Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、発泡体からなるクッション体に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、自動車の座席や座椅子等に、ウレタン発泡体等からなるクッション体が多用されている。しかし、従来のクッション体は、着座する際の初期圧縮時に着座者に硬さを感じさせることがある。
【0003】
クッション体の初期圧縮時の硬さを改善する方法として、クッション体表面にスリットを形成して変形し易くしたり、低硬度の発泡体と高硬度の発泡体を積層して低硬度側を表層としたりする方法が提案されている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところが、前記クッション体表面にスリットを形成したものにあっては、クッション体表面が弱くなるため、裂けや破れの原因になりやすい。また、硬さの異なる発泡体を積層したものにあっては、表面を柔らかくするために表層の発泡体と基層の発泡体とで硬度差を大きくすると、着座時に硬さの急変による違和感を生じやすくなる。しかも、硬度の異なる発泡体を積層したものは、接着等により発泡体を一体化する作業が必要になるため、作業が面倒で高価になる。
【0005】
この発明は、前記の点に鑑みなされたもので、着座する際の初期圧縮時に硬さによる不快感を感じ難く、しかも表面の強度低下が無く、さらに硬さの急変による違和感を生じ難い安価なクッション体を提供するものである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項1の発明は、発泡体からなるクッション体であって、前記発泡体は軟質ウレタンフォームからなり、前記クッション体に対して垂直方向のセル径が水平方向のセル径以下にされた横拡径セルからなる横拡径セル層と、前記クッション体に対して垂直方向に長い縦長セルからなる縦長セル層とが、前記クッション体の垂直方向に隣接すると共に、前記横拡径セル層がクッション体の片側又は両側の表層として形成された軟質ウレタンフォームからなることを特徴とする。
【0007】
請求項2の発明は、請求項1におけるクッション体の発泡体を、前記クッション体に対して垂直方向に長い縦長セルからなる縦長セル構造の発泡体が、前記縦長セルにおける長径の圧縮方向に熱プレスされたものとしたことを特徴とする。
【0008】
請求項3の発明は、請求項2におけるクッション体の発泡体を、前記発泡体の熱プレス前の元厚に対して10〜25%の圧縮率で熱プレスされたものとしたことを特徴とする。
【0009】
請求項4の発明は、請求項2又は3における縦長セル構造の発泡体が、軟質ウレタンスラブフォームの裁断品からなることを特徴とする。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下添付の図面に従ってこの発明を詳細に説明する。
図1はこの発明に係る一実施例のクッション体の断面図、図2は図1のA部を拡大した概略図、図3は他の実施例に係るクッション体の断面図、図4はこの発明に係る一実施例のクッション体における製造時の熱プレスを示す断面図、図5は軟質ウレタンスラブフォームからの発泡体の裁断を示す概略図である。
【0011】
図1及び図2に示すこの発明の一実施例に係るクッション体10は、横拡径セル層11と縦長セル層21とが、前記クッション体10に対して垂直方向Vに隣接すると共に、前記横拡径セル層11がクッション体10の両側の表層12,12として形成された一つの発泡体10aで構成されている。前記発泡体10aは、軟質ウレタンフォーム、特には軟質ウレタンスラブフォームの裁断品のような弾性を有するものが用いられる。符号Hはクッション体10に対して水平方向を示す。なお、前記垂直方向Vは、前記クッション体10の座面となる片側表面11aに垂直な方向と一致する。また、前記セルは気孔とも称される。
【0012】
前記横拡径セル層11は、前記クッション体10の垂直方向のセル径dv1が水平方向のセル径dh1以下にされた横拡径セル11sで構成された層からなる。他方、前記縦長セル層21は、前記クッション体10に対して垂直方向のセル径dv2が水平方向のセル径dh2よりも大の縦長セル21sで構成された層からなる。なお、この実施例のクッション体10においては、前記横拡径セル層11がクッション体10の両側表層12,12として形成されているため、前記縦長セル層21がクッション体10の中間層22を構成している。前記、横拡径セル層11からなる表層12はクッション体10の片側のみに形成されてもよい。前記横拡径セル層11からなる表層12の厚み、この例では両側の表層12,12の合計厚みは、前記クッション体10の全厚みを100%とすると5〜25%が好ましい。この範囲にすると、クッション性や耐久性を損なわずに初期圧縮時の硬さが軽減されて座り心地が良好になる。
【0013】
前記クッション体10の発泡体10aは、図4に示すように、前記クッション体10に対して垂直方向Vに長い縦長セル21sで構成される縦長セル構造の発泡体Fが、前記縦長セル21sの長径に相当する垂直方向のセル径dv2の圧縮方向Pへ熱板41で熱プレスされ、放冷等によって冷却されることにより圧縮形状に塑性変形したものが好ましい。前記熱プレス時、縦長セル構造の発泡体Fは、弾性を有するため、熱板41で押圧される表面付近で主に圧縮されて、表面から離れる発泡体中央部では圧縮量が少なくなるので、効率よく表面付近の縦長セルが圧縮され、水平方向Hに拡径した前記横拡径セル11sになる。熱プレスの温度は、熱プレスされる発泡体の種類により異なるが、発泡体が軟質ウレタンフォーム(軟質ウレタンスラブフォームを含む)の場合には120〜240℃が好ましい。
【0014】
なお、図4における一方の熱板41を、加熱しないプレス板に代えれば、図3に示すように、横拡径セル層11からなる表層12が片側表面のみに形成された発泡体からなるクッション体10Aを得ることができる。この場合、前記縦長セル層21は、前記クッション体10Aの基層23を構成する。
【0015】
前記熱プレスされた発泡体10aは、前記発泡体10aの熱プレス前の元厚に対して圧縮率10〜25%で熱プレスされて塑性変形したものが好ましい。この範囲の圧縮率でプレスすれば、発泡体10aの表面側でセルが完全に潰れず、適度なソフト感を得ることができる。なお、前記圧縮率(%)は(元厚−圧縮時の厚み)÷元厚×100(%)を言う。熱プレス前の元厚は、1〜30cmの範囲が、クッション体として好ましい。
【0016】
前記縦長セル構造の発泡体Fとしては、軟質ウレタンスラブフォームの裁断品が好適である。前記軟質ウレタンスラブフォームは原反とも称されるものであって、離型紙上にウレタンフォーム原料を流して鉛直方向上向きに発泡させたものである。図5に示すように、軟質ウレタンスラブフォーム30は、発泡方向Kに対して平行方向Ku(軟質ウレタンスラブフォーム30に対して垂直方向と一致する)に縦長なセル構造となっているため、前記軟質ウレタンスラブフォーム30を発泡方向Kに対して直角方向Ksに裁断し、得られた所要厚みの発泡体Fに対して、裁断面Faを熱プレスすれば、容易に前記クッション体10の発泡体10aが得られる。
【0017】
(実施例)
密度40±2kg/m、硬さ210.8±39.2N(JIS K 6400:98に準拠)の軟質ウレタンスラブフォームを、発泡方向に対して直角方向に裁断して55×400×400mmの縦長セル構造の発泡体を得、その発泡体を熱プレス装置の熱板間に配置して、圧縮率18%となるように45mmの厚みに熱プレスし、その状態を210℃で6分間保持した。その後、熱プレス装置から発泡体を取り出し、常温で放置してこの発明の実施例であるクッション体を得た。実施例のクッション体は、厚み45mmであった。
【0018】
前記実施例のクッション体を、セル層の厚みが観察できる方向で裁断し、熱プレス時に上側とされた上側表面から内層に至るまで、セルの分布変化を目視で判定した。その結果、熱プレス時に上側とされた上側表面には横拡径セル層からなる表層が厚み3.9mmで形成されており、また熱プレス時に下側とされた下側表面には横拡径セル層が厚み3.4mmで形成されており、クッション体の全厚み(45mm)に対して横拡径セル層の厚み(3.9mm+3.4mm=7.3mm)は16.2%であった。なお、熱プレス後の24時間、常温で実施例のクッション体を放置したが、実施例のクッション体は、厚み及び形状に変化が無く、熱プレスにより塑性変形して形状が固定されているのを確認できた。
【0019】
また、実施例のクッション体に対して、荷重と撓みの関係をJIS K 6400:98(付属書)にしたがい測定した。比較のため、前記熱プレスを行っていない縦長セルからなる比較例1のクッション体と、圧縮率3%で熱プレスした比較例2のクッション体と、圧縮率30%で熱プレスした比較例3のクッション体についても、実施例と同様にして荷重と撓みの関係を測定した。測定結果を図6〜図7に示す。
【0020】
測定結果によると、縦長セルからなる比較例1のクッション体においては初期圧縮時の荷重増加が大きく、しかも荷重増加の程度が急に低下するショルダー部Sと称される部分が存在し、圧縮初期の硬さを感じるものであることがわかる。それに対し、実施例のクッション体は、初期圧縮時の荷重増加が緩やかで、しかもショルダー部が明確ではなく、圧縮初期の硬さを感じ難いものであることがわかる。また、熱プレス時の圧縮率が3%の比較例2のクッション体においては、比較例1のクッション体と同様に初期圧縮時の荷重増加が大きく、しかもショルダー部Sが明確に現れているので、圧縮初期の硬さを感じるものであることがわかる。それに対し、熱プレス時の圧縮率が30%の比較例3のクッション体においては、撓み率(圧縮率)が50%以上になると、荷重の増大が他の比較例及び実施例のクッション体よりも著しく大きくなるため、クッション体としての性能が変化してしまう。
【0021】
【発明の効果】
以上図示し説明したように、この発明のクッション体によれば、クッション体の表面に強度低下の原因となるスリット等を形成することなく着座時の硬さ感及び違和感を解消できるので、着座感のみならず表面の耐久性に優れる効果がある。
【0022】
さらにこの発明のクッション体は、縦長セル構造の発泡体を熱プレスすることにより容易に得ることができ、複数の発泡体を積層接着する作業が不要なため、安価となる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a cushion body made of a foam.
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, cushion bodies made of urethane foam or the like are frequently used for automobile seats and seats. However, the conventional cushion body may make a seated person feel hardness at the time of the initial compression at the time of sitting.
[0003]
As a method of improving the hardness of the cushion body at the time of initial compression, a slit is formed on the cushion body surface to make it easy to deform, or a low-hardness foam and a high-hardness foam are laminated so that the low hardness side is the surface layer. The method of doing is proposed.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the case where a slit is formed on the cushion body surface, the cushion body surface becomes weak, and this tends to cause tearing or tearing. Also, in the case of laminated foams with different hardness, if the difference in hardness between the foam on the surface layer and the foam on the base layer is increased in order to soften the surface, there will be a sense of incongruity due to a sudden change in hardness when seated. It becomes easy. In addition, a laminate in which foams having different hardnesses are laminated requires an operation of integrating the foams by adhesion or the like, which makes the operation cumbersome and expensive.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
1 is a cross-sectional view of a cushion body according to one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a schematic view enlarging part A of FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a cushion body according to another embodiment, and FIG. Sectional drawing which shows the hot press at the time of manufacture in the cushion body of one Example which concerns on invention, FIG. 5 is schematic which shows cutting of the foam from a flexible urethane slab foam.
[0011]
1 and 2, the cushion body 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a laterally expanded cell layer 11 and a vertically elongated cell layer 21 that are adjacent to the cushion body 10 in the vertical direction V, and The laterally expanded cell layer 11 is composed of one foam 10 a formed as the surface layers 12, 12 on both sides of the cushion body 10. As the foam 10a, one having elasticity such as a cut product of a soft urethane foam, particularly a soft urethane slab foam, is used. Reference sign H indicates a horizontal direction with respect to the cushion body 10. The vertical direction V coincides with a direction perpendicular to the one-side surface 11a that serves as a seating surface of the cushion body 10. The cell is also referred to as a pore.
[0012]
The laterally expanded cell layer 11 is composed of a layer composed of laterally expanded cells 11s in which the vertical cell diameter dv1 of the cushion body 10 is equal to or smaller than the horizontal cell diameter dh1. On the other hand, the vertically long cell layer 21 is composed of a vertically long cell 21 s having a cell diameter dv2 in the vertical direction larger than the cell diameter dh2 in the horizontal direction with respect to the cushion body 10. In the cushion body 10 of this embodiment, since the laterally expanded cell layer 11 is formed as both side surface layers 12 and 12 of the cushion body 10, the vertically long cell layer 21 serves as the intermediate layer 22 of the cushion body 10. It is composed. The surface layer 12 including the laterally expanded cell layer 11 may be formed only on one side of the cushion body 10. The thickness of the surface layer 12 composed of the laterally expanded cell layer 11, in this example, the total thickness of the surface layers 12 and 12 on both sides is preferably 5 to 25% when the total thickness of the cushion body 10 is 100%. If it is in this range, the hardness at the time of initial compression is reduced without impairing cushioning properties and durability, and the sitting comfort is improved.
[0013]
As shown in FIG. 4, the foam body 10 a of the cushion body 10 includes a vertically long cell structure foam body F composed of long longitudinal cells 21 s that are long in the vertical direction V with respect to the cushion body 10. It is preferably one that is hot-pressed by the hot plate 41 in the compression direction P of the cell diameter dv2 in the vertical direction corresponding to the long diameter, and plastically deformed into a compressed shape by being cooled by cooling or the like. At the time of the hot press, the foam F having a vertically long cell structure has elasticity, so it is mainly compressed in the vicinity of the surface pressed by the hot plate 41, and the amount of compression is reduced in the center of the foam away from the surface. The vertically elongated cells near the surface are efficiently compressed to become the horizontally expanded cells 11s whose diameter is expanded in the horizontal direction H. The temperature of the hot press varies depending on the type of foam to be hot-pressed, but is preferably 120 to 240 ° C. when the foam is a flexible urethane foam (including a flexible urethane slab foam).
[0014]
If one hot plate 41 in FIG. 4 is replaced with a non-heated press plate, as shown in FIG. 3, a cushion made of a foam in which the surface layer 12 made of the laterally expanded cell layer 11 is formed only on one side surface. The body 10A can be obtained. In this case, the vertically long cell layer 21 constitutes the base layer 23 of the cushion body 10A.
[0015]
The hot-pressed foam 10a is preferably hot-pressed and plastically deformed at a compression rate of 10 to 25% with respect to the original thickness of the foam 10a before hot pressing. By pressing at a compression rate in this range, the cells are not completely crushed on the surface side of the foam 10a, and an appropriate soft feeling can be obtained. In addition, the said compression rate (%) says (original thickness-thickness at the time of compression) / original thickness x100 (%). The original thickness before hot pressing is preferably in the range of 1 to 30 cm as the cushion body.
[0016]
The foam F having the vertically long cell structure is preferably a cut product of a flexible urethane slab foam. The flexible urethane slab foam is also referred to as a raw fabric, and is obtained by causing a urethane foam raw material to flow on a release paper and foaming upward in the vertical direction. As shown in FIG. 5, the flexible urethane slab foam 30 has a vertically long cell structure in a direction Ku parallel to the foaming direction K (corresponding to a direction perpendicular to the flexible urethane slab foam 30). If the flexible urethane slab foam 30 is cut in the direction Ks perpendicular to the foaming direction K, and the cut surface Fa is hot-pressed to the foam F having the required thickness, the foam of the cushion body 10 can be easily obtained. 10a is obtained.
[0017]
(Example)
A flexible urethane slab foam having a density of 40 ± 2 kg / m 3 and a hardness of 210.8 ± 39.2N (conforming to JIS K 6400: 98) is cut in a direction perpendicular to the foaming direction to be 55 × 400 × 400 mm. A foam having a vertically long cell structure is obtained, and the foam is placed between hot plates of a hot press apparatus and hot-pressed to a thickness of 45 mm so that the compression ratio is 18%, and the state is maintained at 210 ° C. for 6 minutes. did. Thereafter, the foam was taken out from the hot press apparatus and allowed to stand at room temperature to obtain a cushion body according to an embodiment of the present invention. The cushion body of the example had a thickness of 45 mm.
[0018]
The cushion body of the example was cut in a direction in which the thickness of the cell layer could be observed, and cell distribution change was visually determined from the upper surface, which was the upper side during hot pressing, to the inner layer. As a result, a surface layer composed of a laterally expanded cell layer is formed with a thickness of 3.9 mm on the upper surface, which is the upper side during hot pressing, and the lateral expansion is performed on the lower surface, which is the lower side during hot pressing. The cell layer was formed with a thickness of 3.4 mm, and the thickness of the laterally expanded cell layer (3.9 mm + 3.4 mm = 7.3 mm) was 16.2% with respect to the total thickness (45 mm) of the cushion body. . Although the cushion body of the example was left at room temperature for 24 hours after hot pressing, the cushion body of the example has no change in thickness and shape, and the shape is fixed by plastic deformation by hot pressing. Was confirmed.
[0019]
Moreover, with respect to the cushion body of the example, the relationship between load and deflection was measured according to JIS K 6400: 98 (Appendix). For comparison, the cushion body of Comparative Example 1 composed of vertically long cells not subjected to the hot pressing, the cushion body of Comparative Example 2 hot-pressed at a compression rate of 3%, and Comparative Example 3 hot-pressed at a compression rate of 30% The relationship between the load and the deflection of the cushion body was also measured in the same manner as in the example. The measurement results are shown in FIGS.
[0020]
According to the measurement results, in the cushion body of Comparative Example 1 composed of vertically long cells, there is a portion called a shoulder portion S where the load increase during the initial compression is large and the degree of load increase decreases suddenly. It can be seen that it feels hard. On the other hand, it can be seen that in the cushion body of the example, the load increase during the initial compression is moderate, the shoulder portion is not clear, and it is difficult to feel the hardness in the initial compression. Further, in the cushion body of Comparative Example 2 with a compression ratio of 3% during hot pressing, the load increase during the initial compression is large and the shoulder portion S clearly appears as in the cushion body of Comparative Example 1. It can be seen that the hardness of the initial compression is felt. On the other hand, in the cushion body of Comparative Example 3 having a compression rate of 30% during hot pressing, when the deflection rate (compression rate) is 50% or more, the increase in load is greater than in the cushion bodies of other Comparative Examples and Examples. However, the performance as a cushion body changes.
[0021]
【The invention's effect】
As shown and described above, according to the cushion body of the present invention, it is possible to eliminate the feeling of hardness and discomfort during sitting without forming slits or the like that cause a decrease in strength on the surface of the cushion body. In addition to the effect of excellent surface durability.
[0022]
Furthermore, the cushion body of the present invention can be easily obtained by hot pressing a foam having a vertically long cell structure, and the work of laminating and bonding a plurality of foams is not required, so that the cost is low.
