Description

The present invention is mainly used in other wet areas such as in front of bathroom entrances and undressing areas of bathhouses in facilities such as hotels, hot spring facilities and sports facilities with many users, and around toilets and hand-washing facilities. Concerning floor finish structure.

  Conventionally, the floor before the bathroom entrance of a dressing room in a bathhouse provided in a hotel, hot spring facility, sports facility, etc. has been easily wetted by water droplets adhering to the body when the bather leaves after bathing, and moisture For this reason, it is often used as a drainer by putting a bath mat or cocoon bud before the bathroom entrance.

However, even if a hot water mat is laid, if the number of users increases, the wet condition will progress, and the hot water will become wet, and discomfort will increase for people who are slow to use. There existed a fault of being easy to corrode, being inferior in durability, and being slippery.

  In addition, there is a risk that the floor surface and the rising mat and the floor surface around the rising mat get wet, so that the floor falls due to stumbling or sliding. Furthermore, in order to increase the moisture absorption effect, there are a number of drawbacks such as the hot water rising mat being disturbed even if the hot water rising mat is laid in a wide range.

On the other hand, facilities such as hotels, hot spring facilities, and sports facilities on the facility side also have problems such as increased management work and costs such as regular replacement and washing of hot-water mats, and replacement of salmon.

Conventionally, in order to solve these problems, a moisture-absorbing material containing at least diatomaceous earth, and a superabsorbent tile formed in a plane rectangular shape, and a support board capable of supporting a plurality of superabsorbent tiles side by side are supported. A foot wipe mat characterized in that the superabsorbent tile has a length of 150 to 450 mm in length and width of 5 to 20 mm is known (see Patent Document 1).

  However, since the conventional technology is used by being placed on the floor surface of the bathroom entrance / exit, there will be a step in the convex part on the floor surface, and when walking on the floor surface, it will be stumbled or fall over easily. There is also a risk of becoming.

  In addition, since the foot cleaning mat is only placed on the floor surface, the position of the foot cleaning mat is likely to be shifted, thereby reducing the water absorption effect as a bath mat, which is the original function, or in front of the bathroom entrance / exit. There was a problem that the periphery of the glass was easily wetted.

  The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, provides a floor finishing structure using diatomaceous earth that is useful, matches a bathroom entrance, etc., and is easy to construct. A concave portion provided in the mortar part to be formed, and a clay-like moisture absorbing material kneaded with diatomaceous earth as a main component and binder and water are applied to the concave part, and then naturally dried, perpendicular to the floor surface of the floor A floor finishing structure using diatomaceous earth in a water-wetting region, characterized in that it is configured without rising steps and is provided with a moisture-absorbing part configured without a gap at the interface with the mortar part.

Furthermore, the present invention is the bathing area provided in facilities such as hotels, hot spring facilities and sports facilities, and the dressing area of the bathing area, wherein the concave portion is in front of the bathroom entrance in the dressing area. A floor finishing structure using diatomaceous earth in a water-wetting region, characterized in that it is provided in a mortar part constituting the floor, is also preferable.

Furthermore, the present invention may be a floor finishing structure using diatomaceous earth in a water-wetting area, characterized in that the recess is provided both inside and outside the boundary of the bathroom entrance.

Furthermore, the present invention is a water-wetting area characterized in that the length of the concave portion in the front-rear direction with respect to the bathroom doorway is in the range of about 600 to 1200 mm including the hulls provided at the boundary of the bathroom doorway. The floor finish structure using diatomaceous earth is preferable.

The floor finish structure using diatomaceous earth in the water-wetting area of the present invention thus constructed is a diatomaceous earth floor surface consisting of the upper surface of the moisture absorption part before the bathroom entrance and exit of the bathing room changing clothes due to the high moisture absorption and moisture release function of diatomaceous earth. However, it is also recommended for those who leave one after another because the moisture absorption part quickly wicks away moisture and returns the floor surface to a dry state after absorbing moisture adhering to the soles of the bathers when they leave the bath. By eliminating the need to step on a wet floor surface, discomfort can be greatly reduced, or a floor finish structure that does not feel uncomfortable can be provided.

Further, the floor finishing structure using diatomaceous earth in the water-wetting area of the present invention is provided not only in front of the bathroom entrance / exit on the dressing room side, but also on the bathroom side by providing the recesses both inside and outside the boundary of the bathroom entrance / exit. It is also preferable to constitute the diatomaceous earth floor composed of the upper surface of the moisture absorbing portion in the same manner before the bathroom entrance / exit. On the moisture absorption part provided on the bathroom side, once the bather after bathing stops to wipe the body, the bather steps on the diatom earth floor while wiping the body. Moisture adhering to the back of the bag can be absorbed more effectively at the stage before going out to the dressing room. Thus, since the moisture absorption effect increases, a more comfortable bathing state can be maintained.

Furthermore, the floor finishing structure using diatomaceous earth in the water-wetting area of the present invention is substantially the same width as the hullers provided at the boundary of the bathroom entrance and the length in the front-rear direction with respect to the bathroom entrance is the bathroom. It is preferable to configure in a range of about 600 to 1200 mm including the hullers provided at the entrance / exit boundary.

If the general stride of an adult is about 600 mm and the length is 600 mm from the pallet, the diatom floor can be stepped on two steps (both feet once), and if the length is 1200 mm, You can step on the diatomaceous earth floor 3-4 steps (both feet once or twice). This prevents one of the bather's feet from passing through the diatom earth floor without stepping on it. Moreover, even if there is a drop or scattering of water adhering to the body at the time of withdrawal after bathing, a bather with a slow use time absorbs water sufficiently when the length is 1200 mm than when the length is 600 mm. Therefore, it is possible to continue the good feeling of bathing even when the bather who bathes one after another leaves the bath after bathing.

In addition, the size of the floor finish structure using diatomaceous earth in the water-wetting area of the present invention and the planar shape thereof are the areas of bathing clothes changing rooms and bathrooms provided in facilities such as hotels, hot spring facilities and sports facilities, or It is preferable to decide in consideration of the number of bathers and the design.

Further, the thickness of the diatomaceous earth floor surface is formed with a concave portion before the bathroom entrance and exit of an existing dressing room, and a clay-like moisture absorbing material formed by kneading diatomaceous earth as a main component with binder and water is applied to the concave portion. After that, in order to reduce the material cost of the diatomaceous earth surface composed of the naturally-absorbed moisture-absorbing part and to secure the hygroscopicity of the diatomaceous earth surface, the thickness of the hygroscopic part is set to about 10 to 15 mm. It is preferable.

Moreover, although a synthetic resin can also be used as a binder, it is preferable to use natural materials, such as volcanic ash, lime, or a vegetable fiber, in order not to block the hole which comprises the porous structure of diatomaceous earth.

Further, since the height of the diatomaceous earth floor surface is eliminated from a step that rises perpendicularly to the floor surface of the mortar part, when walking on the diatomaceous earth floor surface, there is no stumbling, and the hygroscopic part and the side wall of the recess Even when a bather walks on the diatomaceous earth floor surface, the moisture absorbing portion does not move and the diatomaceous earth floor surface quickly absorbs moisture. Since the floor surface that is hard to slip can be maintained because it dries, as a result, the bather hardly falls down without placing a foot-wiping mat or the like on the floor before the bathroom entrance.

The mortar part is either mortar that can be prepared by mixing and stirring cement, sand, and water, or concrete that can be prepared by mixing and stirring cement, sand, gravel, and water, or mortar and concrete. A configuration in which both are used in combination is also preferable.

Further, the diatomaceous earth comprising the moisture-absorbing part, which is naturally dried after a clay-like moisture-absorbing material composed mainly of diatomaceous earth and kneaded with a binder and water is directly applied to the recess formed in the mortar part. Since the floor surface is formed, no gap is formed at the interface between the mortar portion and diatomaceous earth, and excess water does not accumulate at the interface.

In addition, after the clay-like moisture absorbing material kneaded with diatomaceous earth as a main component and kneaded with a binder and water is directly applied, when the moisture absorbing material is still in a soft state, a pre-designed letterpress type printing block, or By lightly pressing the moisture-absorbing material with the resin pattern plate, the tasteless dry floor surface can bring about the designed aesthetics and fun in addition to the water absorption effect.

In addition, as described above, the floor finishing structure using diatomaceous earth in the water-wetting area of the present invention has a deodorizing effect, suppression of mold and mites, and a floor mat, in addition to a high moisture absorption / moisture release function. There are significant advantages such as the suppression of power, water, and detergents from washing machines.

According to the floor finishing structure using diatomaceous earth in the water-wetting area of the present invention, as described above, the concave portion provided in the mortar portion of the floor surface before the entrance of the bathroom, and the concave portion provided with diatomaceous earth as a main component in the concave portion and water After the clay-like hygroscopic material kneaded in is applied, it is naturally dried and formed a diatomaceous earth floor surface composed of a hygroscopic portion that rises perpendicular to the floor surface of the floor. Thus, it is possible to eliminate the fall of the bather due to the level difference of the convex part of the floor, the displacement of the foot-wiping mat, and the wetness of the surroundings before the entrance to the bathroom due to the displacement.

In addition, as described above, the size of the diatomaceous earth floor surface is approximately the same width as the hullers provided at the boundary of the bathroom doorway, and the hullers provided at the boundary of the bathroom doorway The length is in the range of about 600 to 1200 mm including the diatom, and the diatom earth floor of that size ensures that the bather walks at least 2 steps, 3 steps, or 4 steps when leaving after bathing. The bather's feet can always step on the diatom floor. By this, even if there is dripping or scattering of water adhering to the body of the bather, by stepping on the diatomaceous earth floor surface, diatomaceous earth in the water-wetting area can be immediately and sufficiently absorbed by water. The floor finish structure used can be provided.

In addition, since the height of the diatomaceous earth floor surface is almost eliminated from a step rising up perpendicularly to the floor surface of the mortar part, when the diatomaceous earth floor surface is walked, the hygroscopic part is not stumbled. By adhering without gaps at the interface with the side wall, the hygroscopic part does not move even when a bather walks on the diatom earth floor, and further, after the diatom earth floor absorbs moisture, Since the floor surface that is hard to slip can be maintained because it dries quickly, as a result, the bather rarely falls over the floor before the bathroom entrance / exit with a foot-wiping mat or the like.

In addition, the concave portion is provided both inside and outside the boundary of the bathroom entrance and exit, not only before the bathroom entrance and exit on the dressing room side, but also before the bathroom entrance and exit on the bathroom side. By configuring the diatom earth floor surface, when the bather leaves after bathing, the diatom earth floor surface on both the bathroom side and the dressing room side will pass through, so that the moisture absorption effect is further increased. A more comfortable bathing condition can be maintained.
