過剰量の糸屑をもたらした。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, dust control mats such as those disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,761,065 have been developed to prevent the mat from moving when placed on a surface to be protected.
The bottom surface is formed with an anti-slip body. Various types of anti-slip shapes and arrangements that provide anti-migration properties have been used, but there have been problems associated with them.
Most of the included non-slip bodies are very small, and many of these anti-slip bodies have a constant spacing across the back of the mat. The molding pad used to form the pattern is difficult and expensive to manufacture due to the many holes in the pad required to extrude the rubber through it to form the non-slip during vulcanization. This has led to problems in molding since they are subject to tearing and have a reduced service life. In addition, dust control mats having a large number of small anti-skids on the backside caused excessive amounts of lint during processing in the washing machine due to the loss of pile fibers from the surface of the mat.

Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become more readily apparent as the invention is described with reference to the drawings.

In other words, the length of the anti-slip body 22 is substantially five times its width. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the floor or surface that engages the surface of the anti-slip body is roughened or roughened to increase its frictional resistance.

Make an angle of °. It can be seen that the non-slip body 22 has about two anti-slip bodies per 4 square inches of the back of the mat and has a wide space between other anti-slip bodies.

Then they have equal distance intervals. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, there are six substantially circular antiskids 23 in each line between the antiskids 22, but this number is only preferred and other numbers of slips if desired. The prevention body 23 may be used. The limited number of circular anti-skids 23 in the arrangement shown is significant when installed on a loop pile carpet if the diameter of each circular anti-slip does not exceed 3/32 inch. In addition, maintain high resistance to mat movement. As can be readily seen, the plane through the circular antiskid 23 in each set is at an angle approximately equal to the angle of the long axis of the antiskid with respect to the border 24.

ってのみ限定されることが望ましい。The above-described anti-slip arrangement provides substantially the same firm floor mobility as that of a flat backside design, but is significantly better than the small anti-slip which is widely used in modern dust control mats. It has mobility. In addition to improved mobility, the new anti-slip pattern provides a larger size anti-slip, requiring substantially less anti-slip, and moving the automobile tire on wet roads Increases the frictional resistance between the mat and the wet floor, similar to the action of This causes a less aggressive rubbing action on the mat pile during the washing process in the washing machine, which significantly reduces fraying. In addition, rubber molded pads are more easily made, and it is believed that they can be manufactured on simple rotary punches, rather than the costly vertical punches currently used. The resulting pad, due to the larger spacing between the anti-slip bodies,
It also has greater resistance to tearing. While the preferred embodiments of the invention have been particularly described, modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the invention, and the invention is desirably limited only by the claims.
