Description

Detailed Description of the Invention [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a metal oxide having binding properties, far-infrared radiation, and antistatic properties, a resin-based polymer having binding properties, and an antistatic property.
A bed that has deodorizing, anti-bactericidal, far-infrared radiation, and antistatic properties and is made by coating a pine tress with a ceramic coating agent consisting of an inorganic filler that has bactericidal, gas-absorbing, and gas-decomposing properties. Regarding pine tress for health promotion.

[Conventional technology] A conventional pine tress for a bed consists of a number of coil springs tied together using thin iron wire springs, and the outside of the pine tress is stuffed with hair, coconut hair, hairlock cotton, kapok, foam rubber, urethane foam, etc. A connected spring pine tress, a foam rubber, urethane foam, etc. placed on a bottom spring, or a foam pine tress are used.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Conventional pinerests in beds elastically hold the body, provide cushioning for sleeping, and maintain heat retention for the body while sleeping. They only have functions suited to their intended purpose, and, for example, they have not been able to provide pine tress with deodorizing properties, antibacterial properties, far-infrared radiation, and antistatic properties.

For example, with regard to deodorizing and antibacterial properties, in hot and humid environments such as summer, the inside of the bedding during sleeping becomes hot and humid, and pine mattresses in particular produce unpleasant odors due to the sweating effect from the body. Along with this, mold and various other germs grow, which not only makes the body stuffy and uncomfortable, but also absorbs moisture and loses its elasticity, contributing to the growth of mold and the like.

Particularly during the rainy season, the pine tresses could not be dried in the sunlight, which not only caused damage but also had a negative impact on the body.

In addition, in cases such as elderly people who have fallen asleep, it is difficult to replace the pine tress frequently, and the odor emitted from the pine tress is so severe that it is intolerable not only to the caregiver but also to the person himself/herself. Met.

Furthermore, since the pinerest is used every day, the odor remains attached to the pinetress and accumulates as the day passes, making the user feel more uncomfortable each time he or she goes to sleep.

For this reason, even if the pine tress is used for a long period of time, it does not generate any strange odor, and it has excellent deodorizing and antibacterial properties that allow it to be used comfortably without breeding of various bacteria and mites. At the same time, there has been a strong desire for the development of a health-promoting pinerest for beds with excellent far-infrared radiation and antistatic properties.

[Summary of the Invention] The present invention was made in response to the above-mentioned needs, and includes metal oxides having binding properties, far-infrared radiation, and antistatic properties, resin-based polymers having binding properties, and anti-bactericidal properties. The pine tress is coated with a ceramic coating agent consisting of an inorganic filler that has gas adsorption and gas decomposition properties, and promotes health in a bed with excellent deodorizing, antibacterial, far-infrared radiation, and antistatic properties. The purpose is to obtain pine tress for use.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention employs the following means to solve the above problems.

The functions of each component are as follows: silicon dioxide has the function of a binder and the function of far-infrared radiation.

Aluminum oxide acts as a binder and as an antistatic agent.

In addition to acting as a binder, titanium oxide also acts to prevent deterioration of deodorizing power and promote product durability.

Modified polypropylene acts as a binder.

Metal ions such as copper ions or silver ions have an antibacterial (sterilizing) effect and a gas (odor) decomposing effect.

This metal ion may be either a copper ion or a silver ion.

Zeolite has a gas adsorption effect.

The coating agent 3 of the present invention having the above-mentioned components and functions is formed into a liquid form as a one-component ink that hardens at room temperature by using a solvent such as alcohol on the powder form,
The pine tress 1 of the present invention is formed by coating the entire surface 2 of the pine tress 1 made of material such as hair, coconut hair, hairlock cotton, kapok, foam rubber, urethane foam, etc.

This is shown in FIG. 9, and is the pine tress 1 of the present invention.

Coating methods for the coating agent 3 of the present invention include spray, dip, roll, curtain flow, etc.
In the case of pine tress 1, rolling, dipping, spraying, etc. are suitable.

In addition, the appropriate amount of coating agent 3 to be used is 12 to 40 g per unit, but in the case of Pine Torres 1, it is usually 20 g/per unit.
rr (is sufficient to obtain the desired effect.

The pine tress 1 of the present invention is mounted on a bottom spring using a connected spring pine tress filled with hair, palm hair, hairlock cotton, kapok, foam rubber, urethane foam, etc. or foam rubber, urethane foam, etc. It can be applied appropriately to foam pine tresses and the like.

Since the coating agent 3 constituting the present invention contains silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, titanium oxide, and modified polypropylene that function as binders, its bonding and adhesive properties are strong, and it strongly adheres to the pine tress 1. , can be coated, and there is no risk of peeling during use.

In particular, due to the action of titanium oxide, it has excellent washability, and not only does it not peel off, but the coating agent 3 lasts for a long time without losing its various effects.

Next, to explain the antibacterial properties of the coating agent 3 constituting the pine tress 1 of the present invention, the metal ions consisting of copper ions or silver ions contained in the coating agent 3 constantly release a trace amount of ozone (03). It also has trace metal effects that occur over a long period of time, has a large antibacterial (killing) effect against all kinds of pathogens, and is effective for a long period of time.

That is, due to the catalytic action of metal ions consisting of copper ions or silver ions, some oxygen is converted into active oxygen, exhibiting antibacterial properties against microorganisms, and is effective against microorganisms such as common pathogens, bacteria, molds, and algae. Effective against mites, lice, etc.

Therefore, by using the mattress 1 of the present invention for beds in general homes, hospitals, hotels, etc., clean beds with excellent antibacterial properties can be obtained.

Furthermore, if a coating film containing metal ions is formed on a pine tress 1 using the coating agent 3 of the present invention, which has a strong adhesive force and a smaller covering power than a resin, it is possible to obtain a pine tress that constantly has bactericidal properties over a long period of time. It is possible.

[Experimental Example 1] The resistance of the ceramic coating agent 3 constituting the present invention (
The bactericidal activity test results are shown below.

The number of bacteria is measured after culturing at 37°C for 24 hours using a standard agar medium.

(3) Results Table 1 Next, the gas adsorption effect of the pine tress 1 of the present invention will be explained.
When coated on the pine tree 1, the porous surface of the coating formed by the zeolite constituting the coating agent 3 adsorbs gas (odor), and ozone generated from metal ions consisting of copper ions or silver ions absorbs this gas. Disassemble immediately.

That is, this deodorizing effect is achieved by decomposing odor adsorbed on the active surface of the coating film by active oxygen.

As described above, the ceramic coating agent 3 constituting the present invention adsorbs all kinds of odors and decomposes them with metal ions consisting of copper ions or silver ions, so its gas (odor) decomposition ability deteriorates over a long period of time. There's nothing to do.

In particular, due to the action of titanium oxide, the deodorizing power can be maintained for a long time without deteriorating.

Therefore, by using the mattress 1 of the present invention in various beds, desired deodorizing and deodorizing effects can be easily obtained.

Next, the effect of far-infrared radiation according to the present invention will be explained below.

Far-infrared is an electromagnetic wave with a wavelength of 4 to 1,000 microns.
It has the property of reaching the target directly without being influenced by the mind. Furthermore, most organic materials such as human skin have a high absorption rate (and emissivity) of far-infrared rays, and also have high thermal conductivity, so when far-infrared rays are received, thermal energy reaches deep into the body.

Due to the action of silicon dioxide contained in the ceramic coating agent 3 constituting the present invention, as shown in FIG.
Shows an emissivity of 0.9 or more in the effective wavelength range of microns,
It is an ideal far-infrared radiator.

Therefore, the pinerest 1 of the present invention can improve the heat retention effect to prevent the body from getting cold. At the same time, it can also improve hygroscopicity and breathability.

To explain the antistatic effect of the pine tress 1 of the present invention, the ultrafine particulate aluminum oxide contained in the ceramic coating 3 constituting the present invention has a strong property of being charged at noon, and the pine tress 1 is negatively charged. This is the opposite of the electrostatic charge in No. 1, and the generation of electrostatic charges can be prevented.

Therefore, it can be used extremely conveniently when used as a pinerest for various beds.

In addition to the above effects, ultrafine aluminum oxide particles have a strong property of being charged at noon, in contrast to other solid components contained in the ceramic coating agent 3 of the present invention.
In the solution of the composition, it forms stable aggregates with solid components and has the effect of stabilizing the composition for a long period of time.

In addition, the pine tress 1 of the present invention retains the feel of a conventional pine tress, has no loss of breathability, and shows almost no change in washability compared to an untreated pine tress.

[Effects of the Invention] By being configured as described above, the present invention can achieve the effects described below.

That is, the pinerest of the present invention is capable of immediately deodorizing even if the inside of the pinerest becomes hot and humid during sleep in a hot and humid environment, and a foreign odor is generated due to sweating from the body or the like.

Furthermore, since the present invention has excellent antibacterial properties, molds, mites, lice, and other various microorganisms and germs do not propagate within the pine tress, allowing it to be used cleanly and comfortably.

Furthermore, since the present invention is an ideal far-infrared radiator, it can increase the heat retention effect to prevent cold in various parts of the body, and can be conveniently used especially in winter.

At the same time, it has excellent moisture absorption and breathability, making it ideal for use as a pinerest for beds.

For this reason, the pinerest in the bed of the present invention does not generate any strange odor and does not allow the growth of various germs, even when a person is bedridden or used for a long period of time due to illness. This is a health-promoting bed mattress that can be comfortably worn and has excellent deodorizing, antibacterial, and far-infrared radiation properties.
