An embedded structure for anti-slip texture on a floor play mat

Abstract

This utility model discloses an embedded anti-slip texture structure for a play mat, comprising a mat body with a top layer and a bottom layer. The outer surface of the bottom layer is provided with an embedded anti-slip texture containing main anti-slip raised units and auxiliary strip-shaped raised units. The main anti-slip raised units are arrayed and are embedded structures formed by the bottom layer being recessed and then raised, with a cross-grid micro-texture at the top. The strip-shaped raised units fill the gaps and are lower in height. Both are integrally formed with the bottom layer through a molding process, and the joint surface has a sawtooth interlocking structure. The edge of the mat body has continuous anti-slip raised units that are higher than the main raised units. This structure solves the problems of easy detachment, uneven anti-slip properties, and easy curling of the edges of existing play mat anti-slip structures, and can improve the connection strength between the anti-slip texture and the mat body, the overall anti-slip effect, and stability, making it suitable for use in homes, early childhood education institutions, and outdoors.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ground protection products technology, and in particular to a ground play mat with an embedded anti-slip texture structure. Background Technology

[0002] Play mats are protective products used for crawling, playing, and other activities on the ground. Their main function is to provide a safe and comfortable surface for children to play on through their soft texture, preventing children from directly contacting hard, cold ground. Some products also feature cartoon patterns, game scenes, and other elements on the surface, combining entertainment and early education functions. They are widely used in homes, early education institutions, and other settings.

[0003] The basic structure of existing play mats typically includes a surface layer for supporting patterns and providing tactile feedback, and a backing layer for contact with the ground. The backing layer, designed for anti-slip properties, often consists of discrete anti-slip granules glued to the surface, a layer of anti-slip coating applied, or simple pressing to create single-height, block-shaped protrusions. However, these structures have significant shortcomings: the glued granules or coatings are only superficially attached to the backing material, resulting in weak bonding strength. Over time, they are easily detached due to children's footsteps, dragging, or cleaning friction, leading to a rapid decline in anti-slip effectiveness. The pressed block-shaped protrusions often extend directly outwards from the backing surface, with a smooth transition at the interface. Under stress, they are prone to breakage at the base, and the gaps between the protrusions lack supplementary anti-slip structures, resulting in limited anti-slip contact area and inconsistent overall anti-slip performance. Furthermore, existing products often lack dedicated anti-slip design at the edges, making them prone to curling or sliding during activities, further reducing safety and failing to meet children's needs for anti-slip durability and overall stability during play. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problems of easy detachment of anti-slip patterns, insufficient anti-slip effect, and poor edge stability in existing floor play mats. It provides an embedded structure for anti-slip patterns on floor play mats, which improves anti-slip performance and durability by optimizing the combination of anti-slip patterns and the mat body and the structural design.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: an embedded anti-slip texture structure for a floor play mat, comprising a mat body, the mat body having an upward-facing mat surface layer and a downward-facing mat bottom layer, the outer surface of the mat bottom layer being provided with an embedded anti-slip texture, the embedded anti-slip texture including a plurality of main anti-slip raised units and auxiliary anti-slip structures; the main anti-slip raised units are arranged in an array, each main anti-slip raised unit being an embedded block structure formed by indentation from the outer surface of the mat bottom layer and then protrusion outward, with a protrusion height of 0.3-1.5m. m, and the top surface of the main anti-slip raised unit is provided with cross-grid micro-textures; the auxiliary anti-slip structure is a strip-shaped protrusion filling the gap between adjacent main anti-slip raised units. The strip-shaped protrusion is an integrally formed structure with the main anti-slip raised unit and the blanket bottom layer, and the height of the strip-shaped protrusion is 0.1-0.5mm lower than the height of the main anti-slip raised unit; the blanket bottom layer is made of foamed elastic material, and the embedded anti-slip pattern is formed by partially melting and reshaping the blanket bottom layer material through a molding process. Its bonding surface with the blanket bottom layer has a sawtooth interlocking structure.

[0006] Furthermore, the planar shape of the main anti-slip protrusion unit is a regular hexagon, and the gap width between adjacent main anti-slip protrusion units is 0.8-2mm. The regular hexagonal structure can achieve a tight arrangement without gaps, maximizing the anti-slip contact area.

[0007] Furthermore, the grid line width of the intersecting mesh micro-texture is 0.1-0.3mm, and the grid side length is 0.5-1mm. The anti-slip effect can be improved by increasing the micro-friction between the main anti-slip protrusion unit and the ground.

[0008] Furthermore, the cross-section of the strip-shaped protrusion is semi-circular, which can both fill the gaps to achieve auxiliary anti-slip and avoid wear or a rough feel caused by sharp structures.

[0009] Furthermore, the edge of the blanket is provided with a continuous ring of anti-slip protrusions. The height of the anti-slip protrusions is 0.2-0.4mm higher than the main anti-slip protrusion unit, which can enhance the adhesion between the edge and the ground and prevent the edge from curling or sliding.

[0010] Furthermore, the tooth depth of the serrated interlocking structure is 0.2-0.6mm and the tooth spacing is 0.3-0.8mm. By increasing the mechanical interlocking force of the mating surface, the connection strength between the anti-slip base and the carpet bottom layer is improved, preventing it from falling off.

[0011] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages compared with the prior art: A. Embedded structure enhances connection strength: The anti-slip pattern is integrally formed with the carpet bottom layer through a molding process, and the bonding surface has a serrated interlocking structure. Compared with the existing adhesive or simple pressing structure, it greatly enhances the bonding force between the anti-slip pattern and the carpet body, effectively solves the problem of easy detachment of the anti-slip structure, and improves durability. B. Multi-level anti-slip design enhances anti-slip effect: The main anti-slip raised unit array distribution expands the contact area, the top cross grid-like micro-texture improves micro-friction, and the auxiliary strip-shaped raised parts fill the gaps to achieve comprehensive anti-slip. The combination of the three makes the anti-slip effect more stable and uniform. C. Enhanced edge design improves overall stability: The anti-slip protrusions on the edges are higher than the main anti-slip unit, which can effectively prevent the edges of the blanket from curling or sliding, further ensuring the safety of children during activities.

[0012] Other advantages, objectives and features of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the following examination or study, or may be taught from the practice of this invention.

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.

[0016] It should be noted that the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "up," "down," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this article are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0017] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains; the terminology used herein in the description of this invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention; the term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an anti-slip textured embedded structure for a floor play mat includes a mat body, which consists of an upward-facing mat surface layer 1 and a downward-facing mat bottom layer 2. The mat surface layer 1 is made of soft plush fabric, and the mat bottom layer 2 is made of EVA foam elastic material.

[0019] The outer surface of the blanket bottom layer 2 is provided with an embedded anti-slip pattern, which is made by molding process: the blanket bottom layer 2 is placed in a mold with a preset pattern, heated to melt a part of the material of the blanket bottom layer 2, and the mold is pressurized to make the molten material flow along the mold cavity. After cooling, an embedded anti-slip pattern is formed integrally with the blanket bottom layer 2. The mating surface of the pattern with the blanket bottom layer 2 forms a sawtooth-shaped interlocking structure 7 with a tooth depth of 0.4mm and a tooth spacing of 0.5mm.

[0020] The embedded anti-slip texture includes main anti-slip raised units 3 and auxiliary anti-slip structures 4: the main anti-slip raised units 3 are distributed in a regular hexagonal array with a distribution density of 6 units per square centimeter and a gap width of 1.5 mm between adjacent units. Each main anti-slip raised unit 3 is recessed inward and protruded outward from the surface of the blanket bottom layer 2, with a protrusion height of 1 mm. The top is provided with a cross-grid micro-texture 5 with a grid line width of 0.2 mm and a grid side length of 0.8 mm. The auxiliary anti-slip structure 4 is a strip-shaped protrusion 6 that fills the gap. It has a semi-circular cross section and a height of 0.7 mm (0.3 mm lower than the main anti-slip raised units), and is integrally formed with the main anti-slip raised units 3. The edge of the blanket body is provided with a continuous edge anti-slip protrusion with a height of 1.3 mm (0.3 mm higher than the main anti-slip raised units), and the inner side is connected to the adjacent main anti-slip raised units 3 through the strip-shaped protrusion 6.

[0021] In this embodiment, the serrated interlocking structure 7 ensures that the anti-slip texture is firmly bonded to the carpet bottom layer 2, the main anti-slip raised unit 3 and the strip raised 6 work together to achieve comprehensive anti-slip, and the edge raised enhances the overall stability, which is suitable for the safety needs of children's play scenarios.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] This utility model, as an improved structure for floor play mats, is adaptable to the basic usage scenarios of existing floor play mats (such as homes, early childhood education institutions, and temporary outdoor activities). Its core design, through the integrated integration of the embedded anti-slip texture with the mat body, solves the stability and durability issues of existing anti-slip structures in different floor environments. The following describes the usage states of each structure and their differences in interaction with existing technologies in different application scenarios: Scenario 1: Family living room (wood flooring / tile floor) In home settings, floors are often smooth wooden floors or tiles, where children frequently crawl, drag toys, and engage in other activities. Existing play mats' anti-slip structures are prone to coming loose or slipping due to frequent friction.

[0024] The device is in use as follows: The carpet is laid directly on the surface of wood flooring or ceramic tile, with the embedded anti-slip texture of the carpet bottom layer 2 in contact with the ground. The main anti-slip raised units 3 are arranged in a hexagonal array to distribute the force evenly. Their embedded structure, which is "concave inward and convex outward", is firmly connected to the carpet bottom layer 2 through a serrated interlocking structure 7. When children step on them, the main anti-slip raised units 3 are subjected to vertical pressure, and the toothed interlocking surface of the serrated interlocking structure 7 disperses the stress, avoiding the problem of "breakage at the root of the surface protrusion" in the existing technology. The cross-grid micro-texture 5 on the top forms a micro-interlock with the smooth ground. The grid lines (0.1-0.3mm wide) are embedded in the tiny gaps in the ground, enhancing static friction and solving the problem of slippery single protrusions on ceramic tiles.

[0025] The strip-shaped protrusions 6 (semi-circular cross-section) between adjacent main anti-slip protrusion units 3 fill the gaps. When the blanket is dragged, the strip-shaped protrusions 6 contact the ground to form "secondary friction", which, together with the main anti-slip protrusion units 3, forms a continuous anti-slip surface, avoiding the phenomenon of "local slippage caused by the lack of anti-slip structure in the gaps between protrusions" in the existing technology. The edge anti-slip protrusions (0.2-0.4mm higher than the main protrusions) fit tightly against the ground to prevent the edges of the blanket from rolling up when children pull it. The edges of existing play blankets do not have a special anti-slip design and are prone to rolling up, causing the whole blanket to slide.

[0026] The difference from existing technologies: The anti-slip granules of existing game mats need to be glued to the bottom layer of the mat. With long-term use on wooden floors, they are prone to falling off due to the aging of the glue. However, this device uses a molding process to make the anti-slip pattern and the bottom layer 2 (foamed elastic material) of the mat into one piece, without the need for additional gluing steps. During installation, you only need to lay the mat flat. Moreover, the serrated interlocking structure 7 ensures that the connection strength between the anti-slip pattern and the mat is far greater than that of existing adhesive structures.

[0027] Scenario 2: Early childhood education institutions (rubber floor / cement floor) Early childhood education institutions typically have wear-resistant rubber flooring or rough cement flooring. Children engage in intensive activities (such as group games, running, and jumping), which places higher demands on the anti-slip and durability of play mats. Existing pressed, single-height raised mats are prone to wear and tear due to rough surfaces or uneven stress, leading to localized deformation.

[0028] The device is in use as follows: After the carpet is laid on the floor or cement floor, the height of the main anti-slip raised unit 3 (0.3-1.5mm) is adapted to the rough surface. On the cement floor, the higher raised part can cross the small particles on the ground, and the cross-grid micro-texture 5 (grid side length 0.5-1mm) holds the raised part of the ground, avoiding the slippage caused by the existing low raised part being "suspended" by the particles. On the floor, the embedded structure of the main anti-slip raised unit 3 can conform to the slight deformation of the ground due to the flexibility of the foamed elastic material, while the existing hard rubber particles are easy to form "point contact" with the floor and are easy to shift after being stressed.

[0029] The height of the strip-shaped protrusions 6 in the auxiliary anti-slip structure is 0.1-0.5mm lower than that of the main protrusions. On rough surfaces, the main protrusions bear the main friction force, while the strip-shaped protrusions 6 fill the gaps to prevent small stones and other debris from getting stuck, thus solving the problem of dust accumulation and unevenness in existing protrusion gaps. The serrated interlocking structure 7 (tooth depth 0.2-0.6mm) prevents the anti-slip base from separating from the carpet bottom layer 2 through the mechanical interlocking of the toothed structure under frequent foot traffic. Compared with the "smooth joint surface" of existing pressed protrusions, the tear resistance is improved by more than 50%.

[0030] Differences from existing technologies: When existing play mats are used on cement floors, the anti-slip coating is easily peeled off due to friction. However, the anti-slip texture of this device is made of the same material (foamed elastic material) as the bottom layer of the mat, and is formed by molding and melting. Its wear resistance is consistent with the mat body, and no additional spraying or pasting of wear-resistant layer is required. After installation, it can directly withstand the friction of intensive activities.

[0031] Scenario 3: Temporary outdoor scene (grass / stone ground) Outdoor surfaces are often uneven grass or stone slabs. Play mats need to be laid temporarily and must withstand the lateral forces from wind or children running. Existing play mats are prone to shifting because their edges are easy to curl, their anti-slip structure has low adhesion to the ground, and they are easy to move as a whole.

[0032] The device is in use as follows: When laid on grass, the array distribution of the main anti-slip raised units 3 can adapt to the undulation of the grass - the raised units are embedded in the gaps between the grass stems, and the cross-grid micro-textures 5 wrap around the grass fibers to enhance grip, while the existing flat anti-slip texture is easily supported by the grass stems, causing slippage; the strip-shaped raised units 6 fill the gaps to prevent grass blades from getting stuck between the main raised units and affecting the flatness.

[0033] When laid on a stone slab floor, the edge anti-slip protrusions (continuous ring shape) are higher (0.2-0.4mm higher than the main protrusions), which can be embedded in the stone slab joints or "locked" with the stone slab edge to resist lateral dragging force; when the embedded structure of the main anti-slip protrusion unit 3 is subjected to force on the hard surface of the stone slab, the sawtooth interlocking structure 7 disperses the stress and avoids the breakage caused by the existing protrusions "colliding head-on".

[0034] The difference from existing technologies: Existing outdoor temporary play mats often require additional weights to press down the edges to prevent movement, while this device achieves anti-rolling and anti-slip by tightly adhering the anti-slip protrusions on the edges to the ground, without the need for additional auxiliary tools, making installation more convenient; and the molding process of the embedded anti-slip texture makes the bottom layer 2 of the mat both elastic and strong, and the anti-slip structure is not easily deformed after folding and storage, solving the problem that existing adhesive particles are easy to fall off after folding.

[0035] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and alterations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the claims.
