Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a reflector for attaching to a bag, and more specifically, it is a reflection that can be avoided during normal use, riding a motorcycle or walking sports. I am involved in the body and also in the bag equipped with this reflector.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, it may be inconvenient for a so-called everyday bag to be used at various places such as work, school, and shopping, and it may be inconvenient. Bags that are inconspicuous are often preferred because they can be done. For example, work clothes such as business suits and school uniforms often have subdued colors such as black, gray, and brown, and some people prefer the above subdued colors as their everyday clothes. In consideration of this, it is often avoided to use bags that are easy to stand out, such as white or yellow, or that have a lot of shining parts, and bags that are hard to stand out, such as those based on black, dark blue, gray, or brown, are preferred. Many. In addition, there are cases in which the bag of the above-mentioned inconspicuous color is preferred so that it does not attract much attention when walking in the crowd.

On the other hand, motorcycles, that is, bicycles and motorcycles are widely used. Also, running and walking,
Walking sports such as jogging are also commonly performed. When riding the two-wheeled vehicle or when playing the walking sports, a bag such as a daypack or a waist bag is often used which can secure the freedom of both hands by arranging the bag body on the back side. Therefore, a bag that is inconspicuous is inconvenient for the prevention of traffic accidents, and it is preferable to place it on the back with a well-prominent bag so that it can be visually recognized by the driver of the surrounding vehicle, particularly a vehicle such as a car, motorcycle, or bicycle behind. .

[0004] Here, a reflector that reflects the headlight of the vehicle and shines, such as a reflection sticker, a reflection plate, and a reflection band formed by sewing a reflection sheet on cloth, is widely used. Since this reflector is originally for reflecting light, it has a bright color such as white or yellow, and is easily noticeable not only at night but also during the day. Therefore, it is very preferable to dispose the reflector on the bag so that it is visible to the surroundings and it is very conspicuous to prevent traffic accidents.

[0005]

As described above, it is preferable to use a bag that shows the reflector around and is conspicuous when riding the two-wheeled vehicle or playing the walking sports, but in practice it is usually used. I often shared the above-mentioned inconspicuous bag suitable for use. This is not appropriate in terms of preventing traffic accidents. In addition, it is said that a bag with the above-mentioned reflector is provided only for riding the above-mentioned two-wheeled vehicle or the above-mentioned walking / running sport, and the above-mentioned bag that is not noticeable is used for other daily use. As I said, I sometimes used at least two bags. This is not economical. It can also be a cause of lost items.

Therefore, according to the present invention, the reflector is a reflector to be placed in a bag, and when the rider rides on the motorcycle or plays the walking sports, the reflector is clearly visible to the surroundings to cause a traffic accident. It is effective for prevention, and when this bag is used as a bag for everyday use in various places, the reflector is not conspicuous, it is economical, and the cause of forgetting things can be reduced easily. Intended as a reflector. In addition, it is intended for a bag to which this reflector is attached.

[0007]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has the following technical means. That is, a reflector for reflecting the light of a vehicle headlight, which is a reflector for attaching to a bag, and is covered with a sheet-like body cover attached to the bag to cover a part of the bag. And a closed state in which the front surface of the cover is directed outward and an open state in which the cover is opened and the back surface of the cover is directed outward, and the cover is in the closed state. A closed state retaining means for retaining the cover, an open state retaining means for retaining the cover in the open state, the reflector, and a part of the bag covered by the cover in the closed state and the cover. And a reflector disposed on at least one of the other surface and the cover. A bag provided with the above-mentioned reflector with a cover is also preferable.

In this way, both the pocket-side reflective sticker 13a and the cover-side reflective sticker 12a are covered with the cover 7a, and the entire daypack 10 becomes almost black, which is inconspicuous to the eye. Therefore, even if this daypack 10 is used as a daily use, it does not stand out too much.

Therefore, this day pack 10 is economical because it can be shared without any problems when it is normally used, when riding the above-mentioned two-wheeled vehicle, or when doing the above-mentioned walking-running sport. Can reduce one of.

The pocket side reflective sticker 13 is also provided.
It is possible to omit either one of the two reflectors of a and the cover side reflection sticker 12a, but it is preferable to dispose the two reflectors because a reflector having a larger area can be shown in the surroundings. .

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5. This example shows the case where the present invention is applied to the waist bag. In this example, the waist bag 20 having one of the commonly used designs is used as a base. To explain this a little, the color is based on gray and the structure is a substantially rectangular parallelepiped waist bag body 1b. And a waist belt 2b arranged on the front side. The waist bag body 1b is provided with an opening 3b that extends to both sides through the upper part, and a take-out port 5b for the accessory case provided inside is provided on the back side.

In the reflector with a cover of this example, first, the cover 7b has a substantially quadrilateral shape, and the surface 71 made of the same cloth as the waist bag body 1b is arranged on the surface,
A yellow cover-side reflection sheet 12b is arranged on the back surface and is sewn to the outer material 71. A seam 72 is a line extending in the horizontal direction at the upper and lower centers of the back side of the waist bag body 1b, and one of the four sides of the cover 7b is sewn along the seam 72. Here, the cover 7b is in a closed state when the cover 7b covers the lower side of the waist bag body 1b, and in this state, the outer material 71 of the cover 7b is attached so as to face outward. Therefore, the state in which the cover 7b is covered on the upper side of the waist bag body 1b is an open state, and of course, in this state, the cover side reflection sheet 12b on the back surface of the cover 7b.
Turns to the outside. Two cover-side buckles 11b, which are the male side of the detachable buckles, are attached to the surface side of the cover 7b via cloth belts. A yellow main body side reflection sheet 13b is sewn on the back side of the waist bag main body 1b below the seams 72. Further, on the lower surface, a yellow rectangular reflection band 16 and four orange reflection plates 17 made of resin are arranged.
On the upper surface side of the waist bag body 1b, two open state retaining buckles 15b, which are the female side of the detachable buckle, are arranged to form an open state retaining means. In addition, two closed state retaining buckles 14b, which are the female side of the detachable buckle, are arranged on the lower surface side of the waist bag main body 1b to form a closed state retaining means. The detachable buckle of this example is gray on both the male side and the female side.

With the above-mentioned structure, the above-mentioned first embodiment is also used in this example
You can expect the same usage and effect as the example. That is, first, when riding the motorcycle or playing the walking sports, as shown in FIG. 4, the cover 7b is opened to cover the upper side of the waist bag body 1b, and the open state retaining buckle 15b is covered with the cover side. Fit the buckle 11b. Then, the cover 7b is fixed in the open state, and in this state, both the main body side reflection sheet 13b and the cover side reflection sheet 12b are exposed to the outside, and the reflection band 16 and the four reflection plates 17 are also outside. Exposed. Then, in this state, when the user wears the waist bag 20 on the back side of the waist, the yellow body side reflection sheet 13b and the cover side reflection sheet 12 which are yellow on the back side.
Both of b are arranged. Therefore, like the first example, it is effective in preventing traffic accidents when riding on the above-mentioned two-wheeled vehicle or when performing the above-mentioned walking-running sport. Here, when the person riding the motorcycle takes a forward leaning posture, the waist bag 20
The lower surface of is exposed to the rear. In this example, as shown in FIG. 5, the reflection band 16 and the four reflection plates 17 arranged on the lower surface of the waist bag 20 are shown rearward, so that the rear side of the user who rides on the motorcycle is rearward. The visibility from the road is higher and it is more effective in preventing traffic accidents.

Then, when getting off the motorcycle at the time of work or school activities, or when the walking sports are not performed, the cover 7b is put on the lower side of the waist bag body 1b as shown in FIG. The cover side buckle 11b is fitted to the closed state retaining buckle 14b. Then, the cover 7b is fixed in the closed state, and the four reflection plates 17 in addition to the main body side reflection sheet 13b, the cover side reflection sheet 12b, the reflection band 16 and the cover 7b are provided.
Covered with. With this arrangement, the main body side reflection sheet 13b, the cover side reflection sheet 12b, the reflection band 16 and the four reflection plates 17 are covered with the cover 7 even though they are provided, so that they are not visually noticeable. . Since the lower surface of the waist bag body 1b is almost invisible from the surroundings unless the user of the waist bag 20 leans forward, the reflector 16 and the reflection plate 17 cannot be covered with the cover 7b. Even if it sticks out, it is hardly noticeable in normal use. Therefore, the waist bag 20 will not be too conspicuous even if it is matched with the clothes having a calm color as described above.

Also, as in the first example, the waist bag 20 can be shared both when it is normally used and when riding the two-wheeled vehicle or when playing the walking sports, which is economical. Yes, and can reduce one of the causes of lost property.

It should be noted that either one of the two reflectors of the main body side reflection sheet 13b and the cover side reflection sheet 12b may be omitted, but a larger area is obtained by arranging the two reflection bodies. It is preferable because the reflector can be exposed to the surroundings.

Next, a third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8. In the third embodiment, the present invention is applied to a daypack as in the first embodiment.
Here, we focus on a daypack that has a helmet storage pocket. The daypack 30 of this example will be briefly described. The color of the daypack 30 is basically black, and the structure thereof is a daypack body 1c made of cloth and 2 arranged on the front side thereof.
It consists of a shoulder strap 2c, 2c of a book, and further, the daypack body 1c is provided with an opening 3c passing through the upper part and extending to both sides, and a helmet storage pocket 5c made of the same cloth as the daypack body is arranged on the back side, and the lid thereof is provided. The male side of the attachment / detachment buckle arranged at the tip of is attached to the female side of the attachment / detachment buckle arranged on the upper part of the daypack body 1c.

In this example, the helmet storage pocket 5c is formed in such a shape that the tip 73 wraps around the lower surface of the daypack body 1c when the lid / cover 7c which is the lid thereof is pulled down. In this example, the male side of the detachable buckle arranged at the tip 73 of the lid / cover 7c is the lid / cover side buckle 11c. The female side of the detachable buckle arranged on the upper part of the daypack body 1c serves as a closed state retaining means, which is referred to as a closed state retaining buckle 14c. The portion of the helmet storage pocket 5c excluding the lid / cover 7c is referred to as a pocket body 51. The lid / cover 7c is provided with a lid / cover-side reflection band 12c extending from the tip 73 toward the pocket body 51 as the reflector on the surface, that is, the back surface, which faces outward when folded downward. It is sewn on. A body side reflection band 13c extending downward from the upper portion is sewn to a position covered by the lid / cover 7c on the back side of the daypack body 1c. The lid / cover side reflection band 12c and the main body side reflection band 13c are both white. An open-state retaining buckle 15c, which is the female side of the detachable buckle, is arranged on the lower surface of the daypack body 1c to form an open-state retaining means. The detachable buckle is black on both the male side and the female side.

With this configuration, the same usage and effects as those of the other examples described above can be expected in this example. That is, first, when riding the motorcycle or playing the walking sports, the lid / cover 7c is opened as shown in FIG. 7, and the tip of the lid / cover 7c is pulled down so as to wrap around to the lower surface side of the daypack body 1c. The cover-side buckle 11c is fitted into the open state retaining buckle 15c. Then the lid and cover 7c
Is fixed in an open state, and both the main body side reflection band 13c and the lid / cover side reflection band 12c are exposed to the outside. When the daypack 30 is carried on the back in this state, both the main body side reflection band 13c and the lid / cover side reflection band 12c are arranged on the back side. Therefore, like the first example, it is effective in preventing traffic accidents when riding on the above-mentioned two-wheeled vehicle or when performing the above-mentioned walking-running sport. Further, in this example, as shown in FIG. 8, when the user riding on the two-wheeled vehicle takes a forward tilted posture, the lid / cover side reflection band wraps around the lower surface of the daypack body 1c together with the lid / cover 7c. 12c
Since this portion is exposed to the rear, the visibility from the rear when riding on a two-wheeled vehicle is much higher than in the second embodiment, and is more effective in preventing traffic accidents.

Then, when getting off the motorcycle at the time of work or school activities, or when not doing the walking and running sports, as shown in FIG. 6, the lid / cover 7c is lifted to hold the closed state buckle 14c. Attach the lid / cover side buckle 11c to the. Then, the lid / cover 7c is fixed in the closed state, and both the lid / cover side reflection band 12c and the main body side reflection band 13c are covered with the lid / cover 7c. By doing this, the reflection band 1 on the lid / cover side is formed.
Although it has both 2c and the reflection band 13c on the bag body side, it is inconspicuous because it is covered with the cover and cover 7c. Therefore, the daypack 30 is not too conspicuous even if it is matched with the clothes having a calm color as described above.

Here, when riding the above-mentioned motorcycle, it is preferable to wear the helmet 60 not only when it is a motorcycle but also when riding a bicycle, and many helmets 60 for bicycles are also available. In this example, when the helmet 60 is worn when riding on the motorcycle, there is no problem even if the lid / cover 7c of the helmet storage pocket 5c is left open, and the helmet 60 is removed when the user dismounts from the motorcycle. The work of closing the lid / cover 7c by storing it in the helmet storage pocket 5c is the work of covering both the lid / cover side reflection band 12c and the main body side reflection band 13c with the lid / cover 7c. It is easy to make it easy. Therefore, it can be used when playing the walking sports, but it is particularly convenient when using the motorcycle.

Although not shown, the pocket body 5 is also shown.

It is possible to prevent 1 from opening unexpectedly and getting dust or wind pressure.

Further, as in the other examples described above, the daypack 30 can be commonly used both when it is used normally and when it is used for riding the two-wheeled vehicle or for playing the walking sports as described above, which is economical. It can also reduce one of the causes of lost property.

The above-mentioned cover / cover side reflection band 12c
Also, either one of the two reflectors of the bag body side reflection band 13c may be omitted, but it is preferable to dispose the two reflectors because a reflector having a larger area can be exposed to the surroundings. .

Although three examples have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these examples, and is commonly used in the above-mentioned normal use, in the riding of the two-wheeled vehicle, and in the walking sports. Can be applied to the expected bag. Therefore, in addition to providing the bag manufactured by applying the present invention in advance by the bag maker as in the above-mentioned example, as shown in FIG. 9 as a fourth example, the manufacturer places the bag on the back side of the cover 7d. The reflection sheet 12d is arranged and the cover side snap 11d which is the female side of the snap button is arranged, and the eyelet 1 is attached to an appropriate bag.
