Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention is for general household use, which is difficult to get stuffy, has good heat retention and body shape retention, has good sleeping comfort, has excellent durability and bendability, can be washed, and can always maintain cleanliness. The present invention relates to a bed mat most suitable for beds for hospitals and hotels, a mat also suitable for cushioning materials such as bedding, cushions and furniture, and a manufacturing method thereof.

2. Description of the Related Art At present, bed mats for beds use a hard steel wire spring or a foamed material such as styrofoam for a cushion layer, and a wadding layer laminated with resin cotton or hard cotton with adhered urethane foam or inelastic crimped fiber. Integrated,
Also, a cushion body made of only a foamed material such as urethane having the same composition or a resin cotton or a hard cotton to which an inelastic crimped fiber is adhered is used.

However, the one using a hard steel wire spring for the cushion layer is remarkably excellent in supportability, but is inferior in bending property, and the hard steel wire spring is separated and treated at the time of disposal. Complexity is a big problem. The cushion layer or wadding layer or the one using foam-crosslinking type urethane for the cushion body has very good durability as a cushion body, but it has poor moisture permeability and heat storage property, so it easily gets damp and slightly bendable. In addition, since it is not thermoplastic and it is difficult to recycle it and it is incinerated, the incinerator is greatly damaged and the cost of removing toxic gas is high. For this reason, landfilling has become more frequent, but it is difficult to stabilize the ground, and there is a problem that landfilling sites are limited and costs increase. Further, although it has excellent processability, it also has a problem of pollution of chemicals used during manufacturing. In addition, recently, it is necessary to wash the bed mat due to the problem that hospital beds become hot beds such as MRSA, but urethane, which has poor water permeability, has become a social problem because it cannot be washed.

A resin cotton, in which a cushion layer or a wadding layer or a cushion body is formed by adhering polyester fibers with an adhesive,
For example, as an adhesive using a rubber system, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 60-
11352, JP-A-61-141388,
There is JP-A-61-141391. In addition, as one using a crosslinkable urethane, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 61-137732
No. publication. Those using these as a cushion layer or a wadding layer can improve breathability and reduce stuffiness, but are inferior in durability and bendability, and are not thermoplastic or single composition and therefore cannot be recycled. There are also problems such as complexity of processability and pollution of chemicals used during manufacturing. Also, although it can be washed, it has a problem of poor drainage.

Polyester hard cotton for the cushion layer or the wadding layer or the cushion body, for example, JP-A-58-311.
50, JP-A-2-154050, JP-A-3
However, since an amorphous polymer in which the adhesive component of the heat-adhesive fiber used is brittle is used (for example, JP-A-58-136828 and JP-A-3-24).
(Patent No. 9213, etc.) There is a problem that durability is inferior such that the bonded portion is brittle and the bonded portion is easily broken during use, resulting in deterioration of form and elasticity. Furthermore, it is inferior in bendability. Also, although it can be washed, it has a problem of poor drainage. As a method for improving durability, a method of entanglement treatment has been proposed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-245965 and the like, but brittleness of an adhesive portion is not solved and elasticity is largely reduced, and there is a problem that bending property is poor. . In addition, there is complexity during processing. Further, there is a problem that the bonded portion is hard to be deformed and soft cushioning is hard to be imparted. Therefore, a heat-bonded fiber using a polyester elastomer which is soft and recovers even if it is deformed to some extent and uses an inelastic polyester as a core component is disclosed in JP-A-4-240219, and a cushion using the fiber is disclosed. The body is WO-91 / 19032, JP-A-5-155651, JP-A-5-163.
No. 654, etc. The adhesive component used in this fiber structure contains 30 to 50% by weight of polyalkylene glycol as the soft segment of polyester elastomer, and 50 to 80 mol% of terephthalic acid as the acid component of the hard segment. However, similar to the fiber described in JP-B-60-1404 as another acid component composition, isophthalic acid is added to increase the amorphous property, and the melting point becomes 180 ° C. or lower, resulting in low melt viscosity and thermal bonding. The amoebar-shaped adhesive part is formed by improving the part formation, but it is easy to plastically deform, and because the core component is an inelastic polyester, the plastic deformation becomes remarkable especially under heating, and the heat resistance and compression resistance are high. There is a problem that it deteriorates, and it is inferior in bendability and can be washed, but it has a problem that drainability is poor. As a method of further improving the durability, a structure comprising only a polyester polyester elastomer containing isophthalic acid as a sheath component and a heat-bonding conjugate fiber using an inelastic polyester as a core component is disclosed in JP-A-5-163654. Although proposed, the plastic deformation under heating becomes remarkable due to the above-mentioned reason, the heat resistance and compression resistance are lowered, and there is a problem in using it for the cushion body.
Further, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-158094 proposes a method in which a silicone oil is added to a hard cotton base material to lower the coefficient of friction of fibers to improve durability and improve the texture.
However, there is a problem with the adhesiveness of the heat-adhesive fiber and the durability is poor, so it is not preferable for use in a cushion body. On the other hand, as a method of improving the bendability, a method of forming a folding structure is disclosed in JP-A-55-36373 and JP-A-2-142513.
As disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-3894 and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-3894, the bending property is improved, but the durability and the problem at the time of washing are not improved, and there are many problems when used as a cushion body. is there. In addition, a cavity is formed in the bent portion to improve the bendability, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-28.
Although there is a publication such as Japanese Patent No. 5031, the problem of foam such as urethane or the problem of hard cotton cannot be solved at all.

A thermoplastic olefin network used for civil engineering work is disclosed in JP-A-47-44839. As a cushion body using them, Shokai 58
No. 93270 discloses a laminated structure of a hard structure and a soft structure. No. 58-95760 discloses a structure having an air conditioning unit inside a net having a hard structure.
Although Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 05714 describes that a net-like body that is assumed to have a hard structure is used, no consideration is given to heat resistance and durability, comfortableness to sleep, handleability such as weight reduction and washability.
Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 58-109670 proposes a mesh body having irregularities on one side, but unlike a cushion made of thin fibers, the surface is uneven and the touch is bad, and heat resistance durability, sleeping comfort and weight reduction are achieved. No consideration was given to handling such as washing and washing. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 6-327723 discloses a reticulated body having a hole portion into which a cleaning pipe, a ventilation pipe, etc. can be mounted. However, since the material is olefin, the heat resistance and durability are remarkably inferior, and the weight reduction and the washability are achieved. It is not possible to use it as a wadding layer or cushioning material because it is not considered in handling. In addition, Japanese Patent Publication No. 3-1766
Japanese Patent Publication No. 6 also discloses a method in which ejection filaments having different fineness are fused to each other to form a mold, but the mesh structure is not suitable as a cushion material. Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 3-55583 describes a method of thinning only a very surface with a thinning device such as a rotating body before cooling. With this method, the surface cannot be flattened and a thick thin linear layer cannot be formed. Therefore, it does not provide a comfortable cushioning material. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 1-207462 discloses a vinyl chloride floor mat, but it is not preferable as a cushioning material because it has poor compression recovery at room temperature and remarkably poor heat resistance. Note that no consideration is given to the bed mat in the above structure.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 6-269345 discloses a pad for a futon in which a cotton material is sandwiched between sheets and quilted, which covers a bedding member such as a non-woven fabric having a far infrared radiation function. There is a problem that attention is not paid to improvement of sleeping comfort such as a holding function and a stuffiness preventing function, heat resistance and durability, washability such as draining property and drying property, and bending property. Actual Kaihei 6
Japanese Patent No. 48453 discloses a comforter wrapped in a quilted stuffed cotton-filled wrapping cloth made of hard cotton with folds. As a mattress, it has good foldability and heat retention, but it is inferior in breathability, tends to get stuffy, has insufficient body retention, and does not take into consideration washability such as heat resistance and durability, draining and drying. .

It is hard to get stuffy, has good heat retention, shape retention, etc., has good heat resistance and durability, and is easy to use.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an optimal mat for a bed, a mattress, a seat cushion, a furniture cushion that can be recycled if separated, and a manufacturing method thereof.

After forming and looping the loops in contact with each other to form a three-dimensional structure, the loops are sandwiched by a take-up device and cooled in a cooling tank, and then the obtained three-dimensional structure is placed on the upper, lower side or one side. This is a mat manufacturing method characterized by laminating webs with a main matrix of natural fibers, covering the entire surface with lining and sewn, and a thermoplastic elastic resin that constitutes a reticulated body in any process leading to commercialization. This is a method for producing a mat in which the pseudo crystallization treatment by annealing is performed at a temperature of at least 10 ° C. or lower than the melting point of

It is a ternary block copolymer composed of at least one of polyalkylenediol such as glycol, polypropylene glycol, polytetramethylene glycol, glycol made of ethylene oxide-propylene oxide copolymer and the like. . The polyester ester block copolymer is a ternary block copolymer composed of at least one of the above dicarboxylic acids, diol, and polyester diol such as polylactone having an average molecular weight of about 300 to 5,000. . Thermal adhesion, hydrolysis resistance, stretchability,

The terpolymer block copolymer or the terpolymer block copolymer of polylactone as the polyester diol is particularly preferable. In a special case, it is possible to use the one in which a polysiloxane-based soft segment is introduced. In addition, the above elastomer is blended with a non-elastomer component,
Those obtained by copolymerization and those obtained by softening the polyolefin component are also included in the thermoplastic elastic resin of the present invention. As a polyamide elastomer, the hard segment is nylon 6, nylon 66, nylon 610,
Polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, polytetramethylene glycol, ethylene oxide having an average molecular weight of about 300 to 5000 is used as a soft segment for nylon 612, nylon 11, nylon 12, etc. and their copolymerized nylon as a skeleton. -A block copolymer composed of at least one kind of polyalkylenediol such as glycol composed of a propylene oxide copolymer may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds. Furthermore, blends of non-elastomer components and copolymers thereof can be used in the present invention. Examples of the polyurethane elastomer include (A) a polyester and / or a polyester having a hydroxyl group at the terminal with a number average molecular weight of 1000 to 6000 in the presence or absence of a usual solvent (dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, etc.). ) A typical example is a polyurethane elastomer obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate containing an organic diisocyanate as a main component with a prepolymer having isocyanate groups at both ends and (C) extending the chain with a polyamine containing a diamine as a main component. Can be illustrated as (A) Polyester, Polyester

Preferably from 1300 to 5000 polybutylene adipates
Copolyester, polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, polytetramethylene glycol
Polyalkylenediol such as glycol and ethylene oxide-propylene oxide copolymer glycol is preferable, and as the polyisocyanate of (B), a conventionally known polyisocyanate can be used. An isocyanate mainly composed of 4'diisocyanate may be used, and if necessary, a trace amount of conventionally known triisocyanate may be added and used. As the polyamine (C), known diamines such as ethylenediamine and 1.2 propylenediamine are mainly used, and if necessary, trace amounts of triamine and tetraamine may be used in combination. These polyurethane elastomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The melting point of the thermoplastic elastic resin of the present invention is preferably 140 ° C. or higher at which heat resistance and durability can be maintained,
It is more preferable to use a material having a temperature of 160 ° C. or higher because the heat resistance and durability are improved. In addition, since the reticulate body constituting the bed mat of the present invention contains a phosphorus compound for imparting flame retardancy as a preferred embodiment, the thermal stability is slightly inferior to that not containing a flame retardant. It is particularly preferable to add an antioxidant or the like to improve heat resistance and durability. The antioxidant is preferably a hindered phenol-based antioxidant and a hindered amine-based antioxidant, and a nitrogen-free hindered phenol-based antioxidant is 1% to 5%. It is particularly preferable to suppress the thermal decomposition by adding it, because the generation of toxic gas with a small lethal amount at the time of combustion can be suppressed. The elongation recovery measured by the method described below of the thermoplastic elastic resin forming the cushion layer, which is a mat that can have both favorable durability and cushioning property, which is the object of the present invention, is a recovery rate after 300% elongation at room temperature. (Room temperature elongation recovery rate) is 20% or more, and the recovery rate after holding 10% elongation at 70 ° C. for 24 hours (70 ° C. elongation recovery rate) is 30% or more, more preferably room temperature elongation recovery rate. 30% or more,
The 70 ° C extension recovery rate is 40% or more, and most preferably, the room temperature extension recovery rate is 40% or more, and the 70 ° C extension recovery rate is 50% or more. The soft segment content of the thermoplastic elastic resin constituting the component imparting such elongation recovery is preferably 15% by weight or more, more preferably 30% by weight or more, and 80% by weight from the viewpoint of heat and fatigue resistance. The following is preferable, and 70% by weight or less is more preferable. That is, the soft segment content of the component having the function of absorbing vibrations and stress of the elastic network of the present invention is preferably 15% by weight or more and 80% by weight or less, more preferably 30% by weight or more and 70% by weight or less. .

Since it is necessary to impart flame retardancy as a preferred embodiment of the mat of the present invention, the phosphorus content (Bppm) in the thermoplastic elastic resin is the soft segment content (A% by weight).
On the other hand, it is preferable to satisfy the relationship of 60A + 200 ≦ B ≦ 100,000. If not satisfied, flame retardancy may be inferior. If it exceeds 100,000 ppm, the plastic deformation due to the plasticizing effect becomes large and the heat resistance of the thermoplastic elastic resin becomes poor, which is not preferable. A preferable phosphorus content (Bppm) is 30A + with respect to the soft segment content (A weight%).
1800 ≦ B ≦ 100,000, and more preferable phosphorus content (Bppm) is 16A + 2600 ≦ B ≦ 50000 with respect to the soft segment content (A weight%). For flame retardancy, there is a method to add a high level of flame retardancy by adding a large amount of halides and inorganic substances, but when burning, a large amount of toxic halogen gas with a small lethal amount is generated, and the problem of poisoning during a fire Therefore, when incinerated, the damage to the incinerator becomes large, so in the present invention, the preferred halide content is 10 wt% or less, more preferred halide content is 5 wt% or less, and most preferred is halide content. It does not. Examples of the phosphorus-based flame retardant of the present invention include:
In the case of a polyester-based thermoplastic elastic resin, it is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 51-82392 as a flame retardant in the hard segment portion during resin polymerization.
Di (2-hydroxyethoxy) -carbonylpropyl] 9,10, dihydro, 9, oxa, 10 phosphaphenalene, 10 Oxylo and other carboxylic acids are copolymerized as a part of the acid component of the hard segment. A flame-retardant property is imparted by adding a phosphorus-based compound such as tris (2.4-di-t-butylphenyl) fusphite to the thermoplastic elastic resin in a later step or by using a thermoplastic elastic resin. be able to. Other flame retardants capable of imparting flame retardancy include various phosphoric acid esters, phosphorous acid esters, phosphonic acid esters (the above phosphoric acid esters containing a halogen element as necessary), or polymers derived from these phosphorus compounds. It can be illustrated. In the present invention, various modifiers, additives, colorants and the like can be added to the thermoplastic elastic resin as needed. Phosphorus is added to the flame-retardant adhesive component of the cushion layer netting or wadding layer composing the bed mat of the present invention in order to provide flame retardancy. The reason for this is, as described above, from the viewpoint of safety. The goal is to minimize the use of toxic gases, such as cyanogen gas and halogen gas, which are produced in the event of fire and have a low lethal dose. Therefore, the toxicity index of the combustion gas of the reticulate body constituting the mats of the present invention is preferably 6 or less, more preferably 5.5 or less. The combustion gas toxicity index of the wadding layer is preferably 12 or less, more preferably 10 or less, and most preferably 7 or less. Cellulose is most preferable as a natural fiber that can reduce the toxicity index, and when using protein-based fibers such as silk, wool, and feathers, a polyester fiber having a low toxicity index is used as the heat-bonding fiber or the fiber mixed in the matrix. It is desirable to make the fiber mixing ratio as high as possible. Further, it is preferable to use a material having a high polyester fiber mixing ratio also for the side surface. It is preferable that the thermoplastic elastic resins forming the mesh body of the cushion layer are of the same type. For example, when the polyester-based thermoplastic elastic resin is used, the cushion layer can be recycled and recycled without separately separating it.

The component comprising the thermoplastic elastic resin constituting the mat of the present invention preferably has an endothermic peak below the melting point in the melting curve measured by a differential scanning calorimeter. Those having an endothermic peak below the melting point have significantly improved heat resistance and sag resistance than those having no endothermic peak. For example, as a preferable polyester-based thermoplastic resin of the present invention, terephthalic acid or naphthalene 2.6 dicarboxylic acid having rigidity in the acid component of the hard segment is used.
The content of 0 mol% or more, more preferably the content of terephthalic acid or naphthalene 2.6 dicarboxylic acid is 95 mol% or more, and particularly preferably 100 mol% after transesterification of the glycol component up to the required degree of polymerization. Polymerize, then
As the polyalkylene diol, 15 polytetramethylene glycol having an average molecular weight of preferably 500 or more and 5000 or less, particularly preferably 1000 or more and 3000 or less is used.
% To 70% by weight, more preferably 30% by weight
When the amount of copolymerization is 60% by weight or more, if the content of terephthalic acid or naphthalene 2.6 dicarboxylic acid having rigidity in the acid component of the hard segment is large, the crystallinity of the hard segment is improved, Although it is less likely to undergo plastic deformation and the heat resistance and sag resistance are improved, the heat resistance and sag resistance is further improved by performing an annealing treatment at a temperature lower than the melting point by at least 10 ° C. or more after melt heat bonding. If annealing is performed after applying compressive strain, heat resistance and sag resistance are further improved. The endothermic peak is more clearly expressed in the melting curve measured by a differential scanning calorimeter of the reticulated body thus treated at a temperature of room temperature or higher and melting point or lower. If annealing is not performed, no endothermic peak appears in the melting curve above room temperature and below the melting point. By analogy with this, it is considered that the annealing causes rearrangement of the hard segments and formation of pseudo-crystallization-like cross-linking points to improve the heat resistance and sag resistance. (This treatment is defined as pseudo crystallization treatment.) This pseudo crystallization treatment effect is also effective for polyamide elastic resin and polyurethane elastic resin.

The natural fibers in the present invention include cotton, hemp, palm shell fibers, cellulosic fibers such as jute, wool, silk,
It refers to naturally occurring organic fibers such as protein fibers such as feathers. In the present invention, the term "matrix composed mainly of natural fibers" means a system in which at least 50% by weight or more of the matrix fibers are composed of natural fibers. In the present invention, the mixing ratio of the natural fiber in the matrix fiber is 50% or more, preferably 6 in order to sufficiently exhibit the hygroscopicity and water absorption of the natural fiber.
It is 5% or more, and more preferably 100%. Then
In the present invention, in consideration of enabling washing, it is necessary to increase the drying rate by mixing synthetic fibers having a low equilibrium moisture content to increase the drying rate in consideration of the drainage property after washing and the drying rate. The mixing ratio of the low synthetic fibers is preferably at least 15% by weight or more, more preferably 30% by weight or more.
Less than 0% by weight. On the other hand, there is toxicity of combustion gas in safety at the time of fire, and in order to reduce toxicity of combustion gas, cellulosic fiber is preferable, and when protein fiber is used, as described above, synthesis with low toxicity index is performed. It is desirable to mix the resin fibers to reduce the toxicity index. In the present invention,
The toxicity index of the wadding layer is at least 15 or less, preferably 10 or less, more preferably 7 or less. Since the protein fiber also has flame retardancy, the present invention
At least 50% or more of the natural fiber is contained in the wadding layer. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is desirable to use natural fibers to which a desired function is added by various treatments such as flame retardation treatment and shrinkage reduction treatment, as desired.

The synthetic resin in the present invention means a thermoplastic resin. Thermoplastic resins include polyester, polyamide,
Examples include polyolefins. In the present invention, it is preferable to use one having a glass transition temperature of 40 ° C. or higher. For example, for polyester, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate
(PEN), polycyclohexylene dimethylene terephthalate (PCHDT), polycyclohexylene dimethylene naphthalate (PCHDN), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polybutylene naphthalate (PB)
N), polyarylate, etc., and copolyesters thereof can be exemplified. For polyamide, polycaprolactam (NY6), polyhexamethylene adipamide (NY)
66), polyhexamethylene sebacamide (NY6-1)
0) etc. can be illustrated. Examples of the polyolefin include polypropylene (PP) and polybutene-1 (PB-1). As the thermoplastic resin used in the present invention, when polyester is used for the cushion layer and the side material, polyester such as PET, PEN, PBN or PCHDT which can be recycled if separated when discarded and has good heat resistance is used. Particularly preferred. Furthermore, PET, PEN, PB
A flame-retardant polyester (hereinafter abbreviated as flame-retardant polyester) obtained by polycondensation with N, PCHDT or the like to copolymerize a phosphorus-containing ester-forming compound or containing a phosphorus-containing flame retardant is preferable. -82392, JP-A-55-7888, JP-B-55-41610 and the like are exemplified. Although vinyl chloride has self-extinguishing properties, it produces a large amount of toxic gas when burned, and its heat resistance and durability are poor, so it is not preferable to use it in the present invention.

In the basic cushion layer of the mat of the present invention, continuous filaments made of a thermoplastic elastic resin having a fiber diameter of 5 mm or less are bent and brought into contact with each other, and most of the contact portions are fused and integrated. Since the three-dimensional three-dimensional structure is formed and the mesh body is substantially flat on both sides, even when externally applied deformation through the wadding layer, especially when a large deformation stress is locally applied, The flattened mesh surface receives the deformation stress and disperses the deformation stress, and the filaments made of thermoplastic elastic resin form a three-dimensional three-dimensional structure and are fused and integrated, so that the entire structure is deformed. By absorbing the deformation stress by energy conversion and receiving the deformation stress with a low repulsive force due to rubber elasticity, it prevents extreme local depression and supports the body with a soft gripping force against the human body. DOO expresses preferred type holding function possible. The betting mat is also required to have a vibration absorbing function. The cushion layer made of the net-like body of the present invention absorbs and attenuates most of the vibration applied from the outside at the time of bed-in or turning over by the vibration absorbing function of the thermoplastic elastic resin, and also exhibits a preferable vibration absorbing function. When the deformation stress is released, the rubber elasticity of the thermoplastic elastic resin has a function of easily recovering the original shape, and therefore the sag resistance is also good. Furthermore, since the porosity is high and the ventilation hole diameter is extremely large, the ventilation resistance is low and the ventilation is extremely good, and when the deformation stress is changed due to rolling over, etc., the linear line having the rubber elasticity of the thermoplastic elastic resin has a three-dimensional shape. As the structure is formed and fused and integrated, the entire structure is compressed and recovered by deformation, and the air containing steam and heat accumulated in the cushion layer that has permeated through the wadding layer is discharged during compression and recovered. Since the mat has a pump function of replacing with fresh air at the time, heat and steam can be easily transferred between the wadding layer and the cushion layer, and the mat can provide comfortable sleeping that is hard to get damp. For this purpose, the wire diameter of the filament made of thermoplastic elastic resin having good vibration absorption and elastic recovery forming the mesh body of the present invention is 5 mm or less.
When the apparent density is 0.2 g / cm ² or less, if the thickness exceeds 5 mm, the number of components will be small, density unevenness will occur, and a structure with poor durability can be partially formed, and fatigue due to stress concentration will increase and durability will increase. It is not preferable because it decreases. If the wire diameter of the filament made of the thermoplastic elastic resin of the present invention is too small, the anti-compression property becomes too low and the stress absorbability due to deformation decreases, so it is 0.01 mm or more. It is 3 mm or less so as not to impair compactness. More preferably, it is 0.05 mm or more and 2 mm or less. The average diameter of the continuous loop random loops forming the reticulate body of the present invention is preferably 50 mm or less, and particularly preferably 2 to 25 mm in order to achieve the object. When the apparent density of the reticulate body of the present invention is 0.005 g / cm ³ , the repulsive force is lost, the deforming stress absorbing ability and the vibration absorbing ability are insufficient, and the cushioning function may not be easily expressed. If it is more than cm ³ , the repulsive force may be too high and the sitting comfort may be poor. In the present invention, since the entire mat including the mesh is quilted, needle breakage may occur if the apparent density is increased by 0.10 g / cm ³ or more. Therefore, the apparent density of the reticulate body of the present invention is 0.10 g / cm ³ or less for the purpose of improving the handling property by reducing the quilting property and the weight.
It is preferably 0.01 g / cm ³ or more and 0.08 g / cm ³ or less, more preferably 0.08 g / cm ³ or less, in which the function as a cushion body is easily expressed by utilizing the vibration absorbing ability and the deformation stress absorbing function.
It is not less than 02 g / cm ^{3 and not} more than 0.06 g / cm ³ . As a preferred embodiment, a method in which the reticulate body in the present invention has a different fineness laminated structure in which linear shapes having different wire diameters are combined with an apparent density to have an optimum configuration can be selected. The thickness of the mesh body of the present invention is required to be 5 mm or more. If the thickness is less than 5 mm, the stress absorbing function and the stress dispersing function are deteriorated, which is not preferable. If the thickness exceeds 200 mm, quilting becomes difficult, which is not preferable. A preferable thickness is 10 mm or more and 100 mm or less, and more preferably 20 mm or more and 80 mm or less, as a surface function for dispersing force and a function of absorbing vibration and deformation stress can be exhibited and quilting is easy. Single plate with a thickness of 5
When it is more than 00 mm, the bendability described later is deteriorated. If a thicker cushion layer is desired, 2 if desired
The thickness of the veneer is 50 mm between the side layer and the wadding layer quilted on one side of the cushion layer with a thin thickness of 00 mm or less.
It is possible to prevent the bending property from being impaired by stacking a mesh body of 0 mm or less, preferably 200 mm or less in a non-bonded state,
It is also possible to obtain a thick cushion layer mat.
In the case of stacking so as to have a thickness of 500 mm or less, the interface may be joined, and even if it is not joined, since the surface is flat, the transmission of stress is transmitted by the surface, so there is no problem in deformability. If the surface of the mesh is not substantially flattened, the local external force transmitted from the wadding layer via the lateral ground is
Deformation stress cannot be received on the surface, and it is selectively transmitted to the line and adhesive points on the surface, and the function to disperse deformation stress is reduced, so stress concentration may occur. When an external force is applied, fatigue due to stress concentration may occur and the sag resistance may be reduced. When the filaments are made of thermoplastic elastic resin, the entire structure is deformed in the three-dimensional structure portion, so stress concentration is relieved, but the body shape retention function is also deteriorated as the fatigue is advanced. In the case of non-elastic resin, stress concentrates on the bonding point as it is, causing structural destruction and cannot be recovered. Further, it is a cushion layer that cannot be quilted due to significant needle breakage during quilting. Further, if the surface is not substantially flattened and has irregularities, the surface of the side ground is uneven when quilted, and the back and buttocks of a person feel a foreign substance when sleeping, which is not preferable. If the lines are not continuous,
Since the adhesion points of the filaments serve as stress transmission points, remarkable stress concentration occurs at the adhesion points, causing structural destruction and poor heat resistance and durability. There is a problem that the compression resistance is inferior even at the stage where the structure is not destroyed, and the body shape retention property is inferior.If the density is increased to solve this problem, the porosity decreases, the air permeability decreases and the comfort decreases, and the weight also decreases. It becomes heavy and the handling is extremely poor, and quilting becomes difficult. If they are not fused, the shape cannot be maintained and the structure does not deform integrally, resulting in a fatigue phenomenon due to stress concentration and poor durability, and at the same time deforming the shape and making it impossible to maintain the body shape, which is not preferable. . The more preferable degree of fusion bonding of the cushion layer of the present invention is a state in which most of the portions in contact with the filaments are fused, and most preferably all the contact portions are fused. In a net-like body composed of known filaments made only of non-elastic resin, when it receives a large deformation stress that cannot be absorbed by the surface layer, it does not have rubber elasticity and it does not easily deform and shows a large repulsive force. In addition, since it exhibits a strong repulsive force, it gives an unpleasant body-supporting feeling and an unfavorable body-retaining function, and it has almost no pump function by compression recovery, so that the stuffiness reducing function is inferior. Further, due to the compressive deformation, plastic deformation occurs and the recovery is not achieved, and the durability is poor. Furthermore, since quilting cannot be performed, the mat of the wadding layer is inferior in stability. With cross-linkable polyurethane foam, vibration absorption function and sag resistance are good because it is an elastic resin, and quilting is also possible, but due to the structure that stress transmission is easy, it is easy to follow local deformation and extremely local Sinking occurs and the function of maintaining body shape is poor. Further, the foamed polyurethane is a cushioning layer which becomes a mat which is apt to be stuffy and does not provide comfortable sleeping because the air permeability is extremely poor. The mat of the present invention moves sweat and moisture from the skin surface through the wadding layer as quickly as possible, does not give a stuffy feeling, and retains the body shape with proper heat retention and a favorable fit, and permanently provides a comfortable sleep. Therefore, a wadding layer made of a web having a natural fiber as a main matrix and an apparent density of 0.1 g / cm ³ or less is laminated on the front surface side or the back surface side of the cushion layer, and the entire surface is covered with a side cloth made of a knitted fabric. A quilted sewn mat. A wadding layer consisting of a web is laminated on the front surface side or the back surface side of the cushion layer, and the entire surface is covered with quilting, so that the side material and the wading layer are integrated with the cushion layer to form a mat. Since the deformation is sandwiched between the side layer and the cushion layer, the entire mat is deformed, and the deformation of the wadding layer alone does not easily occur, so that the durability of the wadding layer is improved. In addition, since the wadding layer uses natural fibers as the main matrix, the excellent hygroscopicity and water absorption of natural fibers makes it possible for the sweat and water vapor, whose temperature has risen to the body temperature on the skin surface, to wadding from the skin surface through the lateral surface. Since the cushion layer has a pumping function that moves to the layer and then replaces it with fresh air, the heat and moisture transferred to the wadding layer are released to the outside through the cushion layer. It also reduces the temperature on the skin surface and reduces the stuffiness. Thus, when the natural fiber absorbs water or absorbs heat, heat is generated, heat transfer is reduced, and excessive cooling can be prevented. Further, since natural fiber maintains a constant vapor pressure once it absorbs or absorbs water, the moving speeds of heat and moisture are suppressed, and an appropriate vapor pressure can be maintained on the skin surface to maintain the heat retaining effect. The water vapor pressure difference between the wadding layer and the cushion layer becomes remarkable, and the moisture absorbed or absorbed by the natural fibers is efficiently discharged to the cushion layer, so that the water vapor pressure of the wadding layer can be prevented from becoming extremely high. If the apparent density exceeds 0.1 g / cm ³ , the wadding layer has poor air permeability and the movement of water is extremely reduced. Therefore, the apparent density from the movement of water is preferably 0.06 g / cm ³ or less, Preferably 0.04
g / cm ³ or less. Thus, the synergistic effect of the wadding layer and the cushion layer makes it possible to develop a mat function that is resistant to stuffiness and has excellent heat retention. As another function of the wadding layer, the quilting part is fixed, but the quilting part is fixed because the natural fiber is quilted to form a structure in which the lateral layer and the cushion layer are joined and integrated. The fibers have a large degree of freedom with respect to deformation stress, and when the fibers are subjected to local deformation stress, the fibers move, and the stress that is transmitted to the lateral side due to the deformation of the entire structure is absorbed by the cushion layer made of thermoplastic elastic resin. -Because the deformation stress is absorbed by the transformation, the deformation stress can be received by the low repulsive force due to the rubber elasticity, so that the body shape is supported by the soft gripping force against the human body, and the local high compressive stress point in contact with the human body by the synergistic effect Is less likely to be formed, and a wadding function that is less likely to cause congestion can be expressed. This function sends fresh air to the skin surface through the lateral area,
As a further synergistic effect, it also acts effectively on floor rub prevention.
In order to impart such a particularly remarkable effect, it is desirable that the ventilation rate of the air exhausted from the wadding layer to the side surface of the cushion layer through the side ground is 10 cc / cm ² seconds or more. The air permeability of the side covering the mat of the present invention is not particularly limited, but in order to impart the floor rubbing prevention effect, the air permeability of the knitted fabric separating the wadding layer and the cushion layer,
It is preferably 30 cc / cm ² seconds or more. In the side material that constitutes the mat of the present invention, the side surface of the mat is constituted only by the knitted fabric, and by improving the air permeability between the cushion layer and the outside air, the pump function of the cushion layer can be more effectively utilized. preferable. Web of apparent density is too high and high compressive stress apparent density so also decreases stuffiness prevention effect inferior drop and breathability of congestive prevention function due to an increase in the support area of 0.1 g / cm ³ constituting a wadding layer of the present invention You need the following: When the apparent density is too low, the anti-compression property is lowered and the function of the wadding layer is deteriorated. Therefore, the preferable apparent density is 0.01 g / cm ³ or more and 0.06 g / cm ³ or less, more preferably the apparent density is 0.03 g. / Cm ³ or more 0.05
g / cm ³ or less. If the thickness of the wadding layer is less than 2 mm, the function of the wading layer will deteriorate. When the thickness is 30 mm or more, the useful function described above, which has a synergistic effect with the cushion layer, and a proper sinking and a soft gripping force for supporting the body are reduced. A preferred thickness is 3 mm or more and 15 mm or less, more preferably 5 mm or more and 10 mm or less. The natural fiber in the matrix fiber used for the wadding layer of the bed of the present invention is, as described above, dryness at the time of washing, flame retardancy and combustion gas toxicity, as well as heat retention and stuffiness depending on preference. You can change the type and mixing ratio. For example, when a person who is relatively chilly desires warm eyes, the mixture ratio of protein fibers such as wool and cotton (silk) in the matrix fibers is 60.
% Or more is preferable, and 80% or more and 100% is more preferable. In addition, when a soft touch and good heat retention are desired, the mixing ratio of cotton (silk) and feathers in the matrix fiber is preferably 70% or more, more preferably 80% or more and 100%. On the other hand, when a slightly cooler sleeping comfort is desired, it is preferable to increase the mixing ratio of cellulosic fibers such as hemp and cotton in the matrix fiber, and particularly the amount of dust is small, and the mixing ratio of hemp having a large fiber diameter is 80%. It is more preferable to set it as above. Depending on the taste, desired different wadding layers may be laminated on the cushion layer surface to be used properly in summer and winter. Further, other materials may be laminated on the cushion layer and / or the wadding layer as long as the basic function of the present invention is not lost. Further, the fiber mixed with the natural fiber in the matrix fiber is not particularly limited as long as the fiber can be mixed with the natural fiber. The fiber mixed with the natural fiber in the matrix fiber is a fiber containing, for example, an anti-mite agent, an antibacterial agent, a deodorant, a flame retardant, an aromatic agent, etc., in order to add a characteristic not found in the natural fiber of the wadding layer. To improve the function, improve draining and drying properties by utilizing properties such as water repellency, hydrophobicity, etc. It is desirable to mix fibers capable of imparting a function such as doubling. The fineness of the fiber is selected as desired, but the fineness that can be used in ordinary card opening is from 0.5 denier to 100 denier. In special cases, fineness up to 500 denier can be selected. The material is selected as necessary, but usually polyester fiber may be used. The mat of the present invention has better washability than known mats. That is, compared with a cushion layer made of ordinary fibers having a fiber diameter of 0.001 mm or less, the wire diameter of the cushion layer constituting most of the cushion body of the present invention is 0.01.
mm or more, the web of the wadding layer has a large surface weir of the fiber, but since the average number of constituents in the entire cushion body is small, the surface area of the filament is extremely small, so the water content on the filament surface can be reduced, Excellent drainage. Since it has good draining property, the drying time can be shortened. In addition, since the web forming the wadding layer of the present invention is quilted by being sandwiched between the side ground and the cushion layer, even if it is washed by washing, the felt is less likely to be formed due to the unevenness and entanglement of the web. The fineness of the quilting is not particularly limited, but the pitch is preferably 3 cm or more and 15 cm or less, and more preferably 5 cm or more and 10 cm or less. Therefore, the mat of the present invention can be washed frequently and, as a result, a clean mat can always be used. Further, the mat of the present invention is improved in bendability because the cushioning layer is stretched and stretched by the thermoplastic elastic resin and the cushioning layer and the wadding layer made of a web having a high degree of deformation are quilted. That is, the quilted portion functions as a bending point, and the bending property is improved. This function can be used for a bed for care or the like that requires the user to raise the head or upper body. When used as a thin mattress, it can be folded and stored. If the cushion layer is made of non-elastic resin, it is difficult to bend. If the material made of a hard material is bent forcibly, the bent part may be destroyed, and if the material made of a soft material is plastically deformed, the cushion is dented near the bent part, and if repeatedly bent, it breaks due to bending fatigue. Since the wadding layer made of a web having a high degree of freedom against deformation is quilted and joined to the cushion layer of the present invention made of a thermoplastic elastic resin, the wadding layer does not have a surface rigidity function and can be folded and repeatedly. Even when bent, since the mat is sandwiched between the side ground and the cushion layer and the mat is joined and integrated at the quilting point, it is unlikely to be plastically deformed and has excellent durability. is there. In order to improve the foldability of hard cotton, a fold structure has been proposed, but unlike the cushion layer of the present invention, a non-elastic resin is used for the cushion layer, so that the durability is poor. Commercial beds may be sterilized as needed. For sterilization, ethylene oxide gas below 100 ° C or steam at 130 ° C is generally used. In the preferred embodiment of the mat of the present invention, for example, the natural fiber of the wadding layer that has been subjected to a shrinkage-reducing treatment, a shape-retaining treatment or a descaling treatment, is deformed by sterilization in less than 15 minutes without applying compressive stress. It is possible to sterilize without doing, but in the case of using a known olefin-based or vinyl chloride-based material, the present invention is inferior in heat resistance and plastic deformation by heating during sterilization causes bulkiness. It is a different point. In addition, by performing the above-mentioned pseudo crystallization treatment at any stage from the reticulated body forming step to a commercialized product, the components composed of the thermoplastic elastic resin in the reticulated body are measured at room temperature on the melting curve measured by a differential scanning calorimeter. Stretching and heat resistance of the thermoplastic elastic resin are remarkably improved by having an endothermic peak at a temperature equal to or higher than the melting point,
It is more preferable because the heat resistance and durability of the product are remarkably improved.

The cross-sectional shape of the filaments of the net-like body constituting the cushion layer of the present invention is not particularly limited, but a hollow section or a modified cross section can impart preferable anti-compression property (repulsive force) and touch. It is particularly preferable because it is possible. The compression resistance can be adjusted by adjusting the fiber diameter and the modulus of the material used to make the wire diameter thinner, and for soft materials, the hollowness and irregularity can be increased to adjust the gradient of the initial compression stress, and the wire diameter can be made slightly thicker. Or, if the material has a slightly high modulus, the hollowness and the degree of irregularity are lowered to give the good anti-compression property with good sleeping comfort. As another effect of the hollow cross section and irregular cross section, by increasing the hollow ratio and the degree of irregularity, it is possible to reduce the weight even if the same anti-compression property is given, and in the case of replacing the mat for the bed, the duvet, the cushion, etc. Improves the handleability when raising and lowering. As another preferable method for imparting preferable anti-compression property (repulsive force) and touch, there is a method of forming the filament of the reticulated body of the present invention into a composite structure. Examples of the composite structure include a score core structure, a side-by-side structure, and a combination structure thereof. However, in particular, 50% or more of the linear surface is made of a soft thermoplastic elastic resin in order to obtain a three-dimensional structure in which vibration and deformation stress that cannot be energy-converted even if the cushion layer is largely deformed can be energy-converted and recovered. And a side-by-side structure and a combination thereof. In the sheath core structure, the sheath component is a thermoplastic elastic resin with a large content of soft segments that can easily convert energy into vibration and deformation stress, and the core component is a thermoplastic elastic resin with a small content of soft segments that exhibits anti-compression properties. It is made of resin and can give a comfortable touch to contact parts such as the back and buttocks due to an appropriate degree of depression. With the side-by-side structure, the melt viscosity of a thermoplastic elastic resin with a high soft segment content that facilitates energy conversion of vibration and deformation stress is lower than the melt viscosity of a thermoplastic elastic resin with a low soft segment content that exhibits anti-compression properties. A structure in which the proportion of thermoplastic elastic resin occupying a linear surface and having a large amount of soft segment is increased (metaphorically, a structure in which a thermoplastic elastic resin is arranged in an eccentric sheath-core structure) ), The proportion of the thermoplastic elastic resin occupying the linear surface and having a large soft segment content is 80%.
The above-mentioned ones are particularly preferable, and most preferable is a sheath core in which the proportion of the thermoplastic elastic resin occupying the linear surface and having a large soft segment content is 100%. When the proportion of the thermoplastic elastic resin with a large soft segment content that occupies the linear surface is large, the flowability when melting and fusing is high, so there is the effect of strengthening the adhesion, and the structure deforms as a unit. In this case, the fatigue resistance against stress concentration at the bonding points is improved, and the heat resistance and durability are further improved. The mat of the present invention has a cushion layer on one side of which a web having a main matrix of natural fibers is laminated, and on the other side of which hard cotton, synthetic fiber web, non-woven fabric, knitting, cloths, etc. are installed, and a side fabric made of knitted fabric is formed. It can also be integrated by covering with quilting. The mat of the present invention is particularly useful for commercial seats such as ships' seats, vehicles, ships, hospitals, and hospital beds, futons, cushions, furniture mats, etc., but also seats for vehicles, chairs for furniture, It is also useful as a cushion for office chairs.

Next, the manufacturing method of the present invention will be described. A three-dimensional structure in which a thermoplastic elastic resin is discharged downward from the nozzle at a melting temperature 20 ° C. to 80 ° C. higher than its melting point from a multi-row nozzle having a plurality of orifices, and is brought into contact with each other in a molten state to be fused. Forming a mat, and sandwiching it with a take-up device and cooling in a cooling tank, then laminating a web with a matrix of natural fibers on both sides or one side, and covering the entire surface with a side fabric made of knitted fabric. That is, it is a method for producing a mat in which a pseudo crystallization treatment is performed by annealing at a temperature of at least 10 ° C. or lower than the melting point of the thermoplastic elastic resin forming the reticulate body in any step leading to commercialization. The reticulate body is obtained by melting a thermoplastic elastic resin by using a general melt extruder, supplying the multi-row nozzle having a plurality of orifices, and discharging the resin downward from the orifices. The melting temperature at this time is 20 ° C. to 80 ° C. higher than the melting point of the thermoplastic elastic resin. If the melting temperature is higher than 80 ° C. higher than the melting point of the thermoplastic elastic resin, thermal decomposition becomes remarkable and the rubber elastic properties of the thermoplastic elastic resin deteriorate, which is not preferable.
On the other hand, unless the temperature is higher than the melting point of the thermoplastic elastic resin by 10 ° C. or more, melt fracture occurs and normal filament formation cannot be performed. Further, when the filament is formed by looping after discharge and is brought into contact and fused. The temperature may be lowered and the filaments may not be fused to each other, resulting in a network having insufficient adhesion, which is not preferable. The preferred melting temperature is 20 ° C to 60 ° C above the melting point, more preferably 25 ° C to 40 ° C above the melting point. The shape of the orifice is not particularly limited, but a hollow cross section (for example, a hollow shape having a triangular shape, a round shape, a hollow shape with a protrusion, etc.) and / or an irregular cross section (for example, a triangular shape,
In addition to the above effects, the three-dimensional structure formed by the discharge filaments in the molten state is less likely to flow relaxation, and conversely at the contact point Is particularly preferable because the adhesion point can be strengthened by keeping the fluidizing time of (1) for a long time. When heating for adhesion as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1-2075, the three-dimensional structure is easily relaxed, a planar structure is formed, and a three-dimensional three-dimensional structure becomes difficult, which is not preferable. As an effect of improving the properties of the reticulate body, the apparent bulk can be increased, the weight can be reduced, the anti-compression property can be improved, and the elasticity can be improved, which is difficult to obtain. In the hollow cross section, if the hollow ratio exceeds 80%, the cross section tends to be crushed. Therefore, it is preferably 10% or more and 70% or less, more preferably 20% or more and 60% or less, which can exhibit the effect of weight reduction. The pitch between the holes of the orifice needs to be a pitch with which the loop formed by the line can sufficiently contact. The pitch between holes is shortened for a dense structure, and the pitch between holes is lengthened for a coarse structure. The pitch between the holes of the present invention is preferably 3 mm to 20 mm, more preferably 5 mm to 10 mm. In the present invention, different densities and different fineness can be obtained as desired. The different density layer can be formed by a configuration in which the pitch between rows or the pitch between holes is also changed, or a method in which the pitch between both rows and holes is also changed. Also, if the pressure loss difference at the time of discharge is given by changing the cross-sectional area of the orifice, the principle that the discharged amount of molten thermoplastic elastic resin extruded from the same nozzle at a constant pressure becomes smaller for the orifice with larger pressure loss, is used. It is possible to manufacture a reticulated structure composed of filaments of different fineness by using a nozzle having at least a plurality of rows having different cross-sectional areas of orifices in a section in the longitudinal direction.
Then, it is discharged downward from the nozzle, and while forming a loop, they are brought into contact with each other in a molten state and fused to form a three-dimensional structure, sandwiched by a take-up net, and a molten state of the surface of the reticulate body. Bending the twisted discharge line of 45 degrees or more to deform it to flatten the surface and at the same time to form a structure by adhering the contact points with the discharge line that is not bent, and then continuously forming a cooling medium (usually at room temperature). It is preferable to use the water of (1) because the cooling rate can be increased and the cost can be reduced). The distance between the nozzle surface and the take-off point is preferably at least 40 cm or less to prevent the discharge filament from being cooled and the contact portion not being fused. 10 cm to 40 cm is preferable when the discharge amount of the discharge line is 5 g / min or more, and 5 when the discharge amount of the discharge line is less than 5 g / min.
cm to 20 cm is preferred. The thickness of the net-like body is determined by the opening width (interval between the take-up nets) of the take-up net sandwiching both surfaces of the three-dimensional structure in the molten state. In the present invention, the opening width of the take-up net is set to 5 mm or more for the above reason. Next, it is drained and dried, but if a surfactant or the like is added to the cooling medium, draining and drying may be difficult, or the thermoplastic elastic resin may swell, which is not preferable. Incidentally, the distance between the nozzle surface and the take-up conveyor installed on the cooling medium for solidifying the resin, the melt viscosity of the resin (the melt viscosity at the time of forming the mesh body is preferably 500 poises to 10000 poises,
If it exceeds 20000 poise, the loop forming speed becomes slow and it becomes difficult to form a dense network structure, which is not preferable. ), The desired loop diameter and wire diameter can be determined by the hole diameter of the orifice and the discharge amount. A pair of take-up conveyors with adjustable intervals installed on the cooling medium sandwich and hold the molten discharge filaments to fuse the parts that are in contact with each other and continuously draw in the cooling medium to solidify them. By adjusting the distance between the conveyors when forming the body, the thickness can be adjusted while the fused net-like body is in a molten state, and a desired thickness can be obtained. If the conveyor speed is too high, the formation of contact points may be insufficient, or the contact point may be cooled until the fusion point is sufficiently formed, resulting in insufficient fusion of the contact portion. Further, if the speed is too slow, the melt will stay too much and the density will increase, so it is necessary to set the conveyor speed suitable for the desired apparent density. Then, in the present invention, after the reticulate body is once cooled, continuously, or
Pseudo-crystallization treatment is performed discontinuously and cut into a predetermined size, or pseudo-crystallization treatment is performed after cutting. On the other hand, matrix fibers (synthetic fibers) made of synthetic resin other than natural fibers mixed in the matrix of the wadding layer may be staples obtained by a known method, but it is preferable to use a thermoplastic inelastic resin in an asymmetric cooling method or a composite method. It is preferred that the latent crimping ability is imparted by the spinning method, and the three-dimensional crimps are developed by the heat treatment after stretching to be cut, or the three-dimensional crimps are developed by the heat treatment after cutting. Since the synthetic fibers are required to have sag resistance and heat resistance, the initial tensile resistance is at least 35 g.
/ Denier or more and the initial tensile resistance at 70 ° C. is at least 10 g / denier or more. The crimp degree of the three-dimensional crimp due to its bulkiness and anti-compression property is 15% or more,
The number of crimps is preferably 10 to 25 / inch. The synthetic fiber thus obtained is mixed with the natural fiber, which is the main matrix of the wadding layer, in a desired blending amount and opened. Opening web having a three-dimensional structure obtained by pre-opening and mixing with an opener or the like with a mixing ratio of natural fibers and synthetic fibers being 100/0 to 50/50 by weight and then opening with a card or the like. To form
When the thickness is changed from 3mm to 10mm, the apparent density is 0.1g
/ Cm ³ or less, preferably an apparent density of 0.01 g / cm
³ to 0.06 g / cm ³ of laminated web as a wadding layer is laminated on the front surface and / or the back surface of the reticulate body, and then the whole surface is covered with a knitted fabric as a side material, and the apparent density is The mat of the present invention is obtained by quilting sewing while compressing so that the apparent density is 0.1 g / cm ³ or less, preferably 0.01 g / cm ³ to 0.06 g / cm ³ . The mat of the present invention is preferably configured so that only the knitted fabric is installed on the side surface of the mat, whereby the ventilation function of the side surface can be enhanced and the pump function of the cushion layer for replacing fresh outside air can be further enhanced. The side ground may be formed by first sewing a mat into a predetermined shape, covering the cushion body in which a cushion layer and a wadding layer are laminated, binding the insertion opening, and then performing quilting. Quilting can be quilted with a normal sewing machine up to a cushion thickness of 7 to 8 cm, but if the thickness is 10 cm or more even if you press and quilt, a sewing machine that can take a stroke of 10 cm or more and a sewing needle of 12 cm or more is special. You need to use things to quilt. The quilting pitch is set as desired. Usually, quilt so that the cloth is crossed at intervals of 5 cm or more and less than 20 cm. The side material on the side surface may be pipe-sewn by covering the corner portion with another cloth.
The crystallization treatment in the present invention is performed at a temperature lower than at least the melting point (Tm) of the thermoplastic elastic resin by 10 ° C. or more and an Tan dispersion α dispersion rising temperature (Tαcr) or higher in any step leading to commercialization. By this treatment, the heat-resistant sag resistance is remarkably improved as compared with the one having no endothermic peak (having no endothermic peak) having an endothermic peak below the melting point. The preferred pseudo-crystallization treatment temperature of the present invention is (Tαcr
+ 10 ° C) to (Tm-20 ° C). If it is pseudo-crystallized by simple heat treatment, heat resistance and sag resistance are improved.
However, it is more preferable to impart compressive deformation of 10% or more and anneal to significantly improve the heat resistance and sag resistance. Further, when the reticulate body is once cooled and then subjected to a drying step, the pseudo crystallization treatment can be simultaneously performed by setting the drying temperature to the annealing temperature. Also, a pseudo crystallization treatment can be separately performed in the process of commercialization.

In the mat of the present invention, in addition to a bed, a mattress, a cushion, a furniture mat, etc., only the cushion body or the cushion layer can be used by utilizing its function.
For example, it can be used for vehicle seats, boat seats, chairs, furniture, etc. simply by molding it into a shape suitable for the purpose of use by using a molding die or the like to the extent that the three-dimensional structure is not impaired, and covering the side ground. Of course, it is also possible to use it in combination with another material that should meet the required performance in relation to the application, for example, a different mesh body, a hard cotton cushion material composed of a short fiber aggregate, a non-woven fabric, or the like. In addition, other than the resin manufacturing process, the molded product is processed from the manufacturing process to the extent that performance is not deteriorated, and at any stage of commercialization, it becomes flame retardant, insecticidal, antibacterial, heat resistant, water / oil repellent, colored, aromatic, etc. It is possible to perform the processing such as the addition of chemicals to add the function.
