Abstract

A floor assembly includes a plurality of boards and bases. Each board is provided on the bottom surface thereof with a sliding groove. Each base includes a main body, a positioning member, and first and second buckling members. The positioning member is slidably disposed in the sliding groove of the board. The first buckling member is located at the left side of the main body and has a buckling block and a notch. The second buckling member is located at the right side of the main body and has an accommodating space and a protrusion. The adjacent bases are connected with each other in a way that the buckling block is disposed in the accommodating space and the protrusion is embedded in the notch. As a result, the floor assembly is simplified in structure and assembling process, thereby convenient in construction and stable in structure.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A floor assembly comprising;
 a plurality of boards, each of the boards being provided on a bottom surface thereof with a sliding groove; and   a plurality of bases, each of the bases comprising a main body, a positioning member, a first buckling member and a second buckling member, which are formed integrally, the main body having a top surface, a bottom surface, a left side, a right side, a front surface and a rear surface, a transverse axis being defined to extend from the left side to the right side, a longitudinal axis being defined to extend from the front surface to the rear surface, the positioning member being located on the top surface of the main body and slidably disposed in the sliding groove of the board, the first buckling member being located at the left side of the main body and provided with a buckling block and a notch located between the top surface and the left side of the main body and concaved along the transverse axis, the second buckling member being located at the right side of the main body and provided with an open accommodating space and a protrusion located between the top surface and the right side of the main body and extended along the transverse axis, the adjacent bases are connected with each other in a way that the buckling block of the first buckling member is disposed in the accommodating space of the second buckling member and the protrusion of the second buckling member is embedded in the notch of the first buckling member.   
     
     
         2 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the buckling block of the first buckling member has a plurality of first positioning teeth aligned along the longitudinal axis; the second buckling member is provided inside the accommodating space thereof with a plurality of second positioning teeth; an arrangement of the second positioning teeth and an arrangement of the first positioning teeth are staggered; the adjacent bases are engaged with each other by the first positioning teeth and the second positioning teeth thereof. 
     
     
         3 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the notch of the first buckling member has a plurality of first positioning teeth aligned along the longitudinal axis; the protrusion of the second buckling member has a plurality of second positioning teeth adjacent to the accommodating space; an arrangement of the second positioning teeth and an arrangement of the first positioning teeth are staggered. 
     
     
         4 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the bottom surface of the board is provided with a positioning groove; the top surface of the base is provided with a positioning rib corresponding in position to the positioning groove; the positioning rib is disposed in the positioning groove. 
     
     
         5 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the buckling block of the first buckling member comprises an outer wall, a bottom wall and an inner inclined wall adjacent to the bottom surface of the main body; the accommodating space of the second buckling member is formed by an inner wall adjacent to the bottom surface of the main body, a bottom wall and an outer inclined wall. 
     
     
         6 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the buckling block of the first buckling member is provided on outsides of the outer wall, the bottom wall and the inner inclined wall thereof with a plurality of first positioning teeth aligned along the longitudinal axis; the second buckling member is provided on insides of the inner wall, the bottom wall and the outer inclined wall thereof with a plurality of second positioning teeth; an arrangement of the second positioning teeth and an arrangement of the first positioning teeth are staggered; the adjacent bases are engaged with each other by the first positioning teeth and the second positioning teeth thereof. 
     
     
         7 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the buckling block is provided at a juncture of the bottom wall and the inner inclined wall thereof with a round corner. 
     
     
         8 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the bottom wall of the first buckling member has a through hole, and the bottom wall of the second buckling member has a through hole corresponding in position to the through hole of the bottom wall of the first buckling member. 
     
     
         9 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the sliding groove of the board comprises a narrow passage and a wide inner trough communicating with the narrow passage; the positioning member comprises a vertical section and a horizontal section; an end of the vertical section is connected to the top surface of the main body; another end of the vertical section is connected to the horizontal section; the vertical section and the horizontal section of the positioning member are slidably disposed in the narrow passage and the wide inner trough of the sliding groove of the board respectively. 
     
     
         10 . The floor assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the base has a through hole penetrating through the top surface of the base and the bottom surface of the base.
