherein the support stand 60 is consisted of a rectangular frame 61 for

mounting the aforesaid substrate 30, four mount fixing plates 62

respectively provided on each end corner of the rectangular frame 61,

and four stands 63 for supporting on the indoor floor; each of the mount

fixing plates 62 is mounted on one of the stands 63, and each of the

stands 63 is capable of adjusting a height thereof independently (which

is a prior art and will not be further described here), so as to adjust a

height of each of the mount fixing plates 62. The rectangular frame 61 is consisted of two mutually interspaced horizontal bars 611 and two mutually interspaced straight bars 612 perpendicularly provided to the two horizontal bars 611, and each of the mount fixing plates 62 is respectively connected to one end between one of the straight bars 612 and one of the horizontal bars 611, in which the straight bars 612 and the horizontal bars 611 are mutually and perpendicularly provided on the mount fixing plates 62, such that the two horizontal bars 611 and the two straight bars 612 form the rectangular frame 61 for mounting the substrate 30 thereon, and for enabling the plates 20 to be respectively mounted on the two first regions 31 and the two second regions 32. It should be noted that when each of the straight bars 612 and each of the horizontal bars 611 are mounted on each of the mount fixing plates 62, the straight bars 612, the horizontal bars 611 and the mount fixing plates

62 are effectively assembled by means of fastening (which is a prior art

and not shown in the drawings, and will not be explained here) via

fastening elements. Each of the panels 70 is covered on each of the

straight bars 612 and each of the panels 70 has a positioning portion 71

covering on the straight bar 612 and having a reversed U-shape, and a

garnish strip portion 72 protruding from the positioning portion 71, in

which a drop is formed between the garnish strip portion 72 and the positioning portion 71, and one of the garnish strip portions 72 is located on an edge of the first region 31 away from the second region 32 and is adjacent to the first region 31, another of the garnish strip portions 72 is located on an edge of the second region 32 away from the first region 31 and is adjacent to the second region 32, and the two garnish strip portions 72 and the two plates 20 are on the same plane.

Furthermore, the mount fixing plate 62 is consisted of a central

support portion 621 and two lateral support portions 622 respectively

located on two corresponding sides of the central support portion 621,

one end of the straight bar 612 is fixed on the central support portion 621,

and one end of the horizontal bar 611 is fixed on the lateral support

portion 622. In addition, each of the lateral support portions 622 is further

concavely provided with an accommodation groove 623, so as to enable

one end of the horizontal bar 611 to be accommodated in the

accommodation groove 623, such that a height of the straight bar 612 on

the mount fixing plate 62 is taller than a height of the horizontal bar 611.

Therefore, when the raised floor 50 having a greater area is formed

by using the plurality of support stands 60, the plurality of panels 70, the

plurality of substrates 30 and 40 and the plurality of plates 20, a top

surface of the garnish strip portion 72 is exposed between the substrates

30 and 40 which are mutually adjacent and extended along the first

direction X, such that the top surface of the garnish strip portion 72 is

held between the two adjacent substrates 30 and 40, thereby enabling

the overall raised floor 50 to present an effect of alternate arrangements

by means of the plates 20, and to present different visual effects by

means of the garnish strip portion 72.

FIGs. 13 to 19 show a fourth embodiment of the substrate 80; in the

present embodiment, the substrate 80 have positions of upper and lower

end corners on edges where the first region 81 and the second region 82

are not mutually joined being respectively and outwardly extended to

form positioning plates 89, and each of the positioning plates 89 is not

mutually connected to the support arms 85 protrudingly extended from

an edge between the first region 81 and the second region 82.

Regarding the substrate 80 in the aforesaid fourth embodiment, the

present invention further provides a type of raised floor which is

consisted of the plurality of substrates 80, the plurality of plates 20

provided on the substrates 80, the plurality of support stands 60, and a

plurality of panel sets 90. In the present embodiment, the substrates 80,

the plates 20 and the support stands 60 are identical to the aforesaid

structures (see the description of FIGs. 8 to 12), and will not be further described here. Each of the panel sets 90 is respectively consisted of a lower panel 91 covering on each of the straight bars 612 and an upper panel 92 covering above the lower panel 91, wherein the lower panel 91 has a cover portion 911 covering above the straight bar 612 and a limiting portion 912 upwardly extended from the cover portion 911, the limiting portion 912 is upwardly protruded from the cover portion 911 and has a limiting groove 913 downwardly and concavely provided on a top surface, and the limiting groove 913 is extended along an extending direction of the straight bar 612 covered thereby. The upper panel 92 is covered on and envelopes the limiting portion 912, and a limiting bar 921 capable of being inserted into the limiting groove 913 is further provided in a position inside the upper panel 92 corresponding to the limiting groove 913.

Therefore, when each of the lower panels 91 is covered above each

of the straight bars 612, each of the lower panels 91 can be used to

mutually interspace the two adjacent substrates 80 along the first

direction X by using the limiting portion 912, and enable an edge of each

of the substrates 80 from the two adjacent substrates 80 along the first

direction X to be separately pressed against the cover portion 911, and

further cover the upper panel 92 on the limiting portion 912 while also enable the limiting bar 921 to be inserted into the limiting groove 913, thereby preventing the upper panel 92 from being deviated on the lower panel 91, thus enabling the upper panel 92 to be effectively positioned on the lower panel 91.

The two adjacent substrates 80 along the second direction Y are

mutually and tightly provided, such that the positioning plates 89 located

in the end corners of the two substrates 80 adjacently provided in the

second direction Y are mutually and adjacently provided to and pressed

against one of the straight bars 612. In order to enable the substrates 80

mounted on the support stand 60 to be fixed more stably, a movable

fixing plate 613 is further provided in a position on the straight bar 612

adjacent to the two positioning plates 89, in which the movable fixing

plate 613 is pivotally provided on the straight bar 612 by using a

fastening element 614.

After mounting the two substrates 80 adjacently provided in the

second direction Y on the support stand 60, by rotating a direction of the

movable fixing plate 613 and enabling the same to form a pressing

position pressing on the two adjacent positioning plates 89, the movable

fixing plate 613 is enabled to be pressed on the two adjacent positioning

plates 89 at the same time, and then the fastening element 614 is rotated to enable the movable fixing plate 613 to be securely fastened on the straight bar 612. Accordingly, the substrates 80 can be effectively fixed on the straight bar 612, thereby preventing gaps from being generated between the substrates 80 and the straight bars 612, and effectively reducing noises. At the same time, by covering the panel sets

90 above the movable fixing plates 613, the movable fixing plates 613

can be shielded and different visual effects can be formed on the raised

floor by the panel sets 90.

As shown in FIGs. 1 to19, in comparison to the prior art, the

substrates 10, 30, 40 and 80 and the raised floor 50 provided in the

present invention is capable of enabling the plates 20 mounted on the

substrates 10, 30, 40 and 80 to present crossed patterns particular to

wooden floors or marble floors, as well as enhancing variations and

aesthetics in applications of the overall raised floor 50. Further, when the

substrates 10, 30, 40 and 80 of the present invention are applied to the

support stands 60, apart from being lifted and increasing a space, the

effects of noise insulation and moisture resistance are also provided,

and the substrates can be conveniently lifted up on the support stands

60, so as to enable cleaning of the substrates 10, 30, 40 and 80 and the

plates 20 and performing wiring layouts. In addition, the plates 20 can be taken off the substrates 10, 30, 40 and 80 and independently replaced, thereby significantly improving maintenance efficiency and reducing maintenance costs.
