Abstract

Provided is a flooring material system capable of exerting a high impact absorption capability at the time of falling while at the time of walking, a stability is high and it is easy to walk. The present invention provides a flooring material system for absorbing impact, the flooring material system being characterized by including foundation materials arranged to be used, each of the foundation materials including a top portion layer and a lower portion layer each having a surface substantially parallel to a ground, and a plurality of leg portions with an impact buffer capability, and a distribution material arranged to distribute force applied to the foundation material.

Claims (9)

1. A flooring material system configured to absorb impact, wherein the flooring material system comprising:

a plurality of foundation materials, wherein each of the plurality of foundation materials comprises a top portion layer and a lower portion layer, wherein a surface of the top portion layer and a surface of the lower portion layer are substantially parallel to a ground;

a plurality of leg portions with an impact buffer capability, wherein each of the plurality of leg portions buckles when a certain force or greater is applied thereto in a vertical direction; and

a distribution material configured to distribute force applied to the plurality of foundation materials, wherein the distribution material comprises:

a first distribution material, wherein the first distribution material is arranged across two adjacent foundation materials of the plurality of foundation materials, and

a second distribution material, wherein the second distribution material is arranged across four adjacent foundation materials of the plurality of foundation materials, wherein the four adjacent foundation materials are substantially on the same plane and are all in contact at one point, wherein the plurality of leg portions comprises four adjacent leg portions each associated with one of the four adjacent foundation materials, and wherein the second distribution material partially overlaps with each of the four adjacent leg portions.

2. The flooring material system according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of leg portions are arranged at four corners of each of the plurality of foundation materials.

3. The flooring material system according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of leg portions includes a groove on one side.

4. The flooring material system according to claim 2 , wherein each of the plurality of leg portions includes a groove on one side.
