Application filed. May 124, 1917. Serial No. 168,283.
. a citizenof the United States of America,
residing at New York city, county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Floor-Coverings, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description. I
This invention relates to improvements in floor-coverings,.and to a method of producing same, the object of the invention being to provide a durable, artistic as well as a comparatively inexpensive floor-covering, one of the features of which is the method of rendering the same water-proof by specially treating the back thereof.
My improved floor-covering is made preferably out of a yieldable anti-fibrous composition that can be embossed and which can be calendered upon a backing of fibrous material, said backin adding strength to the composition to reslst wear and tear. The composition out of which a part of my 1mproved floor-covering is made up comprises oxidized linseed oil, clay, rosin, gum and coloring pigments, if desirable. The component parts of the composition are formed into a homogeneous mass, that is to say, worked together, after which they are applied to an absorbent backing, such as cloth, paper, fiber, or the like. To apply the composition to the back, I pass same, together with the backing, through pressure rollers and force the composition and backing to gether, thereby causing the back and said composition to adhere one to the other sufficiently to strengthen or reinforce the same,
' whereby tearing of the somewhat more delicate composition is resisted. When the floorcovering is completed, that is to say, when the backing and facing are applied one to the other, an extremely durable article is produced.
My improved article differs from the ordinary floor-covering, such as oil cloth or the like, in that the back and facing are two separate elements which are forced together by pressure and not intermingled or interwoven. The backing referred to is not a binder in the sense that it i mixed with the composition, but is rather an outside layer which can be readily waterproofed.
W The waterproofing of the backing of my improved floor-covering is another feature of my invention. After the backing is applied to the facing, or hereinbefore referred to compositiom'lf apply to the backing some waterproofing compound, such as waterproof paint or the like. Various waterproofing compounds can be used.
The facing of my improved floor-covering can be colored the same throughout by adding the proper coloring matter to the other elements of the composition while they are being mixed or puddled.
To produce an attractive as well as a durable covering, I may emboss the facing, that is to say, pass same over or under a roller having an engraved surface. After the facing has been embossed, said facing or rather the raised portions thereof, can be colored to contrast with the depressed portions of the facing. By reason of the fact that the facing is embossed, the depressed body porti'on of the facing will not get any wear until the embossed or raised portions have worn down.
A floor-covering made after my improved method forms a good grip for the feet, the same as the raised portions of a safety tread tire affords a good grip on the road, and is therefore to a large extent anti-slipping, far more so, however, than a smooth surface such as is ofi'ered by oil cloth.
The accompanying drawing, which is, a sectional view of a floor-covering embodying my improvements, illustrates one manner of carrying out my invention. In the said drawing, the hereinbefore mentioned facing is indicated by the numeral 1, and the backing therefor by the numeral 2. The numeral 3 indicates the body portion of the covering. while 4 indicates the raised portions of the facing. The raised portions 4 protect the body-portion 3 from wear, and hence, the facing will be long lived for two reasons, one being the fact that the covering, as a whole, will be flexible, thereby reducing to a minimum the chances of cracking, during handling, the other being that the embossed or raised portions will take all the wear. Furthermore, the waterproof backing will prevent moisture from the floor soaking into the facing which would tend to deteriorate the covering.
What I claim as my invention is:
1. A floor covering comprising a backing of paper, one face of which is coated with a water-proofing composition, the other face of said backing having impressed thereon a composition of oxidized linseed oil, clay, resinous material and coloring pigment.
2. A floor covering comprising affibrous backing, one face of which is coated with a water-proofing composition, the other face of said backing havin impressed thereon a, composition of linseed oil, clay and resin ous material.
3. A floor-covering, comprising. a backin of paper, one face of which has impresse thereon a composition of oxidized linseed oil, clay, rosin m and a colorin pigment, 10 the other face f said backingbe i ng coated with a water-proofing composltion.
Signed at New York city, N. Y., this 10 day of May, 1917.
