Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ceramic tiles, and in particular to a ceramic tile assembly structure and a ceramic tile installation, disassembly and replacement method. Background Art

[0002] In the traditional building decoration industry, the most common method of laying tiles is to use cement mortar for pasting. However, due to factors such as the quality of cement itself, the viscosity of mortar, and the pasting skills of construction workers, the firmness of tile pasting and the quality of the project cannot be reliably guaranteed, and it is too dependent on the technical level of construction workers. At the same time, a large amount of cement and river sand will be consumed during the construction process, making the construction cost high, which goes against the current development trend of green environmental protection and sustainable development.

[0003] On the other hand, with the gradual improvement of living standards, people are pursuing higher and higher comfort in their homes. Traditional floor heating is mainly based on water heating, but water heating has the disadvantages of complex construction technology, requiring the residential house to have its own gas pipeline for gas supply, and high transformation cost. Therefore, electric heating that does not require gas and can be flexibly partially transformed has come into being. There are two main structural forms of floor heating. One is laid in the mortar layer at the bottom of the floor in the form of heating cables, and the other is encapsulated into modular graphene films, graphene modules, or directly encapsulated to the bottom of ceramic tiles, and the modules are connected by wires. If it is an encapsulated graphene film or graphene module, the construction process generally adopts the method of first leveling, laying thermal insulation materials, then laying and connecting graphene films or graphene modules, and finally cement mortar leveling and laying floor tiles; if it is an integrated heating ceramic tile module, the construction process generally adopts the method of first leveling, laying thermal insulation materials, cement mortar leveling, and laying and connecting heating ceramic tile modules. There is a problem with both of the above methods, that is, the floor heating module will be installed at the bottom of the floor with the floor tiles and cement mortar and cannot be disassembled, and the modules are connected by wires. If problems such as poor wire connection and floor heating module failure occur after long-term use, rework and maintenance are extremely difficult, and the floor tiles and cement mortar layers need to be knocked out for maintenance. Moreover, since the wires are also buried in the cement mortar layer, when a single floor tile is removed, it is very easy to damage the connecting wires of the surrounding floor tiles, which brings great hidden dangers for later maintenance. At the same time, since there are too many floor tiles that need to be removed for maintenance, which easily affects normal life, it also hits consumers' confidence in choosing heating ceramic tiles, and greatly affects the promotion and use of electric floor heating in the construction industry. In summary, when the tile structure of the prior art encounters problems such as poor wire connection and floor heating module failure after long-term use, the floor tiles and cement mortar layers need to be knocked out, which easily damages the tiles that are not necessary to be replaced, and it is difficult to accurately remove the corresponding tiles.

[0004] Therefore, the prior art has defects and needs to be improved and developed. Summary of the invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that, in view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, a tile assembly structure and a tile installation, disassembly and replacement method are provided, aiming to solve the problem in the prior art that when the tile structure encounters poor wire connection, floor heating module failure and the like after long-term use, the floor tiles and cement mortar layer need to be knocked off, which easily damages the tiles that are not necessary to be replaced, and it is difficult to accurately disassemble the corresponding tiles.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0060] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer and more specific, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0061] The present invention can save a lot of cement mortar in construction, make tile laying easier, reduce construction costs, and each tile can be independently installed, disassembled and replaced; if applied to floor heating tile modules, it will greatly improve the convenience of later maintenance of floor heating modules. After locating the faulty floor heating module, it can be removed with simple tools, which is convenient and quick, and is conducive to vigorously promoting the practical application of electric floor heating in the construction industry.

[0062] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6The present invention provides a tile assembly structure, including: a base 100, a tile fixing part 200 and a connecting part 300. The base 100 is used to be laid on the ground G, that is, it is located at the bottom, and the bottom surface of the base 100 is in direct contact with the laid ground G, and a clamping groove 110 is provided on the base 100. The tile fixing part 200 is arranged on the base 100, and is used to fix and connect the bottom of the tile C, that is, the upper surface of the tile fixing part 200 is in direct contact with the tile. A sliding groove 210 is provided on the side of the tile fixing part 200 facing the base 100. The connecting part 300 includes a sliding part 310 and a clamping part 320 connected to each other, the sliding part 310 is accommodated in the sliding groove 210, and the clamping part 320 is clamped with the clamping groove 110.

[0063] The embodiment of the present application uses the base 100, the tile fixing member 200 and the connecting member 300 to fix the tile to the ground. When installing, the sliding part 310 is slid into the sliding groove 210, and the clamping part 320 is clamped with the clamping groove 110 to realize the detachable connection between the base 100 and the tile fixing member 200. When disassembling, it is only necessary to provide an upward pulling force for the tile and the base 100, so that the clamping part 320 of the connecting member 300 can be separated from the clamping groove 110, thereby improving the convenience of installing, disassembling and replacing the tile. When the tile structure of the present invention encounters poor wire connection, floor heating module failure and the like after long-term use, there is no need to knock off the floor tiles and cement mortar layer, and the tiles that are not necessary to be replaced will not be damaged. The corresponding tiles can be simply, conveniently and accurately disassembled.

[0064] In one embodiment, see Figure 7 The sliding part 310 includes an upper sheet 311, a columnar body 312 and a lower sheet 313 connected in sequence, and the upper sheet 311, the columnar body 312 and the lower sheet 313 are arranged in an "I" shape; the tile fixing part 200 is arranged in a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and the sliding groove 210 includes an inner groove 211 and a connecting groove 212 which are integrally opened, the inner groove 211 is opened inside the tile fixing part 200 along the length direction of the tile fixing part 200, and is open at both ends of the length direction of the tile fixing part 200; the connecting groove 212 is opened on the side of the tile fixing part 200 facing the base 100 along the length direction of the tile fixing part 200; the groove width of the inner groove 211 is greater than the groove width of the connecting groove 212. The upper sheet 311 is accommodated in the inner groove 211, the columnar body 312 is accommodated in the connecting groove 212, and the lower sheet 313 is located outside the tile fixing part 200.

[0065] Specifically, the tile fixing part 200 is a long strip of aluminum profile with a groove on the bottom surface. The aluminum profile is hollow, and the hollow part serves as an internal groove 211. A strip groove is opened along the length direction at the bottom of the aluminum profile, and the strip groove serves as a connecting groove 212. The sliding part 310 of the connecting part 300 is a two-layer flat sheet body distributed up and down, and the upper sheet body 311 and the lower sheet body 313 are connected by a narrow columnar body 312, which is arranged in an "I" shape. The outer diameter of the columnar body is slightly smaller than the groove width of the connecting groove 212 at the bottom of the tile fixing part 200, and the spacing between the upper sheet body 311 and the lower sheet body 313 is slightly larger than the height of the connecting groove 212 at the bottom of the tile fixing part 200, so that the upper sheet body 311 of the connecting part 300 can enter the hollow space of the aluminum profile, and the columnar body enters the connecting groove 212, moves forward and backward along the groove direction, and adjusts the position. During installation, it is only necessary to slide the sliding part 310 from one side of the aluminum profile to the corresponding position, which is very convenient.

[0066] In one embodiment, the slide groove 210 also includes an external groove 213 for accommodating the lower plate 313. The external groove 213 is opened along the length direction of the tile fixing 200 on the side of the tile fixing 200 facing the base 100, and is connected to the connecting groove 212; the groove width of the external groove 213 is greater than the groove width of the connecting groove 212.

[0067] Specifically, the lower surface of the tile fixing member 200 has an inner concave design to form an inner groove, namely, the outer groove 213. The outer groove 213 is provided to accommodate the lower sheet 313, so that the rest of the lower surface of the tile fixing member 200 forms a close contact with the upper surface of the base 100, thereby improving the stability of the tile structure.

[0068] In one embodiment, the clamping portion 320 includes a center plate 321, a first clamping body 322, and a second clamping body 323. The center plate 321 has a first end connected to the lower plate 313 and a second end away from the lower plate 313. The first clamping body 322 and the second clamping body 323 are symmetrically connected to the second end of the plate and both extend to the lower end surface of the lower plate 313. An elastic gap is provided between the first clamping body 322 and the second clamping body 323 and the center plate 321. The side of the first clamping body 322 away from the center plate 321 and the side of the second clamping body 323 away from the center plate 321 are both clamped in the clamping groove 110.

[0069] Specifically, the clamping portion 320 of the connecting member 300 is made of plastic material. Since an elastic gap is set between the first clamping body 322 and the second clamping body 323 and the center plate 321, when the first clamping body 322 and the second clamping body 323 are subjected to lateral external force, they are squeezed into the elastic gap, and the overall size of the clamping portion 320 is reduced, so that the side of the first clamping body 322 away from the center plate 321 and the side of the second clamping body 323 away from the center plate 321 are clamped in the clamping groove 110, which makes installation and disassembly simple and convenient.

[0070] In one embodiment, the width of the elastic gap increases along the direction from the second end of the plate body to the first end of the plate body. The side of the first clamping body 322 away from the center plate 321 is a first guide surface and a first clamping surface continuously arranged along the direction from the second end of the plate body to the first end of the plate body, and the side of the second clamping body 323 away from the center plate 321 is a second guide surface and a second clamping surface continuously arranged along the direction from the second end of the plate body to the first end of the plate body. The first guide surface and the second guide surface are both set as first inclined surfaces, and the distance between the first inclined surface and the center plate 321 increases along the direction from the second end of the plate body to the first end of the plate body. That is, the surface where the outer side surfaces of the first clamping body 322 and the second clamping body 323 are located is an inverted cone. When the connecting member 300 is pressed from top to bottom against the clamping groove 110 whose diameter is slightly smaller than the maximum outer diameter of the inverted cone, the outer wall of the inverted cone portion can be squeezed and thus shrink toward the center of the body.

[0071] In one embodiment, see Figure 8 , the first holding surface and the second holding surface are both provided with a second inclined surface, and the distance between the second inclined surface and the center plate 321 decreases along the direction from the second end of the plate body to the first end of the plate body. That is, the outer diameter of the outer wall of the inverted cone portion increases first and then decreases from bottom to top. When pressed in place, the notch of the holding groove 110 can be clamped into the interval where the outer diameter of the inverted cone portion decreases from bottom to top, so that the third connecting member 300 can be firmly embedded in the holding groove 110 and is not easy to fall out, thereby improving the structural firmness of the tile. When the third connecting member 300 is embedded in the holding groove 110, when the tile is pulled up by auxiliary tools such as suction cups, the notch of the holding groove 110 can also compress the first holding surface and the second holding surface, so that the outer wall of the inverted cone portion is squeezed and shrinks toward the center of the body, so that the holding portion 320 can be removed from the holding groove 110, and the connecting member 300 can be separated from the base 100.

[0072] In another embodiment, see Figure 7, the first holding surface and the second holding surface are both set as step surfaces. The angle of the step surface can be set as an acute angle, a right angle or an obtuse angle. That is, the outer wall of the inverted cone part can be provided with a step, and the outer diameter at the step becomes smaller. When pressed into place, the notch of the holding groove 110 can be stuck into the step position, and is limited by the step and is not easy to fall out, thereby improving the structural firmness of the tile. When the tile is pulled up with force by auxiliary tools such as a suction cup, the notch of the holding groove 110 can be destroyed by extrusion, so that the step of the outer wall of the inverted cone part is directly destroyed, and the holding part 320 can be separated from the holding groove 110, and the connector 300 and the base 100 can be separated.

[0073] In one embodiment, the base 100 is configured to be a hollow rectangular shape, including an upper wall 120 and a lower wall 130 arranged opposite to each other, and the clamping groove 110 is configured to be a first through hole opened on the upper wall 120, and the first clamping body 322 is clamped at the edge of the first through hole on the side away from the center plate 321 and the second clamping body 323 is clamped at the side away from the center plate 321.

[0074] Specifically, the base 100 is a rectangular aluminum profile, that is, a hollow structure, and the clamping groove 110 is opened in the upper wall 120 of the aluminum profile to form a first through hole, and the first through hole is used as the clamping groove 110. If the outer diameter of the outer wall of the inverted cone part of the connecting piece 300 is set to increase first and then decrease from bottom to top, when pressed into place, the upper wall 120 of the base 100 can be clamped into the interval where the outer diameter of the inverted cone part decreases from bottom to top. If the outer wall of the inverted cone part is provided with a step, the outer diameter at the step becomes smaller, and when pressed into place, the upper wall 120 of the base 100 can be clamped into the step position. Since the aluminum profile is strong and hollow, it is only necessary to open a hole in the aluminum profile to form the clamping groove 110. The structure is simple and easy to install and disassemble, and it has no effect on the firmness of the tile structure.

[0075] In one embodiment, the tile assembly structure further includes an expansion bolt, the upper wall 120 is provided with a second through hole 121, the lower wall 130 is provided with a third through hole 122, the aperture of the second through hole 121 is larger than the maximum diameter of the expansion bolt, and the third through hole 122 cooperates with the expansion bolt to fix the base 100 on the ground. That is, it is fixed to the ground through the expansion bolt. Specifically, the base 100 is also provided with a through hole that passes through the upper and lower surfaces, the through hole that passes through the upper wall 120 is the second through hole 121, and the through hole that passes through the lower wall 130 is the third through hole 122. The aperture of the second through hole 121 is larger than the maximum diameter of the bolt head, thereby allowing the expansion bolt head to pass through, and the aperture of the third through hole 122 is slightly larger than the bolt thread diameter, so that the expansion screw can be hidden in the rectangular aluminum profile during normal installation to avoid affecting the good contact between the upper surface of the base 100 and the lower surface of the tile fixing part 200.

[0076] In one embodiment, the tile fixing member 200 is arranged at each edge of the lower end surface of the tile, and the tile assembly structure further includes a pad 400, which is located in the cavity surrounded by the base 100 and the tile fixing member 200, and is used to provide support for the tile. The material of the pad 400 is preferably polystyrene resin. The present invention only needs to set the tile assembly structure at each edge of the lower end surface of the tile for easy installation, and set the pad 400 in the middle space to provide support for the middle of the tile.

[0077] In one embodiment, see Fig. 9 and Fig.10 , a plurality of the tile fixing members 200 are arranged on one base 100. For example, the tile fixing members 200 at the bottom of two adjacent tiles can be assembled and connected to the same base 100 through the connecting member 300, and the two adjacent tiles can be arrayed along the stretching direction of the aluminum profile, and two or more tiles can also be arrayed in this direction. The two tile fixing members 200 can also be distributed on both sides of the stretching direction of the aluminum profile, and the tile seam between the two tiles is located on the central symmetric plane of the aluminum profile of the base 100. In this way, the number of bases 100 used is relatively small, which makes it easier to lay them on the ground and improves the assembly efficiency.

[0078] In one embodiment, the tile fixing member 200 is provided with a plurality of grooves 220 on one side away from the base 100. Specifically, the upper surface of the tile fixing member 200 is provided with uneven long grooves, which is beneficial to increase the bonding area when the tile fixing member 200 is glued to the bottom of the tile, so as to improve the reliability of bonding.

[0079] The upper surface of the tile fixing member 200 is bonded to the lower surface of the tile by glue, and the glue may be preferably epoxy resin structural glue. The backing plate 400 and the lower surface of the tile may be bonded by glue, and the glue may be preferably silicone glue.

[0080] The tile assembly structure of the present invention makes construction faster and more convenient, and can be individually disassembled, maintained, and replaced in the later stage, so it is easy to apply to the structure of heating ceramic tiles, which is conducive to the promotion and use of heating ceramic tiles.

[0081] The present invention also provides a method for installing ceramic tiles based on the ceramic tile assembly structure as described above, comprising:

[0082] Level the cement base of the ground in advance;

[0083] Laying the base 100 and fixing the base 100 on the ground;
