Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dirt control mat according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Dirt trap mats as cleaning agents for footwear, for example in entrance areas of buildings, are known in a number of different embodiments.
  • a mat-like wiper which is formed from numerous, parallel to each other, flexibly connected profile beams.
  • the profiles have a substantially H-shaped cross-sectional shape, with longitudinal chambers or against the top and bottom of the scraper. Grooves are formed. In the chambers pointing towards the top resp. Grooves are embedded in elastic wiping elements that have a structured surface or consist of a brush-like fleece.
  • the profiles are connected by cables running through the profile beams at a medium height, each of which is anchored in the two side end profiles. Flexible, rubber-like spacer elements are arranged between adjacent profiles, through which the ropes are guided and which allow the wiper to be rolled up into a cylindrical roller.
  • the wiper has a large height due to the profile shape. Thickness of the mat, which also leads to a correspondingly large space requirement for the storage and use of the mat.
  • the construction of the wiper is also complex due to the large number of different components, which leads to high production costs. The dimensions are further The mats once made can only be changed with great effort due to the design. To do this, the ropes must be removed from their brackets, the corresponding number of existing profiles must be removed or added, and new ropes of the appropriate length must then be installed.
  • the object of the present invention was to find a floor mat of the type mentioned, which is simple and adaptable in construction, has the smallest possible installation height and the dirt wiping means are reliably held therein.
  • the inventive design of the profile carrier makes it possible to form a dirt-trapping mat with a single profile shape without further connecting elements, which can be designed very flexibly in terms of dimensions, and which is also very compact and flat.
  • the bristle bundles which are preferably pressed directly into corresponding bores in the profile carrier, achieve an improved cleaning effect in comparison to conventionally used fleece, which is supported by the recesses which are preferably provided and are designed as discharge slots.
  • Figure 1 shows the cross section of a one-piece profile 1 for creating a dirt control mat.
  • the profile 1 has a cylindrical groove 2 with a lateral opening slot 3 along a side edge.
  • the profile 1 has a spring, which also has a cylindrical cross section. Edge 4 on.
  • the spring resp. Edge 4 is designed such that it twist or along its longitudinal axis. is pivotable into the groove 2 of an adjacent, identical profile 1 '.
  • the length of the profiles 1 can easily be cut and the width can be determined by adding or removing individual profiles by the width of a profile 1 in each case. This can be done both in the manufacture of pre-assembled dirt control mats in standard sizes, but advantageously also subsequently, without the dirt control mat having to be laboriously processed.
  • bristle tufts 5 point upward in correspondingly designed recesses 6 directly in the profile body 1 itself are arranged.
  • the bristle tufts 5 can preferably be used in the form of cylindrically arranged bundles.
  • the bristle tufts 5 are preferably pressed directly into the recess 6, without the use of additional fastening means, for example plastic strips, in which the bristle tufts are embedded, the profile 1 preferably being made of an aluminum alloy.
  • the profile 1 is preferably designed as a flat profile which has a substantially rectangular shape, as can be seen in particular from the supervision according to FIG.
  • the discharge slots 7 which are preferably arranged in the surface of the profiles 1 and which run through to the underside of the profile.
  • the dirt removed by the tufts of bristles 5 from the soles of the shoes can pass through these discharge slots 7 into the space formed by the depression 8 arranged on the underside of the profile 1 together with the floor. This means that once the dirt has been removed, it cannot simply reach the sole of the next shoe that appears on the dirt-absorbing mat. This dirt can be removed periodically by simply lifting the dirt trap mat.
  • the preferably staggered arrangement of the bristle tufts 5 is shown, which on the one hand supports the cleaning effect and on the other hand the removal of the dirt or. Feeding to the discharge slots 7 facilitated. This is additionally due to the arrangement of the bristle tufts 5 at a preferred distance from one another, namely at least 1.5 times, respectively. Supports 2 times the diameter of the bristle tufts 5.
  • FIG. 3 shows the view of a further embodiment of a profile 1.
  • the profile 1 has essentially the same structure as already described in FIGS. 1 and 2, ie bristle tufts 5 which protrude upward on the upper side of the profile are also arranged offset in their own recesses.
  • To both long sides of the profile 1 are now additionally in the profile top longitudinal grooves 9 respectively. 10 arranged.
  • tongues 13 of an elastic cover 12 as shown in FIG. 5 in cross section, can engage, which between the two adjacent profiles 1 by the connection by spring or. Cover edge 4 and groove 3 formed gap.
  • the pivotability of the connection of the profiles 1 to one another is not impaired by the use of elastic material, but it can be effectively prevented, for example, that fine dirt particles get into this intermediate space and thus impair the pivotability of the connection or even make it impossible.
  • Another advantage of this cover is that it prevents longitudinal displacement of the individual profiles 1 with respect to one another. This makes it possible to use these elements alone to create a stable, rollable one To form a dirt control mat that does not require any end or frame elements.
  • FIG. 1 A further variant of a profile 1 ′′ for a dirt control mat is now shown in FIG. Basically, the structure of the profile 1 is again in accordance with the profile variants described above, only here instead of bristle tufts 5 in the profile surface are parallel grooves or grooves running parallel to the side edges of the profile. Grooves 11 arranged. In this way, in contrast to the bristle tufts 5 having profiles 1, a simplified design is achieved, which is less complex and less expensive to manufacture.
  • the profiles 1 and 1 ′′ can advantageously be combined with one another in order to achieve a particularly good cleaning effect.
