Definitions
- the present invention proposes sectional modular elements for making non-permanent floors.
- These elements are essentially base modules which may be reciprocally connected with a lock joint in such a way as to obtain a floor to be used to protect, isolate and tread on places or grounds which are not floored, for instance sandy soils, grassy soils or the like.
- modular elements according to the present invention may be used for the following main purposes:
- the aim of the present invention is the removal of the aforesaid disadvantages by using modular elements for making provisional floors or footboards on the basis of a groove-and-tongue joint assembling arrangement which permits a longitudinal or transverse or mixed laying with an exact symmetry of the joint points.
- Another advantage of the present invention is the realization of modular elements with an excellent capacity of bearing, the joining being obtained by means of a particular type of joint which is efficient even if the ground is rough.
- a series of sectional modular elements for making non-permanent floors characterized for consisting of a base module having an essentially rectangular shape of a certain height, the module being hollow internally and open to the lower side, its length being preferably twice its width, and two of the adjacent sides being provided with particular couples of projecting connecting elements while the remaining two adjacent sides are provided with couples of hollow connecting groove elements.
- intermediate connecting modular elements are provided, the dimensions of which are half the dimensions of the main modular elements. More precisely, these intermediate elements have a perimetric square shape, the side length being the same as the length of the short side of the main module.
- number 1 denotes a base modular element on the whole for making non-permanent floors according to the present invention.
- This base modular element may be carried out by moulding plastic material according to the following preferred compositions:
- the modular element 1 may be carried out by moulding different materials from the ones indicated by way of examples.
- the modular element 1 has an essentially rectangular shape of a certain height and is hollow inside and open to the lower side.
- the rectangular shape of the module has a length that is twice its width.
- grooves 2 are arranged two by two along the four perimetric edges.
- the grooves of two adjacent sides are flanged with tongue projections 3 which are arranged around the grooves like a flange.
- Such grooves are essentially shaped like a reverse "U" which is slightly flared toward the lower side.
- the inner lower side of the module 1 is provided with orthogonal ribs 4 which are elements of reinforcement.
- Vertical tubes 5 are arranged centrally along the orthogonal ribs 4. The lower end of each vertical tube is aligned with the lower border of the module, and rests on the ground in order to support the central part of the module.
- each module is provided with further grooved openings 6 along the perimetric edges. Electric cables or through conduits or the like may be inserted in such grooved openings 6.
- the alignment lines of the grooved openings meet with the vertical supporting tubes 5 at incisions 7 which are obtained on their lower ends.
- the present system is provided with further modular elements 8, as it is represented in figures 6 and 9.
- the modular elements 8 act as "jolly" elements in the sense that they may be positioned in whatever point of a platform which has been realized with the above described base modular elements 1.
- the dimensions of the intermediate modular elements 8 are half the dimensions of the main modular elements.
- the intermediate modular elements have a square shape, the length of the side being the same as the length of the shorter sides of the main module.
- modular elements 9 with inclined wall for the formation of a chute for facilitating the ascent and descent to and from the footboard.
- These latest modular elements may be positioned along the perimetric edge of the assembled footboard and comprise connecting means which are positioned along the coupling side and are carried out according to the groove version indicated at 9 in figures 3 and 4 or according to the tongue version indicated at 9' in figures 3' and 4' depending on their configuration.
- a first module is positioned by keeping the groove sides toward the first most external angle of the platform. Then, the subsequent modules are positioned so that the groove sides of each module are positioned on the tongue sides of the modules which already rest on the ground. In this way, it is possible to obtain a mutual lock joint and a perfect locking.
- the coupling profiles permit the modules to be perfectly blocked one with another so that the structure is self-supporting once it is positioned on the ground and it is not possible to release an element if the more external elements are not released before.
- notches 10 are obtained on the upper surface of the modules and are surrounded by knurled sectors 11.
- the notches 10 avoid water stagnation and facilitate the ground airing.
- the knurled sectors 11 act as nonslip elements.
- modules offer all the above mentioned advantages, namely, the greatest ease in assembling and laying the structure, the possibility of positioning the modules on grassland or lawns without damaging them thanks to the particular shape of each module, which shape permits grass to breathe and not to rot, the drainage being safe-guarded.
- the modules may be positioned also on earthy, sandy, wet, moist surfaces.
