This invention relates to installation methods for a multi-component floor mat. The floor mat typically contains a textile component and a base component. Alignment and deployment of the textile component with the base component in an efficient manner is described herein.

A treadable mat comprises at least one sanitisation portion (10; 110) treadable by a user and provided with sanitisation means suitable to dispense a sanitising substance. The sanitisation portion comprises a treadable support surface (14). The sanitisation means are housed in a sanitisation seat (16) formed in the sanitisation portion below said support surface 14. The sanitisation means comprise at least one tank (22; 120) containing the sanitising substance, at least one dispensing nozzle (24; 122) in fluidic communication with said tank (22; 120), said dispensing nozzle having an open end on said support surface, and actuator means (30; 130) operable to generate a spray or a vaporized or nebulised jet of the sanitising substance in the presence of a sanitisation command signal.

A dedusting and cleaning device for shoe sole includes a scrubbing device (2), and the scrubbing device (2) comprises an inner core (6), a scrubbing disc (14) and a scrubbing core (22). The inner core (6) is placed in the scrubbing slot (15) of the scrubbing disc (14) and the upper surface of the inner core (6) is of grid shape, and the inner core (6) is provided with a friction area on its upper surface, and the scrubbing core (22) is clamped on the inner core (6) and the scrubbing head (4) of the scrubbing core (22) is exposed out of a mounting slot of scrubbing head (10) in the friction area on the upper surface of the inner core (6), and the mounting slot of scrubbing head (10) has a clamping structure.

A footwear mat assembly for preventing arthropods from entering footwear stored thereon includes a base including a base top surface including a footwear storage location adapted to receive a pair of footwear, and a raised barrier including a barrier bottom surface adhesively and removably secured to the base top surface, a barrier top surface carrying an arthropod-securing adhesive composition layer, and a barrier inner perimeter defining an opening adapted to receive the pair of footwear therethrough for placement on the footwear storage location.

A shoe sole sanitizing assembly includes a housing that has a bottom wall, a top wall and a perimeter wall. The top wall has an opening extending therethrough. A cylinder is rotatably mounted to the housing and extends through the opening. An outer surface of the cylinder is comprised of an adsorptive material. A sanitizing fluid is positioned within the housing and the adsorptive material is in contact with the fluid. The sanitizing fluid coats the cylinder and applies the sanitizing fluid to a bottom of a shoe sole when the shoe sole is moved across the cylinder while the cylinder rotates relative to the housing.

Doormat assembly comprising a base including a central area and a peripheral area surrounding the central area, a frame assembly formed separately from the base and forming a frame with a central opening for exposing the central area of the base, and a removable insert unsecured to the base and sized to fit within the central opening of the frame assembly so as to cover the central area of the base, wherein the frame assembly comprises a plurality of side members and a plurality of corner portions engaged with the side members to form the frame, and wherein the removable insert is removable through the central opening in the frame and replaceable.

This invention relates to a washable multi-component floor mat. The floor mat contains a textile component and a base component. The textile component and the base component are attached to one another by at least one surface attraction means and at least one edge attachment means. The textile component is designed to be soiled, washed, and re-used, thereby providing ideal end-use applications in areas such as building entryways. The present invention eliminates the need to wash the base component of the floor mat which results in environmental, cost and labor conservation.

This invention relates to a washable floor mat comprising a reinforcement layer. The floor mat includes a textile component and a base component. The textile component contains a reinforcement layer which dramatically reduces and/or eliminates edge deformation that often occurs as a result of the washing process. The textile component and the base component may be joined together to form a single piece floor mat. Alternatively, the textile component and the base component may be releasably attachable to one another by at least one surface attraction means to form a multi-component floor mat. The floor mat is designed to be soiled, washed, and re-used, thereby providing ideal end-use applications in areas such as building entryways.
