Conventional container folders have a single inner diameter, but the standards for containers for beverages and the like are not standardized, and containers of various sizes and external shapes exist on the market. For this reason, it is necessary to prepare container folders of a plurality of sizes in accordance with the specifications of the containers to be used, and the versatility of the container folder is low.
Even if the outer diameter of the container does not match the inner diameter of the container holder, it can still be used as long as it does not fall out of the insertion hole. However, in this case, if a gap is created between the outer circumference of the container and the container holder, the container will shake during walking and the contents will easily spill out. Furthermore, if the inner diameter of the container holder is small and the holding position of the container is too low, there is a risk that the container will separate from the container holder and fall.

An object of the present invention is to provide a container folder that can solve the above problems.

The container folder of the present invention has an upper edge, a lower edge, two upper edges extending downward from both sides of the upper edge, and two lower edges extending upward from both sides of the lower edge. A bandage comprising two protrusions connecting an upper edge and a lower edge, and at least two insertion holes formed near the two protrusions, the bandage having the two protrusions close to each other. a bandage wound into a cylindrical shape so that the bandage and at least one strap having both ends connected to a plurality of hanging pieces, and the connecting angle between the upper edge and the upper edge and the connecting angle between the lower edge and the lower edge are obtuse angles. , and the lower edge is longer than the upper edge, and the knot of the fastening string is formed by a sliding knot.

The container holder of the present invention may have a strap length of 40 cm or more and 60 cm or less.

In the container holder of the present invention, a transparent window may be provided in at least a portion of the bandage.

The container holder of the present invention can exhibit at least one of the following effects due to the above configuration.
<1> A single container folder can be used for containers of various sizes and shapes. Therefore, the container folder has high versatility and is excellent in convenience.
<2> The inner diameter can be easily adjusted to match the size of the container by simply sliding the knot of the fastening string.
<3> By tightening the fastening string, the inner surface of the bandage can be brought into close contact with the outer periphery of the container. Therefore, the container can be held securely.
<4> Since the size is adjustable, it is possible to stably hold not only cylindrical containers but also containers of various external shapes.

Hereinafter, the container folder of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[Container folder]
<1> Overall configuration (Figure 1)
The container holder 1 is a tool for hanging and holding a cup-shaped container A.
The container holder 1 includes a bandage 10 wound into a cylindrical shape, at least one fastening string 20 connected to the bandage 10 and tied into a loop, and a plurality of hanging pieces provided on the bandage 10. 30 and at least one strap 40 connected to the hanging piece 30.
One feature of the container holder 1 is that the knot of the fastening string 20 is formed by a sliding knot, so that containers A of different sizes can be reliably held with a simple operation.

<1.1> Container (Figure 1)
The container A held by the container holder 1 has a generally cylindrical cup shape.
Specifically, it may be, for example, a tumbler for a take-out drink, a paper cup, a plastic cup, a plastic bottle, a baby bottle, or the like. Further, the contents of container A are not limited to drinks, but may also be cup-shaped snacks, light meals, etc.
Note that although the container holder 1 is a tool for storing the container A, it can also be used as a secondary use to store a smartphone or the like.

<2> Bandage (Figure 2)
The wrapping band 10 is a band-shaped member that wraps around the outer periphery of the container A.
The bandage 10 has a generally horizontally elongated hexagonal shape in a plan view, and includes an upper edge 10a, a lower edge 10b, two left and right upper edges 10c, two left and right lower edges 10d, and two left and right protrusions 11. and.
Two insertion holes 12 are inserted near the two protrusions 11 .
In this example, suede is used as the material for the bandage 10. Since suede has a fine and dense surface structure, it is suitable for the bandage 10 because the container A is hard to slip and has high heat retention. However, the material of the bandage 10 is not limited to suede, but may also be denim, canvas, natural leather, synthetic leather, or the like.

<2.1> Shape of side edge (Figure 2)
The side edges of the dressing band 10 each include an upper edge 10c extending downward from the side edge of the upper edge 10a, and a lower edge 10d extending upward from the side edge of the lower edge 10b. A protrusion 11 is formed at the connection between the lower edge 10d and the lower edge 10d.
The upper edge 10c is shorter than the lower edge 10d, and the connecting angle between the upper edge 10a and the upper edge 10c forms an obtuse angle.
The lower edge 10d is longer than the upper edge 10c, and the connecting angle between the lower edge 10b and the lower edge 10d forms an obtuse angle.

<3> Tie string (Figure 2)
The fastening string 20 is a string-like member for fastening the wrapping band 10 wound into a cylindrical shape in a size-adjustable manner.
In this example, a spindle cord made of synthetic resin fiber is used as the fastening cord 20. The spindle cord has irregularities on its surface due to weaving, so it is difficult to slip when fastened, making it suitable. However, the fastening cord 20 is not limited to this, and may be a hammered cord, a twisted cord, a wax cord, or the like. Further, the material is not limited to synthetic resin, but may also be made of cotton or leather.
The two ends of the fastening string 20 extending from the loop portion are connected to the two insertion holes 12 and fastened with a sliding knot.

<3.1> Sliding Knot One feature of the container holder 1 of the present invention is that both ends of the fastening string 20 are tied with a sliding knot. A sliding knot is a knot that allows you to adjust the length and size of the loop by sliding the position of the knot.
A sliding knot can be provided, for example, by the following steps:
An intersection X is provided by placing the A end on top of the B end (FIG. 3A).
Slip the A end under the B end and pull it out to the back of the intersection X (Fig. 3B), and provide the upper loop part (Fig. 3C).
Dip the A end under the B end again and pull it out to the back of the intersection X. At this time, pull the A end to the right side of the first loop to form the second loop. Repeat the same operation to form four loops (Figure 3D).
Insert the tip of the A end into the fourth loop, connect the tip of the A end to the inside of the four loops along the B end, and pull it out from the first loop (Figure 3E).
Pull out the tip of the A-end and the proximal end of the A-end to tighten the four loops to form four consecutive knots (Figure 3F). This allows the four knots to tighten around the outer circumference of the B end and lock it in place using frictional force, and by pulling the B end while holding down the knots, the knot can be slid along the B end and the size of the loop can be adjusted. (Figure 3G).
Note that the number of knots in the sliding knot is not limited to four but may be any number as long as it is plural.

<4> Hanging piece (Figure 2)
The hanging piece 30 is a member for connecting the bandage 10 and the strap 40.
In this example, a combination of a tab 31 folded back and sewn to the upper edge 10a of the bandage 10 and a ring 32 passed through the tab 31 is used as the hanging piece 30.
In this example, the hanging pieces 30 are installed at intermediate positions between the center of the upper edge 10a and the left and right upper edges 10c of the wrapping band 10, respectively.
However, the number and structure of the hanging pieces 30 are not limited to this, and for example, three or more hanging pieces 30 may be provided.

<5> Strap (Figure 2)
The strap 40 is a string-like member for suspending the container A.
In this example, the strap 40 is a combination of a long belt 41 and connecting fittings 42 provided at both ends of the belt 41. The connecting fitting 42 is, for example, a hook clip. The two connecting fittings 42 are connected to the rings 32 of the hanging piece 30, respectively.
However, the structure of the strap 40 is not limited to this. For example, the belt may be made elastic with a buckle, or a chain or rope may be used instead of the belt.
The length of the strap 40 is preferably approximately 50 cm, more specifically approximately 40 cm or more and 60 cm or less. This is because if the length is less than 40 cm, the straw inserted into the container A may interfere with the user's elbow when the strap 40 is placed on the user's elbow, and if the length is more than 60 cm, the container A will shake a lot when walking. This is because there is a risk that the beverage inside may spill due to movement.

<6> How to use the container folder Container folder 1 is used, for example, as follows.
The bandage 10 is rolled into a cylindrical shape in advance. The knot at the A end of the fastening string 20 is shifted toward the tip side at the B end to widen the distance between the opposing protrusions 11.
The container A is placed inside the cylindrical bandage 10.
By lightly pressing the knot at the A end of the fastening string 20 with a finger and pulling the B end toward the distal end, the loop of the fastening string 20 is shortened and the interval between the protrusions 11 is narrowed. When the inner surface of the wrapping band 10 is in close contact with the outer periphery of the container A, the B end is released. This completes the holding of container A.
The user can carry the container A with its contents by wearing the strap 40 of the container holder 1 around his or her elbow or shoulder (FIG. 4).
When hanging container A, the weight of container A tries to expand the space between the protrusions 11, but the friction between the inner surface of the knot at end A and the outer periphery of end B, which are tied with a sliding knot, causes the tightening string to tighten. Movement of the knots 20 is suppressed, and the spacing between the protrusions 11 is maintained. This prevents the container A from sliding down.

[Example of bandage with transparent window]
In this example, the bandage 10 is provided with a transparent window 13 on the side (FIG. 5).
The transparent window 13 can be constructed by fitting a translucent acrylic sheet or the like into a part of the bandage 10.
The transparent window 13 allows the inside of the transparent container A to be viewed from outside the bandage 10, so the remaining amount of beverage or food in the container A can be known.
In addition, for example, during sports or festivals, members of the same team or group can store containers A of the same color or pattern in the container folder 1 and display them outside to create a sense of solidarity among the members. and strengthen the cohesiveness of members.
