SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COLORING TOP SURFACE OF CLADDINGS AND CONCRETE PAVING STONES
An apparatus for spraying fluid phase color is integrated into a cladding manufacturing machine and synchronized with the manufacturing process. The apparatus is attached to the basket through which the concrete of the claddings is poured into a mould; color spraying initiates after completing the concrete filling phase of the manufacturing of the cladding and the basket retreats to its starting point. Color guns, attached to the basket, connect to color buckets and pump and condensed air pumps to deliver sprayed fluid color onto the top surface of the claddings. A control unit controls the color spraying via a sequential, parallel or pre-selected program or set of values of parameters that determine the final design or pattern on the claddings surface.
Methods for polishing inorganic substrates
A method for treating a surface of inorganic flooring (e.g., concrete, terrazzo, or a ceramic) includes applying a composition that includes a silicate to a surface of the inorganic flooring and, while the composition is present on the surface, polishing the surface. The silicate may be a lithium polysilicate and/or a colloidal silica. The composition may further include a surfactant and/or a leveling agent. When the composition is applied to the surface of the inorganic flooring, gravity may enable it to spread substantially evenly across the surface. The acts of applying and polishing may be repeated. Such a treatment may result in a surface that has a glossiness that reflects at least about 80% of incident light when the incident light is directed toward the composition at an angle of 60° to the surface.

WALK-ON LAMINATED SAFETY GLASS PANE HAVING AN ANTI-SLIP SURFACE
A walk-on laminated safety glass pane having an anti-slip surface is decribed. The laminated safety glass pane includes at least two glass panes, which are permanently bonded to each other using a polymeric layer.
A polymeric intermediate layer is applied to one surface of the laminated safety glass pane.
A glass pane having an anti-slip surface is applied to the polymeric intermediate layer.
An elastic polymeric gasket is inserted circumferentially in the edge region of the polymeric intermediate layer.
The laminated safety glass pane has a drilled hole and the drilled hole is sealed at subatmospheric pressure.

LED FLOOR TILE SCREEN
Provided is an LED floor tile screen, comprises a rear body, an LED lamp panel fixedly arranged on the rear body, a glass (4) covering the LED lamp panel and an adhesive layer (3) for bonding and sealing glass (4) and rear body; the LED lamp panel comprises a PCB board (21) and a plurality of lamp beads (22) fixedly arranged on PCB board (21); the rear body comprises a bottom housing and a plurality of supports (11) fixedly arranged in the bottom hosing; and the support (11) is used to support glass (4); the LED lamp panel is fixedly arranged in the bottom housing; a top surface of support (11) is higher than that of lamp bead (22). Support (11) supports glass (4) and can transmit the pressure on glass (4) to the rear body, thus preventing glass (4) from crushing lamp bead (22) and protecting lamp bead (22).
ANCHOR FOR A CONCRETE FLOOR
An anchor for connecting a concrete layer of a floor to a cellulosic layer of the floor, the cellulosic layer comprising a plurality of cellulosic members joined together in a side-by-side arrangement, the anchor including a first portion to extend between two adjacent cellulosic members of the cellulosic layer into the concrete layer of the floor. The first portion includes attachment structure to attach the first portion to one of the two adjacent cellulosic members of the cellulosic layer to attach the anchor to the cellulosic layer. An upper edge margin of the first portion is disposed within the concrete layer when the first portion is attached to the cellulosic layer. A second portion extends from the upper edge margin in a first direction that is transverse to the first portion. The second portion is spaced apart from the cellulosic layer and embedded within the concrete layer of the floor to attach the anchor to the concrete layer.
Modular Floating Tile, Coping and Skirting Systems for Decks and Stairs
Coping and skirting systems for structural bases are described herein. The coping and skirting systems include at least one coping tile and a support structure configured to be mounted on a front surface of the structural base and to support the at least one coping tile on the structural base. The support structure is also configured to be mounted on the structural base at a selectable position that provides for a top surface of the coping tile to be level with a top surface of a field tile on the structural base.
BUILDING PANEL COMPRISING MINERAL-BASED LAYER
A panel, such as a floor panel, including a core, an optional upper arrangement and an optional lower arrangement. One or more of the core, the upper arrangement and the lower arrangement includes a mineral-based layer, preferably including magnesium oxide. One or more of the mineral-based layers includes reinforcement fibres embedded in a mineral-based matrix, preferably including magnesium oxide. The fibres are configured to increase the tensile strength of the mineral-based layer.
