Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide an inexpensive, harmless to human, long-lasting effect and simple use to protect mountain climbers and forest workers from the damage of mountain buildings that invade and absorb blood from a slight gap in clothing. There is actually no mountain building defense equipment that can be used. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] Focusing on the efficacy of salt as a mountain building repellent, the composition was made effective and effective for a long time. Specifically, a disposable wiener or belt-shaped hill defense disposable salt pack containing a certain amount of salt in a water-permeable tube is prepared, and water is dripped directly onto the surface of the water-permeable tube of this salt pack. Disclosed is a hill defense disposable salt pack in which the salt stored in is dissolved in salt water as a mountain building repellent solution to repel the hill with salt water.

Description

  The present invention relates to a hill defense spats and a salt pack as climbing equipment or mountain forestry work equipment used to protect a leg from being eaten by hills, particularly mountain buildings. The climbing spats shown in FIG. 6 are also called gators or gators depending on the manufacturer. This is a water-repellent fiber cover that covers the space between the upper part of the shoe and the ankle in order to prevent rain and pebbles from entering the shoe.

  Yama Building is the only terrestrial blood-sucking species in Japanese hills. Distribution is wide from Akita Prefecture to Okinawa. The size is 2 to 3 cm when stationary and 4 to 6 cm when extended. Responds to the breath, vibration, heat, and smell of people and animals, and if you stick, you can reach your feet and neck in one minute. It has teeth like saw teeth, and when it bites into the skin, it sends a substance called hirudin that doesn't coagulate blood from the mouth. It sucks blood over an hour, and the amount is 2-3ml, which is 10 times your own weight. Hill falls naturally when full. However, blood does not stop while hirudin remains. Once sucked, it can withstand two years of fasting. Repeated molting after blood sucking.

  On the other hand, the long-term stagnation of timber prices makes it difficult for Japanese forests to produce even thinning labor costs every year, resulting in the growth of miscellaneous trees that bear the fruits of wild animals. Along with this, wild animals such as deer and cormorant breed abnormally, and the mountain building is attached to the body and moved extensively. As a result, the habitat of the mountain building is expanded. Many hikers have entered these mountain building habitats on the premise of the recent mountain climbing boom, and there are many troubles that cause damage to mountain buildings. Especially when eaten by a mountain building, there is almost no pain, and if you notice, your socks will bleed red. At present, the following measures have been taken to protect against such mountain building damage.

Measure 1: Apply L menthol based chemicals on the shoes with a brush or spray. For example, a liquid anti-inflammatory analgesic or the like is applied directly from the top of the shoe to prevent the mountain building from crawling up the legs. However, if it comes in hand when tightening a shoelace, etc., there is a resistance to gripping and eating rice balls with that hand, and there is a problem that the smell is tight. In addition, when it rains, it easily flows out from the surface of the shoe, and the effect as a countermeasure against mountain building disappears.
Measure 2: Apply Albose soap (liquid) to the shoes. This is a cheap and relatively effective mountain building defense measure in terms of cost. However, the liquid is applied only once, and this also has a problem that it easily flows out during rain and the effect as a countermeasure against mountain building disappears.
Countermeasure 3: Apply deet liquid (more than 10%) to shoes. Since this also has the same problem as the above countermeasure 1, it has a defect that cannot be a perfect defense countermeasure.
Measure 4: Apply insect repellent spray to shoes and body. However, this countermeasure is only applied once, and has a problem that it is almost disabled when it rains.

  Action 5: Put on spats that cover the shoes and ankles. These spats are generally attached so that stones and wood chips do not enter the shoes, and the trousers do not get wet in the morning dew such as undergrowth. With this attached, the mountain building does not enter the shoes. It has the effect of. However, since it is made of a water-repellent fiber, there is a problem that even if sprayed with Hill repellent liquid from above, it easily flows out. In addition, the mountain building easily climbs over the spats and enters the waist from the upper part of the trousers, and also has a problem of entering the trousers easily from a slight gap between the spats and the shoe surface.

  Measure 6: Spray salt water with about 20% salt on the bottom of shoes and pants. This measure of spraying salt water is an effective measure that is also specified in the Yamabi Countermeasure Manual (March 2009) issued by the Environment Department of the Prefectural Center for Prefectural Government in Kanagawa Prefecture. It is a well-known fact among climbers that the mountain building reacts to salt in a manner similar to slugs, and spraying salt water on the foot of shoes and pants is non-toxic for humans. It is considered the most effective measure for building measures. However, when climbing for a long time, the salt water sprayed on the surface of the shoe dries quickly, and the salt content is lost in a short time due to rain or the like, so that the effect as a measure against mountain building does not last long.

  Furthermore, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 9-111516 discloses a mountain suit. This is a coverall that integrates the outerwear and trousers to prevent the invasion of the mountain building. It improves the adhesion to the skin and is effective from the drug stored in the pocket on the lower leg of the trousers. It is a structure that repels mountain buildings by drifting components. However, this mountain building protective clothing is originally a work clothing for protecting a patrolman of a transmission line from damage of a mountain building during work, and it is not a structure that anyone can easily use. In particular, it is not a structure that can be easily used by climbers that have become increasingly fashionable in recent years, and more importantly, it is a structure that has mountain building repellents in a pocket, and therefore has a sanitary problem. . In other words, it is not easy for a climber to easily replace a pad soaked with a medicine or to newly soak a medicine during climbing.

  The problem to be solved is inexpensive and harmless to humans to protect mountain climbers, forest workers, or river fishing enthusiasts from the damage of mountain buildings that invade and absorb blood through a slight gap in clothing, There is actually no mountain building defense article that is effective for a long time and can be used easily.

  The hill defense spats used to protect the legs from being engulfed by the mountain building according to the present invention pay attention to the effectiveness of the salt as a mountain building repellent described in the above countermeasure 6, and this effect is effective and It was set as the structure made to demonstrate for a long time. Specifically, the spats of the cylindrical fiber cover have a reversible structure, one surface is a water-repellent water-repellent surface, and the other surface is a water-absorbing water-absorbing surface so that salt water can easily penetrate. . That is, before the climber enters the hill habitat, it is attached so that the water absorption surface of the spats is exposed, and salt water as a hill repellent solution is sprayed on this water absorption surface. Compared with conventional spats having only a water-repellent surface, the sprayed salt water has an advantage that the hill repellent effect is effective for a long time because it stays on the surface of the spats for a long time and absorbs and diffuses water.

  As still another embodiment, the spats of the present invention have a water-permeable salt pocket at the upper part of the water absorption surface. An appropriate amount of commercially available rose salt is put into the salt pocket, and water is poured from the surface of the pocket. The splashed water dissolves the salt in the salt pocket and is absorbed and diffused as salt water over the entire water absorption surface, demonstrating the building repellent effect. If water is applied again before the water-absorbing surface of the spats dries, the water-absorbing surface is always moistened with salt water, and the hill repellent effect is not reduced and is effective as a countermeasure against hills. In particular, this embodiment has an advantage that it is inexpensive and has high practicality as a mountain climbing equipment because it uses a commercially available rose salt at a low price and has a hill repellent effect just by applying water.

  As yet another embodiment, the present invention discloses a salt pack instead of the above rose salt. This salt pack is a connected wiener-like or belt-like disposable salt pack in which a certain amount of salt is stored in a water-permeable tube. Unlike rose salt, it has the advantage of being easy to use because it is already packed. This salt pack may be a long rolled product, and a climber can cut it to an appropriate length when using it and put it in the above-described salt pocket for use.

  As still another embodiment, the present invention also discloses a salt pack in which the above-described salt pack is cut to a length that can be wound around a leg, and a binding string is attached to both ends of the salt pack in advance. The same hill repellent effect can be obtained simply by wrapping this on the leg from the top of conventional spats and applying water.

  In the hill defense spats of the present invention used to protect the legs so as not to be eaten by the mountain building, salt water as a hill repellent solution is absorbed and diffused over a long time on the water absorption surface of the spats. Compared to spats made only of water-repellent fibers, it is possible to obtain a hill repellent effect for a long time on a mountain path. The spats are reversible and can be used as normal spats by turning them upside down outside the hill habitat and exposing the water-repellent surface. Moreover, since salt water is used as a leech repellent, it is odorless, inexpensive and harmless to humans. This salt water can be made at any time by simply adding water to the surface of the salt pocket and dissolving it in the salt in the water-permeable salt pocket of spats. It is possible to make it easily using water. It is also possible to make salt water as a hill repellent solution more easily if you bring a salt pack in advance, and since the salt pack has a binding string attached, it is wrapped around existing spats to prevent hills It is also possible. As described above, the countermeasure against hills according to the present invention has an advantage that it is extremely practical because it only absorbs and diffuses salt water on the water absorption surface of the spats. Even when it rains, the salt contained in the salt pocket of the spats gets wet with rain and is absorbed and diffused as salt water on the water absorption surface, so the hill repellent effect is reduced unlike the conventional application of hill repellent solution It also has the practicality of not doing anything.

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view when the hill defense spats of the present invention are worn. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view when wearing hill defense spats with salt pockets according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the salt pack of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a salt pack with a binding string according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a perspective view of an example of use of the salt pack shown in FIG. FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a conventional climbing spats.

  FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view when the hill defense spats (1) of the present invention are worn. The hill defense spats (1) used to protect the legs from being eaten by the mountain building are made of a reversible and cylindrical fiber cover that can be turned upside down. The outer water-absorbing surface (20) in the figure may be made by raising a water-absorbing material such as a chemical fiber, or may be made of a non-woven fabric. The selection of the water-absorbing material itself is not the central inventive idea of the present invention, and the details are omitted. However, the material is not particularly limited as long as it is thin and has a large water-absorbing holding power. The inner water repellent surface (10) is water repellent. Therefore, even if the outer water absorbing surface (20) is moist, it is waterproofed by the inner water repellent surface (10), so that moisture does not transfer to pants or the like. In addition, the water absorption holding | maintenance degree of a water absorption surface (20) is enough if the water absorption process of the grade which can maintain moderate humidity for about 1 hour, for example by spraying mountain building repellent liquid (104) is sufficient. In normal mountain walking, there is often a small pause of about once per hour, and if the mountain building repellent liquid (104) can be absorbed and retained to a certain degree until that time, the mountain pause resuspension can be re-applied during the short pause. This is because the mountain building repellent solution (104) can be sprayed.

  When the mountain building repellent liquid (104) is absorbed and retained on the water absorption surface (20) at a predetermined humidity, the mountain building is in the course of walking in the wetland of the mountain path and the spats (1) and shoes (102). The lower end of the water absorption surface (20) is bent toward the inside of the spats (1) toward the shoe surface, so that the mountain building repellent liquid (104) also absorbs water and diffuses into this portion. Therefore, the mountain building is prevented from entering the spats (1).

  There are various mountain building repellents (104), but the most effective mountain building is because the salt water of a predetermined concentration is inexpensive, harmless to humans, has a long-term effect, and can be used easily. It is considered a repellent solution. The specific concentration of the above-mentioned “predetermined concentration” is not particularly limited because it is not the central technical idea of the present invention, but commercially available salt itself is very inexpensive, so water and water are added to the spray (103). It has already been proved that the mountain building repellent effect is sufficient if the salt concentration is such that the salt itself does not melt and settles at the bottom even if it is shaken vigorously with stirring. In addition, even if the salt water in the spray (103) is reduced, it is also an advantage of the present invention that natural water from the Tanigawa can be added to the normal mountain walk, or salt water can be easily made by diverting a little of the drinking water brought. One.

  In the above embodiment, the spats (1) have a reversible structure that can be turned upside down. Therefore, if the water-repellent surface (10) is on the outside and the water-absorbing surface (20) is on the inside, the normal spats can be used. It will have the same appearance.

  FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view when a hill defense spat (1) with a salt pocket (30) according to another embodiment of the present invention is worn. In this embodiment, a water-permeable salt pocket (30) for storing a certain amount of salt (rose salt) is provided at the upper peripheral edge of the water absorbing surface (20) exposed on the surface. For example, the water-permeable salt pocket (30) may be bent upward from the water absorption surface (20) and fixed at a plurality of hooks (31) provided at a plurality of locations. There are various salt sizes in the commercially available salt, but this salt pocket (30) does not fall out of the mesh itself, but the salt stored in the salt pocket (30) is simply dropped on the surface of the salt pocket (30). It is good to have a mesh that dissolves and leaches out as salt water.

  In the hill defense spats (1) provided with the salt pocket (30), an appropriate amount of salt brought into the pocket is put, and water put in, for example, a plastic bottle is dropped from the surface. The dropped water dissolves the salt in the salt pocket (30) to become salt water, oozes out from the salt pocket (30) as a mountain building repellent solution, and absorbs and diffuses over the entire water absorbing surface (20) exposed on the surface. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the mountain building from entering from the contact surface between the upper and lower ends of the spats (1) and the pants and shoes. Then, before the water absorption surface (20) is naturally dried, water is dripped again on the surface of the salt pocket (30), and salt water as a mountain building repellent solution is always absorbed and retained throughout the water absorption surface (20), thereby avoiding mountain building repellent. The effect can be maintained for a long time. In this case as well, only inexpensive commercially available salts and water are used, odorless, inexpensive, harmless to humans, effective for a long time, and easily used as a mountain building repellent. it can.

  FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the salt pack of the present invention. In this embodiment, a disposable salt pack (40) preliminarily packed in a connected wiener shape or belt shape in which a fixed amount of salt is stored in a water-permeable tube can be used instead of the rose salt. The length may be cut in advance around the leg, or may be connected to a long length and cut to the required length when used. In any case, unlike rose salt, climbers bring a plurality of salt packs (40), and when all the salt in one salt pack has been used, the aforementioned salt pocket (30) It becomes possible to make a salt water as a mountain building repellent solution by re-storing the spare salt pack (40) inside.

  FIG. 4 is a sectional view of a salt pack (40) with a binding string (41) according to another embodiment of the present invention. This salt pack with a binding string may be used in the same manner as the salt pack shown in FIG. 3, but as shown in FIG. 5, it is bound to a general existing spats (107) with a binding string (41), and from above As appropriate, salt water can be made by dripping water, and the salt water can be used as a mountain building repellent solution on the surface of the spats (107). As a result, even with existing spats, if there is only a salt pack (40) with this binding string (41), it is possible to obtain a mountain building repellent effect simply by dripping water.

  Wearing the hill defense spats (1) of the present invention and absorbing and diffusing salt water as a mountain building repellent solution on the water absorption surface, it is odorless, inexpensive, harmless to humans, and easy to build for a long time. Defensive measures are possible.
