Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] An anti-slip part that can exert an anti-slip effect is provided on the entire floor-contacting part of the bath mat. [Structure] A polyethylene foam having a large number of holes is fused to the floor-contacting portion of a mat body of a bath mat made of polyethylene foam. Alternatively, it is characterized in that the polyethylene acetate having a large number of holes is fused after the vinyl acetate copolymer film is fused on the floor contact side.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a bath mat made of polyethylene foam.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Many bath mats using polyethylene foam are commercially available because of their advantages such as light weight, water resistance, cushioning effect, and low cost. However, when it is used in slippery places such as the floor of a bathroom, it has the drawbacks of being lightweight and being prone to slipping and accidents due to the nature of polyethylene foam. For this reason, a structure has been proposed in which suction cups are attached to several places on the back of the mat.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The structure in which the suction cup is attached to the back surface of the mat has a complicated attachment structure of the suction cup, is expensive, and is insufficient as a slip stopper for the entire floor contact portion of the mat. In view of such circumstances, the present invention aims to provide a new bath mat that can exhibit a non-slip effect on the entire floor-contacting part of the bath mat using polyethylene foam.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In this invention, a polyethylene foam having a large number of holes is fused to the floor-contacting portion of a mat body of a bath mat made of polyethylene foam. Alternatively, a polyethylene foam having a large number of holes formed after fusing a vinyl acetate copolymer film on the floor contact side is fused.

[0005]

[Action]

 In the bath mat according to the present invention, when a load is applied to the mat surface, the elasticity of the polyethylene foam pushes out the air inside the holes provided in the floor-contacting part, and the holes become a pseudo-sucker shape, thus Prevent slippage. Further, if the vinyl acetate copolymer film is fused on the floor contact side, a further anti-slip effect is exhibited.

【Example】

 FIG. 1 is a bottom view of one embodiment of the present invention seen from the back side, in which two mating portions having a plurality of holes 3 on the back side of a mat body 1 made of polyethylene foam are fused. There is. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. 1, and 1-3 is the same as FIG. FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing another embodiment, 1-3 is the same as FIG. 1, and 4 is a vinyl acetate copolymer film.

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, the bath mat of the present invention has a large number of holes in the floor contacting part, so that the air in the holes is pushed out by applying a load on the mat surface, and the holes are suspicious suckers. To prevent slipping on the floor. In addition, a polyethylene foam, which was fused with a vinyl acetate copolymer film first, was punched and then fused to the floor-contacting side of the mat body, so that the slip resistance of the vinyl acetate copolymer and the pseudo sucker for the hole Due to the effect, a further anti-slip effect is exhibited.
