Abstract
A flooring substrate system that uses one of three substrate components upon which various types of finish flooring may be attached above a deck structure. The deck structure may be open lumber framed or may be a waterproofed planar surface. Affixation of the flooring system may be by direct connection or by gravitational placement. Height and slope adjustable components interlock through a plunge, twist and locking teeth arrangement to form supporting members beneath the substrate components. A base mounting plate acts as a pivotal point in the system, having recesses and engageable configurations on both its faces for other system components.
Claims10
A height adjustable assembly for the support of paver tiles above a structural deck comprising:
- a base mounting plate, said base mounting plate comprising a planar disk with a top surface, a bottom surface, and a series of orifices between said top surface and said bottom surface and wherein said base mounting plate has a set of evenly radially spaced, tabs that form a ring of inward facing teeth and twist lock gaps about an outer perimeter of a bottom face of said base mounting plate;
- a paver plate having planar bottom plate with a top face and a bottom face and at least three edges, two of said edges each having a side extending perpendicularly from said top face and at least one locking pin extending perpendicularly from said bottom face;
- and
- wherein said pins and said orifices are matingly conformed and said paver plate is connectable to said top surface of said base mounting plate so as to extend normally from a top plane of said base mounting plate.
