Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to floors, and particularly to an assembled DIY floor, wherein the assembly and detaching of the floor units are easy and convenient by the user himself or herself. Furthermore, by assembling different floor units of the present invention, the floor can present beautiful outlook.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The prior art assembled floors are frequently used in bathrooms and toilet for slideproof. The paving of the tiles or repairing of the tiles are performed by special workers. It is not only time consumed, but also is uneconomic. Furthermore, if it is desired to detach the tiles or change the style of the floor, the old one must be detached for the further work. However this is inconvenient and time consumed.
Moreover, the floor is combined to the ground by cements. If the tiles breaks, the work must be done again. Similarly, this work must be performed by special workers. The time is consumed and the cost is high. In summary, the prior art floor is designed for using one time. It can not be reused. Thus the works for changing styles, or paving and repairing are difficult both in time and cost.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide an assembled DIY floor, wherein the assembly and detaching of the floor units are easy and convenient by the user himself or herself. Furthermore, by assembling different floor units of the present invention, the floor can present beautiful outlook.
To achieve above objects, the present invention provides an assembled DIY floor, comprising: a floor unit having an approximate rectangular shape; an upper side of the floor unit being formed with a groove which also has an approximate rectangular shape; the groove serving for receiving a floor plate; the floor plate being adhered to the groove by through a sticky layer; an upper lateral side of the groove having a buckle for buckling the floor plate to the floor unit; an assembly portion installed around the floor unit; the assembly portion including a plurality of projections and a plurality of recesses; wherein when assembling two floor units, the projections are buckled to the recesses so as to assembly two floor units; wherein in assembly, two floor units are assembled; the projections of a floor unit being combined to the recesses of another floor unit; projections of one floor unit is combined to the recesses of another floor unit; the floor plate being combined to the groove of the floor unit through the sticky layer; and the floor unit is adhered to ground.
The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the appended drawing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In order that those skilled in the art can further understand the present invention, a description will be provided in the following in details. However, these descriptions and the appended drawings are only used to cause those skilled in the art to understand the objects, features, and characteristics of the present invention, but not to be used to confine the scope and spirit of the present invention defined in the appended claims.
Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, the DIY assembly floor of the present invention is illustrated. The present invention has the following elements.
A floor unit 1 has an approximate rectangular shape. An upper side of the floor unit 1 is formed with a groove 11 which also has an approximate rectangular shape. The groove 11 serves for receiving a floor plate 4. The floor plate 4 is adhered to the groove 11 by using a sticky layer 41 (or glue, etc.). An upper lateral side of the groove 11 has a buckle 12 for buckling the floor plate 4 to the floor unit 1.
An assembly portion 3 is installed around the floor unit 1. The assembly portion 3 includes a plurality of projections 31 and a plurality of recesses 32. When assembling two floor units 1, the projections 31 are buckled to the recesses 32 so as to assembly two floor units 2.
Referring to FIG. 3, the assembled view about the assembly of the present invention is illustrated. The floor plate 4 is combined into the groove 11. The floor plate 4 is one of tiles, stones, wood floors, decorating plats, which are combined to the groove 11 by sticky, gluing, buckling, etc. The floor units 1 of the present invention can be used in living room, bathroom, kitchen, etc. and may have various assembly ways. In changing the styles, it is only necessary to change the floor plate 4.
Referring to FIG. 4, in assembly, two floor units 2 are assembled. The projections 31 of a floor unit 1 are combined to the recesses 32 of another floor unit 1. Projections 31 of one floor unit 1 are combined to the recesses 32 of another floor unit 1. The floor plate 4 is combined to the groove 11 of the floor unit 1 through the sticky layer 41. The floor unit 1 is adhered to the ground 5.
Referring to FIG. 5, a cross sectional view about the assembly of the present invention is illustrated. It is illustrated that the floor plate 4 is placed into the groove 11 and is buckled by the buckle 12 so that the floor plate 4 is tightly combined in the groove 11. The buckle 12 is made of elastic plastics so as to firmly secure the floor plate 4 in the groove 11 with the buckle 12 expanding outwards slightly.
Referring to FIG. 6, another embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. In this embodiment, the projections are round projections 61 and the recesses are round recesses 62. In assembly, the round projections 61 are assembled to the round recesses 62.
Referring to FIG. 7, it is illustrated that the floor unit 1 of the present invention is formed with drain holes 7 for draining water so as to prevent the floor from being wet. This is suitable for bathrooms, toilets and other easily humid areas.
Referring to FIG. 8, it is illustrated that the floor unit 1 is formed with a plurality of wire trenches 8 which are arranged as a network for receiving lines, such as a network line 81, a telephone line 82 or an extension line 83 so that the wire can be hidden therein to retain the beautiful outlook of the floor unit 1.
Referring to FIG. 10, it is illustrated that after assembly, the wire trenches 8 are received with a network line 81, a telephone line 82 and an extension line 83 which are connected to the receptacles of a computer, a telephone and a power source. After assembly, the floor unit 1 has a beautiful and orderly outlook.
Advantages of the present invention will be described herein. The assembly and detaching of the floor units are easy and convenient by the user himself or herself. Furthermore, by assembling different floor units of the present invention, the floor can present beautiful outlook.
The present invention is thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
