Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive armrest decoration technology, specifically to a type of leather for automotive armrest decoration. Background Technology
[0002] Car armrests are components in vehicle interiors designed to support passengers' arms. Their main function is to improve riding comfort and reduce fatigue during long drives or rides. Leather is a natural material made from animal hides through tanning and processing, and it is widely used in clothing, footwear, bags, furniture, and automotive interiors.
[0003] Leather is often used in the decoration of car armrests. Chinese utility model patent CN216885563U discloses a printable hot melt adhesive composite leather decorative material, comprising a first layer of water-based weak solvent coating, a second layer of leather, a third layer of hot melt adhesive, and a fourth layer of structural profile. This printable hot melt adhesive composite decorative material uses roll-form leather material coated with a water-based weak solvent using a gravure coating method. It is then printed using a printer according to customized colors or patterns. The back of the leather is heat-bonded with PA hot melt adhesive film, TPU hot melt adhesive film, or EVA hot melt adhesive film to the surface of the plastic components, tiles, aluminum alloys, etc., to be covered, and then cut and processed according to different sizes. This greatly reduces the processing difficulty of leather applications, significantly lowers costs, and uses environmentally friendly materials throughout. Since leather is mostly used in enclosed environments such as indoors and in cars, this processing material eliminates the need for solvent-based adhesives and other sealing steps, making it more environmentally friendly.
[0004] Although this utility model can fix leather decorative materials to the surfaces of plastic components, tiles, aluminum alloys, etc. that need to be covered by heating and bonding, the hot melt adhesive film is too sticky, and the fixing and disassembly process is relatively troublesome. It requires the use of a spray gun for heating in order to fix and disassemble, and it is not convenient for cleaning and replacement. Its applicability is poor. Therefore, a leather for car armrest decoration is proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content
