Description

  The present invention relates to a moisture-absorbing deodorizing mat that is used mainly in a pet's living area or under a bed and used for medical purposes, and particularly relates to a mat having excellent deodorizing characteristics and moisture-absorbing / water-absorbing characteristics.

A partition panel for pets that uses charcoal to deodorize has been developed (see Patent Document 1). A sectional view of a pet partition panel described in this publication is shown in FIG. This partition panel has a flash panel structure in which a surface plate 95 having louvers and holes is arranged on the surface of a charcoal panel 90 in which charcoal 93 is filled in a paper core 92 and nonwoven fabric 91 is pasted on both sides. It is said. In this partition panel, a paper core 92 is filled with a powdered coal 93 having a mesh size of 7 mm or less.
JP 2004-57097 A

  As the dust coal used in the above panels, charcoal crushed into a predetermined size or granular activated carbon is used. However, charcoal and activated carbon cannot satisfy the moisture absorption and water absorption characteristics that can be satisfactorily satisfied when used for pet mats, in addition to high manufacturing costs. This is because the porosity is small and the specific gravity is large. Charcoal and activated carbon are produced by carbonizing wood or activating it in a red hot state. Charcoal includes Bincho charcoal produced by carbonizing natural wood in a charcoal kiln, and activated carbon is produced by red-hot charcoal and activated with steam. Charcoal and activated carbon produced by this method are used as an adsorbent because they have countless fine voids. For this reason, it can be expected to have a deodorizing effect when used in a pet mat, but when used as a mat in a living area such as a pet hut, a sufficiently satisfactory water absorption characteristic cannot be realized.

  Furthermore, since the partition panel of the above publication is a paper core compartment filled with dust coal, it can be used for a partition panel, but cannot be used for a pet or medical mat. This is because the load resistance of the paper core is limited. If the compartment chamber is made smaller in order to increase the load resistance, it will not be possible to easily fill the coal, and the filling amount will be reduced, resulting in reduced moisture absorption and water absorption characteristics. In addition, since the paper core partitions the compartment chamber with thin paper, there is a drawback that it is not possible to realize a comfortable cushioning property when used for a mat, and there is also a disadvantage that the paper that partitions the compartment chamber does not recover when deformed. . For this reason, when it is used for a mat and a load acts locally and a concave portion is formed on the surface, there is also a drawback that it is not restored to a flat shape.

  Furthermore, the partition panel of the cited document separates and fills each compartment of the paper core with dust. This structure also has a drawback that it is not possible to equalize the mutual water absorption rate of the dust coal loaded in each compartment. For this reason, when used as a mat for pets, if the dust coal filled in some compartments absorbs pet urine, etc., it will disperse and absorb water in the coal dust filled in the adjacent compartment. This is difficult, and the water absorption rate of the powdered coal in the compartment becomes unbalanced. When the water absorption rate becomes unbalanced, the portion that absorbs a large amount of water becomes overhumid, and mold and the like are likely to occur. In addition, the total amount of water absorbed by the coal is reduced, and the effect of comfortably adjusting the living space of the pet with the mat is reduced.

  The present invention has been developed for the purpose of solving the above drawbacks. An important object of the present invention is that in addition to realizing excellent moisture absorption and water absorption characteristics, it is possible to realize a comfortable living environment by using it for a mat, and furthermore, water absorption of the extinguisher filling a plurality of compartment chambers. Moisture absorption for pets or medical use that reduces the rate imbalance and effectively uses all the charcoal filling in the compartment chamber to achieve the optimal environment for pet living and medical use The object is to provide a deodorizing mat.

  Furthermore, another important wood of the present invention is a moisture absorbing deodorizing mat for pets or medical use that can realize excellent deodorizing characteristics and deodorizing characteristics while reducing the raw material cost and manufacturing cost, and mass-producing at low cost. It is to provide.

Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention

  The pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing floor mat of the present invention has a charcoal layer 30 on the back surface of a breathable surface layer 35. The charcoal layer 30 is fixed to the back surface of the surface layer 35 and is filled with a partition material 31 having a predetermined thickness provided with a plurality of partition chambers 32 and a partition chamber 32 provided in the partition material 31. And charcoal 33. The partition material 31 is a fibrous material in which an infinite number of fibers are three-dimensionally assembled and an infinite number of voids are provided between the fibers, or a plastic having an infinite number of voids formed by foaming plastic into a state having open cells. A plurality of compartment chambers 32 are provided at a predetermined pitch so as to open to the surface layer 35 side, which is a breathable base material made of foam. The charcoal 33 is a charcoal 3 made by burning wood chips 2 obtained by crushing wood into chips. The moisture-absorbing and deodorizing mat is filled with the decarburized 3 in the partition chamber 32 of the partition material 31, and the opening of the partition chamber 32 is closed with a breathable surface layer 35.

  The above moisture-absorbing and deodorizing mat is characterized by realizing extremely excellent moisture absorption and water absorption characteristics. This feature is realized by a unique structure in which the charcoal filling the compartment chamber is replaced with charcoal instead of dust coal, and the compartment chamber is made of a specific compartment material. Extinguishing charcoal is not produced by carbonizing or activating wood like charcoal or activated carbon. Charcoal extinction is produced by burning wood chips that are crushed into chips. Charcoal extinction is produced by putting the whole wood chip into a burning state and then stopping the supply of oxygen. In addition to the extremely low cost of raw materials, the charcoal produced by this method can be produced in large quantities in a simple incinerator, so that, for example, a large amount of waste and thinned wood generated by breaking a building can be reused effectively as a raw material. it can. Since charcoal is produced with the whole wood chip burning, the volume of the resulting charcoal is considerably less than the raw material. For example, the charcoal produced by the following method is reduced to about half of the raw wood chips. However, since extremely cheap waste wood can be used for the wood chip, even if the volume of the charcoal is reduced by half, it is effective that the obtained charcoal characteristics are superior to those of charcoal and activated carbon. In addition to halving the volume in the manufacturing process, charcoal extinction is not excellent as a fuel because it generates less heat when used in fuel. However, compared to charcoal and activated carbon, the porosity is extremely high and light, so the moisture absorption and water absorption characteristics are superior to charcoal and activated carbon. For this reason, when it is used for a moisture-absorbing deodorizing mat, it can absorb a large amount of water and can be used for a pet mat or a medical mat to realize an excellent feature that can make the living environment extremely comfortable. Particularly, when used for pets, it can absorb a large amount of animal urine, and when used for medical purposes, it absorbs a large amount of patient urine to realize a comfortable living environment.

  Furthermore, since charcoal extinction is made by burning wood into charcoal, there is a feature that various organic substances and germs contained in waste wood can be completely lost. For this reason, by using waste wood as charcoal extinction, a large amount of waste wood that is not effectively used can be effectively reused to realize a comfortable living environment for pets and users. In other words, the ideal property of making the living environment comfortable is realized by using the waste wood that is difficult to dispose of.

  The above-described extinguishing is produced, for example, in the incinerator 10 shown in FIGS. The incinerator 10 is filled with wood chips 2 obtained by crushing wood into chips. The upper wood chip 2 is ignited with the open / close lid 16 of the air hole 15 opened. The opening / closing lid 16 is pulled in a closing direction by a spring (not shown), but is opened by being stretched by a stretching rod 23 that fixes a wood rod 19 such as a split chopstick to the tip. When the wood rod 19 of the disposable chopsticks disappears, the air hole 15 is pulled by a spring and closed. The fire ignited on the wood chip 2 gradually burns the lower wood chip 2, and when the bottom wood chip 2 starts to burn, the wood rod 19 of the split chopsticks burns and the open / close lid 16 is closed. When the opening / closing lid 16 is closed, the supply of air is stopped. If it cools in this state, it can extinguish. Since the charcoal produced by the above method stops supplying oxygen in a burning state, it is softer and more porous than charcoal or activated carbon, realizing excellent moisture absorption and deodorizing characteristics.

  Furthermore, in addition to the use of extinguishing deodorant mats for pets or medical use, the above-described moisture absorbing deodorizing floor mats provide partitioning materials, innumerable fibers in a three-dimensional manner, and innumerable gaps between the fibers. A breathable base material made of a plastic material having innumerable voids formed by foam-molding a fibrous material or a plastic into a state having open cells. The air-permeable partition material partitions the partition chambers so that they can vent each other. The adjacent compartment chambers venting each other eliminates an imbalance in the water absorption rate of the charcoal filling the adjacent compartment chambers. This makes it possible to make the water absorption amount of each extinguisher uniform, eliminate a specific charcoal from becoming excessively humid, and considerably increase the water absorption amount of the entire charcoal.

  Moreover, since the above-mentioned moisture absorption deodorizing mat for pets or medical uses a fibrous material or a plastic foam for the partition material, the partition material can be elastically deformed. The elastically deformable partition material is used for pets and medical purposes, and is always elastically deformed by the load of the pet and patient to realize a comfortable environment for the pet and patient. The air is forcibly blown into the adjacent compartment chamber by a pump action. The air forcedly blown from the compartment chamber eliminates an imbalance in the water absorption rate of the charcoal filling the adjacent compartment chamber. For this reason, the elastic deformation of the partition material realizes an excellent feature that eliminates an imbalance in the water absorption rate of the partition chamber while realizing a comfortable environment when used as a mat for a pet or patient. In addition, by elastically deforming the partition material, the surface deformed into the concave portion by the load of the pet or patient can be restored to a flat shape and used conveniently.

  Therefore, the above moisture absorbent deodorizing mat for pets or medical use reduces the imbalance in the water absorption rate of the charcoal filling the plural compartment chambers, and is effective for all the extinguishers filling the compartment chambers. The indoor air can be controlled to the optimum environment, and it can be placed on top and elastically deformed like a cushion.

  In the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing floor mat of the present invention, the partition material 31 can have a plate shape thicker than 1 cm and thinner than 5 cm.

  In the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing floor mat of the present invention, the partition material 31 can be a fibrous material formed by three-dimensionally gathering fibers made of either natural fibers or synthetic fibers.

  In the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat for the present invention, the partition material 31 can be a soft plastic foam having open cells.

  In the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat for pet of the present invention, the decarburized surface 3 is coated with a thin film coating layer 7 having air permeability made of an emulsion type adhesive, and the compartment chamber 32 is separated into granules. Can be filled.

  This pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat covers the surface of the extinguisher, which is light and easily damaged, with a thin-film coating layer that has air permeability. Damage can be prevented. Since the charcoal has a high porosity and is extremely flexible as a whole, it has excellent deodorizing characteristics and water absorption characteristics, but it tends to generate a large amount of powdery black powder cracked from the surface in the handling process. If the amount of damaged black powder is large, it is very small, and if the voids of the fibrous material or the foam of the plastic foam are large, it will enter the voids of the partition material and pass through it to the surface. There is a bad effect that easily leaks to the back. Further, when the charcoal is broken and powdered, and filled into the compartment chamber in powder form, the void ratio is reduced, and there is a detrimental effect that the deodorization characteristics and the water absorption characteristics are deteriorated. In this way, the charcoal having unique physical properties can cover the surface of the surface with a breathable thin film coating layer, thereby eliminating the disadvantage of the charcoal that is easily damaged from the coating without deteriorating the deodorizing characteristics and the water absorption characteristics. In addition, the charcoal that has been easily damaged due to the surface being coated with a thin film coating layer can be easily and efficiently retained in the compartments of various sizes while maintaining a high porosity by filling the compartments in this state. Can be filled. In addition, since it is not necessary to mold according to the shape of the compartment chamber, regardless of the compartment chamber shape and size, it can be easily and easily filled into the compartment chamber while maintaining the excellent properties of decarburization. Deodorizing characteristics and water absorption characteristics can be realized.

  Furthermore, the charcoal obtained by burning wood chips obtained by crushing wood into chips of a specific size has fewer protruding corners in the process of extinction. When the compartment chamber is filled with the charcoal in a state of being separated into particles, it is difficult to form a bridge like the charcoal with corners, and the compartment chamber is filled with the charcoal, so that the deodorization characteristics and the water absorption characteristics can be improved.

In the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat for use in the present invention, the thin film coating layer 7 formed by coating the surface of the decarburized 3 can be made of vinyl acetate resin.
This pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat covers the surface of the charcoal with a thin film coating layer made of emulsion type vinyl acetate resin, while eliminating the disadvantages of soft and easy to break the surface, Environmentally friendly and healthy mats can be produced without generating harmful gases such as solvents. In addition, since the vinyl acetate resin of the thin film coating layer is water-soluble, the film thickness can be adjusted to be extremely thin by diluting with water and adhering to the surface of the charcoal. That is, by controlling the diluting ratio with water, the air permeability in the state of adhering to the surface of the charcoal can be optimized.

The hygroscopic deodorizing mat for pets or medical use according to the present invention can solidify the decarburized 3 into a predetermined shape and fill the compartment chamber 32 of the compartment material 31.
Since the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat is formed into a predetermined shape and filled into the compartment chamber, the compartment chamber can be filled in the compartment chamber very easily and efficiently for mass production.

The pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing floor mat of the present invention is capable of solidifying the charcoal 3 with the connecting fibers and the binder 4 and filling the compartment chamber 32.
In the above-described moisture absorbing and deodorizing mat for pets or medical use, the extinguishing charcoal is solidified by the connecting fiber in addition to the binder. For this reason, it can prevent effectively that a deodorizing characteristic and a water absorption characteristic fall by solidifying, while solidifying charcoal.

In the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat for the present invention, the partition chamber 32 of the partition material 31 can be filled with calcium carbonate in addition to the charcoal removal 3.
Since the above moisture absorbing deodorizing mat for pets or medical use adds calcium carbonate to charcoal extinction, it can improve fire resistance and flame resistance. This is because calcium carbonate prevents the burning of charcoal.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. However, the examples shown below exemplify a pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat for embodying the technical idea of the present invention, and the present invention is a pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat. The mat is not specified as follows.

  Further, in this specification, in order to facilitate understanding of the scope of claims, numbers corresponding to the members shown in the examples are indicated in the “claims” and “means for solving problems” sections. It is added to the members. However, the members shown in the claims are not limited to the members in the embodiments.

  2 and 3 are exploded perspective views of the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat for the present invention. The pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat shown in these figures has a charcoal layer 30 on the back surface of a breathable surface layer 35. The charcoal layer 30 includes a partition material 31 provided with a plurality of partition chambers 32, and charcoal 33 formed by filling the partition chambers 32 provided in the partition material 31. The charcoal layer 30 is fixed to the back surface of the surface layer 35 by filling the partition chamber 32 of the partition material 31 with charcoal 33. The charcoal 33 is the extinguisher 3 made by burning wood crushed into chips. The pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing floor mat of FIG. 2 is filled in a partition chamber 32 provided in the partition material 31 in a granular form for separating the charcoal deodorant 3, and the pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing floor mat of FIG. The charcoal extinguishing 3 is formed into a plate shape and filled in the compartment chamber 32. The moisture-absorbing deodorizing floor mat for pet or medical uses the charcoal 33, which is charcoal 33, filled in the compartment chamber 32 of the compartment material 31, and the opening of the compartment chamber 32 is closed with a breathable surface layer 35. .

  2 is manufactured in the process shown in FIG. 4, and the petrol or 3 used for the hygroscopic deodorizing mat for pets shown in FIG. It is manufactured by the process shown in FIG. The manufacturing process of FIG. 4 includes a crushing process in which wood 9 is processed into chips to make wood chips 2, a charcoal removing process in which the crushed wood chips 2 are burned to make charcoal 3, and the burned charcoal 3 is used as a rotating container. , And turning to make a charcoal extinguisher by a smoothing process for smoothing the protrusion of the extinguishing charcoal 3 and a coating process for covering the smoothed smooth charcoal 3 'surface with the thin film coating layer 7.

  The manufacturing process of FIG. 5 includes a crushing process for processing the wood 9 into a chip shape, a charcoal removing process for burning the crushed wood chip 2 to make the charcoal 3, and putting the burned charcoal 3 into a rotating container and rotating it. A smoothing process for smoothing the protruding part of the charcoal 3 and a molding process for putting the smoothed smooth charcoal 3 'into the mold 20 and bonding the contact points of the smooth charcoal 3' with the binder 4 to form a plate. And after the binder 4 hardens | cures, the charcoal-extinguishing 3 solidified by plate shape with the demolding process which demolds from the shaping | molding die 20 is manufactured.

  In the crushing step, wood 9 such as conifers, deciduous trees and bamboo is crushed with a blade and processed into chips. In this step, bark can be added in addition to wood. Further, as the wood 9, waste wood obtained by breaking a building can be used, or wood that has not been effectively used can be effectively used by using thinned wood. In the crushing step, the wood 9 is crushed into wood chips 2 of 5 mm or more and 2 cm or less. If a wood chip is crushed to 5 mm or less, the yield in the process of converting to charcoal will deteriorate. On the other hand, if the wood chip is larger than 2 cm, it becomes difficult to fill the compartment chamber 32 without a gap. Therefore, in the crushing step, the wood 9 is preferably crushed into wood chips 2 of about 1 cm.

  The charcoal removal process does not process wood into hard charcoal like Bincho charcoal. The wood chip 2 is made into the extinguisher 3 in the incinerator 10 shown in FIGS. The incinerator 10 has a metal cylinder 11 that opens at the top and closes the bottom, and the upper opening 12 is closed by a supply lid 13. The metal cylinder 11 is large enough to be filled with 100 to 1000 liters of wood chips 2 and has a height of 1 to 3 m. The incinerator 10 is provided with a chimney 14 at the upper end of the metal cylinder 11 and exhausts from the chimney 14 with the supply lid 13 closed. The supply lid 13 is opened and the wood chip 2 is filled in the metal cylinder 11.

  The incinerator 10 shown in the figure has an air inlet 27 on the side surface of the bottom of the metal tube 11 so that air can be supplied to the inside. A guide tool 17 for supplying air to the inside of the metal cylinder 11 is inserted into the intake port 27. The guide 17 shown in the figure includes an insertion portion 17 </ b> A that is inserted into the metal tube 11 and a tube portion 17 </ b> B that is disposed outside the metal tube 11. The insertion portion 17A is a groove type having an upper surface opened, and has an infinite number of holes of about 5 to 10 mm on both side surfaces and the bottom surface. As shown in FIG. 7, the insertion portion 17 </ b> A is inserted into the metal cylinder 11 from the air inlet 27, and the wood chip 2 filled in the metal cylinder 11 is supplied from above. The cylindrical portion 17B is a cylindrical body having an outer shape larger than that of the insertion portion 17A, and is connected to the rear end of the insertion portion 17A. The cylindrical portion 17 </ b> B has an air hole 15 in the rear end surface, and the air hole 15 can be opened and closed with an opening / closing lid 16. The opening / closing lid 16 is connected to the cylindrical portion 17B by a hinge 18 at the upper edge so that the opening / closing lid 16 is elastically closed by being pulled by a spring (not shown). The opening / closing lid 16 is opened by being stretched by a stretching rod 23 having a wood rod 19 connected to the tip. The strut rod 23 is a metal rod, and a wood rod 19 that burns like a split chopstick is inserted and connected to the tip. In the state where the wood rod 19 is inserted into the insertion portion 17A, the extension rod 23 stretches the distal end surface of the insertion portion 17A and the opening / closing lid 16 at both ends thereof, and the opening / closing lid 16 opens the air hole 15. State. In this state, as shown in FIG. 7, the wood chip 2 is filled and the insertion portion 17 </ b> A of the guide tool 17 is embedded in the bottom of the wood chip 2.

  Further, in the incinerator 10 shown in the figure, a porous plate 24 is disposed at a position slightly away from the bottom of the metal cylinder 11, and an air chamber 25 is provided at the bottom of the metal cylinder 11. The perforated plate 24 is formed by opening countless small holes in a metal plate so that wood chips do not fall. However, the perforated plate may be a wire mesh. The perforated plate 24 is disposed in a horizontal posture on the upper surface of the receiving member 26 disposed at the bottom of the metal cylinder 11, and an air chamber 25 is provided below the perforated plate 24. Further, an insertion portion 17 </ b> A of the guide tool 17 is disposed on the upper surface of the porous plate 24. This structure is characterized in that the air supplied from the air hole 15 can be supplied to the air chamber 25 via the guide 17 and supplied from the air chamber 25 to the whole wood chip 2 filled in the metal cylinder 11. is there.

  The above incinerator 10 is filled with the wood chip 2 and then ignites on the wood chip 2 to close the supply lid 13. Since the wood chip 2 is supplied with air flowing in from the air holes 15 from the air chamber 25, the wood chip 2 is ignited from the top to the bottom and ignited as a whole. When the entire wood chip 2 is ignited, the wood rod 19 inside the insertion portion 17A disappears, the projecting rod 23 cannot stretch the opening / closing lid 16, and the opening / closing lid 16 is closed by a spring. If it will be in this state, air will no longer be supplied to the metal cylinder 11, the fire of the ignited wood chip 2 will extinguish, and it will become charcoal-extinguishing. The incinerators shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 are completely ignited while supplying air to the wood chip 2, and then the supply of air is shut off to extinguish the fire. Therefore, the wood chip 2 becomes the charcoal 3 that is burnt.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the smoothing process smoothes the projecting portion of the extinguishing charcoal 3 by putting the extinguishing charcoal 3 manufactured in the extinguishing process into the rotating container 22 and rotating it. The rotary container 22 shown in the figure is a cylindrical metal cylinder 22A. The rotating container 22 that is the metal cylinder 22A is disposed, for example, in an inclined posture, and is rotated in a state where the charcoal extinguishing 3 is supplied inside. The charcoal 3 supplied to the rotary container 22 is transferred from the supply side to the discharge side while rolling inside the metal cylinder 22A, and the surface is smoothed. Although not shown, the metal cylinder 22A can be made of a porous metal plate. This metal cylinder can be transferred while discharging fine debris and small pieces scraped off from the charcoal through the holes on the surface. The charcoal removal 3 that rolls inside the metal cylinder 22A is in contact with the inner surface of the metal cylinder 22A, or a large number of the charcoal removals 3 are in contact with each other, and the protrusions on the surface are shaved and become smooth. The extinguisher obtained from the wood chip has fewer protruding corners in the process of burning and extinguishing, but the protruding part of the surface generated in the crushing process may remain after the extinction. In addition, charcoal may be in a state where its surface becomes brittle and tends to collapse. In this smoothing step, the protrusions remaining on the surface of the extinguisher 3 and the brittle portion of the surface are removed to make the surface of the extinguisher 3 smooth. Thus, the smooth charcoal 3 'having a smooth surface has a high filling efficiency of the compartment chamber 32, and can improve deodorization characteristics and water absorption characteristics. It is because it does not become a bridge and the gap formed between the charcoal-extinguishing units 3 can be reduced. However, since the corner of the extinguisher 3 is reduced in the process of burning the wood chips 2, this smooth process is not always necessary, and this process can be omitted.

  The surface of the extinguisher 3 filled with the granules separated into the compartment chamber 32 is covered with the thin film coating layer 7 in a coating process while being separated. In the coating step, smooth charcoal 3 'is dipped in an emulsion type adhesive diluted with water, drained with a colander and dried. This coating process uses a vinyl acetate resin for an emulsion type adhesive. The film thickness of the thin film coating layer 7 that coats the surface of the charcoal extinguisher 3 is controlled by the magnification at which the adhesive is diluted with water. Preferably, the emulsion type adhesive is diluted 25 to 30 times, that is, 25 to 30 times by weight of water is added to the adhesive and stirred, and the diluted adhesive solution is treated with a charcoal 3 After being soaked, the thin film coating layer 7 having air permeability can be provided by raising it to a colander, draining it, and drying it. The extinguisher 3 coated in this state is in a separated state. If the thin film coating layer 7 is too thick, the air permeability is deteriorated and the water absorption characteristics are deteriorated. If it is too thin, the action of coating the surface of the charcoal is lowered and the surface of the charcoal extinguishing 3 is easily damaged. Therefore, in the diluted adhesive solution, for example, the adhesive is diluted 10 to 40 times, preferably 25 to 30 times by weight, to provide the thin film coating layer 7 having air permeability. A vinyl acetate resin can be used for the adhesive. However, any other adhesive of emulsion type can be used as the adhesive. Emulsion type adhesives use adhesives such as vinyl acetate resin that lose contact with water in a dry state and lose their adhesive strength, that is, contact with water in a dry state and dissolve in water. The thin film coating layer 7 made of this adhesive can prevent the surface of the extinguisher from being damaged in the process until the compartment chamber 32 is filled with the extinguisher 3. The surface of the extinguisher 3 filled in the compartment chamber 32 is not damaged, and the thin film coating layer 7 does not need to protect the surface of the extinguisher 3 in this state. It is important to improve the water absorption characteristics of the extinguisher 3 filled in the compartment chamber 32 by exposing the surface over a wider area. The emulsion-type adhesive that is dissolved in water is dissolved with water adhering to the surface of the extinguisher 3 to expose the surface of the extinguisher 3 in a wider area, thereby improving the water absorption characteristics of the extinguisher 3. Therefore, the thin-film coating layer 7 uses an emulsion type adhesive that is dissolved in water, so that the compartment chamber 32 is filled without damaging the fire extinguisher 3 while the compartment chamber 32 is filled. Water absorption characteristics can be improved.

  The pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing floor mat shown in FIG. 2 is manufactured by the above-described process, and the partitioning chamber 32 is filled with a granular charcoal 3 having a surface coated with the thin film coating layer 7.

  Furthermore, the moisture absorbing and deodorizing mat for pets or medical use can be filled with calcium carbonate in addition to extinguishing the charcoal in the compartment chamber of the compartment material. In this pet or medical hygroscopic deodorizing mat, calcium carbonate is added to the charcoal, so that the combustion of the charcoal can be prevented by the calcium carbonate and the fire resistance and flameproof properties can be improved.

  The hygroscopic deodorizing mat for pet or medical shown in FIG. 2 solidifies the charcoal 3 into a plate shape in a molding process and fills the compartment chamber 32. The molding process is molded into a plate shape in the molding process after smoothing in the smooth process or without smoothing. The charcoal extinguishing 3 is formed into a plate shape by the forming die 20 of FIG. The mold 20 includes a molding chamber 21 that opens upward and closes the bottom. The inner shape of the molding chamber 21 is a dimension that solidifies the extinguisher 3 into a plate shape. This mold 20 is placed horizontally and filled with the charcoal 3 mixed with the binder 4 on the plate material 5. The binder 4 is preferably an emulsion type adhesive, preferably a vinyl acetate resin. The emulsion type adhesive is bonded to the charcoal 3 in a dry state, but when it comes into contact with water, it is melted in water and loses its adhesive strength. When the binder 4 is filled in the compartment chamber 32, the water extinguishing property of the charcoal 3 can be improved by solidifying the charcoal 3 into a plate shape. This is because the binder 4 is dissolved by water that absorbs water, and the surface of the extinguisher 3 is exposed over a wide area. The binder made of vinyl acetate resin is inexpensive and can be solidified into a plate shape by diluting it with water. The emulsion-type binder 4 is diluted with water, for example, 2 to 10 times, preferably 2 to 5 times, and mixed with the charcoal removal 3. The amount of the diluted binder diluted with water is, for example, about 50 g / liter to 100 g / liter with respect to the volume for forming the charcoal 3 into a plate shape. The vinyl acetate resin is diluted with water, mixed with the charcoal 3 and stirred, and filled into the molding chamber 21. In a state where the binder 4 is uncured, the binder 4 is cured by leveling horizontally so as to be flush with the upper surface of the mold 20. When the binder 4 is cured, the mold is removed from the mold 20 in the demolding step, and the extinguisher 3 solidified into a plate shape shown in FIG. 10 is manufactured.

  The charcoal to be solidified into a plate shape can be solidified into a plate shape by adding a joining fiber in addition to the binder.
