Non-Interlock Assembled Flooring System

Abstract

Disclosed is a non-interlock assembled flooring system, comprising: a base sheet layer and a surface slat layer disposed on the base sheet layer, wherein the surface slat layer includes a plurality of wood floor slats arranged side-by-side in a widthwise direction, the wood floor slats are separated by a plurality of cut grooves serving as expansion joints, and the surface slat layer has a continuous wood-grain surface formed by upper surfaces of the wood floor slats.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A non-interlock assembled flooring system, comprising:
 a base sheet layer, made of a flexible sheet, a lower surface of the base sheet layer being a laying surface; and   a surface slat layer, disposed on the base sheet layer, the surface slat layer including a plurality of wood floor slats arranged side-by-side in a widthwise direction, the wood floor slats being formed by longitudinally cutting a plurality of cut grooves parallel to each other on a single wood panel securely attached to an upper surface of the base sheet layer, such that the wood floor slats are separated by the cut grooves serving as expansion joints, and the surface slat layer has a continuous wood-grain surface formed by upper surfaces of the wood floor slats,   wherein, by laying the non-interlock assembled flooring system on a floor with the laying surface of the base sheet layer facing the floor, the floor is covered by the wood floor slats which are not interlocked with each other, and   by bending the non-interlock assembled flooring system using at least one of the cut grooves as a fold line, the non-interlock assembled flooring system has a folded width for storage and transportation less than its original width before bending, and the non-interlock assembled flooring system is allowed to be laid on the floor in a bending manner to match the unevenness of the floor.   
     
     
         2 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the flexible sheet is a fabric sheet, a paper sheet, a plastic sheet, or a metal sheet. 
     
     
         3 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the flexible sheet is provided with a mesh attached thereto. 
     
     
         4 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the wood panel is made of solid wood or recycled wood. 
     
     
         5 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising an intermediate layer disposed between the base sheet layer and the surface slat layer, wherein the intermediate layer is made of recycled wood. 
     
     
         6 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 4 , further comprising an intermediate layer disposed between the base sheet layer and the surface slat layer, wherein the intermediate layer is made of recycled wood. 
     
     
         7 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein in the surface slat layer, the cut grooves are formed simultaneously in a single cutting process with a plurality of cutting tools arranged in parallel to improve the parallelism between the wood floor slats. 
     
     
         8 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein in the surface slat layer, the cut grooves are V-shaped grooves. 
     
     
         9 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein in the surface slat layer, the cut grooves are vertical linear grooves. 
     
     
         10 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the surface slat layer further includes a plurality of gap fillers filling in the cut grooves, thereby forming an upper surface of the surface slat layer into a seamless surface. 
     
     
         11 . The non-interlock assembled flooring system as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a transparent coating layer formed on the upper surfaces of the wood floor slats in a manner that the continuous wood-grain surface is visible through the transparent coating layer.
