Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of turf base fabric technology, specifically relating to a block-shaped artificial turf base fabric. Background Technology

[0002] Artificial turf is made by combining artificial grass fibers with a base fabric through a tufting process to form a turf pattern. Artificial turf is mainly used in sports venues such as schools, playgrounds, and ball fields, and is also used in decorative venues such as parks.

[0003] When artificial turf is used in kindergartens, there are some inconveniences. For example, community kindergartens are generally small in scale, with limited outdoor activity space. The space also needs to be equipped with children's equipment such as slides and rocking chairs, resulting in irregular open spaces. It is difficult to lay a whole piece of artificial turf, which needs to be cut and matched, making it difficult to restore the artificial turf after dismantling and cleaning.

[0004] Most importantly, kindergarten children are young and inevitably bump into things and fall during outdoor activities. Artificial turf is not thick and, being close to the ground, does not absorb impact, so children can still suffer considerable injuries if they fall on it. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a block-shaped artificial turf base fabric to solve the technical problems that existing artificial turf is not suitable for scattered and irregular laying spaces and has no energy absorption capacity. This utility model includes: a tufted layer; An energy-absorbing layer is disposed below the tufted layer; A substrate layer is disposed below the energy-absorbing layer; The tufted layer, the energy-absorbing layer, and the substrate layer are connected by a number of spaced-apart seams; The tufted layer and the substrate layer are woven fabrics; The energy-absorbing layer is a foamed material or an elastomer material.

[0006] This invention utilizes the elastic material of the energy-absorbing layer to absorb the impact energy of a child falling, thus providing a cushioning effect for the child.

[0007] Furthermore: the warp density of the tufted layer is 100 yarns / 10cm, and the weft density is 63 yarns / 10cm; The warp and weft densities of the substrate layer are less than or equal to the warp and weft densities of the tufted layer. The beneficial effect of this step is to ensure that the artificial grass fibers can be tightly tufted, thereby improving the tufting effect.

[0008] Furthermore, the thickness of the energy-absorbing layer is 1~2cm. The beneficial effects of this step are that it balances energy absorption effect and storage difficulty.

[0009] Furthermore, the energy-absorbing layer is provided with a connecting structure around its perimeter. The connecting structure is a continuous toothed structure. The beneficial effect of this step is that the toothed structure can interlock with each other, allowing adjacent artificial turf blocks to fit together more closely and not separate.

[0010] Furthermore, the tufted layer, the energy-absorbing layer, and the substrate layer have the same outline, which is a regular polygon or a rectangle. The advantage of this step is that regular shapes are easier to assemble.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. In this application, the tufted layer, the energy-absorbing layer and the substrate layer are connected by stitches instead of glue to avoid the tufted layer, the substrate layer and the energy-absorbing layer being tightly adhered and affecting the tufting effect; 2. The energy-absorbing layer can absorb impact energy, reducing the probability of personnel injury; 3. Artificial turf made from block-structured artificial turf base fabric is easier to splice and more flexible in use. Attached Figure Description

It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains.

[0017] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly defined.

[0018] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0019] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature is in indirect contact with the second feature through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0020] Implementation of this application, for example Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application provides a block-shaped artificial turf base fabric.

[0021] This application includes: a tufted layer 1; Energy-absorbing layer 2 is disposed below the tufted layer 1; Substrate 3 is disposed below the energy-absorbing layer 2; The tufted layer 1, the energy-absorbing layer 2, and the substrate layer 3 are connected by a number of spaced-apart seams 4; The tufted layer 1 and the substrate layer 3 are woven fabrics. The tufted layer 1 and the substrate layer 3 can also be non-woven fabrics, or the woven fabrics and non-woven fabrics can be superimposed and combined. The tufted layer 1 mainly provides a tight structure to firmly fix the artificial grass fibers on the tufted layer 1, or the artificial grass fibers are partially embedded in the energy-absorbing layer 2, and then the artificial grass fibers are fixedly connected to the tufted layer 1 with glue. The energy-absorbing layer 2 is a foamed material or an elastomer material, including foam, TPE or other materials.

[0022] This invention utilizes the elastic material of the energy-absorbing layer 2 to absorb the impact energy of a child falling, thus providing a cushioning effect. Furthermore, the method of connecting the tufted layer 1 and the substrate layer 3 to the energy-absorbing layer 2 using stitches 4 allows for gaps between the tufted layer 1 and the energy-absorbing layer 2, preventing them from being completely bonded together like glue, thus providing a good tufting environment. The substrate layer 3 serves to protect the energy-absorbing layer 2 and increase friction.

[0023] Based on the above technical solution, the warp density of the tufted layer 1 is 100 threads / 10cm, and the weft density is 63 threads / 10cm; The warp and weft densities of the substrate layer 3 are less than or equal to the warp and weft densities of the tufting layer 1. The tufting layer 1 needs to ensure that the artificial grass fibers can be tightly tufted to improve the tufting effect, while the substrate layer 3 only needs to protect the energy-absorbing layer 2 and increase friction, so it is acceptable for the substrate layer 3 to be relatively sparse.

[0024] Based on the above technical solution, the thickness of the energy-absorbing layer 2 is 1~2cm. This thickness of the energy-absorbing layer 2 takes into account both energy absorption effect and storage difficulty. An excessively thick energy-absorbing layer 2 is not easy to bend and can only be stacked, which can easily occupy a large space.

[0025] Based on the above technical solution, the energy-absorbing layer 2 is provided with a connecting structure 21 around its perimeter. The connecting structure 21 is a continuous toothed structure that can interlock with each other, allowing adjacent blocks of artificial turf to fit together more closely and not separate.

[0026] Based on the above technical solution, the tufted layer 1, the energy-absorbing layer 2 and the substrate layer 3 have the same outline. The outline is a regular polygon or a rectangle. The regular block structure is easier to splice and also conforms to the aesthetics of decoration.
