US 2022/0349188 A1 · REINFORCED PEDESTAL AND RETICULAR STRUCTURE THAT SUPPORTS SUPERPOSED SURFACES AND CONSTRUCTION METHOD THEREOF

Abstract

Reinforced pedestal (A) to support raised surfaces or overlying on fixed surfaces, comprising: an internal part (1), made up of a truncated conical tubular body (2); and at its wide end a base (7) is provided; and a reinforced external tubular part (9) that houses the internal part (1), made up of a truncated conical tubular body (10), in whose center it has a longitudinally truncated conical gap to house the truncated conical body (2) of the internal part (1). Grid structure to support overlapping surfaces, comprising: at least two reinforced pedestals (A) placed apart and parallel to each other, at a sufficient distance to support an overlapping surface; and at least two guide crossheads (13) useful for guiding the placement of the pieces (14) that are going to shape to the overlying surface. Method for building the grid structure, comprising: at least, two modules (B) and/or (C) that form the reinforced pedestals (A); assembling the pieces (1 and 9) of a module with the pieces (1 and 9) of other modules; and to include at least two guide crossheads (13) useful in placing the pieces (14) that are going to conform to the overlying surface on a fixed surface.

Dependent claims

A reinforced pedestal (A) to support raised surfaces or overlying on fixed surfaces, comprising:

i) an internal part (1), made up of a truncated conical tubular body (2), which in turn comprises externally and longitudinally, at least, one rib (3) to give it greater resistance to weight;
and at the wide or lower end of the tubular body a base (7) is provided;
and
ii) an external tubular part (9) that houses the internal part (1), made up of:
a truncated conical tubular body (10) opened at both ends, which in its center has;
a truncated conical gap to house the truncated conical body (2) of the internal part (1), said truncated conical gap is delimited by at least two internal radial walls (11) that originate, diametrically opposite each other, from the inner wall of the tubular body (10) and are pulled towards the central longitudinal axis of said tubular body (10), so the width of the radial inner walls (11) is that which allows leaving a gap with the shape and dimensions enough for the truncated tubular body (2) to be completely housed;
a ring (12) supported by the free edges of the internal radial walls (11) located towards the center of the narrow or upper end of the truncated conical body (10), also delimits the truncated conical space;
at least two longitudinal slits (15) diametrically opposite each other are provided on the external walls of the truncated conical tubular body (10);
and
some edges (16) are strategically provided on the lower internal edge of the external walls of the body (10) to ensure internally and perpendicularly regarding the external walls, the base (7) of the part (1), so that said edges (16) are pulled towards the interior of the tubular body (10), in such a way that they secure the base (7), giving firmness to the reinforced pedestal (A).

The structure of the preceding claim, wherein the connector is a longitudinal connector (17), where one of its ends is attached to the horizontal edge (22) of the base (7) of the internal part (1) and the other end is attached to the lower edge of the non-entry side (23) of the external wall of the tubular body (10).

The structure according to the previous claim, wherein the detachment mechanism (18) is placed at the junction points between the connectors (17, 24 and 26) and the edges (22, 25) of the base (7) of the internal parts (1), and/or the lower edge of the external wall of the tubular body (10) of the external parts (9).

The structure of the preceding claim, wherein the fastening element (19) is selected from the following group:

rings, rings, and staples.

A method for building the grid structure, in accordance with claims 10 to 20, comprising:

i) provides at least two modules (B) and/or (C) that form reinforced pedestals (A), where each module comprises:
at least one internal part (1) with at least one horizontal edge (22,25) on at least one of the sides of its base (7);
an external tubular piece (9) that has at its wide or lower end of the tubular body (10), at least one inlet (23) in the lower edge of at least one of the sides of the tubular body (10) so that the horizontal edges (22, 25) of the base (7) are perfectly housed in said entrance (23);
and at least one connector joins the internal part (1) with the external tubular part (9) in a horizontal plane;
ii) assemble the pieces (1 and 9) of a module with the pieces (1 and 9) of other modules to assemble the reinforced pedestals (A);
where the internal part is inserted into the truncated conical space of the external part (9), until the base (7) is secured by the edges (16) of said part (9), and the horizontal edges (22, 25) they are coupled to their respective inlet (23) of such external tubular part;
iii) repeat the previous step until assembling all required modules (B) and/or (C) forming the required pedestals (A);
iv) assembling parts (1, 9) independently of those parts (1, 9) that were not assembled, to complete the grid structure;
and
v) include at least two guide crossheads (13) useful in placing the pieces (14) that are going to conform to the overlying surface on a fixed surface.
