Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of floor mats, and in particular relates to a thickened anti-skid elastic mat. Background Art

[0002] In daily life, we often install floor mats in places including but not limited to living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, house entrances, hotels, children's entertainment facilities, amusement parks, etc., to play a role in safety protection and improve the beauty of the interior. Floor mats can effectively scrape off dirt and moisture from the soles of shoes, thereby keeping the indoor floor clean. Most existing floor mats have a certain degree of softness and elasticity. When users step on or lie on the floor mat, the floor mat can effectively relieve the blood circulation pressure of the feet and the whole body to reduce physical fatigue, thereby playing an anti-fatigue function. Therefore, anti-slip floor mats with good shock absorption, anti-skid and safety protection are indispensable. However, existing floor mats generally have problems such as low structural strength, poor elastic buffering performance and poor shockproof performance, and have poor anti-slip effect and short product life after long-term use.

[0003] The existing elastic floor mats are also made of EVA foaming material. Although it can play a certain anti-skid and non-slip effect when used to replace the rubber pad body, the surface anti-skid degree is actually not good. The anti-skid effect can only be provided by the embossed pattern on the surface. The embossed pattern is a concave effect on the surface of the floor mat to form a concave and convex anti-skid surface. Its anti-skid effect is limited, and the concave part is more susceptible to dirt filling. While greatly reducing the anti-skid function of the floor mat and causing poor safety, it also reduces the service life and is not conducive to wide promotion. At the same time, the existing elastic floor mats are restricted by the overall thickness, that is, the softness and rebound rate of the floor mat are positively correlated with the overall thickness. Since the thickness of the existing elastic floor mats cannot achieve excellent softness and rebound performance, the functional comfort is poor and the experience is relatively simple. Therefore, how to effectively improve the softness and comfort of the elastic pad body and the performance of the stepping rebound rate is also a difficulty that the current floor mat industry urgently needs to break through.

[0004] Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) is a material that has the high elasticity, high strength, and high resilience of rubber and can be processed by injection molding. It has the advantages of environmental protection, non-toxicity, safety, wide hardness range, excellent colorability, soft touch, etc. It also has good weather resistance, fatigue resistance, and temperature resistance. It has excellent processing performance and does not require vulcanization. It can be recycled to reduce costs. It can be secondary injection molded, coated and bonded with base materials such as PP, PE, PC, PS, ABS, etc., or molded alone. Various elastic products made of thermoplastic elastomer as anti-slip materials have the characteristics of good elasticity, good anti-slip effect, good toughness, strong tension, recyclability and reuse; while the existing anti-slip elastic floor mat products do not widely use TPE materials. If a mat body combining EVA foam material and TPE material can be designed to achieve the corresponding soft rebound and anti-slip and anti-skid effects, it will not only effectively guarantee excellent soft rebound and functional comfort to improve the user experience, but also have excellent anti-slip and anti-skid performance to further improve the safety of use.

[0020] The TPE anti-slip layer 2 is made of TPE material. TPE is the abbreviation of thermoplastic elastomer. It is a kind of polymer material that shows rubber elasticity at room temperature and can be plasticized and formed at high temperature. It is composed of a plastic segment (hard segment) and a rubber segment (elastic soft segment). TPE is a new polymer material between rubber and resin, and has the dual properties of rubber and plastic. Common TPEs include styrenes (SBS, SIS, SEBS, SEPS), olefins (TPO, TPV), dienes (TPB, TPI), urethanes (TPU), etc. TPE materials have excellent elasticity, softness, compatibility and tensile strength, so that the TPE anti-slip layer can provide flexibility, toughness, wear resistance and excellent anti-slip properties for the thickened anti-slip elastic pad in the technical solution. On the one hand, the elastic pad can quickly recover its deformation through good rebound performance after being compressed, and on the other hand, the elastic pad body can have a stable and reliable anti-slip function to ensure the stability and safety of use.

[0021] Please continue to see Figure 1 and Figure 2The TPE anti-skid layer 2 is also laminated with a TPE anti-skid layer anti-skid pattern 21 on the side surface facing downward in the use state. The TPE anti-skid layer anti-skid pattern 21 is used to enhance the friction between the TPE anti-skid layer 2 and the horizontal surface, and the TPE anti-skid layer anti-skid pattern 21 is formed as a convex structure on the lower surface of the TPE anti-skid layer 2, thereby effectively ensuring the stable anti-skid effect of the elastic pad in the technical solution and improving the comfort of use; and Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the anti-slip texture 21 of the TPE anti-slip layer is formed by evenly arranged raised anti-slip strips. Of course, the shape of the anti-slip texture 21 of the TPE anti-slip layer is not limited thereto, and can be designed into various types, such as a wrinkled surface, a corrugated surface with multiple grooves, a serrated surface or any combination of shapes. Any changes in shape and structure are within the protection scope of this patent and will not be elaborated here.

[0022] It should be noted that Figure 1 In the embodiment shown in the figure, the shape of the thickened anti-slip elastic pad of the present technical solution is a rectangular sheet body. Of course, it can also be any other shape, including but not limited to rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal, character shapes, cartoon animal shapes, and shapes that are easy to splice, etc. It can make corresponding changes according to its actual use needs and production process requirements, all of which are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] The foaming layer 11 is one of an EVA foaming layer, a PE foaming layer, a TPE foaming layer or a composite foaming layer; the EVA material is an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer), and the PE material is polyethylene (Polyethylene), TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) is a thermoplastic elastomer material, and the composite foaming layer can combine EVA material, PE material and TPE material. In this embodiment, the foaming layer 11 is preferably an EVA foaming layer. EVA, as a cross-linked foaming material, has good flexibility, high flexibility, resilience, chemical corrosion resistance, and shock absorption and sound insulation properties. The EVA foaming layer can provide excellent resilience and anti-slip performance for the elastic pad together with the soft, compliant and grippy TPE anti-slip layer 2. Of course, the material of the foaming layer 11 is not limited to this, and it can be changed accordingly according to the corresponding usage requirements and production process requirements, all within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] The foaming layer 11 has a plurality of cells and the cells are interconnected open-cell foams; the thickness of the open-cell foam is 1 mm to 5 mm, and the cell diameter is 50 μm to 400 μm; it should be further explained that when the foaming layer 11 made of EVA material is used in the manufacturing of the utility model, calcium carbonate powder, foaming agent, bridging agent, zinc oxide, stearic acid and color particles and other materials can be added thereto; wherein the calcium carbonate powder can be used to fill the cells to ensure that the shape of the cells is not deformed; the foaming agent can promote the generation of gas during the foaming of the stearic acid foaming layer, thereby increasing the The elasticity of the foaming layer is increased; the bridging agent is a cross-linking agent, which can cross-link the foaming layer into shape; and zinc oxide is used as a heat transfer paste during rubber mixing to make the temperature of each area of ​​the foaming layer consistent during the foaming process, shorten the vulcanization time, and avoid local overheating of the foaming layer and burning or aging. In addition, zinc oxide forms zinc soap under the action of stearic acid, making the bridging agent more active; stearic acid can be used as a demoulding agent, and after its addition, the product placed in the mold to complete the foaming can be quickly demoulded to ensure the integrity of the product when demoulding; the color particles are used for dyeing, and its addition can make the foaming layer 11 used to produce the required color.

[0025] The weight of the foaming layer 11 is 60 to 1000 g / m 2 In the actual production process, the square gram weight of the foam layer 11 can be adjusted based on the considerations of wear resistance and comfort. The larger the square gram weight, the higher the density of the upper surface layer 1, the better the wear resistance and foot feel, thereby ensuring the use effect.

[0026] The TPE anti-slip layer 2 is compounded on the lower part of the upper surface layer 1 through a high-temperature lamination process; through the high-temperature lamination method, the TPE anti-slip layer 2 can be evenly coated on the lower part of the upper surface layer 1 to ensure the firmness of the bonding and high connection strength, and during the lamination process, the temperature is generally controlled between 180 and 220°C; the high-temperature lamination process can ensure that the two bonding layers have the advantages of strong adhesion, good heat resistance, strong chemical resistance, etc., ensure the overall strength of the elastic pad, and improve the reliability of use.

The provision of the anti-slip coating 22 makes the thickened anti-slip elastic pad in the technical solution more wear-resistant and scratch-resistant, thereby further improving the reliability of use.

[0028] The TPE anti-slip layer 2 has a gram weight of 100 to 600 g / m 2Similar to the foaming layer 11, based on the considerations of rebound wear resistance and comfort, the square gram weight of the TPE anti-slip layer 2 can be adjusted. The larger the square gram weight, the higher the density of the upper surface layer 1, and the TPE anti-slip layer 2 can be thickened to improve its overall elasticity, tensile strength and anti-slip performance, thereby improving the comfort and safety of use.

[0029] The foaming layer 11 is integrally formed during the foaming operation. The integral foaming molding has higher strength and lower cost, which is conducive to the mass production of the thickened anti-slip elastic pad in the present technical solution, can ensure the overall strength, and greatly improve the economic benefits of the elastic pad.

[0030] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , briefly describe the preparation and working principle of the technical solution provided by the utility model: when preparing the thickened anti-skid elastic pad, first prepare the foam layer 11 through an integrated foaming operation. If the upper surface layer 1 is composed of multiple foam layers 11, the multiple foam layers 11 can be combined by heat sealing and other process forms, and then the TPE anti-skid material can be compounded to the lower part of the upper surface layer 1 through high-temperature lamination, and further press out the corresponding TPE anti-skid layer anti-skid texture 21, and then the product appearance is further processed to produce a product of a corresponding shape, thereby completing the preparation of the thickened anti-skid elastic pad; and when using the thickened anti-skid elastic pad, water directed toward, but not limited to, the ground, etc. can be directly It can be laid on a flat surface. Since the TPE material itself and the TPE anti-slip layer anti-slip texture 21 and anti-slip coating 22 have excellent flexibility, wear resistance and anti-slip performance, and the anti-slip performance can be further improved by pressing TPE, the TPE anti-slip layer 2 has good bonding with the horizontal surface after paving, and the overall structural strength is high, which can prevent users from accidentally sliding and causing injuries when using or walking through the mat. The thickened anti-slip elastic mat in this technical solution can be used as a splicing floor mat, kitchen mat, yoga mat, door mat and other products, and has excellent resilience and wear and scratch resistance, good tensile resistance and cushioning performance, which further improves the comfort of use.
