Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented duly a, an.
application filed May t, 1917. Serial No. 166,302.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that 1, CHARLES ABAR'rLnrr, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Edwardsville, in the county of Madison and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Floor- Coverings, of which the following is a specification containing a full, clear, and exact description, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention relates to improvements in floor coverings wherein a textile fabric is partially embedded in and surfaced on one side with a flexible and waterproof 1 material, and my object is to provide a floor covering, whose exposed surface is a textile fabric, which may be of any desired weave or pattern, and which fabric is set in a body of flexible and waterproof material, which renders the floor covering, impervious to dust and dirt, causes the covering to adhereto the floor in order to obviate dangerous and annoying skidding.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, which will be made clear, my invention consists in the novel construction which will be fully, clearly and concisely set forth in my specification, pointed out in my claims and illustrated by the accompanying drawing, in which the figure is a frag nental sectional elevation, on an enlarged scale of a floor covering embodying my invention.
Referring to the drawing by numerals, 1 designates the weft threads, 2 the warp threads, and 3 the pile.
While l have shown the fabric to be-a out pile texture, l in no sense wish to be limited to this form of fabric as l contemplate the use of fabric with loosely woven woof or weft strands as well as fabrics having a between the covering and the door. And,
further by preference, the flexible waterproof body is extended beyond the fabric,
in order to protect the margins of the fabric and this extended margin of the body is beveled to obviate abrupt margins which would tend to obstruct the movement of articlesof household furnishings thereover. Such a floor covering by reason of its bemg impervious to dust and dirt, keeps the floor in a perfectly dustless and clean condition, and hence the necessity of ftaking up the covering for purposes of cleaning is al-. most wholly eliminated, and by reason of the waterproof body embedding the major portion of the fabric, the dust and dirt may be readily removed, because it is confined only in the relatively open pile or nap.
Such a floor covering may be readily cleansed by washing as by a stream of Water, the relatively smooth under surface of waterproof material, which will dry rapidly permits the covering to be laid soon after washing, while the pile or nap is still wet, if desired, which pile or nap will quickly dry after the coveringis laid, by reason of 1ts being relatively open to permit free circulation of air therethrough.
By preference, that portion of the body d which projects beyond the fabric has a plane and smooth underneath surface, which prevents dust, dirt, and water from worhi its way under the covering. Difierent sine floor coverings, such as rugs, etc. may be made according to my invention, which is especially adapted for bath room rugs, porch rugs, hall strips, and stair covering, etc.
A floor covering when constructed according to my invention has the general appearance of the ordinary carpet or floor covering, but possesses the advantages hereinbefore mentioned.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is I 1. A floor covering comprising a body of impervious material provided on its underneath surface with a series of undulations, and a woven fabric embedded in said body of impervious material sufficiently to completely cover the weft and warp threads of said fabric and leaving the pile of said fabric projecting through and extending above the top surface of said material.
2. A floor covering comprising a body of impervious material provided on its underneath surface with a series of undulations a woven fabric embedded in said body of impervious material suficiently to completely cover the weft and warp threads of said fabric. and leaving the pile of said fabric projecting through and extending above the top surface of said material, and an impervious margin for said covering completely surrounding the fabric and having a plain lower face.
3. A floor covering comprising a body of impervious material provided on its underneath surface with a series of undulations a woven fabric embedded in said body of impervious material sufficiently to completely cover the weft and warp threads of said fabric and leaving the pile of said fabric projecting through and extending above the top surface of said material, and an impervious margin for said covering com pletely surrounding the fabric and having a plain lower face and beveled upper face.
4. A floor covering comprising a body of impervious material, a woven fabric having a tufted or nappy surface, said woven fabric being embedded in the body of the impervious material to such an extent that the body of imperviousmaterial completely surrounds the fabric sufiiciently as to leave only a portion of the tufted or nappy surface ex used, the said impervious materlal complete y surrounding the outer margins of the floor covering.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in presence of two-subscribing witnesses.
