NOV. S. J. SIEGEL FLOOR COVERING Filed April 1925 INVENTOR ATTORNEY Patented Nov. 24, 1925.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
SAMUEL J. SIEGEL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.,
ASSIGNOR TO J. B. CAMPBELL MANUFAC- TUBING (10., OF SALEM, NEW JERSEY, A CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY.
FLOOR COVERING.
Application filed April 3, 1925.
To all whom z't-may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL J. SIEGEL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the borough of Manhattan, city, county, and State of New York (whose post-olfice address is 817 lVest End Avenue, New York city), have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Floor Coverings, of which the following is a specification.
My present invention relates generally to the-method of surface ornamentation by deposition or other surface treatment for the purpose of producing a predetermined unit to serve as a floor covering and more partieularly to such manner of treatment whereby the predetermined unit is made to simulate a woven fabric.
Designs made on flat surfaces permit of easy ornamentation of design of definite scheme so as to make the same continuous without any difficulty due to the inherent sur-- face and character of the material. The ease with which designs are effected on flat surfaces introduces into articles of the nature to which this invention relates, the objectionable feature of giving flat appearance without any depth, and the ornamental effect that is given to simulate real rugs is lost for this reason.
Floor covering of compositions such as felt base are now made in units of predetermined dimensions so as to form what is at present known as rugs, and one of the difliculties that arises when a materlal of this character in which ornamentation is pro:
duced by surface treatment is made to simulate a rug, is the fact that the fringe characteristic of the rug is absent in a floor covering in which the ornamentation is produced by surface treatment.
One of the objects of my invention is the provision of ornamentation of such a character that the rug appearance is simulated by the association therewith of terminal portions which give the appearance which is generally found on rugs by reason of the excess warp threads being made up into knots in an orderly arrangement such as fringes or the like.
I have found that one of the characteristics of the fringe which has become associated with it is theeifect produced by the presence of separate or spaced design por tlons and one of the objects of my invention is the manner 'of'treating the terminalpor- Serial no. 20,449.
tions of a linoleum or felt base rug so as to produce in such end portions a similar effect, so that the article will resemble a rug not only in its size, and its general surface treatment, but also in the presence of end terminal portions to simulate the fringes.
This object I attain generally by the use of a surface treatment in which there are colored portions predeterminedly spaced transversely of the terminal edges of the rug to simulate the fringes thus separated by portions which gives the effect of depth by background coloring such as black.
A' further object of my invention is the simulation of woven effects by giving to fiat ornamental designs, depth or contrast and woven effects by discontinuity of design by incorporating background colored portions in the generaldesign in the form of mesh representations of coarsely woven fabric.
A still further object of my invention is the provision of floor coverin s of the linoleuin or felt base type which simulate woven rugs or carpets.
lo attain these objects andsuch further ob ects as may appear or be hereinafter pointed out, I make reference to the accompanying drawing forming a part hereof, in which Fig. 1 is a plan View of a complete rug as made by my process;
Fig. 2 is an enlargement of a portion of the fringe of the rug shown in Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawing, 10 is a floor covering made of linoleum or impregnated.
same and terminal fringe portions 13 all.
framed within background colored portions at opposite ends.
In the production of the rug of the linoleum type as practised by my invention, there is added in addition to the unitary varicolored design which is either printed, embossed or inlaid, terminal portions of a length and size of the fringe customarily found in woven rugs. To give to the main body portion 10 the appearance of a woven fabric, I ornament these terminal or end portions by giving the same the appearance of-a fringe. v
The fringe is produced by the combination of geometrical forms of various contrast colored portions and interposed background colored portions. This fringe is located in shape of the open mesh material.
combined full colored portions having that the mesh portions direct contact with the border 12 and is produced by a series of ornamental markings of full colored portions 15 having spaced portions of background colors 16 of a size and of coarsely woven A second series then follows of adjacent thereto a shaded colored portion 17, groups of such portions 15 and 17 having spaced therebetween background colored markings 15 of the size and shape of coarsely woven material. The series so made have the background colors or mesh portions related to each other in a staggered manner so 16 occupy positions in each progressive line as the mesh portions of a woven material. The'series so made has added thereto-subsequent series of light full colored portionsand dark shaded portions spaced by black or background colored portions, the size'and shape of each of the portions thus described varying progressively to increased size towards the terminal edge 18 and proportionately decreas. ing in number. Following such series or combined series alternated as desired, there are lengths of fringed portions 19 separated from each other by linear background colored portions which run into the terminal edge colored portion 13 similarly colored.
It will be observedthat the undulation or waved effects are given to the fringe by full colored portions interposed by shaded colors varying in size and depth as the undulations and waves of the tassels of the fringes of rugs.
progressively knotted The efiect above produced, it will be observed by progressively increasing the size of the background colored portions, is to produce the effect found in the fringe in woven rugs in which the warp threads are forming between the knotted material, k not-meshes and, in the tassels thus formed, tassel spaces, the fringe between the tassels being colored similar to the background and terminate in the terminal edge 13, at the edge of the tassels, giving the efiect of depth and body to the colored port-ions, thus producing the optical illusion of tassels. The combined effect is to give said peripheral to the ornamental unit" 11 the appearance of awoven rug rather than the fiat appearance characteristic of linoleum products having ordinary surface ornamentation. g
It will also be observed that the process of ornamentation such as I have adopted is particularly suited for direct printing by a single stamping or by a process wherem applicators having the various-colors that are necessary, may be progressively applied in a manner similar to the operation of a J acquard loom.
It will thus be observed that I have not only devised an entirely new and novel form. r
of product, but have also provided a simple, novel and inexpensive method of giving to flat linoleum floor coverings of the felt base type the appearance of a woven product.
Having thus described my invention and illustrated its use, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is: 1. The process which comprises ornamentingfloor covering of linoleum or the like to give the same the appearance of woven ma terial,by arranging the dominant unitary design in the form of disconnected design, predetermined markings spaced and shaped corresponding to a coarse weave fabric and interposing the intermediate spaces with contrasting background colors of the size and form corresponding to the apertures of a coarsely woven fabric and applying background colors at spaces-interposed between contrasting port1ons of the unitary design to simulate. a fringe and give depth to the same.
2. A floor covering of linoleum or the like in the form of a rug, comprising a main design unit, terminal portions simulating a fringe, comprising contrasting'colored portions interposed by background colored portions' in the form of woven mesh portions, knot-mesh portions and fringed tassel spaces, and a background colored edge formed on the periphery of the entire unit, said fringed tassel spaced colored portion terminating in edge.
In witness whereof, I have signed this specification, this 18th day of March, 1925.
