GRANITE CERAMIC PATTERNED LVT

Today, various floors are made on the floors in the interior environments of buildings and similar structures, and there are different coating applications on these floors. Raised floors; It means that the building is arranged in such a way that electricity, water and natural gas installations can pass between the real floor with the help of surfaces attached to the supports installed on that floor, not its own floor. Therefore, these raised floors may require intervention from time to time. The most frequently used materials in these systems: Tile carpet, tile PVC (polyvinylchloride), LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tile), ceramic, granite or the most known parquet are the most frequently used materials from these applications. Chemical adhesives that do not dry out are used to connect these materials to the floor. The method of application in parquet coating has been developed compared to the old type parquets, and the system has been switched to the system that is connected to the floor by nailing from each other at the ends, but still, when it is desired to intervene in a facility under the floor, someone who has knowledge about the parquet installation should remove all the parquets one by one. Chemical adhesives that do not dry frequently continue to be used in other materials. As the name suggests, the chemical nature of an industrial material generally means that it can harm human health through respiration or contact. The situation does not change in this application. During the application, they pose a danger to human health by breathing or contact, when intervention is required to the infrastructure, usually by contact.

During the aforementioned interventions, when the raised floor top coatings are desired to be disconnected from the underlying floor, this process is performed by applying force against the non-drying chemical adhesive or by various cutting methods. Since this process is not about disassembling the installed system, in other words, disassembling its form, when the lower surface of the floor is separated from the floor, a part of the surface is molded in the adhesive and deformed. When this disassembly process is repeatedly performed due to a chronic problem or errors, serious deformations occur in the flooring.

One of the disadvantages of the non-drying adhesive is that over time, its form deteriorates and its original chemical form changes and begins to dry. As a result of this form change, the top coverings leave the edge joints on the modular raised floor system and the rising edges form a clawed structure, causing events such as snagging and falling. Since the structure of the mentioned non-drying adhesives is fluid, they have the potential to easily damage the installations in the infrastructure by leaking through the gaps between the floor panels.

In addition, applying by pressing on the adhesive applied with a roller on the raised floor causes both time loss and application difficulty by increasing the work load. Another disadvantage is that different panel models used in raised floor systems are mounted by screwing through the screw holes on the panel. When liquid chemical glue is applied to the top coatings in such panels, these adhesives leak into the screw holes and make the screws unopened. Due to the unopened screws, the structure of the flooring system, which should be modular, deteriorates and loses its modularity, it does not allow the user to interfere, and it creates a structure against the purpose of the installation.

In the literature, in the research on the subject, the United States patent application numbered US5412914 (A), titled "Raised accessible floor system" was found. In the said application, the connection of the raised floor system between the real floor and the surface floor, unlike the more commonly used support systems, a chassis was formed using shafts of different lengths and angles. The floors on the chassis are connected with various fasteners such as screws, and a solution has been provided to provide access by loosening the mechanical connection in the floors when intervention is required to the infrastructure. However, the chassis and extra fasteners used are very costly to the magnetism technique, and will cause time and financial costs in manufacturing and assembly.

As a result, it was required to make an improvement in the relevant technical field due to the above-mentioned negativities and the insufficiency of existing solutions.
