  • Publication number: 20130161863
    Abstract: Points on a surface of a vehicle foot well are digitally measured with a coordinate measuring machine. A vehicle foot well surface model is recreated in an electronic memory to include these points. The foot well surface model is in turn used to construct a mold for a vehicle floor tray, which ensures a snug fit.

  • Publication number: 20130111836
    Abstract: Modular plastic floor tiles have elongate drainage vents formed to extend from the general upper surfaces of the tiles to general lower surfaces thereof. In a two-shot injection molded embodiment, the vents are laterally spaced from locations of overmolded features, and may be disposed within channels defined by downwardly depending support ribs. In one embodiment, groups of elongate vents are disposed around respective fill points in radiant fashion, so as to minimize the impedance to polymer flow within the injection mold. The vents may be radiussed at the tile's upper surface to enhance their fluid collecting capability.

  • Publication number: 20130095295
    Abstract: A modular plastic floor tile has a body of a first polymer compound and at least one skin overmolded onto the support member core from a second polymer compound. The compounds may be different from each other in hardness and/or color. Crush pads are formed from the first polymer and are disposed to be below the general lower surface of the tile. The crush pads provide a tight overmold shutoff and prevent flashing of the second polymer compound when the support member is formed.

  • Publication number: 20130093116
    Abstract: A modular plastic floor tile is formed by molding a body of a first polymer compound and overmolding features onto the body from a second polymer compound. The compounds may be different from each other in hardness and/or color. The overmolded features may include skins on the sides and bottoms of support member cores disposed below the tile lower surface.

  • Publication number: 20130029079
    Abstract: A cut-to-fit universal vehicle floor mat has arrays of peripheral cells separated from each other and from a central area of the mat body by indented trim lines. The cells are formed by intersections of the trim lines, and a cell may have convexly curved transition segment between a longitudinal trim line outboard of the cell and a transverse trim line.
