  The gist of the invention of claim 4 is characterized in that, in addition to the above, the plate member is an underlay made of synthetic resin for a stationery.

  According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in addition to the second aspect of the invention, the rod member is a toothpick.

  According to the present invention, for example, by using a plate member that can bend in the plate thickness direction like an underlay made of a synthetic resin stationery and generates rebound resilience to return to a flat shape in a curved state. The warp yarn can be pulled by the repulsive elastic force of the plate member, and a winding mechanism such as a thread winding rod and a winding operation are not required, and a bead weaving tool having a simple configuration and a small number of parts can be provided.

  Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described. In each figure, the notches 15a... 16k, beads 60, and the like are drawn large for explanation.

  As shown in FIG.1 and FIG.2, the bead weaving tool 1 concerning this embodiment is provided with the plate member 10 which can bend and deform in a plate | board thickness direction. The plate member 10 is made of a synthetic resin and is molded into a thin plate shape having a rectangular shape in plan view. The plate member 10 generates rebound resilience to return to a flat shape in a curved state. As the plate member 10, for example, a stationery underlay having a length of about 250 mm × width of 180 mm × thickness of about 1 mm can be used.

  In the vicinity of the front edge portion 10a and the rear edge portion 10b of the plate member 10, mounting holes 11, 12, 13, and 14 into which toothpicks 21, 22, 23, and 24 that are examples of rod members can be inserted are formed. . The attachment holes 11, 12, 13, and 14 are configured to stop halfway when the toothpick 21, 22, 23, and 24 are inserted.

  Yarn hooking portions 15 and 16 that support warp yarns 40 that are stretched in a state where the plate member 10 is curved are provided at the center in the left-right direction of both edge portions 10a and 10b. A number of V-shaped notches 15a, 15b... 15k, 16a, 16b... 16k are formed at equal intervals in order to position the warp yarn 40 in each yarn hooking portion 15, 16. The number of notches 15a, 15b ... 15k, 16a, 16b ... 16k is greater than the number of beads 60 in the width direction of the fabric to be woven. The notches 15a, 15b ... 15k, 16a, 16b ... 16k have a depth of about 3 to 5 mm and are arranged in parallel at intervals of about 2 mm.

  As an example of a holding portion, slits 17 on which a holding thread 30 for holding the curved shape of the plate member 10 can be hung are formed at the left and right ends of both edge portions 10a and 10b.

  The plate member 10 configured as described above is curved in a substantially U-shaped cross section so that the edges 10a and 10b are close to each other, and a single holding thread 30 is hung on the slits 17 on the front, back, left, and right. The curved shape is maintained by being wound around the member 10 a plurality of times. At this time, a repulsive elastic force that causes the plate member 10 to return to the original flat shape is generated and acts on the holding yarn 30. In addition, toothpicks 21, 22, 23, and 24 are inserted into the attachment holes 11, 12, 13, and 14 from the outside of the plate member 10 and fixed thereto.

  In the bead weaving tool 1 according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 5, a single thread is reciprocated between the toothpick 21 and 22 and the toothpick 23 and 24 a plurality of times, whereby warp 40 is stretched between both edge portions 10a and 10b. Here, a procedure for stretching the warp 40 will be described.

  First, one end of the warp 40 is fixed by being tied to the toothpick 21 on the left side of the front edge portion 10a or by being attached to the plate member 10 or the like. Next, the warp 40 is passed through the notch 15a on the left end of the front edge 10a and the notch 16a on the left end of the rear edge 10b, moved backward, and hung on the left toothpick 23 of the rear edge 10b.

  Next, the warp 40 is passed through the second notch 16b from the left of the rear edge 10b and the second notch 15b from the left of the front edge 10a, moved forward, and moved to the left toothpick 21 of the front edge 10a. Multiply. Thereafter, similarly, the warp 40 is reciprocated a plurality of times between the toothpicks 21 and 22 and the toothpicks 23 and 24 while being shifted rightward. In addition, it extends between the left toothpick 21 and the toothpick 23 on the left from the center, and extends between the right toothpick 22 and the toothpick 24 on the right from the center. After the warp yarn 40 is reciprocated as many times as necessary, the other end is fixed in the same manner as one end.

  Next, the holding thread 30 is loosened or removed. As a result, both edge portions 10a, 10b acting on the holding yarn 30 are moved away from each other, and a repulsive elastic force for returning the plate member 10 to a flat shape acts on the warp yarn 40. As described above, the warp yarn 40 is pulled in the front-rear direction and is stretched at equal intervals and in parallel. On the other hand, working spaces are secured on the top, bottom, left, and right of the warp 40.

  Hereinafter, an example of a procedure for weaving a fabric using the bead weaving tool 1 on which the warp 40 is stretched will be described with reference to FIGS. In FIGS. 6 to 11, the number of beads 60 in one row is shown as four for the sake of explanation.

  First, a weft 50 is set by tying one yarn to the warp 40 at the left end (FIG. 6). The weft thread 50 is inserted into a row of beads 60 using a needle 70. At this time, it inserts in order from the bead located in the left. Next, the needle 70 is moved to the right while passing through the work space under the warp 40 (FIG. 7). The beads 60 are pushed up with a finger from below and placed between the warps 40 one by one while supporting the beads 60 for one row under the warps 40 so as to be aligned perpendicular to the warps 40 (FIG. 8).

  Next, the weft 50 is passed by inserting the needle 70 from the right to the left inside the through hole 61 of each bead 60 and above the warp 40 (FIG. 9). In this way, one row of beads 60 is supported by the warp 40 and the weft 50 and fixed in place (FIG. 10). Further, the second row of beads 60 is inserted into the weft 50, and the second row is formed behind the first row in the same manner as described above (FIG. 11). The above operation is repeated, and the fabric is woven by creating one line from the front to the rear as shown in FIGS.

  After weaving the fabric, the warp 40 on which the fabric is formed is removed from the yarn hooking portions 15 and 16, and the warp 40 remaining on the front and back of the fabric is alternately pulled back and forth in order from the left end. The fabric is completed by finishing the end of the warp yarn 40 by passing it through the through hole 61 or the like.

  According to the bead weaving tool 1 according to the present embodiment, the tension of the warp 40 can always be maintained by the repulsive elastic force of the plate member 10, so that a winding mechanism such as a rotatable thread winding rod and a winding operation are not necessary. The number of parts can be reduced with a simple configuration. Therefore, the cost can be reduced and the working time can be shortened.

  Further, in the above prior art, in order to form the working space in the vertical and horizontal directions of the portion where the warp 40 is supported in the front-rear direction and the bead 60 of the warp 40 is located, 1 and 2) and a holding rod (reference numeral 11 in Patent Document 1) and many other members and molding processes are used. The bead weaving tool 1 according to this embodiment is a thin plate member 10 that can be bent by human force. Can be configured to be simple and lightweight.

  Furthermore, in the above prior art, a helical spring is attached to position the warp. However, according to the bead weaving tool 1 according to the present embodiment, by forming the notches 15a. Positioning is possible without using any other member. Therefore, the number of members can be reduced, and a simple and lightweight configuration can be achieved.

  Since a commercially available member such as an underlay or a toothpick can be used, the manufacturing cost can be further reduced. Moreover, since the synthetic resin underlay used for the plate member 10 is easy to process, the mounting hole 11 and the like can be easily formed using a cone, for example. Therefore, the required number of attachment holes can be easily formed at an appropriate place in accordance with the width of the fabric woven by the user. Furthermore, since the plate member 10 returns to a flat shape by removing the holding thread 30, it is convenient for carrying and storage.

  In carrying out the present invention, it goes without saying that the constituent elements of the present invention, such as the form of each constituent member and the procedure for weaving the fabric, can be variously modified without departing from the spirit of the invention.

  In the above embodiment, a plurality of notches 15a, 15b... 15k, 16a, 16b... 16k for positioning the warp 40 are formed in the yarn hooking portions 15 and 16, but the bead weaving tool 2 shown in FIG. As described above, instead of the notches 15a, 15b... 15k, 16a, 16b... 16k, the adhesive portions 18 may be formed on the thread hooks 15 and 16 with cello tape (registered trademark) or double-sided adhesive tape. In this case, the warp 40 can be prevented from shifting due to the adhesiveness of the adhesive portion 18 by reciprocating the warp yarn 40 while adhering to the adhesive portion 18 at a predetermined interval. Therefore, the warp 40 can be stretched to a predetermined position without forming the notches 15a, 15b... 15k, 16a, 16b.

  In the above-described embodiment, the configuration in which the holding yarn 30 is loosened after setting the warp 40 is illustrated. However, when the warp 40 is passed over, the plate member 10 is further bent, or the rebound elastic force is increased by reciprocating while pulling the warp 40. The warp yarn 40 may be applied. According to this configuration, there is no need to loosen or remove the holding thread 30, which is convenient for repeated use.

  Further, instead of winding the holding thread 30, the curved state can be maintained by setting a predetermined distance between the two edge portions 10a and 10b with an adhesive tape such as cello tape (registered trademark). Furthermore, the plate member 10 may be made of a metal plate, a wooden plate, or the like, and another member such as a thumbtack may be used as the rod member in addition to the toothpick 21, 22, 23, 24.

  In the above embodiment, when the warp 40 is passed between the edges 10a, 10b, the warp 40 is inserted between the toothpicks 21, 22, 23, 24 fixed to the plate member 10, but the edges 10a, 10b, A plurality of cuts may be formed at predetermined intervals in the yarn hooking portions 15 and 16 of 10b, and the warp may be reciprocated while being hooked on the cuts. That is, when the warp is reciprocated a plurality of times in order from the end while being applied to a large number of cuts, the warp is supported and positioned at the same time. Therefore, since the functions of both the toothpick 21, 22, 23, 24 and the large number of 15a, 15b ... 15k, 16a, 16b ... 16k in the above-described embodiment can be achieved only by cutting, the structure should be simpler. And warp yarns can be easily stretched.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 17, scales 19 may be provided on the four sides including both edge portions 10 a and 10 b of the plate member 10 in each of the above embodiments. The scales 19 are provided at positions about 2 cm from each side. The scale 19 is marked greatly every 5 mm at 1 mm intervals. Furthermore, a number is given every 1 cm. With such a configuration, the size of the fabric to be woven can be easily measured. Further, when forming the notches 15a, 15b,... 15k, 16a, 16b,... 16k, the notches 15a, 15b,.
