[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0025] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the leveling assembly provided in this embodiment includes an insert 1 and a connector 2. The insert 1 is flat and has a notch 3 at the bottom of the insert 1. The connector 2 is located at the top of the insert 1 and is fixedly connected to the insert 1.

[0026] In this embodiment, the leveling component includes an insert 1 and a connector 2. Taking the tile leveling scene in furniture decoration as an example, when in use, first place the leveling rod 7 at the notch 3 of the insert 1, and place the two tiles to be leveled on the positioning planes on both sides of the flat insert 1 respectively. The insert 1 passes through the gap between the two tiles and leaks out of the ground. The leveling is performed in conjunction with the leveling accessories of the leveler to complete the leveling and paving of the tiles. When the leveler is removed, the leveling component is tilted away from the notch 3, so that the leveling rod 7 is detached from the notch 3 of the insert 1, and the leveling component can be taken out of the gap with the help of external force.

[0027] Since the flat structure of the insert 1 can greatly reduce the thickness of the insert 1 while ensuring the strength, the leveler containing the leveling component can be used in leveling scenarios that require smaller gaps.

[0028] It should be noted that the leveling assembly provided in this embodiment can also be used in other scenarios such as glass leveling and wooden board leveling.

[0029] It should be noted that the shape of the notch 3 located at the bottom of the insert 1 can be a U-shaped opening and its variations.

[0030] In a specific embodiment, the insert 1 or the connector 2 is provided with an extraction port 4 for taking out the leveling component after leveling.

[0031] When the leveling work is completed and the leveler needs to be removed, the user can use a suitable hook to hook the extraction port 4, apply force to the extraction port 4 along the direction of the gap between the two leveled tiles, so that the leveling rod 7 is disengaged from the notch 3 of the insert 1, and then the leveling component is taken out; or after using other methods to separate the leveling rod 7 from the insert 1, use the hook to hook the extraction port 4 to take out the leveling component.

[0032] It should be noted that the extraction port 4 can be a through hole opened in the insert 1 or the connector 2, and the through hole is preferably a round hole; it can also be a notch located at the edge of the insert 1 or the connector 2.

[0033] It should be noted that the extraction port 4 is not necessary and can be replaced by a rope or chain set on the insert 1 or the connector 2.

[0034] In a specific embodiment, the insert 1 and the connector 2 are detachably connected.

[0035] In this way, the insert 1 and the connector 2 are two independent parts, which is convenient for independent production when the insert 1 and the connector 2 are made of different materials. When the insert 1 is made of metal, the thickness of the insert 1 can be reduced while ensuring the strength, so as to be suitable for leveling scenes requiring smaller gaps. With the connector 2 made of plastic, the production cost can be reduced while ensuring that the leveler remains functional.

[0036] It should be noted that the insert 1 and the connector 2 may be made of the same material or may be an integrated structure.

[0037] It should be noted that, although in the present embodiment, the fixed connection method of the insert 1 and the connector 2 is splicing, in practice, the fixed connection method of the insert 1 and the connector 2 can also be achieved by various methods such as adhesive bonding, hot melt connection, ultrasonic welding, etc.

[0038] Furthermore, the inserting piece 1 is provided with at least two first through holes 61 for the protruding short rods 5 of the connecting member 2 to pass through, and the number of the first through holes 61 is the same as the number of the protruding short rods 5 .

[0039] A first through hole 61 is provided on the plug 1, and the protruding short rod 5 of the connecting member 2 is passed through the first through hole 61 to complete the fixed connection between the plug 1 and the connecting member 2. The production process of the through hole and the protruding short rod 5 is simple and easy to operate. The design of multiple first through holes 61 and the same number of protruding short rods 5 can increase the stability of the fixed connection.

[0040] Furthermore, the thickness of the insert 1 is not greater than 0.35 mm.

[0041] When the insert 1 is made of metal, the thickness of the insert 1 can be less than 0.35 mm while ensuring strength, which is suitable for leveling scenarios requiring smaller gaps. It should be noted that with the advancement of technology, the thickness of the metal insert 1 can be further reduced.

[0042] When the whole leveler is assembled, the leveler includes the above-mentioned leveling assembly, the leveling rod 7 and the leveling accessories. The leveling rod 7 is placed at the notch 3 and is perpendicular to the plane where the insert 1 is located.

[0043] In this embodiment, taking the tile leveling scene in furniture decoration as an example, when in use, first place the leveling rod 7 at the notch 3 of the insert 1, and place the two tiles to be leveled on the positioning planes on both sides of the flat insert 1 respectively. The insert 1 passes through the gap between the two tiles and leaks out of the ground, and is leveled with the leveling accessories of the leveler to complete the leveling and paving of the tiles; when the leveler is removed, the leveling component is tilted away from the notch 3, so that the leveling rod 7 is detached from the notch 3 of the insert 1, and the leveling component can be taken out of the gap with the help of external force.

[0044] It should be noted that the leveling rod 7 can be a cylinder or a polygonal column.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, a groove for locking with the insert piece 1 is provided in the middle of the leveling rod 7 .

[0046] In a specific embodiment, the leveling accessory is a screw cap 8 , a protruding short rod 5 is provided at the bottom of the connecting member 2 , a screw rod 9 is provided at the top of the connecting member 2 , and the screw cap 8 is provided with a thread matching the screw rod 9 .

[0047] When in use, when the leveling rod 7 is placed under two tiles and the insert 1 is located between the gaps of the two tiles, the screw cap 8 is used for leveling. The specific steps are: screw the screw cap 8 from the end of the screw rod 9 of the connector 2 away from the insert 1 until the bottom of the screw cap 8 presses the upper surfaces of the two tiles, completing the leveling and paving of the tiles. The screw cap 8 is common in the market, with many types and a wide range of choices.

[0048] Furthermore, a skirt is provided on one side of the screw cap 8 close to the insert 1, and the bottom surface of the skirt is a plane. The design of the screw cap 8 skirt can increase the contact area between it and the tile to be leveled. The bottom surface of the skirt is a plane, and when the two tiles are pressed, a force perpendicular to the plane where the tiles are located is generated toward the bottom surface of the tiles, and the force perpendicular to the plane where the tiles are located toward the top surface of the tiles is generated in cooperation with the leveling rod 7. The forces from both sides level the tiles.

[0049] Furthermore, the leveling assembly also includes a fixing member 10 and a shell 11 sleeved on the fixing member 10 and the outer periphery of the connecting member 2. The shell 11 is provided with a cylindrical section 12 sleeved on the outer periphery of the end of the screw 9 connected to the connecting member 2. The side wall of the cylindrical section 12 is provided with two symmetrical openings 13. The cylindrical section 12 is provided with a second through hole 62 for the screw 9 to pass through. After the screw 9 passes through the second through hole 62, the shell 11 is fixedly connected to the fixing member 10 and the connecting member 2 by pressing, and the cylindrical section 12 abuts against the step 14 at the end of the screw 9 connected to the connecting member 2.

[0050] The shape of the fixing member 10 can be the same as that of the connecting member 2. The outer shell 11 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixing member 10 and the connecting member 2, which is not only beautiful, but also allows the fixing member 10 to press the connection between the connecting member 2 and the plug-in piece 1, thereby increasing the stability of the fixed connection between the connecting member 2 and the plug-in piece 1. When in use, the outer shell 11 passes through the screw 9 through the second through hole 62 and is fixedly connected to the fixing member 10 and the connecting member 2 by pressing. The symmetrical openings 13 on the side wall of the cylindrical section 12 are designed to make the above-mentioned operation of locking the outer shell 11 easier. The cylindrical section 12 abuts against the step 14 at the end of the screw 9 connected to the connecting member 2, thereby effectively preventing the locked outer shell 11 from falling off from the screw 9.

[0051] In another specific embodiment, the leveling accessory is a wedge-shaped plug, the connecting member 2 is a door-shaped structure, the two sides of the door-shaped structure are fixedly connected to the plug 1, the width of the wedge-shaped plug is smaller than the distance between the two sides of the door-shaped structure, and a slot is provided on the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped plug.

[0052] When in use, when the leveling rod 7 is placed under two tiles and the insert 1 is located between the gaps of the two tiles, the specific steps for leveling with the wedge-shaped insert are: the bottom surface of the wedge-shaped insert is a plane, and when the two tiles are respectively placed on the positioning planes on the opposite sides of the door-shaped structure, the wedge-shaped insert is wedged in and fixed in the door-shaped structure, and the bottom surface of the wedge-shaped insert is pressed and fitted with the top surfaces of the two tiles, so that the top surfaces of the two tiles are flush with the bottom surface of the wedge-shaped insert, and the leveling and paving of the tiles are completed.
