Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent spoiling of the surface of a soft block from being generated permit the easy removal of dirt when the surface is spoiled, further, correspond easily to the deformation of a foamed body by a method wherein the surface of the foamed body of plastics is covered by a film having an elasticity. CONSTITUTION:A soft block 1 for game is constituted of a foamed body 3 of EVA and a film 3, applied on the surface of the foamed body 2 to cover it and provided with the tensile strength of about 120kgf/cm<2> and the elongation of about 200%. The film 3 is formed by applying coating agent, whose principal material is acrylic resin. As a result, the surface becomes hard to be contaminated and the film 3 is adhered well to the foamed body 2 whereby the film 3 will never be cracked or peeled. The constitution of the coating agent is 20 parts of toluene, 22 parts of xylene, 8 parts of butyl acetate, 38 parts of copolymer of methacrylic alkyl ester and methacrylic hydroxy alkyl ester and 12 parts of HMDI isocyanate.

2. Description of the Related Art Up to now, there has been known a soft block for play, which is mainly used by an infant or the like to ride or stack. As a material for such soft blocks,
Foamed polyethylene and foamed EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) are known. By the way, in the production of such a soft block, it is general to slice a foamed raw fabric and to bond the sliced raw fabric.

However, the surface of the soft block manufactured by such a method is not smooth and has fine irregularities. For this reason, there is a problem that the soft block surface is easily soiled during play and that stains once deposited are difficult to remove.

Therefore, as a means for solving this problem, it is conceivable to coat the surface with paint or the like. However, although this method is the simplest method, it cannot follow the deformation of the block because the coating film becomes hard with ordinary paint.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and by providing an elastic coating on the surface of a plastic foam, the surface is less likely to be soiled, and even if soiled, it can be easily soiled. It is an object of the present invention to provide a soft block that can be formed and can follow the deformation of the foam.

In the present invention, the coating preferably has a tensile strength of 60 to 180 Kgf / cm 2 and an elongation of about 200%. The reason for this is that the tensile strength is 60 kg.
Below f / cm 2 , when the soft block is pressed,
This is because the coating film is likely to break and a durability problem occurs. Also, if the tensile strength exceeds 180 kgf / cm 2 , the coating becomes hard and a good feel cannot be obtained. Further, the reason why the elongation is set to about 200% is that it can be sufficiently followed in consideration of the deformation amount when the block is pressed.

In the present invention, examples of the coating film include those obtained by coating the surface of the foam with a coating material containing urethane paint, vinyl chloride resin, and acrylic resin as a main raw material. (Note that
A coating agent containing vinyl chloride or urethane as a main raw material cannot follow the deformation of the foam, and the coating film is cracked or peeled off, which is not preferable. )
