Abstract
A module mat system with first layer that is joined to a second layer by fusion welding, hot welding, hand welding, seam welding, heat pressing, or other methods know to those having skill in the art. Each layer has a central core with a first cellular structure formed from ribs extending from the interior surface. The cross section of the ribs in the central core of the first layer matches the cross section of the ribs in the central core of the second layer such that when fusion welded together the ribs of the central core of the first layer weld to the ribs of the central core of the second layer.
Claims13
A module mat system comprising:
- a first layer and a second layer, each layer having an interior surface and an exterior surface,
- the interior surface comprising a central core with a first cellular structure formed from core ribs extending from the interior surface wherein the cells of the first cellular structure have a first rib pattern;
- a first band extending from at least one side of the central core, wherein the first band has a second cellular structure formed from first band ribs extending from the interior surface of the first band, wherein the cells of the second cellular structure have a second rib pattern;
- wherein each core rib that abuts the first band has a corresponding first band rib that aligns with the core rib;
- and
- the second rib pattern is smaller than the first rib pattern such that the cell density of the second rib pattern is more dense than the cell density of the first rib pattern.
