It is the perspective view which showed 1st Embodiment of the holder. The 1st Embodiment of a holder is shown, (A) is a front view, and (B) is the right view of (A). It is the perspective view which showed 2nd Embodiment of the holder. The 2nd Embodiment of a holder is shown, (A) is a front view, and (B) is a right view of (A).

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
1 to 3 show a first embodiment of a holder 1 according to the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the holder 1 is configured such that a shaft portion or the like from which a door knob 2 projects from a door 3 is suspended as a counterpart member for suspension, and a hook portion 5 for suspension. And a neck portion 6 provided to extend downward from the hook portion 5 and a holder portion 7 provided at a lower portion of the neck portion 6.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the hook portion 5 has a frame body 10 which is formed so as to surround a mating member (such as a shaft portion of the door knob 2). In the first embodiment, the frame body 10 is formed in a substantially annular shape (not endless), and a hook for inserting / removing the frame body 10 into / from a mating member is partially provided in the circumferential direction of the frame body 10. A mouth 11 (an open portion where endlessness is cut) is formed.

The frame body 10 is made of resin, and can be deformed so as to greatly widen the opening size in the frame due to the elasticity of the resin material. Further, when the frame body 10 is stopped from being deformed so as to widen the opening in the frame, it is elastically restored to the original opening size.
In a state where the opening size of the frame body 10 is not widened, the opening width W of the hook opening 11 is formed to be equal to or less than 1/4 of the circumferential direction of the frame body 10. That is, the hook opening 11 is formed narrower than the opening in the frame 10 so as to be narrowed. The opening width W may be a dimension that allows the above-described mating member to pass through. However, if the opening width W is not widened to some extent (unless the opening size of the frame 10 is widened), the mating member. It is preferable that the dimensions be such that they cannot be inserted into the.

The holder part 7 is formed to be thicker than the hook part 5, and an insertion hole 15 is formed in the holder part 7 so as to penetrate the front and back. The insertion hole 15 is configured such that the base portion of the grip rod 17 included in the pet play equipment 16 (see FIG. 1) can be fitted while being detachable.
Since the holder portion 7 is thicker than the hook portion 5, the hole depth as the insertion hole 15 is secured to a predetermined length, the amount of contact with the gripping rod 17 of the pet play equipment 16 is increased, and thus the pet play equipment 16 Stable holding is possible. Moreover, since the insertion hole 15 has penetrated the holder part 7 front and back, the use of the front and back can be freely selected as the holder part 7 (namely, as the whole holder 1).

In addition, as the pet play equipment 16, an accessory 18 that can be pets is shown tied to the tip of the gripping rod 17 with a string 19.
Details of the pet play equipment 16 are not limited in any way, and for example, a plurality of small items 18 or a string 19 made of a wire can be used as a holding target. The small items 18 can be made by imitating small animals, insects, or plants, can be made of a material that contains a fragrance preferred by pets, or can be made to have a sound such as a bell. The gripping rod 17 can also be a target having a circular cross section (including a small diameter such as a wire rod), a square or a plate cross section.

  The neck portion 6 connects the hook portion 5 and the holder portion 7 so that the holder portion 7 is disposed at a position facing the hook opening 11 of the hook portion 5. More specifically, the neck portion 6 starts from one corner of the hook opening 11 in the hook portion 5, and the width center (1/2 W position) of the hook opening 11 and the insertion hole 15 in the holder portion 7. The imaginary line S connecting with the center of the curve is curved with an arc curve so as to be eccentric to the outside (the right side in FIG. 3A).

Since the neck portion 6 is provided in such an arrangement, when the hook portion 5 is inserted into the mating member, the neck portion 6 does not interfere with the neck portion 6 but rather the neck portion 6 serves as a guide to the hook portion 5. The advantage of guiding to the side member (making it easy to insert) is obtained.
In the first embodiment, a sliding surface 23 having a convex radius is formed at one corner of the hook portion 11 on the opposite side of the hook portion 5 from where the neck portion 6 is provided. This sliding surface 23 provides an advantage that the hook portion 5 can be easily inserted and guided with respect to the counterpart member.

  In the holder 1 having such a configuration, the hook portion 5 is inserted and suspended from the counterpart member, and the base portion of the grip rod 17 in the pet play device 16 is inserted into the insertion hole 15 of the holder portion 7. With this alone, the pet play equipment 16 can be effectively utilized to eliminate the stress of the pet and to solve the lack of exercise, without the need for the owner or the like to attend. In addition, it is possible to continue long-term relief of pets' stress and lack of exercise.

Even if the owner or the like opens or closes the door 3 in a normal life, or when the wind blows on the door 3 (even if the pet does not act in a pet-like manner), the pet play equipment 16 is small. Since 18 becomes swaying, there is also an advantage that the pet can be interested (inducing solo play).
Moreover, in this holder 1, the play equipment 16 for pets comes to play the weight action of a pendulum, and the attitude | position which the hook part 5 faces the hook mouth 11 down inevitably is hold | maintained. Therefore, even if the hook portion 5 is strongly swung around the mating member due to a pet jumping or the like, the holder portion 7 does not come off from the mating member. In the hook portion 5, if the frame body 10 has the elasticity described above, the action of preventing the detachment is further enhanced, which is preferable.

4 and 5 show a second embodiment of the holder 1 according to the present invention. The most different point of the holder 1 of the second embodiment from the first embodiment is that the holder portion 7 is also provided for the hook portion 5. That is, a plurality of holder portions 7 are provided.
The holder portion 7 provided for the hook portion 5 is formed with the same thickness as the hook portion 5. Therefore, when the hook portion 5 is inserted into the mating member, the holder portion 7 provided on the hook portion 5 does not interfere with the mating member and interfere.

Needless to say, in the second embodiment, the pet play equipment 16 can be selectively held with respect to the plurality of holder portions 7, or the pet play equipment 16 can be held with respect to the plurality of holder portions 7, respectively. Is. For this reason, the degree of freedom is widened as a method of use, which leads to the advantage that the pet is not bored.
Other configurations and operational effects are substantially the same as those of the first embodiment, and the detailed description here is omitted by attaching the same reference numerals to the portions that exhibit the same operational effects.

By the way, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be appropriately changed according to the embodiments.
For example, the holder 1 is not limited to using the shaft portion of the door knob 2 as a counterpart member, but a hook such as a handrail or a hook provided on a top plate, a shelf plate, furniture, or the like of a desk or table. As long as the part 5 can be hooked and hung, it is not limited at all. In other words, the hook portion 5 can appropriately change the shape of the details (the shape for facilitating the suspension) according to the counterpart member to be suspended.

The frame body 10 of the hook portion 5 may be provided with the hook mouth 11 sideways so as to exhibit a C shape. Further, the frame body 10 of the hook portion 5 is not limited to an annular shape, and may be formed in a shape that is bent into a square shape.
The neck portion 6 is not limited to bend with an arc curve, but can be formed as a shape bent in a square, a linear shape, or the like.

In the holder part 7, the insertion hole 15 does not necessarily need to be a through-hole, and may be a closed hole having an abutment. Further, the insertion hole 15 may be formed as a square hole, a screw hole, a spline hole, or the like so as to enhance the anti-slip action or the play prevention action for the grip rod 17 of the pet play equipment 16.
In both the first and second embodiments, the opening in the frame of the hook part 5 (frame body 10) and the insertion hole 15 of the holder part 7 are illustrated as having their axes centered in parallel. However, this is a measure for facilitating demolding when resin molding is performed. However, if other molding methods are employed, or the hook portion 5 and the holder portion 7 are combined with each other, the opening in the frame of the hook portion 5 and the insertion hole 15 of the holder portion 7 are used. Are not necessarily provided in parallel with each other. For example, it is possible to hold the pet play equipment 16 obliquely upward by forming the insertion hole 15 of the holder part 7 obliquely upward.

  The forming material as the holder 1 is not limited to resin, and may be wood or metal.
