Abstract
A nonslip member in which a large number of nonslip convexes are fixed to an upper surface of a base fabric performing an anchoring action, and the nonslip convexes are made of rubber. By engaging a male mold and a female mold with each other, a large number of small pieces coincident to a shape of through holes of the female mold are punched out from a plate-like material. By pressurizing and heating each small piece between a punching convex and a mounting base while engaging the male mold and the female mold with each other, the small piece is bridged and fixed to the base fabric to serve as a nonslip convex.
Claims3
A fabric having a nonslip surface comprising:
- a base fabric having a first surface and a second surface,
- wherein the base fabric is a fabric selected from a group consisting of woven fabric, knitted fabric and nonwoven fabric
- a pattern of a plurality of vulcanized rubber non-slip protuberances projecting from the first surface and affixed thereto and embedded in the base fabric,
- wherein each of the vulcanized rubber non-slip protuberances further comprises a peripheral vulcanized rubber rim surrounding the protuberance that is integrally formed therewith, and which is also affixed to the first surface and embedded in the base fabric.
