Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is related to a stand structure for a double-layer elevated floor with a simple structure and low cost, and a space that can be effectively used, so as to provide diversions of pipelines/lines and simple arrangements of pipelines/lines.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In recent years, for workplaces where computers are widely used, the connection and wiring of network lines and other pipelines/lines are very important and necessary. Since each computer must be connected with other computers through the networks and is connected electrically with power, when the amount of machineries and devices is large, the pipeline/line arrangement becomes more complicated. When the pipelines or lines are exposed to the outside, it is not only unsightly, but also impedes the movement of people. Network floors can be erected to be elevated, leaving a space through which for pipelines/lines/to pass under the network floors, and the number of network floors to be laid on can be flexibly determined in accordance with the size of the indoor space, which not only becomes the mainstream of modern information-based offices, but is also often used in homes or public places.


In the above design of the stand for an elevated floor, the pipelines/lines are hidden under the elevated floor and there is no design about diversion/division, that is, all lines, such as power lines, telephone lines, network lines and other power or signal lines are mixed together. For example, especially in countries where under-floor air conditioning (UFAD) is popular, such as in the United States and Canada, larger pipelines, such as condenser pipes, hot water pipes, water pipes or gas pipes, are placed under the elevated floors, which makes the pipelines or lines under the elevated floor are even more chaotic. Moreover, installations, maintenances and even removals for these pipelines and lines are very troublesome and inconvenient for the construction personnel to arrange various pipelines or lines.

The secondary object of the present invention is to provide a stand structure for a double-layer elevated floor with properties of low-cost, low-inventory and higher loading.


In order to fulfill above objects, the present invention provides a stand structure for a double-layer elevated floor stand structure for a double-layer elevated floor, comprising: a stand, a T-shaped seat, a supporting block and a base plate. The stand is provided on a ground and has a hollow sleeve. The T-shaped seat includes a supporting plate and a screw formed below the supporting plate, where the screw is movably combined with a nut, such that when the screw is placed in the hollow sleeve, the T-shaped seat is adjusted by the nut to be at an upper position and or a lower position on the stand. The supporting block is provided above the supporting plate. The base plate provided above the supporting block. A fixing seat is respectively provided at each corner of the base plate. Each fixing seat is used for accommodating and fixing one of supporting stands of plurality of elevated floor units, such that an upper-layer wiring space is formed between one elevated floor unit and the base plate, and a lower-layer wiring space is formed between the supporting plate below the base plate and the ground.


In an implementation, the supporting block is a cross-shaped block, and each fixing seat is correspondingly provided on the base plate above the cross-shaped block.


In an implementation, the fixing seat is an annular body, and is provided with a positioning screw, such that when one supporting stand of the elevated floor unit is accommodated in one fixing seat, the positioning screw is forced to make the supporting stand securely accommodated in each fixing seat.
