Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a sealing implement for sealing by affixing a tag such as a brand label, price tag, material explanation, or handling instructions to a product such as a garment, shoes, or bag, and more particularly it relates to a sealing implement capable of performing an operation of smoothly affixing a tag when the above-noted tag is set into a special attachment apparatus (gun).
- Various sealing implements have been proposed in the past for the general bundling of articles such as garments, women's boots, sandals, and bags and shoes, or for affixing to such products a brand label, price tag or the like.
- For example, such an implement can have a configuration formed by a filament forming a loop that is passed through a tag, an insertion head part formed on one end the filament and a socket part having an insertion hole for the purpose of passing the insertion head part, provided on the other end of the filament. A plurality of sealing implements are temporarily attached to two mutually parallel connection bars so as to enable removal therefrom.
- The sealing implement can be, for example, integrally formed of a synthetic resin, and in particular the filament part thereof is drawn and exhibits extremely high strength with respect to pulling tension.
- When the insertion head part is inserted through a narrow part of the socket part, a hook acting as an engaging piece provided in proximity to the insertion hole opens, so that the neck part of the insertion head part is irreversibly held within the socket part, thereby completing the sealing, in a condition in which the label is affixed with the implement forming a loop.
- In the past, such sealing implements were loaded into a special ejecting apparatus (attachment gun), a lever thereof being pulled, thereby enabling use chiefly in bundling of such items as boots, sandals, and shoes, and also in fixing of a price tag, or a tag T having instructions for use of the product to the product.
- Additionally, there was the problem that, when loading the sealing implements into the attachment gun a force acting so as to return the top end of the implement caused to an original condition so that a distance formed between the two connecting bars parallely arranged to each other, would be expanded outwardly.
- As a result, not only did the attachment gun not operate normally, resulting in faulty attachment, that is a condition in which an insertion head part could not correctly be engaged into the socket part, but also a sealing implement could become jammed inside the attachment gun, thereby requiring that the sealing implement be removed therefrom and reloaded, this representing an extra work step.
- To solve the above-noted problem, there is a proposal of disposing a stopping member having a stopping ring at an end of the sealing implement, so that the sealing implement is held in the attachment gun in a curved condition.
- With a sealing implement of the past as described above, however, when attaching a stopping ring to an opposite connection bar, for example, it was necessary to hold the sealing implement with a hand in the curved condition, and to grab the stopping ring with the other hand and fix it to the connection bar, and when holding it by the stopping member in the curved condition, it is difficult to insert the stopping ring into the connection bar, thereby causing a worsening of efficiency.
- Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a sealing implement which improves the ease of performing the task of loading into a special attachment apparatus (gun), which maintains the proper direction of the insertion head part at all times, and which prevents jams.
- To achieve the above-noted objects, the present invention adopts the following base technical constitution.
- Specifically, the present invention is a sealing implement having a plurality of single sealing implements having a flexible filament part, an insertion head part having an appropriate engaging part provided on one end part of the filament part, and a socket part having a hole for the purpose of irreversibly inserting the insertion head part provided on the other end of the filament, the arrangement of the plurality of single sealing implements being made so that the filament parts thereof are mutually parallel and adjacent, each of the plurality of insertion head parts or a portion proximity thereto and socket parts or a portion proximity thereto being caused to be connected to separately provided connection bar parts.
- A feature of the present invention is that a filament part with a stopping ring that mates with a part of the other connection bar is mounted on at least one part of one of a connection bar, and that a grabbing piece is formed on the stopping ring.
- Because to solve the problem of the prior art described above a filament part with a stopping ring is mounted to a part of a connection bar and a grabbing piece is formed on the stopping ring, a sealing implement according to the present invention improves the work efficiency of the task of setting the implements into a shooting gun.

- Specifically, Fig. 1 is a front view showing an embodiment of a sealing implement according to the present invention, and Fig. 2 is a partial enlarged side view showing the same sealing implement.
- In these drawings, a plurality of sealing implements 10 each having a
flexible filament part 12, aninsertion head 13 having an appropriate engaging part, and provided on one end of thefilament part 12, and asocket part 15 having aninsertion hole 14 for irreversible passing of theinsertion head part 13, and provided on the other end of thefilament part 12 are arranged so that thefilament parts 12 thereof are mutually adjacent and parallel, with each of the plurality ofinsertion head parts 13 or a portion proximity thereto andsocket parts 15 or a portion proximity thereto, being caused to be connected to separately providedconnection bar parts 11 and 11', afilament part 12a having a stoppingring 19 being mounted to a part of aconnection bar 11, and a grabbingpiece 20 being formed on the stoppingring 19. - The sealing implement 10 according to the present invention is integrally formed of a synthetic resin, such as the usual Nylon, polypropylene, or polyester, such as was the case with sealing implements of the past.
- By way of further description of a first embodiment of the
sealing implement 10, referring to Fig. 1, the basic configuration of the sealing implement 10 according to the present invention is substantially the same as a sealing implement of the past, and additionally has formed afilament part 12a with astopping ring 19 on an end (top end) of theconnection bar 11, and a grabbingpiece 20 formed on this stoppingring 19. - The stopping
ring 19 has an inner diameter formed so as to enable insertion of theconnection bar part 11. - Within the
hole part 19a provided on thestopping ring 19 is formed aprotrusion 19b that engages with a cutout formed on the connection bar part 11 (refer to Fig. 3). - The grabbing
piece 20 mounted to the stoppingring 19 has the shape of a flat tongue, so as to make it easy to grab by the fingers. - Additionally, the center axis line of the
stopping ring 19 is formed so as to be in the perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of thefilament part 12a or in parallel with a plane formed by a plurality offilaments 12 of each one of the implements, each being uniformly arranged to each other. - The length of the
filament part 12a is formed so as to be substantially 1/2 that of thefilament part 12, An un-drawn filament can be used as thefilament part 12a. - A
cutout 16 such as shown in Fig. 2 is formed on a corresponding position of theconnection bar part 11, so that it is difficult to pull out a stoppingring 19 once it has been inserted. The corresponding position at which is formed thecutout 16 is ideally a position on theconnection bar part 11 which is on the outside when thefilament part 12 is bent in a U-shape. - In this embodiment of the present invention, the
cutout 16 is made as a V-shape having an elevation angle of 30 ° and depression angle of 45 ° , so that it has a V-shape having an angle-of 75° when theconnection bar part 11 is in the vertical position. - The
cutout 16 is not restricted to this angle, and can be made any angle between 30 ° and 90° . - An
engaging part 17 is formed in theinsertion hole 14 of thesocket part 15, to enable engagement with anengaging part 13a having a narrowed diameter at a step on part of theinsertion head part 13. Theengaging part 17 is formed so as to protrude and be deformable into theinsertion hole 14. - The sealing
implements 10 are temporarily held to theconnection bars 11 so that they are mutually parallel. Therefore, after loading into an attachment gun, by merely pulling alever 18a, it is easy for one sealing implement at a time to become separated and shot out, thereby enabling mounting of labels and the like. - Fig. 4 is a plan view showing the condition of use of a sealing implement of the present invention.
- What is shown in this drawing is the condition in which, to hold the
sealing implement 10 in the curved condition, the grabbingpiece 20 is grabbed by the fingers and the stoppingring 19 is inserted into the head part of theconnection bar part 11 engaging with thesocket part 15. - Although the task of inserting the
small stopping ring 19 into the head part of theconnection bar part 11, because the grabbingpiece 20 is grabbed when this task is performed, the ease of the task is improved compared with the past. - Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing the condition in which a sealing implement 10 according to the present invention is loaded into a special attachment apparatus (gun).
- In this condition, the
attachment gun 18 has formed in it avertical groove 21 into which theconnection bar parts 11 are inserted. For example, theconnection bar part 11 linked to asocket part 15 of thesealing implement 10 is inserted into thevertical groove 21, and theconnection bar 11 linked to theinsertion head part 13 is inserted into thevertical groove 22. - A shooting pin (not shown in the drawing) is arranged in a sideways direction of the
vertical groove 22, this pin being driven by thelever 18a of theshooting apparatus 18, theinsertion head part 13 being separated from the linking part lla of theconnection bar part 11, and pushed out and frontward, along a cylindricallyshaped guide pin 24. - The
socket 15 supported by theconnection bar part 11 is inserted into thevertical groove 22 is separated by a push-out belt (not shown in the drawing) from theconnection bar part 11, and is pushed out and frontward one by one, along a curvedsocket part guide 26. - The
socket part 15 that is pushed out along thesocket part guide 26 is changed by 90 ° so that there is mating with theinsertion head part 13 pushed out by the push-out pin (not shown in the drawing) at theinsertion hole 14. - The inside of the
socket part guide 26 is formed in the shape of a cylinder, so as to enable a change of 90 ° in direction, and to enable forward movement of the push-out belt while bending. - The configuration is such that the timing at which the end of the push-out belt reaches the tip end of the
socket part guide 26 coincides with the timing at which the push out pin reaches the end of thesocket part guide 26. By doing this, the sealingimplement 10 can be used to perform continuous successive mounting of labels on products, for example. - In another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Fig. 6, the center axis of the
hole part 23a of thestopping ring 23 is formed so as to be in parallel with the longitudinal direction of theconnection bar part 11. - The flat surface of the grabbing
piece 20 is also disposed so as to be perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of theconnection bar part 11. - In the case of the above-noted configuration, after the sealing
implement 10 is bent, it is easy to insert the stoppingring 23 into theconnection bar part 11. This is because the axis line of theconnection bar part 11 coincides with the center axis line of thehole part 23a of thestopping ring 23. - Fig. 7 is an enlarged side view showing the main part of another embodiment of a
connection bar part 11 used in a sealing implement according to the present invention. - In this example, a
protrusion 27 for preventing pull-off is formed near the upper end part of theconnection bar part 11. - The corresponding position at which the
protrusion 27 is formed is, ideally a position on theconnection bar part 11 which is on the outside when thefilament part 12 is bent into a U-shape. - If this configuration is adopted, when the stopping
ring 19 is inserted into theconnection bar part 11, because of the presence of theprotrusion 27, it is difficult for the stoppingring 19 to be pulled off once it is inserted. - Therefore, when the sealing implement is loaded into the
attachment apparatus 18 in the curved condition, even should external force be applied, there is no danger of pulling off of the engagingpart stopping ring 19. - Fig. 8 is a side view of the main part of a sealing implement, showing another embodiment having a separately provided stopping member. In this configuration, the sealing implement has a separately provided stopping member having stopping
rings connection bar part 11 into both ends of afilament 28 that is shorter than theseparate filament part 12. - A grabbing
piece 31 is mounted on the side of the stoppingring 29 opposite thefilament 28. - The grabbing
piece 31 has a flat shape so as to make it easy to grab by the fingers. - With the above-noted configuration, it is possible to use a single stopping member for a plurality of sealing implements.
- The grabbing
piece 20 used in the sealing implement according to the present invention can be a flat semicircle, and can alternately be tongue-shaped, elliptical, a sheet, or rectangular. Additionally, it is desirable that the socket part be made with a size that provides ease of use and a small outer appearance. - By adopting the constitution described above, using the present invention, when loading the sealing implements into a shooting apparatus, it is possible to hold the sealing implement in the curved condition by the stopper ring and the filament part, the result being that there is no danger of disturbing the direction of the insertion head part, which could cause jamming.
- Additionally, when the sealing implement is caused to curve, because the grabbing piece is grabbed by the fingers and the stopping ring is inserted into the head part of the connection bar part, the troublesome task of inserting a small stopping ring into the head part of the connection bar part is made easy, in comparison with the past.
