Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an anti-fatigue floor mat, in particular to a gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on recycled sponge. Background Art

[0002] As a highly elastic material, gel is the only choice for the anti-fatigue layer of anti-fatigue mats. However, the price of gel is relatively high compared to mats. In order to control costs, people use recycled sponges to reduce costs, but the price of sponges is not high, and recycled sponges have little impact on costs. On the other hand, the strength of gel itself is limited, and the strength of recycled sponges after foaming is not much, which greatly affects the life of the mat itself. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned defects of the prior art and provide a gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on fiber-reinforced recycled sponge. The present invention can reduce costs and ensure the life of the product itself.

[0004] The present invention is implemented in this way: a gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on fiber-reinforced recycled sponge comprises, from bottom to top, an anti-slip layer, a foamed recycled sponge layer, a gel layer and a surface layer. The foamed recycled sponge layer is reinforced with fiber and is made of recycled sponge with a hard skin, recycled sponge covered with cloth, and the uppers of discarded sports shoes that are crushed and mixed with glue before foaming and solidifying.

[0005] The gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on fiber-reinforced recycled sponge has a gel layer divided into several areas by a laminated surface layer.

[0006] The gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on fiber-reinforced recycled sponge has a surface layer of PU or PVC fiber cloth.

[0007] A method for preparing a gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on fiber-reinforced recycled sponge comprises:

[0008] Step 1: Combine the recycled sponge with hard skin, the recycled sponge with fabric and the discarded sports shoes.

[0009] After the flour is crushed and mixed, a foaming agent and glue are added and stirred evenly to form the middle layer material;

[0010] Step 2: Lay an anti-skid layer on the bottom of the mold, lay the middle layer material of step 1 on the anti-skid layer, and level it;

[0011] Step 3: Use the gel syringe to inject gel on the leveled middle layer material while swinging back and forth from one side of the mold to the other side;

[0012] Step 4: Cover the topmost surface with a surface layer, close the mold, and heat and pressurize for 1-30 minutes;

[0013] Step five: cooling and demoulding to obtain the gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on fiber-reinforced recycled sponge.

[0014] The method for preparing the gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on fiber-reinforced recycled sponge, in the step 1, the mass ratio of the recycled sponge with hard skin, the recycled sponge coated with cloth, the discarded sports shoe uppers, the foaming agent and the glue is 10:5:5:3-4:1-3.

[0015] The method for preparing the fiber-reinforced recycled sponge-based gel anti-fatigue floor mat comprises the following steps: in the step 1, the recycled sponge with hard skin, the recycled sponge coated with cloth and the discarded sports shoe uppers are crushed to a particle size of 0.1-10 mm.

[0016] The method for preparing the gel anti-fatigue floor mat based on fiber-reinforced recycled sponge, wherein the heating to 80-210° C. is performed in step 4.

[0017] The present invention uses recycled sponges with hard skin, recycled sponges covered with cloth, and discarded sports shoe uppers and other materials, which are crushed and foamed. These hard skins, cloths, and plastic layers on the sports shoe uppers are crushed into fibers at the same time. After the recycled sponges are foamed, these fibers constitute reinforcing fibers, which ensure the strength of the middle layer, thereby improving the strength of the product and ensuring the lifespan. The recycled sponges with hard skin, the cloth-covered, and the discarded sports shoe uppers were previously directly discarded. The present invention turns waste into treasure, and cooperates with the snake-shaped coated gel to greatly reduce costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0019] Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of the present invention; Figure 2 It is a top view of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
