Abstract
A patterned warning mat according to the present disclosure having a base and a plurality of domes and patterns formed on the base. The warning mat is obtained by a process comprising the steps of providing an open-face mold having a plurality of textures and a plurality of dome indentations, preparing a liquid mixture capable of solidifying, pouring the mixture over the open-face mold, and allowing the mixture to solidify and form the warning mat. The domes and patterns on the warning mat respectively correspond to the dome indentations and textures of the open-face mold.
Claims20
A method of producing a patterned warning mat configured to be placed on walkways, crosswalks, and other areas of pedestrian traffic for providing direction and warning to visually handicapped persons, the method comprising:
- a) providing an open-face mold having a plurality of textures and a plurality of dome indentations;
- b) preparing a liquid mixture capable of solidifying and chemical reaction;
- c) pouring the mixture over the open face open-face mold;
- and
- d) allowing the mixture to solidify and form the warning mat having:
- i. a base;
- ii. a plurality of dome formed on the base and corresponding to the dome indentations;
- and
- iii. a plurality of patterns formed on the base and corresponding to the textures of the open-face mold.

A patterned warning mat, configured to be placed on walkways, crosswalks, and other areas of pedestrian traffic for providing direction and warning to visually handicapped persons, obtained by a process comprising the steps of:
- a) providing an open-face mold having a plurality of textures and a plurality of dome indentations;
- b) preparing a liquid mixture capable of solidifying, wherein a chemical reaction within the liquid mixture causes a temperature of the liquid mixture to be higher than a room temperature;
- c) pouring the mixture over the open-face mold;
- d) immersing or saturating a mesh layer in the mixture before solidification occurs;
- and
- e) allowing the mixture to solidify and form the warning mat having:
- i. a base;
- ii. a plurality of dome formed on the base and corresponding to the dome indentations;
- and
- iii. a plurality of patterns formed on the base and corresponding to the textures of the mold;
- and
- iv. the mesh layer immersed in the base.
