Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an anti-slip mat that is used by being laid on the inner wall of a bathtub.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, in bathtubs (particularly Western-style bathtubs), anti-slip tape is sometimes attached to the bottom wall to prevent slipping. However, such anti-slip tapes have disadvantages in that they are unhygienic and difficult to clean because they cannot be easily removed.

The present invention solves these conventional drawbacks.It can be easily removed to keep the bathtub hygienic, and the bathtub can be easily cleaned.Moreover, it does not cause misalignment when installed. To provide an anti-slip mat which is free from the risk of injury and which also has the effect of being used as a health appliance.

Therefore, the feature of the present invention is that an appropriate number of suction cup recesses are formed on the back surface of the mat main body made of a flexible material, and an appropriate number of air and water release parts are formed around the recesses. removably installed on at least the bottom wall portion and the surrounding wall portion of the inner wall of the bathtub;
Furthermore, a magnet is embedded in the mat main body at an appropriate position.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail based on drawings showing embodiments.

FIG. 1 shows a state in which the anti-slip mat 1 according to the present invention is laid on the inner wall of a Western-style bathtub 2.
By means of an appropriate number of suction cup recesses 5 formed on the back surface 4 of the mat main body 3 made of a flexible material, the bottom wall 6 of the bathtub 2 and one surrounding wall corresponding to the back of the bather are It is removably installed in 7 sections.

To be more specific, the mat main body 3 has a two-layer structure, as shown in FIG. On the back surface 4 of the mat main body 3, that is, on the base material 8 surface, an appropriate number of suction cup recesses 5 are formed in an appropriate arrangement, and around the recesses 5, air and water release portions 10 are formed as shown in FIG. is formed. The air/water release part 10
In the illustrated example, these are vertical and horizontal grooves 1 that surround the respective recesses 5 and whose ends open to the peripheral end surface 11 of the base material 8.
2... and the base material 8 and the top material 9 from the bottom of the groove 12.
It is composed of a plurality of vertical holes 13 passing through the. 14... is a magnet embedded in the mat main body 3 by being fitted into the recess 15... on the back surface of the upper material 9, and is provided at an appropriate position, for example, corresponding to a pressure point on the human body, in a plan view of the mat main body 3. .
Although not shown, the surface 16 of the mat main body 3
It is preferable to have a fine rough texture from the viewpoint of improving the anti-slip effect. In addition, the reference numeral 17 in FIG. 1 is a non-slip mat laid on the floor in front of the bathtub 2, and like the non-slip mat 1 described above, the reverse side has a suction cup recess 5... and an air/water release part 10 ( (not shown) and is said to be removable.
The magnet 14 is not buried.

By pressing the anti-slip mat 1 against the bottom wall 6 and the circumferential wall 7 of the bathtub 2, the mat 1 is firmly fixed by the suction action of the suction cup recesses 5... Positional displacement does not occur even during movement. When the bather is standing in the bathtub 2, the mat 1 on the bottom wall 6 effectively prevents the bather from slipping and falling, and when the bather is sitting in the bathtub 2 as shown in FIG. Both mats 1, 1 prevent slipping, allowing the user to take a bath in a comfortable posture. In addition, while bathing, mats 1, 1
Pressure points on the back and feet are moderately stimulated by the magnetic action of the magnet 14 embedded in the body. When the mat 1 is to be removed, it can be easily removed by simply grasping the end and peeling it off.

As shown in FIG. 5, a linear protrusion 18 having a substantially semicircular shape in side view is formed on the surface 16 of the anti-slip mat 1, so that the mat 1 can be attached to the foot of the inner wall of the bathtub 2 as shown in phantom lines in FIG. If installed on the surrounding wall 19 or the bottom wall 6 of the bathing section, the bather can use the protrusion 18 as a green bamboo step.
It is also preferable to bury ....

Further, in the embodiment, the mat main body 3 has a two-layer structure consisting of a rubber base material 8 and a sponge upper material 9, but it is also free to have a single-layer structure consisting of only the rubber base material 8. In this case, the magnets 14 are of course embedded in the base material 8. Further, the number and position of the suction cup recess 5, the air/water escape part 10, and the magnet 14 are not limited to the illustrated embodiment, and may be freely determined as appropriate. Needless to say, it can be installed in a Japanese-style bathtub in addition to the bathtub 2.

The present invention has effectively achieved its intended purpose with the configuration detailed above. In particular, an appropriate number of suction cup recesses 5 are formed on the back surface 4 of the mat main body 3 made of a flexible material, and an air/water release part 10 is formed around the recesses 5 to prevent the bathtub 2 Since it is removably installed on at least the bottom wall 6 part and the circumferential wall 7 part of the inner wall, the bather can comfortably take a bath without slipping in either the standing or sitting position. The mat 1 can be easily installed or removed, and the bathtub 2 is easy to wash and sanitary, and in the installed state, it is securely fixed and does not shift. Further, since the magnets 14 are embedded in the mat main body 3, the bathers can effectively relieve fatigue by stimulating the pressure points on their backs and feet due to the magnetic action of the magnets 14 while being warmed by the hot water. In this way, it is an excellent device that also has the effect of being a health appliance.
