rod 33 and therotary member 30 are made of plastic material and are formed integrally. - In operation, referring to
FIGS. 8-12 with reference toFIGS. 4-7 , after cement is applied on a ground, a first tile “P1” is placed on the cement. Then, thefixture 20 is mounted on the first tile “P1”, with thebase 21 being inserted between the first tile “P1” and the cement. At this time, the first tile “P1” abuts a first side of the at least onespacer 22 as shown inFIG. 8 . Then, a second tile “P2” is placed on the cement and abuts a second side of the at least onespacer 22, with the at least onespacer 22 being sandwiched between the first tile “P1” and the second tile “P2”. At this time, the first tile “P1” and the second tile “P2” are juxtaposed to each other. In addition, the threadedrod 33 extends through the throughhole 32 of therotary member 30 into the hollow receivingchamber 31 of therotary member 30, and thelimit portion 331 of the threadedrod 33 is locked by the lockingportion 321 of therotary member 30, so that the threadedrod 33 is locked onto therotary member 30 and received in the hollow receivingchamber 31 of therotary member 30. In such a manner, the threadedrod 33 is fully received in the hollow receivingchamber 31 of therotary member 30 so that the threadedrod 33 will not protrude outward from therotary member 30 to protect an operator's safety when the operator is kicking therotary member 30 by feet or striking therotary member 30 by hands. Then, therotary member 30 is mounted on and rotated relative to thefixture 20 so that therotary member 30 is moved downward relative to thefixture 20 in a swiveling manner. When the inner diameter of the hollow receivingchamber 31 touches and moves downward along theshoulder 25 of the connectingportion 24 of thefixture 20, the inner diameter of the hollow receivingchamber 31 is guided smoothly by the arcuate profile of theshoulder 25 to the connectingportion 24 of thefixture 20 as shown inFIG. 10 , so that the threadedrod 33 is screwed into theinternal thread 26 of thefixture 20 easily and precisely. When therotary member 30 is further rotated and moved downward relative to thefixture 20, the inner diameter of the hollow receivingchamber 31 is slightly greater than the maximum width of the at least onespacer 22, so that the inner diameter of therotary member 30 is limited and supported by the outer edge of the at least onespacer 22, to prevent thefixture 20 from being vibrated during rotation of therotary member 30, thereby preventing thebreaking point 23 of thefixture 20 from being broken due to vibration of thefixture 20. Therotary member 30 is further rotated and moved downward relative to thefixture 20, until the bottom of therotary member 30 touches and presses the first tile “P1” and the second tile “P2” as shown inFIG. 12 , so that the first tile “P1” and the second tile “P2” are leveled by pressing of therotary member 30. After the cement is dried, the operator can kick or strike therotary member 30, to break thebreaking point 23 of thefixture 20, so that therotary member 30 and thefixture 20 are detached from the first tile “P1” and the second tile “P2”, with the base 21 being located beneath the first tile “P1” and the second tile “P2”. Then, thefixture 20 is rotated relative to and removed from therotary member 30, so that the at least onespacer 22 and the connectingportion 24 of thefixture 20 can be disposed of, and therotary member 30 can be reused. - As shown in
FIG. 13 , multiple first tiles “P1” and multiple second tiles “P2” are leveled by multiple tile leveling systems. - Accordingly, the threaded
rod 33 does not protrude outward from therotary member 30 to protect the operator's safety when the operator kicks or strikes therotary member 30. In addition, thefixture 20 will not be vibrated during rotation of therotary member 30, thereby preventing thebreaking point 23 of thefixture 20 from being worn or broken due to vibration of thefixture 20. Further, thefixture 20 has a simplified structure, thereby decreasing the cost of fabrication. Further, therotary member 30 can be reused so as to save the cost of material and to prevent waste of the material. - Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment(s) as mentioned above, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
