Description

  The present invention relates to a name plate on which tree names, tree species, and the like are described, and more particularly to a name plate for trees used by being wound around a tree trunk.

  Conventionally, a tree or the like planted on a walking path in a botanical garden or a park has been connected with a name plate on which the tree name, tree type, or the like is written by a wire or the like, or is set up as a signboard. Such a name plate for trees is used for obtaining simple information about the names of trees and trees. However, if the name tag is tied to the trunk of the tree with wire such as wire or wire, when the tree grows and the trunk to which the name tag is tied becomes thick, the wire will bite into the trunk of the tree and damage the tree. Will be disturbed.

  In such a case, it is troublesome because the wire such as a wire that has digged into the trunk of the tree must be cut and the name tag must be changed. In some cases, the wire rods penetrate deep into the trunk of the tree, and the cutting work may damage the tree.

  For such problems, conventionally, a name plate main body, a flexible wire having an outer peripheral surface formed by a friction member attached to the name tag main body, and both ends of the wire from the openings at both ends. For a tree composed of a tube member that is inserted and the outer peripheral surfaces of both ends of the inserted wire are in contact with the inner peripheral surface having friction and the both ends of the wire are in contact with each other. A name plate has been proposed (Patent Document 1).

  And in patent document 1, the both ends of a wire are mutually latched by the friction with the synthetic resin which forms the outer peripheral part of a wire, and the inner wall surface of a synthetic resin tube, and the friction between the synthetic resins of the both ends of a wire. ing. When the tensile force acting on the wire is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, both ends of the wire overcome the frictional forces and slide in the direction of being pulled out of the tube relative to the tube, thereby forming the wire. The diameter of the ring is expanded.

JP-A-9-171351

  However, in the device described in Patent Document 1, since the friction surface between the wires or between the wire and the tube is a part of the circumferential surface, it is difficult to adjust and maintain a predetermined friction value, and it is used for many years. There is a risk that it will deteriorate and stop functioning.

  Moreover, even if it can be made to expand according to the thickness of the trunk of a tree, it can only remove a conventional obstruction factor and cannot produce a special effect such as observing the degree of growth of the tree.

  The present invention has been made to solve such problems, and can be used for a long time without hindering the growth of the tree or damaging the bark, and the growth of the tree can be observed. The purpose is to provide a name plate for trees.

  The feature of the nameplate for trees according to the present invention is the nameplate for trees that is wound around the trunk of the tree and displays the name of the tree, and can be bent along the outer circumference of the trunk of the tree. A name plate main body having a flexibility and an elastic force that can be restored moderately after being bent, and two vertical slit holes formed in parallel in the vicinity of both left and right sides, and a tree trunk The end of the name plate main body is flexible so that it can be wound along the outer peripheral shape, and one end formed in the shape of a long band is inserted into the inner vertical slit hole of the two vertical slit holes of the name plate main body. A belt-like belt that is inserted so as to pass through, and the other end is inserted into the outer vertical slit hole so as to pass through the back surface of the name plate main body, thereby generating an appropriate frictional force with the vertical slit hole. It is in the point.

  Further, in the present invention, the name plate main body and the belt-like belt are made of a rust-proof material, and a growth scale composed of a 3.14 cm pitch ruled line is formed in the longitudinal direction of the belt-like belt. Preferably it is formed.

  Further, in the present invention, it is appropriate that the belt-like belt is formed in a length that is wound around the trunk of the tree twice.

  According to the present invention, it can be used over a long period of time without hindering the growth of the tree or damaging the bark, and the growth state of the tree can also be observed.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of a name plate for trees according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. A name plate 1 for trees according to the present embodiment includes a name plate main body 2 on which a tree name and a tree species are described, and a belt belt 3 on which the name plate main body 2 is wound around a tree trunk and the growth of the tree can be observed. Has been.

  To explain each configuration in more detail, each of the name plate main body 2 and the belt-like belt 3 is made of stainless steel that is not easily rusted or deteriorated, and is made of a material having environmental resistance strong against rain and snow. Yes.

  Further, the name plate main body 2 is formed in a moderately curved thin plate rectangular shape, and has flexibility capable of bending along the outer peripheral shape of the trunk of the tree. Has elastic force to restore. This makes it easy to attach to the trunk of a tree, and even a somewhat distorted trunk can be brought into close contact with the outer circumference of the trunk.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the name plate main body 2 is formed with two longitudinal slit holes 2a and 2b which are symmetrical in the vicinity of both sides in parallel. These vertical slit holes 2 a and 2 b are formed to have dimensions that allow the belt-like belt 3 to be inserted.

  The belt-like belt 3 is flexible and can be wound along the outer periphery of the tree trunk, and is formed in a long belt shape. One end of the belt-like belt 3 is inserted into the inner vertical slit hole 2a of the two vertical slit holes 2a, 2b of the name plate main body 2 so as to pass through the back surface of the name plate main body, and the other end is arranged on the outer vertical length. It is inserted through the slit hole 2b so as to pass through the back surface of the name plate main body 2. Thereby, an appropriate frictional force is generated between the belt-like belt 3 and the longitudinal slit holes 2a and 2b.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the belt-like belt 3 is formed with a growth scale 3a having a pitch of 3.14 cm in the longitudinal direction by laser ruled lines. As a result, when the trunk of the tree becomes thicker by 1 cm in diameter, the belt-like belt 3 is loosened and the growth scale 3a is shifted by one scale, which is a measure of the degree of growth of the tree.

  Furthermore, since the belt-like belt 3 is formed with a plate thickness of 0.5 mm and a width of 20 mm, it can be easily wound around the trunk. The length of the belt-like belt 3 is basically such that it is wound twice around the trunk of the tree.

  Below, the effect of the name board 1 for trees of this embodiment is demonstrated.

  When winding the name plate 1 for trees of this embodiment around a tree, first, the belt-like belt 3 is passed through the inner vertical slit hole 2a among the two vertical slit holes 2a, 2b of the name plate main body 2. In this case, one end of the belt-like belt 3 is inserted from the front side of one vertical slit hole 2a, passed through the back side, and passed from the back side to the front side of the other vertical slit hole 2a.

  Next, the belt-like belt 3 is wound around the tree once and then inserted into the outer vertical slit hole 2b. In this case, the belt-like belt 3 is inserted from the front side of one vertical slit hole 2b, passed through the back side, passed through the inner side of the belt-like belt 3 previously inserted, and inserted into the other vertical slit hole 2b.

  Thereafter, the belt-like belt 3 is tightly fastened to the trunk of the tree, and then the name plate main body 2 is bent so as to conform to the outer peripheral shape of the trunk. Since the name plate main body 2 is curved with one hand and can be easily moved along the belt-like belt 3, the name plate main body 2 can be easily positioned and tightened.

According to this embodiment as described above,
1. It can be used for a long time without hindering the growth of trees or damaging the bark.
2. Since the growth scale 3a with a pitch of 3.14 cm is marked on the belt 3 by a laser, it is difficult to disappear and the growth of trees can be easily observed.
3. As the band 3 loosens with the growth of the tree, it does not cut into the bark.
4). No nails or tools are required for installation, and winding work is easy.
5. It can produce effects such as being strong against wind and rain.

  In addition, the name plate 1 for trees which concerns on this invention is not limited to the Example mentioned above, It can change suitably. For example, the name plate 1 for trees of the present embodiment uses stainless steel, but may be appropriately changed as long as it has a rust prevention effect and environmental resistance and has a suitable flexibility.
