Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system for connecting and a fitting method between modules for floor covering. The system comprises a female element ( 1 ) and a male element ( 2 ) connected to the floor modules and interlinked. The female element ( 1 ) consists of a major plate of the female element ( 1.1 ), track ( 1.2 ), edge ( 1.3 ), notches ( 1.3.1 ) ( 1.3.2 ), superior plate of the female element ( 1.4 ) and a groove ( 1.5 ). The male element ( 2 ) consists of a major plate of the male element ( 2.1 ), inferior plate ( 2.2 ), two protrusions, minor plate of the male element ( 2.3 ) and a latch ( 2.3.1 ).

Claim (Index 10):
The blocking method of the female element and the male element of the system for connecting the modules that comprise the floor covering claimed in  claim 1 , comprising the following steps:\n The female element and the male element are positioned in substantially parallel planes, and the minor plate of the male element is substantially aligned with the track; The male element is displaced so that the minor plate of the male element gets in touch with the track, the latch being substantially coplanar with groove; simultaneously, the edge will fit in the space between the side wall of the inferior plate and the side wall of the major plate of the male element; The male element is pushed and slides through the track until the latch fits in the groove, this movement should continue until the latch is completely under the superior plate of the female element, this fact occurring when the vertical wall of the superior plate of the female element immediately above the groove comes into contact with the vertical wall of the inferior plate closest to the latch; at this point the protrusion of the inferior plate rests on, and is coupled to, the notch of the edge and the protrusion of the inferior plate rests and couples with notch of the edge; wherein the notches fitting the protrusions of the male element.
