Definitions
- the invention relates to a tablecloth pad with the features mentioned in the preamble of claim 1.
- the present invention is not only to secure the tablecloth pad against slipping on the table surface, but moreover to secure the tablecloth against slipping particularly well and to hold it smoothly even during prolonged use.
- the tablecloth should neither form waves nor wander on the surface.
- the adhesive effect should be so great that a blanket lying on the mat and weighted down with some objects, eg crockery, cannot be pulled off the table by a small child.
- the tablecloth underlay thus also acts as accident protection. After all, the underlay itself should be used as a tablecloth, so it should have an attractive appearance and still look good even if it is only partially covered, for example by sets or a Tablecloth that is smaller than the table surface.
- the adhesive effect of the tangled flock can be increased significantly. If you cut fibers with a blunt knife, cross protrusions result. This is normally avoided, but is deliberately created here.
- the upper layer 2 carries an adhesive layer 4 at the top, into which the flock fibers are shot under different orientations, so that a tangled flock 6 results.
- angles that the individual flock fibers enclose with the adhesive layer 4 are at least 30 °.
- the layer 1 is made non-slip by foaming and by a soft setting of the plastic material with the help of plasticizers. This effect can be increased by profiling 7 of layer 1.
- the flock fibers have a length of about 2 mm and a fineness of 3-4 dtex.
- the flock fibers can have a round (Fig. 3), a trilobal (Fig. 4) or other cross-section.
- transverse projections 6 in FIGS. 2 to 4 at the fiber ends.
- the transverse projections considerably increase the adhesive effect of the tangled flock on a tablecloth.
- the basic product is foamed.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Tischdeckenunterlage mit den im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 genannten Merkmalen.The invention relates to a tablecloth pad with the features mentioned in the preamble of
Durch die DE-OS 21 30 117 ist eine Tischdeckenunterlage mit den im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 genannten Merkmalen bekanntgeworden, die eine rutschhemmende Wirkung hat und wasserdicht ist.From DE-OS 21 30 117 a tablecloth mat with the features mentioned in the preamble of
Durch die vorliegende Erfindung soll die Tischdeckenunterlage nicht nur an der Tischfläche gegen Verrutschen gesichert sein, sondern soll darüberhinaus die Tischdecke an der Unterlagen gegen Verrutschen besonders gut sichern und auch bei längerem Gebrauch glatt anliegend halten. Die Tischdecke soll weder Wellen bilden, noch auf der Unterlage wandern. Die Haftwirkung soll so groß sein, daß eine auf der Unterlage liegende und mit einigen Gegenständen, z.B. Geschirrteilen beschwerte Decke von einem Kleinkind nicht vom Tisch gezogen werden kann. Die Tischdeckenunterlage wirkt somit auch als Unfallschutz. Schließlich soll die Unterlage selbst als Tischdecke zu verwenden sein, also ein ansprechendes Aussehen haben und auch dann noch gut aussehen, wenn sie nur teilweise abgedeckt wird, z.B. durch Sets oder eine Tischdecke, die kleiner ist als die Tischfläche.The present invention is not only to secure the tablecloth pad against slipping on the table surface, but moreover to secure the tablecloth against slipping particularly well and to hold it smoothly even during prolonged use. The tablecloth should neither form waves nor wander on the surface. The adhesive effect should be so great that a blanket lying on the mat and weighted down with some objects, eg crockery, cannot be pulled off the table by a small child. The tablecloth underlay thus also acts as accident protection. After all, the underlay itself should be used as a tablecloth, so it should have an attractive appearance and still look good even if it is only partially covered, for example by sets or a Tablecloth that is smaller than the table surface.
All dies zugleich wird durch die Erfindung nach Anspruch 1 erreicht.All of this is achieved by the invention according to
Während man beim elektrostatischen Beflocken von Kunststoffgrundwaren mit einigem Aufwand dafür sorgt, daß die Flockfasern parallel zueinander und senkrecht stehend eingeschossen werden, wird hier das genaue Gegenteil gemacht, nämlich die elektrostatische Einschußvorrichtung so eingestellt, daß die Fasern auf der Grundware unter verschiedenen Neigungen verankert werden, und zwar ohne eine Vorzugsrichtung. Es ergibt sich damit eine wirre Anordnung der Flockfasern, der Wirrflock.While with electrostatic flocking of plastic base goods it is ensured with some effort that the flock fibers are shot parallel to one another and standing vertically, the exact opposite is done here, namely the electrostatic insertion device is set so that the fibers are anchored on the base goods at different inclinations. without a preferred direction. This results in a tangled arrangement of the flock fibers, the tangled flock.
Besonders gute Ergebnisse werden nach Anspruch 2 dann erzielt, wenn die Flockfasern mit der Grundfaser Winkel von mindestens 300 einschließen, da dann praktisch alle Fasern an der Verankerung beteiligt sind, während flacheieingeschossene Fasern hierzu kaum noch in der Lage wären.Particularly good results are achieved according to
Nach Anspruch 3 läßt sich die Haftwirkung des Wirrflocks bedeutend erhöhen. Schneidet man Fasern mit einem stumpfen Messer, so ergeben sich Quervorsprünge. Dies wird normalerweise vermieden, hier aber bewußt hervorgerufen.According to
Im folgenden wird die Erfindung mit weiteren Merkmalen anhand der beigefügten Zeichnungen erläutert.In the following the invention is explained with further features with reference to the accompanying drawings.
- Figur 1 zeigt im Querschnitt ein Stück einer Tischdeckenunterlage nach der Erfindung, wobei die Dicke in etwa sechsfacher Vergrößerung dargestellt ist.Figure 1 shows in cross section a piece of a tablecloth underlay according to the invention, the thickness being shown in approximately six times the magnification.
- Figur 2 zeigt in Seitenansicht und in sehr starker Vergrößerung das eine Ende einer Flockfaser.Figure 2 shows a side view and in a very large magnification one end of a flock fiber.
- Figur 3 ist in ebenfalls sehr starker Vergrößerung eine Draufsicht auf das eine Ende dieser Flockfaser.Figure 3 is also a very large enlargement of a top view of one end of this flock fiber.
- Figur 4 zeigt eine entsprechende Draufsicht auf das eine Ende einer trilobalen Flockfaser.FIG. 4 shows a corresponding top view of one end of a trilobal flock fiber.
Die Tischdeckenunterlage nach Figur 1 hat eine untere Lage 1 aus geschäumtem, vorzugsweise geschlossenporigem Kunststoff, insbesondere PVC, und eine obere Lage 2 aus dem gleichen Material. Dazwischen befindet sich eine Armierung 3 aus textilem Material. Die obere Lage 2 trägt oben eine Klebstoffschicht 4, in die die Flockfasern unter verschiedenen Orientierungen eingeschossen sind, so daß sich ein Wirrflock 6 ergibt.1 has a
Die Winkel, die die einzelnen Flockfasern mit der Klebstoffschicht 4 einschließen, betragen mindestens 30°.The angles that the individual flock fibers enclose with the
Die Lage 1 wird durch Aufschäumung und durch eine weiche Einstellung des Kunststoffmaterials mit Hilfe von Weichmachern rutschhemmend gemacht. Diese Wirkung kann noch durch eine Profilierung 7 der Lage 1 erhöht werden.The
Die Flockfasern haben eine Länge von etwa 2 mm und eine Feinheit von 3 - 4 dtex. Die Flockfasern können einen runden (Fig.3), einen trilobalen (Fig.4) oder einen andersartigen Querschnitt haben.The flock fibers have a length of about 2 mm and a fineness of 3-4 dtex. The flock fibers can have a round (Fig. 3), a trilobal (Fig. 4) or other cross-section.
Wesentlich ist, daB sie mit einem stumpfen Messer geschnitten werden, so daß sie beim Schneiden gequetscht werden. Dann ergeben sich an den Faserenden Quervorsprünge 6 in Figur 2 bis 4. Die Quervorsprünge steigern ganz erheblich die Haftwirkung des Wirrflocks an einer Tischdecke.It is essential that they are cut with a blunt knife so that they are crushed when cutting. Then there are
Beim elektrostatischen EinschieBen wird die noch ungeschäumte Grundware, d.h. die Lagen 1 und 2 mit Armierung 3 mit einer Klebstoffschicht 4 versehen, und dann werden die Flockfasern eingeschossen. Hierbei haben sich folgende Maßnahmen bzw. Werte als geeignet erwiesen:
- - Es wird schon bei Beginn des Beflockungsvorganges eine große Menge Fasern zugeführt.
- - Der Abstand von einer Dosiervorrichtung und der
Klebstoffschicht 4, d.h. die Flugstrecke der Flockfasern, wird relativ klein gemacht und beträgt z.B. 12 cm. - - Es wird eine hohe Spannung von z.B. 80 kV gewählt.
- - Es wird besonders stark gerüttelt.
- - A large amount of fibers is added at the beginning of the flocking process.
- - The distance from a metering device and the
adhesive layer 4, ie the flight path of the flock fibers, is made relatively small and is, for example, 12 cm. - - A high voltage of, for example, 80 kV is selected.
- - It is shaken particularly strongly.
Im Anschluß an das elektrostatische EinschieBen wird die Grundware geschäumt.After the electrostatic insertion, the basic product is foamed.
