Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention is a sponge bundle, in particular, a sponge bundle mainly made of foam and a synthetic resin fiber having an irregular cross section. This invention relates to a sponge bundle constructed by combining a nonwoven fabric protruding from the surface of the sponge bundle.

The purpose of this invention is to use a sponge body to exhibit an excellent water retention effect, and to increase the adhesiveness between the sponge body and the nonwoven fabric to provide excellent strength and durability. The purpose is to provide the resulting sponge bundles.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a sponge bundler that can prevent delamination of the nonwoven fabric during use by integrally quilting synthetic resin fibers with the nonwoven fabric.

Furthermore, another object of the present invention is to provide a sponge bundler which is extremely effective in wiping away dirt by using synthetic resin fibers having an irregular cross section as the synthetic resin fibers used for quilting. .

2. Description of the Related Art A sponge bundler is known in which a nonwoven fabric having a large number of protruding protrusions formed on the surface is integrally adhered to one or both sides of a bundler body.

The above-mentioned known sponge bundlers are recognized to have the effect of wiping away dirt due to the raised portions of the non-woven fabric, but the adhesiveness between the non-woven fabric used and the bundler itself is weak, making it difficult to use them for long periods of time. It has been pointed out that the nonwoven fabric may peel off from the bundler body or delamination may occur within the nonwoven fabric, resulting in a lack of strength and durability, and the inherent cleaning effect of the nonwoven fabric is also diminished. was.

The present invention is an attempt to eliminate the various drawbacks mentioned above, and has been able to achieve its purpose by completing the invention described below.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a bundle main body made of urethane foam or other foam, and a nonwoven fabric 2 is integrally adhered to one or both sides of the bundle main body.

Reference numeral 3 denotes synthetic resin fibers quilted onto the nonwoven fabric 2, some of which are made to protrude from the surface of the nonwoven fabric 2 to form a large number of loops 31...31.

The synthetic resin fibers 3 used for quilting the nonwoven fabric 2 are synthetic resin fibers having appropriate hardness and irregular cross-sectional shapes such as triangular, quadrangular, hexagonal, star-shaped, etc. (See Figure 3) The sponge bundler of the present invention can be used as it is after being cut into a rectangular plate shape as shown in Figure 1, or it can be used as is as shown in Figure 2. It can also be attached to the tip of 4 to make a bundle with a handle.

The effects of the present invention configured as described above are as follows.

(1) In the case of bundles made entirely of foam such as sponge, they had excellent water retention performance but poor shape retention.

In contrast, the present invention has a structure in which the nonwoven fabric 2 is integrally attached to one or both sides of the bundle main body 1 made of a foam such as urethane foam, so that it is possible to maintain both water retention and shape retention. We were able to demonstrate sufficient effects and obtain an optimal structure as a bundler.

(2) Since the nonwoven fabric 2 attached to the bundler body 1 is entirely quilted with synthetic resin fibers 3 having an irregular cross section, its strength is further increased, and the interlayers that occur in conventional nonwoven fabrics are eliminated. We were able to completely eliminate problems such as peeling.

(3) The synthetic resin fibers 3 having irregular cross sections quilted on the non-woven fabric 2 have a part protruding from the surface of the non-woven fabric 2 to form a large number of loops 31...31, so when used as a bundler, Loop 31...The friction force of the 31 part is increased,
The wiping effect can be effectively exhibited.

(4) Because the synthetic resin fiber loops 31...31 protruding from the surface of the nonwoven fabric 2 are composed of synthetic resin fibers 3 having irregular cross sections such as triangular, quadrangular, hexagonal, and star-shaped. , loop 31
It is strong and is unlikely to fall over during use, which has the advantage that it can effectively exert its wiping force no matter which direction the bundler is moved during use.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] The bundle is made by integrally pasting a nonwoven fabric 2 on one or both sides of a bundle main body 1 made of a foam such as urethane foam, and the nonwoven fabric 2 has an irregular shape such as a triangle, square, hexagon, or star shape. A sponge bundle that is quilted with synthetic resin fibers 3 having a cross section, and a part of the quilted synthetic resin fibers 3 is made to protrude from the surface of the nonwoven fabric 2 so as to form a large number of loops 31. .
