The handle retracting mechanism of the present invention that realizes the above is provided with a shaft pin at least at one end portion of the handle body, and has a long hole shape at an attachment portion that pivotally attaches the handle body end portion provided with the shaft pin. Because it has a configuration in which a bearing hole portion having a smaller diameter portion than the diameter of the shaft pin is provided by providing a convex edge portion in the middle, the number of parts is small, manufacturing is easy and excellent in mass productivity, and low cost configuration It becomes a revolutionary water bottle with a handle that is extremely practical.

Further, in the present invention , since the mounting member having the bearing hole portion is a separate part from the mounting portion, the mounting member having the bearing hole portion with the convex edge portion can be easily designed and realized with further practicality. It becomes a water bottle with a handle of composition.

In the second aspect of the present invention, the small-diameter portion holds the shaft pin on the front side and the rear side of the bearing hole, that is, the handle body does not easily move between the use state and the non-use state. Although it is the structure to hold | maintain, it becomes the water bottle with a handle | steering_wheel of the structure which was excellent in the operativity which the shaft pin can move to this small diameter part comparatively easily.

  Embodiments of the present invention that are considered suitable (how to carry out the invention) will be briefly described with reference to the drawings, illustrating the operation of the present invention.

  For example, when carrying the water bottle with the handle body 1, when the handle body 1 provided along the circumferential surface of the water bottle body 2 is grasped and pulled away from the water bottle body 2, the handle body 1 is moved by the handle retracting mechanism 4. Protrudes laterally from the circumferential surface of the water bottle body 2.

  Specifically, at least one end portion of the handle body 1 is pulled in a direction away from the attachment portion 3 to which the end portion is pivotally attached, so that the front end of the bearing hole portion 6 of the attachment portion 3 is pulled. The shaft pin 5 at the end of the handle body 1 that has been positioned moves to the rear side beyond the small-diameter portion 6B formed by the convex edge portion 6A at the middle portion of the bearing hole 6.

  When passing through the small diameter portion 6B, the small diameter portion 6B is smaller in diameter than the diameter of the shaft pin 5, so that the shaft pin 5 does not easily move to the front side of the bearing hole portion 6. The state located on the rear side of the portion 6 is maintained, and the state in which the handle body 1 protrudes laterally from the circumferential surface of the water bottle main body 2 (the use state of the handle body 1) is maintained.

  Further, when the handle body 1 is switched from the use state to the state where the handle body 1 is not used, the handle body 1 is moved by the handle retracting mechanism 4 when the protruding handle body 1 is pressed toward the circumferential surface of the water bottle body 2. Along the water bottle body 2 circumferential surface.

  Specifically, at least one end portion of the handle body 1 is pushed and moved to the front side of the attachment portion 3 to which the end portion is pivotally attached by the handle retracting mechanism 4. The shaft pin 5 at the end of the handle body 1 located on the rear side of the third bearing hole portion 6 moves to the front side beyond the small diameter portion 6B formed by the convex edge portion 6A at the middle portion of the bearing hole portion 6.

  When passing through the small diameter portion 6B, the small diameter portion 6B is smaller in diameter than the diameter of the shaft pin 5, so that the shaft pin 5 does not easily move to the rear side of the bearing hole portion 6. The state located on the front side of the portion 6 is maintained, and the state where the handle body 1 is provided along the circumferential surface of the water bottle main body 2 (the unused state of the handle body 1) is maintained.

  Accordingly, the handle body 1 can be protruded from the water bottle main body 2 when the handle body 1 is used, and the handle body 1 can be compacted along the water bottle main body 2 when not in use. In addition, the handle retracting mechanism 4 of the present invention that realizes the handle 1 retracting operation is provided with a shaft pin 5 at least at one end of the handle body 1. The mounting portion 3 that pivotally attaches to the end of the handle body 1 is simply provided with a bearing hole portion 6 that has a long hole shape and a small diameter portion 6B that is smaller in diameter than the diameter of the shaft pin 5 by the convex edge portion 6A. Due to the configuration, the number of parts is small, the manufacture is easy and the mass productivity is excellent, and the configuration can be provided at a low cost.

  Specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  The water bottle main body 2 of the present embodiment illustrates a cylindrical stainless steel thermos as shown in FIGS.

  In addition, resin ring bands 13 are attached to the outer peripheral surfaces of the upper and lower ends of the water bottle main body 2, and the mounting portions 3 are integrally formed in a protruding state at predetermined positions of the upper and lower ring bands 13, Both ends of the handle body 1 made of flexible material are pivotally attached to the upper and lower attachment portions 3, and the handle body 1 is provided in a vertically installed state on the water bottle main body 2.

  In addition, the handle body 1 of the present embodiment is, for example, a flexible long belt-like body made of synthetic rubber, and is connected to both ends (upper and lower ends) of the elongated handle body 1 by a tapered resin. 1A is provided, and a shaft pin 5 serving as a pivot shaft to the mounting portion 3 is provided at the tip of the connecting portion 1A at each of both ends, and the axial length direction of the shaft pin 5 is the length direction of the handle body 1. It is attached so as to be orthogonal to each other, and both end portions of the shaft pin 5 are provided so as to protrude from both (left and right) sides of each connecting portion 1A.

  On the other hand, each of the attachment portions 3 to which the connecting portions 1A at both ends of the handle body 1 are pivotally mounted is formed in a shape exhibiting a substantially U-shape when viewed from the front, as shown in FIGS. Each ring band 13 is integrally formed so that both open portions are in a vertically opposed state.

  And each connection part 1A of the handle | steering-wheel body 1 both ends is attached to the upper and lower attachment parts 3 by the shaft pin 5, but in this embodiment, it is attached to either the upper or lower pivot attachment structure part, that is, the drawing. Then, a handle that allows the handle body 1 to be moved into and out of the peripheral surface of the water bottle main body 2 on the pivotal attachment structure portion of the attachment portion 3 on the upper portion of the water bottle main body 2 and the corresponding connecting portion 1A disposed on the upper side of the drawing. A haunting mechanism 4 is provided.

  The handle retracting mechanism 4 according to the present embodiment will be described. The mounting portion 3 at the upper portion of the water bottle main body 2 is provided with a bearing hole portion 6 for inserting and supporting the shaft pin 5 of the connecting portion 1A disposed on the upper side of the drawing. The shape of the portion 6 is formed into a long hole shape having a length along the length direction (vertical direction in the drawing) of the handle body 1, and the handle body 1 is provided in a straight line along the circumferential surface of the water bottle body 2. In this case, the shaft pin 5 pivotally supported by the bearing hole 6 is located on the front side (the upper side in the drawing) of the bearing hole 6 with respect to the handle body 1, and the handle body 1 is bent laterally from the water bottle body 2. When projecting in a shape, the shaft pin 5 pivotally supported by the bearing hole 6 is positioned on the rear side (lower side in the drawing) of the bearing hole 6 with respect to the handle body 1.

  Further, the bearing hole 6 is provided with a convex edge 6A at the hole edge in the middle of the bearing hole 6 in the length direction, and the hole diameter of the portion where the convex edge 6A exists is the shaft pin 5. The small-diameter portion 6B is slightly smaller in diameter than the above-described diameter dimension. When the shaft pin 5 passes through the small-diameter portion 6B, a movement resistance is generated so that the shaft pin 5 cannot easily pass through. That is, the shaft positioned on the front side of the bearing hole 6 by applying a force so as to pull the handle body 1 laterally from the state where the handle body 1 is provided along the circumferential surface of the water bottle body 2. A force is applied so that the pin 5 moves to the rear side beyond the small-diameter portion 6B by the convex edge portion 6A and presses the handle body 1 in the curved surface side direction to press the water bottle body 2 in the circumferential direction. Thus, the shaft pin 5 located on the rear side of the bearing hole portion 6 moves to the front side beyond the small diameter portion 6B formed by the convex edge portion 6A.

  More specifically, the substantially inverted U-shaped mounting portion 3 in the upper part has a shape in which the mounting members 30 are provided on the left and right free end portions 3A hanging downward and the mounting members 30 are opposed to the left and right. The connecting portion 1A on the upper side of the handle body 1 provided with the shaft pin 5 can be disposed between the mounting members 30 facing each other, and the bearing holes are respectively formed on the opposing inner side surfaces of the mounting members 30. A portion 6 is provided, and both end portions of the shaft pin 5 are inserted into and supported by the bearing hole portions 6 existing at the facing positions.

  More specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, a rectangular plate-shaped resin mounting member 30 through which the bearing hole portion 6 is formed is a separate component from the mounting portion 3, and the upper portion is substantially rotated. The character-shaped attachment portion 3 is provided so that attachment members 30 can be arranged along the inner surfaces facing the left and right free end portions 3A, and on the front side of each of the left and right free end portions 3A and the intermediate portion. When the stopper piece portion 3B is integrally formed and the attachment member 30 is provided along the inner surface of the free end portion 3A from below the attachment portion 3 without the stopper piece portion 3B, the attachment member 30 is moved by the stopper piece portion 3B. It is set as the structure by which it tries to move to the front side of the attaching part 3 is blocked | prevented.

  Further, a groove-shaped guide portion 3C is provided on the bottom surface portion of the mounting portion 3 along the outer peripheral surface of the water bottle body 2 so as to extend along the left and right free end portions 3A. The mounting member 30 is moved to the back side (upper side of the drawing) of the mounting portion 3 in a state where the side edge of the mounting member 30 is fitted to the portion 3C, and further, the guide portion 3C is positioned at the lower side of the drawing. While forming the drop hole 3D on the bottom surface of the attachment portion 3, a protrusion 30A that fits into the drop hole 3D is provided at the lower end of the side edge of the attachment member 30 so that the attachment member 30 is located on the back side of the attachment portion 3. The mounting member 30 is positioned relative to the mounting portion 3 by moving the projection 30A of the mounting member 30 into the drop hole 3D and fitting it into the drop hole 3D.

  Therefore, since the mounting member 30 having the bearing hole 6 is a separate part from the mounting part 3, for example, the bearing hole 6 with the convex edge 6A, the protrusion 30A, the pin hole 30B described later, and the lightening part 7 described later are provided. The mounting member 30 provided can be easily designed and realized by resin molding or the like, and is excellent in manufacturability and mass productivity.

  In addition, when attaching the connecting portion 1A on the upper side of the handle body 1 to the attaching portion 3 above the water bottle main body 2, for example, the bearing holes are provided at both end portions of the shaft pin 5 protruding in advance to the left and right of the connecting portion 1A. The attachment member 30 is hooked through the portion 6, and the connecting portion 1A is pushed between the left and right free end portions 3A of the attachment portion 3 with the attachment member 30 being hooked from below to attach the left and right attachments to the inner surface of the free end portion 3A. When the member 30 is pushed along and moved, the protrusion 30A is dropped into and fitted into the drop hole 3D and the attachment member 30 is positioned in the attachment portion 3, and is thereby pivotally supported by the bearing hole 6. The connecting portion 1 </ b> A is pivotally held by the shaft pin 5 so as to be prevented from coming off from the mounting portion 3 and pivotable (see FIG. 4). In this way, the connecting portion 1A can be easily assembled to the attachment portion 3, and the structure is excellent in mass productivity.

  In the present embodiment, each attachment member 30 is firmly fixed to the attachment portion 3 by the fastening pin 8 penetrating the attachment member 30 and the attachment portion 3 in the lateral direction, and the connecting portion 1A is attached to the attachment portion 3. The structure is firmly connected to the pivot. Reference numerals 3E and 30B in the figure denote pin holes for fixing the fixing pins 8.

  Further, the convex edge portion 6A of the present embodiment is integrally projected on the middle portion of each bearing hole portion 6 in the longitudinal direction of the peripheral edge side of the water bottle main body 2 near the lower side of the drawing. As shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, the shape of the convex edge portion 6 </ b> A is such that the upper side of the drawing (the front side of the bearing hole portion 6) projects obliquely downward (backward) and the lower side (the bearing hole portion). 6 (back side) protrudes upward (forward) at a steep angle, and is further formed into a shape in which a continuous edge portion (the top portion of the convex edge portion 6A) of the upper edge and the lower edge becomes a convex curved edge. is doing.

  Further, the shape of the hole on the rear side of the bearing hole 6 so that the shaft pin 5 is fitted (fitted) to the rear portion of the bearing hole 6 existing below (rear side) of the convex edge portion 6A. The shaft body 5 is positioned in the rear part of the bearing hole 6 and positioned so that the handle body 1 can be maintained in a good condition when the handle body 1 protrudes from the peripheral surface of the water bottle body 2. (See FIG. 6).

  Further, in the present embodiment, the hollow portion 7 that is adjacent to the bearing hole 6 and promotes deformation of the small diameter portion 6B when the shaft pin 5 moves in the small diameter portion 6B of the bearing hole 6 is used. Is provided.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, each mounting member 30 has a length in a direction synchronized with the bearing hole 6 at an adjacent position outside the circumferential surface of the water bottle main body 2 of the bearing hole 6. The lightening portion 7 is formed through. Then, the hollowed portion 7 makes it easier for the outer hole edge of the bearing hole 6 (the hole edge facing the hole edge on the convex edge 6A side) to be slightly bent and deformed in the direction of the hollowed portion 7. As a result of this bending, the diameter of the small-diameter portion 6B is expanded as shown in FIG. 7, and the top of the convex edge portion 6A is a curved edge. The front side and the rear side of the hole 6 can be moved back and forth.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, as described above, the small diameter portion 6B provides resistance to the movement of the shaft pin 5 so that the handle body 1 is held so as not to move easily between the use state and the non-use state. However, when the shaft pin 5 passes through the small diameter portion 6B, the deformation of the bearing hole portion 6 due to the provision of the thinned portion 7 makes it possible to pass the shaft pin 5 without applying much force. It has a configuration.

  The handle retracting mechanism 4 of the present embodiment configured as described above is provided with a shaft pin 5 at one end portion of the handle body 1, and the mounting portion 3 to which the end portion of the handle body 1 provided with the shaft pin 5 is attached. Since it can be configured simply by providing a pair of mounting members 30 having a bearing hole 6 with a convex edge 6A by integral molding, the number of parts is small, manufacturing is easy and excellent in mass productivity, and a configuration is provided at low cost. It becomes possible.

  Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

  If you want to carry the water bottle with the handle body 1, you can grab the handle body 1 that is straight along the circumferential surface of the water bottle body 2 and pull it away from the water bottle body 2 to pull the handle body 1 into the water bottle. It protrudes in a curved shape from the main body 2 to the side (see FIGS. 2 and 6).

  Then, at least one end portion of the handle body 1 moves by being pulled in a direction away from the attachment portion 3 to which the one end portion is pivotally attached, and thereby, the front side of the bearing hole portion 6 of the attachment portion 3 As shown in FIG. 7, the shaft pin 5 at the end of the handle body 1 moved to the small diameter portion 6B by the convex edge portion 6A in the middle of the bearing hole 6 as shown in FIG. Get caught.

  When force is applied to further pull the handle body 1 against this catch, the hole edge of the small-diameter portion 6B is bent and deformed as shown in FIG. The shaft pin 5 moves beyond the portion 6B to the rear side of the bearing hole 6 (moves from the state of FIG. 5 to the state of FIG. 6).

  When the small diameter portion 6B is exceeded, the small diameter portion 6B is smaller in diameter than the diameter of the shaft pin 5, so that the shaft pin 5 does not easily move to the front side of the bearing hole 6, and the bearing Since the rear side of the hole 6A is shaped so that the shaft pin 5 is just fitted, the state of being positioned on the rear side of the bearing hole 6 is well maintained, and the handle body 1 is located on the side of the water bottle main body 2 side. The state of projecting in a curved direction is favorably maintained.

  When switching from the state in which the handle body 1 is used to the state in which the handle body 1 is not used, the handle body 1 protruding in a curved shape is pressed toward the circumferential surface of the water bottle body 2 so that the handle body 1 is rotated around the water bottle body 2 Straight along the surface (see Figs. 1 and 5).

Then, at least one end portion of the handle body 1 is pushed and moved toward the front side of the mounting portion 3 to which the one end portion is pivotally attached, and thereby, the rear end of the bearing hole portion 6 of the mounting portion 3 is moved. located on the side the pivot pin 5 of the (crowded in fit) have handle member first end, drawing the upper right direction on to or escape of the bearing hole 6 middle portion as shown in FIG. 7 because there is no tongue It moves to the small diameter part 6B by 6A, and the shaft pin 5 is hooked by the small diameter part 6B.

  When a force is applied to further press the handle body 1 against this catch, the hole edge of the small-diameter portion 6B is bent and deformed as shown in FIG. The shaft pin 5 moves to the front side of the bearing hole 6 beyond the small diameter portion 6B (moves from the state of FIG. 6 to the state of FIG. 5).

  And beyond this small diameter portion 6B, since the small diameter portion 6B is smaller in diameter than the diameter of the shaft pin 5, the shaft pin 5 does not easily move to the rear side of the bearing hole portion 6, The state located on the front side of the bearing hole 6 is maintained, and the handle body 1 is maintained in a straight line along the circumferential surface of the water bottle main body 2.
