Standing Desk Mat
20230248170 · 2023-08-10 ·

A standing desk mat comprising a multi-layered mat in which each layer comprises a different material. A cushion layer includes a soybean oil high-density memory foam pad. An example of the material comprising the cushion layer is high-density memory foam carpet cushion, a 10-pound high density frothed soybean oil and polyurethane, visco-elastic “memory foam” material. that is one hundred percent waterproof, recyclable and earth-friendly. A user-facing layer of the mat is attached to a side of the cushion layer and comprises a hand-loomed one hundred percent wool carpet. An optional non-skid layer is attached to another side of the cushion layer and configured to contact the underlying flooring.

System for wheelchair-based near field communication (NFC) payment extension and standard

A payment facilitating and processing system includes a payment terminal. The payment terminal includes a processor and a first receiver. The first receiver is configured to communicate with the processor. The payment facilitating and processing system further includes a second receiver, which is also configured to communicate with the processor. The payment facilitating and processing system still further includes a mobility assistance device including a transmitter. The transmitter is configured to receive payment information from a payment apparatus and transmit the payment information to the second receiver upon positioning of the transmitter in close proximity to the second receiver.

LOW WEIGHT MODULAR CARPET COMPONENTS AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME
20230243094 · 2023-08-03 ·

A low-weight carpet tile and process for making the same, wherein the carpet tile comprises a facecloth having a plurality of face yarns tufted through a primary backing, an extruded polymer secondary backing layer, and a reinforcing scrim layer partially un embedded within the extruded polymer secondary backing layer. The top surface and bottom surface of the carpet tile are defined by the facecloth and the reinforcing scrim layer, respectively. A polymer-based resin is extruded onto the facecloth to form an at least substantially uniform secondary backing layer, and the reinforcing scrim layer is laid onto the extruded polymer secondary backing layer while the extruded polymer secondary backing layer remains above a softening temperature for the resin. The entire multi-layer web is then passed through a nip to embed the reinforcing scrim layer into the extruded polymer secondary layer, and the entire web is chilled.

MULTI-PIECE RUG AND MAT ARRANGEMENT AND ASSEMBLY FOR FORMING A FLOOR COVERING
20220117426 · 2022-04-21 ·

A multi-piece floor arrangement and assembly forms a floor covering that includes a top, or upper, rug portion and bottom, or lower, mat portion, and pocketed corner areas in each corner of an underside surface of the rug portion into which corresponding corners of the mat portion are insertable. The pocketed corner areas secure the rug portion with the mat portion when both are placed on an underlying surface while enabling a flow of air between the rug portion and the mat portion. The mat portion includes multiple interlocking sections that help to maintain the floor covering in a uniform planar shape and provide an aesthetically-pleasing appearance when placed on an underlying surface. The multi-piece arrangement and assembly does not move relative to that surface, yet does not require either a cumbersome installation or removal process.

FLOOR MAT WITH IMPROVED RIGIDITY AND NON-SLIP BACKING
20220117427 · 2022-04-21 · ·

A floor mat with improved rigidity and non-slip surfaces is disclosed. The floor mat includes a bottom surface with an interior cavity that has within it a plurality of interior walls that intersect with one another, thereby increasing rigidity of the floor mat. The floor mat also includes a plurality of nubs at the intersections of the interior walls that increase friction with the flooring of an automobile, thereby improving the non-slip characteristics of the floor mat.
