ll Claim:
This invention relates generally to floor covcringe and refers more particularly to flexible floor mats of the type employed to cover the flooring of vehicle bodies.
@rie cl the principal objects of this invention consists in the provision of a floor mat having a flexible wear resisting covering sheet embossed to orovlde a recess in the underside of suficlent dimension to receive a resilient pad and having an insulating sheet united to the underside of the lmother advantageous ieatureoi this invert- .tioo. consists in the provision of a door mat of character set forth in the preceding parawherein the covering sheet provided marginal edge portion preformed to in ,larie of the flooring more the recess in underside of mat, and wherein the door es log surface of the insulating sheet on do of the padding lies in a common plane The ed 1 gzortioo of the mat.
re more apparent as this description proceeds, olly "when considered in connection mpaoylog drawing, wherein Figure l is a plan view of a floor mat constructed ccordaoce with this invention;
ire 2 is a sectional view talzeo substantially a door mat fill having a fi 'sihle r coverlhg'sheet ll and having a l2 preferably, although not necessarily, L arieotly secured to the underside oi the ll. the or sent instance, the iiexi ole covering ll 5 shown as comprising a sheet oi mllcaoisohle moierlal having an ornamented top surface, and having a marginal portion is of sui able lorozdog a border for the met.
&5 fierdhle covering sheet ii is preferably preformed or vulcanized to the contour thereoi shown in Figure 2 of the drawing and, as will he observed from thisc latter figure, the central or body portion of the covering is embossed during the forming operation to provide a recess iii in theunderside of the covering of sufficient depth to, completely receive the padding it. In other 1 words, the depth of the recess is substantially equal to the thickness of the padding, so 6 the door engaglzig surface of the padding lies in shove, as Well other objects, will he,
a common plane with the door engaging surface of the marginal portion 035, and this is desirable since it permits the marginal portion to lie flat upon the flooring covered by the mat. Toe padding i2 is of such a nature as to form a highly resilient foundation for the flexible coveriog sheet l l, and the height of the embossed portion is predetermined to permit the use of a padding sumciently thick .to impart the desired solt yielding tread to the mat. In detail the padding l2 comprises a layer it of fibrous material and an insulating sheet it forming a hacking for the layer it. As will he observed from Figure 3, the layer it of fibrous material is relatively thick and the material from which the some is formed is selected to not only impart 'masimumresilieocy to the tread on the mat, but to also ah'ord are eficient insulation against sound andheat. The haclologsheet l s is preferably formed of ruhherarid not only assists the layer is is edectlvely insulating the mat against the passage of heat and sound therethrough, but in addition, serves to weatherproof the fibrous material to a certain extent. In order to provide an integral mat construction, the layer of fibrous material it is permanently secured to the underside of the emhossed pordoii of the flezdhle sheet ii and the hacking it is permanently secured on the underside the fibrous material, so as to engage the flooring adapted to he covered by the mat.
For the purpose of illustration, the door mat is featured in association with the drivers com oartrceot oi a motor vehicle and accordingly, the
at is suitahly apertured at predetermined points for of the various vehicle controls theretmough. Upon reference to Figure 2, it will he noted that the apertures through the mat are also provided marginal edge portions adapt ed to engage the flooring in such a manner as to conceal the padding to.
Tllllii; from the foregoing, it will he ohserved that we have provided a door mat possessing a highly resilient tread and presenting a neat and eluding rubber secured to and coextensive with one face of the layer of fibrous material, said base layer constituting the floor engaging surface, and a preformed cover of wear-resisting material of uniform thickness and of greater area than the layer of fibrous material secured to the other face of the layer of fibrous material and having marginal portions free of the fibrous material and base layer extending downwardly beyond the v
