Definitions

  • the present invention can be applied to the laying of floors and is particularly handy for the floor areas in the proximity of a wall. It can also be used for the fitting of sections gripping window and door glass and for the removal of the residual building material and of already laid floors.
  • the laying of floors envisages all the component parts of the floor being put next to one another or fit in.
  • the worker often finds it difficult to put component parts next to an already laid floor, especially if component parts are quite thin or if the job needs to be done quickly because of the use of glues for the assembling.
  • the problem is solved by using a hammer and hitting the edge of the component part opposite to that where component parts have been put next to each other or fit in, thus taking the risk of damaging the component part itself.
  • makeshift tools can be used including chisels, screwdrivers and so on with an increased risk of damaging either the component part or the wall.
  • the ' EP-1600580 ' can solve the problem. It describes a tool including horizontal rod, a flanged member at its end, a stabilizing ring at the end of the rod opposite to that of the flanged member and a weighted member used to generate a momentum which is transferred in a horizontal direction.
  • the flanged member has a vertical part and a horizontal part and the vertical part has a notch which contacts the floorboard.
  • the weighted member slides on the rod toward the stabilizing ring and the momentum is transferred to the vertical part of the vertical member leading a horizontal force to be transmitted to the floorboard - fixed to the vertical member of the flanged member - in the same direction of the weighted member.
  • the tool is not flawless. Firstly, the floor-layer is likely to hurt his hand when shifting the weight. Moreover, the notch of the weighted member acts against the upper part of the component part of the floor, thus easily deforming it or splintering it. Moreover, when the tool is in motion, it is likely to scratch the component part of the floor since there are no means to protect the floor when the tool glides on it.
  • the laying of floors can raise another problem to the worker, namely the residual concrete (or other building material) at the base of the wall, which needs to be removed for the component part to be fit next to the wall.
  • Another problem can be raised, similar to the above-mentioned, in the laying of component parts, namely the fitting of sections gripping window and door glass into the frames of windows and doors. Given the proximity of the section to the glass, the fitting is often difficult and the glass can be scratched or splintered.
  • the object of the present invention is to produce a tool able to solve the above-mentioned problems and to put it to the disposal of workers.
  • One more object of the invention is to produce a hammer-like tool able to hit a floor component part without damaging it.
  • One more object of the invention is to produce a tool able to remove component parts of already laid floors.
  • the tool includes a body, the first stop, the second stop, a weight, means that facilitate the movement of the weight itself and a hitting element.
  • Complementary elements are a plastic or rubber cap and a chisel-like element.
  • the body has a prism-like shape, is hollow and contains the stops, the weight and the means facilitating the movement of the weight. When used, the longitudinal axis of the body is parallel to the work surface.
  • the stops are placed at both ends of the hollow body.
  • the means facilitating the movement of the weight namely guide slots made of self-lubricant material or rollers, spheres or small wheels extend between the stops.
  • the weight has quite a flat shape and is shifted manually thanks to a handle fixed to the weight itself with a shank going through a slit placed on the side opposite to that resting on the floor. There are no means facilitating movement if the weight is made of a self-lubricant material.
  • the hitting element is a plate higher than the body and extending beyond the body downwards. At the bottom it has at least a stop facing the inside.
  • the chisel-like element is fit into the body in the place of the hitting element. Underneath the hitting element and at the base one or more thin plates are fixed. They are made of an anti-scratch material like, for instance, rubber. Anti-scratch plates of different thickness can be used on the tool to adapt it to the different thickness of component parts of the floor. Anti-scratch plates are particularly useful when the tool glides on glass sheets to fit sections gripping window and door glass into the frames of windows and doors.
  • the tool it is possible to push hard the component part of the floor in order to fix it to those already laid, even if there's little room between the component part and the wall (or another obstacle).
  • the tool is particularly handy when glues are used for a quick assembling.
  • the weight is shifted manually with a handle.
  • the worker can not possibly hurt himself when the weight collides heavily with one of the stops, since his hand never touches the weight.
  • the plate-shaped-weight is definitely longer than the slit placed on the body. The weight covers the whole slit , no matter where the handle is. Therefore, the worker can not possibly hurt himself by accidentally inserting his fingers through the slit into the body of the tool. Both the above-mentioned features guarantee the safety of the tool.
  • the tool includes a hollow body 1, the first stop 2, the second stop 3, a plate-shaped weight 4, two guide slots 5, a hitting element 6, a cap 7 and plates 8 made of anti-scratch material.
  • the rectangular parallelepiped-shaped body 1 contains the plate 4 and the two guide slots 5.
  • the two guide slots are self-lubricant C-shaped straight-lined sections, placed along the longer sides of the rectangular base of the body 1. Along the guide slots 5 glides the heavy plate 4.
  • the stops 2, 3, small rectangle-shaped plates are placed at both ends of the body 1.
  • the plate 4 collides with the fronts of the stops 2, 3, facing the inside of the body 1.
  • a slit 9 is placed in the centre of the surface, extending in parallel with the longitudinal axis of the body 1.
  • a handle 10 is fixed to the plate 4 thanks to a shank 11 going through the slit 9.
  • the hitting element 6 is a plate higher than the body 1 so that it extends beyond the body 1 downwards.
  • the hitting element 6 is L-shaped and has a stop 14 in its lower part facing the inside and parallel to the base of the body 1.
  • the holes of the hitting element 6 through which screws 13 are fit in are button-hole-shaped. Underneath the base of the body 1 resting on the floor a few rubber anti-scratch plates 8 are fixed.
  • the tool When used, the tool is placed on the component part of the floor which needs to be fit in.
  • the longitudinal axis of the body 1 is parallel to the work surface.
  • the hitting element 6, facing downwards with respect to the body 1, is placed - with its stop 14 - in the middle or in the lower part of the edge of the component part, opposite to that which needs to be fit in.
  • the worker can grasp the handle 10, - previously placed in such a way that the shank 11 is at the far end of the slit 9 next to the hitting element 6 - and push it hard towards the first stop 2.
  • the plate 4, fixed to the handle 10 thanks to the shank 11, is forced to move from the second stop 3 along the guide slots 5 and collide with the first stop 2.
  • the collision is such as to shift both the tool and component part of the floor on which the hitting element 6 rests. Consequently the component part of the floor is forced to fit into the component part next to it.
  • the tool is particularly handy when the component part to be fit in is in the proximity of a wall.
  • the hitting element 6 is placed between the wall and the component part of the floor, in the little room at his disposal, so that the stop 14 of the hitting element 6 is placed against the edge of the component part of the floor opposite to that which needs to be fit in.
  • the worker in this case, can use a hitting element 6 with an extremely thin stop 14, as shown in Figure 12.
  • the cap 7 enables the tool to be used like a hammer. It is therefore possible to hit the component part of the floor from above to fix it better with glue or laterally to put it next to those already laid.
  • the cap 7 is made of rubber and does not damage the component part when hit.
  • a chisel-like element 16, - made of an L-shaped plate, with its cutting edge facing outwards and parallel to the base of the body 1 - is fixed to the second stop 3 with the screws 13.
  • the worker can then grasp the handle 10- previously placed in such a way that the shank 11 is at the far end of the slit 9 next to the first stop 2 - and push it hard towards the other end of the slit 9.
  • the plate 4, fixed to the handle 10 is forced to move from the first stop 2, far from the wall, glide along the guide slots 5 and collide with the second stop 3, next to the wall. Given the weight of the plate 4 and the quick forced movement, the collision against the second stop 3 is such as to enable the cutting edge of the chisel-like element 16 to collide heavily with the base of the wall, thus removing the residual concrete, plaster or other building material.
  • the chisel-like element 16 is obviously able to remove the residual plaster, glue or other building material from the whole the floor of a room.
  • the chisel-like element 16 can also be used to remove the component parts from an already laid floor.
  • the tool can be used in the same way, with the chisel-like element 16.
  • the chisel-like element 16 is placed on the section gripping the glass.
  • a quick movement of the plate 4 up to the second stop 3, next to the section of the window sash leads to a shifting of both the tool and the section gripping the glass, thus enabling the fitting of said section into the frame of the window sash.
