Description

  The present invention relates to a cage for watching and observing animals such as beasts, small animals, and birds, or a net used for a fence when watching ball games such as baseball through the fence.

As described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-346467 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-8096, as facilities for breeding animals such as beasts, small animals, and birds at zoos, etc. The cages covered with iron bars and wire mesh are used.
Even when watching sports such as baseball, in order to avoid a direct hit with a ball or the like, watching through a fence is adopted, and a wire net or a net is sometimes used as a material for the fence.
When using a wire mesh as a material for these cages and fences, there are the following disadvantages.

If you try to bend the conventional rhombus wire mesh, the tangled wires will overlap each other so that they will overlap each other, so it is difficult to bend freely or maintain the shape even when bent. It is not very suitable for forming a three-dimensional novel shape.
Therefore, as a conventional cage for storing animals, a rectangular parallelepiped-shaped cage is generally used, and the facility is not interesting in appearance.
In addition, when a spectator appreciates a ball game or the like, it has been desired that the shape of the fence be flexible and meet various demands.

In addition, if they are iron grids or wire meshes, their rigidity is too high. For example, when a bird flies and hits the iron lattice or wire mesh, the animals may be injured by the impact.
For this purpose, it is conceivable to use a net made of a twisted yarn made of a synthetic material such as a synthetic resin and knitted into a net.
When a bird or the like collides with the net, the net will absorb the shock and absorb less injury, but there is anxiety that the reliability of the cage will be insufficient.
For example, some small animals may bite or crush the net and cut it out of the cage, and if it is a slightly larger animal, it may be possible to break through the net by hitting the body and escape.
In addition, in the case of a ball game such as baseball, an accident may occur in which the ball directly hits the fence net and is damaged or pierced.
If these nets are made of synthetic resin, constant maintenance is required and the life is relatively short.

Also, in conventional cages, when a spectator observes animals, if it is an iron lattice or wire mesh, it will block the audience's line of sight, or the iron lattice or wire mesh is too impressive in the field of view and stored inside There has been a problem in that it is difficult to see the observed animals well.
This is the same for appreciation of sports, and it is desirable that the fence not block the view as much as possible.

  The problem to be solved is that it was difficult to make the shape of the cage and fence into a novel design, and it was injured by an impact such as an animal hitting, and further, spectators and sports that observe animals It was difficult for spectators to watch and see animals and sports through cages and fences.

The net for an animal appreciation cage or sports appreciation fence according to the present invention is a net used for an animal appreciation cage or sports appreciation fence for viewing and observation, including beasts, small animals, birds, etc.
It is made by bundling two metal strands, making a knot with a fastening knot, and knitting it into a net.
The net for the animal appreciation cage or the sports appreciation fence according to the present invention uses a stainless steel strand as the metal edge.
Furthermore, the net for an animal appreciation cage or a sports appreciation fence according to the present invention has a dark color plated surface.

The present invention is configured as described above, and can achieve any one of the following effects.
<a> Because it is a net made of metal strands knitted in a mesh shape, the mesh shape can be freely deformed into parallelograms vertically and horizontally, so that it is highly flexible and can be maintained. It is easy to adapt to the original shape, and can be freely adapted to the shape of cages and fences with a novel and interesting design, making it easy to construct, and building sports facilities such as quaint zoo facilities and stadiums. .
<B> Because it is a metal net, it is less necessary for maintenance and has a long life.
<C> Compared with wire mesh made of iron lattice or ordinary wire, nets using stranded wires are elastically deformed so that the rhombus shape of the mesh becomes parallelograms vertically and horizontally, so that even if animals or birds collide, the mesh Since the shape is freely deformed and the net itself flexes flexibly to absorb the impact, it is difficult for animals to be injured.
In addition, the ball that hits it becomes flexible, so that it is hard to break or damage.
<D> The strength of the stranded wire itself is large, and even if an animal bites or beats or a ball hits directly, the risk of cutting or breaking is extremely low.
<E> By applying dark color plating to the surface of the stranded wire, it becomes a net that is difficult for the audience to see, and does not hinder observation of animals, competitions, and games inside.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on embodiments shown in the drawings.
<1> Stranded wire In the present invention, a metallic strand 1 is used.
The embodiment uses a stainless steel strand 1 manufactured by twisting a plurality of stainless steel wires, that is, a wire made of a stainless steel wire.
Since it is the stranded wire 1, it is easy to return to the shape and can be bent into various shapes as compared with the case where it is difficult to return the shape when bent like a wire mesh made of a normal wire rod.
Further, the surface of the stranded wire 1 is subjected to dark color plating such as brown, black or gray.

<2> Net A large number of the strands 1 are appropriately bundled apart at an interval to form a knot 2 by a stop knot, and the whole is knitted into a net to form a net A.
As described above, since the stranded wire 1 itself is annealed, the net A has a high shape restoring force and can be bent into any shape.
The mesh size S of the net A is about several centimeters when the net A is straightened, although it depends on the purpose of use, that is, the size and type of the animal to be stored.

<3> Cage FIG. 2 shows a bird cage 3 constructed using the net A according to the present invention. After the frame 4 is assembled with a steel frame, the net A is stretched between the frames 4. Set up.
Even if the skeleton 4 draws a novel curve etc., the mesh of the net A can be freely deformed into a parallelogram extending vertically and horizontally to respond relatively flexibly, so it fits well with the cage 3 with an original design. You can get fun as a unique facility.
Further, the bent shape of the net A can be maintained, and the construction becomes remarkably easy.
Moreover, since the net | network A uses the strand wire 1 which gave the dark color plating, it is hard for a spectator to visually recognize.
In other words, the animal can be observed better without the stranded wire 1 entering the sight of the audience and without hindering appreciation and observation.

<4> Shock absorption and cutting resistance Birds fly in the cage 3, but even if they collide with the net A, the net A is synergistic, so the shock is absorbed and there is very little injuries. Become.
Further, in a cage containing beasts and small animals, even if those animals bite or twist the stranded wire 1 of the net A, they are not cut.

  The net according to the present invention can be used not only for cages for watching animals but also for fences used for watching sports such as baseball and soccer.
