When the tip end section of the fiber bundle 3 is loosened under a state being pinched by the core materials 2, the constituent fibers 4 are prevented from being superposed with each other, and the brush- form structure 1 which is excellent in a bulky feeling can be obtained.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a brush-like structure,
In particular, the present invention relates to a brush-like structure that can be widely used for fishing and the like as an alternative to indoor and outdoor decorations and seaweeds, in addition to brushes.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a brush-like structure using flat synthetic fibers, a structure in which a predetermined number of flat synthetic fibers are bundled in a bundle between two metal wire core members and twisted up is used. Are known. This is used as a decorative body to be wound around a fence or the like for the purpose of improving the appearance, and the decorative effect can be enhanced by applying various colors to the synthetic fibers.

[0003]

However, in the brush-like structure having the above structure, as shown in FIG. 4, a state in which a predetermined number of synthetic fibers 10 are bundled is simply sandwiched between core materials 11. Therefore, the synthetic fiber 10 is
When tightened between 1 and 11, the uneven plane of the synthetic fiber 10 is oriented along the twisting direction (spiral direction) of the core material, and the uneven plane comes into contact with the core material 11 so that the shaft of the fiber bundle 12 is rotated. The spread in the direction is reduced.

As a result, there is a portion where the fiber density is low in the axial direction of the core material 11, which causes a problem that the brush-like structure 13 as a whole lacks a sense of volume, and the uneven plane is in a direction close to horizontal. The synthetic fiber 10 has its own weight, and when it is used outdoors, it also sags with the weight of rainwater and the like when used outdoors, resulting in a problem that only those with no apparent momentum are obtained. Since the uneven planes of the fiber 10 are all oriented in substantially the same direction, there are various problems as a decorative body, such as a problem that the color of the synthetic fiber 10 has no depth and a high-quality one cannot be obtained.

Further, there is a problem that the flat fibers cannot be used for other uses such as brushes because of their low stiffness.

Accordingly, the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems and provides a flat fiber that can be used for a wide range of uses in addition to a decorative body having a strong, luxurious and excellent appearance. It is an object to provide a brush-like structure used.

[0007]

Means for Solving the Problems To achieve the above object, a brush-like structure according to the present invention comprises twisting a core material while sequentially sandwiching a fiber bundle between a plurality of metal wire core materials. A fiber bundle is spirally implanted around a core material, and the fiber bundle is formed by twisting a plurality of flat synthetic fibers.

In other words, the present inventor, when using a fiber bundle obtained by twisting fibers, keeps the bundle state without falling apart even when sandwiched between core materials, and in this state, the fiber bundle tip By loosening the fibers, it is possible to obtain a brush-like structure with a sense of volume that spreads radially around the clamping point without overlapping the fibers, and because each fiber is in a twisted state, it is very It is strong and can be used for other purposes such as brushes because it has a strong waist and does not hang down even under the weight of rainwater etc. And completed the present invention.

Here, examples of the flat synthetic fibers include synthetic fibers having an elliptical or rectangular cross section. However, from the viewpoint of suppressing the bundles from falling apart when the twisted fiber bundle is sandwiched by the core material, it is desirable to use a fiber having a substantially rectangular cross section having edges.

As the synthetic fiber having a rectangular cross section, a synthetic resin sheet cut into a strip shape can be used. However, if the width is too wide, decorativeness is lacking. If the width is too narrow, the fiber itself is twisted. It is preferable that the fiber thickness is 350 to 2,000 denier and the ratio of the short side to the long side is in the range of 1: 3 to 1:10 because the fiber is hard to be applied.

As a material of the synthetic fiber, a general thermoplastic resin can be used.
In consideration of coloring properties and self-extinguishing properties, it is preferable to use polyvinylidene chloride resin.

The fiber bundle used in the present invention is obtained by bundling the above-mentioned synthetic fibers and twisting them. The number of synthetic fibers used in one bundle is preferably 6 or more. If the number is less than six, the brush-like structure lacks a sense of volume.

[0013] However, when a large number of synthetic fibers are twisted at a time in order to give a sense of volume, the twisting of one of the fibers becomes sweet, and it is difficult to obtain a strong fiber, There is a possibility that a wave cannot be formed and only a certain degree of color tone can be obtained.

Therefore, in the present invention, a fiber bundle having a structure in which a plurality of flat synthetic fibers are combined and ply-twisted together to form two primary fiber bundles and ply-twisted in a direction opposite to the ply-twist is applied. Can be adopted.

By using a fiber bundle having such a configuration, even when about eight synthetic fibers are used for the primary fiber bundle, it is possible to reduce the twist per fiber and to provide a high-quality deep color. Thus, it is possible to obtain a stiff fiber that does not hang down due to its own weight or the like.

Further, if the reverse twisting and the reverse twisting are performed in the opposite directions, the root portion sandwiched between the core materials can be made hard to be unraveled even if the tip portion of the fiber bundle is unraveled. However, it is possible to obtain a brush-like structure having a voluminous feel without causing fiber bundles to fall apart.

Furthermore, since the fibers after loosening have a straightened posture when viewed as a whole, a brush-like structure having a more voluminous feel can be obtained.

The number of twists applied to the synthetic fiber is 10
About 0 to 200 times / m is desirable. If the number of twists is less than 100 turns / m, the fiber strength does not improve much,
If the number of turns / m is exceeded, the strength of the fiber bundle becomes too large, and it becomes difficult to loosen.

Such a brush-like structure can be used not only as an indoor or outdoor decoration, but also as a substitute for a brush or seaweed for fishing and the like. For this fishery use, the brush-like structure is suspended from the floating island and floated in the sea, or planted on a base and submerged on the seabed, so that it can be used as a fish reef instead of seaweed. In addition, the brush-like structure according to the present invention is excellent in voluminous feel, so that fish can easily settle therein, and the seawater can be well passed and oxygen deficiency can be prevented.

In this case, the fiber strength is not always necessary as when used on the ground, and flexibility can be provided by adjusting the fiber material and the number of twists according to the characteristics of the fish. It is. If a wire made of titanium is used as the core material, it will not be rusted by seawater and can be used for a long time.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an enlarged view of a main part showing an embodiment of a brush-like structure according to the present invention. The brush-like structure 1 includes two metal wire cores 2 and cores 2 and 2.
And a fiber bundle 3 sequentially inserted therebetween, and has a structure in which the synthetic fibers 4 are sandwiched between the cores 2 by twisting the cores 2. The brush-like structure 1 in the figure shows a state in which a single fiber bundle 3 is sandwiched between core materials 2.

FIG. 2 is an exploded view showing the structure of the fiber bundle in FIG. This fiber bundle 3 is composed of two primary fiber bundles 5, and the primary fiber bundle 5 has a width of 0.5 mm,
Thickness: 0.1 mm, length of four flat synthetic fibers 4 made of polyvinylidene chloride resin combined with 150 twists
It is produced by twisting S at times / m.

The fiber bundle 3 is prepared by aligning two primary fiber bundles 5 and twisting them Z at a twist number of 100 times / m.
It is manufactured by stabilizing twist by performing set processing under the conditions of 0 ° C. × 15 min, and finally cutting it to a length of 65 mm.

When the fiber bundle 3 thus manufactured is loosened at its tip while being sandwiched by the core material 2, the synthetic fibers 4 do not overlap each other to form a brush-like structure 1 having an excellent voluminous feel. I do.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of a usage form of the brush-like structure. Reference numeral 6 denotes a wire mesh fence that is installed outdoors. The brush-like structure 1 is a fence 6 as a decoration by passing a mesh of a wire mesh 7 alternately up and down.
It is attached to.

The synthetic fibers 4 are colored green, and the fine waves of the synthetic fibers 4 make it possible to impart a green color with a depth similar to that of a natural plant. Can be provided. Further, if a few fibers having a color different from green (for example, brown, yellow, or brilliant color) are added to the green fiber bundle 3, a wide variety of colors can be obtained as the brush-like structure 1.

[0027]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, since the fiber bundle sandwiched between the cores is formed by twisting a plurality of flat synthetic fibers, the volume feeling is reduced. In addition, an excellent brush-like structure having a deep color tone can be obtained without sagging the fiber tip by use.

Further, if two primary fiber bundles which are ply-twisted are combined as a fiber bundle and a twisted primary fiber bundle is used in a direction opposite to the direction of the ply twist, the number of synthetic fibers in the fiber bundle is large. Also, it is possible to apply a fine wave to the synthetic fiber, and it is possible to obtain a brush-like structure having a more voluminous feel, a strong stiffness, and a good tint.
