Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building materials technology, specifically a waterproof and mildew-proof baseboard. Background Technology

[0002] In interior decoration, baseboards are one of the most common structures. Most existing baseboards are made of wood or stone, with wood being the most widely used. However, wood baseboards are prone to absorbing water, swelling, mold, and deformation when exposed to a humid environment for a long time. Although existing wood baseboards have waterproof surfaces, they have the following problems: (1) The joints are glued with glass glue, but the glue joints are prone to mold, and wood itself is very prone to mold due to material defects, resulting in a short service life and high maintenance costs; (2) When installing baseboards, the back of the baseboards are also fixed to the wall with glue or concrete. On the one hand, the glue is prone to mold, and on the other hand, once the glue or concrete has solidified, the baseboard cannot be moved. When a baseboard is damaged, all the glue or concrete needs to be removed before the damaged baseboard can be removed, making replacement inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a waterproof and mildew-proof baseboard, which solves the problems of easy mold growth, inconvenient installation, and inconvenience in the current baseboard installation process.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A waterproof and mildew-proof baseboard includes a baseboard body and an installation component for mounting the baseboard body on a wall. The baseboard body includes a base layer, a waterproof layer, and a decorative layer arranged sequentially. The base layer is a closed-cell foam structure with an inorganic mildew inhibitor added inside. The baseboard body has snap-on interfaces at both ends, and an installation slot is provided on the back of the base layer, in which the installation component is movably snapped.

[0006] Preferably, the snap-fit ​​interface includes a male snap and a female groove, with a trapezoidal elastic sealing strip embedded at the front end of the male snap.

[0007] The above technical solution uses a male and female snap-fit ​​connection between adjacent baseplate bodies, avoiding the need for adhesive at the joint and thus preventing mold growth. By incorporating an elastic sealing strip at the front end of the male snap-fit, the sealing at the joint is improved, preventing water from seeping into the baseplate body through the gap. Furthermore, the elasticity of the sealing strip ensures the male snap-fit ​​is more securely engaged in the female groove, enhancing the stability of the connection between adjacent baseplate bodies.

[0008] Preferably, the mounting component is made of aluminum alloy and includes an expansion screw, a limiting ring, and a retaining plate. The limiting ring is fixed to one end of the expansion screw. The retaining plate is square with a through hole in its center. The inner wall of the through hole has an annular groove, and the limiting ring is movably disposed within the annular groove. There are two mounting slots, respectively located at both ends of the back of the base layer. Each mounting slot includes a slot that matches the retaining plate, sliding cavities located inside the base layer and at both ends of the slot, and sliding holes located on the back of the base layer and at both ends of the slot. The sliding cavities communicate with the slots, and their heights are the same as the slot heights. The sliding holes communicate with the sliding cavities. After the retaining plate is inserted into the slot, it can slide towards the sliding cavities on both sides, while the expansion screw can slide within the sliding holes. Furthermore, the height of the sliding holes is greater than or equal to the diameter of the expansion screw, and the height of the sliding holes is less than the height of the sliding cavities.

[0009] The above technical solution involves drilling holes in the wall and inserting expansion screws during the installation of the baseboard body. Next, the retaining plate is aligned, and the baseboard body is inserted into the retaining plate through the slot. Then, the baseboard body is moved horizontally, allowing the retaining plate to insert into the sliding cavity, while the sliding hole moves along the expansion screws. The baseboard body can also be fine-tuned by moving it horizontally, allowing adjacent baseboard bodies to be connected via a snap-fit ​​interface.

[0010] Preferably, the waterproof layer is an SBS modified bitumen membrane or a TPO polymer film with a thickness of 0.5-1.2 mm, achieving full-coverage waterproofing.

[0011] Preferably, the decorative layer is a PVC wear-resistant film or a UV coating, with wood grain or stone grain texture pressed onto the surface, and a thickness of 0.1-0.3mm, which improves wear resistance and decorative effect.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] (1) The base layer adopts a closed-cell structure and is fully covered with a waterproof layer to effectively block the path of water penetration. Adding an inorganic anti-mildew agent to the base layer can reduce the mold growth on the baseboard itself.

[0014] (2) When installing the baseboard body, first fix the mounting bracket to the wall, and then snap the baseboard body onto the mounting bracket. No glue or concrete is needed, which makes it easy to install and replace. Moreover, after the baseboard body is connected to the mounting bracket, the position of the baseboard body can be finely adjusted so that adjacent baseboard bodies can be snapped together.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] Please see Figures 1-6 A waterproof and mildew-proof baseboard includes a baseboard body 1 and an installation component 2 for mounting the baseboard body 1 on a wall. The baseboard body 1 includes a base layer 11, a waterproof layer 12, and a decorative layer 13 arranged sequentially.

[0025] The base layer 11 is made of high-density foamed polyvinyl chloride or modified polypropylene material with a thickness of 8-12mm. An inorganic anti-mold agent is added internally, and the interior features a uniformly distributed closed-cell foam structure with a density ≥0.6g / cm³, exhibiting compressive strength and low water absorption. The inorganic anti-mold agent is 2% nano-zinc oxide anti-mold masterbatch, which provides anti-mold protection.

[0026] Furthermore, the closed-cell foam structure, where each bubble is completely encased in a polymer wall and adjacent bubbles are not interconnected, forms a physical barrier layer. This provides structural support while preventing liquid water from penetrating and cutting off the path for water vapor penetration. The closed-cell foam structure can be achieved through physical foaming, where supercritical CO2 / N2 is injected into molten PVC / PP, followed by a sudden pressure release, causing the gas to expand and form closed cells.

[0027] The waterproof layer 12 is an SBS modified bitumen roll layer or a TPO polymer film with a thickness of 0.5-1.2mm, achieving full-coverage waterproofing.

[0028] The decorative layer 13 is a PVC wear-resistant film or UV coating, with wood grain or stone grain texture pressed on the surface. The thickness is 0.1-0.3mm, which improves wear resistance and also enhances aesthetics, thus improving the decorative effect.

[0029] In summary, the base layer adopts a closed-cell structure and is fully enclosed with a waterproof layer, effectively blocking the path of moisture penetration. Furthermore, the addition of an inorganic anti-mold agent to the base layer reduces mold growth on the baseboard itself.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] Both ends of the baseboard body 1 are provided with snap-on interfaces, and adjacent baseboard bodies 1 are snapped together through snap-on interfaces. The back of the base layer 11 is provided with a mounting slot 3, and the mounting component 2 is movably snapped into the mounting slot 3.

[0032] The snap-fit ​​interface includes a male snap-fit ​​4 fixed to one end of the baseboard body 1 and protruding outwards, and a female groove 5 opened at the other end of the baseboard body 1. A trapezoidal elastic sealing strip 6 is embedded at the front end of the male snap-fit ​​4. Adjacent baseboard bodies 1 are snapped together through the cooperation of the male snap-fit ​​4 and the female groove 5, avoiding the need for adhesive at the joint and thus preventing mold growth. By setting the elastic sealing strip 6 at the front end of the male snap-fit, the sealing performance at the joint is improved, preventing water from seeping into the baseboard body along the gap. Furthermore, the elasticity of the sealing strip 6 allows the male snap-fit ​​4 to be more stably secured in the female groove 5, improving the stability of the connection between adjacent baseboard bodies.

[0033] The mounting component 2 is made of aluminum alloy and includes an expansion screw 21, a limiting ring 22, and a retaining plate 23. The limiting ring 22 is fixed to one end of the expansion screw 21. The retaining plate 23 is square and has a through hole 24 in its center. The inner wall of the through hole 24 has an annular groove 25, and the limiting ring 22 is movably disposed in the annular groove 25. There are two mounting slots 3, which are respectively located at both ends of the back of the base layer 11. The mounting slot 3 includes a slot 31 that matches the retaining plate, a sliding cavity 32 located inside the base layer and at both ends of the slot, and a sliding hole 33 located on the back of the base layer and at both ends of the slot. The sliding cavity 32 communicates with the slot 31, and the height of the sliding cavity 32 is the same as the height of the slot 31. The sliding hole 33 communicates with the sliding cavity 32. After the retaining plate 23 is inserted into the slot 31, the retaining plate 23 can slide to the sliding cavities 32 on both sides, and at the same time, the expansion screw 21 can slide in the sliding hole 33.

[0034] Additionally, the height of the sliding hole 33 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the expansion screw 21 so that the expansion screw 21 can slide within the sliding hole. The height of the sliding hole 33 is less than the height of the sliding cavity 32 to prevent the retaining plate 23 from falling off from the sliding hole 33.

[0035] When installing the baseboard body 1, first drill holes in the wall, then insert expansion screws 21. Next, straighten the retaining plate 23 and align the slot 31 on the baseboard body 1 with the retaining plate 23. Then, insert the retaining plate 23 into the slot 31, and then move the baseboard body 1 horizontally so that the retaining plate 23 is inserted into the sliding cavity 32. At the same time, the sliding hole 33 also moves along the expansion screw 21, thereby fixing the baseboard body 1 to the wall. It should be noted that the retaining plate 23 is movably connected to the limiting ring 22 on the expansion screw 21 through the annular groove 24. The retaining plate can be rotated to align the retaining plate 23 with the slot 31 on the baseboard body. Also, the expansion screw 21 needs to be fully inserted into the drilled hole so that the retaining plate 23 is tightly attached to the wall. After the retaining plate is fully inserted into the slot, the baseboard body 1 can contact the wall. Finally, the baseboard body can be finely adjusted by moving it horizontally so that adjacent baseboard bodies can be connected through the snap-fit ​​interface.

[0036] It should be noted that the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
