Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a safe tatami that is not only manufactured at low cost into a light one but also resists both deformation due to drying and softening with heat and moisture and the like by placing a tatami surface on the upper surface of a tatami floor formed by the setting together of unwoven pieces of cloth with a synthetic resin. SOLUTION: A tatami floor 1, when used as a placed tatami A, is obtained by unweaving waste old pieces of cloth, and setting them together with a polyethylene resin using spraying means, etc. A cushion plate 2 imparting appropriate elasticity to the placed tatami is made from urethane resin foam or the like and is secured to the upper surface of the tatami floor 1 with an adhesive. A tatami surface made of rushed or a tatami surface using a polypropylene mat is sewn to the cushion plate 2 and the tatami floor 1 to cover the outsides of the tatami surface 3, the cushion plate 2, and the tatami floor 1 from the edge of the tatami surface 3 and is folded back to the edge of the back of the tatami floor 1, and a tatami edge 4 is sewn to the tatami surface 3, the cushion plate 2, and the tatami floor 1. Further, an antislip sheet 5 is bonded to the entire exposed back surface of the tatami floor 1.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of a tatami mat, particularly a tatami mat detachably laid on a flooring of a Western-style room.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In addition to tatami mats laid in a Japanese-style room, tatami mats are sometimes laid on a flooring of a Western-style room, such as a parquet, a tile or a sheet, in order to give a Japanese feeling.
This tatami mat has a rectangular length and a half-length half or half-length square, but since it is detachably laid on a flooring, it is generally thinner to make it easier to handle. And lighter. In order to reduce the cost and reduce the weight, an insulation board in which sawdust is hardened with a synthetic resin such as polypropylene is used for a tatami floor instead of straw. A non-slip sheet is attached to an exposed portion on the back surface of the tatami floor so that the tatami mat does not move.

[0003] By the way, the tatami mat and the tatami mat using the insulation board depend on the storage condition, but the insulation board is easily deformed by drying. Especially in the case of tatami mats, when the insulation board is deformed,
Since the tatami mats are warped, the area where the non-slip sheet comes into contact with the flooring is small, and there is a disadvantage that the tatami mats are easily moved.

[0004] Also, since the insulation board is softened by heat or moisture, if you inadvertently step on a place where hot tea or the like is spilled on the tatami mat, a non-slip sheet hammered in from the tatami mat edge or the back of the tatami mat surface. There was a danger of sticking staples sticking to the foot.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a safe tatami mat which is not only light and can be manufactured at low cost, but also is free from deformation due to drying and softening due to heat, moisture and the like. It is in.

[0006]

The present invention is characterized in that a tatami mat is provided on the upper surface of a tatami floor formed by solidifying loose pieces of cloth with a synthetic resin.

When the tatami mat is used as a tatami mat, a non-slip sheet is fixed to an exposed portion of the back surface of the tatami floor with an adhesive.

[0008]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A case of using as a tatami mat A will be described. 1 is a tatami floor, which is used for removing old waste pieces of cloth instead of a conventional insulation board.
This is obtained by hardening polyethylene resin by means such as spraying. The tatami floor 1 is not deformed by heat or moisture such as hot tea, is lighter than an insulation board, and has a moderate elasticity. Tatami floor thickness is 10-15m
m.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a cushion plate having a thickness of about 3 mm, which is made of foam synthetic resin such as urethane foam resin.
It is fixed to the upper surface of the tatami floor 1 with an adhesive. The cushion plate 2 gives the tatami mats an appropriate elasticity so as to approximate the feel of a straw tatami floor.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a tatami mat, which is sewn to the cushion plate 2 and the tatami mat floor 1 using a tatami mat made of rush or a polypropylene mat.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a tatami mat, which covers the outer periphery of the tatami mat 3, the cushion plate 2, and the tatami mat 1 from the periphery of the tatami mat 3, and is folded back to the periphery of the back of the tatami mat 1, so that the tatami mat 3, the cushion plate 2, It is sewn on the tatami floor 1. Although not shown, a tatami edge 4 may be sewn to the tatami table 3 and attached to the tatami floor 1 with an adhesive.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a known non-slip sheet, which is fixed to the entire back surface of the exposed tatami floor 1 with an adhesive to avoid the danger caused by staples. Instead of the illustrated example, the non-slip sheet on the tape may be fixed to the back surface of the tatami floor at an appropriate interval. Non-slip sheet 5
Is slightly thicker than the thickness of the tatami mat 3 so as to make direct contact with the flooring F.

Although not shown, when the tatami mat is a borderless tatami mat, the cushion plate 2 and the outer side of the tatami mat floor 1 are covered with the tatami mat table 3 to be folded back to the periphery of the back surface of the tatami mat floor 1, and the cushion mat 2, Sewing to the tatami floor 1. Also in this case, the non-slip sheet 5
Is fixed to the exposed back surface of the tatami floor 1 with an adhesive as described above.

The semi-tensioned tatami mat A formed as described above is usually laid on the flooring F in a combination of four (or six) as shown in FIG. Long tatami mats are also used in combination. Of course, the number of sheets is not limited, the combination is arbitrary, and only one sheet can be laid.

In the case of a tatami mat laid in a Japanese-style room or the like instead of a tatami mat, the non-slip sheet 5 is not necessary in the configuration of the tatami mat A.

[0016]

According to the present invention, a tatami floor formed by separating a piece of cloth and solidifying it with a synthetic resin is used.
Unlike a tatami mat floor, there is no warping due to drying, so that the tatami mat does not slide on the flooring.

In the case of a tatami mat, since the non-slip sheet is not fixed with a staple, there is no danger of the staple being stuck in the foot.

When the cushion plate is fixed to the upper surface of the tatami floor, it is easy to handle because of its light weight, and the cushion plate has a moderate elasticity and a feeling close to that of a straw tatami.
