Abstract

The invention relates to a mat ( 1 ), in particular a self-adhesive mat ( 1 ), which is at least partially formed from an elastically deformable material. According to the invention, the mat ( 1 ) comprises at least one recess ( 2 ), wherein in the recess ( 2 ) a receiving device ( 3 ) is positioned which is at least partially composed of a more solid material than the mat ( 1 ).

Claims (35)

1. A self-adhesive mat, which is at least partially formed from an elastically deformable material, the self-adhesive mat having an upper surface and an opposite underside and comprising:

at least one recess formed in the upper surface of the mat; and

a receiving device, which is contained within the recess, is located at or below the upper surface of the mat and at least partially composed of a material that is more solid material than the elastically deformable material,

wherein the receiving device comprises a twist fastener with a lock.

2. The self-adhesive mat according to claim 1 , wherein the elastic material comprises a food-grade material.

3. The self-adhesive mat according to claim 1 , wherein the underside of the mat is embodied to be smooth.

4. The self-adhesive mat according to claim 3 , wherein the underside of the mat is embodied across an entire area.

5. The self-adhesive mat according to claim 1 , further comprising an outer edge on the upper surface of the mat embodied in a raised manner.

6. The self-adhesive mat according to claim 1 , further comprising an outer edge of the mat that is beveled towards an inner region of the mat and in a direction towards the underside of the mat, wherein the outer edge surrounds the mat at least in sections.

7. The self-adhesive mat according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving device is at least partially formed from a food-grade thermoplastic.

8. The self-adhesive mat according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving device is positioned at an edge of the recess.

9. A set comprising:

the self-adhesive mat according to claim 1 ; and

an object that is removably secured in the receiving device.

10. The set according to claim 9 , wherein the object can be secured in the receiving device by twisting.

11. The set according to claim 9 , wherein the object is at least partially formed from a food-grade thermoplastic.

12. The set according to claim 9 , herein the object comprises an underside and a connecting piece located on the underside for connection to the receiving device.

13. The set according to claim 9 , wherein the object comprises at least one handle.

14. The set according to claim 9 , wherein the at least one handle is at least partially coated with silicone.

15. The set according to claim 9 , further comprising an intermediate layer arranged between the mat and the object.

16. The set according to claim 15 , wherein the object comprises on an underside and a connecting piece located on the underside for connection to the receiving device and the intermediate layer comprises a hole through which the connecting piece is guided.

17. The set according to claim 15 , wherein the intermediate layer is embodied as a bib with an openable neck cutout.

18. The self-adhesive mat according to claim 2 , wherein the food-grade material comprises at least one of a silicone and a thermoplastic elastomer.

19. The according to claim 9 , wherein the object comprises a bowl or a tray.

20. A mat, which is at least partially formed from an elastically deformable material, having an upper surface and an opposite underside and comprising:

at least one recess formed in and below the upper surface;

a receiving device, which is contained within the recess, is located at or below the upper surface of the mat and is at least partially composed of a material that is more solid material than the elastically deformable material,

wherein the elastically deformable material is cast around the receiving device, and

wherein the receiving device comprises a twist fastener with a lock.

21. A self-adhesive mat, which is at least partially formed from an elastically deformable material, having an upper surface and an opposite underside and comprising:

at least one recess formed in and below the upper surface; and

a receiving device, which is contained within the recess, is located at or below the upper surface of the mat and is at least partially composed of a material that is more solid material than the elastically deformable material,

wherein the elastically deformable material is cast around the receiving device,

wherein the mat is embodied across an entire area and the underside of the mat is smooth, and

wherein the receiving device comprises a twist fastener with a lock.
