Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a connecting structure of a shoe cloth mat base.

Traditionally, shoe-wiping mats have been widely used at the entrances of buildings, offices, shops, etc. to prevent mud, rainwater, etc. from adhering to the shoes of people entering and exiting the building and being carried inside. There is.

These shoe cleaning mats have various structures, but most of them consist of a base made of synthetic rubber or the like, and a mat that is removably attached to the base using a velvet fastener or the like.

Depending on the location, a large size shoe mat is required, and in that case, there is no problem as the rug is woven from a long piece and cut to the required length, but the base is a molded product. Therefore, if you want to obtain a molded product of the required size, you have to make a new mold, which is extremely costly, and a large single-piece base is difficult to transport and store. In this case, various disadvantageous problems arise.

Furthermore, since rugs get dirty, it is sometimes necessary to remove them from the base and wash them, which in most cases causes the rug to shrink, resulting in several centimeters of shrinkage.
Experimental results have shown that shrinkage of as much as m is common, resulting in a difference in size between the base and the rug.

This not only causes an inconvenience in terms of appearance, but also causes the tips of shoes to get caught on the edge of the rug, making it easy to peel off, and also creating a risk of tripping.

The present invention was developed in view of the above circumstances, and it is possible to obtain a mat base of a desired length by connecting multiple bases of existing sizes, and also to be able to fold the mat base as needed. To provide a shoe cloth mat base connection structure whose length can be adjusted within a certain range depending on the length of the rug.

Hereinafter, details of the present invention will be explained along with embodiments shown in the drawings.

In the figure, the shoe towel mat base is designated as a whole by the reference numeral 1, and its structure has edges 2 on two sides excluding the connecting end surface, and edges 3 a and 4 a to connect the bases 3 and 4.
As will be described later, they are placed facing each other at a predetermined interval, and connected therebetween using a high-frequency welder or adhesive via a connecting member 5 such as a PVC sheet, and connect them to the other connecting edges 3b and 4b of the bases 3 and 4. One end of the sheet 6.7 is adhered with a high-frequency welder, adhesive, etc., and a plurality of female velvet fasteners are attached at a predetermined distance on the back side of the free end side, which is the other end of the sheet 6.7. 8 and 9 are installed, and these velvet fasteners 8 and 9 correspond to the female velvet fasteners 8 and 9 on the upper surface of the connection end side of the base having edges 2 on three sides except for the connection end side indicated by reference numeral 10.11. Female velvet fasteners 12, 13 provided at positions where
It is attached to.

If the connection cable 1- is made of cloth, it will not break no matter how many times it is bent, and the distance between the bases should be adjusted as shown in Figures 2 and 3. When folding the mat base, take into consideration the thickness created by the overlap of the edges 2 of both bases when two adjacent bases are placed face up, and consider the gap between the thicknesses of the edges 2. There is a need.

In addition, the velvet fastener has female shapes 8 and 9 and female shape 12.
. , 13, it is possible to lock the base at a desired position, and the dimension between the bases can be adjusted within a certain range.

Furthermore, the adjustment does not need to take into account both the expansion and contraction of the rug, but only the contraction, so in this case the installation positions of the velvet fasteners 8, 9 and 12.13 are
．． 10 and between bases 4 and 11, edges 2 and 2 of both bases.
Male and female velvet fasteners 8.12 and 9,13 are inserted at such a position that the overall length of the base corresponds to the initial length of the rug (not shown), and at such a position that the overall length of the base corresponds to the initial length of the rug (not shown). Male and female velvet fasteners 8 are placed in such a position that the distance between the bases is maximized when fastened.
, 12 and 9, 13 can eliminate waste.

On the other hand, what is shown in Fig. 8 is a second embodiment of the present invention, and the same parts as in the first embodiment shown in Figs. .

In this embodiment, the distance between the bases can be adjusted at only one location using a plurality of velvet fasteners.

In this case as well, by making the female fastener 9 longer than the female fastener 13 by a predetermined width, it is possible to cope with the size discrepancy between the base and the rug that occurs when the rug is washed, and the operation is easy. It is convenient for the user because there are few places to do it.

In the above two embodiments, the connection member 5 such as a PVC sheet
, 6.7 are both glued to the upper surface of the bases 3 and 4, but this allows the base and floor to come into close contact with each other during use, providing stability, and since no load such as bending stress is applied to the base, This is because the base will not be damaged even after long-term use, and in this case, the top surface of the base will have unevenness due to the connecting member 6°7.8, but this is because the rug is placed on top of it. Since the thickness is extremely thin, it can be ignored, and there are no disadvantages such as impairing the usability.

The connection and usage method of this embodiment configured as above will be explained below.

First, in the first embodiment, two bases 3 and 4 are connected by a connecting member 5 such as a PVC sheet, and the same is glued to the end surfaces 3b and 4b of both bases 3 and 4, respectively. The female velvet fastener 12.13 installed on the back side of the connecting members 6, 7 such as PVC sheets is attached to the base 10.11.
Female velvet fastener 8 installed on the top connection side of the
9, it is connected to the base 10.11.

In this case, male and female velvet fasteners 8, 12 and 9,
The attachment position 13 is determined at a position where the entire length of the mat base 1 is maximized so as to correspond to the initial length of the rug (not shown).

The mat base 1 to which these four bases 3, 4, 10, and 11 are connected is transported to a place of use in a folded state.

When in use, the folded mat base 1 is unfolded and a rug (not shown) is placed thereon.

In this case, although not shown in this embodiment, a velvet fastener or the like is attached to the top surface of the mat base and the bottom surface of the rug so that they are attached to each other so that the rug does not easily come off the base. You can.

Next, if the rug becomes dirty after being used for a certain period of time, the rug is removed from the mat base 1 and washed.However, since rugs usually shrink when washed, they may be placed on the mat base 1 again for use. A gap is created between the mat base 1 and the rug.

In that case, by holding the base 10.11 and applying strong external force to the female velvet fastener 12.13,
The velvet fasteners 12 and 13 are removed from the female velvet fasteners 8 and 9.

Next, adjust the distance between bases 3 and 10 and between bases 4 and 11 to correspond to the length of the rug, apply external force again to make both velvets 1 to fasteners 8, 12 and 9, 13 engage, and then The rug is again placed on the mat base 1, the length of which has been adjusted by , and is ready for use.

Here, a case has been described in which adjustment is made between both the bases 10, 3 and 11, 4, but it goes without saying that if the adjustment range is narrow, adjustment can be made between only one set of bases.

If you want to store this mat base without using it for a certain period of time, or if you want to transport it for use in another place, you can simply fold up the mat base 1 at the connecting members 5, 6, and 7.

The first embodiment has been described above, but the second embodiment also has only one adjustment point using the velvet fastener, which reduces the user's effort, and everything else is the same as the first embodiment. Since this is the same as the embodiment, the explanation thereof will be omitted.

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, when a large size mat base is required, multiple mat bases of the existing size are connected in succession, so the mold for molding the large size mat base is There is no need to make a velvet sheet, and it can be done at a low cost, and since PVC sheets use flexible and durable connecting members, they can be easily folded, making them convenient for storage and transportation. Since the spacing between the bases, i.e. the overall length of the mat base, can be adjusted using fasteners, it is possible to cope with shrinkage of the rug due to washing, etc., so that the different lengths of the mat base and the rug can change the appearance. In addition, some of the multiple bases are pre-connected, allowing the user to connect both ends. Alternatively, it is necessary to connect only one end, which saves time and effort, and since the connection uses a velvet fastener, it is extremely easy to operate.
