Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a combination of a buckle and a band which has a simple and sure function. <P>SOLUTION: The buckle 1 is equipped with a pair of right and left slits 5 and 5' for passing the bands 11 and 13, and a protuberance 7 which is located at the center and protrudes upward. The combination 9 of the buckle and the band comprises the buckle 1 and the band 11. The band is equipped with a hole which fastens the protuberance. Preferably, the band has a plurality of holes. The band which is fitted by being passed through the slits is surely fixed by the buckle equipped with the protuberance. Therefore, even when the material of the band is thin, or of which the friction coefficient is small, the effect can be obtained. The combination of the buckle and the band which includes this buckle can surely display the function while being an extremely simple structure. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a combination of a buckle and a band that can fasten the band.
[0002]
[Prior art]
The structure of using a band through a slit is often used for hanging fasteners such as rucksacks, water bottles and the like that are carried on the shoulder. FIG. 4 is a sectional view showing an example of a conventional combination of a buckle and a band. In the combination 31 of the buckle and the band shown in this figure, the band 37 is fixed by folding the slit 35 by passing the band 37 through a pair of slits 35 and 35 ′ provided in the buckle 33. . The fixing of the band is performed by pressing the band 37 itself at the corners of the slits 35 and 35 ′ by pulling the band 37.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The combination of a buckle and a band is used in many places because of its simplicity and relatively sufficient hooking function. However, especially when the band is thin and rigid, the band may loosen or slip. The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a combination structure of a buckle and a band that reliably functions with a simple structure.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The buckle according to the present invention includes a pair of left and right slits through which a band is passed, and a projection located between the slits and projecting upward. By using this buckle, the band is securely tightened regardless of the material of the band.
[0005]
The combination of the buckle and the band according to the present invention includes a buckle, a first band, and a second band. The buckle has a pair of slits and a projection located between the slits and projecting upward. The first band has a hole, and is arranged so that one slit is passed from bottom to top and the other slit is passed from top to bottom, and the hole is locked by the projection. . The second band is arranged so as to pass through the other slit from bottom to top and to pass through one slit from top to bottom, and to be superimposed on the first band. In this combination of the buckle and the band, the band does not slip due to the projection of the buckle and the hole of the band.
[0006]
Preferably, the band has a plurality of holes for locking the projections. In this combination of the buckle and the band, the length of the band to be tightened can be adjusted by moving the hole of the band.
[0007]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on preferred embodiments with reference to the drawings as appropriate.
[0008]
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a buckle 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention. The buckle 1 includes a main body 3, a pair of slits 5 and 5 ', and a projection 7 at the center between the slits. The size of the protrusion 7 is appropriately set according to the thickness of the band used.
[0009]
FIG. 2 is a sectional view showing a buckle-band combination 9 using the buckle 1 of FIG. In this example, two different types of bands 11 and 13 are used. The band 11 passed between the slits 5 and 5 'is provided with a hole 15 in which the projection 7 is fitted. The other band 13 is overlapped with the band 11 and passed through both slits 5 and 5 '. The band 13 plays a role of covering the band 11 being locked to the projection and of holding the band 11 at the slit corners 17 and 19. The band 11 holds the band 13 at corners 21 and 23. The combination of the buckle and the band reliably functions even when the band is made of, for example, a resin having a small coefficient of friction.
[0010]
FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a state in which the combination 9 of the buckle and the band of the present invention is applied to shoes 25. An inflatable portion 27 is provided on the upper part of the shoe 25. Since the combination 9 of the buckle and the band is provided in this portion, it can be fitted and fastened to the foot when worn. According to the combination of the buckle and the band, a band made of a thin and durable material can be applied. In addition, since bands of various materials can be selected, the fashionability of shoes can be enhanced.
[0011]
【Example】
Hereinafter, the effects of the present invention will be clarified by examples, but the present invention should not be construed as being limited based on the description of the examples.
[0012]
The buckle was provided with two slits having a length of 22 mm and a width of 6 mm in a hard polyethylene body having a length of 65 mm, a width of 30 mm and a thickness of 3 mm such that the center of the slit was 9 mm from the end in the length direction of the body. . A projection having a height and a diameter of 1 mm was provided at the center of the buckle. Two polyester bands having a width of 20 mm and a thickness of 0.7 were attached to the slit. The protrusion was locked in a hole having a diameter of 2 mm provided in the band. The bands did not come off when the free ends of each band were strongly pulled or loosened.
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the combination structure of the buckle and the band of the present invention is simple, but can more securely hold the band than the conventional one.
