Description

The present invention relates to a lid knob used for handling a kettle lid, a kettle lid, and the like.
In particular, the present invention relates to a lid knob in which a pattern is formed by bonding gold foil or platinum foil (platinum foil) to the surface.

Iron bottles and the like are made of iron castings and are used as water heaters, but the lids are also often made of cast iron, and when the water is boiled, it becomes hot and cannot be picked with bare hands.
In recent years, iron bottles with precious metals such as gold and silver, and high-quality water heaters made of gold or silver have been proposed.

  In this kind of water heater, since the lid has a protruding knob having a neck portion with a reduced diameter on the base side, the lid is handled by hooking the neck portion from both sides and lifting the lid. A tool called a pick is used.

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a lid cover for a pot lid, but those conventionally used are inferior in design and have no sense of quality.
The present applicant has proposed a lid knob having a previously engraved design (Patent Document 2), but the present invention is a further improvement.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a lid picking that is easy to use and excellent in design and durability.

  The lid knob according to the present invention is a lid knob for taking a lid of an iron bottle or the like, and includes a U-shaped hook part and a handle part thicker than the hook part. The pattern portion has an engraved pattern portion, and the pattern portion has a plating layer as a base, and a gold foil or a platinum foil is pasted thereon.

  Here, the gold foil means a pure gold or an alloy thereof, which has been processed into a foil having a thickness of 2 to 5 mm / 10,000 through a process such as gold plating, supernatant, foil punching, etc., and platinum foil is the same as gold foil. It is the one made into a foil through the above process.

In the present invention, since the handle portion is thicker than the hook portion, a solid feeling is obtained and it is easy to use.
In addition, the pattern is engraved, and the concave portion has a plating layer as an underlayer, and a gold foil or platinum foil is pasted thereon with an adhesive or the like, so that there is a sense of quality and the foil peels off by rubbing etc. To prevent.

In the present invention, it is more preferable that the gold foil or the platinum foil is overlapped and laminated more than twice, and when the engraving of the pattern is made by hand, the engraved shape becomes uneven and a high-quality feeling is obtained.
In the present invention, the hooking part and the handle part of the lid picking may be separate bodies or may be integrally manufactured by casting or the like.

In the present invention, there is no restriction on the design.
For example, it may be a plant or animal because it has been popular in Japan for a long time. The design part is a twig with a flower, the twig part is gold-plated, and the flower part is platinum-plated. Examples are given as examples.
Further, the U-shaped hook portion may have a crab scissor shape or an insect scissor shape such as a beetle.

  The lid picker according to the present invention is engraved with a design on the handle, and gold plating or silver plating is formed as an underlayer according to the foil on the surface side, and gold foil or platinum foil is pasted on it. It is easy to use as it has a feeling and the foil is difficult to peel off.

The external perspective view of the lid picking concerning this invention is shown. (A) is a plan view, (b) is a side view, and (c) is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA. The cross-sectional structure of the surface portion is shown. Sectional drawing of a carved part is shown. The enlarged view of a design part is shown.

  An example of the structure of the lid knob according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

A perspective view of a lid knob 10 according to the present invention is shown in FIG.
The lid knob 10 has a handle portion 11 and a hook portion 12 formed integrally therewith.
The hook portion 12 is formed in a substantially U shape by a pair of claw portions 12a and 12b into which the neck portion of the knob portion of the lid of the iron bottle is inserted.
On the base side of the U-shaped hook 12, there is a substantially circular mounting recess 12 c that is slightly larger than the distance d between the pair of claws 12 a and 12 b.
Thereby, the knob part of the lid is stably held.

The handle portion 11 is thicker than the hook portion 12 as shown in a side view in FIG. 2 (b), and is a flat and slightly thick elliptical cross section as shown in FIG. 2 (c). It is shaped and easy to pick by hand.
As shown in FIG. 2 and an enlarged cross-sectional view of the engraved portion, the handle portion 11 has an engraved portion 13 by hand engraving.

A cross section of the engraved portion 13 is shown in FIG. 4, and a cross-sectional view of FIG.
A gold plating layer by electroplating is formed as a base plating layer 1a on the surface of the substrate 1, and a polyurethane-based adhesive is thinly applied thereon (first adhesive layer 2), the gold foil is pressed and bonded, and the first foil layer It was set to 3.
The adhesive was a two-component adhesive consisting of a main agent and a curing agent, and was diluted with a diluent.
A gold foil was pressed onto it and bonded together.
In this state, it was dried for about 1 week.
Next, an adhesive was thinly applied onto the first foil layer 3 in the same manner as described above to form the second adhesive layer 4, and a gold foil was bonded thereon to form the second foil layer 5.
In this state, it was further dried for one week.
The lid pick produced in this manner did not peel off the pattern portion even after long-term use.

  In the above devised product, platinum foil was used in place of the gold foil, and silver plating was used for the base plating layer. As a result, the platinum foil did not peel off even when used continuously like the gold foil product.

The pattern shown in the present example is an example in which the gold foil 5a is double bonded to the branch part and the platinum foil 5b is double bonded to the plum flower part. There are no restrictions on the combination.
In addition, when a gold foil or a platinum foil is pressed into the engraved portion, the adhesive layer may be partially omitted if the engraved depth is deep or the engraved width is small.
