Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a mat for wiping feet wet with water by taking a bath, and more particularly to a mat for wiping feet which is excellent in water absorption and does not wet the floor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, this kind of foot wiping mat is made of various mat-like fabrics made of hydrophilic fiber such as cotton and having a surface area as large as possible. However, these have a weak water retention capacity, so they have a sticky feeling, they cannot wipe off the water enough, and moreover, water easily leaks to the floor,
Often results in floor corrosion.

[0003]

The conventional foot wiping mat has a problem that the absorption of water is weak, so the wiping of the water is not sufficient, and the leaked water tends to corrode the floor surface. .

[0004] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a method of wiping water which is extremely excellent and causes corrosion of a floor surface. It is intended to provide a foot-free mat without footwear.

[0005]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, a foot wiping mat according to the present invention comprises a flat material having a protruding portion covered with a bag made of paper pulp containing a highly water-absorbent resin. It is.

The portion of the foot wiping mat of the present invention which absorbs water is a bag-like material made of paper pulp containing a highly water-absorbing resin, and the shape thereof is arbitrary along with the color and pattern, such as a square or an oval. . Examples of the superabsorbent resin include sodium polyacrylate, saponified vinyl acetate-methyl acrylate copolymer,
Saponified vinyl acetate-monomethyl maleate copolymer,
Isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer saponified product, starch-acrylic acid graft polymer, polysaccharide-acrylic acid graft polymer, starch-acrylonitrile graft polymer hydrolyzate, cross-linked carboxymethyl cellulose, cross-linked polyethylene oxide What is already known can be used. These are 400 per gram
It has the characteristic ability to absorb more than g of water. Paper pulp containing superabsorbent resin is formed by mechanically converting kraft pulp or sulfite pulp from ground wood into fibrous material and dispersing and mixing the powder of superabsorbent resin to form paper. . Since the paper-like pulp main body has a function of rapidly holding water by a capillary structure, the held water is absorbed by the superabsorbent resin. The paper pulp body releases almost all of the absorbed water to the outside when pressure is applied. That is, the water filling the gap between the substrates is easily squeezed out. On the other hand, the superabsorbent resin has a much higher water retention capacity under pressure than the paper pulp body.

[0007] The flat material having a protrusion, which is the core of the foot-wiping mat, has a corresponding rigidity, and the protrusion guides the contact area between the bag-like material and the back surface of the foot to be large. Yes,
It can take any shape. For example, a synthetic resin flat plate or the like in which finely corrugated ridges are provided on the front and back surfaces over the entire surface is suitable, but a synthetic resin straw knitted like a paste can also be used as a flat plate.

[0008] In covering the plate-like material with the bag-like material, the bag-like material may be formed by partitioning the inside according to the shape of the plate-like material. The open end of the bag is closed with a sewing machine, an adhesive, a stapler, or the like.

[0009]

[Function] The foot-wiping mat absorbs moisture when used and is discarded when it is deemed that it has reached its limit, or the bag-like material is cut and removed from the plate-like material and replaced with a new bag-like material. It can be reused.

[0010]

An embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, the size of the bag-shaped material 1 is 32 cm in length and 60 cm in width, and the paper pulp containing the highly water-absorbent resin, which is the material thereof, is a paper kraft pulp in which sodium polyacrylate is dispersed. ing. As the flat plate-shaped material 2 shown in FIG. 2, two sheets each having a length of 29 cm and a width of 27 cm, which are formed by forming polypropylene into a straw shape and knitting in a paste shape, are used. FIG. 3 shows that the outer peripheral surface of the straw forms the protrusion 3. The bag 1 has a thickness of about 0.
The two 5 mm-thick ones are stacked, the center is partitioned, and two plate-like objects 2 are inserted into each, and the opening is closed. The bag-like material 1 was formed by sewing. In addition, the bag-like material 1 can be used even if a non-woven fabric made of polypropylene or the like is stacked and reinforced.

[0011]

[Effects of the Invention] The present invention has the following effects because it is configured as described above. The foot wiping mat of the present invention uses paper pulp containing a highly water-absorbent resin for water absorption, so it has a very large water absorption capacity, so it feels good to the touch and feels dry. can do. Moisture is completely absorbed and no water leaks to the floor. Therefore, corrosion due to water leakage on the floor surface can be prevented. Since the flat material used for the core of the foot wipe mat has a protrusion, the surface area of the bag-like material in contact with the foot surface is increased, and the water absorption speed is increased.
It also has the effect of draining the drainage from the feet. The used bag-like material can be cut and removed from the plate-like material, replaced with a new bag-like material, and the plate-like material can be used repeatedly. Since both the bag-like material and the plate-like material constituting the foot wiping mat of the present invention can be mass-produced at low cost, the present invention is extremely large in terms of benefit to daily life.
