DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cable binding material for binding cables.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cable binding material as shown in FIGS. 14 and 15 has been used.

[0003] The cable tying member 1 of FIG. 14 (hereinafter referred to as "first prior art") is formed of plastic. Since the material is made of slippery plastic, the belt portion 40 is provided with irregularities, and the slit portion 30 is provided with slits that fit into the irregularities.
At the time of use, the belt portion 40 is passed through the slit of the slit portion 30, and the concave and convex portions of the belt portion 40 and the slit are fitted at a predetermined position to fix the belt portion 40.

[0004] The cable tying member 1 (hereinafter referred to as "second prior art") in Fig. 15 is called a vinyl tie. Vinyl ties are formed by sandwiching wires between vinyl chloride sheets. In use, after winding the cable with a vinyl tie, twist the vinyl tie several times to bind the cable.

[0005]

The first and second prior arts described above have the following problems.

First, there is a problem that disposal processing is difficult. The cable bundling material is used from the time of manufacture of the product until it is delivered to the consumer, and is often discarded when used by the consumer. In other words, when using a product,
Consumers must simultaneously discard the cardboard and cable ties in which the goods were packaged. However, the cable binding material 1 is formed of plastic in the first prior art and vinyl chloride and wire in the second conventional technology. For this reason, the cardboard and the cable binding material must be discarded separately, which is troublesome.
This was a particular problem when the cable ties were bonded to the cardboard. This is because the cable ties must be removed from the cardboard. Further, it is difficult to recycle all of plastic, vinyl chloride and wire constituting the first and second prior arts.

Second, there is a problem that manufacturing is difficult. In the case of the first prior art, since the belt portion 40 and the slit portion 30 are formed in a complicated shape, manufacturing is difficult. Further, in the case of the second prior art, two kinds of materials, a vinyl chloride sheet and a wire, are prepared, and they are combined, so that it is difficult to manufacture.

[0008]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a cable bundling material of the present invention is formed of corrugated cardboard, and has a parallel portion having a constant width and an inclined portion having a width increasing from one end to the other end. And a slit portion having one or more slits through which the belt portion passes.
