Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of floor tiles, and more specifically relates to a device for joining floor tiles and an installation method thereof.
  • the prior art provides a floor tile unit formed by integrally adhering a floor tile supporting rack with a floor tile.
  • a plurality of floor tile units are joined together via buckling edges provided along the peripheries of each of the floor tile supporting rack.
  • adhesives will easily flow to the buckling edges along the peripheries of the floor tile supporting rack when adhesives are applied to an upper surface of the floor tile supporting rack since upper and lower buckling edges are integrally provided with the floor tile supporting rack.
  • subsequent installation may be affected.
  • due to the heavy weight of the floor tiles high transport costs plus significant wastes of manpower and resources will be resulted when they are transported and sold after being adhered with the floor tile supporting racks.
  • the present invention provides a device for joining floor tiles, which facilitates application of adhesives on an upper surface of a floor tile fixing plate and which is itself easy to be assembled for use.
  • the device for joining floor tiles according to the present invention also facilitates installation of the floor tiles and effectively reduces manufacturing and transport costs.
  • a device for joining floor tiles comprises at least one joint unit; each joint unit comprises an L-shaped frame and a floor tile fixing plate; an upper surface of a straight vertical arm of the L-shaped frame and an upper surface of a straight horizontal arm of the L-shaped frame are each provided with a block member; the block member of the straight vertical arm and the block member of the straight horizontal arm are configured to be intersected with each other; inner engaging slots are provided on an upper surface of the L-shaped frame at an inner side of each block member; outer engaging slots are provided on an upper surface of the L-shaped frame at an outer side of each block member; the inner engaging slots engage with inner engaging hooks disposed on a bottom surface of a corresponding floor tile fixing plate along two adjacent peripheral edges of the corresponding floor tile fixing plate; the outer engaging slots engage with outer engaging hooks provided on a bottom surface along a peripheral edge of each of two other floor tile fixing plates of corresponding two other adjacent joint units.
  • the inner engaging hooks and the outer engaging hooks have identical structures and are evenly distributed on the bottom surface of each floor tile fixing plate along four peripheral edges thereof.
  • each of said inner engaging hooks has a left hook and a right hook spaced apart and symmetrically arranged.
  • a positioning slot is provided between every two adjacent inner engaging slots; each positioning slot matches with a corresponding positioning block also provided between every two adjacent inner engaging hooks.
  • the block member has a height greater than a thickness of the floor tile fixing plate but smaller than a thickness of a floor tile.
  • an upper surface of the floor tile fixing plate is applied with an adhesive layer for fixing the floor tile.
  • the upper surface of the floor tile fixing plate is opened with anti-shrinking through holes through the floor tile fixing plate; a bottom surface of the floor tile fixing plate is provided with supporting rods extending downwardly.
  • An installation method of floor tiles using the device as described above comprising the following steps:
  • the adhesive layer of the floor tile fixing plate is a layer of self-adhesive material.
  • one end of a corresponding L-shaped frame is joined with a vertical arm of another adjacent L-shaped frame.
  • the device for joining floor tiles and an installation method thereof disclosed in the present invention floor tiles are adhered to the floor tile fixing plates of the joint units after the device comprising the joint units is assembled. Gaps between adjacent floor tiles are then filled up by using seam filling adhesives.
  • the present invention has the advantages of easy transport, easy assembly and disassembly, easy and convenient use as well as significant reduction of manufacturing and transport costs.
  • a device for joining floor tiles comprises at least one joint unit 1; each joint unit 1 comprises an L-shaped frame 11 and a floor tile fixing plate 12; an upper surface of a straight vertical arm of the L-shaped frame 11 and an upper surface of a straight horizontal arm of the L-shaped frame 11 are each provided with a block member 111; the block member of the straight vertical arm and the block member of the straight horizontal arm are configured to be intersected with each other; inner engaging slots 112 are provided on an upper surface of the L-shaped frame 11 at an inner side of each block member 111; outer engaging slots 113 are provided on an upper surface of the L-shaped frame 11 at an outer side of each block member 111; the inner engaging slots 112 engage with inner engaging hooks 121 disposed on a bottom surface of a corresponding floor tile fixing plate 12 along two adjacent peripheral edges of the corresponding floor tile fixing plate 12; the outer engaging slots 113 engage with outer engaging hooks provided on a bottom surface along a peripheral edge of each of two other floor tile fixing plates
  • the inner engaging hooks 121 and the outer engaging hooks have identical structures and are evenly distributed on the bottom surface of each of the floor tile fixing plate 12 along four peripheral edges thereof.
  • the inner engaging slots 112 and the outer engaging slots 113 on each of the L-shaped frame 11 also have identical structures, and match with the inner engaging hooks 121 and the outer engaging hooks respectively.
  • the inner engaging hooks 121 and the outer engaging hooks having identical structures are each having a left hook 1211 and a right hook 1212 horizontally spaced apart and symmetrically arranged.
  • Such a hook design can effectively increase the stability of connection between two adjacent joint units 1, and facilitate easy assembly and disassembly.
  • a positioning slot 114 is provided between every two adjacent inner engaging slots 112; each positioning slot 114 matches with a corresponding positioning block 122 also provided between every two adjacent inner engaging hooks 121.
  • Such a design facilitates mutual accurate positioning between the hooks and slots, thereby allowing quick assembly between each floor tile fixing plate 12 with its respective L-shaped frame 11, and preventing the safety risk of wrong assembly of the joint unit due to mechanical failure of the hooks.
  • the block member 111 has a height greater than a thickness of the floor tile fixing plate 12 but smaller than a thickness of a floor tile.
  • An upper surface of the floor tile fixing plate 12 is applied with an adhesive layer for fixing the floor tile.
  • the adhesive layer is a layer of self-adhesive material; an upper surface of the layer of self-adhesive material is covered by a release paper; during use, the release paper can be conveniently removed to adhere the floor tile.
  • the upper surface of the floor tile fixing plate 12 is opened with anti-shrinking through holes 123 through the floor tile fixing plate; a bottom surface of the floor tile fixing plate 12 is provided with supporting rods 124 extending downwardly.
  • the anti-shrinking through holes 123 can on one hand reduce the weight of the floor tile fixing plate, and on the other hand prevent product defectiveness caused by deformation of the floor tile fixing plate as a result of overly concentrated injection stress.
  • the supporting rods 124 are used for facilitating adjustment of the entire device on a same horizontal level; during use, the supporting rods 124 may be cut away so that the floor surface can remain smooth after the floor tiles are joined together; also, the supporting rods 124 allow spaces to be left between the floor tile fixing plate 12 and the ground so as to somehow achieve ventilation and damp-proof effects.
  • the device described above effectively solves the problem of defective joining between adjacent floor tile fixing plates due to overflown adhesives beyond the peripheries of the upper surface of the floor tile fixing plate when the adhesives are applied to the upper surface, thereby significantly easing the joining between the joint units.
  • An installation method of floor tiles using the device as described above comprising the following steps:
  • the adhesive layer of the floor tile fixing plate 12 is a layer of self-adhesive material or is a similar kind of solid adhesive layer, ready to be used at any time.
  • each row of L-shaped frames 11 disposed on the level ground one end of a corresponding L-shaped frame 11 is joined with a straight vertical arm of another adjacent L-shaped frame 11.
  • a tail of a straight vertical arm of a L-shaped frame is joined with a head of a straight vertical arm of another adjacent L-shaped frame, and the two straight vertical arms of the adjacent L-shaped frames are disposed on a same straight line.
  • the device can be sold and transported independently.
  • the floor tiles are only adhered to the device during installation. Therefore, the present invention is useful and cost-saving in that the high transport cost for the integral pieces of floor tiles adhered to their corresponding floor tile supporting racks is saved.
  • a device for joining floor tiles and an installation method thereof are disclosed.
  • the device can be sold and transported independently. Therefore, the high transport cost for the integral pieces of floor tiles adhered to their corresponding floor tile supporting racks is saved.
