The resulting finished flooring exhibits high structural precision, excellent forming effect, simplicity, aesthetics, environmental friendliness, and low cost.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a recyclable modular interlocking rubber flooring, comprising interlocking modules and fixing plates; wherein, The splicing module includes a rectangular plate, mounting blocks, mating grooves, a flexible rack, a drive gear, a synchronizing gear, and a spring; a set of splicing modules includes three rectangular plates that are fixedly connected by the flexible rack and spring; the drive gear and synchronizing gear on the rectangular plate in the middle of the splicing module enable the rectangular plates on both sides of the set of splicing modules to rotate and fold synchronously; four sets of splicing modules are assembled into a head-to-tail splicing rectangular ring by multiple mounting blocks and mating grooves on the surface of the splicing modules, and this rectangular ring is fixedly connected to other rectangular rings by mounting blocks and mating grooves on the surface of the splicing modules; The fixing plate includes a slider and a conical ring; the fixing plate is located in the middle of the rectangular ring, and the slider is inserted into the mating groove of the rectangular ring by the conical ring, so as to realize the fixed connection between the rectangular ring and the fixing plate and complete the splicing of a set of rubber flooring.

[0006] Furthermore, the synchronizing gear is located at the center of the rectangular plate in the middle of the splicing module; The two drive gears are centrally symmetrically mounted with respect to the synchronizing gear and are respectively located on the inner sidewall of the middle rectangular plate; The two grooves are installed symmetrically around the synchronous gear and are respectively located on the upper and lower sides inside the rectangular plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the two flexible racks are disposed in corresponding two sliding grooves and are meshed with the corresponding drive gear and synchronous gear, while one end of each rack is fixedly connected to a rectangular plate on one side. The two springs are centrally symmetrically mounted with respect to the synchronous gear, respectively located on opposite sides of the two flexible racks and parallel to the flexible racks; the springs elastically connect the rectangular plates in the middle and on one side.

[0008] Furthermore, each of the three rectangular plates of the splicing module has a mating groove on its inner side; Each of the rectangular plates at both ends of the splicing module has a corresponding mounting block on its inner side.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner grooves of the two continuous rectangular plates in the splicing module are slidably connected to the slider of the fixing plate; The inner groove of the rectangular plate at the other end of the splicing module matches the corresponding mounting block on another set of splicing modules, while a matching groove is provided on its outer side.

[0010] Furthermore, the rotating disk is located in the middle of the fixed plate and is rotatably connected to the fixed plate through a threaded hole in the middle of the fixed plate; The fixed plate and the rotating disk are at the same height.

[0011] Furthermore, the upper edge of the rotating disk is provided with an inverted conical ring; The fixing plate is provided with a conical annular groove that is adapted to the conical ring.

[0012] Furthermore, each of the four sides of the fixing plate is provided with two sliders; The slider is elastically slidably connected to the fixed plate by a spring and is installed inside the fixed plate; The upper corner of the inner end of the slider is an inclined structure that mates with the conical ring and is higher than the conical annular groove on the fixed plate.

[0013] Furthermore, both the splicing module and the fixing plate have a hollow layer at the bottom.

[0014] Another aspect of the present invention provides a method for constructing recyclable modular interlocking rubber flooring, which utilizes the aforementioned modular interlocking rubber flooring and includes the following steps: S1. Unfold the four sets of splicing modules and arrange them into a rectangular ring by splicing them end to end. Then, place the fixing plate into the middle rectangular ring. Rotate the rotating disk located in the middle of the fixing plate. The slider inside the fixing plate is pushed out to the four sides by the inclined surface at the lower end of the conical ring and splices with the matching groove on the splicing module to complete the assembly of the first set of rubber flooring. S2. Based on the first set of rubber flooring, the next set of rubber flooring is spliced ​​by the mounting blocks and mating grooves on the outside of the splicing module, and so on, until the entire rubber flooring is laid.
