Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a method of constructing a floor such as a veranda, a terrace, a balcony or a clothesline, for connecting a plurality of deck members, which are constituent members thereof, side by side in the width direction. The present invention relates to a deck material width adjusting material to be used.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a plurality of deck materials are arranged side by side in the width direction and adjacent deck materials are connected to each other, connecting portions are formed outward from both side edges in the longitudinal direction of the deck materials. The connecting part extends from the upper part of the side edge with the upper surface plate with the locking projections hanging at the tip, and the other connecting part extends from the lower part of the side edge with the locking projection pieces standing upright on the tip. In some cases, the upper plate may be shorter than the lower plate from the upper side edge.

When such deck members are arranged side by side in the width direction, the other connecting portion of one deck member and one connecting portion of the other deck member are adjacent to each other, and the locking projections are connected to each other. And laying it on a floor bar or the like while sequentially connecting a plurality of deck materials in the same manner.

However, verandas, terraces, balconies and the like have different projections from the wall of the house, and deck materials which are mass-produced with a fixed width are arranged in the width direction as described above. When they are connected with each other, they often end up being smaller.

In order to satisfy such a small portion, the width of the deck material is finely adjusted by using play or the like of the connecting portion of the deck material, but this is limited and always satisfactory. Adjustment is not always possible. Therefore, as an example of a countermeasure in such a case, as shown in FIG. 3A, there is a method of filling a small portion using a width adjusting material a formed to have an appropriate width.

The width adjusting member a is a width adjusting member main body b which is formed of a long body having a hollow inside and has the same height as the deck member.
In this embodiment, a downward locking groove c is formed on one side and an upward locking groove d is formed on the other side. Then, as shown in FIG.
The engaging projection f of the other connecting portion e and the engaging projection h of the connecting portion g of the other deck material D2 are fitted and connected to the locking groove d. .

[0007] However, in the case of the above-mentioned conventional width adjusting material, the locking projections of the deck material are fitted in the respective locking grooves, and are fixed in the width direction. When affected by the change, it cannot be absorbed in the width direction, and may be warped or the fitting portion may come off.

Further, since the satisfiable dimensions are fixed, unless various types of width dimensions are prepared, it is not possible to cope with the case where all dimensions are not enough, which not only increases the cost but also increases the space for placing members. It requires a large space, and there is a problem in terms of work, transportation and inventory. Furthermore,
Since this width adjustment material is not a type that is fixed to a floor beam, etc.,
Stability was poor due to fluttering when walking, and discomfort was sometimes given.

[0009]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and even if the protrusion dimensions vary,
It is possible to satisfy this for all small cases of relatively small varieties, and at the same time, even if it expands and contracts due to the ambient temperature over time during use, It is another object of the present invention to provide a product that is laid and constructed and has excellent stability and usability.
