EDWARD W. HARRAL, 0F BBIDGEIORT, CONNECTICUT.
ANTISLIPPING DEVICE FOR BUGS.
T 0 all 'whom t may concern Be it known that I, EDWARD W. I-IfiRRAL, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Bridgeport, county of Fairfield, State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Antislipping Devices for Rugs; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as. will enable others skilled in the yart to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The present invention pertains to an 1mproved antislipping device for rugs, the construction and advantages of which will be hereinafter set forth, reference being had to the annexed drawings, wherein Figure l is a perspective view of a rug and floor, with the improved underlay or antislipping member shown in operative relation therewith, the rug being partly broken away; Fig. 2 a perspective view of the underlay with one corner turned up to expose its under surface; and Fig. 3 a similar view of al modified form of underlay.
Rugs, as is well known, unless they are permanently attached to a floor, have a tendency to slide and slip, particularly so if the floor presents a polished, glazed, or highlyfinished surface, and such shifting of position is at once dangerous to life and limb, as well as annoying to the householder.
Various means, other than permanent attachment of the rug to the floor, which, of course, is objectionable and oftentimes impossible, have been devised and employed, among others beingv a binder formed of rubber and attached to the ends vof the rug; and also rubber strips, usually presenting to the floor a corrugated or roughened surface, which strips are sewed or otherwise attached to the under face Aof the rug. Such structures are more or less effective, but are open to certain objections, the main one, as to the former, being that it is unsightly and cumbersome, while as to the latter it usually presents one or more decided ridges owing to the thickness of the material necessarily employed, and as to both that they have to be permanently secured to the rug. Furthermore, they are not wholly eective, where the drag on the rug takes place at any point on the rug surface, other than over such devices.
Under the present invention, it is proposed to use what may be termed an under- Specfxcation of Letters Patent.
Patented May 9, 1916.
Application led November 20, 1914. Serial No. 873,185.
lay placed below therug and resting upon the floor free of any permanent attachment to either the rug or floor, but presenting to each a friction surface or face which will prevent relative movement of the underlay to the floor and of the rug to the underlay. Consequently', the rug remains at rest where placed even when subjected to the scu'ting of ones feet or the dragging or sliding of an article of furniture thereover.
In Figs. l and 2, l. denotes the floor, 2 the rug, and 3 the underlay, which, as will be noted, is substantially coextensive of the rug, but stops short of the sides and ends thereof. Said underlay, see Fig. 2, is preferably formed of duck or other suit-able fabric, having one side, its under face, treated with rubber, the upper surface or that which contacts with the rug, being left in its natural or untreated condition. rIhere is thus produced an underlay for the rug, the upper face of which presents a surface which frictionally holds the rug against any relative sliding movement, while the under face t presents a face having a friction surface which prevents relative sliding or slipping movement with reference to the floor. In actual and somewhat extended use, the device has proven highly eflicient and, being relatively thin, produces no appreciable ridges upon the face of the rug, and in fact is unnoticeable. Furthermore, the housekeeper may easily clean the rug, as there is nothing attached to it. rIhe underlay may also be readily cleaned.
In Fig. 3 a slightly modified form of underlay is disclosed, the fabric in this instance being provided upon its upper surface with a series of relatively heavy cords 5, Woven in during the process of weaving the cloth. lIhe under surface is the same as in the former construction. This underlay will be found particularly ellicient with light rugs. v
The material is produced in large sheets and so sold to the retailer, usually the rug dealer, who cuts it up to the desired sizes, where the rugs are small, and in the case of large rugs a plurality of strips will be employed, in which instance the adjacent edges of the strips will preferably be overlapped.
In the employment of the term rubber in the specification and claims it is not meant to restrict the invention to pure rubber, but
to include rubber compounds or any other material which will effect a proper cohesion between the underlay and the floor surface.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is:
1. In combination with a r'ug, an underlay therefor presenting two frictional faces, one adapted to hold the rug against relative sliding movement with reference to the underlay, while the other is adapted to similarly hold the underlay with reference to the surface of the floor.
2. An underlay for rugs, comprising a sheet of Woven material presenting on one face an anti-slipping, frictional surface for the rug, and having that face which isdesigned to Contact with the floor treated with EDWARD W. HARRAL.
