DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Please refer to Figs. 2 to 5. The incombustible fireproof network elevated floorboard of the present invention includes a base seat cover board 2, a central cover board 3, side cover boards 4, leg supports 5, fitting pads 6 and a connecting seat 7.
Referring to Fig. 2, the leg support 5 is independently made and is substantially reverse U-shaped seen from lateral side. The top section is formed with a -shaped dent 52 and a central thread hole 51. A corresponding fitting pad 6 is disposed on the upper side of each leg support 5. The top face of the fitting pad 6 is 20 formed with a -shaped dent 62 and a central through hole 61.
The periphery of the base seat cover board 2 is formed with downward extending flange 22 and several thread holes 21. Multiple screws 8 are screwed into the thread holes 21 to sequentially lock the base seat cover board 2, fitting pad 6 and 25 leg support 5 with each other.
4 Referring to Fig. 3, the periphery of the central cover board 3 is also formed with downward extending flange 31 for inserting into the -shaped dent 52 of the leg support 5. A fitting pad 6 is sandwiched between the central cover board 3 and each leg support 5.
The side cover board 4 is disposed with four downward projecting fixing plates 4 1. A middle of one side of the side cover board 4 is formed with a notch 42. The two fixing plates 41 approximate to the notch 42 is closer to the side on which the notch 42 is formed, while the other two fixing plates 41 is farther from the side opposite to the side on which the notch 42 is formed, whereby two side cover boards 4 can be symmetrically matched with each other.
The connecting seat 7 is a square body. The four comers of the connecting seat 7 are respectively formed with four sockets 71 facing upward. Each socket 71 is disposed with three cavities 72, whereby the leg support 5 can be fitted into the two lateral cavities 72 of the socket 71.
The fitting pad 6 is fitted with the upper side of each leg support 5. By means of the thread hole 51 formed at the center of the top face of the leg support 5 and the #-shaped dent 52, the leg support 5 can be assembled with the base seat cover board 2 in a factory. In working site, the flanges 31 of the central cover board 3 and the four fixing plates 41 of the side cover board 4 are quickly assembled with the base seat cover board 2 and the respective leg supports 5 which have been already assembled in the factory. Referring to Figs. 2, 4 and 5, the base seat cover boar d 2, fitting pad 6 and leg support 5 are sequentially locked with each other by screws 8.
The downward extending flanges 22 of the periphery of the base seat cover board 2 are fitted- into the #-shaped dent 52 of the top face of the leg support 5 and the flanges 31 of the central cover board 3 are fitted into the -shaped dent 52 of the leg support 5. In addition, the four fixing plates 41 of the side cover board 4 are fitted into the #-shaped dent 52 of the respective leg supports 5. Accordingly, the assembly can be easily and quickly performed and a firm connection can be achieved.
By means of the #-shaped dent 52 of the leg support, the leg support can be connected with the cover boards by various angles. In addition, the notches 42 of each two adjacent side cover boards 4 together define a through hole which facilitates the replacement of the cover board and serves as a wire exit. The metallic leg support 5 has better fireproof property so that the safety is greatly enhanced.
Refening to Fig. 6, in use, the respective leg supports 5 can be positioned at a certain height as necessary. The multiple connecting seats 7 are interconnected to define a wire laying space in which the electric wire 9 is elastically laid and connected with a socket 10 at a desired position. Therefore, the present invention can be easily and quickly assembled and provide a firm connecting effect as well as enhance the fireproof effect to meet the requirement for fire safety of skyscraper building. Moreover, the positions of the wire exits can be freely changeably arranged to enhance the practicability and safety.
Accordingly, the metallic leg supports are arranged at a certain length and the fitting pads are respectively fitted onto the upper sides of the leg supports. By means of the thread hole formed at the center of the top face of each leg support and the shaped dent formed on the top face of the leg support, the leg support can be assembled with the base seat cover board in a factory. In working site, the flanges of the central cover board and the four fixing plates of the side cover board are quickly assembled with the base seat cover board and the respective leg supports which have 6 I been already assembled in the factory. Therefore, the present invention can be easily and quickly assembled and provide a firm connecting effect. Moreover, the positions of the wire exits can be freely changeably arranged to enhance the practicability and safety.
According to the above arrangement, the present invention has the following advantages:
Ia. After the fitting pads are respectively fitted with the leg supports, the leg support can be assembled with the base seat cover board in a factory. In working site, the flanges of the central cover board and the four fixing plates of the side cover board are quickly assembled with the base seat cover board and the respective leg supports which have been already assembled in the factory. Therefore, the present invention can be easily and quickly assembled and provide a firm connecting effect.
2a. The metallic leg supports have better heat-resistance so that the fireproof effect of the floorboard is enhanced and the safety can be greatly increased to meet the first grade fireproof standard.
3a. The top face of the leg support is formed with multiple grooves, whereby the cover boards can be assembled with the leg support by various angles.
4a. The present invention can be quickly assembled so that the working time is shortened.
5a.- The leg supports and the cover boards define a wire laying space, whereby 7 the wire exit can be freely arranged at any position.
The above embodiment is only used to illustrate the present invention, not intended to limit the scope thereof Many modifications of the above embodiment 5 can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
