Magnetic interlocking portable floor

Abstract

The Magnetic Interlocking Portable floor may implement an interlocking tongue-and-groove method for holding panels together. The tongues may have a trapezoidal wedge shape for aligning the panels. The Magnetic Interlocking Portable Floor may implement magnets to assist the connection and alignment of the panels. Further, the magnets may hold the panels together. The use of magnets may prevent the panels from separating at the seams. The panels may include a base, such as hardwood plywood. Further, the panels may include any type of surface for dancing, such as hardwood or laminate.

1 . A portable floor apparatus comprising:
 a panel comprising four edges,   wherein a first edge of the panel comprises an arrangement of:
 magnets, and aluminum tongues, and wherein a second edge of the panel comprises an arrangement of fixed magnetic metals in a trapezoidal shape, and 
 wherein the first edge of the panel is configured to interlock with another panel's second edge; 
 and wherein the arrangement of the magnets and aluminum tongues of the first edge and the arrangement of the fixed magnetic metals of the second edge are configured to interlock the first edge of the panel and the second of another panel in a squared or staggered alignment. 
   
     
     
         2 . A portable floor system comprising:
 a first panel comprising a first set of edges,   wherein at least one first edge of the first set of edges comprises an arrangement of magnets, and aluminum tongues; and   a second panel comprising a second set of edges,   wherein at least one second edge of the second set of edges comprises an arrangement of fixed magnetic metal in a trapezoidal shape, wherein the arrangement of fixed magnetic metal is configured to interlock with the at least one first edge; and   wherein the at least one first edge of the first panel and the least one second edge of the second panel are configured to interconnect the first and second panel in a squared or staggered alignment.   
     
     
         3 . A portable floor comprising:
 a first panel having a first channel, the first channel comprising an arrangement of magnets, and aluminum tongues; and   a second panel having a second channel, the second channel comprising an arrangement of fixed magnetic metal in a trapezoidal shape, wherein the arrangement of fixed magnetic metal is configured to interlock with the arrangement of the first channel to form a continuous portable flooring comprised of the first panel and the second panel;   wherein the arrangement of the first channel and the arrangement of the second channel are configured to interconnect the first and second panel in a squared or staggered alignment.   
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the arrangement of the first edge further comprises spacers. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 2 , wherein the arrangement of the at least one first edge further comprises spacers. 
     
     
         6 . The portable floor of  claim 3 , wherein the arrangement of the first channel further comprises spacers. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein an edge adjacent to the first edge comprises an arrangement of magnets and aluminum tongues identical to the first edge, and wherein an edge adjacent to the second edge comprises an arrangement of fixed magnetic metal identical to the second edge.
