An insert mat for motor vehicles for placing onto a sound-absorbing wall-to-wall carpet structure of the motor vehicle, having an at least three-layer structure, in which the structure has a decorative layer, which is oriented toward the interior of the vehicle in the proper position of the insert mat and is attached to a top surface of a support layer, which surface is oriented toward the interior of the vehicle in the proper position, and a gripping layer, which in the proper position of the insert mat, is attached to a bottom surface of the support layer and is embodied to achieve a hooking interaction with a wall-to-wall carpet of a vehicle, in which the entire structure is embodied to be air permeable, wherein the decorative layer is a tuft, the support layer is a nonwoven, and the gripping layer is a tuft.

Embodiments of fiber surface finish enhanced flocked surface impact force absorbing structure include a plurality of flock fibers disposed on a substrate, a surface coating applied to the plurality of flock fibers, and in another embodiment, a divider fabric bonded to the tops of flock fibers.

A carpet tile having a contrast pattern intermixed with a portion of a background pattern. The contrast pattern is positioned proximate a selected side edge of the carpet tile and has a contrast color different than the colors of the background pattern. Within a floor covering, the rotational position of the carpet tile can be varied to thereby achieve a desired visual appearance with respect to the contrast patterns of adjacent carpet tiles.

An article comprising a polyurethane composition and an array of fibers wherein said array of fibers are embedded in said polyurethane composition such that a portion of said fibers extends beyond an internal surface of said molded article and an external surface of said molded article.

The invention covers both the sole structure and its related production equipment and technology, especially in relation to a type of flocked shoe sole. Compared with the existing technology, the shoe sole can trap and retain fiber particles via electrostatic or electrostatic spraying, which is not only anti-slippery also with elegant looking and reduce the cost. This set of equipment for making flocked sole is highly automatic, easy to operate, save the labor and reduce the production cost. The production procedure consists of 1) applying prime coating; 2) applying adhesive; 3) natural flock retention or electrostatic flocking; 4) electrostatic separation, cleaning, pairing and packaging. The whole process has been shortened dramatically, simplify the procedure, and reduce the cost. Also the solvent and adhesive used are both environmental friendly, harmless, which helps increase the productivity and yield.

A grooved resin molded part which when joined to another molded part, can form a composite molded product having an enhanced strength. This part contains an inorganic filler and has multiple grooves formed by partially removing the resin, such that the filler is exposed in these grooves. The depth of the grooves may be at least one-half of the length of the grooves in the shorter direction. The filler may have a fibrous shape; and the longer direction of the filler may be different from that of the grooves. The part is obtained by subjecting a resin molded part containing the filler to laser irradiation or the like to form multiple grooves in which the filler is exposed.

A self bonding floor tile includes a main body and a self bonding layer connected with the main body. The self bonding layer includes an absorptive element, a first adhesive and a second adhesive. The first adhesive connects the main body with the self bonding layer. The absorptive element includes a plurality of fibers which are implanted into the first adhesive by flocking process with at least a portion of the absorptive element extending into the first adhesive, and at least a portion of the second adhesive penetrates into the other portion of the absorptive element for connecting the self bonding layer with a support body going to be decorated. The present self bonding floor tile can be quickly installed, easily and partly replaced with low installation and replacement cost.
