Automobile mat manufacturing device and automobile mat manufacturing method using this device

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE: To make possible the formation of concaves and convexes on the front/reverse side of a foot and make unnecessary the winding/rewinding operation of a resin layer providing an embossing roll which can be turned normally and reversed and a removable heater. CONSTITUTION: A heater 17 is installed on the side of a roll B and a resin layer 5 is cooled by means of a cooling roll 9 through the intermediary of a roll 9A. The cooled resin layer 5 is caused to pass sequentially through rolls 9B, 9C, 9D and 9E. At the position of roll 9B, the surface of a foamed layer 5B is heated and softened by means of a heater 17. The foamed layer 5B obtained by heating/softening the resin layer 5 through a reversible embossing roll 8 is provided with an uneven surface. The resin layer 5 is taken out through the intermediary of a roll 3A, cut to a prearranged size. Then the skin 5A of the resin layer 5 is heated and softened and vacuum-formed into a mat 25 with an uneven surface on the front and reverse side. COPYRIGHT: (C)1981,JPO&Japio
