DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] As attached Figures 1-4 The artificial turf granules shown include spherical granules 1, with a plurality of buffer posts 2 evenly distributed on the outer surface of the spherical granules 1. Each buffer post 2 has a buffer ball 3 at one end. A reinforcing post 4 is connected between each two adjacent buffer posts 2, and the reinforcing post 4 is arc-shaped. The spherical granules 1, buffer posts 2, buffer balls 3 and reinforcing post 4 are all integral structures. Buffer cavities 5 are opened inside the spherical granules 1, buffer posts 2 and buffer balls 3, and the buffer cavities 5 are interconnected. A plurality of buffer holes 6 are opened through the surface of the reinforcing post 4, and the plurality of buffer holes 6 are all hexagonal structures.

[0020] Specifically, in this structure, firstly, the spherical particles 1 uniformly disperse the impact force through their spherical surface. When the externally distributed buffer columns 2 are compressed, they can axially deform to absorb energy and share the impact force. When the buffer balls 3 first come into contact with the ground or are subjected to pressure, they will form a "buffering" effect. The two constitute a multi-level elastic structure. Moreover, the buffer cavity 5, which is connected inside the spherical particles 1, buffer columns 2 and buffer balls 3, further attenuates the vibration through air compression or material deformation. The hexagonal buffer holes 6 on the surface of the reinforcing column 4 consume energy by utilizing the air flow of the porous structure, thus achieving multiple buffering effects and improving the sports comfort and impact protection capabilities of the artificial turf particles.

[0021] Secondly, the entire particle adopts a one-piece molding process, which has high strength. The arc-shaped reinforcing column 4 connects to the adjacent buffer column 2 to form a mesh support structure, which can convert the lateral stress into the tangential force along the arc surface, reduce the damage to the entire particle caused by tension and compression, and thus improve the service life of the entire particle.

[0022] In this embodiment, as shown in the appendix Figure 4 As shown, the spherical particle 1, buffer column 2, buffer ball 3, and reinforcing column 4 all include an elastic layer 7, a reinforcing layer 8, a crack-resistant layer 9, a wear-resistant layer 10, an anti-slip layer 11, and an anti-UV layer 12. The elastic layer 7, reinforcing layer 8, crack-resistant layer 9, wear-resistant layer 10, anti-slip layer 11, and anti-UV layer 12 are arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside. The elastic layer 7 is made of thermoplastic elastomer material, the reinforcing layer 8 is woven from glass fiber, the crack-resistant layer 9 is made of polyurethane elastomer material, the wear-resistant layer 10 is made of ceramic matrix composite material, the anti-slip layer 11 can be made of silicone rubber material, and the anti-UV layer 12 is acrylic resin.

[0023] Specifically, in this structure:

[0024] The elastic layer 7 made of thermoplastic elastomer material serves as a core buffer layer, which can absorb energy and quickly rebound when impacted, reducing permanent deformation of the particles;

[0025] The reinforcing layer 8 woven from glass fibers can enhance the overall support force and prevent long-term compression deformation;

[0026] The anti-cracking layer 9 made of polyurethane elastomer material has high elasticity and tear resistance, which can inhibit crack generation and expansion, and avoid structural rupture;

[0027] The wear-resistant layer 10 made of ceramic matrix composite material has the characteristics of high hardness and low friction coefficient, which can resist material loss caused by long-term friction and prolong the service life of the particles;

[0028] The anti-slip layer 11 made of silicone rubber material can increase friction by surface microstructure, improve the grip of the particles, and prevent people from slipping;

[0029] The ultraviolet-resistant layer 12 made of acrylic resin material can block ultraviolet rays, prevent material aging and discoloration, and affect the service life.

[0030] The working principle of the utility model:

[0031] The application provides a kind of long service life artificial turf particle, when specific use:

[0032] The buffer column 2, the buffer ball 3 and the arc-shaped reinforcing column 4 on the outer surface of the spherical particle 1 form an integrated multi-stage mechanical structure, the buffer cavity 5 inside the buffer column 2 and the buffer ball 3 are communicated, and the hexagonal buffer hole 6 on the surface of the reinforcing column 4 can disperse impact force and dissipate energy through air compression and damping effect;

[0033] Meanwhile, the elastic layer 7, the reinforcing layer 8, the anti-cracking layer 9, the wear-resistant layer 10, the anti-slip layer 11 and the ultraviolet-resistant layer 12 arranged in the particle from inside to outside successively respectively realize the functions of buffer rebound, structural support, anti-cracking protection, wear-resistant damage resistance, friction force improvement and ultraviolet aging blocking, and the structures and materials synergistically act to comprehensively improve the service life and performance of the particles.

[0034] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not used to limit the utility model, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
