  • Floor cover, especially sports field cover
    Patent number: 5749787
    Abstract: A floor covering, in particular for sport fields, based on elastic plastics, has a substantially flat top side on which one can walk and a bottom side spaced apart therefrom. The covering has an anisotropic elasticity in the desired running direction, so that it dampens more strongly the impact of a shoe of a runner running on the top side in the desired direction than the impact of the shoe of a runner running on the top side in the opposite direction.
