DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a rug to be laid on a floor surface, a seat surface, a bed surface or the like of a bathroom entrance, a sauna bath, or the like, in contact with bare skin.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A rug for wiping the moisture of wet skin such as legs and feet is laid at a bathroom entrance or a sauna bath. Such wiping rugs include natural fibers and rayon,
A pile fabric such as a towel fabric or a tufted pile fabric in which a pile layer is formed by a water-absorbing fiber such as a water-absorbing acrylic fiber is used.

[0003]

Certainly, the water absorption capacity of the rug increases in proportion to the pile weight, and a rug with a thick pile layer is easy to wipe off moisture. However, at the same time, a rug with a large pile basis weight is difficult to dry because moisture penetrates deeply into the pile layer. For this reason, there is no particular inconvenience when a limited number of people use the equipment, as in a general household. However, with a commercial rug laid in a public bath etc. used by an unspecified number of people, wipe it off. The moisture contained in the pile layer gradually increases with the number of passengers used and becomes wet enough to cause discomfort, so that it must be replaced many times a day. However, thick pile rugs are themselves heavy and become heavier and harder to carry when wet. In addition, since it takes a long time to dry a rug with a thick pile layer, it is necessary to prepare many rugs and use them instead of washing each time you replace Washing equipment and drying equipment, and a large workplace to install them are required. For this reason,
Actually, professional rugs used in public baths or the like must be relocated to specialized companies.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, the present invention has a long pot life, is easy to be replaced, is easy to carry, is easy to wash, does not require a long time to dry, can be easily washed and dried, especially in public baths and the like. The present invention aims to provide a rug suitable for business rugs in Japan.

[0005]

A rug 17 according to the present invention.
In the example, the flocked portion 12 where the fiber fragments 11 are electrostatically planted and the non-flocked portion 13 where the fiber fragments 11 are not electrostatically planted are scattered on the surface, and the flocked portion 12 protrudes higher than the non-flocked portion 13. A convex portion is formed, the non-flocked portion 13 forms a concave portion, and the non-flocked portion 13 is permeable to the front and back surfaces of a lining 14, the back surface of which is constituted by fibers 15,
The surface material 16 which is permeable to water is turned on the front and back so as to be peelable, and the height (H) of the convex portion 12 is 3 mm or more, and the length of the fiber fragments 11 is 0.5 to 2 mm. debris 11 is inclined unspecified direction.

[0006]

[Relation to the Prior Art] The fiber fragments 11 constituting the flocked portion 12 on the surface of the lining 14 are a kind of pile, and the lining 14 can be regarded as a kind of cut pile carpet. Then, a pile fabric can be used for the outer material 16.
Therefore, when a pile fabric is used for the outer material 16,
The rug 17 according to the present invention is a cut pile carpet laid on the floor at a glance, a so-called primary carpet,
This gives the appearance of a mat that is laid and used in a decorative manner, a so-called secondary carpet, as if they were laid. In this regard, the present invention provides means for solving the inconvenience that occurs when the secondary carpet is used by laying it on the primary carpet, that is, various known proposals for preventing the secondary carpet from shifting. There are aspects that are easily confused with techniques (hereinafter simply referred to as known techniques), for example, those disclosed in the following patent application publications and utility model registration application publications shown in [Table 1]. Therefore, differences between the present invention and the known techniques shown in [Table 1] will be described below.

[0007]

[Table 1]

[0008] A known technique is to provide a cushioning property, that is, a pile layer, in which a cut pile having a length of generally 5 to 20 mm and a fineness of 10 denier or less and generally having a denier of 1 to 5 deniers and being generally perpendicular to the base cloth is obtained. A small-sized secondary carpet laid on the primary carpet with excellent compressive elastic recovery force receives pressure from the foot each time it is stepped on, and each time, the cut pile of the primary carpet under it is inclined. Fall down. The secondary carpet moves along with the tip of the cut pile in the direction in which the cut pile moves in the direction in which the tip of the cut pile inclines and moves in the direction in which the cut pile of the primary carpet inclines. . Then, when the foot is separated from the secondary carpet and the cut pile of the primary carpet that has been pressed under the secondary carpet is released from the pressing, the cut pile is restored by the elastic recovery force of the cut pile. Will return to the upright state. In the process of returning, when the pressure from the foot is removed, the secondary carpet is in a state of only lightly contacting the cut pile of the primary carpet by its own weight, that is, the secondary carpet is floating on the cut pile of the primary carpet. In other words, it is not in a state of being strongly engaged with the cut pile of the primary carpet as in the case of bonding. For this reason, the secondary carpet, together with the tip of the cut pile, returns from the inclined state to the upright state in the direction in which the cut pile moves and returns by an amount corresponding to the tip of the cut pile moving and returning. Will not move following the tip of the cut pile, but will remain with the tip of the cut pile of the primary carpet that falls down under pressure from the feet. The secondary carpet laid on the primary carpet in this way shifts by the amount that the cut pile of the primary carpet collapses and its tip moves each time it is stepped on, and it gradually shifts by the repetition. Become.

[0009]

[Singularities of the present invention as compared to known techniques]
This is a means for preventing the secondary carpet from shifting. An essential requirement of the known technique shown in [Table 1] is to provide a projection, an adhesive substance, or the like which is in close contact with and engages with the tip of the pile on the surface of the primary carpet on the back surface of the secondary carpet. Therefore, the difference of the present invention compared to the known technology is as follows. (1) On the back surface of the outer material 16, there are no protrusions or sticky substances as seen on the back surface of the secondary carpet of the known technology.
Like the raw material of a secondary carpet that is not lined with a backing material, the back surface of the outer material 16 is constituted by the fibers 15, and the constituent fibers 15 are exposed on the back surface of the outer material 16 in a fabric state. (2) The entire surface of the lining 14 is not formed by the cut pile unlike the surface of the primary carpet of the known art, and the fiber fragments 11 which are a kind of the cut pile are partially electrostatically implanted.

The outer material 16 can be used as long as it can be used with its surface in contact with bare skin, and the back surface is composed of the fibers 15, such as towel fabric, pile fabric (moquette), tufted pile fabric. When the rug 17 is used as a bed sheet, a general woven fabric, knitted fabric, felt or other non-woven fabric can be used as the outer material 16 in addition to the pile knitted fabric and the like.
Further, even a carpet in which the pile 19 is adhered to the cloth 20 with a backing agent can be applied to the outer material 16 by bonding a felt or other cloth to the back surface. The outer periphery 16 may be bordered by a border 33 (FIG. 2).

The lining 17 is a raised portion 12 formed by partially coating a resin 18 on a fabric 36 such as a woven fabric, a knitted fabric, or a non-woven fabric.
A flexible resin-processed cloth composed of the resin 13 and the portion 13 that is not coated with the resin 18 and remains as a water-permeable cloth may be used. However, the lining 17 is not limited to a flexible material such as a woven fabric, a knitted fabric, or a non-woven fabric, and is a net-shaped structure having a void that penetrates the concave portion 13 surrounded by the convex portion 12 by wood or metal toward the front and back, for example, , Sunoko, or
A plastic foam sheet or the like having punched holes can also be used for the backing 17. A binder 21 is applied to the surface of the projection 12 and the fiber fragments 11 are electrostatically implanted to form a flocking portion. If the resin film is left on the back surface 37 of the lining 14 without electrostatic flocking (FIG. 1), the viscosity of the resin film makes the back surface 37 adhere to the floor surface, and the lining 14 becomes difficult to slip, which is convenient. is there.

As described above, the permeable portion 13 is provided on the lining 14.
The reason for forming is that the moisture transferred from the outer material 16 is
4 to allow transmission to the back side. In this case, the permeated moisture does not return to the outer material 16 again and the rug 17 does not give a sticky feeling. For that purpose, the distance (thickness H) from the upper end (top) of the convex portion 12 to the back surface of the concave portion 13 is 3 mm or more, preferably 5 m.
m or more.

The first reason that the fiber fragments 11 are electrostatically implanted on the surface of the convex portion 12 is that the back surface of the outer material 16 is constituted by the exposed fiber 15 as it is, so that the fiber implanted on the lining 14 can be used. This is because the front end of the fragment 11 is easily stabbed and entangled between the fibers on the back surface of the outer material 16, and as a result, the outer material 16 and the lining 14 are integrated. in this way,
In order to easily pierce the back surface of the outer material 16, the fiber fragments 11 need to be rigid. For this purpose, the single fiber fineness of the fiber fragments 11 is 5 to 100 denier, preferably 10 to 80 denier, more preferably 15 to 50 denier, and more preferably 15 to 50 denier, which is thicker than the pile fiber of a general carpet.
5 denier around (25 ± 5 denier), fiber fragment 1
1 is also shorter than the pile length of ordinary carpet.
The thickness is 5 to 5 mm, preferably 0.5 to 2 mm, and more preferably about 2 mm.

The second reason why the fiber fragments 11 are electrostatically implanted on the surface of the convex portion 12 is that the fiber fragments 11 to be electrostatically implanted are inclined in an unspecified (random) direction, and are used in Wilton looms or tufted looms. It is not planted perpendicularly (at right angles) to the base fabric like pile fibers formed by a device for manufacturing a general carpet such as a loom. Therefore, if the fiber fragments 11
Even if the length is 7 mm or more, similarly to the pile fiber of a general carpet, when the flocking portion 12 is trampled, the fiber fragments 11 individually fall in random directions, that is, in all directions, and the pile of the primary carpet is piled up. Since the fibers do not fall down in a certain direction like the fibers, the outer material 16 is covered with the lining 1 as in the case of laying on the primary carpet.
This is because a shift such as a shift on 4 does not occur.

The third reason for electrostatically implanting the fiber fragments 11 on the surface of the convex portion 12 is that the fiber fragment 11 is easily pierced into the surface material 16 because the portion in contact with the back surface of the outer material 16 is the raised convex portion 12. Since the debris 11 is not implanted on the entire surface of the lining 14 and the flocked portion 12 is divided into the non-implanted portion 13, the fiber debris 11 may temporarily fall down in a certain direction like the pile fiber of the primary carpet. This is because it is difficult for the outer material 16 to be displaced on the lining 14 even if there is anything.

In order to make it easier for the fiber fragments 11 to pierce the back surface of the outer material 16, the basis weight of the fiber fragments 11 to be subjected to electrostatic flocking should be small (coarse). For example, a fiber having a length of 2 mm and a single yarn fineness of 20 denier is used. When the fragments 11 are used, the basis weight of the fiber fragments 11 to be subjected to electrostatic flocking is 150 to 3
It is good to be 50 g / m ² , preferably around 250 g / m ² . The periphery of the lining 14 may be bordered by a frame 34, and the outer material 16 may be fitted into a recess 35 surrounded by the frame 34 (FIG. 2).

The rug according to claim 1 of the present application.
