Patent attributes
The present disclosure corresponds to a floating floor attachment device connecting a flooring panel to a structural floor comprising a floor puck fixed to the structural floor and a puck housing connected to the flooring panel. The puck housing has a receptacle connected to the floor puck, wherein the receptacle forms with the floor puck a gap, which allows the floor puck to move within the receptacle. Additionally, the floating floor attachment device includes a gap control media, which is connected between the floor puck and the receptacle, wherein the gap control media allows aligning the floor puck with respect to the puck housing during non-load conditions and provide resistance to displacement to the floor puck during load conditions.
