Acoustically tuned vehicle floor covering and method of manufacturing an acoustically tuned flooring system

摘要

A method of making a vehicle floor covering by a spray forming process wherein areas of different thickness are provided. The thickness of the non-carpeted floor covering is varied to selectively improve durability, vibration absorption and noise reduction. Thickness may be selectively reduced to minimize material costs and weight reduction requirements. The floor covering is installed on the compartment pan of a vehicle over a decoupler.
