Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a height-adjustable floor support, for example for use with temporary structures.
- Temporary floor structures are commonly used in combination with marquees. At present, in order to elevate the floor of a marquee a rudimentary technique is employed which involves placing undedicated pieces of wood beneath the floor to adjust the height thereof. Such a technique is time-consuming and unreliable. A modern marquee is far removed from the traditional image of a tent held by fixing pegs; today a marquee is a self-supporting structure which can have all the facilities of a conventional building, including heating and running water. There is, therefore, a demand for a modern floor support to match the other features of such marquees.
- It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a height-adjustable floor support which overcomes, or at least ameliorates, the disadvantages of known supports.
- According to the present invention there is provided a height-adjustable floor support comprising: a baseplate assembly including first interlocking members; an adapter plate for engaging with a flooring component and including second interlocking members; and at least one riser including second interlocking members releasably interlocking with the first interlocking members of the baseplate assembly and including first interlocking members, axially spaced from the second interlocking members of the riser, for releasably interlocking with the second interlocking members of the adapter plate.
- The floor support may include a plurality of the risers. At least some of the risers may have different axial lengths.
- The baseplate assembly may be provided with apertures for use in securing the baseplate assembly to a ground surface.
- The first interlocking members of the baseplate assembly may be mounted to be positioned at a range of angles relative to the baseplate.
- The first interlocking members of the baseplate assembly may be provided in a plate spaced from a baseplate of the assembly.
- The first and second interlocking members may be engaged and disengaged by rotating one set of interlocking members about the axial direction relative to the other set of interlocking members.
- One of the first and second sets of interlocking members may include a bayonet assembly. Alternatively, the first and second interlocking members may be interlocked by means of a screw thread. As a further alternative, the first interlocking members may be diametrically opposed.
- The first interlocking members may comprise a tab which may extend in the axial direction of the riser and which is formed with a neck portion, for example adjacent to the bottom plate. The tab may extend in at least one of a radially inner and a radially outer direction. The or each free end of the tab may be mitred or rounded to facilitate insertion.
- The or each riser may include a peripheral wall mounted between first and second end plates, one of which end plates is provided with the first interlocking members and the other of which is provided with the second interlocking members. The peripheral wall may include apertures which may extend from one end plate to the other end plate. The peripheral wall may be arcuate, for example, cylindrical, or may be polygonal. The polygonal regions may be arranged such that two planar regions of the peripheral wall are diametrically opposed.
- The end plate including the first interlocking members may be provided with an axially extending peripheral flange which may extend at least the axial extent of the tabs.
- The second interlocking members may be in the form of apertures formed in one of the end plates, the apertures being configured with a portion of relatively large dimensions to allow the tab of the first interlocking members to pass through in an axial direction, and a further, preferably arcuate, portion which extends in a circumferential direction and which is dimensioned to allow the neck portion of the tab to pass along the circumferentially-extending portion but which does not allow the tab to pass through in an axial direction.
- The circumferentially-extending portion of the second interlocking members may be formed at that end thereof remote from the relatively large portion with an intermediate circumferentially-extending projection to limit circumferential movement of the first interlocking member relative to the second interlocking member.
- The aperture may be formed with a tab which is bent out of the plane of the aperture to inhibit rotation relative to an adjacent riser.
- Two or four second interlocking members may be provided equally spaced around a circle.
- The adapter plate may comprise a channel member which includes upright flanges provided with apertures to allow the adapter plate to be secured to a flooring component of a temporary floor structure.
- The adapter plate may include an axially extending flange extending around the second interlocking members provided thereon.
- The adapter plate may be mounted by way of a threaded elevating mechanism.
- For a better understanding of the present invention and to show more clearly how it may be carried into effect reference will now be made, by way of example, to the accompanying drawings in which:
-
Figure 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of a height-adjustable floor support according to the present invention; -
Figure 2 is an exploded view of the floor support shown inFigure 1 ; -
Figure 3 is a perspective view of a baseplate assembly forming part of the floor support shown inFigure 1 ; -
Figures 4 ,5 and6 are perspective views of a range of risers forming part of the height-adjustable floor support according to the present invention; -
Figure 7 is a perspective view of a bottom plate forming part of the risers shown inFigures 4 to 6 ; -
Figure 8 is a perspective view of a top plate forming part of the risers shown inFigures 4 to 6 ; -
Figure 9 is a perspective view from above of an adapter plate forming part of the floor support shown inFigure 1 ; -
Figure 10 is a perspective view from below of the adapter plate ofFigure 9 ; -
Figure 11 is a perspective view of an alternative form of top plate; -
Figure 12 is a perspective view of an alternative form of bottom plate for use with the top plate ofFigure 11 ; -
Figure 13 shows a threaded elevating mechanism; and -
Figures 14 and15 show how a baseplate may be modified to operate at a range of different angles. - The height-adjustable floor support shown in
Figures 1 to 10 comprises abaseplate assembly 1 which comprises abaseplate 3 provided with apertures 5 for use in securing the baseplate assembly to a ground surface, for example by means of stakes (not shown), and aretaining mechanism 7 for receiving and retaining a riser as will be explained in more detail hereinafter. Ariser 9 is mounted on thebaseplate 1 and secured in position by theretaining mechanism 7, theriser 9 including a peripheral wall 11 mounted between abottom plate 13 and atop plate 15. The riser will be described in more detail hereinafter. Anadapter plate 17 is mounted on the top of the, or the upper, riser, again as will be explained in more detail hereinafter. The floor supports allow a temporary floor to be elevated above ground level, allowing for a basement-type configuration. - Each
riser 9 comprises a peripheral wall 11 which may be incomplete, forexample including apertures 19 which may extend from an upper end to a lower end (as shown in the drawings) of the wall. Additionally, the wall is not necessarily arcuate, but may be polygonal in plan view as shown in the figures. The apertures and polygonal regions may be arranged such that twoplanar regions 21 of the peripheral wall are preferably diametrically opposed. The apertures and the planar regions allow the riser to be gripped, either manually or by means of a tool, in order to rotate the riser. The peripheral wall 11 may be of different axial lengths as shown inFigures 4 ,5 and6 to provide different heights. If desired, however, the peripheral wall may simply be in the form of a hollow cylinder. - The
bottom plate 13 of eachriser 9 is designed with a pair of diametrically opposed interlockingmembers 23 which engage with a complementary interlocking member formed in the top plate of each riser and in the retaining mechanism of thebaseplate assembly 1. The bottom plate additionally includes acentral aperture 25. The interlockingmembers 23 comprise atab 27 which may extend substantially at right angles to the plane of the bottom plate (or in the axial direction of the peripheral wall) and which is formed with aneck portion 29, for example adjacent to the bottom plate. The free ends of thetab 27 may be mitred or rounded to facilitate insertion. Thebottom plate 13 is also provided with an axially extending peripheral flange 31 (or skirt) which extends at least the axial extent of thetabs 27 to protect the same. Of course, a greater number of interlocking members may be provided if desired. - The
top plate 15 of eachriser 9 is designed with four interlockingmembers 33 equally spaced around a circle, although in practice the number of interlockingmembers 33 will correspond to the number of interlockingmembers 23 of thebottom plate 13 or a multiple thereof. The top plate additionally includes acentral aperture 41. The interlockingmembers 33 are in the form of apertures formed in the top plate, the apertures having a keyhole configuration with aportion 35 of relatively large dimensions to allow thetab 27 of the bottom plate to pass through in an axial direction, and anarcuate portion 37 which extends in a circumferential direction and which is dimensioned to allow theneck portion 29 of thetab 27 to pass along the arcuate portion but which does not allow the tab to pass through in an axial direction. Thus, thetop plate 15 of oneriser 9 can be securely mounted to a bottom plate of an adjoining riser. The arcuate portion of the interlockingmembers 33 is formed at that end thereof remote from theportion 35 with an intermediatecircumferentially extending projection 39 which limits circumferential movement of the interlockingmember 23 relative to the interlockingmember 33 and reduces the likelihood of the interlockingmember 23 becoming jammed in the interlockingmember 33. - The
retaining mechanism 7 of thebaseplate assembly 1 comprises asheet 43 spaced from thebaseplate 3 and formed with acentral aperture 45 and with interlockingmembers 47 which correspond to the interlockingmembers 33 of thetop plate 15 of the risers so as to allow ariser 9 to be securely mounted on thebaseplate assembly 1 in the same manner as the riser would be mounted on a further riser. - The
adapter plate 17 comprises achannel member 49 which includes upright flanges 51 provided withapertures 53 to allow users to secure the floor support to a floor component (not shown) of a temporary floor structure. A retaining mechanism 55 is secured to the underside of thechannel member 49 and is essentially the same as thebottom plate 13 of a riser. The retaining mechanism 55 includes diametrically opposed interlockingmembers 57, equal in number and location to the interlockingmembers 23 of the bottom plate of a riser, and which engage with a complementary interlockingmember 33 formed in the top plate of eachriser 9 or in the retaining mechanism of thebaseplate assembly 1. The interlocking members 55 of the adapter plate are of substantially the same configuration as the interlocking members of theriser bottom plate 13 and will not be described further. The retaining mechanism 55 also includes an axially extending flange 59 (or skirt) which extends at least the axial extent of thetabs 27 to protect the same. The configuration of thechannel member 49 may be modified, if desired, to accommodate alternative temporary floor structures. - The components may be made of any suitable material, such as coated mild steel or stainless steel, suitable for an outdoor environment. However, the floor support may also be used indoors.
- The floor support according to the present invention is employed by mounting a
baseplate assembly 1 to a ground surface and securely mounting ariser 9 of selected axial extent to the baseplate assembly by engaging the interlockingmembers members adapter plate 17 is securely mounted on the assembly beneath by engaging the interlockingmembers - It should be noted that alternative interlocking members may be employed to those described above. For example, interlocking members incorporating a bayonet mechanism in which a centrally located tab on one component engages with a suitable aperture provided in an adjacent component, or a screw thread in which one component is threaded onto an adjacent component by means rotating one component a few degrees relative to the other component in the manner of a lid of a glass jar.
- The height-adjustable floor support may be modified in a number of ways. As shown in
Figure 11 , the interlockingmembers 33 of thetop plate 15 may be provided with a tab 61 within the aperture of the interlocking member, the tab 61 being bent out of the plane of the aperture to act as an anti-rotational feature when thebottom plate 13 of anadjoining riser 9 engages with thetop plate 15. That is, the tab 61 inhibits rotation in a direction towards the tab. - Correspondingly, as shown in
Figure 12 , the interlockingmembers 23 of thebottom plate 13 of a riser may be formed with atab 63 which, unlike thetabs 27 which extend both radially inwardly and radially outwardly, extends only in a single radial direction, that is, radially outwardly as shown inFigure 12 . It should be noted that the keyhole configuration for the apertures in the top plate is not essential, provided a portion of a radially inner or radially outer side wall (radially outer as shown inFigure 11 ) is configured so as to allow the tab 63 (or tab 27) to engage beneath the top plate. As illustrated inFigure 11 , the radially outer wall has a shorter circumferential extent than the radially inner wall and also a shorter circumferential extent than a radially intermediate portion of the aperture such that thetab 63 can engage beneath the top plate. In contrast, inFigures 3 to 6 and8 , both the radially outer and radially inner walls of the aperture are reduced in circumferential extent compared with a radially intermediate portion of the aperture so as to give rise to the keyhole configuration. - As shown in
Figure 13 , the retaining mechanism 55 may be separated from theadapter plate 17 by way of a threaded elevatingmechanism 65 which comprises a threadedmember 67 with arotatable member 69 mounted thereon and rotatable so as to cause the retaining mechanism to move towards and away from theadapter plate 17 in an axial direction of the threaded member as a result of rotation of therotatable member 69 in an appropriate direction. - As shown in
Figures 14 and15 , thebaseplate 3 may be modified to operate at a range of different angles. As shown, theretaining mechanism 7 is mounted on anintermediate plate 71 which has angled side walls that are pivotably mounted on correspondingly angled side walls of thebaseplate 3. Both sets of side walls are formed with a row ofapertures 73 which are positioned to allow theintermediate plate 71 to be positioned at different angles with a locking bar 75 passing through the chosen apertures.
