Grout floa
Abstract
A grout float includes a first body made of rigid material and being a board. The first body is received in a first hole in a second body which is a board. The second body has a first face and a second face respectively defined in the top and the underside thereof, wherein the second face is larger than the first face to shape the second body as a trapezoidal body. The second body has a first side and second side. The second body has four first corners. A first inclined face is connected between the first and second faces. A second inclined face is connected between the first and second sides. The second body is made of soft material. A handle unit is removably connected to the second body and includes a first handle and a second handle.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A grout float comprising:
a first body being a board and made of rigid material, the first body having a first hole defined in each of two ends thereof, each of the first holes having inner threads; a second body having the first body received therein, the second body being a board and having two second holes which are located corresponding to the first holes, the second body having a first connection portion in which the first body is received, the second body having a first face defined in a top thereof, and a second face defined in an underside thereof, an area of the second face being larger than that of the first face, the second body being a trapezoidal body, the second body having a first side and a second side on two opposite sides thereof, a first corner defined in each of four corners of the second body, a first inclined face connected between the first and second faces, a second inclined face connected between the first and second sides; the second body being made of a material that is softer than the material of the first body; a handle unit connected to the second body and having a first handle and a second handle which is received in the first handle; the first handle being a U-shaped body and having two third holes which are located corresponding to the first and second holes; the second handle received in the first handle and having two third connection portions which protrude beyond the first handle, the third connection portions connected to the first face, each of the third connection portions having a fourth hole which is located corresponding to the first hole, the second hole and the third hole, the second handle having fourth connection portions which are connected to the two third connection portions and located in the first handle, the fourth connection portions each being an inverted U-shaped portion, and two connection members each extending through the third hole, the fourth hole, the second hole and the first hole corresponding thereto so as to connect the handle unit to the first and second bodies, the connection members each having outer threads.
2 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second body is a rectangular body.
3 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first corners each are an right-angle corner.
4 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first and second inclined faces have the same inclination.
5 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second body is made of rubber, plastic, epoxy resin, or sponge.
6 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first handle has two second connection portions which are located between the two third holes, the second connection portions are passages, the fourth connection portions has fifth connection portions which are located corresponding to the second connection portions, the fifth connection portions connected to the second connection portions, the fifth connection portions each are a cylindrical rod.
7 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first side of the second body has a first corner on each of two ends thereof, each of the first corners is a right-angle corner, a second corner and a third corner are respectively formed on two ends of the second side of the second body, the second corner is an inclined side, the third corner is a rounded corner.
8 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two ends of the second side of the second body each are a fourth corner, each of the fourth corners is a spherical recessed corner.
9 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second body has a triangle-shaped fifth corner on one end thereof.
10 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second body is longer than the first body, the second body has three second holes which are located transversely in the second body so as to adjust a position of the handle unit relative to the second body.
11 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second body is a circular board or a trapezoidal board.
12 . The grout float as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first body has multiple sixth connection portions, the first and second bodies are securely connected to each other by the sixth connection portions.Cited by (0)
