Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) This invention relates to improvements in bags that can be attached to cover fruit-bearing fruit such as apples, grapes, or peaches for the purpose of protecting the fruit. In particular, the present invention relates to the provision of a ripening bag that is useful for the natural growth and ripening of fruit set.

(Prior Art) As a recent trend in fruit tree cultivation, it has become common to cover each fruit with a paper bag or the like in order to protect the fruit from pests and to improve its appearance as a product.

For example, in the cultivation of peaches, there has recently been a trend to cultivate peaches with thicker flesh, higher sugar content, and softer fruit. They were prone to sexually transmitted diseases such as perforation disease and anthrax.

In addition, in the cultivation of grapes, the cultivation areas in Japan have a humid climate that is generally unsuitable for grape cultivation, resulting in many diseases, poor fruit set, and problems in fruit quality and coloration. Ori, white astringent disease,
It was susceptible to black pox, late rot, leaf spot, and rust, and was susceptible to pests such as grape phylloxera.

In addition, in the cultivation of apples, the cultivation of varieties with poor bacterial and insect resistance has recently become popular, making them susceptible to black spot, powdery mildew, fruit rot caused by Monilia fungus, and at the same time, peach moth, Pests that damage the fruit, such as the pear moth, were likely to occur.

From this point of view, in modern fruit cultivation, the fruit is wrapped in a bag to protect it from pests and diseases, protect it from wind and rain, and create a better ripening environment for the fruit by making the environment, such as the humidity inside the bag, uniform. Attempts are being made to bring about this.

This type of bagging has an important meaning in fruit tree cultivation due to the recent restrictions on the use of pesticides in fruit tree cultivation and the need for cultivated fruits to have good appearance as a commercial value. It's starting to get old.

(Problems to be solved by the present invention) However, conventional bags for bagging fruits are made of materials that have general characteristics for outdoor bag materials such as water resistance, breathability, and corrosion resistance. It was used to protect the fruit from pests and pathogens simply by means of shielding.

As a result, it is not possible to completely avoid damage caused by diseases caused by the fruit itself or pests that eat through the bag and enter the bag, and the inside of the bag often becomes a humid, closed space suitable for the breeding of pests and diseases. There were also some inconveniences.

In particular, when fruits are wrapped in bags, they are prevented from being exposed to direct sunlight and are not susceptible to changes in temperature between daytime and nighttime. It is not rich in carbohydrates, proteins, fats, etc. found in other fruits.
Furthermore, there is no proliferation of minerals such as calcium, sodium, phosphorus, or iron, which rapidly increase toward full ripeness and give the fruit its characteristic flavor, and it contains especially vitamins A, B ₁ , B ₂ , C, and nicotinic acid. The amount tends to be extremely small.

That is, as a result, the nutritive value inherent in the fruit is lost as a result of bagging the fruit, as well as the flavor, and vitamins tend to be extremely reduced.

This is because the sugar content of the fruit generally decreases due to the time-consuming process from fruit collection to distribution on the market.
This is even more problematic than today's distribution system, where fruit is harvested at 60-70% and is expected to ripen during the shipping process.

(Specific means for solving the problem) The fruit ripening bag according to the present invention is intended to eliminate the inconveniences of conventional bags for bagging, and the bag itself generates electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of 3 μm to 1 mm. The idea was to compose the fruit with materials and force the fruit to ripen completely using the generated electromagnetic waves.

That is, it is a bag for enclosing fruit-bearing fruits, and all or part of the sheet constituting the bag has a wavelength of 3 μm to 1 μm.
The ripening bag for fruits is made of a sheet containing ceramic powder that generates electromagnetic waves of 3 mm to 1 mm, and the fruits covered with the sheet material are constantly irradiated with electromagnetic waves of 3 μm to 1 mm wavelength.

(Operations and Effects) The fruit ripening bag according to the present invention has the following functions and effects due to the structure described above.

(1) Wavelengths generated from sheet material used for bagging
Electromagnetic waves of 3 μm to 1 mm have approximately the same natural frequency as the molecules or atomic combinations of fruits, and force the molecules or atoms of the cells that make up the fruits to vibrate unique to these molecules or atomic combinations. That's true.

(2) As a result, cells are activated by these electromagnetic waves and carry out their own functions, allowing smooth growth of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, etc.

(3) Along with the activation of these cells, the electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of 3 μm to 1 mm that are irradiated to fruits promote the activation of enzyme action, which has an effect similar to the far infrared rays in sunlight, and the calcium, sodium, It promotes the growth of minerals such as phosphorus, which has the characteristic of giving fruits their unique flavor.

(4) Also, 3 μm generated from the bagged sheet material.
Since the electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of ~1 mm and the natural frequencies (wavelengths) of fruit molecules or atoms basically belong to the same range, fruit cells generate heat due to the vibrational friction of the molecules or atoms themselves that make up the cells. , which has the feature of supporting the efficient functioning of the cells themselves. In addition, it is said that the difference between heat generation during the daytime and cooling during the nighttime is significant, so the ripening effect of fruits is good, and it is possible to improve the sugar content and flavor by ripening or additional ripening. Ta.

(5) Furthermore, the air inside the bag enclosing the fruit is converted into active ozonation by the above-mentioned unique electromagnetic waves, and this ozonation phenomenon suppresses the proliferation of disease bacteria inside the bag, particularly preventing the growth of spoilage bacteria or mold. It has the feature of being effectively prevented.

(6) Furthermore, when the bag that had been placed on the fruit is removed, the fruit is directly irradiated with infrared rays from the sun, causing the cells of the fruit that had been activated by the electromagnetic waves of the above-mentioned specific wavelength to be affected by the wavelength. By being irradiated with infrared rays, which are different types of electromagnetic waves, it brings about a unique Topler effect on the cells of the fruit, and as a result, it has the feature that the ripening of the fruit and the complementation of the flavor are more reliable.

(Example) The fruit ripening bag according to the present invention will be described below.

First, the shape of the ripening bag 1 used can be arbitrary depending on the type, shape, size, etc. of the fruit to be bagged, and the sheet material composing the bag 1 itself may be made of cellulose or any other material. There are no particular restrictions on the method of brewing.

The front portion or a sheet portion constituting a part of the bag 1 is made of a material that generates electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of 3 μm to 1 mm. And something like this
Materials that generate electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of 3 μm to 1 mm include metal oxides such as iron, cobalt, nickel, chromium, zirconium, aluminum, and titanium, carbides such as zirconium carbide, chromium carbide, and silica carbide, and silicones such as silicon oxide. We prepared a ceramic made of clay and clay.

As an example, aluminum oxide 40~
70 wt%, 25 to 55 wt% of at least one of silicon oxide and titanium dioxide, 0.5 to 25 wt% of at least one of chromium oxide, manganese dioxide, ferric oxide, calcium oxide, and nickel oxide, and clay are mixed into paper. Aging bag 1 was prepared by straining the mixture.

2 is a fruit, and the fruit 2 is covered with a bag 1 and heated by solar heat a to generate an electromagnetic wave b having a wavelength of 3 μm to 1 mm inside the bag 1.

The electromagnetic waves b generated in this way cause vibrations accompanied by resonance in the polymer combinations of molecules or atoms that make up the cells of the fruit 2, and as a result, activate the cells and bring specific thermal energy to the fruit cells. , which functioned to promote fruit ripening.

In addition, this electromagnetic wave b promotes ozonation of the air inside the bag 1, and by activating the air inside the bag due to this ozonation, it prevents the propagation of disease bacteria or mold inside the bag, and effectively prevents fruit diseases. It functions to eliminate
This, combined with the improvement of bacterial resistance due to the activation of the fruit itself, produced a remarkable effect on preventing fruit diseases.

Furthermore, it functions to rapidly increase the content of calcium, sodium, phosphorus, etc. in the fruit during ripening, and as a result, it has become possible to supply fruit with the original flavor of the fruit.

In particular, even when fruit is harvested at a low sugar content stage and ripened during the distribution process, the umami flavor is not diminished due to the proliferation of these minerals.
