The present disclosure generally relates to devices and methods for furniture protection. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to foam-film sheets configured to protect furniture from damage. An exemplary foam-film sheet as disclosed herein includes a sheet of foam material having a first lateral edge and a second lateral edge; a sheet of film material having a first lateral edge and a second lateral edge; a first seal between a portion of the foam material proximate its first lateral edge and a portion of the film material proximate its first lateral edge; and a second seal between a portion of the foam material proximate its second lateral edge and a portion of the film material proximate its second lateral edge, wherein the film and foam are substantially unsealed along the entire transverse width between the first and second sealed portions near the lateral edges of the foam material.

An impact-absorbing device and a structure for blocking noise between floors by using same are proposed. The impact-absorbing device has a body (100) including an upper cylinder (120), of which the inside is empty and which has an opening opened downward, and a lower container (140), of which the upper end is inserted into the upper cylinder (120), so that the length thereof can extend and contract has an elastic support (160) formed in the transverse direction inside the upper cylinder (120) and/or the lower container (140), and includes a transmitting body (180), which is supported by the elastic support (160) so as to transmit, to the elastic support (160), impact applied to the upper cylinder (120), and thus impact is absorbed since the elastic support (160) is elastically deformed by the transmitting body (180) while the length of the body (100) is reduced due to the impact.

The present invention relates to: a floor tile including a fabric material, and comprising a balancing layer, a noise prevention layer, a functional sheet layer, a fabric material layer, and a surface coating layer; and a manufacturing method thereof and more specifically to a floor tile including a fabric material and a manufacturing method thereof, the floor tile being a functional tile having a natural texture and a three-dimensional effect possessed by the fabric material, having excellent durability, preventing delamination of the fabric material layer, exhibiting excellent mechanical properties such as tensile strength, and enhancing cleaning facilitation.

A method of reducing sound transmission in a building constructed using horizontal cross laminated timber (CLT) panels to provide a floor of the building and a floor assembly are described. In an implementation, the method includes: attaching a plurality of energy transmission control mounts to a ceiling side of one or more of the cross-laminated timber panels using fasteners; attaching a plurality of furring channels to the energy transmission control mounts; and attaching a cross laminated timber sheet to the plurality of furring channels to form an exposed ceiling layer.

A load distributing and absorbing system that lies below a superstructure material which is exposed to percussive forces. The load distributing and absorbing system is interposed between the superstructure material and a foundation. The system has a barrier layer that lies below the superstructure material and an underlayment infrastructure positioned below the barrier layer. Included in the underlayment infrastructure are hat-shaped absorbing members.

The current invention concerns coverings such as a floor covering, wall covering or ceiling covering, said covering comprising at least one substrate and at least one surface layer, said surface layer comprising a print pattern and a wear layer, whereby said print pattern is directly applied to said substrate, and further concerns a method to produce such coverings.

The present invention provides an impact absorbing flooring that reduces an impact caused by falling of a user. The impact absorbing flooring includes a structural layer having a plurality of impact absorbing structures, each of which is a truncated pyramid-shaped structure and has a recess on a side of the truncated pyramid that is substantially not horizontal to a ground surface.

A floor assembly for a performance space is disclosed. The assembly has a planar resilient floor board supported above a base board on a primary support system comprising a plurality of resilient (preferably elastomeric) supports. A secondary support system comprises a plurality of fixed support members and a plurality of movable support members. Each movable support member is movable in a direction parallel to the plane of the floor board between a first position spaced from a corresponding fixed support member such that the floor board is unsupported by the support members and a second position in contact with the corresponding fixed support member such that the floor board is supported by the support members. In the first position, the floor board is in a sprung configuration and in the second position, the floor board is in an unsprung configuration. The invention therefore provides a performance floor which is switchable between sprung and unsprung configurations.
