Abstract
The present invention is a device for supporting floor panels in which when the floor panels are clamped by a single-operation type panel retainer, a retaining member of a vertically swingable panel retainer support on a stud bolt is urged downwardly by the resilient force of a compression spring washer interposed between the upper surface of the retainer member and the lower surface of the head portion of the stud bolt for tightly securing the floor panels to the panel pedestal. The present invention further provides a structure for supporting floor panels in which a supporting post is swingably raised on the pedestal base plate, side walls of corners of the floor panels placed on the panel pedestal being matchingly engaged with a guide wall of the panel pedestal support and mating projections of said panel pedestal being closely fitted into mating holes formed by embedding resin holders in said floor panels, whereby the floor panels are tightly secured by a panel retainer to the panel pedester.
