Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem of requiring cost, since the original texture of a Tatami is impaired, warping and distortion are easily caused and a heater must be separately purchased, in a thin Tatami, in floor heating construction of a Japanese room. <P>SOLUTION: Efficient and comfortable floor heating can be performed without warping and distortion, without impairing the original texture of the Tatami, by laying a cord-like heating element in a groove, making the groove in a Tatami body. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a tatami mat with a built-in heating function.

  Conventional tatami mats are manufactured by attaching tatami mats (tatami mates) as surface materials to tatami floors (tatami mats) as core materials and laying them in a Japanese-style room. It has a long history and is a widely generalized product.

In recent years, the impact of dust and house dust on the human body due to fires caused by oil stoves and air disturbances in the room by air conditioners has also become a problem. For this reason, floor heating is attracting attention in place of conventional heating equipment, and demand is increasing. However, in the floor heating in the Japanese-style room so far, as a tatami mat for floor heating, it is assumed that the heating element is not built in the tatami mat and is laid on the floor heating heating device provided separately from the tatami mat, Thin products are mainstream. Therefore, due to insufficient strength, warpage and distortion tend to occur not only when using heated floor heating but also when not using floor heating.
In addition, the conventional floor heating construction in a Japanese-style room requires the installation of a heat generating device separately from the tatami mat, and a lot of time and labor are required for the electrical work and carpentry work associated therewith.
Then, this invention makes it a subject to provide easily the floor heating of the comfortable Japanese-style room original with a tatami mat without warping and distortion.

  In order to solve the above problems, a heating element (silicon heater, etc.) is built in the tatami mat with a conventional thickness, and it has sufficient strength against the load by surrounding it with an aluminum member. Use a reinforced insulation board (preglon board, etc.) to prevent warping and distortion of the tatami body due to heat.

  A heating element is built in the tatami mat with the conventional thickness, and the strength is enhanced by aluminum members and reinforced insulation boards (preglon boards, etc.), which prevents the occurrence of warping and distortion, and is efficient. You can have a comfortable Japanese-style room.

An embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG.
A tatami body 1 with a floor heating function mainly includes a tatami mat 2, a reinforced insulation board 3, an aluminum member 4, an insulation board 5, a heating element 6, and a heat insulating material 7.

"Effect of the embodiment"
According to this embodiment, the main body 1 has a sufficient thickness, and the reinforced insulation board 3 can sufficiently resist warping and distortion. It protects against deformation and the heat insulating material 7 has a sufficient thickness so that heat is not inefficiently released to the lower part.
This embodiment is compatible with the traditional tatami structure, form and manufacturing method, and if the surface tatami mat is damaged, the tatami mat can be replaced like a normal tatami mat, so maintenance is easy. It is also possible to reuse only the heating element.

"Other embodiments"
In other embodiments, the heat insulating material, the heat transfer material, and the like may be other materials.

It is a perspective view showing one embodiment of this invention. It is a perspective view which shows a prior art.

Claims (1)

  By making a groove in the tatami floor, which is a tatami mat member of the Japanese-style flooring material, laying a cord-like heating element in the groove and surrounding it with an aluminum member, it is possible to maintain sufficient strength against the load, Heating function built-in tatami mat that has the same thickness as conventional tatami mats to prevent warping and distortion while at the same time transferring heat efficiently with a special building material board.
