Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 165 words
A method for preparing polyurethane carpet underlay which method comprises: (A) a frothed, polyurethane-forming mixture applied onto a film material; (B) passing the film containing the frothed, polyurethane-forming mixture through a gauging device so as to provide a substantially uniform thickness of frothed polyurethane-forming mixture; (C) contacting the top of the thus gauged, frothed polyurethane-forming mixture with a film material which has been in previous contact with the bottom of said frothed polyurethane-forming mixture and which film that is in contact with the top and bottom of said frothed polyurethane-forming mixture is one continuous piece of film; (D) curing said gauged frothed polyurethane-forming mixture with said continuous piece of film on top and bottom thereof; (E) removing said film from the underside of the cured polyurethane and applying said film in a continuous manner to the top of said gauged, frothed, polyurethane-forming mixture in step (C); and (F) thereafter cutting the thus prepared carpet underlay having a film attached to one surface into desired lengths.
