DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0021] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, the present invention is a board structure formed by connecting pure wood materials, comprising several pure wood units 1, several self tapping screws 2, a first pure wood edge sealing unit 8 and a second pure wood edge sealing unit 9.

[0022] An upper side and a lower side of each of the pure wood units 1 are provided respectively with a contraction slit 4. The contraction slit 4 allows the pure wood materials to be tensile when the pure wood materials expands or contracts under dry condition, so as to present the pure wood materials from cracking, bulging and deforming. The upper side and the lower side respectively possessed with the contraction slit 4 are applied with wood adhesives 10. Wood adhesives 10 bind the pure wood units 1 more tightly and firmly when they are connected. The wood adhesives 10 are applied prior to connection of the pure wood units 1.

[0023] As shown in FIGS. 2-3, in each one of the pure wood units 1, several self tapping screws 2 are screwed into the pure wood unit from the contraction slit 4 on the upper side, through the contraction slit 4 on the lower side, and down into the upper side of a corresponding adjacent pure wood unit of the pure wood units 1, so that the upper side of one pure wood unit is connected with the lower side of a corresponding adjacent pure wood unit; all the pure wood units 1 are likewise mutually connected one adjacent to another to form a board structure 5 as shown in FIG. 3.

[0024] The wood adhesives 10 are also applied to the first pure wood edge sealing unit 8 and the second pure wood edge sealing unit 9; the first pure wood edge sealing unit 8 and the second pure wood edge sealing unit 9 are connected respectively to an upper outermost side and a lower outermost side of the board structure 5; and then a clamp designed for wood work is used for clamping and pressing the board structure 5 to achieve an effect shown in FIG. 1. During connection, the self tapping screws 2 arranged in any one of the pure wood units 1 are staggered with respective to the self tapping screws 2 arranged in a corresponding adjacent pure wood unit thereof, so that the self tapping screws 2 arranged in different pure wood units Twill not collide together affecting the connection between the pure wood units 1.

[0025] On the basis of the above disclosure and according to the practical need in different circumstances, the pure wood units 1 can be processed to have arc shapes as shown in FIG. 4; also engagement teeth 3 are arranged in a left side and a right side of each of the pure wood units 1; wood adhesives are applied to each of the engagement teeth 3.

[0026] The engagement teeth 3 on the left side of a pure wood unit are engaged with the engagement teeth 3 on the right side of a corresponding adjacent pure wood unit. Vertical connection between an upper pure wood unit and a lower pure wood unit can be achieved by the method described earlier. Therefore, each of the pure wood units 1 is likewise having the left side thereof connected with the right side of a corresponding adjacent pure wood unit, and thus forming a pure wood workpiece having an arc shape, as shown in FIG. 5.

[0027] Besides, according to practical need in different circumstances, the self tapping screws 2 can also be arranged in the pure wood units 1 as shown in FIG. 6, namely, the self tapping screws 2 may be screwed in a lateral direction of the pure wood units 1, so that the pure wood units 1 are mutually secured.

[0028] On the basis of the above disclosure, the use of the board structure 5 is further broadened as shown in FIG. 7, where a pure wood frame 6 is also provided; insertion edges 51 are provided on four sides of the board structure 5; insertion slots 61 are corresponding provided on four inner sides of the pure wood frame 6; the insertion edges 51 of the board structure 5 are inserted into the insertion slots 61 of the pure wood frame 6, so that the board structure 5 is assembled in the pure wood frame 6. The four sides of the board structure 5 are limited by the above structural design so that the four sides of the board structure are maintained to be flat and straight and the board structure 5 will no longer bulge and deform. The board structure accordingly has good active tensile ability and so completely prevents cracks and deformation. The entire board structure is more stable and has better structural strength, and thus having better quality that significantly increases its service life. Besides, the properties of solid pure wood are completely preserved in the entire board structure. Consumers' demands for solid pure wood products in terms of for example their greenness and environmental friendliness are effectively satisfied.

[0029] On the basis of the teachings of the pure wood frame 6 and the board structure 5 as disclosed above, the scope of application of the present invention can be further broadened by using two pieces of board structure 5, as shown in FIGS. 8-9. An electric heating element 7 is provided between the two pieces of board structure 5; correspondingly, the pure wood frame 6 has an increased size so that two pieces of board structure 5 can be embedded in the pure wood frame 6. In order that the two pieces of board structure 5 are more tightly combined, a trough 20 is also provided between the two pieces of board structure 5; the electric heating element 7 is mounted in the trough 20.

[0030] The electric heating element 7 mounted between the two pieces of board structure 5 achieves the function of heated board; the use of pure wood frame 6 is used for limiting and locking the two pieces of board structure 5. Therefore, an electrically heated pure wood board structure is attained, which effectively utilizes the active tensile ability of the board structure 5 to achieve the advantages such as stable and strong structure, and resistant to cracks and deformation. More importantly, the entire electrically heated pure wood board structure is ensured to be made completely by solid pure wood; the electric heating element is completely free of any metal parts and will not be visible from the outer appearance of the board structure. What is visible is only the solid pure wood board structure. Moreover, light weight and low cost facilitate processing and shaping into different specifications to be applied to different solid pore wood products. The adaptability and shaping of the present invention have no difference compared with conventional solid pure wood boards. However, the present invention has a wider applicability and effectively overcomes the problems of a conventional solid pure wood board such as easy deformation and cracking. As shown in FIGS. 12-13, the present invention is applied to the making of a chair where the chair may be shaped with more complicated curves and curved surfaces.
