Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of interior decoration technology, and more specifically, to a leveling device and a leveling method thereof. Background Technology

[0002] In interior decoration construction, edge finishing and leveling of door frames and walls, as well as stone skirting boards and walls, are common tasks. When installing or replacing door frames, gaps often appear between the frame and the wall, requiring filling and leveling to ensure a tight fit and aesthetic appeal. Stone skirting boards are typically installed in the transition area between walls and floors, protecting the wall from wear and enhancing the interior's aesthetics. However, traditional stone skirting board edge finishing presents some challenges. First, the installation requires a tight fit with the wall, and precise edge finishing is needed between the skirting board and the floor to ensure both beauty and stability. Traditional edge finishing methods may require manual adjustments using standard plasterboards or cutting tools, potentially leading to uneven edges and unsatisfactory installation results.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a leveling device, including a tool body 1, a caulking component 2, and a sliding adjustment mechanism. The caulking component 2 is detachably and slidably connected to the tool body 1. The sliding adjustment mechanism is disposed within the tool body 1 and is used to drive the caulking component 2 to slide along the width direction of the tool body 1. A baffle 3 is detachably connected to the caulking component 2. The caulking component 2 includes a plastering section, and the plastering section and the baffle 3 are coplanar. The tool body 1 includes a support surface, which is parallel to the plane containing the baffle 3 and the plastering section. An operating handle 6 is provided on the side of the tool body 1 away from the support surface. The tool body 1 is also provided with a fixing knob 5 that can lock the caulking component 2 onto the tool body 1.

[0033] In this embodiment, an extension rod 7 is detachably connected to the operating handle 6. A support plate 9 is provided at the end of the extension rod 7 away from the operating handle 6. An operating handle 8 is provided on the extension rod 7 between the support plate 9 and the operating handle 6. To ensure that the support plate 9 fits well against the wall, the support plate 9 and the extension rod 7 are connected by a telescopic structure and equipped with a corresponding locking device. The telescopic structure can also be a mortise and tenon structure. By setting the extension rod 7, the worker's operating space is moved upward, solving the problem of workers bending over and hunching over during construction, thus improving work efficiency.

[0034] The leveling device in the embodiments of this application has the following transformation method:

[0035] Method 1: For example Figure 6 As shown, the filler component is connected to the tool body 1, the baffle 3 is connected to the tool body 1, and the extended support rod 7 is connected to the operating handle 6. This method can be used to level the gap between the skirting board and the wall.

[0036] Method 2: For example Figure 7 As shown, the filler component is connected to the tool body 1, and the baffle 3 is connected to the tool body 1. This method can be used for leveling the gap between the door frame and the wall.

[0037] Method 3: For example Figure 8 As shown, the filler component is connected to the tool body 1, and this method can be used for finishing and leveling the edges of the top recessed wall surface.

[0038] Of course, this application is not limited to the above three methods, and it can also be modified in other ways according to the needs of use.

[0039] In this embodiment, the grouting component 2 is connected to the tool body 1 through the first tenon structure 12, and the baffle 3 is connected to the grouting component 2 through the second tenon structure 13, which has damping.

[0040] Specifically, the first tenon structure 12 has no damping or little damping, so the sliding adjustment mechanism can be driven to slide relatively smoothly. The second tenon structure 13 has damping, so that the connection between the baffle 3 and the tool body 1 has good stability and no additional locking mechanism is required.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first tenon structure 12 includes a tenon 122 fixed on the filling component 2 and a mortise 121 opened on the tool body 1. The tenon 122 is slidably connected in the mortise 121. The tenon 122 is a T-shaped head and the mortise 121 is a T-shaped groove.

[0042] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the sliding adjustment mechanism includes a transmission rod 14 rotatably connected to the tool body 1 along the length direction of the tool body 1, a gear 15 fixed on the transmission rod 14, an adjustment knob 4 located outside the tool body 1 and fixed on the transmission rod 14, and a toothed track 16 provided on the caulking component 2. The gear 15 meshes with the toothed track 16. The gear 15 is arranged in a plurality of positions along the axial direction of the transmission rod 14. The toothed track 16 includes a long strip-shaped drive tooth 161 arranged along the length direction of the caulking component 2. The long strip-shaped drive tooth 161 is arranged in a plurality of positions. The plurality of long strip-shaped drive teeth 161 are arranged in a spaced array along the width direction of the caulking component 2 to form the toothed track 16.

[0043] In the above method, by adjusting the rotation of the transmission rod 14, the filling component 2 can be driven to slide along its width direction under the action of the gear 15 and the toothed track 16. By setting multiple gears 15, the filling component 2 has good stability when working. Of course, in another embodiment, the sliding adjustment mechanism can also adopt a screw and nut pair structure.

[0044] In this embodiment, the grouting component 2 is provided with a scale line 10 for displaying its sliding distance, and the tool body 1 is provided with a scale pointer 11 for reading the scale line 10. The scale line 10 and scale pointer 11 enable precise and controllable adjustment of the grouting component 2.

[0045] In this embodiment, the plastering part is provided with a texture, which is a fine texture. By setting the fine texture, the adhesion of the plastering part to the grouting material can be enhanced.

[0046] This embodiment also discloses a leveling method, including any of the leveling devices described above, and further comprising the following steps:

[0047] S1. Connect the caulking component 2 to the tool body 1, and connect the baffle 3 to the caulking component 2;

[0048] S2. Adjust the filler component by sliding adjustment mechanism so that its plastering part extends to the target depth, and then tighten the fixing knob 5.

[0049] S3. Place the adjusted leveling device in the gap between the door frame and the wall, and ensure that the supporting surface of the tool body 1 is in contact with the surface of the door frame, the baffle 3 is in contact with the wall, and the plastering part of the filling component 2 is in contact with the filling material in the gap. Then, by moving the leveling device by the handle, the edge leveling of the gap between the door frame and the wall can be achieved.

[0050] During the edge finishing and leveling process, an appropriate amount of sealant can be added to the gaps.

[0051] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the sliding adjustment mechanism allows for precise adjustment of the extension depth of the filler component 2, resulting in good usage accuracy; the detachable filler component 2 facilitates cleaning and maintenance, maintaining the leveler in good working condition and extending its service life; the detachable baffle 3 and extended support rod 7 allow the leveler to be applied to different usage scenarios, providing good applicability; the first mortise and tenon structure 12 and the second mortise and tenon structure 13 utilize traditional Chinese mortise and tenon structures to achieve rapid connection between the filler component 2 and the tool body 1, and between the baffle 3 and the tool body 1, not only making the application scenarios flexible but also reducing assembly time and difficulty.
