Abstract

A synthetic turf surface for golf courses, tennis courts and other grass-surfaced game playing fields is formed of a synthetic grass carpet having a flexible base sheet (14) with closely spaced-apart upright, blade-like strands (12) of plastic material forming a dense grass-like surface. The carpet is supported upon a cushioning underpad (18) which is formed of a thick, molded sheet of open cell, expanded bead polypropylene. The resiliently compressible polypropylene underpad combined with the synthetic grass carpet closely simulates the feel of a natural grass covered playing surface.

INVENTEUR : ALAIN LEMIEUX
CESSIONNAIRE : 2752-3273 Québec inc GAZON SYNTHÉTIQUE DE COMPOSITION SPÉCIFIQUE
L'invention consiste à utiliser en combinaison, un gazon synthétique de composition spécifique , renforcé et collé, à l'aide d'une couche de polyuréthane liquide, à une base de The Commissioner of Patents INHENTION PATENT REQUEST
FOR INFORMAL DEPOSIT IN CANADA
INVENTOR: ALAIN LEMIEUX
ASSIGNANT: 2752-3273 Québec inc SYNTHETIC GRASS OF SPECIFIC COMPOSITION
The invention consists in using in combination, a synthetic grass of composition specific, reinforced and bonded, using a layer of liquid polyurethane, to a base of

2" d'épaisseur en polypropylène. Ä des endroits stratégiques, ladite surface de gazon est pourvue de feriteS permettant l 'insertion de "tees" dans ladite base jtexible, gui les maintient en place comme dans tes terrains naturels) de la largeur d'un trait de scie sur des longueurs variées. Ces fentes sont fabriquées sur la largeur du produit dans le sens du tissage des fibres.
Ce système sert de tapis de frappe pour la pratique du golf (coups frappés (drive) ainsi que les coups de fers) et aussi comme tertre de départ pour les terrains de golf et même pour les allées ("fairway").
PARTICULARITÉS
1. Tertre de golf et tapis de frappe;
L'invention permet ~ l'utilisation de vrais "tees' ;
~ aux bâtons (surtout les fers) de passer sous la balle en glissant dans la fibre sans offrir de résistance indue, reproduisant la sensation de soulever une motte de gazon sur un "fairway" naturel. (Ce qui permet aux joueurs d'utiliser ses fers dans un élan complet avec le bon angle sans avoir à subir des chocs et des vibrations désagréables et nuisibles aux bBtons).
2. Tapis d'allée ( "fairway" ); L'invention permet ~ d'amortir la balle à l'impact et de lui permettre de continuer à rouler sans modifier sa trajectoire;
~ aux bâtons (surtout les fers) de passer sous la balle en glissant dans la fibre sans offrir de résistance indue, reproduisant la sensation de soulever une motte de gazon sur un "fairway" naturel.
COMPOSANTES:
1. Gazon , thétique:
~ Fibre synthétique 100% polypropylène;
~ Hauteur variant entre 5/8" et 7/8" selon l'utilisation sportive désirée;
~ Normes de tissage:
~ 3 600 à S 700 deniers;
~ 6 points au pouce;
~ 3/16 jauge;
~ densité variant entre 34 et 42 onces par verge carré de matériel..
2. Coussin d'absorption:
Conçu d'un soigneux mélange de billes de polypropylène expansées, moulées à la chaleur et à la pression. Cette polymérisation produit un coussin d'absorption de 2"
d'épaisseur, dont la propriété particulière est de se comprimer et de dissiper dans sa propre matière (un peu comme 1e fait le sol naturel> une grande partie de l'énergie reçue lors de l'impact. 2 "thick polypropylene. At strategic locations, said surface of grass is provided with ferites allowing the insertion of "tees" in said base jtexible, mistletoe keeps them in place as in your natural land) the width of a saw cut on various lengths. These slits are made across the width of the product in the weaving direction of the fibers.
This system serves as a striking mat for playing golf (strokes (drive) as well as iron strokes) and also as a tee off for golf courses and even for fairways.
SPECIAL FEATURES
1. Golf mound and striking mat;
The invention allows ~ the use of real "tees";
~ sticks (especially irons) pass under the ball by sliding in the fiber without offering resistance undue, reproducing the sensation of lifting a sod on a natural "fairway". (What allows players to use their irons in full swing at the right angle without having to suffer shocks and unpleasant vibrations harmful to concrete).
2. Fairway carpet; The invention allows ~ cushion the ball on impact and allow it to continue driving without changing its trajectory;
~ sticks (especially irons) pass under the ball by sliding in the fiber without offering resistance undue, reproducing the sensation of lifting a sod on a natural "fairway".
COMPONENTS:
1. Grass, aesthetic:
~ 100% synthetic polypropylene fiber;
~ Height varying between 5/8 "and 7/8" depending on the desired sports use;
~ Weaving standards:
~ 3,600 to S 700 denier;
~ 6 points per inch;
~ 3/16 gauge;
~ density varying between 34 and 42 ounces per square yard of equipment..
2. Absorption cushion:
Designed with a careful mix of expanded polypropylene beads, molded with heat and pressure. This polymerization produces an absorption cushion 2 "
thick, the particular property of which is to compress and dissipate in his own material (much like natural soil> much of the energy received upon impact.

3. Renforcement:
L'endos de ladite surface de gazon synthétique est enduit d'une couche d'environ 1/8" d'épaisseur d'un adhésif de polyuréthane liquide. Cet adhésif sert de lien entre la surface et la base de polypropylène et pénètre dans les boucles du tissage des fibres pour les renforcer contre les déchirures causées par l'impact des bâtons.
1i16~7.88691Bm1amDoc 97-06-0913:49 3. Reinforcement:
The back of said synthetic turf surface is coated with a layer about 1/8 "thick with liquid polyurethane adhesive. This adhesive serves as link between polypropylene surface and base and penetrates the loops of the weaving of fibers to reinforce them against tears caused by the impact of sticks.
