Abstract: A flooring system in contact with a floor includes a foam pad having an upper surface and a lower surface, and having a tapered section having a slope. The flooring system also includes a coating of a primer material disposed upon at least the slope of the tapered section of the upper surface of the foam pad. A coating of an adhesive is disposed upon at least the coating of the primer material. The flooring system also includes a covering where at least a portion of a surface of the covering is in contact with the coating of adhesive.

Abstract: The present invention provides a cushioned impervious flooring usually formed in place. At least one layer of closed cell cushion is overlaid with a reinforcing mesh having interstitial spaces, a layer of adhesive is applied to adhere the reinforcing mesh to the cushion and to adhere the reinforcing layer to a layer of sheet flooring. Tapered edges provide gentle transition from the cushioned impervious flooring to adjacent surfaces at a different elevation. Joints in the closed cell cushion, reinforcing layer and sheet flooring are offset from each other to provide smooth installation and more strength.

Abstract: A carpet mat assembly with shock absorbing properties includes a mat made of closed cell foam sections. The mat sections are sized to be readily portable, preferably 4 foot by 6 foot in size. The mat thickness is selected to conform to ASTM F1292-99. Preferably, the mat thickness is 1⅛″ thick. The mat section may be coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive on one side of the mat. The pressure sensitive adhesive is covered with a removable liner. The liner is removed to expose the pressure sensitive adhesive. Carpet is applied to the coated surface of the mat and the pressure sensitive adhesive bonds the carpet to the mat. The outer perimeters of each mat may be lined with a hook and pile fastener such as 3M Velcro® for attaching multiple sections of the carpet mat assembly securely together.

Abstract: A carpet mat assembly with shock absorbing properties includes a mat made of closed cell foam sections. The mat sections are sized to be readily portable, preferably 4 ft by 6 ft in size. The mat thickness is selected to conform to ASTM F1292-96. Preferably, the mat thickness is 11/8" thick. The mat section is coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive covering on one side of the mat. The pressure sensitive adhesive is covered with a removable liner. The liner is removed to expose the pressure sensitive adhesive. Carpet is applied to the coated surface of the mat and the pressure sensitive adhesive bonds the carpet to the mat. The outer perimeters of each mat may be lined with 3M Velcro.RTM. for attaching multiple sections of the carpet mat assembly securely together. On the outer perimeter of mat sections not joined to other mat sections, an edge molding preferably made from the same closed cell foam, may be attached to the mat with a contact adhesive, or by other means.
