2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a wood deck has been often installed in order to effectively use a living space such as a house. Generally, when fabricating a deck, legs are fixed to the ground to be a foundation, and joists are fixed on top of each leg to form a base portion. Next, a floorboard is hung over each of the joists and fixed with nails or bolts. The size and shape of the deck surface are formed into various types according to the conditions of the building and the garden.

[0003]

However, manufacturing such a conventional deck has the following problems. Since work such as cutting, drilling, nailing, and the like of wood is often performed on site, it is difficult to perform quick and accurate work without a specialized engineer. It is difficult to change the shape and size of the deck surface after the deck is completed. It takes time to maintain and manage the deck, such as cleaning the floorboards and replacing the floor.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of such a situation, and enables a deck to be reliably manufactured in a short time without the need of a specialized engineer. Even if there is, it is an object of the present invention to provide a connected unit type wood deck which can easily change the size and shape of the deck surface.

[0005]

A connecting unit type wood deck according to the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems comprises a polygonal deck unit having a predetermined standard area formed so as to be freely connectable. A leg material arranged at the vertex position of the deck unit, a joist material fixed at a predetermined height position of the leg material, a floor plate laid over the joist material, and an edge mounted on the outer periphery of the floor plate And a base on which the floor plate and the edge plate can be placed, and a back surface of the floor plate and the edge plate which are arranged side by side at a predetermined interval on a surface of the base plate. And a connecting pin that can be fitted to the connector. In addition, the connection unit type wood deck of the present invention has a configuration in which a relief groove for guiding a drainage channel can be formed on the mounting surface of the floor plate and the edge plate on the table surface of the receiving table.

According to the connecting unit type wood deck of the present invention, a floor plate and an edge plate are placed on a pedestal of a joist material to form a deck surface. When the floor plate and the edge plate are placed on the cradle, the connection pins are fitted to the back surfaces of the floor plate and the edge plate, thereby preventing the floor plate from shifting or dropping. When connecting the deck units, first, the joists are provided at predetermined intervals in the connecting direction. Next, the floorboard is laid over the joists facing each other, the back surface of the floorboard is fitted to both connecting pins, and the floorboard is placed on the cradle. In other words, by hanging the floor plate for each deck unit and stopping with the connecting pin,
It is possible to freely combine deck units without requiring special skills. The width and shape of the deck can be arbitrarily set by adjusting the connection position and length of the deck units. Even after the deck is completed, the deck unit can be easily moved by removing the floorboard from the joist, so that the work required for changing the size and shape of the deck surface is extremely reduced.
