Abstract

Provided is a grip auxiliary tool that can be retrofitted so that it does not slip through a hand when throwing and shaking a rod-shaped article. A ring-shaped mounting portion 2 of a grip auxiliary tool 1 integrally formed of an elastic material is inserted into a grip portion 41 of a penlight 4, and an inner surface of the mounting portion is brought into close contact with the grip portion by an elastic restoring force. The user of the penlight 4 puts a finger (usually an index finger or a middle finger) through the finger locking portion 3 when the strap 43 is passed through the wrist and the grip portion is gripped. When the user shakes the penlight and supports the penlight, the penlight is held in a state where it is passed through the finger locking portion, so that it is possible to prevent the penlight from being slipped off or thrown.

Description

  The present invention relates to a grip assisting tool that prevents a penlight or the like from falling off.

  At events and concerts, it is now widespread that audiences support their favorite teams and artists by holding a pen-shaped light (such as a concert light) in their hands and emitting light. In general, a penlight is a battery type light that emits light from an LED or the like, and a syrium (also referred to as a psyllium or chemical light) is an internal ampoule that breaks when the rod-shaped body is bent, and the two liquids mix. This refers to a chemiluminescent material that chemiluminescents. Although the unit price per one is cheap, it is a one-time-use disposable one because of its structure. On the other hand, the penlight can be used continuously by replacing the battery, and since it is a light that emits an electronically controlled LED, etc., it can be controlled in a variety of ways, such as its emission color and illuminance. it can. Penlights have a high degree of freedom in design, and product development with variations such as those tailored to the purpose and plan of each event / concert, and those by favorite artists is being carried out. Penlight is larger and more expensive than syrium, but it has resulted in tickling users' desire to purchase.

  Whether it is penlight or sylum, it is rod-shaped and is used by gripping the grip part of the handle with your hand, but if you shake it vigorously during cheering, it may slip out of your hand. This not only poses a risk that the swayed concert light will be thrown away from the hand and hit the audience around it, but it will also lead to the failure and damage of expensive penlights.

In order to prevent these problems, as shown in Patent Document 1, a strap is usually attached to the penlight and connected to the main body. The user prevents the penlight from falling off by putting a strap on his wrist.
However, even with the strap on, if you support your hands with a penlight that shakes or shakes your arms violently, the penlight slips out of your hand and is thrown away.

As an improvement measure, a concert light as shown in Non-Patent Document 1 is known. Although this concert light corresponds to a thylium, a grip portion is provided integrally with a container in which a luminescent liquid is stored. A hole through which an annular finger can pass is formed in a part of the grip portion, and the user can prevent the concert light from slipping out of the hand by passing the finger through the hole.
However, since the hole through which the finger passes is formed integrally with the main body at the time of manufacture, it cannot be used to prevent the drop-off of the existing penlight that is already in circulation.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a grip assisting tool that can be retrofitted and can be prevented from slipping out of a hand when an existing bar-shaped article such as a penlight is shaken.

  In order to solve the above-described problem, a grip assisting device of the present invention has a mounting portion that is attached to a grip portion of an article, and a finger locking portion that locks a user's finger to grip the article. It is characterized by that.

  Here, the mounting portion and the finger locking portion are preferably ring-shaped. Furthermore, it is preferable that the mounting portion and the finger locking portion are integrally formed of an elastic material, and the finger locking portion is formed in a direction perpendicular to the mounting portion.

  According to the grip assisting device of the present invention, since the mounting portion is attached to the grip portion of the rod-shaped article and the finger is engaged with the finger locking portion, it can be easily attached to the existing rod-shaped article by retrofitting the grip assisting device. . Further, when shaking the rod-shaped article, since the finger is locked in addition to the grip by the hand, there is an advantage that the rod-shaped article can be held in the hand more strongly.

FIG. 1 is a view showing a grip assisting tool according to an embodiment of the present invention. (A) is the perspective view seen from the top, (b) is a top view. FIG. 2 is an explanatory view showing a state in which a grip auxiliary tool showing an embodiment of the present invention is attached to a penlight. FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing a usage state of the grip assisting device according to the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a modified example of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing another modified example of the present invention.

    Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, the grip assisting tool 1 includes a ring-shaped mounting portion 2 that is mounted on a grip portion 41 of a penlight 4 (see FIG. 2) and a ring-shaped finger lock that holds a user's finger in place. It comprises a stop 3. The grip assisting tool 1 is integrally formed of an elastic material. The elastic material here is preferably a synthetic resin such as silicon rubber. The diameter of the ring of the mounting portion 2 is smaller than the diameter of the grip portion 41. The finger locking portion 3 only needs to have a diameter that allows a user's finger to pass through. The finger locking portion 3 is formed in a direction perpendicular to the mounting portion 2 so that the finger can be easily passed.

  FIG. 2 shows a state where the grip assisting tool 1 is attached to the penlight 4. The normal penlight 4 includes a grip part 41 that is held by a user's hand, a light part 42 that is lit, and a strap 43 that is used to prevent the dropout. The grip assisting tool 1 expands the ring-shaped mounting part 2 against its elasticity, inserts it into the grip part 41 of the penlight 4, and attaches the inner surface of the mounting part 2 to the grip part 41 by elastic restoring force. , Fixed to the grip part 41. Since a fixing tool such as a screw is not used, the grip assisting tool 1 is detachable and can be diverted to another penlight.

  FIG. 3 shows a state in which the grip assisting tool 1 is attached to the penlight 4 and used. The user 5 of the penlight 4 passes a finger (usually an index finger or a middle finger) through the finger locking portion 3 when the strap 43 is passed through the wrist and the grip portion 41 is gripped. When the user 5 supports the user 5 by shaking the penlight 4, the penlight 4 is held by the hand while the finger 5 of the user 5 is locked to the finger locking portion 3. It is possible to prevent slipping and throwing.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and can be implemented by appropriately changing the configuration of each part without departing from the spirit of the invention.
For example, as shown in FIG. 4A, the decoration 31 can be provided on the finger locking portion 3 so that the decoration 31 can be seen from the outside while the grip assisting tool 1 is used. Moreover, as shown in FIG.4 (b), the logo 21 can be formed in the mounting part 2 by embossing or debossing. As a result, the design can be varied.

  Moreover, as shown in FIG. 5, it can also be set as the shape which makes the attachment or detachment to the grip part 41 of the penlight 4 easy by making the mounting part 2 into a U shape or C shape instead of a ring shape. Further, the finger locking portion 3 is also formed in a U shape or C shape instead of a ring shape, whereby the index finger and the middle finger can be locked and the finger can be moved freely.
