Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cycling sweat-absorbing mat technology, specifically a biodegradable cycling mat. Background Technology

[0002] Cycling sweat pads are auxiliary products specifically designed for cycling. They are mainly used to absorb sweat produced during cycling, maintaining riding comfort. During cycling, the body sweats a lot, and sweat pads can absorb sweat from the saddle, reducing dampness, keeping you dry, and preventing slippage and discomfort caused by sweat. Nowadays, with the increasing number of cycling enthusiasts, there is a lack of convenient and easy-to-replace cycling sweat pads in the market. Traditionally, cycling enthusiasts wear cycling pants with thickened sponge pads where the pants fit the saddle to cushion pressure.

[0003] Currently, due to the high intensity of cycling, cyclists sweat a lot. Thicker sponge pads can increase the temperature of the cyclist's buttocks, leading to even more sweat secretion. At the same time, the sponge pads cannot retain moisture in time, and sweat will be squeezed out when the sponge pads are under pressure, causing discomfort to the cyclist.

[0004] Therefore, a biodegradable cycling mat was proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] 1. Technical problem to be solved by the utility model

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a biodegradable cycling mat, which aims to solve the problems of existing technologies where, due to the high intensity of cycling and the large amount of sweat secretion by cyclists, thickened sponge mats increase the temperature of the cyclist's buttocks, leading to even more sweat secretion. At the same time, the sponge mat cannot retain moisture in time, and sweat will be squeezed out when the sponge mat is under pressure, causing discomfort to the cyclist.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example:

[0024] Please see Figure 1-3 This embodiment provides a biodegradable cycling mat, including a mat 1. A diversion mechanism 2 is installed on the top of the mat 1, which can disperse pressure on the buttocks, direct sweat wicking, and create air convection. A photosensitive catalyst 13 is installed at the bottom of the mat 1 to promote degradation. During use, the diversion mechanism 2 first disperses pressure on the buttocks, and then directs sweat wicking through capillary effect via sweat-wicking microchannels and diversion grooves, quickly transferring sweat to the lower layer. The bottom of the diversion mechanism 2, through a molded diamond-shaped protrusion structure, forms an air convection chamber, keeping the skin dry and preventing skin problems caused by sweat accumulation. This ensures the cycling mat remains dry, continuously providing a comfortable riding environment for the rider. Furthermore, when the mat 1 is discarded after use, the catalyst 13 promotes degradation through photosensitive means, reducing environmental pollution.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, a protective film 3 is attached to the bottom of the car mat 1 by adhesive tape 12. The protective film 3 seals and isolates the catalyst 13. A pull strap 31 is installed at one end of the bottom of the protective film 3. After the protective film 3 is torn off by the pull strap 31, physical degradation is triggered. The photosensitivity of nano TiO2 effectively promotes the degradation of the car mat 1, reducing the pollution caused by the riding mat to the environment.

[0026] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the base layer 23 is a biodegradable TPU film, which is molded into a diamond-shaped protrusion structure with an air convection chamber. The top of the base layer 23 is fitted with a core layer 22 by heat fusion. The core layer 22 is made of gradient density corn fiber cotton and has X-shaped three-dimensional channeling grooves with embedded phase change microcapsules. The top of the core layer 22 is fitted with a contact layer 21 by heat fusion. The contact layer 21 is a 3D honeycomb ramie fiber woven mesh with a double curvature ergonomic shape on the contact surface. It forms sweat-guiding microchannels through laser micro-perforation technology. The contact layer 21 disperses pressure on the buttocks and quickly guides sweat downwards. The X-shaped three-dimensional channeling grooves of the core layer 22 achieve targeted sweat guidance through capillary effect. The phase change microcapsules trigger an endothermic reaction at higher temperatures. Finally, the diamond-shaped protrusion structure of the base layer 23 forms air convection, achieving rapid sweat absorption and heat dissipation.

[0027] Working principle: During use, this biodegradable cycling mat disperses pressure on the buttocks and quickly wicks sweat downwards through the contact layer 21. The X-shaped three-dimensional channel in the core layer 22 achieves targeted sweat wicking through capillary effect. The phase change microcapsules trigger an endothermic reaction at higher temperatures. Finally, the diamond-shaped protrusions in the base layer 23 create air convection, achieving rapid sweat absorption and heat dissipation, keeping the skin dry and preventing skin problems caused by sweat accumulation. This ensures the cycling mat remains dry and provides a comfortable riding environment for cyclists. Furthermore, when the mat is discarded after use, the catalyst 13 promotes degradation through photosensitivity, reducing environmental pollution.

[0028] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0029] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
