DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention is to adjust the length of a rope such as a house band for supporting a vinyl film used in a greenhouse for gardening on a frame or a vinyl string used for cultivating vegetables, The present invention relates to a rope length adjuster capable of fixing an end portion of a rope.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a rope called a house band for supporting a vinyl film used for a horticultural greenhouse on a skeleton has both ends tied to a hook pin or a fitting, so that It is necessary to adjust the length by adjusting the temperature and stretching the rope.To adjust the length of the rope, tie the rope at the end or pull the rope to slacken the rope and form a knot at the slack portion. I am doing it.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Since the conventional rope length adjustment requires unwinding the rope, or adjusting the length and re-tying, the work is troublesome and troublesome. Has the drawback of being easily damaged.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks,
The length of the rope such as a house band or hineel cord can be easily and easily performed without damaging the rope, and the length of the rope can be surely fixed without fixing the end of the rope. The purpose is to provide an adjusting tool.

The above and other objects and novel features of the present invention will become more fully apparent when the following description is read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the drawings are for explanation only, and do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is formed in an H shape consisting of both side plates and a connecting plate connecting the both side plates at a central portion or a portion near the central portion. A plate-shaped length adjusting tool main body and a length adjusting rope formed so as to enter from the outer surface of one side plate of the length adjusting tool main body to a portion near the other end of the connecting plate are inserted. One of the rope insertion groove and the upper and lower end portions of both side plates of the length adjusting tool body is formed integrally so as to cover the opening portion of the end portion and allow the rope to be inserted into the opening portion. The locking piece constitutes a rope length adjuster.

[0007]

With the rope length adjuster configured as described above, the rope for adjusting the length of the rope is inserted into the rope insertion groove, rotated, and the rope is passed through the locking piece to be positioned in the opening. As a result, the length of the rope can be adjusted by winding the rope around the connection plate, and one end of the rope wound around the connection plate is supported by the locking piece and is not unwound. In addition, the end of the rope and the part near the end of the rope are overlapped, the end of the rope is inserted into the rope insertion groove and rotated, and the end of the rope is tied by winding the rope around the connection part. Can be fixed without.
