Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of interior decoration materials and accessories, and in particular to a skirting board assembly that facilitates floor installation. Background Technology

[0002] Baseboards are a common decorative material in interior decoration. They are available in various materials such as stone, wood, and metal, and offer a wide range of design options and craftsmanship. They are typically installed at the junction of the wall and the floor to protect the wall, cover the gap between the wall and the floor, and beautify the space.

[0003] Existing baseboards typically consist of a baseboard body and a strip connecting it to the baseboard and used to secure it to the floor. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN214658544U, entitled "A Baseboard and its Installation Structure," includes a baseboard body and a strip. The baseboard body has a magnetic closure, and the strip is located on the underside of the baseboard body, with a snap-fit ​​mechanism between the strip and the body. This particular baseboard features a magnetic closure on its body, facilitating direct installation of the baseboard body to the bottom of the wall via magnetic attraction. The strip provides auxiliary fixation for the baseboard body and enhances the aesthetics of the connection between the baseboard body and the floor. The baseboard body is easy to install and remove without damaging the wall surface.

[0004] However, the existing technology still has the following drawbacks:

[0005] 1. Although existing skirting boards can provide some compression to the floor through the molding strip, they cannot solve the problem that when the floor expands and contracts with temperature, the joint between two adjacent floorboards will still be squeezed and curled upwards due to thermal expansion, or large gaps will appear due to cold contraction.

[0006] 2. The existing skirting board's external corner connection is not tight enough, resulting in an unsatisfactory finishing effect at the wall corner assembly point.

[0007] 3. Existing baseboards are prone to accumulating dust, dirt, and moisture on the decorative surface after installation, which can lead to mold growth at the base of the wall, making them difficult to clean and affecting the appearance. Utility Model Content

[0008] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a skirting board assembly that facilitates floor installation.

[0009] The purpose of this utility model is achieved by the following technical solution: a skirting board assembly that facilitates floor installation, comprising a skirting board body and a spring-loaded component. The skirting board body has an integrally formed wall-mounted surface, a mounting portion, and an exposed decorative surface. The skirting board body is connected to the wall through the wall-mounted surface, and the mounting portion is located below the decorative surface. The spring-loaded component is located at the mounting portion of the skirting board, and both ends of the spring-loaded component are spring-loaded ends, extending beyond the decorative surface and used to horizontally press against the side of the floor. The spring-loaded component adapts to the thermal expansion and contraction deformation of the floor through elastic deformation.

[0010] Furthermore, the mounting part has a groove formed along the length of the skirting board body, and the spring-loaded part has a buckle in the middle and is slidably limited in the groove through the buckle.

[0011] Furthermore, the surface of the card slot is provided with a groove, and the end of the card slot is provided with a locking port for the locking part of the spring-loaded component to slide into the card slot. The width of the locking part is greater than the width of the groove, and an outwardly bent connecting arm is provided between the locking part and the spring-loaded end. The width of the connecting arm is less than the width of the groove, so that when the locking part moves along the length direction of the card slot, the connecting arm can pass through the groove and slide along the groove.

[0012] Furthermore, several spring-loaded components can be adjusted and arranged along the length direction of the slot.

[0013] Furthermore, the spring-loaded end is bent and machined to have an arc-shaped pushing part for pushing the side of the floor.

[0014] Furthermore, the decorative surface is configured as an angled decorative surface, with the upper end of the angled decorative surface adhering to the wall and the lower end of the angled decorative surface connected to the floor.

[0015] Furthermore, the decorative surface is designed as a right-angled decorative surface, with the top surface of the right-angled decorative surface connected to the wall, and the side surface of the right-angled decorative surface connected vertically downwards from the outer edge of the top surface to the floor.

[0016] Furthermore, the decorative surface is a planar decorative surface, the inner edge of the planar decorative surface is connected to the wall, and the outer edge of the planar decorative surface is connected to and laid flat towards the floor.

[0017] Furthermore, the skirting board assembly that facilitates floor installation also includes a corner connector that seamlessly connects two skirting board bodies in a corner wall.

[0018] Furthermore, the skirting board assembly that facilitates floor installation also includes a corner connector that seamlessly connects two skirting board bodies at an outside corner wall.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] (1) The skirting board assembly provided in this application, which facilitates floor installation, is different from the previous implementation method where the skirting board body is pressed against the floor by a flat pressure strip connected to the lower end. In this application embodiment, the spring-loaded component continuously applies horizontal elastic pressure to the floor. The pressure of the spring-loaded component is used to buffer and suppress the warping of the floor caused by thermal expansion, and the spring-loaded component is used to compensate for the gaps caused by cold contraction, thereby solving the problem of thermal expansion and contraction of the floor. The skirting board body cooperates with the spring-loaded component through an integrally formed snap-fit ​​part, avoiding the loose assembly caused by the traditional split structure of the skirting board, and achieving the purpose of compact connection and quick installation design. The exposed part of the decorative surface is assembled with the wall and the floor at an angle, reducing the dust accumulation area, making it easier to clean, and improving the quality of life and aesthetics.

[0021] (2) By setting the decorative surface as a sloping decorative surface, the sloping decorative surface design guides water vapor to drain along the sloping surface or water channel, avoiding water accumulation and mold growth at the base of the wall. Moreover, the sloping decorative surface form is suitable for various decoration styles such as modern, minimalist, and traditional.

[0022] (3) By seamlessly splicing the ends of the two skirting board bodies to form a corner transition piece and a corner transition piece, it is used to seamlessly decorate the corner wall and the outside corner wall, thereby achieving no visible seams at the inside / outside corners, improving the corner finishing effect and enhancing the aesthetics.

[0036] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0037] First Embodiment

[0038] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a skirting board assembly that is easy to install on floor b is a common decorative material in interior decoration. Skirting boards are available in a variety of materials such as stone, wood, and metal, and offer a wide range of design options and styles. They are usually installed at the junction of the wall and the floor to protect the wall, cover the gap between the floor and the wall, and beautify the space.

[0039] The skirting board assembly that facilitates floor installation (b) consists of a skirting board body 10 and a spring-loaded component 20. The skirting board body 10 is manufactured using a one-piece molding process and includes a wall-mounted surface 101, a mounting portion 105, and a decorative surface exposed indoors. The wall-mounted surface 101 is fixed to the wall a by expansion bolts or adhesive. In this embodiment, the bottom of the decorative surface is bent inward to form a base plate, and the end of the base plate near the wall a is integrally connected to the wall-mounted surface 101. Specifically, the mounting portion 105 is integrally formed on the base plate of the decorative surface and the back side of the wall-mounted surface 101, and the mounting portion 105 has a slot 1051 inside.

[0040] The spring-loaded component 20 has a snap-fit ​​part 202 in the middle and spring-loaded ends 201 at both ends, which extend outwards and from the bottom of the decorative surface. When installing the baseboard assembly, the snap-fit ​​part 202 in the middle of the spring-loaded component 20 needs to be installed in the slot 1051, and the spring-loaded ends 201 at both ends of the spring-loaded component 20 need to be able to extend outwards from the bottom of the decorative surface. When installing the baseboard body 10 to the wall a, the wall-mounted surface 101 is fixedly connected to the wall a, and the upper end of the decorative surface is also close to the wall a. The back of the decorative surface, the base plate, and the wall-mounted surface 101 form a wire groove 108 for arranging wiring. After the baseboard is installed to the wall a, a closed wire groove is formed, which facilitates the routing of electrical wiring.

[0041] When installing flooring b, the sides of flooring b are pressed and assembled with the spring-loaded ends 201 at both ends of the spring-loaded component 20. This ensures that the spring-loaded ends 201 at both ends of the spring-loaded component 20 maintain an elastic pushing effect on flooring b. The elastic deformation of the spring-loaded component 20 accommodates the thermal expansion and contraction of the flooring b (for example, the spring-loaded component 20 uses its elastic deformation function to store energy when the flooring b expands thermally, and releases elastic pressure to compensate for the shrinkage gap when the flooring b contracts). Furthermore, the sides of flooring b also align with the lower end of the decorative surface. In addition, the ends of the spring-loaded ends 201 of the spring-loaded component 20 are stamped into arc-shaped push-out portions 2011 with a radius of 2mm. The push-out portion 2011 makes line contact with the side of flooring b. Therefore, the arc-shaped contact reduces the risk of scratches on the side of flooring b and minimizes friction damage; the line contact allows flooring b to maintain effective compression even with slight displacement, adapting to deformation.

[0042] Therefore, compared with the previous implementation method of using a flat pressure strip connected to the lower end of the skirting board body to press the floor b, the embodiment of this application continuously applies horizontal elastic pressure to the floor b through the spring-loaded member 20. The pressure of the spring-loaded member 20 is used to buffer and suppress the warping of the floor b caused by thermal expansion, and the spring-loaded member 20 is used to compensate for the gaps caused by cold contraction, thereby solving the problem of thermal expansion and contraction of the floor b. The skirting board body 10 cooperates with the spring-loaded member 20 through the integrally formed snap-fit ​​part 105, avoiding the assembly looseness caused by the traditional split structure of the skirting board assembly, and achieving the purpose of compact connection and quick installation design. The exposed part of the decorative surface is assembled with the wall a and the floor b at an angle, reducing the dust accumulation area and facilitating cleaning.

[0043] The assembly of the spring-loaded component 20 and the baseboard body 10 is further described. The slot 1051 of the locking part 105 extends along the length of the baseboard body 10, and the cross-section of the slot is approximately T-shaped. The spring-loaded component 20 is made of metal, and its locking part 202 matches the cross-section of the T-shaped slot 1051. Alternatively, in this embodiment, the locking part 202 can also be made of plastic. After being deformed by lateral compression, the locking part 202 is inserted into the slot 1051, and the elastic restoring force achieves locking with the slot 1051.

[0044] Specifically, the surface of the slot 1051 is provided with a groove 10511, and the end of the slot 1051 is provided with a mounting port 10512 for the snap-fit ​​portion 202 of the spring-loaded member 20 to be inserted into; a connecting arm 203 that bends outward and extends between the snap-fit ​​portion 202 and the spring-loaded end 201 of the spring-loaded member 20 is provided, and the width of the snap-fit ​​portion 202 is greater than the width of the groove 10511, while the width of the connecting arm 203 is smaller than the width of the groove 10511. For example, the width of the groove 10511 of the slot 1051 is 3mm, and the width of the mounting port 10512 is 5mm; the width of the snap-fit ​​portion 202 of the spring-loaded member 20 is 4.5mm, and the width of the connecting arm 203 is 2.5mm.

[0045] When installing the spring-loaded component 20 into the slot 1051, align its latching part 202 with the opening 10511 of the slot 1051. Since the width of the connecting arm 203 is smaller than the opening width of the slot 10511, the connecting arm 203 can directly pass through the slot 10511 and slide along the slot when the latching part is installed into the slot. Then, insert the latching part 202 into the slot 1051 from the direction of the latching port 10512 and slide it laterally to the installation position. By designing the width of the latching part 202 to be greater than the opening width of the slot 10511, it is possible to allow the latching part 202 to slide and adjust its installation position in the direction of the slot 1051, while also ensuring that the spring-loaded component 20 cannot be vertically dislodged from the slot 10511, preventing the spring-loaded component 20 from falling off during long-term use. Through the latching connection between the latching part 202 and the slot 1051, the installation or replacement of the spring-loaded component 20 can be completed without tools, realizing the quick assembly and disassembly of the baseboard assembly.

[0046] Several spring-loaded components 20 can be detachably / adjustably installed along the length of the slot 1051; for example, one spring-loaded component 20 can be set every 300mm along the length of the slot 1051, and the spacing between adjacent spring-loaded components 20 is adjustable. Each spring-loaded component 20 is independently snapped in and can be replaced individually when damaged. Therefore, arranging spring-loaded components 20 at multiple points allows for multi-point compression of the floor b side panel, avoiding local stress concentration, which is suitable for laying large-span floor b; and local damage only requires replacement of the corresponding spring-loaded component 20, reducing maintenance costs and improving ease of maintenance.

[0047] In this embodiment, the decorative surface is designed as a sloping decorative surface 102. For example, the decorative surface forms a 45° angle with the wall a, the upper end of the sloping decorative surface 102 is attached to the wall a, and the lower end of the sloping decorative surface 102 extends to the surface of the floor b and forms a 3mm wide edge. Therefore, the sloping decorative surface 102 design guides moisture to drain along the sloping surface or water channel, preventing water accumulation and mold growth at the base of the wall. Moreover, the sloping decorative surface 102 is suitable for various decoration styles such as modern, minimalist, and traditional.

[0048] This application embodiment provides a skirting board assembly for easy installation of floor b, which also includes an inside corner adapter 106 and an outside corner adapter 107. Specifically, the ends of the beveled decorative surfaces 102 of the two skirting board bodies 10 are processed with a 45° bevel. By embedding magnetic pieces at the ends of the two skirting board bodies 10 or directly splicing them together, and by seamlessly installing the two skirting board bodies 10 on the inside corner wall of wall a through the inside corner adapter 106, and by seamlessly installing the two skirting board bodies 10 on the outside corner wall of wall a through the outside corner adapter 107, no visible seams are achieved at the inside / outside corners of the wall, improving the corner finishing effect and enhancing the aesthetics.

[0049] Second Embodiment

[0050] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment lies in the shape and structure design of the decorative surface; the rest are the same, and the same parts will not be described again here.

[0051] Specifically, such as Figure 6-8 As shown, the decorative surface in this embodiment is a right-angled decorative surface 103 integrally formed from a top surface 1031 and a side surface 1032. The top surface 1031 of the right-angled decorative surface 103 is perpendicularly connected to the wall a, and the side surface 1032 of the right-angled decorative surface 103 is connected to the floor b, which is vertically downwards from the outer edge of the top surface 1031. The outer edges of the top surface 1031 and the side surface 1032 have a 1.5mm chamfer. This right-angled decorative surface 103 provides a larger space for the cable tray 108, making it suitable for interior decoration with a large amount of wiring. Furthermore, the right-angled decorative surface 103 is compatible with various decoration styles, including modern, minimalist, and traditional styles.

[0052] Third Embodiment

[0053] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment lies in the shape and structure design of the decorative surface; the rest are the same, and the same parts will not be described again here.

[0054] Specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, the skirting board body 10 in this embodiment is generally L-shaped, with a flat decorative surface 104. The end of the flat decorative surface 104 closest to the wall a has an integrally formed, downwardly bent wall-mounted surface 101. A slot 1051 and a groove 108 are provided on the back of the flat decorative surface 104 and the wall-mounted surface 101. In this embodiment, the flat decorative surface 104 is parallel to the floor b, so that its inner edge connects to the wall a, and its outer edge connects to and lies flat towards the floor b. The spring-loaded element 20 on its slot 1051 pushes the side of the floor b. This design of the flat decorative surface 104 is suitable for minimalist style decoration, and its form also adapts to various decoration styles such as modern, minimalist, and traditional.

[0055] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
