Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a floor covering that can be easily carried.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A mat as one of floor coverings is a convenient one that can be rolled up into a tubular shape to be stored or carried, and can be spread on the floor surface or the like as needed.
It is especially useful for sunbathing on the veranda, and when you lay a mat on the floor so that your body does not hurt and lie on it, you will feel uncomfortable and comfortable.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, if the mat is spread, wrinkles tend to be present in some places and it is uncomfortable to use.
When the wind blows or the body is moved, there is the inconvenience that it shifts. In addition, when carrying it, it was necessary to wind it to make it compact.

Therefore, the present invention solves the above inconvenience by providing a floor covering which is comfortable to use, can be spread in a stable state, and which is compact and hassle-free.

[0005]

According to the floor covering of the present invention, a plurality of flat plates are arranged in a line and connected by a hinge to form a foldable substrate, and the surface of the substrate is covered with a mat and a row of mats is provided. It is characterized in that both ends in the direction are folded back and fixed to both ends of the back surface in the one row direction of the substrate. Further, the length of the ridge in the one row direction may be slightly shorter than the length of the substrate. Furthermore, a soft cushion member may be fixed to the surface of the flat plate.

[0006]

[Operation] The garment itself is lightweight and unstable,
It can be stabilized by mounting it on a heavy substrate. In addition, the board can be folded into a compact state.

Since the length of the garment in the one row direction is slightly shorter than that of the board, if the folded board is unfolded into a single plate, the garment is spread on the board while being appropriately pulled in the one row direction. Can be expanded.

EXAMPLE A floor covering 1 of the present invention is mainly composed of a garment 2 and a foldable substrate 3, as shown in FIGS. The substrate 3 is a single-sided adhesive tape in which two flat plates 4 and 4 made of synthetic resin, plywood, etc. are arranged side by side in a row, and the right and left flat plates 4 and 4 serve as hinges on the left edge and the right edge of the surface. 5 is pasted and connected, and is foldable on the valley side. The front surface of the substrate 3 is covered with the ridge 2, the left and right end portions of the ridge 2 are folded back to the left and right end portions of the back surface of the substrate 3 and fixed by the fixtures 6, and the lateral length of the ridge 2 is that of the substrate 3. It is a little shorter than. In addition, the size of the floor covering 1 is preferably about one tatami mat so as not to hinder carrying.

The floor covering 10 of FIG. 3 is another embodiment, and is different from the embodiment of FIG. 1 in that three flat plates 4, 4, 4 are used.
Is connected by the hinges 5 and 5 to form the substrate 3.

The floor covering 20 of FIG. 4 is also another embodiment. The difference from the above-mentioned embodiment is that the cushion members 7 such as sponges are adhered and fixed to the surface of each flat plate 4 with an adhesive. is there. In addition, the space | interval of the code | symbol 8 is provided in order to be able to fold the floor covering 20 to the valley side.

As an effective method of utilizing this floor covering,
For example, we usually stack and store many floor coverings,
If necessary, it is possible to lay a floor covering on a part of the floor of a Western-style room to create a Japanese-style atmosphere in a part of the room. In addition, if you bring it with you when attending nursing at the hospital, you can make it compact so that you do not have to worry about the storage place and you can use it just by spreading it on the floor, so you can immediately lie down and get tired. it can. Furthermore, if the floor covering is laid on the bottom of the casket, it looks like a real tatami mat and the weight is lighter than the real tatami mat, so the casket is easy to carry.

The floor covering of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, although the length of the chin 2 is shorter than that of the substrate 3 in the above embodiment, it may be about the same as that of the substrate 3. Further, a slip stopper such as rubber may be provided on the entire back surface of each flat plate 4 in order to further improve the fixing property. Further hinge 5
May be a hinge made of metal or resin. Alternatively, the substrate 3 may be formed by connecting four or more flat plates 4.

[0013]

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The floor covering of the present invention can be used in a comfortable and comfortable condition by spreading a folded substrate, and it is stable due to the weight of the substrate. Therefore, even if the body is slightly moved, it does not shift, and when it is carried and stored, it can be made into a compact state simply by folding, which is very convenient.

When the length of the garment in the direction of one row is slightly shorter than that of the substrate (claim 2), the garment can be appropriately tensioned simply by spreading the folded substrate. The wrinkle does not occur, and the comfort is further improved.

Further, when the cushion member is fixed to the flat plate surface (claim 3), the sitting comfort and the sleeping comfort are improved, and when it is used on a cold day when the bottom is cold, it also has a heat retaining effect of substantially blocking cold air. Since the floor covering has a simple structure, it has an advantage that it can be easily manufactured.
