Description

Functional mat having cooling function The present invention relates to a functional mat equipped with a cooling function, and more specifically, to a mat having a simple structure and a cooling function, which, if desired by the user, can be configured to have different physical properties in different parts of the mat by interconnecting a plurality of mat modules with different physical properties. Generally, conventional hot and cold water mats are used by arranging hoses for transferring a heat medium in a zigzag pattern on a base substrate of a certain size and circulating hot or cold water through the hoses. Existing hot and cold water mats of this structure had the problem that their structure became very complex because a device for continuously supplying hot or cold water to the hose had to be provided externally. Meanwhile, conventional cooling mats (cool sheets) have a structure in which a heat medium (refrigerant) is filled within a pocket-shaped sheet member, and such cooling sheets usually absorb the temperature of the atmosphere. The heat medium used to fill the above-mentioned cold water mat consists of a mixture of superabsorbent resin and water. Since the heat medium is filled inside the entire sheet member, when pressure is applied to the heat medium, a phenomenon may occur where it shifts to one side of the cold water mat (cool sheet). Consequently, the efficiency of the cold water mat decreases, and due to the lack of cushioning, it cannot function as a mattress and can only be used as a sheet placed on top of a mattress. FIG. 1 is a bottom perspective view showing the lower surface of a mat module according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a side view of a mat module according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a side view of a mat module according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a bottom perspective view showing the ventilation groove structure of a mat module according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a bottom perspective view showing the ventilation groove structure of a mat module according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is a drawing showing a mattress configured by connecting a plurality of mat modules according to one embodiment of the present invention. Preferred embodiments according to the present invention will be examined in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In describing the embodiments of the present invention, detailed descriptions of matters that are not directly related to the technical features of the present invention, matters obvious to those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains, and parts that may be applied redundantly in each embodiment will be omitted. Furthermore, the terms described below are defined in consideration of their functions in the present invention; since these may vary depending on the intentions or practices of the user or operator, their definitions should be based on the content throughout this specification describing the present invention. The mat according to the present invention is a mat equipped with a cooling function, and one or more mat modules (10), which are basic units, are prepared and used individually or interconnected. FIG. 1 is a bottom perspective view showing the lower surface of a mat module according to one embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the mat module (10) is made of an elastic material and has a plurality of through holes (11) formed to penetrate vertically. The above mat module (10) may be made of any elastic material such as silicone, rubber, or other synthetic resins, but it is most preferable to make it of SEBS (Styrene-Ethylene-Butylene-Styrene) material, which is environmentally friendly and suitable for medical use. The above through hole (11) may be formed throughout the entire mat module (10), or, although not illustrated, may be formed only in a desired part to partially adjust the strength of the mat, with the rest of the part blocked. In addition, the above-mentioned through hole (11) may be configured in various shapes such as circular or square, but it is preferable to configure it in a honeycomb-shaped pattern, which is a stable structure. Furthermore, the size (diameter) and height of the above-mentioned through hole (11) may be formed differently for each part of the mat module (10) so that the mat module (10) has different physical properties for each part. A plurality of refrigerant hoses (30) are arranged at regular intervals in the mat module (10). The refrigerant hose (30) is a hose of a predetermined length that contains and seals refrigerant inside. There are no specific restrictions on the material, such as synthetic resin or metal, but it is preferable to use a synthetic resin material that can be bent so that the user does not feel hardness when lying down, sitting, or standing on the mat module (10).
