Abstract
A tile leveling system includes a fixture and a rotary member mounted on the fixture. The fixture includes a base, at least one spacer integrally formed on the base, and a connecting portion formed on the at least one spacer. The at least one spacer is provided with a breaking point. The connecting portion has a top having a central position provided with an internal thread. The connecting portion has two sides each having a top provided with a shoulder. The rotary member is provided with a hollow receiving chamber which has an inner diameter slightly greater than the maximum width defined by an outer edge of the at least one spacer. A threaded rod is mounted in the hollow receiving chamber and is screwed into the internal thread.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A tile leveling system comprising:
a fixture; and a rotary member mounted on the fixture; wherein: the fixture includes: a base; at least one spacer integrally formed on and extending upward from the base; and a connecting portion formed on and extending upward from the at least one spacer; the at least one spacer is provided with a breaking point; the connecting portion has a top having a central position provided with an internal thread; the connecting portion of the fixture has two sides each having a top provided with a shoulder; the rotary member is provided with a hollow receiving chamber which has an inner diameter slightly greater than the maximum width defined by an outer edge of the at least one spacer; and a threaded rod is mounted in the hollow receiving chamber of the rotary member and is screwed into the internal thread of the fixture.
2 . The tile leveling system of claim 1 , wherein the fixture includes a spacer which is centered at a central point of the base.
3 . The tile leveling system of claim 1 , wherein the fixture includes a plurality of spacers which are centered at a central point of the base and are equally spaced from each other.
4 . The tile leveling system of claim 1 , wherein the shoulder of the fixture has an arcuate shape.
5 . The tile leveling system of claim 1 , wherein:
the threaded rod has a top provided with a limit portion; the rotary member has a top provided with a through hole connected to the hollow receiving chamber; and the through hole of the rotary member has two sides each provided with a locking portion for locking the limit portion of the threaded rod, so that the threaded rod is locked onto the rotary member and extends into the hollow receiving chamber.
6 . The tile leveling system of claim 1 , wherein the threaded rod and the rotary member are made of plastic material.
7 . The tile leveling system of claim 1 , wherein the threaded rod and the rotary member are made of different material.
8 . The tile leveling system of claim 7 , wherein the threaded rod is made of metallic material, and the rotary member is made of plastic material.
9 . The tile leveling system of claim 1 , wherein the threaded rod and the rotary member are made of plastic material and are formed integrally.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
