Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a key holding band that is worn on the wrist, arm, etc. to prevent the key from being lost.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, a key is a key that is attached to the wrist, arm, etc. to prevent the key from being lost after putting things in and locking the locker at a pool, golf course, etc., public bath, sauna, etc., or a temporary storage room at a station. A retainer was present. These included rubber bands with keys attached to them, bands with pockets, etc.

Also, Utility Model Application Publication No. 1987-52710, Utility Model Application No. 1977-
As disclosed in Publication No. 137987, a car key (or spare key) is placed in a storage case (bag) so as not to be lost, and this case is attached to the longitudinal direction of a band for wearing on the wrist, etc. Key holders are also known.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

By the way, the former type of key holder seems to be cheap, and it is also uncomfortable because it gets wet with sweat or water, slows drying, and when you open the key, there is a risk of getting water on the lock, which may cause the lock to rust and affect its aesthetic appearance. It was also a cause of damage. Since these devices are not heat resistant and are made of a material that directly transmits metal heat to the skin, they cannot be used particularly in high-temperature places such as saunas.

In addition, with the latter type of key holder, when the band is worn on the arm, the hard key case is held in the circumferential direction of the wrist, arm, etc., so the band does not fit tightly on the wrist, arm, etc., and there is no gap. It was difficult to wear and had poor wearability. In particular, the larger the key, the more difficult it is to wear. Furthermore, if the key case is attached to the length of the band, you must either remove the key case from your arm or remove the key itself from the band when you actually use the key. There was a problem in that the key could not be used smoothly unless it had been used.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

The present invention was made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to
It is easy to wear because it fits tightly on the arm, etc., and the key is easy to use, giving it a high-class image.It is also stable against the heat of saunas, etc., and the metal key does not come into direct contact with the skin. To provide a key holding band which does not cause burns, does not get wet or dries quickly, and does not stretch.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a key holding band with a locking part that can be worn around the circumference of the wrist, etc. The band body is made of a non-wettable plastic material with a high softening point. At the same time, a bag-shaped key storage portion having a tongue protruding perpendicularly to the band body is provided approximately in the middle thereof, and a key is rotatably attached to the tip of the tongue, thereby allowing the key to be inserted into the band body. It is designed so that it can be held along the length of the arm or the like within the key storage section.

[Effect]

The key is held rotatably around the tip of the tongue of the key storage part that protrudes perpendicularly to the band, so the key can be stored along the length of the arm, It sticks tightly to the surface. Furthermore, when the key storage part is worn with the band facing toward the wrist, the tongue of the key storage part protrudes toward the fingers and the key can be rotated, making it easy to turn the key while wearing the band by bending the wrist. It can be used to open and close locks.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

1 is a key holding band according to the present invention, and a case where it is worn on the wrist will be explained. Band body 2
is integrally molded by injection molding using a material that has a high softening point and does not wet, such as ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA). Reference numeral 3 designates a locking tool attached to one end of the band body 2, and a plurality of engagement holes 4 into which the locking tool 3 is engaged are bored along the longitudinal direction of the band main body 2 on the other end, and a plurality of engagement holes 4 are formed along the longitudinal direction of the band body 2, and the locking tool 3 is engaged with the other end. It can be installed circumferentially.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a bag-shaped key storage section provided approximately in the middle of the band body 2, and this key storage section 5 has a tongue piece 6 projecting in a direction perpendicular to the band body 2. A key K is rotatably attached to the key storage part 5, and the key K can be held in a sandwich-like manner along the longitudinal direction of the arm. In the figure,
7 is a bulge provided in the opposite direction of the tongue piece 6.

If the locking tool 3 is made of metal, it is desirable to attach a backing tongue to the locking tool 3 to prevent the metal part from directly touching the skin.

The present invention configured as described above is normally worn on the wrist with the tongue piece 6 facing toward the elbow, but in this case, the tongue piece 6 is provided so as to protrude in a direction perpendicular to the band body 2. Since the key K is held along the longitudinal direction of the arm in the key storage part 5, the key K is held along the circumferential direction of the wrist or arm as in the past. It fits perfectly on the arm and feels extremely comfortable to wear.
When the key K is used, the holding band 1 is removed, the key K is rotated, the key K is taken out from the key storage part 5, and the lock is opened and closed.

Furthermore, when the present invention is worn on the wrist with the finger pointing toward the finger, the tongue piece 6 of the key storage section 5 protrudes toward the palm or the back of the hand, allowing the key K to be rotated and taken out from the key storage section 5. This has the advantage that it is possible to easily open and close the lock using the key K while wearing the holding band 1 without having to remove the holding band 1 by bending the wrist.

Furthermore, since the material of the band body 2 of the present invention is made of plastic with a high softening point, there is no risk of the band softening or elongating due to heat, so the key holding condition is not impaired at all, and it can be used in hot and humid places such as saunas. The location is most convenient. Further, since the key storage part 5 is bag-shaped and has a double structure, the metal part of the key K does not come into direct contact with the skin, so there is no risk of burns.

In this embodiment, an example in which the device is worn on the wrist has been described, but the size may be changed and the device may be configured to be worn on the arm, leg, or the like.

[Effect of idea]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, the key is attached tightly to the arm in the longitudinal direction of the arm, compared to the conventional case where the key is attached to the arm in the circumferential direction.
It is comfortable to wear and there is no risk of accidentally losing the key. Even when the key is to be used, it can be easily taken out of the key storage portion and used, so there is no inconvenience in using the key and it is extremely convenient.
Furthermore, since the band does not soften even in high-temperature places such as saunas, it has various excellent effects such as being extremely convenient to use.
