20150375471 | FLOOR PLANK WITH FOAM CORE - The floor member has a closed-cell foam core that constitutes approximately 50% of the overall thickness of the floor member. All constituents of the floor member, including a design layer, wear layer and resilient foam plastic underlayer, are highly water resistant and essentially water repellant. The closed-cell foam core is relatively lightweight and the floor member is also relatively lightweight compared to equally dimensioned floor planks formed exclusively of solid laminated plastic materials or wood-based laminated materials. The floor member has edge connecting means for convenient floating floor installation without the need to adhere the floor member to a floor base. The floor member is also easy to handle to permit a do-it-yourselfer to install a floor covering with the floor member. | 12-31-2015 |
20140283479 | FIBROUS PLASTIC CEILING TILE - The multi-purpose tile is formed solely of randomly arranged and uniformly distributed non-woven plastic fibers. The non-woven plastic fibers are fused together without a binder and compressed while in a heated state to establish a predetermined thickness of the tile. The tile is flexible, self-supporting and non-collapsible, and can be installed as a lay-in ceiling tile on a grid for use as a suspended ceiling, or bonded directly to a ceiling, or bonded directly to a wall. | 09-25-2014 |
20130269280 | CEILING PLANK - An elongated generally rectangular ceiling plank formed of wood or plastic composition and has opposite elongated side edges with a length that is between nine and ten times the width of the opposite end edges. The ceiling plank includes complementary tongue and groove engagement portions formed at the sides and ends for side-by-side or end-to-end engagement with other similar planks. In a ceiling plank installation a ceiling plank securement clip secures the side groove portion of one plank to a ceiling. The secured plank can be joined to another plank in side-by-side or end-to-end engagement at a ceiling by interengagement with the tongue portion at the side or end of the other plank. The ceiling plank is approximately forty-eight inches long and five inches wide and can thus be easily handled and installed by one person. | 10-17-2013 |
20130086862 | FLEXIBLE FLOOR MEMBER WITH A SURFACE DECLINATION AND BEVELED EDGES - The floor member, in one embodiment of the invention, is a floor member unit having a surface declination at the periphery of a top surface and extending downwardly to a peripheral beveled edge, and intersecting with the beveled edge between the top surface and a bottom surface. The surface declination can be curved or uncurved. In another embodiment of the invention the floor member unit is laminated in offset relationship to an underlayer of the same size and shape as the floor member unit. In either embodiment, the floor member can be formed as a floor tile or a floor plank. | 04-11-2013 |
20130055665 | FLOOR MEMBER WITH A HIGH FRICTION BOTTOM SURFACE - The floor member has a top surface for walking upon and a bottom surface for placement on a floor base as part of a floating floor installation. The floor member includes a flexible plastic main substrate layer that is sandwiched between a flexible plastic wear layer and a bottom portion formed of meltable adhesive material. The meltable adhesive material has an exposed bottom surface that is the bottom surface of the floor member. The exposed bottom surface is non-adhesive and non-tacky at normal room temperatures. The meltable adhesive material has frictional properties that enable the floor member to resist manual sliding movement on a floor base but still permit manual sliding movement, thereby providing the floor member with positional stability when placed on a floor base as part of a floating floor installation. | 03-07-2013 |
