Interlocking floorboard tile system and method of manufacture

摘要

An interlocking polymer floorboard tile ( 10 ) comprises an elongate rectangular plank having a length (L) that is at least four times its width (w). The elongate tile includes a top surface ( 12 ), a perimeter wall ( 26 ) and lattice-type support structure ( 28 ) supporting the top surface, and interlocking structure of loops ( 16 ) and pins ( 18 ) configured to mate and interlock with pins of adjacent similar tiles to form a floor covering resembling a natural wood plank floor. The top surface ( 12 ) may include a wood grain pattern imprinted thereon, to enhance the appearance of a natural wood plank.
