Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial application field This invention is mainly used in combination with bedding, maintains the hygiene of the bedding over a long period of time, and at the same time allows the user to sleep peacefully. The present invention relates to a laminate that exhibits the effects obtained.

〓Conventional technology〓 Hinokitiol, which is present in the essential oil of cypress, especially Taiwanese cypress, and in cypress leaf oil, has strong antibacterial properties.
It has been confirmed that it has excellent antibacterial and antifungal effects, especially against pathogenic bacteria, has aromatic properties, and can also exert a mental stabilizing effect called forest bathing.

Therefore, products that focus on the properties of hinokitiol have become commercially available, such as gum pine surge cream, antiseptic for feed, and even as an aromatic agent. It was mixed in. Furthermore, cypress has traditionally been used as a material for wood products such as bathtubs and bathtubs.

〓Problems that the invention aims to solve〓 For example, products that extract hinokitiol and use it as the main ingredient, such as air fresheners with the characteristic scent of cypress, cannot produce a fragrance once the alcohol evaporates. There was a problem that it could not maintain its effectiveness over a long period of time. In addition, cypress wood is expensive, and because it is not flexible when formed into a board, there are limits to how it can be combined with flexible materials such as cloth.

The present invention solves the above problems and relates to a laminate that can be used in combination with pillows, futons, carpets, building materials, etc.

〓Means for solving the problem〓 Cypress wood or Japanese cypress leaves were formed into particles or powder, and this was laminated on at least one side of a flexible sheet-like material such as a non-woven fabric.

〓Effect〓 The laminate of the present invention has a flexible sheet-like material such as a non-woven fabric as the base fabric, and the overall structure is sandpaper-like, so it is flexible. When used between the cover and the laminate, the laminate deforms to wrap around the user's head, and the user does not experience the discomfort of being irritated by a hard board. Your mind will be relaxed and you will fall into a comfortable sleep. In addition, since cypress wood or cypress leaves are used directly, the scent emanates over a long period of time, and it also prevents mold from forming on the stuffing due to perspiration.

〓Example〓 An example of the implementation of the laminate of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

The laminate 1 of the present invention is characterized by its flexibility so that it can be used mainly in combination with pillows and mattresses.

The sheet-like material 2 is made of non-woven fabric and has a shape,
The size is obtained by arbitrarily cutting a predetermined size. This sheet-like material 2 may be a molded article of synthetic resin such as latex instead of non-woven fabric. An adhesive 3 is applied to at least one surface of the sheet material 2 that will become a non-woven fabric, and on top of it, fine granular or powdered material such as sawdust, or even a mixture of granular and powdered cypress material 4 is applied all over the adhesive material 3. The laminate 1 is formed by coating and forming into a sandpaper-like shape.

As the cypress material 4, Taiwanese cypress is preferable, and the cypress material 4 may be mixed with cypress leaves, or only cypress leaves may be used. Hinokitiol is present in the essential oil of cypress wood or cypress leaves, and even though this hinokitiol is a non-benzene compound, it has aromatic properties due to its parent tropolone nucleus. In addition to emitting a unique fragrance, it also exhibits special chemical and physical properties such as insect repellency, antiseptic, and antifungal properties.

FIG. 3 shows an example of how the laminate 1 of the present invention is used, in which the laminate 1 of the present invention is stacked on a mattress 5 with the cypress side facing up, and this is covered with a futon cover 6. be. Although not shown, it may be used by inserting it between a pillow and a pillowcase in the same way, and is particularly effective when used in combination with bedding that is not exposed to sunlight much, such as a bed mattress. . Although not shown in this embodiment, the cypress wood 4
It is desirable to cover the top with a breathable film to prevent the cypress wood from scattering during use.

Effects of the invention The laminate of the invention is made by forming cypress wood or cypress leaves into granules or powder and fixing this to at least one surface of a flexible sheet material such as non-woven fabric, so it can be used as a building material. Not only can it be used as a carpet-like rug, but it can also be used in combination with pillows and futons, which exhibit different flexibility depending on the usage. The special chemical and physical properties of hinokitiol can be widely used in living spaces, and when used in combination with bedding, it emits a pleasant scent over a long period of time, allowing the user to sleep in a restful mood. It has various useful effects on bedding, such as exhibiting antibacterial properties such as insect repellent and mold repellent, making it hygienic to use.
