Abstract
A solid floor board assembly with duct raceway is composed of a plurality of base blocks, layer plates, and floor boards. A hollow cavity is formed between the base blocks and the layer plates and is partitioned to accommodate a variety of wire ducts and conduit installations neatly and orderly in desired configuration, and the surface thereof is covered with the floor boards so as to further improve the appearance of the whole structure. The solidarity of structure ensures a high compressive strength, and the number of unit floor board for assembly, the size and the configuration is left to the decision of the building owner. Slip resistant stripes, flower-like striae or a picturesque pattern may be provided on the surface of the floor boards. Duct and conduit exits are provide on the surface of the floor boards for extension of wire ducts and conduit installation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Referring to FIG. 1, which is an exploded view showing one unit piece of the present invention. The solid floor board assembly with duct raceway cavity is composed of a plurality of unit base block 1, unit layer plate 2, and unit floor board 3.



FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 are the perspective views of the base block and the layer plate respectively. Each base block 1 is provided with four stubs 11 at four corners thereof, and a recess 12 is formed on the top surface of each stub 11. The layer plate 2 is entrained on the base block 1 among four stubs 11 and can be formed into any desired configuration so as to partition the cavity between the base block 1 and the layer plate 2 in the transverse and longitudinal direction. The base block 1 is firmly sustained on the ground with screws, two-faced binder, liquid binder, or nails.



FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the floor board, and FIG. 5 is an exploded view for illustrating the structural relation among the component parts according to the present invention. There are a plurality of posts 31 erected on the surface of the floor board 3 to be inserted into the corresponding recesses 12 formed on the stubs 11 of the base block 1 in the manner of detachable tenon and mortise joint without the need of any tools therefore completing a structure of solid floor board assembly with duct raceway cavity.



FIG. 6A to FIG. 6F show six variation patterns of the layer plate, such a variation can be accomplished by scraping several frangible creases 21 on the layer plate 2 and split the layer plate 2 along the creases 21.



FIG. 7 is an exemplary perspective view of the present invention, here, the layer plates 2 are split along the frangible creases 21 to make a desired layout passage for a wire duct 5 or cold/hot water pipes 6 in the cavity.



FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a completed structure of the present invention, what the observer can see is a clean and neat surface of the floor board 3. For enhancing the security of the dwellers, the surface of the floor boards 3 can be provided with slip resistant striae. Besides, a variety of flower-like stripes or picturesque patterns may be formed on the surface of the floor boards 3.


For extension of the wire ducts 5 and cold/hot water pipes 6 in any direction, one or more than one duct and pipe exit may be provided on the surface of the floor boards 3.


It is understood that the present invention is a high level technical creation and by no means, simply utilizes conventional technology or knowledge known prior to the application for patent, or can easily be made by persons skilled in the arts. Prior to the application for patent, the invention has neither been published or put to public use, nor displayed in an exhibition. Many changes and modifications in the above described embodiment of the invention can, of course, be carried out without departing from the scope thereof. Accordingly, to promote the progress in science and the useful arts, the invention is disclosed and is intended to be limited only by the scope of the appended claims.
