Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a mat used for automobiles, entrances, etc.

<Prior art> Conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the peripheral body 1 of the mat M
is attached to the outer periphery of the mat body 2 by sewing 3 or overlocked using an extruded product of artificial leather, vinyl chloride, rubber, or other synthetic resin.

<Problems that the invention seeks to solve> However, recent cars tend to have larger interior spaces, and the number of drive wheels has increased from two to four.
It is changing to wheel (4WD). As a result, the unevenness of automobile floors has become significantly larger.

In the above-mentioned conventional technology, when the edge width W2 of the peripheral body 1 is to be widened in response to a car with a large interior volume or uneven floor, or for design reasons, the mat main body 2 is Since the mat main body 2 is inserted deep into the mat, the size of the mat main body 2 becomes large and there is a problem that it becomes expensive.

Therefore, the present invention aims to provide an inexpensive mat for automobiles, etc., in which the size of the mat body is the same as or smaller than the conventional mat body when the edge width of the peripheral body is to be widened. There is.

<Means for solving the problem> The means for solving the problem according to the present invention are as follows:
As shown in Figures 5 and 6, it consists of a mat main body 13 and a peripheral body 14 attached to the outer periphery of the mat main body 13, and the peripheral body 14 is formed in a substantially U-shape in cross section.
A metal shape-retaining material 15 that can be plastically deformed by hand is provided inside the peripheral body 14, and a pair of tips of the peripheral body 14 including the metal shape-retaining material 15 are pressed against both sides of the mat main body 13. By processing, in a mat for an automobile or the like in which the peripheral body 14 is sandwiched between the mat body 13, the peripheral body 1 is brought into contact with the mat body 13 on the inner circumferential surface of the peripheral body 14.
A protrusion 16 is provided to restrict insertion into the protrusion 4, and a contact surface (hereinafter referred to as an inner end surface) 16 of the protrusion 16 is provided.
The position W of a (position from the peripheral body outer surface 14c) is
It is set approximately at the center of the edge width W1 of the peripheral body 14 (at a position 1/4W1 to 3/4W1 from the peripheral body outer surface 14c).

<Operation> In the above problem solving means, the protrusion 16 is provided inside the circumferential body 14, and the position W of the inner end surface 16a of the protrusion is set approximately at the center of the edge width W1 of the circumferential body. The mat main body 13 can be attached to the depth of the mat 14 without being inserted.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
First, FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional perspective view of a main part of a first embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in the figure, the automotive mat of the present invention includes a mat body 13 in which loop pile or cut pile naps 12 are erected on a lower sheet 11 with a large number of protrusions 11a, and a mat body 13 that is sandwiched around the outer periphery of the mat body 13. The peripheral body 14 includes a metal shape retainer 15 having a substantially U-shaped cross section over its entire length, and the periphery of the metal shape retainer 15 is The body 14 is covered with a protrusion 16 installed inside the body 14 . The metal shape retainer 15 is formed so that it can be plastically deformed by hand, and the metal shape retainer 15 is made of aluminum, copper, etc. and has a substantially U-shaped constant cross section.

Also, the position W of the inner end surface 16a of the protrusion 16
(1/4W1 to 3/4W1 from the peripheral body outer surface 14c
) is the edge width W of the peripheral body 14 having a substantially U-shaped cross section.
1 (position from the peripheral body outer surface 14c)
will be installed in The edge width W1 of the peripheral body 14 is the seventh,
The edge width W is wider than the edge width W of the conventional peripheral body 1 shown in FIG. 8, and the peripheral body 14 is made of extruded product of artificial leather, vinyl chloride, rubber, or other synthetic resin.

And a peripheral body 1 including the metal shape retaining material 15
4 is fitted onto the outer periphery of the mat main body 13 so that its tip 14a is attached to the mat main body 1 so as not to be pulled out.
3 is pressed. Note that on the inside of the peripheral body 14, the mat main body 13 is connected to the protrusion 16.
It is inserted so as to hit the inner end surface 16a of the.

Therefore, in the mat M1, even if there are irregularities 18 on the floor 17 of the automobile as shown in FIGS. can be made to follow the unevenness 18 of the floor and maintain that shape.

Further, the edge width W1 of the peripheral body 14 is changed from that of the conventional peripheral body 1.
By making the edge width W2 wider than the edge width W2, the shape retaining material 15 becomes larger.
7 and can maintain its shape.

Further, by providing the projection 16 inside the peripheral body 14 and setting the position W of the inner end surface 16a of the projection at approximately the center of the edge width W1 of the peripheral body, the mat main body 13 can be The mat main body 13 can be attached to the mat body 13 only in size by the gap P between the inner surface 14b of the peripheral body and the outer end surface 16b of the protrusion. Furthermore, by changing the position of the protrusion 16, the gap P between the periphery of the mat main body 13 can be adjusted, and the edge width W1 of the periphery can be increased.

4, 5, and 6 are cross-sectional perspective views of main parts of second, third, and fourth embodiments of the present invention, respectively. These have a structure in which the protruding direction of the protrusion 16 is changed compared to the first embodiment, and the other structures and functions are the same as in the first embodiment.

That is, the second embodiment shown in FIG. 4 has a configuration in which the protrusion 16 projects downward, the third embodiment shown in FIG. 5 has a configuration in which the protrusion 16 projects inward, and the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. An example is a configuration in which the projections 16a and 16b project upward and downward, respectively.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and it goes without saying that many modifications and changes can be made to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention.

<Effects of the invention> As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, a metal shape retainer that can be plastically deformed by hand is provided inside the peripheral body. By simply pressing the pair of tips of the peripheral body against both sides of the mat body, the peripheral body can be clamped to the mat body and maintained in that state.

Furthermore, by providing a protrusion on the inside of the peripheral body and setting the position of the abutment surface of the protrusion at approximately the center of the edge width of the peripheral body, the mat can be attached to the back of the peripheral body without inserting the mat body, and the size of the mat body can be reduced only by the gap between the inner surface of the peripheral body and the outer end surface of the protrusion.

Furthermore, by changing the position of this protrusion, the gap between the mat main body and the peripheral body can be adjusted, and the edge width of the peripheral body can also be increased. At this time, the gap between the mat main body and the peripheral body can be set simply by determining the position of the protrusion from the tip of the peripheral body, so there is an excellent effect that the design can be done without calculations at the design stage.
