Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a leveler, in particular to an ergonomic leveler which is stable and fits the body, convenient to hold and can be rotated with little effort. Background Art
[0002] In order to ensure that the tiles can remain flat and not uneven when attached to the ground or wall, a leveler is generally used in the process of attaching the tiles. The leveler clamps and presses two adjacent tiles to ensure that the laying height and position of the two adjacent tiles are consistent. Among them, the existing leveler 80 is as follows Fig.10 As shown, there are a base 81 and a spin-on cover 82, the base 81 is provided with a clamping plate 811, a connecting plate 812 and a combining rod 813, the connecting plate 812 connects the clamping plate 811 and the combining rod 813, the spin-on cover 82 can be rotatably combined with the combining rod 813 of the base 81, so as to press the two tiles between the base 81 and the spin-on cover 82; further, in order to reduce the weight of the spin-on cover 82, the existing leveler 80 designs the spin-on cover 82 into a hollow structure, so that the spin-on cover 82 forms a plurality of spaced ribs 83 in the middle section, each of the ribs 83 is an inclined straight strip body, the user can rotate the spin-on cover 82 relative to the base 81 by pressing the ribs 83 with his fingers, and then adjust the distance between the spin-on cover 82 and the base 81, so as to clamp the two tiles.
[0003] However, although the existing leveler 80 can provide a leveling effect by pressing against two adjacent tiles, please refer to the following Fig.11 As shown, when the user rotates the spin-on cover 82 of the existing leveler 80, since each of the ribs 83 of the spin-on cover 82 is a straight strip, the user's bent fingers cannot be firmly and tightly pressed against each of the corresponding ribs 83, and a gap is easily generated between the fingers and the corresponding ribs 83, so that the user cannot conveniently hold and rotate the spin-on cover 82, and must further apply additional force to hold the spin-on cover 82 and rotate it relative to the base 81, which is relatively inconvenient and laborious to use. Since the user's fingers cannot be firmly attached to the corresponding ribs 83, the user must hold the ribs 83 at a specific angle, such as from top to bottom, to increase the contact area between the fingers and the ribs 83. However, the specific holding angle is not ergonomic, so that the user may feel uncomfortable and unable to rotate the spin-on cover 82 smoothly during the process of applying force to rotate the spin-on cover 82, which increases the inconvenience of operation. Since the existing leveler 80 has the above-mentioned problems and shortcomings, the existing leveler 80 has room for improvement. Utility Model Content
