Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a disposable mat that absorbs urine leaking out of the toilet bowl.

[Prior Art] Various disposable mats for toilets have been proposed in the past, but most of them are made of expensive materials such as cotton or non-woven fabrics so as to have good urine absorption.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] However, in order to use a disposable type of pine, the manufacturing cost and selling price must be low to find practical value. Further, even if the mat is a disposable type, the desired purpose cannot be achieved if the mat installation position is easily shifted, but since it is a disposable type, it is necessary to be able to easily remove it.

[Means for solving the problem] Therefore, the present invention was made with the purpose of providing a mat that can solve the problem, and the structure is made of recycled cardboard cut to a predetermined size. Let this be matte material 1, and this material 1
Tapered small holes 1b are made on the entire surface of the material 1 at appropriate pitches to the extent that they do not penetrate into the back surface, and a waterproof layer 1c is formed by applying paint on the back surface of the material 1, and a hot-melt adhesive is applied to several places on both sides and the front. It is characterized by providing a bonding surface 2 made of an adhesive and a release paper 3 covering the bonding surface 2.

[Function] The recycled cardboard used as the mat material 1 is commercially available at low cost, has extremely good water absorbency, and is also durable. Furthermore, since the hot melt adhesive used as the material for the adhesive surface has good tackiness, by providing the adhesive surface 2 at several places on the front and both sides, slipping can be prevented and removal can be facilitated.

[Example] Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

Fig. 1 is a plan view of an example of the mat of the present invention, and Fig. 2 is a back view thereof, where 1 is the mat material made of recycled cardboard, and 1a is the so-called relief part attached to the toilet bowl. It is formed into a matte body that is approximately B4 size. There are two types of mat material 1: cardboard whose surface is formed in a rough draft pattern, and cardboard which is flat. The matte material 1 made of cardboard with a draft pattern formed thereon is lightweight and therefore inexpensive, and also has peaks 1d and valleys 1 on its surface.
It is preferable because it has good ventilation and quick drying properties because of the formation of E, and also has a high water absorption rate due to its large surface area. Of course, flat ones are also inexpensive and have good water absorption. In both cases, the thickness of the recycled cardboard is preferably 2 to 3 mm or more.

The top surface of the pine body is designed to make it less noticeable when the pine body gets wet with urine and becomes darkish.
Colors based on slightly dark colors such as dark green and dark blue, or floral patterns based on these colors are formed using water-soluble paint to create a clean look.

In addition, the pine material 1 made of the above-mentioned cardboard 1
Here, taper holes 1b with a diameter of about 2 mm are bored on the front surface at a pitch of 10 mm to the extent that they do not penetrate into the back surface to further increase the water absorption rate. Furthermore,
On the back side of the mat material 1, a waterproof layer 1c is formed by applying paint to prevent absorbed urine from penetrating into the back side.

Note that on the back side of the mat material 1, a waterproof layer 1c is formed by applying paint, so the taper hole 1
Even if the holes b penetrate to some extent into the back surface of the pine material, the waterproof layer 1c closes the holes.

2 is the mat body 1 using hot melt adhesive.
This is a spot-like adhesive surface formed on the back surface of the mat material 1, and an inexpensive and highly adhesive hot melt adhesive is provided as the adhesive surface 2 at several places from the front to both sides on the back surface of the mat material 1.

This was done in consideration of the fact that when elderly people or people with physical disabilities took their first step into the toilet room from the hallway, etc., the mats often slipped and caused them to fall or get injured. In contrast, considering that the entrance to the toilet room is on the left, right, or front side, adhesive surfaces 2 are provided at several places on both sides and the front of the back of the mat to prevent users from slipping when entering the toilet room. It's for a reason.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a circular release paper to be placed over the adhesive surface 2. In addition to the planar shape shown in FIG. , is suitable when the adhesive surface is formed into an elongated shape. When in use, the release paper 3 is peeled off and the mat is adhesively fixed onto a floor or the like using the adhesive surface 2.

Figure 3 is an enlarged partial cross-sectional view of the mat of the present invention.
In this figure, 1b is the diameter 2 which is set at 10mm pitch.
It is a small tapered hole about mm in size. Furthermore, this hole 1b
Since the mat material is recycled cardboard, even if the hole is 2 mm in diameter, the hole will actually be about 1 to 1.5 mm. Figures 4 and 5 show the above pine material 1.
FIG. 4 is a partially enlarged cross-sectional view of recycled cardboard used for this purpose. The material shown in FIG. 4 has a striped pattern with peaks 1d and valleys 1e, and the material shown in FIG. 5 is a flat material.

The mat material of the present invention is made by dismantling a waste jute bag, loosening its fibers, forming the fibers into a mat shape with a thickness of about 5 mm by needle punching, and lining the back side with cheesecloth. Can be done. This matte material also has good water absorbency and is inexpensive due to the use of waste bags, so if it is used as a substitute for the matte material made of recycled cardboard, almost the same effect can be obtained.

[Effects] The present invention is as described above, and the mat main body is formed from a material that is highly absorbent, inexpensive, and easily available, such as recycled cardboard, and furthermore,
The top surface of this body is provided with many tapered small holes to enhance the absorbency of the mat body, and the top surface is also coated with colored paper to make it easier to feel clean. , suitable as a disposable mat.

In addition, since the adhesive surface 2 uses a hot melt adhesive, it can be easily applied and can be used immediately after application. This prevents slipping when taking the first step into the toilet room from the hallway, etc., and prevents elderly people and people with physical disabilities from falling and injuring themselves when entering the toilet room. It has an excellent fastening effect and leaves a thin trace of adhesive on the floor, making it possible to attach and detach the mat of the present invention in a fixed position.

The present invention is as described above, and since the disposable mat is made of inexpensive and easily available materials,
It is economical, hygienic, and easy to use.
