Description

  The present invention relates to a blowing tool used as a toy or in the leisure and sports fields.

  Blowing arrows put a conical arrow into a hollow cylindrical quiver from the tip of the arrow, breathe in with the mouthpiece at the back of the quiver in the mouth, and fire the arrow from the tip of the quiver. A game that hits the target. In recent years, breathing when firing arrows is abdominal breathing and it is good for health, so blown arrows as a sport have become widespread, and in addition to the conventional performance, more accurate shooting characteristics are required, quiver The performance of blowing tools such as and arrows is also regarded as important. In addition, blown arrows are delicate sports where subtle changes in the mental surface and breath blowing affect the accuracy, so it is desirable that the blower tool be easy to operate, as well as the performance of quiveres and arrows. .

A conventional blow tool has a quiver made of fiber reinforced plastic, and a quiver comprising a hollow cylindrical pipe is composed of at least two inner and outer fiber reinforced plastic layers, and the fiber reinforced plastic layer is a filament. It is formed by a winding method (see Patent Document 1).
JP 2001-108396 A

The quiver is usually composed of a hollow cylindrical pipe and a mouthpiece mouthpiece, but it is not easy to keep horizontal because the pipe is cylindrical, and it is lightweight in the case of a metal pipe For this reason, it must be made thin, so that it is easy to dent with a slight impact, and in the case of a vinyl chloride tube, the rigidity is weak and the warp tends to occur in the longitudinal direction. In addition, since the hit accuracy of blown arrows is greatly influenced by the mental, a tool that can be used in an optimal state without excessive posture is desirable for the player to aim accurately at the target. However, the conventional quiver consists only of a hollow cylindrical pipe and a mouthpiece, and the player directly grips and operates a part of the pipe. There is a problem that it is impossible to slip and stably grip and to operate in an optimal state.

The present invention has been made in view of these points, and can be firmly gripped at a position where a player can easily grip when performing a blowing arrow, and the level of the quiver can be easily maintained during operation, and the blowing arrow having high strength. The purpose is to provide tools.

The blow tool according to the present invention includes a quiver comprising a groove formed at regular intervals in the axial direction on a whole circumference of a hollow cylindrical pipe made of light metal, and a mouthpiece provided at one end opening of the pipe, and an outer circumference of the pipe And a hollow holding part cut out from a raw tree that is slidable in the axial direction and an arrow inserted into the quiver.

  Moreover, the present invention is characterized in that, in the blowing tool, the arrow is provided with a suction cup at the tip.

According to the blowing tool according to the present invention, the hollow gripping part obtained by cutting out a raw tree is externally fitted to the pipe and is slidable in the axial direction. It is possible to improve the accuracy of hitting the target of the arrow used for the blown arrow by being able to operate in a posture without any.

Further, since the pipe used for the quiver is made of light metal, it is lightweight and lasts long. In addition, by forming grooves on the entire outer periphery of the pipe at regular intervals in the axial direction, it is easy to maintain the level of the pipe, the strength is increased, and it is possible to reduce dents and warping. Furthermore, when the grip portion is slid in the axial direction, the movement in the linear direction is ensured by the groove, and it is difficult to rotate at the time of use, so the hit rate to the target is further improved.

In addition, by using a suction cup at the tip of the arrow, even elderly people and children with weak breathing ability can easily adsorb the arrow to the target, and the tip of the arrow is not tapered, so the hand is crazy. Even when the arrow heads in a direction different from the target direction, there is less danger and the player can play with peace of mind.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.
FIG. 1 shows the configuration of the blow tool 1. The blow tool 1 includes a quiver 2 including a groove 5 formed at a constant interval in the axial direction on the entire outer periphery of a hollow cylindrical pipe 3 and a mouthpiece 4 provided at one end opening of the pipe 3, and an outer periphery of the pipe 3. And a hollow holding part 6 cut out from a raw tree that is slidable in the axial direction and an arrow 7 inserted into the quiver 2.

The pipe 3 has a hollow cylindrical shape as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and is made of a light metal having a small specific gravity such as aluminum. Since the inner diameter r1 of the pipe 3 is normally about 10 to 14 mm, a ready-made light metal pipe having the same inner diameter can be used. Since the length of the pipe 3 in the axial direction is usually about 500 to 1200 mm, a ready-made light metal pipe can be cut to the same extent according to the application. As a guideline for the axial length of the pipe 3, a pipe of about 1200 mm is usually used with a range of 8 m. When used for recovery of physical strength in hospitals, etc., or for beginners, elderly people, children and wheelchair users, etc. When used at about 6 m, a length of about 500 to 600 mm is used. The pipe 3 has grooves 5 formed at regular intervals in the axial direction on the entire outer periphery. The groove 5 may have a width and a depth of about 0.5 mm, but is not limited thereto. By forming such a groove 5, it is easy to maintain the level of the pipe 3 when gripped, and the strength against bending is also increased. The groove 5 can be formed by any known method. As for the material of the pipe 3, a vinyl pipe with gold plating or the like may be used.

The mouthpiece 4 is provided at one end of the pipe 3 in accordance with the inner diameter r <b> 1 of the pipe 3. Known shapes and installation methods can be used.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, the gripping part 6 is fitted on the outer periphery of the pipe 3 of the quiver 2 and is slidable in the axial direction, and can be gripped at a position where the player M can easily grip. An inner diameter r3 of the gripping portion 6 may be substantially the same as the outer diameter r2 of the pipe 3, or may be slightly larger than the outer diameter r2 of the pipe 3. In any case, the gripping portion 6 may slide smoothly when the gripping portion 6 is externally fitted to the pipe 3. FIG. 3 shows a case where the inner diameter r3 of the grip portion 6 and the outer diameter r2 of the pipe 3 are substantially the same diameter. The length of the grip 6 in the axial direction is not particularly limited, but it is sufficient if it is about the width of the hand so that it can be easily gripped. The gripping portion 6 can be manufactured at a low cost by using a material obtained by cutting a thin tree of an appropriate thickness. In addition, by using raw wood, the gripping part 6 has a beautiful appearance and feels warm, and feels warm when it is actually gripped. It is hygroscopic and can absorb sweat, and the unique scent of wood makes you feel comfortable and refreshed, allowing you to relax and operate. With such various effects of living trees, it is expected that the accuracy of hitting the target will be improved in blow arrows where mental factors greatly affect the hit accuracy to the target.

As shown in FIG. 4, the arrow 7 is formed in an elongated conical shape, and is generally used in which a thin rigid resin film is wound and a weight 8 is fixed to the tip end side of the arrow 7. The arrow 7 is inserted so as to be at the head when the tip of the arrow 7 is fired from the opening of the mouthpiece 4 attached to the pipe 3. The arrow 7 can be an existing arrow if the outer diameter r4 of the rear end portion matches the inner diameter r1 of the pipe 3, and a thin rigid resin film or the like is wound around a tapered jig to form a hollow, conical shape. It is also possible to manufacture and use an arrow by a known and arbitrary method. FIG. 6 shows an arrow 9 which is a modification of the arrow 7. The arrow 9 has a hollow cylinder 10 and a suction cup 11 attached to the tip of the cylinder 10, the tip of the cylinder 10 is covered, and a weight 12 is placed inside the tip of the cylinder 10. It is fixed. The cylinder 10 is formed in the shape of an elongated cylinder by winding a thin rigid resin film in the same manner as the arrow 7, and is formed so that the outer diameter r5 of the cylinder 10 and the outer diameter r4 of the arrow 7 are substantially the same diameter. Moreover, a publicly known thing can be used regarding the raw material, shape, etc. of the suction cup 11, and the installation method to the said cylinder 10 is not specifically limited. As shown in the figure, when the arrow 9 hits the target 13, the tip of the suction cup 11 spreads and is adsorbed on the target 13. By using such an arrow 9, since the force of breath blowing is weak compared to the case where the tip 7 is tapered like the arrow 7 and the arrow 7 is pierced into the target 13, the arrow 7 The arrow 9 can be easily adsorbed to the target 13 even if the breath blowing power is weak, and it can be easily enjoyed even by a player with a weak breath blowing force such as an elderly person or a child. be able to. Also, when the arrow 9 is blown, the hand is out of order, and the tip is not tapered even when the arrow 9 is directed in a direction different from the direction of the target 13, so there is less danger compared to using the arrow 7. In particular, it can be played with peace of mind for the elderly and children.

Hereinafter, the usage method of this blowing tool will be described.
FIG. 5 shows an embodiment of the blow tool 1. The blowing tool 1 inserts the arrow 7 into the quiver 2 in advance as described above, and as shown in the figure, the player M slides the gripping part 6 to a position where it can be easily gripped, and blows in through the mouthpiece 4. , To fire the arrow 7 and hit the target 13. The blowing arrow also enjoys competing for the score written on the target 13 hit by the arrow 7 and the distance from the center of the target 13 to the arrow 7 hit.

A known and arbitrary target may be used as a target when performing the blowing arrows. As shown in FIG. 7, a target 14 manufactured by attaching a paper on which a target is drawn to cardboard may be used. With regard to how to play, for example, instead of marking only the score, as shown in Fig. 7, the name of the hot springs throughout the country is clearly stated in the column where the score is marked, and if it hits the center, 200 points, the target in the center If you hit the hot spring mark on the upper left outside the target frame, you can use it as 100 points. At this time, the target marking method is not the name of the hot spring, but it is possible to create and enjoy variously arranged targets such as the name of Sekitori and the name of the professional baseball team.

In this way, gripping the blow tool 1 at a position where it can be easily gripped and operating it in an optimal state will improve the hit rate to the target, so that it can be enjoyed as a sport blow arrow as a sport, It is possible to provide a blowing tool that can be enjoyed easily and safely without getting tired as a blowing arrow for the elderly, beginners and children by adding arrangements and freely selecting the type of arrow that suits the player it can.
