Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial application field This invention relates to a fruit hanging tool used in gardening, agriculture, etc.

Prior Art The inventor of this invention has previously devised and disclosed a novel fruit hanging device. (Utility Model No. 61-22459)
Although not shown, the idea was to hang a fruit such as a melon in the air to prevent the lower end of the fruit from touching the ground and causing only that part to become white. As a result, this invention had the advantage of preventing the same area from becoming white and reducing its commercial value.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, although the above-mentioned fruit hanging tool solves the problem of the white color of the bottom of the fruit, other problems remain. It is that the bottom of the fruit is damaged.

The reason for this is that the part from which the fruit is suspended is curved and its lower end is integrally connected to the insertion part that is inserted into the ground, so the connecting part becomes a corner, and the bottom of the fruit comes into contact with this corner. It may cause injury.

This invention was made to solve such problems, and its purpose is to prevent the bottom of the fruit from becoming pale due to contact with the ground surface, and to prevent the bottom from being damaged by the corners. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a fruit hanging device.

Means for Solving the Problem The invention to achieve the above object is described as follows: An insertion rod 2 whose lower end 1, which is thrust into the ground, is sloped so that the cross-sectional area becomes smaller toward the end; The body is formed by a hanger 4 that is integrally connected to the upper part of the insertion rod 2; it is curved to form a convex shape in a substantially horizontal direction between the top and bottom, and due to the curvature, there is a space for storing fruit inside the curved part. the hanger 4 forming a space 3; a fruit support part 5 formed on the upper part of the hanger 4; a substrate 9 provided on the main body and covering a connection part of the hanger 4 with the insertion rod 2; A fruit hanging device characterized by comprising:

Function: The insertion rod 2 is inserted into the ground surface, the fruit is supported by the support part 5, and the fruit is located in the space 3 of the hanger 4 for storing fruit.

That's how the fruit grows.

Even if the fruit grows and increases in size, the space 3 is formed in advance in anticipation of the increase in size, and its bottom does not touch the ground surface. This prevents the bottom of the fruit from becoming white and reducing its commercial value.

Also, since the curved lower end of the hanger 4 is integrally connected to the upper part of the insertion rod 2, the connecting portion of the hanger 4 forms a corner, but this connecting portion is covered and the The presence of the substrate 9 prevents the fruit from touching the corners and thus from damaging its bottom.

Embodiment In Fig. 1, this hanging tool is made of synthetic resin as an example, 2 indicates an insertion rod, and 1 is the lower end thereof, which has an inclination that reduces the cross-sectional area toward the tip. It is definitely formed. Reference numeral 4 denotes a hanger integrally connected to the upper end of the insertion rod 2, which is curved so as to be convex in a substantially horizontal direction between the upper and lower parts, and 3 is formed by the same curvature. This is a space for storing fresh fruits. 5 indicates a fruit support formed at the upper end of the hanger 4.
Further, 7 indicates a lower end portion of the hanger 4, and 9 is a substrate, which is provided on the main body and is formed to cover the lower end portion 7 connected to the insertion rod 2. Next, in FIG. 2, 11 is the soil, and in FIG. 1, 12 is the fruit, and 13 is the shank. In FIG. 3, reference numeral 14 denotes a support end of the support portion 5, which is formed diagonally upward as shown in FIG. 5, and is formed to prevent the peg 13 of the fruit 12 from falling. 15 is an opening, 16 is a hole, 17 is a recess, and 18 is a stalk of the fruit 12.

Further, the base plate 9 is formed so that its lower surface is in contact with the ground surface when the base plate insertion rod 2 is inserted into the soil 11, and thereby presses the ground surface, thereby preventing the entire body from tilting. It's getting old.

The cross section of the insertion rod 2 was formed into a cross shape as shown in FIG. 4, for example.

In addition, the hanger 4 has a through hole 19 in its upper part, for example.
is formed. This through hole 19 may be located in another part of the hanger 4 without any problem. This through hole 19 is used for carrying, etc., through which a string or the like can be passed. Further, as shown in FIG. 8 as an example, this hanging tool is formed with a substantially disk-shaped hanger 4a.

The fruit support portion 5a of this hanging tool was formed as shown in FIG. 11. In the figure, 16a is a hole, 20 is a groove, and 21 is a reinforcing portion. Another example of this hanging tool was formed as shown in FIG. In the figure, 22 is a reinforcing member made of iron wire or an iron plate, and the member 22 is formed by insert molding.

Further, as an example, it was formed as shown in FIG.

That is, as shown in the same figure, the lower part of the hanger 4 is formed to be wide, thereby increasing the support strength of the hanger 4 for hanging fruits.

Effects of the device Since this device is configured as described above, the fruit grown using this hanging device is
The lower end of the hanger 4 can be prevented from becoming white in color, and by integrally connecting the lower end of the hanger 4 formed in a curved manner to the insertion rod 2, the corner formed at the connection part can be prevented. By covering the corner portion with the cover 9, it is possible to prevent the fruit from touching the corner portion and causing damage.
The hanger 4 is curved so as to be convex in a substantially horizontal direction between the upper and lower ends, and has a fruit support part 5 at its upper end and an insertion rod 2 at its lower end.
By integrally connecting the fruit, the center of gravity of the fruit supported by the support part 5 can be positioned approximately above or near the insertion rod 2, and the whole is stabilized during use. be able to.
