Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a connection structure for a base for a shoe wipe mat.

BACKGROUND ART Shoe wipe mats have been widely used at the entrances of buildings, offices, shops, etc.

These shoe wipe mats come in a variety of structures, but in most cases they consist of a base made of synthetic rubber, etc., and a rug that is removably attached to the base using velvet fasteners. Become.

With shoe cleaning mats constructed in this manner, when the rug becomes soiled, it is removed from the base, washed, and then fixed to the base again for use.

In such cases, the washed rug will inevitably shrink,
Experimental results usually show a contraction of several centimeters.

When the rug shrinks in this way, the base side does not shrink, so there is a difference between the length of the rug and the length of the base, resulting in a disadvantage in appearance.

The present invention was made in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional method, and the present invention is based on a joint structure of the base for a shoe wipe mat that is configured so that the length of the base can be adjusted according to the shrinkage of the rug. This is what we provide.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, what is designated as a whole by the reference numeral 1 is a shoe-peeling mat, which consists of two bases 2 and 3 connected by a connection structure as described later, a velvet fastener 4 attached to the top surface of the bases, and a velvet fastener 4 attached to the back surface of the bases 2 and 3. A rug 6 is immovably fixed on the bases 2 and 3 by fastening velvet fasteners 5 attached thereto.

The above-mentioned connection structure is as shown in FIG. 2 and subsequent figures.

That is, the connection structure according to the present invention includes the connection plate 7 and the connection piece 8.
, 9, the connecting plate 7 and the connecting pieces 8, 9 are formed with a length approximately equal to the width of the bases 2, 3 to be connected, and the connecting pieces 8, 9 have exactly the same structure. There is.

The connection plate designated by reference numeral 7 has a flat T-shape, has a flat upper surface, and has a protrusion 10 formed on its lower surface over its entire length in the center.

Further, chevron-shaped protrusions 11 are provided on both side edges of the connecting plate 7 to project downward over the entire length thereof.

The cross-sectional shape of the protrusions 11, 11 is wide on the lower side and narrow on the upper side, and a groove is formed on the upper surface at a position corresponding to the center of the protrusion 11.11 over the entire length.
2.12 is formed.

On the other hand, each of the connecting pieces 8 and 9 has a protrusion 13 formed at the center of the upper surface thereof with a predetermined width over the entire length. A thin wall portion 14 is formed over the entire length.

And on the opposite side of the thin wall portion 14 with the protrusion 13 in between,
A dovetail-shaped inner groove 15 and an outer groove 16 are formed over the entire length and have a predetermined width.

In this embodiment, the connecting pieces 8, 9 are provided on the lower connecting edges of the bases 2, 3 over the entire width, as shown in FIG.
Recesses 2 a and 3 that accommodate tapered thin-walled portions 14 of
A is formed as a fillet, so that the lower surfaces of the bases 2 and 3 and the lower surfaces of the connecting pieces 8 and 9 are flush with each other.

The connection method of this embodiment configured as follows will be described.

Two connecting pieces 8 are inserted into recesses formed over the entire width of the lower connection side edges of the two bases 2 and 3 to be connected.
, 9 are fixed using a high frequency welder or the like.

In that case, the entire thin wall portion 14 of the connecting pieces 8, 9 is connected to the base 2,
3, the connection side edges of the bases 2 and 3 abut against the side edges of the protrusions 13 of the connection pieces 8 and 9, and the upper surfaces of the bases 2 and 3 and the protrusions 13 of the connection pieces 8 and 9 It will be almost flush with the top surface.

Connecting piece 8 of two bases 2 and 3 to which connecting pieces 8 and 9 are fixed
, 9 sides are facing each other, and the protrusion 10 is spaced apart, and the protrusion of the connecting plate 7 is placed in the desired concave strip 15, 16 of the two concave strips formed on both the connecting pieces 8, 9. The strips 11 are press-fitted from above.

Note that when the protrusions 11 are press-fitted into the four grooves 15 and 16, the protrusions 11 are elastically deformed at the grooves 12, and the grooves 1 of the protrusions 11 are
It is possible to facilitate attachment and detachment to and from the connectors 5 and 16, and to strengthen the fitted state.

In this case, the width of the connecting plate 7 is constant, but the distance between the bases 2 and 3 can be adjusted in three steps by selecting the positions of the grooves 15 and 16 on the connecting pieces 8 and 9.

In other words, as shown in FIG.
, 3 is minimum, and if one of the inner grooves 15 and the other outer groove 16 are selected as shown in FIG. 6, the distance between the bases 2 and 3 becomes relatively large. As shown in FIG. 7, if the grooves 16 and 16 on the outside of both bases are selected, the distance between the bases 2 and 3 is maximized.

Although the present embodiment has been described with the number of grooves being two each, it is of course possible to have three or more grooves, and in that case, the adjustment range will be even wider.

The rug 6 is placed on the base configured as described above and used as a shoe wipe mat.
, 3 female velvet fastener 4 affixed to the top surface of 3,
4 and female velvet fasteners 5, 5 stuck to the lower surface of the rug 6, the rug 6 is prevented from shifting or curling up on the base.

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, even when the rug shrinks, the length of the base can be adjusted in stages, so it can be freely adjusted according to the degree of shrinkage of the rug. It has an elegant appearance.

Further, since the connecting plate has the protruding ridge 10 on the lower surface, even if the distance between the bases becomes long, the protruding ridge 10 serves as a supporting member, and the connecting plate will not be crushed.

Furthermore, when the distance between the bases is large, the width of the space formed above the inner recess 15 is narrow, so even if it is pressed, it will not dent, and there will be no problem in using it, and it will not look like it is covered with a rug. There is no need to disturb the appearance.
