DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a walkway for wearing a spike shoe (hereinafter referred to as a "spike shoe walkway") such as a golf course path, a cart path or around a clubhouse, an athletics stadium or a soccer stadium. And a spike shoes walking path using the mat.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, a method of paving an asphalt-based pavement material on a step path, a cart path, or the vicinity of a club house of a golf course where a spike shoe such as a golf shoe is used for walking is used. It is formed by a method of laminating or casting a rubber sheet or mat of urethane resin or the like, a method of paving the surface of an asphalt pavement material with a pavement material comprising a rubber chip and a binder of urethane resin or the like.

[0003] However, the walking path or the like paved with asphalt paving material has poor elasticity of the pavement surface. Therefore, when walking with a golf shoe, the impact at the time of landing by a metal spike pin implanted in the golf shoe is generated. There is a drawback that gives golfers discomfort.

A method of attaching a rubber sheet to a base of an asphalt pavement material has a somewhat poor cushioning property and lacks permeability, so that rainwater accumulates when rain falls, and swells as the use time elapses. There was a disadvantage that it shifted.

[0005] Further, there has not been a mat dedicated to a spiked shoe walking path such as a step path, but a flat lattice-shaped mat such as that shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-27421 as shown in FIG. Sometimes used for paths.
However, although this grid-like mat is suitable for protecting grass, it is not intended for walking on a step path or the like, so the direction of the traveling direction is not considered at all. There was a danger of falling over because it was caught on the grid in the horizontal direction.

[0006] A walking path or the like on which rubber chips are paved has been widely used in golf courses at present, because the impact at the time of landing is reduced and the walking feeling is excellent. However, when used for a long time, there is a danger that the rubber chip on the surface of the frequently walked area will be peeled off, or if frost or ice adheres to the surface in winter in a cold region, it will slip and fall.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide an excellent walking sensation and a risk of falling due to spikes or frost. An object of the present invention is to provide a mat for a spike shoes walkway which is durable and has excellent permeability and a spike shoes walkway using the same.

[0008]

In order to achieve the object of the present invention, a large number of mats for a spiked shoe walking path according to the present invention are arranged in parallel with a gap such that spike pins can enter, and the upper surface of the mat has a walking surface. A rectangular rod-shaped long member made of an elastic material made of rubber or synthetic resin, and a plurality of connecting ribs for connecting these side-by-side long members laterally at the bottom thereof. The connecting ribs fit into the gaps. It is provided at a position below the lower end of the inserted spike pin.

Further, according to the present invention, the mat for a spiked shoe walking path is laid such that the longitudinal direction of the rectangular rod-shaped elongate member is in the traveling direction, and the shoulder of the mat road is made of an elastic pavement material comprising a rubber chip and a binder. A spike shoes walking path characterized by being paved is provided.

[0010]

The pavement mat according to the present invention has a rectangular rod-like elongated member arranged side by side with a gap enough to fit the spike pin, and further provided below the lower end of the spike pin into which the connecting rib is fitted. Therefore, when used on a step path of a golf course or the like, spikes are not trapped even when walking with golf shoes. Further, since the walking surface of the strip of the pavement mat of the present invention is formed in a continuous mountain shape, it is difficult to slip, and rainwater easily reaches the pavement base from between the square rod-shaped members, so that the permeability is excellent.

[0011]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1A is an enlarged plan view of a part of a mat for a spike shoes walkway of the present invention, and FIG.
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view as viewed in the direction of arrow A, and FIG.

The mat for a spiked shoe walking path according to the present invention comprises a plurality of rubber or synthetic resin rectangular rod-shaped long members 1 and connecting ribs 2 for connecting the bottoms of the rectangular rod-shaped long members 1 in the lateral direction.
The upper surface of the rectangular rod-shaped elongate member 1 provides a walking surface,
Since this walking surface is formed in a mountain shape as shown in FIG. 1 (c), it has a structure that does not slip easily when walking.

Further, since the connecting rib 2 is provided below the lower end of the spike pin of a spike shoe such as a golf shoe or an athletic shoe into which the spike pin fits, the spike pin is connected to the connecting rib even when walking with these spike shoes. Since there is no risk of getting stuck, it is possible to walk smoothly. Normally, the length of the spike pin of a golf shoe is about 8 mm. Therefore, when the spike shoe walkway mat of the present invention is used for a stroll path of a golf course, the upper surface 2a of the connecting rib 2 and the rectangular rod-shaped long member 1 D to the top surface of
Is set to 10 to 12 mm.

The size of the square rod-shaped member is not particularly limited. For example, the width is about 10 to 17 mm and the height is 17 to 2 mm.
About 0 mm is preferable in terms of walking feeling.

The interval between the rectangular rod-shaped long members is not particularly limited as long as there is a gap into which the spike pins can easily fit. For example, the interval is preferably about 10 to 17 mm.

The size of the connecting rib is not particularly limited. However, by suppressing the thickness to about 7 to 8 mm, flexibility is created in the lateral direction of the mat, and the mat can be wound and stored / transported, or the unevenness of the mat can be improved. There are advantages such as easy installation on a certain walking path.

If the walking surface of the rectangular rod-shaped walking member of the present invention has a shape that is not slippery, other than those having a cross section of a right triangle shown in FIG. 1C, for example, FIGS. 2A and 2B ), The cross section may be an isosceles triangular shape or a groove formed.

The material of the mat for a spiked shoe walkway of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it is an elastic material made of rubber or synthetic resin. However, from the viewpoint of durability and economy, diene-based materials such as natural rubber, styrene rubber and isoprene are used. What is necessary is just to shape | mold with rubber | gum, such as rubber, butyl rubber, olefin rubber, such as acrylic rubber, or synthetic resin elastic bodies, such as polyurethane and polystyrene elastomer. It should be noted that if these elastic materials are too hard, the walking sensation deteriorates.
A hardness in the range of 40 to 90, preferably 60 to 80 in A hardness may be appropriately selected.

The mat for a spiked shoe walking path according to the present invention can be widely used in a place where a person walks while wearing spiked shoes, for example, on a walking path of a golf course, a cart path or around a clubhouse, an athletic field or a soccer field. it can. The mat of the present invention may be temporarily laid in the passage only when it is necessary to wear spike shoes,
The spike shoes walking path may be fixed to a pavement base or the like by a method described below.

FIG. 3A is a view for explaining a state in which the mat for a spike shoes walking path of the present invention is constructed. In order to construct the mat for a spiked shoe walkway of the present invention, the rectangular rod-shaped long member 1 is laid on the surface of a pavement base 4 such as asphalt or concrete so that the longitudinal direction of the long member 1 becomes the traveling direction, and both sides thereof are laid. The road shoulder is paved with a paving material composed of rubber chips and a binder. An adhesive is used to fix the spiked shoe walkway mat to a base such as asphalt pavement, or a nail 5 as shown in FIG.
If it is cast on the pavement foundation 4, it will be more firmly fixed.

When laying the mat of the present invention shown in FIG. 1, as shown in FIG. 1 (c), it is better to lay the rectangular rod-shaped long member so that the vertical surface of the right triangle is in front. It is preferable because it increases the performance and does not slip even on a slope.

By paving the shoulder portion of the mat for a spike shoes walking road with a rubber chip, the mat is firmly fixed, and the step between the mat and the groundwork is eliminated, so that it is possible to prevent a fall due to stumbling or a sprain caused by stepping off. it can.

The rubber chips used for paving the mat road shoulder are preferably about 1 to 3 mm in size, and if waste tires are used as raw materials, rubber resources can be recycled, which can contribute to resource saving.

Usually, a urethane resin may be used as the binder, and a binder which solidifies at room temperature is preferable from the viewpoint of ease of construction.

In one embodiment of paving a road shoulder with rubber chips, first, the base of a pavement such as asphalt or concrete is cleaned and dried, and then a primer is applied.
After laying a mixture of a rubber chip and a binder, the surface may be formed with a roller or the like. Thereafter, the binder is hardened by leaving the mat, and the mat for the spike shoes walkway is firmly fixed to the pavement base.

As shown in FIG. 4 (a), the mat of the present invention has a pavement base 4 made of asphalt, concrete or the like.
In order to fix it directly to the ground or the like, it may be fixed with a U-shaped nail 6 as shown in FIG.

Further, when the mat of the present invention is used for a walking path of a golf course, by coloring some of the rectangular rod-shaped long members at the center of the mat, the route to the next hole is clearly specified, and This has the effect that even golfers who have visited will not be mistaken for the next hole.

[0028]

The mat for a spike shoes walkway of the present invention and the spike shoes walkway using the same have the following excellent effects. (1) Since the spike is not caught, it is possible to prevent a fall. (2) Since the surface of the strip of the mat for the spike shoes walking road has a mountain shape or the like, it is not slippery. (4) Since a mat is laid and only the road shoulder is paved with rubber chips, the construction is completed in a shorter time than the construction method in which the entire pavement base is paved with rubber chips. (5) The repair can be completed only in a short time because the mat only needs to be replaced. (6) Since the surface of the strip of the mat for the spike shoes walking path is formed in a mountain shape or the like, shock at the time of landing is reduced, and an excellent walking feeling can be obtained. (7) Compared with the rubber chip pavement material, it is as durable as a conventional rubber mat. (8) Since it has good permeability similarly to the conventional lattice rubber mat, it does not accumulate rainwater or ice.
