[0013] 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.
[0014] Please see Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 5, this utility model provides a technical solution: a floor connector, comprising: a connector body 2 made of aluminum alloy, the connector body 2 including a base plate 7, the base plate 7 having a U-shaped structure; a boss 4 vertically fixed to the top of the base plate 7, the boss 4 being located in the middle of the top of the base plate 7, and the boss 4 having a T-shaped structure, with protrusions 3 fixed to the inner walls of the base plate 7 at two points, the top of the boss 4 having a concave arc-shaped structure, and protrusions 5 fixed to both ends of the top of the boss 4, the lower side of the protrusion 5 being an arc tangent to the boss 4, the top of the protrusion 5 being an arc, and a groove 6 being formed between the protrusion 5 and the side wall of one side of the boss 4 and the protrusion 3.
[0015] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, during the process of connecting the floor body 1 and the connector body 2, the connector body 2 is slidably embedded from the side, so that the protrusion 5 on the connector body 2 corresponds to the V-groove 9 on the floor body 1, and the protrusion 3 on the connector body 2 corresponds to the straight groove 10 on the floor body 1. The protrusion 3 is engaged inside the straight groove 10, forming an engagement positioning, which makes the connection between the floor body 1 and the connector body 2 more stable. The boss 4 is in contact with the edge of the locking block 11 located below the V-groove 9. When disassembling, the floor body 1 can be disassembled by pulling out the connector from one end of the floor body 1.
[0016] A type of flooring includes multiple flooring bodies 1 and the aforementioned connectors. The multiple flooring bodies 1 are spliced together by the connectors. Each flooring body 1 includes a horizontal plate 8. Both ends of the horizontal plate 8 have V-shaped grooves 9, and the bottom of the horizontal plate 8 has a straight groove 10. The area between the straight groove 10 and the V-shaped groove 9 forms a locking block 11.
[0017] It should be noted that in this embodiment, on the upper side of the V-groove 9, the groove edge is parallel to the horizontal plate, while the other side is inclined. The horizontal plate 8 below the inclined side of the V-groove 9 is recessed inward to accommodate the protrusion 4 of the connector. The thickness of the floor body 1 is equal to the thickness of the connector body 2. The equal thickness of the floor body 1 and the connector body 2 ensures a snug fit after connection, eliminating any unnecessary protrusions and achieving a perfect splice for a more aesthetically pleasing finish. The length of the connector body 2 is equal to the sum of the distances of the straight grooves 9 connecting two adjacent floor bodies 1.
