[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a strap connector for binding a strap attached for lowering a camera, a video camera or the like from a shoulder.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a method for binding the ends of a strap attached to a camera or the like, heat welding, caulking, or the like is known. In addition, it is necessary to attach a strap in advance and further bind the ends of the strap by heat welding etc., which complicates the process and requires handling the camera with the strap attached. There was a problem. For this reason, 3-296
As disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 35-35, the connector comprises a hollow cap-shaped connector main body having a strap through hole through which both ends of the strap are passed, and a core inserted and fitted into the connector main body. A strap connector has been devised and put into practical use in which a core having both ends thereof bent along both sides and pushed along with the strap into the connector main body is devised.

[0003]

However, the strap connector having the above-described structure has a structure in which each of the strap ends is bent to fit along the side surface of the core and housed and fixed in the connector main body. The problem to be solved is that once the length is determined, it can be shortened by cutting but cannot be lengthened, and the length of the strap, which needs to be changed depending on the user's physique and the weight of the camera, etc., cannot be adjusted. was there.

An object of the present invention is to provide a strap connector capable of binding strap ends in a state where the length of the strap can be changed to either a long or short length.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and has a hollow cap-shaped connector body in which a strap through hole for passing both ends of a strap is provided. A strap connector comprising a core to be inserted and fitted, wherein the core is pushed along with the strap into the connector body along both ends of the strap passed through the strap through hole, and the core is entirely removed in a T-shape. Forming a flange for insertion and an insertion part, and forming a plurality of strap pressing projections along the strap on both sides of the insertion part,
A strap connector is characterized in that a strap bypass passage is formed in a detachable flange portion on a side extension line along the strap and a holding space for inserting both ends of the strap is formed in one of the side faces along the strap. Things.

[0006]

As described above, a strap bypass passage is formed in the detachable flange on the extension of the side surface along the strap, and a holding space for inserting both ends of the strap is formed in one of the side surfaces along the strap. In addition, the detour length of the strap can be freely changed, and the length of the strap, which needs to be changed depending on the user's physique or the weight of the camera, can be adjusted.

[0007]

FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway plan view of a strap connector according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the straps are bound. The strap is made of a thermoplastic synthetic resin and passes through both ends of the strap 1. A hollow cap-shaped connector body 3 having a through hole 2 formed therein;
A core 4 which is inserted into and fitted into the core 4. The core 4 has a T-shape as a whole to form a detachable flange portion 5 and an insertion portion 6, and the ends of the strap 1 are arranged along both sides of the insertion portion 6. And a strap detour passage 8 is formed in the detachable flange 5 on an extension of the side surface along the end of the strap 1, and one end of the strap 1 is provided on one of the side surfaces along the strap. This is a configuration in which a holding space 9 into which the device is inserted is formed.

In the thus constructed strap connector, the connector body 3 and the core 4 are manufactured by injection molding means, and as shown in FIG. 2, both ends of the strap are passed through the strap through holes 2 into the connector body 3. After inserting one end of the strap into the holding space 9 formed on the other side by passing the end of one strap along the one side of the core 4 and passing it through the strap bypass passage 8 of the detachable flange 5 to bypass the strap. By inserting and inserting the insertion portion 6 of the core 4 into the hollow of the connector main body 3, the strap is bound. When adjusting the length of the strap, the core 4 is pulled out of the connector body, the detour length of one strap end wrapped around the core 4 is changed, and then the core 4 is again hollowed out of the connector body 3. When the detour dimension of the strap end is long, the strap is in a shortened state, and when the detour dimension of the strap end is short, the strap is in an extended state. Becomes

As shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of strap pressing projections 7 formed on both side surfaces of the core 4 facilitate the insertion into the connector body 3 and improve the holding force of the strap end. Alternatively, it may be formed so as to be inclined with respect to the insertion direction.

[0010]

As described above, the strap connector of the present invention has a T-shaped core as a whole, has a detachable flange portion and an insertion portion, and has a plurality of strap pressing projections along both sides of the insertion portion. In addition to the above, the strap detour passage is formed in the detachable flange on the extension of the side surface along the strap, and the holding space for inserting both ends of the strap is formed on one of the side surfaces along the strap. Pass the strap through the connector body through the through hole, and place one end of the strap along the one side of the core through the bypass passage of the detachable flange to make a detour, and insert the tip into the holding space formed on the other side. After insertion, the strap can be bound by inserting and inserting the insertion part of this core into the hollow of the connector body, Therefore, it is possible to provide a strap connector in which the length of the strap can be freely changed by changing the detour length of the strap, and the length of the strap which needs to be changed depending on the user's physique or the weight of the camera or the like. .
