Abstract:
A floor polishing or grinding pad assembly is provided. In one aspect, a polishing or grinding pad assembly employs a fibrous pad, a reinforcement layer or ring, and multiple floor-contacting disks. In another aspect, the reinforcement layer includes a central hole through which the fibrous pad is accessible and the fibrous pad at the hole has a linear dimension (x) greater than a linear dimension (y) of one side of the adjacent reinforcement layer. In yet another aspect, at least one of the floor-contacting disks has an angle (α) offset from that of a base surface of the disk, the fibrous pad and/or the reinforcement layer. A further aspect employs a smaller set of disks alternating between and/or offset from a larger set of the disks. In another aspect, the reinforcement layer includes a wavy or undulating internal edge shape.

Claim (Index 24):
The pad assembly of  claim 20 , wherein the internal edge of the reinforcement layer has an arcuately wavy shape including peaks and valleys, the reinforcement layer being linearly larger at the peaks than at the valleys, and one of the disks is located within each of the peaks.
