Description

  The present invention relates to a fastener that posts a piece of paper via a corrugated cardboard box or a corrugated board, and has a pin that protrudes toward the other side on one side of the pinch in addition to the form of pinching.

  Conventionally, there is no suitable fastener that can be used in an unobtrusive state, does not cover the paper to be posted, and can support and post a piece of paper so as not to slide down.

  Conventionally, for example, there are those shown in Patent Documents 1, 2, 3, and 4, but these do not have a pin that protrudes toward the sandwiched counterpart.

Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-300580 No. 4-94237 Japanese Patent Application No. 2009-205928 Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-202691

Board fences and bar fences are stretched around the edges of product display shelves or product display stands used in drug stores, supermarkets, and convenience stores. Further, at the storefront described above, the upper half of the cardboard box is cut and displayed with the cardboard box in the state where the product is still contained.
The present invention relates to a fastener for posting a piece of advertising paper (hereinafter referred to as a piece of paper) such as a flyer or a price tag on a board (board fence), a bar (bar fence, etc.) or a cardboard box at such a site. .

  An object of the present invention is to obtain a fastener that can be supported and posted so that a piece of paper does not slide down.

  The present invention relates to a nail that is bent in two hands and is sandwiched so as to protrude toward one side to be sandwiched and toward the other side (that is, toward the other side to be sandwiched). Alternatively, it has a pin (hereinafter collectively referred to as a pin).

When the pin pierces a piece of paper, it pierces through to the back side. Therefore, this fastener is assumed to be “addressed” on the back side of the piece of paper as a receptacle for the pin tip that has been pierced, or a member that replaces cardboard (hereinafter collectively referred to as cardboard).
That is, this fastener is a fastener used via cardboard. Accordingly, the length of the pin (however, the protruding portion) is a length that does not exceed the thickness of the cardboard.

The fact that the pin protrudes toward the other side to be sandwiched means that when pinching (or pinching), the tip of the pin is caught (or stuck) and it is difficult to pinch.
In order to solve this problem, the side having the pin (front presser) is made longer than the other side (back presser), so that it does not face the other side directly. Longitudinal length makes it easier to warp the side with the pin outward, and if necessary, it can be bent outward (or bent) and pinched smoothly without being caught (or stuck). it can.

  In general, in the case of a fastener that is clamped in a form that is folded in two hands, the clamped paper piece tends to slip off. In the case of a plastic board (such as a board fence), an edge of a cardboard box, or a round bar (such as a bar fence), the surface of itself is slippery, so it is difficult to fasten a piece of paper so that it does not slide down.

In order to solve the above problem, this fastener takes a method of sandwiching a piece of paper via a cardboard, and stabs both the piece of paper and the cardboard together so that the piece of paper does not slide down from the cardboard. It was made to have a nail or pin that protruded toward the other side on the inside of one of the clamps.
As a result, the paper pieces can be supported and posted so as not to slide down.

There are various pincers that are folded in two.
1, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 are examples of a form in which each is folded in two and is an example.
There are various forms in which the paper is folded in two (hereinafter also referred to as a main body). Various different forms themselves are important in evaluating the sandwiching function, but the core of the present invention is to be folded in two hands and facing the other side (i.e. sandwiching). To have nails or pins that stick out (towards the direction of fit).
However, the pin is in the form of the main body and functions under the main body. Therefore, the present specification will be described by taking several examples of different shapes of the main body.

The wording used in this specification will be described.
While looking at the figure, use the top, bottom, vertical, horizontal, left, right, beyond, front, back, and front.
The inner side means the side where the front presser and the reverse presser face each other, and the outer side means the side facing the opposite direction.
The “front presser” refers to the side having the pin, the other side of the front presser is referred to as the “back presser”, and the portion connecting the front presser and the back presser (upper end portion) is referred to as the top portion.

The corrugated board means the object to which the present fastener is attached (or installed), such as a piece of corrugated cardboard or a piece of corrugated cardboard, or which is supported by the present fastener.
The cardboard board or the board means a cardboard board to which a piece of paper is fastened.
In some cases, the corrugated board itself is used as a bulletin board. The cardboard board in this case also serves as a mount.
Corrugated cardboard is a generic term for cardboard boxes and cardboard boards.

  The fastener of the present invention is roughly divided into two forms. One is shown in FIGS. 1 and 6 to 9, and is formed by connecting two form frames (pinching openings) to the left and right, and has two (a pair of) pins. The other is shown in FIGS. 10, 11 and 12, and has one frame (a pin) and one pin. The latter is considered to be used as a set of two, and is basically the same as the former.

This application is described with a number of figures (Figures 1 and 6-12).
The reason for this is to explain that there are various types of clippers that are folded in two, and that various forms or modes can be taken. In other words, the fastener of the present invention is not limited to the form or mode shown in the present application.

This will be described below with reference to the drawings.
An example of how to use or use the fastener will be described with the one shown in FIG. 1 as a representative diagram.
FIG. 1 (1) is a perspective view seen from the front left direction. FIG. 2 (2) is a side view. FIG. 3 (3) is a plan view.
The left and right form frames (squeeze openings) are each made up of a top (G1), front presser (G2), and back presser (G3). The form frames are connected horizontally at the connecting portion (H) to form a pair.
As shown in the plan view of FIG. 1 (3), the back frame and the front presser face each other diagonally. Therefore, the width of the top shown in FIG. 1 (2) appears narrower than the width of the top shown in FIG. 1 (1). This constitutes a form (or function) for increasing the tolerance (size of expansion and contraction) of the spring with respect to the thickness (or thickness) of the object to be pinched or attached.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 (1) and (2), the front presser is longer than the back presser side. This is to prevent the pin (G4) on the side of the front presser from being caught or caught when sandwiched between objects.

  As can be seen in FIGS. 1 (2) and (3), the pins on the front presser side protrude toward the back presser side and directly opposite. For example, when the target corrugated cardboard is 4 mm thick, the length of the protruding pin is suitably about 2 to 3 mm from the inner surface (presser surface) of the front presser. At least, the length of the pin is important so as not to exceed the thickness of the corrugated cardboard used as a medium.

  In the case shown in FIG. 1, a knob (K) is provided behind the pin (on the front side of the front presser). This will be described next.

FIG. 2 illustrates a state in which a piece of paper is fastened and fastened to a cardboard box.
Since the side with the pin is lengthened vertically and has a pin at its lower end, when the paper piece is fastened to the cardboard box, as shown in Fig. 2 (2), it is slid without trouble and fastened. be able to. If necessary, the pinch can be opened (expanded) by pulling the “knob”. After the paper piece and the fastener are set in a predetermined position, the pin is pushed from the front side, and the pin is pushed into the thickness of the cardboard as shown in FIG.

When removing the fastener from the cardboard box, it is difficult to remove it unless there is a portion that becomes a “knob”, so a “knob” is provided.
By providing the knob, as shown in FIG. 2 (4), the pin can be pulled out (pulled out) with the knob and removed.
The knob is not limited to removing (unplugging) the fastener, but also serves as a knob for fastening.

As described above, this fastener is a fastener that is used via a cardboard (or using a cardboard as a mount). However, as shown in FIG. 2 (1), when fastening a piece of paper to a cardboard box, Since the cardboard box itself serves as a mount, it can be used without preparing a cardboard board.
FIG. 2 (3) shows the state of FIG. 2 (1) as a cross-sectional view. The pin part firmly stabs the piece of paper and the cardboard box. In addition, the top of the fastener (the top as seen from the side) is firmly clamped according to the thickness of the cardboard box.

FIG. 3 illustrates a state in which a piece of paper is fastened and fastened to a round bar (a bar fence or the like) using the fastener shown in FIG.
By the way, round bars of about 3 to 6 mm are mainly used for bar fences used for merchandise display stands and merchandise display shelves.

FIG. 3 (1) illustrates a state where the fastener is attached to a round bar.
The one shown in FIG. 1 has a configuration in which the tolerance (size of expansion and contraction) of the spring is increased with respect to the thickness (or thickness) of the object to be pinched or attached as described above. Even in the deepest part, the spring for pinching and pressing is in a form that works effectively.
Therefore, even a thing that fits in the innermost part of the pinching mouth, such as a round bar, can be firmly pinched (or attached).

FIG. 3 (2) illustrates how the paper piece is fastened after being attached to the state of FIG. 3 (1).
The piece of paper is fastened with a cardboard mount attached. The thickness of the mount should be equivalent to the thickness of the round bar

FIGS. 4 and 5 illustrate how the paper piece (corrugated board) is fastened to the edge of the plate and how it is fastened using the fastener shown in FIG. 1 (but not having a knob).
As shown in Fig. 4 (1) and (2), the width of the pinch (the top of the formwork as viewed from the side) is slightly widened when it is fastened to the edge of a plate (but not a cardboard). It is required to keep it.
That is, the width corresponds to the thickness of the mount (corrugated board) and the thickness of the board to be sandwiched.
Therefore, at the stage where the mount (and the piece of paper) is set (pinched) to the fastener, it can be easily pinched as shown in FIG. Then, as shown in FIG. 4 (2), a pin is inserted.
FIG. 4 (3) is a perspective view showing a state in which pins are inserted into the cardboard mount as shown in FIG. 4 (2). 4 (1) and 2 (2) are side views.

FIG. 5 explains the state of being sandwiched between the edges of the plate in the state shown in FIGS. 4 (2) and (3).
FIG. 5 is a perspective view.
As shown in Fig. 4 (2) and (3), the pin is already hidden (pierced) within the thickness of the cardboard so that it can be slipped (or fastened). Can be attached). Therefore, unlike the case shown in FIG. 1, it is not necessary to have a knob portion, so that the one having no knob portion is shown.
That is, it can be easily clamped without having a knob portion, and can be easily removed by following the clamping operation.
Of course, you may have a knob. In the case of having a knob, even if the usability is improved, there is no problem.

FIG. 5 shows an example in which a cardboard board is used as a bulletin board piece.
In the state shown in FIG. 5, when removing the cardboard mount (ie, a piece of paper), it can be easily removed without a “knob”. If the cardboard mount is removed upward, it can be smoothly removed. At the stage of removal, the state shown in FIGS. 4 (2) and (3) is obtained. Therefore, the pin may be removed and removed in the state shown in FIG. 4 (1).

In short, there may be two types, “things with knobs” and “things without knobs”. Incidentally, FIGS. 4 to 10 are described in a form having no knob portion.
4, 6, 9, and 11 show a case where the tip (lower end) of the back presser is warped outward to facilitate clamping. “Yes” or “No” may be arbitrarily determined for the warped item.

In the case shown in FIG. 1, the front presser (the side having the pin) is outside the left and right sides of the back presser, whereas in FIG. 6, the front presser is placed inside the left and right sides of the back presser. It is a thing. In other words, it explains the diversity that can be achieved in different ways.
As in the case shown in FIG. 1, the spring shown in FIG. 6 has a large tolerance for the thickness (or thickness) of the object to be pinched (or attached), and can be pinched and pressed even at the deepest part of the pinch. This is a form in which the springs work effectively.
Incidentally, FIG. 6 (1) is the perspective view seen from the front direction. FIG. 6 (2) is a side view. FIG. 6 (3) is a plan view.

The one shown in Fig. 7 consists of a part that folds into a front presser and a back presser (top part) in the form of a spring wound in a coil shape, and the spring works at the back of the pinch. It can be used in the same manner as shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 7 (1), the coiled winding shows the outline of the winding when viewed from the front, and the number of windings when viewed from the side as shown in FIG. 7 (2). It is a form of winding.
Incidentally, the number of windings may be arbitrarily set in relation to the sandwiching width (the width of the top as viewed from the side).
FIG. 7A is a perspective view seen from the front direction. FIG. 7 (2) is a side view. FIG. 7 (3) is a plan view.

As shown in FIG. 8, the part shown in FIG. 8 is a part where the front presser and the back presser are folded (top part) in a winding form, and the spring works at the deepest part of the pinch. Can be used in the same manner as shown in FIG.
The shape of winding is arbitrary. Further, the number of windings may be one as shown in FIG.
8 differs from that shown in FIG. 7 in that the winding contour is visible when viewed from the side, and the number of windings is visible when viewed from the front.
Incidentally, FIG. 8 (1) is the perspective view seen from the front left direction. FIG. 8 (2) is a front view. FIG. 8 (3) is a side view.

1 and 6, when sandwiched between objects, the insertion port (width from the side to the top) is expanded, and the left side presser foot in the state seen from the front. The distance from the right front presser is slightly changed, that is, the one in FIG. 1 has a narrower distance, and the one in FIG. 6 has a form in which the distance is widened.
On the other hand, what is shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is a form in which the distance between the left front presser and the right front presser does not change even when sandwiched between objects.

In the case shown in FIG. 9, the front presser and the back presser are connected to each other as shown in FIG. 9 (3), and the form of the top is as shown in FIGS. It is not a special form. However, it will be explained that this form may be used if it is intended to be sandwiched (or attached) with a constant thickness (or constant thickness).
FIG. 9 (1) is a perspective view seen from the front left direction. FIG. 9 (2) is a side view. FIG. 9 (3) is a plan view.
By the way, even if the front presser and the back presser are in the form of being sandwiched facing each other, the side of the back presser is bent inward from the bottom end (tip) of the back presser and has a portion extending deeper into the pinch. As in the case shown in FIGS. 1, 6, 7, and 8, the tolerance of the spring (size for expanding / contracting the pinch width) is increased with respect to the thickness of the object to be pinched or attached. It can also be done.
However, in this case, the width of the top is required to have a margin with a margin in advance.

The one shown in FIG. 9 has a pair (two) of pins, whereas the one shown in FIG. 10 has a configuration having one pin. In this form, the front presser is swung around the vertical axis, and the clamped state is difficult to stabilize, so the back presser side should be shaped so that it is pressed by the surface as shown in the folded shape. Incidentally, FIG. 10 (1) is a perspective view seen from the front left direction. FIG. 10 (2) is a side view. FIG. 10 (3) is a plan view.

The one shown in FIG. 10 is formed by bending the streaks, whereas the one shown in FIG. 11 is made of plastic (however, the pin portion is made of metal).
11 (1) and 11 (2) are perspective views. 11 (3) and 11 (4) are front views. FIG. 11 (5) is a side view.

  1 and 6 to 11 are those in which the vertical length of the back presser is shortened with respect to the front presser side having the pins, whereas those shown in FIG. The vertical length of the front presser (the side having the pin) is shortened with respect to the presser.

FIG. 12 is similar to the one shown in FIG. 7 and comprises a spring in which the top is coiled so that the spring works elastically or flexibly. Therefore, when the knob portion is pulled in a state where the back presser is hooked on the edge of the cardboard, as shown in FIG.
FIG. 12 explains that, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 6 to 11, the front presser does not necessarily have to be vertically long with respect to the back presser.
Incidentally, FIG. 12 (1) is a perspective view. FIG. 12 (2) is a side view. FIG. 12 (3) is a front view.
FIG. 12 (4) is a diagram showing the state when the back presser is hooked on the edge of the cardboard, the knob is pulled close, and the pinch is opened, as viewed from the side.

The front presser side having pins will be described.
It can be said that the front presser side of this fastener has “the same function as a thumbtack”. The vertical line that forms the front presser corresponds to the head of the thumbtack, and is the part that plays the role of firmly pressing the paper surface. Therefore, it is important to have a form that can hold the paper piece against the cardboard. In the figure, the shape of the corrugated cardboard is shown as being straightly extended, but it may be bent into a flat surface.

In the case of a thumbtack, it has a pin of a certain length and is used to stab it in a hard material that does not come off, whereas this fastener has a very short pin and has a pin hole. Since it is used to stab on cardboard that will loosen immediately, as a countermeasure, it has a pinching form.
It is important that the fastener is made of a material in which the spring works flexibly (or bends and bends).
The pin tip does not necessarily have to be sharp and sharp. What is necessary is just to be sharp to such an extent that it stabs when it pushes on the cardboard board surface from the front.

  Instead of the corrugated board, for example, a foamed polystyrene board or a cork board can be used. That is, if it has a plate shape similar to that of a corrugated cardboard and is made of a material that can be easily inserted as in the case of piercing the cardboard board, it can be used in place of the cardboard board. Based on the above, the “corrugated board” in the present specification may be read as, for example, “a foamed polystyrene board or a cork board”.

  The present invention describes the entire invention through the entire drawings (FIGS. 1 to 12), and the technical contents described in the claims are limited by the specific technical contents described in the individual drawings. It is not something.

Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 2 (1), there has been no suitable fastener that is attached to the cut end of a cardboard box and fastens the piece of paper in a state that does not slide down. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 5, there was no suitable fastener that could be attached to the edge of the plate and fastened in a state where the piece of paper would not slide down. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3, there is no suitable fastener that can be attached to a round bar and fastened in a state in which a piece of paper does not slide down.
The present invention has a usage as shown above and a fastener that can support and post a piece of paper so as not to slide down.
It can make a significant contribution in measuring sales promotions.
