DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other implementation methods obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] This specific embodiment provides a wooden floor connection structure and connection method, which connects two adjacent wooden floors tightly through a connection piece 1, without processing mortise and tenon structures at the edges, effectively improving the utilization rate of wood and the yield rate of the floor, and avoiding waste of wood.

[0028] The following is an explanation of the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the embodiments shown below do not limit the invention described in the claims. In addition, the entire contents of the configurations shown in the following embodiments are not limited to the solutions required as the invention described in the claims.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 A wooden floor connection structure comprises a connection piece 1, a first wooden floor 2 and a second wooden floor 3. The connection piece 1 comprises a first fixing portion 11 and a second fixing portion 12 for fixing the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3. The first fixing portion 11 and the second fixing portion 12 are connected by a connection portion 13. The connection portion 13 is arranged on the lower surfaces of the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3. The first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 are respectively provided with card grooves matching the first fixing portion 11 and the second fixing portion 12. Compared with the traditional connection method of the mortise and tenon structure, the present invention adopts the connection piece 1 to fix the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 together. There is no need to process the mortise and tenon structure at the connection. It is only necessary to process the edge of the wooden floor flat and open the card groove for use, so that the utilization rate of wood and the yield rate of wooden floor are improved, wood is saved, and the connection is tight. The structure of the connection piece 1 is further described below.

[0030] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4 The first fixing portion 11 of the connector 1 includes a first connecting plate 111 and a first clamping plate 112. The first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121 are preferably rectangular plates. One side of the first connecting plate 111 is connected to the connecting portion 13. The first clamping plate 112 is arranged on a side of the first connecting plate 111 away from the connecting portion 13. The connecting line between the first clamping plate 112 and the first connecting plate 111 is parallel to any side edge of the first clamping plate 112. It can be understood that the first clamping plate 112 is connected to the connecting portion 13 through the first connecting plate 111, and the cross-section of the first fixing portion 11 formed by the first clamping plate 112 and the first connecting plate 111 is a T-shaped structure.

[0031] Similarly, the second fixing portion 12 includes a second connecting plate 121 and a second clamping plate 122, and the structure is preferably rectangular. The second connecting plate 121 is connected to the connecting portion 13, and the second clamping plate 122 is arranged on the side of the second connecting plate 121 away from the connecting portion 13. Unlike the above-mentioned first fixing portion 11, the connecting line between the second clamping plate 122 and the second connecting plate 121 is a side edge of the second clamping plate 122. The second clamping plate 122 and the second connecting plate 121 are combined into a 7-shaped structure, the purpose of which is to facilitate the combined installation of the wooden floor. The specific installation method is described in detail below.

[0032] Specifically, the side of the second card board 122 opposite to the connection line between the second card board 122 and the second connecting board 121 is arranged close to the first card board 112. It can be understood that the second card board 122 is arranged toward the first card board 112, which can tightly combine the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 to prevent them from shifting to the outside.

[0033] Furthermore, the second clamping plate 122 is inclined toward the connecting portion 13. This arrangement can provide a downward force to the second wooden floor 3 to prevent it from bulging due to external factors such as being soaked in water, thereby achieving a better use effect. It should be noted that the inclination angle should not be too large to avoid causing inconvenience in the installation of the second wooden floor 3.

[0034] In order to facilitate processing and provide a better connection and fixing effect, in the preferred embodiment provided by the present invention, the first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121 are both arranged perpendicular to the connecting part 13, the first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121 are parallel to each other, and the connecting line between the first clamping plate 112 and the first connecting plate 111 is the vertical bisector of the first clamping plate 112, which can better fix the wooden floor, but the present invention includes but is not limited to this fixing part structure, and also includes two relative 7-shaped structures or the first clamping plate 112 is inclined.

[0035] The first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 are respectively provided with a first T-shaped groove 21 and a second T-shaped groove 31 penetrating therefrom in the length direction. The sizes of the first T-shaped groove 21 and the second T-shaped groove match the first fixing part 11 and the second fixing part 12. It should be noted that the first T-shaped groove 21 and the second T-shaped groove 31 have the same structure for convenient processing. The second T-shaped groove 31 can also be set to a 7-shaped structure to meet the use of the second fixing part 12, and the vertical part of the T-shaped groove is connected to the lower surface of the wooden floor, and the horizontal part of the T-shaped groove is located inside the wooden floor. The T-shaped groove penetrates the wooden floor along the length direction.

[0036] The distance between the first T-slot 21 and the second T-slot 31 is equal to the distance between the first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121. It can be understood that the distance between the vertical parts of the first T-slot 21 and the second T-slot 31 is equal to the distance between the two connecting plates, so that the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 can be tightly combined.

[0037] In addition, considering the characteristics of wood that expands when heated and contracts when cooled, the first fixing portion 11 and the second fixing portion 12 are both made of elastic material, such as a rubber material with a certain hardness, or the edge portions of the first fixing portion 11 and the second fixing portion 12 are coated with elastic material, which can provide a buffer for the wooden floor and effectively avoid bulging and the like due to temperature reasons.

[0038] The connecting piece 1 provided by the present invention is an integrated structure, which is easier to process, reduces the processing cost, and has a more stable structure, is more durable, and is not prone to damage.

[0039] It should be noted that the length of the present invention can be set to the same as the length of the wooden floor, or it can be set to a shorter length, such as 5-10 cm. In this way, two adjacent wooden floors are connected by setting a plurality of connecting pieces 1, such as a connecting piece 1 at each end and a connecting piece 1 in the middle. Such a setting can save materials, and compared with longer connecting pieces 1, this structure generates less friction and is easier to install.

[0040] The present invention also provides a wooden floor connection method for the above-mentioned connection structure, firstly, the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 are placed horizontally, with the first T-slot 21 and the second T-slot 31 facing upward, and the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 are aligned and tightly fitted, and the extension directions of the first T-slot 21 and the second T-slot 31 are parallel to each other. It should be noted that the tightly fitted here are the side surfaces in the length direction of the two wooden floors, so that the first T-slot 21 and the second T-slot 31 can cooperate with the connecting piece 1, and then the connecting piece 1 is inserted into the first T-slot 21 and the second T-slot 31 from the side surfaces of the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3, so that the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 are tightly connected together, and the side surfaces here refer to the side surfaces perpendicular to the extension direction of the T-slots.

[0041] In addition, the present invention also provides another method for connecting wooden floors. First, the first fixing portion 11 of the connecting piece 1 is inserted into the first T-slot 21 from the side of the first wooden floor 2, and then the second wooden floor 3 is tilted, and the edge portion of the second clamping plate 122 close to the first clamping plate 112 is aligned with the opening of the second T-slot 31, and the second wooden floor 3 is pressed. Since the second clamping plate 122 has a certain elasticity, the second fixing portion 12 can enter the second T-slot 31 to fix the first wooden floor 2 and the second wooden floor 3 together. It should be noted that this method requires that the width of the vertical part and the horizontal part of the second T-slot 31 be set to be greater than the thickness of the second clamping plate 122 and the second connecting plate 121 to ensure that the second fixing portion 12 can be inserted into the second T-slot 31 from the side.

[0042] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
