- the mat support part 100 is designed for supporting the bottom of the mat and preventing the mat from being hung down and wound around a rotating brush roll 500, and comprises the connecting member 110 displaced at the top ends of the main body 10, and a plurality of steel wires 120 in spaced relation to one another at a predetermined interval.
- the steel wires 120 can be connected to the connecting member 110 as shown in Fig. 1, or can be designed to be directly connected into grooved portions formed at the inner walls of the main body 10 without providing the connecting member 110.
- a spring can mounted to supply a proper amount of elasticity to the mat to thereby make the mat be easily conveyed into the apparatus by close contact with the mat conveying part 200.
- a wire or a piano wire as the replacement of the steel wires 120.
- another configuration that formed is a plane table having longitudinal holes through which the high-powered liquid and air to be sprayed upward come in direct contact with the mat.
- the mat support part 100 prevents the mat from being hung down and makes the bottom of the mat be exposed, and thus such a structure by the arrangement of the strong wires 120 allows the liquid and air supplied from the high- powered liquid spray part 400 and the high-powered air spray part 600 to come in direct contact with the mat.
- the mat conveying part 200 comprises two rollers 210 and 220 spaced at a predetermined interval, the conveyor belt 230 covering around the rollers 210 and 220, and the motor 710 for driving the rollers 210 and 220.
- rollers 210 and 220 At both ends of the rollers 210 and 220, shafts 211 and 221 are projected, on which bearings 212 and 222 are mounted.
- a sprocket 240 is connected to any one shaft and is engaged with a driving sprocket 720 disposed at one end of the motor 710 by a chain belt 330.
- Projections 231 are repeatedly formed on the surface of the conveyor belt 230 and make the conveying of the mat easier by increasing the frictional force.
- the bearings 212 and 222 are connected to the main body 10 to support the rollers 210 and 220.
- support rollers 112 and 122 can be closely mounted at the bottom of the rollers 210 and 220 of the mat conveying part 200. At this time, the support rollers 112 and 122 may be mounted at the bottom of the mat support part 100.
- Mat cleaning means for cleaning the mat which is disposed at the bottom of the mat support part 100, comprises the high-powered liquid spray part 400, the rotating brush roll 500 and the high-powered air spray part 600.
- the rotating brush roll 500 is an element to assist the cleaning action on the mat.
- the high-powered liquid spray part 400 comprises a liquid tube 410 having a liquid opening 411, and a pump 420 for allowing a high-powered water passing through the liquid tube 410 to be sprayed onto the bottom of the mat.
- the pump 420 and the liquid tube 410 are connected to a water supply tube 430, and the pump 420 allows a detergent supplied from a detergent tank 440 through a detergent supply tube 441 to be sprayed onto the mat.
- the liquid tube 410 is disposed at an angle of about 30appro ⁇ riate to removing the contaminations.
- the detergent is used for removing stains and sanitizing bacterium.
- the high-powered air spray part 600 comprises an air tube 611 having an air opening 610 for directing a high-powered spray of air onto the mat, and a high- powered air generator 620, connected to the air tube 611, for generating the high- powered spray of air.
