20150010728 | FOAM PRODUCT INTEGRAL WITH TRIM COVER ELEMENT - A foam product integral with trim cover element, which is formed by injecting a liquid polyurethane material, with carbon oxide mixed therein, into an inside of the trim cover element, and curing the liquid polyurethane material into a soft foam padding filled in the trim cover element. In this kind of foam product, a material capable of impregnation with the liquid polyurethane material is attached to an inward surface of the trim cover element. This material capable of impregnation with the liquid polyurethane material is impregnated and bonded with the resulting soft foam padding during a foaming process, and is greater in hardness than the soft foam padding, sufficient to withstand shrinkage of the soft foam padding within the trim cover element. An impregnation-preventive film, or the combination of the impregnation-preventive film and a soft polyurethane open-cell foam layer, may be attached to an inward surface of the afore-said material. | 01-08-2015 |
20150093535 | FOAM WALL STRUCTURE - A foam wall structure includes a frame, at least one primary support member, a slab of polyiso board and a foam layer. The frame can include: a first member, a second member spaced apart from the first member, and two side members extending between the first and second members. The frame defining a front frame surface and an opposite rear frame surface. The at least one primary support member can be positioned between the two side members and extend between the first and second member. The primary support member defines a front support surface and an opposite rear support surface. The slab of polyiso board may be attached to the front frame surface. The foam layer can be received within at least a portion of the frame and overlies the front surface of the primary support member. A method of making a foam wall structure and a pre-fabricated wall is also disclosed. | 04-02-2015 |
