Description

  The present invention relates to a filth holder for a vehicle, and more particularly to a filth holder that is easy to mount and can be carried while holding the filth outside the vehicle.

  With the recent pet boom, the number of dog owners has increased significantly. When keeping a dog, it is essential to take the dog for a walk in order to allow the dog to exercise moderately. Usually, the owner carries a plastic bag for a walk, and if the dog dung, the manner is to pick up the dung and put it in a plastic bag and take it home. In reality, however, many owners have poor manners, such as leaving dog feces or burying them on the spot. The neglected dog feces not only impair the beauty, but also have sanitation problems such as odor. In addition, dog feces have the danger of transmitting parasites such as roundworms and tapeworms to humans, pointing out the possibility that parasites escape from the left feces into the ground and enter the human body touching the soil Has been. As a result, the problem of dog feces is seen as a kind of environmental problem, and some local governments have established regulations that impose fines on owners who have left dog feces. However, there is a limit to calling attention to owners with bad manners by the efforts of local governments and environmental groups, so it is necessary for people who own dogs to appeal to each other about manners. is there.

  In addition, since the number of roads and parks suitable for walking dogs is decreasing year by year, there are many opportunities for people to take their dogs to a suitable place for a walk. If the dog dung while taking a walk, the owner must take the plastic bag with the dog's dung into the car and take it home. Particularly when the temperature is high, a bad odor is easily filled in the sealed interior space. There are also many people who feel resistance to bringing bags with filth into their cars. Therefore, when you go for a walk on the dog, even if you take the dog's excrement back home properly, if you take the dog in a car and take it for a walk, leave the feces and leave it at home. Some people may not take it home.

  There are many commercially available roof carriers for loading luggage outside the vehicle, but they are mainly used for loading large loads such as surfboards and camping equipment, so they are not suitable for loading filth such as dog feces. It is. Patent document 1 is disclosing the vehicle outside loading apparatus which can be attached outside a vehicle using a magnet. However, since this external loading device is a device that is attached to the roof of a car and used to transport long objects (such as umbrellas and skis), it also stores filth such as dog feces. It is unsuitable for use.

  There are many foreign objects, not just dog feces, that you do not want to load in the car. For example, there are many cases where there is resistance to putting fishing bait, caught fish, infant diapers, soiled plants, insects, etc. in the car.

  Accordingly, a first object of the present invention is to provide a holder that can easily hold and carry filth that is not desired to be carried in the vehicle. In addition, a second object of the present invention is to provide a simple filth holder for holding a bag containing dog feces and taking it home when the dog is taken in a car and taken for a walk. There is. The third object of the present invention is to provide a filth holder that can call attention to a poor owner who does not bring back dog feces.

Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention

According to state-like of the present invention, there is provided a waste holder for holding a bag attached to the vehicle body by accommodating the waste, except the roof of the car, a pedestal with a flexible, provided on the base a fixture for removably attaching the car body except the roof pedestal Te, provided on the pedestal, and a gripper for gripping a portion of the bag accommodating the waste, which is gripped by the gripper provided on the pedestal waste retainer comprising: a hold portion that holds the bag, is provided.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, the filth holder can be detachably attached to the body of the vehicle with the fixture, and the filth can be easily held and transported outside the vehicle. Further, since the pedestal is flexible, even a curved surface, a dent, or a protruding portion of the body can be deformed according to the shape of the body, so that the pedestal can be securely attached to the body by the fixture. Moreover, the said holding | maintenance part may be a net | network and the said fixture may be a magnet, a suction cup, or a hook, for example.

In the filth holder of the present invention, the fixture may be a magnet for detachably attaching the pedestal to the vehicle body excluding the roof by magnetic force.

Dog owners are in the habit of collecting the dog feces in a plastic bag to be used, such as in supermarkets and convenience stores, fouling target holder of the present invention is easily grasped a portion of the bag accommodating such filth can do. In particular, if the gripping part is a clip or a member with a slit, the knot of such a bag can be sandwiched or suspended.

According to the present invention, a plurality of filth holders may be used to attach a filth holder that can be attached so as to connect the grips. By using a plurality of filth holders, it is possible to hold a relatively large object that cannot be held by a single filth holder. Moreover, according to this invention, the said net | network may be provided with respect to the said base so that attachment or detachment is possible, and the said base may be formed with the rubber material or the cloth material. According to the present invention, the shape of the flexible pedestal may be a shape imitating a dog's foot or a dog's footprint. By doing so, information that the vehicle is carrying a dog can be transmitted. In addition, it is possible to appeal to pet dogs with manners to bring back dog feces and contribute to environmental protection.

  In this application, the term “filth” is not only so-called common filth such as dog excrement and used diapers, but also resists being brought into the car, such as fishing bait, soiled plants and insects. It is meant to include such foreign objects.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the filth holder of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

<First specific example>
As shown in FIGS. 1A to 1C, a filth holder 100 according to the present invention includes a pedestal 1 made of a flexible material such as rubber, and a magnet ( A magnet) 2, a grip 3 attached to the surface 1 a of the pedestal 1, and a net (holding part) 4 for holding the bag 5.

  The pedestal 1 has a substantially regular hexagonal shape with a side length of about 10 cm, and is made of a flexible material such as rubber. The material of the base 1 is preferably a rubber material such as natural rubber, urethane rubber, or neoprene rubber, but is preferably a cloth material such as a canvas or a synthetic fiber cloth because it can be easily washed after use.

  The magnet 2 is a circular ferrite magnet having a diameter of about 2 cm, and is attached to the back surface 1 b of the portion corresponding to each vertex of the pedestal 1. A neodymium magnet is more preferable in that the magnet material is strong in magnetic force and can be downsized.

  The grip portion 3 is a U-shaped plastic member provided in the upper center of the pedestal 1, a flat base portion 3 a attached to the pedestal 1, a support portion 3 c protruding from one end of the base portion 3 a, One end has a leaf spring portion 3b that communicates with the support portion 3c and extends substantially parallel to the base portion 3a, and a slit 11 is defined between the base portion 3a and the leaf spring portion 3b. The other end of the leaf spring portion 3b is an open end, and a barb 12 is provided.

  The net 4 as a holding portion is a mesh cloth made of nylon, and is attached to the surface 1a of the base 1 so as to form a bag having an upper portion as an opening. The net 4 is placed on the lower side of the grip portion 3 and attached so as to cover the lower half of the base 1. The net 4 may be fixed to the base 1 by sewing or the like, and may be detachable by a hook or a button. The latter case is convenient in that only the net can be cleaned.

  As shown in FIG. 1 (d), the filth holder 100 of the present invention is attached to the body of the vehicle using the magnetic force of the magnet 2 provided on the pedestal 1. As shown in this figure, it is preferable to attach to the rear part of the vehicle body such as a back door part, a trunk roof part, a rear gate part, and a rear fender part of a car, but the attachment place is not limited to these. For example, it can be mounted on front fenders, side fenders, and doors except for the roof.

  Next, the usage method of the filth holder 100 of this specific example is demonstrated.

  As described above, people who walk dogs often bring bags such as plastic bags used at supermarkets and convenience stores. When the dog has dung, the dung is stored in the plastic bag 5 that is brought, and then the opening of the bag 5 is tied and sealed. At that time, a knot is formed at a place where the mouth of the bag 5 is tied. Since the width of the slit 11 of the grip portion 3 is smaller than the diameter of the knot that is formed when the bag 5 is tied, inserting the lower side of the knot of the bag 5 that tied the opening into the slit 11 allows the slit 11 of FIG. ), The knot at the opening of the bag 5 can be hooked or hung on the grip 3 and held. Further, since the opening 12 of the grip portion 3 is provided with a barb 12, even when the bag 5 inserted into the slit 11 slides sideways, it does not easily fall off.

  When holding the bag 5 containing dog excrement in the holding part 3, it is expected that the bag 5 will largely swing back and forth and left and right due to the shaking of the car. If the shaking becomes too large, the bag 5 containing the dog feces may come off the grip portion 3. In this specific example, a net 4 is provided as a bag 5 or a filth holder, so that the bag 5 gripped by the grip portion 3 can be received by the net 4. As shown in FIG. 1 (c), by holding the knot at the opening of the bag 5 with the grip 3 and pressing the bag 5 using the net 4, the bag 5 can be securely attached even when the car shakes greatly. Can be held. Even if the knot of the bag 5 is removed from the grip portion 3, the bag 5 is held by the net 4, so that the bag 5 can be prevented from falling on the road.

  Since the dirt holder 100 of the present invention uses a magnet, it can be easily attached to and detached from the body of the vehicle, and unlike the seal or adhesive, there is an advantage that no trace remains. Further, as described above, the filth holder of the present invention is used by being attached to the body of the car, particularly the rear part of the car body, so that the pedestal 1 is made of a flexible material such as rubber so as to follow the curved surface part of these parts. Made of a certain material. The filth holder of the present invention is required to be easily removable and washable from the standpoint of holding filth. In this respect, the material of the base 1 is preferably a cloth material such as a canvas or a synthetic fiber cloth as described above. Not only are these materials flexible, they also have the advantage of being washable. Further, when the magnet 2 is attached to the body of the car using the magnetic force, it is strong enough to resist the force in the direction away from the attached surface. There is no fear of coming off. However, when a force that moves along the attached surface is applied, there is a risk of lateral displacement. Therefore, in order to make it difficult to cause such a lateral shift, it is desirable that the material of the pedestal 1 has a large friction with the body surface. Also in this respect, it is preferable to use a cloth material having a high frictional force as the material of the pedestal 1 against the rubber material or the body.

  The opening at the top of the net 4 may be opened and closed with a fastener or the like, and is more preferably a waterproof fastener. The material of the net 4 may be a stretchable material such as a mesh knitted with a rubber string. The material of the grip portion 3 is not limited to plastic, and may be, for example, metal as long as the leaf spring portion 3b plays a role as a leaf spring. Further, as shown in FIG. 1 (d), a string attachment hole 6b is provided in the upper portion of the base 1, and a string is formed through the string 6a. It can be hooked and fixed. By fixing to the rear wiper or the like in this way, it is possible to prevent the filth holder 100 from falling even if the magnet is removed from the vehicle body.

  First to third modified examples of the grip portion 3 of the filth holder 100 shown in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. In these modified examples, the structure other than the grip portion 3 is the same as that of the first specific example shown in FIG.

[First Modification]
As shown in FIG. 2A, the gripping portion 13 is a flat base portion 13a attached to the pedestal 1 shown in FIG. 1, and extends from the surface of the base portion 13a vertically to the surface and in the horizontal direction. A flat slit plate 13b is provided. A slit 14 extending in the longitudinal direction is formed in the slit plate 13b. One end 14a of the slit 14 is an open end, and brush-like hairs 15 are implanted so as to cover the slit 14 at both edge portions defining the slit 14 of the slit plate 13b. The width of the slit 14 is sufficiently narrower than the diameter of the knot that is formed when the opening of the bag is tied. Therefore, by inserting the lower side of the knot of the bag tied with the opening into the slit 14, the knot of the opening of the bag can be hooked or hung on the grip 13 and held. Further, since the brush-like hair 15 covering the slit 14 becomes a resistance that the bag slides in the slit 14, the bag inserted into the slit 14 does not easily fall off.

[Second Modification]
As shown in FIG. 2 (b), the gripping portion 23 employs a corrugated slit 24 instead of the slit 14 of the slit plate 13b shown in FIG. 2 (a). One end 24a of the slit 24 is an open end. The shape of the slit 24 is not a straight line but a waveform of a waveform, and a wide portion and a narrow portion with a slit interval are alternately formed along the longitudinal direction. Even in a portion having a wide slit interval, the slit interval is smaller than the size of the knot of the bag. Therefore, by inserting the bag with the opening part tied into the slit 24, the grip part 23 can be caught by being hooked or suspended from the knot of the opening part of the bag. Further, the portion having the narrow slit interval prevents the bag from sliding in the slit 24, and the bag inserted into the slit 24 does not easily fall off. For this reason, it is not necessary to use the brush-like hair employ | adopted in the 1st modification. In addition, since a plurality of narrow and narrow portions are formed alternately, a plurality of the bags can be fixed.

[Third Modification]
As shown in FIG. 3, the holding part 33 has a flat base 33a attached to the pedestal 1 shown in FIG. 1, a carabiner 34, and a fixture 33b for attaching the carabiner 34 to the substrate 33a. The carabiner 34 has a hook 35 whose one end is fixed to a fulcrum 36 that is urged and slid and whose other end rotates inside the carabiner. The size of the ring of the carabiner 34 is smaller than the size of the knot at the opening of the bag. Therefore, by pushing the hook 35 and passing the knot of the opening of the bag through the ring of the carabiner 34, the knot of the opening of the bag can be hooked or suspended and held. Moreover, since there is a ring of the handle part of the bag at the upper part of the knot of the opening part of the bag, the ring part may be hooked on the carabiner or suspended.

[Fourth Modification]
As shown in FIG. 4, the gripping portion 43 includes a flat base portion 43 a and a clip 41 that are attached to the base 1 shown in FIG. 1. The clip 41 includes a base 44 attached to the base portion 43 a, an arm 47 that is rotatably attached to one end of the base 44, and a lock 45 attached to the other end of the base 44. A convex portion on a semi-cylinder extending in the longitudinal direction is formed in the central portion 46 of the base 44, and the convex portion has a shape that meshes with a semi-cylindrical concave portion extending in the longitudinal direction formed in the arm 47. . The lock 45 is provided with a claw-shaped protrusion 45a, and a hole 47a having a shape that meshes with the claw-shaped protrusion 45a is formed at the tip of the arm 47. In order to grip the bag with this gripping portion, the arm 47 is rotated to open the clip, and the lower portion of the knot at the opening of the bag is sandwiched between the base 44 and the arm 47. After the arm 47 is closed, the bag can be maintained in a state of being sandwiched between the clip base portion 44 and the arm portion 47 by engaging the claw-like protrusion 45a of the lock 45 with the hole 47a at the distal end portion of the arm 47.

  In the third and fourth modifications, the base portions 33a and 43a may be omitted, and the fixture 33b and the clip 41 may be directly attached to the base 1.

<Second specific example>
In this specific example, an example is shown in which three filth holders including the grip portion 33 shown in the third modification of the first specific example and a mesh sheet 41 connected thereto are used. Three filth holders shown in the first specific example (filth holders 100a, 100b, and 100c) are prepared, and they are arranged in a row at regular intervals on the tailgate portion of the car as shown in FIG. 5 (b). Install side by side. The mesh sheet 41 is an elongated bag-like mesh sheet, and has an opening 41 a that can be opened and closed with a fastener and ring-shaped attachment portions 42 a to 42 c for attachment to the grip portion 33. The mesh sheet 41 is fixed by attaching the attachment portions 42a, 42b, and 42c to the gripping portions 33a, 33b, and 33c of the filth holders 100a, 100b, and 100c arranged in a horizontal row. In the bag of the mesh 41, a relatively long thing that cannot be held by one filth holder can be held and transported.

  In this specific example, three filth holders 100 are used, but two or four or more filth holders 100 may be used in a horizontal row. In this specific example, the bag-shaped mesh sheet 41 is used. However, the opening 41a may be an opening / closing tool other than a fastener, such as a hook or a button, regardless of the shape or size of the bag. Further, the attachment portions 42a, 42b, and 42c may be omitted, and the carabiner that is the grip portion 33 may be directly hooked on the mesh sheet 41.

<Third example>
FIG. 6 shows an example of a filth holder 500 shaped like the sole of a dog's foot. This filth holder 500 has a flexible pedestal 51 in the shape of the sole of a dog's foot, and a magnet 52 attached to the back side of the paws of the dog's foot drawn on the surface of the pedestal 51, 53, 54, 55, 56, a gripping part 57, and a net 58.

  Since the filth holder 500 of this specific example has a form reminiscent of a dog, anyone can easily imagine that this holder is used to load things related to the dog. It is also predicted that a dog is riding in a vehicle equipped with this holder. In particular, if you are a pet dog, when you see a bag containing dog feces attached to the filth holder of this example, it is a bag containing dog feces, and the owner You can easily imagine that you have taken your dog's dung to your home. From this, there is an effect of appealing to the surroundings that the person attaching the filth holder 500 of this specific example to the car is a good owner who is always encouraging to bring the dog droppings home. . At the same time, it also has the effect of appealing to owners who have poor manners such as leaving dog droppings so that they can take them home. Therefore, the present invention can promote environmental protection.

  Since the filth holder 500 of this specific example can be easily attached to the rear fender or tailgate of the car, it may be always attached to the car in addition to taking the dog for a walk. In that case, since the filth holder of this specific example will be noticed by more people, it is expected that the above-described effect will be greater.

<Fourth specific example>
As shown in FIG. 7, the filth holder 600 of the present specific example includes a magnet sheet 601, a shaking prevention plate 602, a grip portion 603, and a pouch 605.

  The magnet sheet 601 is about 20 cm wide × 25 cm long, and a flexible sheet-like magnet (magnet) 601b is bonded to one surface of the flexible rubber portion 601a. Therefore, the magnet sheet 601 has both a flexible pedestal and a magnet.

  The shaking prevention plate 602 includes a flat plate portion 602a attached in parallel to the surface of the magnet sheet 601 and two projection plates 602b and 602c extending perpendicularly to the flat plate portion 602a. The distance between the two projection plates 602b and 602c is about 15 cm, and the size of each projection plate 602b and 602c is about 10 cm in height × about 15 cm in length.

  The gripping portion 603 uses the carabiner shown in the third modification of the first specific example, and is attached to the upper center portion between the protruding plates 602b and 602c. The pouch 605 includes a main body 605a and a handle 604. Although there is no restriction | limiting in the material of the pouch 605, Cloth materials, such as a canvas and a vinyl cloth, are preferable at the point which can be wash | cleaned. The size of the pouch 605 may be a size that fits between the two protruding plates 602b and 602c.

  When using the filth holder 600 of this specific example, the grip 604 of the pouch 605 containing the filth is gripped by the grip portion 603, and the pouch 605 is attached between the two protruding plates 602b and 602c. Since the roll of the pouch 605 can be suppressed by the anti-sway plate 602, the pouch 605 can be prevented from falling due to a strong shake.

  In this specific example, the size of the filth holder 600 is arbitrary. However, as described above, it is desirable that the size of the pouch 600 is a size that fits between the protruding plates 602b and 602c. Further, the pouch 600 may be a dedicated pouch that fits between the two protruding plates 602b and 602c, or may be a pouch of an appropriate size owned by the user. In particular, pet dog owners often bring their own pouch for collecting feces when walking a dog, and disposable bags are housed in the pouch. For this reason, after finishing a walk, there also exists an advantage that a porch can be immediately mounted | worn to the holding | grip part 603 as it is. Even when the pouch has no handle, it is only necessary that the pouch can be directly gripped by the grip portion 603.

  In the above specific example, the pedestal is attached to the body of the car with a magnet, but a suction cup or a hook may be attached to the pedestal instead of the magnet. The suction cup can be adsorbed on the flat part of the body. The hook can be hooked on a bumper or a bracket.

  Although the present invention has been described with specific examples and modifications, the present invention is not limited to these. For example, the magnet may be attached to the surface of the pedestal, embedded in the pedestal, or covered with an optional cover. By doing so, it is possible to prevent the body from being damaged due to the magnet sliding on the vehicle. Moreover, the position which attaches a magnet and the number of magnets are arbitrary. Furthermore, the dimension and material of the filth holder of the present invention are arbitrary. Moreover, although the example using the net | network 4 was shown as a holding | maintenance part, you may use not only the net | network 4 but arbitrary bag-shaped members, for example, a bag-shaped member without an opening (mesh).

  The filth holder according to the present invention is suitable for loading a bag containing feces during a walk of a dog because the bag containing the filth can be carried outside the vehicle without being brought into the vehicle. There are many people who feel uncomfortable when they bring a bag containing dog feces or other filth into the car because the smell is trapped in the car. Not only at high temperatures, but also when it rains or cools, and when the windows are closed and the interior of the vehicle is sealed, odors are particularly likely. For this reason, the present invention only takes the dog's feces home when he is hesitant to take a dog for a walk or to take a dog for a walk. It is possible to encourage a person who has not taken a bag containing filth to take it home without bringing it into the car. Further, by using a plurality of filth holders and bags attached to them, it is possible to load a long object that cannot be loaded with one filth holder. Furthermore, the filth holder of a shape reminiscent of a dog of the present invention appeals to the surrounding that the person attaching it to the car is a good owner, and at the same time, the dog's dung is left or buried on the spot. It also has the effect of appealing to owners with poor manners who want to bring their dog droppings home. Therefore, the present invention also contributes to environmental protection.
