Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic tile technology, and more specifically, to a ceramic tile with wear-resistant properties. Background Technology

[0002] Ceramic tiles are a type of acid- and alkali-resistant building or decorative material made from refractory metal oxides and semi-metal oxides through grinding, mixing, pressing, glazing, and sintering. Their raw materials are mostly clay and quartz sand, mixed under high temperature and compression, resulting in high hardness. The wear resistance and slip resistance of ceramic tiles are generally important indicators of their quality.

[0003] However, existing tiles have the following problems when used:

[0004] Traditional ceramic tiles rely on the overall material for wear resistance. In high-wear areas (such as shopping mall aisles and industrial floors), long-term friction can easily cause the surface glaze to peel off and the tile to break, requiring frequent replacement and resulting in high maintenance costs. Furthermore, the single rigid structure is difficult to absorb the impact energy from high-frequency foot traffic, making it prone to cracking or even shattering. This is especially problematic in residential and public spaces, affecting safety and lifespan. Secondly, conventional ceramic tiles are connected by adhesives or simple clips, and long-term use can lead to stress concentration, causing joint cracking and tile displacement, affecting the aesthetics and integrity of the installation. When the surface is worn or partially damaged, the entire tile needs to be replaced, which is a complex and costly process, resulting in low maintenance efficiency, especially in large-area installations.

[0005] This invention can enhance the stability of tile splicing, efficiently absorb impact energy and reduce noise, precisely strengthen wear resistance, and facilitate the replacement and maintenance of components. Utility Model Content

[0006] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art and provide a ceramic tile with wear-resistant function.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a ceramic tile with wear-resistant function, comprising: a lower ceramic tile, an upper ceramic tile being detachably embedded and connected to the upper end of the lower ceramic tile, a shock-absorbing layer being fixedly installed on the upper end of the lower ceramic tile, the shock-absorbing layer being located between the lower ceramic tile and the upper ceramic tile, and a second shock-absorbing groove being formed in the middle of the shock-absorbing layer.

[0008] A further preferred embodiment: extension blocks are fixedly installed at both the left and right ends of the lower ceramic tile. The extension blocks are distributed vertically. The extension block at one end of the lower ceramic tile is fixedly installed at the bottom of that end, while the extension block at the other end is installed at the top.

[0009] A further preferred embodiment: the upper end of the extension block is provided with several connecting grooves, and the bottom of another extension block is fixedly installed with several connecting strips, the connecting strips being matched with the connecting grooves.

[0010] A further preferred embodiment: a shock-absorbing groove 1 is provided in the middle of the lower ceramic tile, the shock-absorbing groove 1 is located below the shock-absorbing groove 2 and the two grooves are the same size, and both the shock-absorbing groove 1 and the shock-absorbing groove 2 are fixedly connected to the upper ceramic tile.

[0011] A further preferred embodiment: the upper ceramic tile has slots around its upper perimeter and in the center, and wear-resistant strips are embedded in the slots.

[0012] A further preferred embodiment: the slot has screw holes at both the left and right ends, and the screw holes are threadedly connected to the wear-resistant strip.

[0013] A further preferred embodiment: an absorbent block is fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper ceramic tile, and the absorbent block is sequentially embedded in the second damping groove and the first damping groove for fixed connection.

[0014] A further preferred embodiment: the lower ceramic tile is the bottom layer, which is a high-strength aggregate layer; the surface of the upper ceramic tile is a wear-resistant glaze layer; and the shock-absorbing layer is a tough transition layer.

[0015] Beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. By incorporating extension blocks, connecting grooves, and connecting strips, adjacent tiles can achieve an "interlocking" splicing through staggered extension blocks. That is, the connecting strip at the bottom of one tile's extension block embeds into the connecting groove at the top of another tile's extension block, forming a tight mechanical lock. This structure allows the stress to be evenly distributed to adjacent tiles when the tiles are subjected to lateral force after installation, through the interlocking surfaces of the connecting strips and connecting grooves. This prevents individual tiles from shifting or cracking due to uneven force, significantly improving the overall stability of the paving. It simplifies the construction process while enhancing connection strength, making it particularly suitable for maintaining the integrity of the tile system in high-traffic or vibration environments. In addition, the vertical distribution of the extension blocks can hide splicing gaps, improving the aesthetics of the floor, and allowing the tiles to expand and contract slightly in temperature-changing environments, reducing the risk of joint cracking caused by thermal expansion and contraction. It balances practicality and durability, enabling the tiles to maintain a long-term reliable paving effect in high-frequency use scenarios such as commercial and industrial applications.

[0017] 2. By incorporating a shock-absorbing layer, shock-absorbing groove one, shock-absorbing groove two, and an absorbent block, the shock-absorbing layer serves as a tough transition layer. The shock-absorbing groove two within the layer is vertically connected to the shock-absorbing groove one of the underlying tile, forming a stress dispersion channel in the structure. When the tile surface is impacted, the double-layered grooves guide energy to diffuse outwards through geometric deformation, preventing stress concentration. The absorbent block, embedded in the groove and made of elastic materials such as rubber, absorbs a large amount of impact energy through its own compression, torsion, and other deformations, converting mechanical energy into internal energy and reducing the peak impact stress. This dual mechanism of "structural dispersion + material energy absorption" can effectively reduce damage to the tile from falling heavy objects and high-frequency footsteps, while also reducing noise such as footsteps and improving environmental comfort. In addition, the embedded connection between the absorbent block and the groove strengthens the integrity of the upper and lower structure, preventing delamination caused by long-term impact. Furthermore, the buffering effect of the elastic material can alleviate the rigid contact between the tile and the substrate, adapting to slight settlement or temperature-induced displacement and extending the service life of the tile.

[0018] 3. By incorporating slots, screw holes, and wear-resistant strips, slots are created on the surface of the upper tile and high-hardness wear-resistant strips (such as silicon carbide or metal alloys) are embedded within them. This allows high-wear areas (such as channels and edges) to be directly borne by the wear-resistant strips, achieving a Mohs hardness of 8-9. This significantly improves scratch resistance and extends the tile's lifespan. The threaded connection between the screw holes and screws ensures that the wear-resistant strips do not loosen or fall off under high-frequency friction, while also allowing for the individual removal and replacement of locally worn parts without replacing the entire tile, greatly reducing maintenance costs. Furthermore, the trapezoidal design of the slots and wear-resistant strips enhances the locking effect and further prevents edge warping. Additionally, the wear-resistant strips can be selected in colors or textures different from the main tile body, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics.

[0019] 4. In summary, this type of wear-resistant ceramic tile incorporates an extension block, connecting groove, connecting strip, shock-absorbing layer, shock-absorbing groove one, shock-absorbing groove two, absorbent block, slot, screw hole, and wear-resistant strip. The extension block, connecting groove, and connecting strip form an interlocking mechanical splicing structure, enhancing overall rigidity while concealing seams. It adapts to temperature changes and prevents tile displacement, improving installation stability and aesthetics. The shock-absorbing layer, double-layer shock-absorbing groove, and absorbent block form a composite buffer system. The elastic absorbent block absorbs impact energy through deformation, and the groove structure guides stress diffusion. This dual mechanism reduces impact damage and noise, strengthens the overall connection between upper and lower layers, and embeds high-hardness wear-resistant strips in vulnerable areas, achieving localized reinforcement through screw locking. Wear parts can be replaced individually, reducing maintenance costs. Furthermore, it supports personalized color and texture designs, balancing functionality and aesthetics.

[0024] The following will refer to the appendix in the embodiments of this utility model. Figures 1-3 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3In this embodiment of the present invention, a wear-resistant ceramic tile includes: a lower ceramic tile 1, an upper ceramic tile 2 detachably embedded and connected to the upper end of the lower ceramic tile 1, a shock-absorbing layer 3 fixedly installed on the upper end of the lower ceramic tile 1, the shock-absorbing layer 3 being located between the lower ceramic tile 1 and the upper ceramic tile 2, a shock-absorbing groove 301 being formed in the middle of the shock-absorbing layer 3, and extension blocks 101 fixedly installed on both the left and right ends of the lower ceramic tile 1, the extension blocks 101 being distributed vertically, the extension block 101 at one end of the lower ceramic tile 1 being fixedly installed at the bottom of that end, and the extension block 101 at the other end being installed at the top, the upper end of the extension block 101 having several connecting grooves 102, and the bottom of the other extension block 101 being fixedly installed with several connecting strips 103, the connecting strips 103 and the connecting grooves 102 being connected. 02. The lower tile 1 has a shock-absorbing groove 104 in the middle, located below a second shock-absorbing groove 301, and both are the same size. Both grooves 104 and 301 are fixedly connected to the upper tile 2. The lower tile 1 is the bottom layer, a high-strength aggregate layer. The upper tile 2 has a wear-resistant glaze layer, and the shock-absorbing layer 3 is a tough transition layer. Through the extension blocks 101 at both ends of the lower tile 1 (one end extending to the top, the other to the bottom), the connecting strips 103 of adjacent tiles are inserted into the connecting grooves 102 to achieve horizontal splicing and form an integral paving structure. The upper tile 2 is embedded and connected to the lower tile 1 through the shock-absorbing layer 3. The shock-absorbing grooves 104 and 301 are aligned and fixed to the bottom of the upper tile 2. To ensure a tight bond between the three layers, when the tile surface is impacted, the wear-resistant glaze layer of the upper tile 2 first bears the pressure, transferring the force to the shock-absorbing layer 3. The shock-absorbing layer 3 absorbs some energy through the elastic deformation of the second shock-absorbing groove 301. Simultaneously, the first shock-absorbing groove 104 and the second shock-absorbing groove 301 work together to further disperse stress, reducing direct damage to the upper tile 2 and the lower tile 1. The high-strength aggregate layer of the lower tile 1 provides stable support, preventing tile cracking due to base deformation. The wear-resistant glaze layer (containing high-hardness particles) of the upper tile 2 directly resists friction and wear, such as from shoe soles. The upper tile 2 and the lower tile 1 are connected by an embedded connection; if the surface is worn or damaged, the upper tile 2 can be replaced individually without removing the entire tile, reducing costs. With low maintenance costs, the combination of double-layer shock-absorbing grooves (shock-absorbing groove 104 and shock-absorbing groove 2 301) and a resilient shock-absorbing layer 3 effectively absorbs impact energy and reduces noise (such as footsteps), making it suitable for noise-sensitive locations (such as residences and libraries). The lower tile 1 uses a high-strength aggregate layer to ensure support, and the groove structure of the shock-absorbing layer 3 reduces material usage, achieving lightweight while maintaining overall strength, reducing transportation and installation costs. The staggered design of the extension block 101 (top at one end and bottom at the other end), together with the connecting strip 103 and the connecting groove 102, allows adjacent tiles to form an interlocking structure, enhancing the overall stability after installation, reducing the risk of tile displacement, and improving maintenance convenience and impact resistance while ensuring wear resistance.

[0026] In this embodiment of the invention, slots 201 are provided around the upper perimeter and center of the upper ceramic tile 2. Wear-resistant strips are embedded within the slots 201. Screw holes 202 are provided at both ends of the slots 201, and these screw holes 202 are threaded into the wear-resistant strips. The wear-resistant strips are embedded in the slots 201 on the surface of the upper ceramic tile 2. The material is typically a high-hardness material (such as silicon carbide, corundum, or metal alloy), and it directly contacts the friction source (such as shoe soles or trolley wheels). The slots 201, located around the upper perimeter and center of the upper ceramic tile 2, form grooves for fixing the wear-resistant strips, ensuring stable positioning. The screw holes 202... 2 is located on the left and right sides inside the slot 201. It is connected to the wear-resistant strip by screws and threads to prevent the wear-resistant strip from falling off due to friction or impact. If the wear-resistant strip is severely worn in a certain area, the screws can be removed and a single wear-resistant strip can be replaced without replacing the entire tile. At the same time, the wear-resistant strip can be made of different colors, textures or materials (such as metallic texture or imitation stone texture) to blend with the surface decoration of the upper tile 2, avoiding the abruptness of traditional wear-resistant materials (such as metal plates). In addition, both the slot 201 and the wear-resistant strip adopt a trapezoidal design that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom to enhance the embedded snap-fit ​​effect and prevent the wear-resistant strip from curling up.

[0027] In this embodiment of the present invention, an absorbent block 203 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper ceramic tile 2. The absorbent block 203 is embedded in the second damping groove 301 and the first damping groove 104 in sequence and fixedly connected. The absorbent block 203 is fixed to the bottom of the upper ceramic tile 2 and is made of elastic material (such as rubber, EVA foam, silicone or high-toughness resin), which has high elasticity and energy absorption characteristics. The absorbent block 203 is embedded in the second damping groove 301 of the damping layer 3 and the first damping groove 104 of the lower ceramic tile 1 in sequence, forming an embedded structure that runs through the upper and lower parts, ensuring a tight connection with the damping layer and the lower ceramic tile. The absorbent block 203 and the damping layer 3 (tough transition layer) together constitute a double-layer buffer system, which absorbs energy through material deformation and structural deformation, respectively.

[0028] Working principle: A shock-absorbing layer 3 (tough transition layer) is fixedly adhered to the upper end of the lower ceramic tile 1 (high-strength aggregate layer), ensuring that the second shock-absorbing groove 301 of the shock-absorbing layer 3 is aligned and structurally compatible with the first shock-absorbing groove 104 of the lower ceramic tile 1. An absorbent block 203 (elastic material) is fixed to the center of the bottom of the upper ceramic tile 2, ensuring that the shape of the absorbent block 203 perfectly matches the first shock-absorbing groove 104 and the second shock-absorbing groove 301. The upper ceramic tile 2 is aligned with the lower ceramic tile 1, and the absorbent blocks 203 are sequentially embedded into the second shock-absorbing groove 301 and the first shock-absorbing groove 104, achieving an embedded connection between the upper ceramic tile 2, the shock-absorbing layer 3, and the lower ceramic tile 1, forming a four-layer structure of "wear-resistant glaze layer + elastic absorbent block + tough shock-absorbing layer + high-strength support layer". The slots 201 on the surface of the upper ceramic tile 2 (around...) A wear-resistant strip (made of high-hardness material, such as silicon carbide) is embedded in the middle section, ensuring that the bottom of the wear-resistant strip fits snugly against the bottom of the slot 201. A screw is screwed into the screw hole 202 to thread the wear-resistant strip to the upper tile 2. The screw head must be recessed into the screw hole 202 to keep the surface flat. Take the first tile and align the extension block 101 (bottom extension with connecting strip 103) of the lower tile 1 with the extension block 101 (top extension with connecting groove 102) of the adjacent tile. Insert the connecting strip 103 vertically into the connecting groove 102. The staggered design of the extension blocks 101 (bottom at one end, top at one end) forms an "interlocking" structure, completing the horizontal splicing of adjacent tiles. Repeat the above steps to complete the horizontal and vertical splicing of tiles within the area. This forms an integrated paving structure. During installation, a rubber mallet is used to gently tap the surface of the tiles to ensure that the absorber block 203 fits tightly with the shock-absorbing groove. Simultaneously, the flatness of the tiles is adjusted. When the surface wear-resistant strip or wear-resistant glaze layer comes into contact with a friction source (such as a shoe sole or a trolley wheel), the wear-resistant strip preferentially bears over 90% of the frictional force, directly resisting wear through its high-hardness material. If the wear-resistant strip experiences localized wear, the stress is gradually transmitted to the wear-resistant glaze layer of the upper tile 2. The high-hardness particles (such as corundum micropowder) in the glaze layer continue to resist friction. The energy generated by heavy impacts or high-frequency vibrations passes through the wear-resistant strip → upper tile 2 → absorber block 203. The elastic material (such as rubber) undergoes compression deformation, absorbing 50%-70% of the impact energy and converting it into internal energy (heat energy). The remaining energy is transferred to… The tough material (such as polyurethane) of the shock-absorbing layer 3 and the shock-absorbing groove 201 absorbs 20%-30% of the energy through the deformation of the groove structure. At the same time, the shock-absorbing groove 104 guides the stress to diffuse in all directions. The residual stress after double-layer buffering is transmitted to the high-strength aggregate layer of the lower tile 1. The dense matrix provides rigid support to prevent the base from deforming or the tile from cracking. If the wear-resistant strip is severely worn, use a screwdriver to unscrew the screw in the screw hole 202, remove the old wear-resistant strip, clean the slot 201, insert the new wear-resistant strip, and re-fix it. If the wear-resistant glaze layer of the upper tile 2 is damaged in a large area or the absorber block 203 is aged and ineffective, pull the old upper tile 2 directly upward (without removing the lower tile 1 and the shock-absorbing layer 3) and replace it with a new upper tile assembly (including the absorber block 203 and the wear-resistant strip).
