[The purpose of the device] [Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a tatami mat used for a floor of a house or the like.

[0002]

[Prior art and problems to be solved]

 The Japanese archipelago is long and slender and its climate is susceptible to the influence of the ocean, and there are rainy seasons and long autumn rains at the transition of the climate. By the way.

It is well known that wood, soil, paper and the like have been mainly used in Japan as a material for buildings such as houses in such an environment since ancient times. It is also well known that buildings using so-called conventional construction methods, which mainly use such materials, still occupy a large proportion of the weight of buildings in spite of the remarkable progress of new building materials in recent years. It is as it is.

Since all the building materials as described above are excellent in moisture absorption function, in a place with seasonally high humidity environment such as Japan, the building itself absorbs moisture when it is high humidity and releases moisture when it is dry. Therefore, there is a function to prevent deterioration of living comfort and prevent adverse effects on stored items such as closets without the use of special dehumidifying means.

By the way, even if the surrounding pillars, walls, sliding doors, shoji screens, ceilings, etc. are constructed of such a material in a house or the like, it cannot be said that the conventional tatami mat is still insufficient. It is often the case that when I walk on a tatami mat, such as during the rainy season, my feet feel sticky and the user feels uncomfortable.

In order to deal with such a problem, it has been proposed to put charcoal under the floor or sprinkle charcoal granules under the tatami mat, which has a certain effect on moisture absorption and odor absorption. However, in the case of the former, even if it is effective in absorbing moisture and odor under the floor, the effect on the room above it is greatly diminished. However, since it is unavoidable that the presence of charcoal granules causes significant damage to cleaning during cleaning, it is far from widespread practical application.

The present invention has been made to cope with such a situation, and a fine-grained charcoal layer is arranged in a well-known tatami floor made of straw to form a tatami mat. The purpose is to improve the living comfort of the room by its hygroscopic and odor absorbing properties.

[0008]

[Constitution of device] [Technical means for solving the problem and its operation]

 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is characterized in that a charcoal layer made of granular charcoal is arranged between two tatami floors made of straw, and a tatami mat is attached to one surface of the charcoal layer. It is a tatami mat.

With such a structure, it is possible to obtain a tatami mat that can effectively remove indoor moisture and malodor without changing its handling in the same manner as a known tatami mat.

[0010]

[Explanation of the embodiment]

 FIG. 1 is a side sectional view of a tatami mat showing an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, a tatami mat floor formed by straw-strapping is divided into upper and lower parts 1 and 2, and a layer 3 of charcoal granules formed in the form of fine particles is arranged in the middle. The tatami mat 4 is fixed on this surface to form a tatami mat.

In the production, on the thin tatami floor 2, charcoal granules having a particle diameter of about 0.5 to 3 mm are arranged in a thickness of about 1 cm, and the floor 1 is placed on the charcoal granules. Temporarily fix them so that they do not move with each other, and further wind and bond an appropriate tape around them, and then attach tatami mat 4 to complete the tatami mat.

After the tatami mat 4 is attached, the tatami mat 4 and the floors 1 and 2 are sufficiently integrated with each other and the charcoal layer 3 is firmly held, and hence the mat can be handled in the same manner as a known tatami mat thereafter.

[0013]

[Effect of device]

 Since the tatami according to the present invention has the configuration described above, it can be handled in the same manner as a known tatami, and a large amount of charcoal can be placed inside the tatami, relatively close to the indoor space. As a result, the charcoal's moisture absorption and odor absorption characteristics can be fully utilized to achieve a remarkable effect in removing indoor moisture and odors.
