[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a mat, and more particularly to a mat for wiping feet which wipes off and attracts dust such as mud and dust attached to footwear.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 At the entrances and exits of buildings where people enter and exit, at the entrances and exits of individual offices in buildings, and at the entrances and exits of shops and restaurants, the feet are unconsciously seen when the doors are opened. In addition, a mat for wiping feet such as mud or dust adhering to footwear such as shoes or sucking rainwater adhering to footwear in the event of rain is placed at such an entrance. .

The above-mentioned conventional foot wiping mat is mainly made of a square or rectangular rubber base to be placed on the floor surface, and a slightly smaller than this base, and is mainly made of a fiber that can wipe off and absorb dust. Made of foot wipes. In addition to an integrated base and foot wiping material, there is a type in which the foot wiping material can be removed from the base by using a fastener such as a hook-and-loop fastener.

[0004] Foot wiping materials are made of pile materials, nonwoven fabric materials, etc., in addition to woven fabrics such as carpets made of synthetic fibers. In addition, a thin rubber or cloth sheet serving as a core material is integrated on the back of the foot-wiping material.

[0005] Such a mat is laid in the doorway so that when the footwear of a person entering or exiting the footwear gets on the foot-wiping material, the dust adhering to the footwear is wiped off and adsorbed. The floor does not get dirty. In addition, the floor is not wet because it absorbs rainwater. Even if the foot wipe absorbs moisture, the base is made of rubber and has the advantage that moisture does not leak to the floor. Some foot wipes are chemically processed using a dust-absorbing agent to improve dust absorption.

[0006]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 In the above-mentioned mat, the foot-wiping material is not simply plain, but also displays characters such as "Welcome", "WELLCOME", "TANKYOU" on the plain, and various patterns and animals. There is a picture of a character, an anime character, etc. displayed with color.

[0007] Since these characters, patterns, and the like are directly displayed on the foot-wiping material, they are easily soiled and need to be replaced for washing and reuse. When it became difficult to remove dirt, only the foot wipes were replaced with new foot wipes. In particular, mats in which the base and foot wipes are integrated have to be replaced or discarded, resulting in large economic losses and little decorativeness or added value as a whole. .

[0008] In view of the conventional mat, the present invention makes it possible to attach and detach a decorative body such as a character, a pattern, a picture, and the like on which a special 3D image is printed and displayed, and to make it possible to replace only the decorative body, thereby providing decorativeness. The purpose is to provide a mat for wiping feet with enhanced added value, such as advertising.
