Patent Document 1 describes that chopsticks are temporarily fixed to a base with a spring and a magnet, but the chopsticks are not temporarily fixed to a vertical surface or the back of a desk top plate. Commercially available chopsticks cannot be used as a chopstick adsorbent in which iron is embedded in the chopsticks themselves and a magnet is provided on the wall surface described in Patent Document 2. For the temporary fixing of chopsticks described in Patent Document 3, a cap with a magnet (meaning a shape in which one side is closed) can only hang chopsticks.

An object of the present invention is to provide a chopstick holder capable of temporarily fixing commercially available chopsticks on a vertical surface or the back surface of a top plate. The present invention provides a chopstick holder that can insert and hold chopsticks in a through hole formed inside a tubular body and can be temporarily fixed by a magnetic force on the surface of the chopsticks. Further, the through hole of the chopstick holder is tapered to match the tapered shape of the commercially available chopsticks, and the chopstick holder having a large through hole entrance and a slightly smaller exit is provided. Further, the present invention provides a chopstick holder having a chopstick rest portion formed by a recess on one surface of the tubular body or a recessed portion for finger hooking on the side surface of the tubular body. Further, in the present invention, in order to temporarily fix the magnetic material of the chopstick holder, a magnet provided separately is provided as a chopstick holder holder. Further, the present invention provides, when the magnetic material of the chopstick holder is a magnet, a magnetic material provided separately for temporary fixing as a chopstick holder holder.

When you want to use chopsticks, take the temporarily fixed chopstick holder (with chopsticks inserted), remove the chopsticks from it, and turn the holder sideways with respect to the tip of the chopsticks to make a chopstick rest. In addition to this convenience, you can enjoy the gadget-like fun of changing the holder to a chopstick rest. It has excellent stability as a chopstick rest and is designed for washing with water. When the through hole is tapered, the chopsticks are held without rattling when the chopsticks having a tapered shape are inserted. With the chopstick holder holder of the present invention, there is also magical fun that you can hide the chopsticks in a place other than the desk when you don't need them. Further, even if there is no magnetic material nearby, the holder of the present invention makes it possible to temporarily fix chopsticks in many places.

It is a top view of the chopstick holder of the Example of this invention. It is a bottom view of the chopstick holder. It is a front view of the chopstick holder. It is a rear view of the chopstick holder. It is a perspective view of the chopstick holder. FIG. 1 is a sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. It is a top view of the state where the commercially available chopsticks are inserted into the chopstick holders shown in FIGS. 1 to 6. It is the figure which put the commercially available chopsticks in the chopstick rest part in the same chopstick holder. It is a figure which shows the usage around the desk of the chopstick holder. It is a figure which shows the state which looked up from the bottom of the desk in the state of FIG.

FIGS. 1 to 6 show the chopstick holder main body, and FIGS. 7 to 10 show an example of holding a commercially available chopstick.
The chopstick holder 1 has a tubular structure, and a recessed portion 2 for finger hooking is formed on the side surface thereof, and a recessed chopstick rest portion 3 is formed on the upper surface thereof. Reference numeral 4 is a magnetic material made of stainless steel, and four of them are embedded in the lower surface. A through hole 5 is formed in the holder 1, and a chopstick 6 is inserted into the through hole 5 and is held there, for example, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the through hole 5 has a tapered structure in which the chopstick insertion portion is 5a wide and the chopstick outlet portion 5b is narrow as shown in FIG. 4, and has an opening portion 5c. Due to this shape, the chopsticks are firmly held in the holder 1 without rattling. In order to temporarily fix the chopstick holder 1 to the back of the top plate of a commercially available desk 8, a part 7 of the chopstick holder holder is attached in advance.

The holder of the present invention is desirable for university students who live in rent or who are staying in a room at home. If there is a small refrigerator on one floor, the magnetic material of the chopstick holder is used as a magnet and used as iron (magnetic material) for temporarily fixing the entire small refrigerator. In this way, the holder 1 with chopsticks inserted can be attached and placed anywhere in the refrigerator, so it is always on the side of food without having to look for it when eating.

The material of the chopstick holder 1 is preferably made of transparent plastic for young people and women, and wooden for elderly people with a calm feeling. Rubber is desirable for those who have a PC (personal computer) 9 as a part of their daily lives. Because it is a small meal, I want you to wash it and use it repeatedly. Rubber is easy to wash because it can be bent to some extent. The opening portion 5c in FIG. 2 has a function of improving water flow. Since the parts 5a, 5b, and 5c are processed into a curved shape, the structure is such that the corners are not clogged with unwashed dust. Since a general chopstick rest is made of pottery, it is possible to express newness by using gray hard rubber for the chopstick holder 1. For foreigners, the letters "Shinobu" (not shown) are hollowed out on the surface of the holder 1 shown in FIG. If the color of the holder 1 is gray, the letters "Shinobu" can be seen through black when a commercially available black chopstick is inserted, and the beauty can be emphasized. "Ninja" means to support the user from behind like a ninja, and it helps people who have never seen such a product to have an impact and remember it. At this time, it is desirable that the catch phrase is "a must-have item for PC life !! Ninja chopstick holder". Products for women need to undergo major changes in color, concept, and approach, and it is desirable to incorporate many opinions from women.

It is considered that the main parts 7 of the chopstick holders shown in FIGS. 9 to 10 are a magnet plate and a magnet sheet. In the case of a magnet plate, the shipping cost is low because it is small. Further, even when the desk 8 is viewed from above, a part 7 of the chopstick holder holder is thick, so there is an advantage that the setting position of the chopstick holder 1 can be found by groping.
If part 7 of the chopstick holder is a magnet sheet, the position to set the chopstick holder 1 is difficult to understand from the top view of the desk 8 because it is flat, but if you use a wide sheet, there is a problem. can be solved. The biggest merit of using a magnet sheet as a part 7 of the chopstick holder is that it is beautiful with less unevenness because it is a sheet. The reason why 5a in FIG. 7 is slightly larger than 5b is that it matches the tapered shape of chopsticks, but it does not have to be the tapered shape if the cost is very high unless the size is the same at the time of mass production. Considering the size of commercially available chopsticks, the actual size of the chopstick holder is preferably FIG. 5, A = 2 cm, B = 3.5 cm, and C = 1 cm. The magnetic material 4 in FIG. 2 is made of stainless steel nails or screws. It is easy to obtain, easy to process, light, hygienic, rust resistant, and has no magnetism. Since it is used near a PC9 or a smartphone, iron is desirable for the magnetic material 4 if possible.

In today's world, where children often eat lonely and have their own smartphones and handheld game consoles, chopsticks that keep their hands clean when eating and drinking potato chips and cup noodles are convenient, but few people have chopsticks in their rooms. Because chopsticks are easy to come apart and destroy the atmosphere. It gets in the way on a computer rack or a desk 8 full of materials. Many of the foldable chabudai and recent desks do not have drawers, which makes it difficult to put chopsticks in your room. Therefore, I had to go to the kitchen to get the chopsticks. Moreover, the amount of a bag of potato chips is large, and sometimes half is eaten, tied with a rubber band, etc., and often eaten later. You might think that you should use your smartphone or handheld game console in the kitchen, but you can't see emotional products, romantic works, or works including adults in the kitchen. As a result, they have a habit of watching away from people, and they also watch ordinary works by themselves. Until now, it was annoying when I was hungry here. By using the present invention, they can be eliminated.

It is also conceivable to sell the data of the chopstick holder 1 to people in the workplace who own a 3D printer and individuals (people who like modeling artists, plastic models, and diorama creation). If you explain the attractiveness of the product on the homepage and pay the price with a card, the data of the main body 1 of the chopstick holder will be sent to the PC or smartphone, and the stainless steel screw Fig. 2-4 and magnet 7 will be specified by the purchaser by mail. Deliver to the address. The purchaser sends the data of the chopstick holder 1 to a 3D printer to create it. Tighten the screw 4 with your own screwdriver (the screw hole has already been made in the chopstick holder data), and attach a magnet to the back of the top plate of the desk 8 in FIG. 9, and you can complete and use it. Those who have a 3D printer at work or who own it individually can enjoy the chopstick holder 1 cheaply (by using the rest of the resin for the 3D printer) without going to buy it. Other small food items are impossible (because the resin of the 3D printer at the moment is sensitive to heat), but this chopstick holder 1 can be used without problems because it does not touch the food directly. The bottleneck of this sales method is the high shipping cost, but the more you buy in bulk, the more you can survive by setting a reasonable price. I would like my colleagues and friends to give me a test run of the 3D printer and bragging about it. This sales method will be advantageous for me who does not have a connection with the store even when expanding globally. More realistically, in Japan, you can use Mercari (because if you use this app even once, your card and address will be registered and you will not need to enter it again, and if you link with SNS, you will be able to convey product videos, photos and detailed notes. Finally, let the famous Yutuber make a commercial and advertise "On sale at Mercari! Search for a shinobi holder !!", and the person who is interested opens the Mercari app and taps it several times. It can be purchased at, and the next day, the product will be in the mail box at the designated address. Sales can be expanded in this way.
