Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an incense holder that supports mosquito coils.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 An example of an incense holder for raising a mosquito coil or the like is shown in Registered Utility Model Publication No. 3005967. Hereinafter, the incense holder shown in this publication will be described as a conventional incense holder.

FIG. 7 is a plan view schematically showing the structure of a conventional incense holder. With reference to FIG. 7, the incense holder 110 is formed by punching and molding a metal plate material by press working. The incense holder 110 has a base 101 and a claw portion 103. The base 101 and the claw portion 103 are integrally formed by being connected via a bendable connecting portion 104.

The claw portion 103 has a tip portion 105, an intermediate portion 106, and a base portion 107, and is connected to the base 101 via the connecting portion 104 at the base portion 107. The tip portion 105 is bifurcated, and one end thereof is inserted into the center of the spiral mosquito coil and directly supports the mosquito coil. The edge portion 105a of the tip portion 105 is a cut end surface obtained by cutting the plate material with a press. An edge bend 106a is formed at the edge of the intermediate portion 106.

The claw portion 103 is located in the hole 111 formed in the base 101. An inner curl 102 is formed on the outer peripheral edge of the base plate 101 and is bent to the back surface side in the figure. Further, an edge bending portion 111a is formed in the entire edge portion of the hole 111 except the connecting portion 104.

The conventional incense holder thus formed is used as follows. With reference to FIG. 5, first, a finger is inserted into the hole 111 of the base 101, the claw portion 103 is grasped, and the claw portion 103 is bent from the connecting portion 104. As a result, the claw portion 103 is raised to approximately 90 degrees with respect to the base 101. Next, the tip portion 105 of the claw portion 103 is inserted into a hole provided at the center of the mosquito coil and the claw portion 103 is connected to the mosquito coil. This supports the mosquito coil.

[0007]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the above-described conventional incense holder 110, the base 101 is provided with the holes 111. Therefore, there is a problem that the rigidity of the base 101 is small and the shape retention stability is insufficient when supporting a mosquito coil.

Further, since the base 101 is provided with the holes 111, the weight of the base 101 is small, and there is a problem that the mounting is not stable when supporting a large mosquito coil.

Further, since the hole 111 is provided, there is a problem in that handling is difficult, for example, when the incense holder 110 is handled, a finger or the like is caught in the hole 111.

Further, the claw portion 103 is provided integrally with the base 101 and is located inside the hole 111. Therefore, in consideration of the necessity of edge bending and the strength of the incense holder 110, the degree of freedom of the shape of the claw portion 103 is inevitably low. Therefore, there is also a problem that it is difficult to change the shape of the claw portion 103 in response to the needs of the purchaser.

In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide an incense holder that has excellent product rigidity and installation stability, is easy to handle, and has a high degree of freedom in design.

[0012]

Means for Solving the Problems An incense holder according to the present invention is a metal incense holder that supports incense and includes a base member and a claw member. The base member has a main surface, and an outer peripheral edge portion is bent inward. The nail body member is provided such that one end portion is attached to the main surface of the base member and the other end portion serves as a nail portion for supporting the incense stick. The shape of the base member is defined only by its outer peripheral edge. At least the outer peripheral edge portion of the intermediate portion sandwiched between the one end portion and the other end portion of the claw member is bent inward.

[0013]

[Action]

 In the incense holder according to the present invention, since the shape of the base member is defined only by the outer peripheral edge portion, the base member is not provided with holes. Further, since the base member and the claw member can be separately prepared, it is not necessary to provide a hole in the base member. In this way, the base member can be made into a simple flat plate shape, and it is not necessary to provide holes, so that an incense holder with excellent rigidity can be obtained.

Further, since it is not necessary to provide a hole in the base member, the weight of the base member itself can be increased as compared with the case where the hole is provided. Therefore, even when supporting a large mosquito coil, it is possible to obtain an incense holder with excellent stability in placement.

Further, since it is not necessary to provide a hole in the base member, it is not necessary to catch a finger or the like in this hole, which facilitates handling.

In addition, since the base member and the pawl member can be prepared separately, the shape of the pawl member is less restricted by the shape of the base member than in the conventional example. In other words, the degree of freedom in designing the claw member can be increased as compared with the conventional example. Therefore, it is possible to easily change the shape of the nail member in response to the needs of the purchaser.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 are perspective views schematically showing a storage state and a usage state of an incense holder according to an embodiment of the present invention. 2 is a schematic sectional view taken along the line YY of FIG. 4 is a side sectional view taken along line XX of FIG.

First, referring to FIG. 1, an incense holder 10 of this embodiment has a base 1 and a nail 3. The base 1 is made of metal and is a substantially rectangular flat plate. An edge bending portion 2 is provided on the outer peripheral edge portion of the base 1 over the entire circumference. The shape of the base 1 is defined only by the outer peripheral edge portion. That is, the base 1 has no holes.

The claw body 3 is made of metal and has a support portion 4, a claw portion 5, and an intermediate portion 6. The support portion 4, which is one end of the claw body 3, is fixed to the surface of the base 1 by, for example, spot welding. The claw portion 5, which is the other end of the claw body 3, has a substantially V-shape when viewed two-dimensionally. The intermediate portion 6 is located between the support portion 4 and the claw portion 5, and an edge bending portion 6a is formed on the outer peripheral edge portion of the intermediate portion 6.

Referring to FIG. 2, in this stored state, base 1 and pawl 3 are arranged so as to be substantially parallel to each other. Further, in this stored state, the thickness T _A of the edge bending portion 2 of the base 1 is set to be larger than the sum T _B of the thicknesses of the claw body 3 and the base 1 at the edge bending portion 6a of the claw body 3. Preferably.

Next, the operation of shifting the incense holder from the stored state to the used state will be described. First, referring to FIG. 1, the claw portion 5 of the claw body 3 is grasped and the intermediate portion 6 and the claw portion 5 of the claw body 3 are bent. As a result, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the intermediate portion 6 and the claw portion 5 of the claw body 3 are raised to approximately 90 degrees with respect to the base 1. One end of the raised nail portion 5 is inserted into a hole provided at the center of the mosquito coil and the nail portion 5 is connected to the mosquito coil. Finally, the back side of the base 1 is placed in contact with the floor and placed on the floor.

When the mosquito coil stick is broken and the central hole is missing, the mosquito coil stick is inserted between the V-shaped forks to connect the nail portion and the mosquito coil stick.

Next, a method of manufacturing the incense holder 10 of this embodiment will be briefly described. First, the base plate 1 is obtained by sequentially cutting the metal plate along the shape and bending the outer peripheral edge of the cut metal plate. Further, the claw body 3 is obtained by sequentially cutting the metal plate along the shape so that one end has a V shape, and bending the desired portion of the cut metal plate. The base 1 and the pawl 3 thus obtained are connected by spot welding the supporting portion 4 of the pawl 3 to the base 1 to complete the incense holder 10.

In addition, in the incense holder 10 of the present embodiment, the configuration in which the edge bending portion 6a is provided only on the outer peripheral edge portion of the intermediate portion 6 of the claw body 3 has been described. However, the structure of the incense holder of the present invention is not limited to this, and even if the edge bending portion 16a is provided over the entire outer peripheral edge portion except the tip portion of the claw portion 5 and the support portion 4 as shown in FIG. Good. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, an edge bending portion 26a may be provided over the entire outer peripheral edge portion except the support portion 4.

Further, in the present embodiment, the edge-bending portion 2 of the base 1 is bent on the side where the claw body 3 is attached, but it may be bent on the opposite side. Further, the edge bending portion 6a of the claw body 3 may be bent either on the base 1 side or on the opposite side.

Further, the edge-bending portion 2 of the base 1 and the edge-bending portions 6a, 16a and 26a of the claw body 3 may be bent in a curl shape.

The portion P of the claw body 3 shown in FIG. 5 may be bent slightly upward in a tab shape so that the claw body 3 can be easily raised.

As described above, in the incense holder 10 of the present invention, the base 1 and the claw body 3 are separately prepared, so that it is not necessary to provide a hole in the base. Therefore, the incense holder 10 having excellent rigidity can be obtained.

Further, since it is not necessary to provide the holes in the base 1, the weight of the base 1 itself can be made larger than that in the case where the holes are provided. Therefore, even when supporting a large mosquito coil, it is possible to obtain the incense holder 10 having excellent placement stability.

Further, since it is not necessary to provide a hole in the base 1, it is not necessary to catch a finger or the like in this hole, which facilitates handling.

Further, since the base 1 and the pawl 3 can be prepared separately, the shape of the pawl 3 is less restricted by the shape of the base 1 than in the conventional example. That is, the degree of freedom in designing the claw body 3 can be increased more than in the conventional example. Therefore, it is possible to easily change the shape of the claw body 3 according to the needs of the purchaser.

In addition, since the edge bending portions 6a, 16a, 26a are provided at least on the outer peripheral edge portion of the intermediate portion 6 of the claw body 3, it is possible to further prevent the user's fingers from being injured in this portion, and It is possible to obtain the incense holder 10 with further improved safety.

Further, since the edge bending portion 2 is also provided at the outer peripheral edge portion of the base 1, it is possible to further prevent the user's fingers from being injured even in this portion.
