Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to flooring systems and, more specifically, to a flooring system for interlocking tiles.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Luxury vinyl tiles are increasingly used in high end flooring applications. Such tiles, while made of vinyl, often have a texture and color corresponding to other flooring materials, such as ceramic tiles and wood. They are frequently (but not always) less expensive than the floorings materials they resemble. They also tend to be lighter and easier to install that other flooring materials and often are more resistant to scuffs and stains.
- Luxury vinyl tiles typically have complementary locking surfaces on their edges so that adjacent tiles are locked to each other along their edges. Most installers of luxury vinyl tiles place an underlayment between the subfloor and the tiles. This underlayment improves the acoustics and feel of the tiles by absorbing movement between the tiles and the floor substrate as users walk across the surface of the tiles.
- Typical underlayments tend to be resilient, which allows for dampening of the effects of people walking on the floor. However, the locking surfaces along the edge of a tile tend to be weaker than the rest of the tile. Therefore, when one's heel, or other pressure source, is applied to the locking joint between two tiles, the locking surfaces become weakened due to the resilience of the underlayment. Through enough use, the locking surfaces can become degraded and even break.
- Therefore, there is a need for a flooring system with an underlayment that reduces stress on the locking surfaces of vinyl tiles.
- The disadvantages of the prior art are overcome by the present invention which, in one aspect, is a flooring for covering a floor substrate that includes a hybrid underlayment and a plurality of interfacing synthetic tiles. The hybrid underlayment is coupled to the floor substrate with a first adhesive layer. The hybrid underlayment includes an extruded thermoplastic sheet having a plurality of gas-filled expanded thermoplastic microspheres distributed throughout the thermoplastic sheet. Each of the plurality of interfacing synthetic tiles is coupled to the hybrid underlayment with a second adhesive layer.
- In another aspect, the invention is a floor, which includes a substrate. A hybrid underlayment is coupled to the floor substrate with a first adhesive layer. The hybrid underlayment includes an extruded sheet that includes thermoplastic and a plurality of gas-filled expanded thermoplastic microspheres having a pre-expansion particle size within a range of 28 μm to 38 μm and distributed throughout the thermoplastic. A plurality of luxury vinyl tiles, each of which is coupled to the hybrid underlayment by a second adhesive layer.
- In yet another aspect, the invention is a method of installing a floor on a floor substrate, in which a first adhesive layer is applied to the floor substrate. A hybrid underlayment is placed on the first adhesive layer. The hybrid underlayment includes an extruded thermoplastic sheet having a plurality of gas-filled expanded thermoplastic microspheres distributed therein. A second adhesive layer is applied to the hybrid underlayment. A plurality of interfacing synthetic tiles is placed on the second adhesive layer.
- These and other aspects of the invention will become apparent from the following description of the preferred embodiments taken in conjunction with the following drawings. As would be obvious to one skilled in the art, many variations and modifications of the invention may be effected without departing from the spirit and scope of the novel concepts of the disclosure.
-
FIG. 1 is a schematic drawing of one embodiment of a flooring system. -
FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing one embodiment of a method of installing a floor. - A preferred embodiment of the invention is now described in detail. Referring to the drawings, like numbers indicate like parts throughout the views. Unless otherwise specifically indicated in the disclosure that follows, the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale. As used in the description herein and throughout the claims, the following terms take the meanings explicitly associated herein, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise: the meaning of “a,” “an,” and “the” includes plural reference, the meaning of “in” includes “in” and “on.”
- As shown in
FIG. 1 , one embodiment of aflooring system 100 includes aflooring substrate 110, which can be a plywood subfloor. A firstadhesive layer 112 is disposed on thesubstrate 110 and ahybrid underlayment 114 is disposed on the firstadhesive layer 112 so that thehybrid underlayment 114 is coupled to thesubstrate 110. A secondadhesive layer 116 is disposed on thehybrid underlayment 114 and a plurality of interlocking synthetic tiles 118 (such as luxury vinyl tiles) is secured to thehybrid underlayment 114 with the secondadhesive layer 116. Typically, thetiles 118 interface each other along ajoint 120, which could be as simple as a butt-joint. In one embodiment, thetiles 118 have complimentary-shaped locking edges joint 120. - The
hybrid underlayment 114 includes a thermoplastic sheet in which a plurality of gas-filled expanded thermoplastic microspheres distributed throughout the thermoplastic sheet. In one embodiment, the he thermoplastic is polyethylene (which could be either HDPE or LDPE, depending on the specific application). In other embodiments, the thermoplastic can include such plastics as: polypropylene, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, ethylene-vinyl acetate, polystyrene, poly vinyl chloride, thermoplastic polyolefin, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl fluoride and combinations thereof. - In one embodiment, the microspheres have a pre-expansion particle size within a range of 28 μm to 38 82 m and expand when heated to a temperature of about 200° C. In one embodiment, the microspheres include Expancel® 930-MB-120 microspheres available from AkzoNobel. In one method of making the underlayment, microsphere pellets are combined with thermoplastic and the combination is heated to about 200° C., during which time the microspheres expand. The combination is then extruded in sheet form.
- It has been found that the
hybrid underlayment 114 provides good support to thejoints 120 betweenadjacent tiles 118, thereby reducing stress at thelocking surfaces locking surfaces tiles 118. - As shown in
FIG. 2 , in onemethod 200 of installing a floor on a floor substrate, a first adhesive layer is applied to thefloor substrate 202. A hybrid underlayment is placed on the firstadhesive layer 204. The hybrid underlayment includes an extruded thermoplastic sheet having a plurality of gas-filled expanded thermoplastic microspheres distributed therein. A second adhesive layer is applied to the hybrid underlayment 206. A plurality of interlocking synthetic tiles is placed on the secondadhesive layer 208. - The above described embodiments, while including the preferred embodiment and the best mode of the invention known to the inventor at the time of filing, are given as illustrative examples only. It will be readily appreciated that many deviations may be made from the specific embodiments disclosed in this specification without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
