Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a loop tie fastener used when tightening a string-like necktie, so-called a loop tie.

(Prior Art) Generally, as a loop tie stopper used when tightening a loop tie, those having structures shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, for example, are known.

That is, the loop tie stopper includes a front wall 14 in which a vertically long guide groove 13 is formed, and a left side wall 15 and a right side wall 16 that are connected to the front wall 14 in a facing manner, and whose opposing inner surfaces gradually approach each other as they move downward. , front wall 1
The rear wall 1 is connected to the left and right side walls 15 and 16 to form a gap between which the loop tie 17 is inserted.
8, and a disc-shaped clamping part 2 that is movably accommodated in the gap of the main body 19 and can clamp the loop tie 17 between the left and right side walls 15 and 16.
0 and an operating body 22 consisting of a knob 21 that is inserted through the guide groove 13 of the main body 19 and fixed to the clamping part 20 and is movable in the vertical direction along the guide groove 13. left and right side walls 15,1
6 and the holding part 20 of the operating body 22, a loop tie 17 is connected to the main body 19 as shown by the dashed line in FIG.
are inserted from above to below. Therefore,
The portion of the loop tie 17 that protrudes from above the main body 19 is annular, and this loop portion is wound around the neck.

Thus, when the operating body 22 is moved along the guide groove 13 to the upper position of the main body 19, the loop tie stopper expands the gap between the left and right side walls 15, 16 and the holding part 20, and the loop tie 17 is moved along the guide groove 13. When the operating body 22 is moved below the main body 19 along the guide groove 13, the left and right side walls 15, 16 and the holding part 20 hold the loop tie 17, and the loop tie 17 is held at a predetermined position. will be retained.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) By the way, the loop portion of the loop tie 17 inserted into the loop tie stopper may completely enter into the gap of the main body 19 for some reason (No. 8
(See the position of the two-dot chain line in the figure). In this case, even if the operating body 2
2 to the upper position of the main body 19, the loop portion does not protrude outward from the main body 19, and taking out the loop portion from inside the main body 19 becomes extremely time consuming.

Also, the loop tie stopper is attached to the guide groove 1 of the main body 19.
3 is narrow and the operating body 22 is configured to hardly move left or right relative to the main body 19, so even if the operating body 22 is moved to a position above the main body 19 when inserting the loop tie 17, the left and right side walls of the main body 19 15,1
There is also a problem in that the distance between the holding part 20 of the operating body 22 and the operating body 22 is relatively narrow, making it difficult to pass the loop tie 17 through.

The present invention was devised to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a loop tie stopper that can prevent the loop part of the loop tie from entering the main body, and also allows the loop tie to be easily passed through when it is inserted. There is something to do.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the loop tie fastener of the present invention is provided with a front wall in which a vertically elongated guide groove is formed, and a front wall in which a longitudinal guide groove is formed, and a A left side wall and a right side wall whose inner surfaces gradually approach each other as they go downward, and a rear wall which is connected to the left and right side walls so as to face the front wall and can form a gap between which the loop tie is inserted. a main body, a holding part that is movably housed in the gap of the main body and can hold the loop tie between the left and right side walls; In a loop tie fastener comprising a movable operating part and an operating body, there is provided a structure between the upper end of the front wall and the upper end of the rear wall of the main body to prevent the loop part of the loop tie from entering the gap between the main bodies. A stopper piece is provided to prevent the operation, and the width of the guide groove of the main body is expanded so that the operating body can also move in the left and right directions of the main body.

(Function) When passing the loop tie through the loop tie stopper,
Move the operating body to the upper position of the main body and alternately move it to the left and right positions of the main body, pass each end of the loop tie from above the main body between the left and right side walls and the holding part, respectively, and move it below the main body. Pull out. At this time, the operating body can be moved left and right with respect to the main body, so
The gap between the left and right side walls and the holding part is widened, making it easier to pass the end of the loop tie.

Therefore, when the loop tie stopper moves the operating body to the lower position of the main body, the left and right side walls and the clamping part sandwich the loop tie, and the loop tie is held at a predetermined position, and when the operating member is moved to the upper position of the main body. When it is moved, the gap between the left and right side walls and the clamping part widens, the loop tie is released from clamping, and it becomes possible to move along the loop tie.

Note that this loop tie stopper can prevent the loop portion of the loop tie from entering into the gap in the main body by means of a stopper piece provided on the main body.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings.

1 to 5 show a loop tie according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is composed of a main body 1 and an operating body 2, and the operating body 2 is movable vertically and horizontally with respect to the main body 1. installed on.

That is, the main body 1 is connected to a front wall 4 in which a vertically elongated substantially sector-shaped guide groove 3 is formed, and opposite ends of the front wall 4, and the opposing inner surfaces gradually approach each other as they move downward. In addition, a left side wall 6 and a right side wall 7 having a stepped portion 5 formed on the inner surface of the lower end, and left and right side walls 6,
A rear wall 9 that is connected to the front wall 7 to face the front wall 4 and that can form a gap between which the loop tie 8 is inserted, and a central upper end of the front wall 4 and a central upper end of the rear wall 9. and a stopper piece 10 which is installed between the loop ties 8 and can prevent the loop portion of the loop tie 8 from entering the gap, and these are integrally made of a metal member or a plastic member.

On the other hand, the operating body 2 is housed in the gap of the main body 1 so as to be movable in the vertical and horizontal directions, and can hold the loop tie 8 between the left and right side walls 6 and 7, and has a plurality of anti-slip protrusions on its outer peripheral surface. Formed disc-shaped holding part 1
1 and the holding part 11 by inserting it through the guide groove 3 of the main body 1.
It consists of a knob 12 which is fixed to the main body 1 and is movable vertically and horizontally with respect to the main body 1, and these are made of metal or plastic material.

The width of the guide groove 3 of the main body 1 and the outer diameter of the portion of the knob 12 that is inserted into the guide groove 3 are the same as those of the operating body 2.
can move sufficiently in the left-right direction of the main body 1, and the holding portion 11 is set so as not to slip out of the guide groove 3 outward.

The outer diameter of the holding part 11 and the interval between the left and right side walls 6 and 7 are such that the loop tie 8 can be passed between the left and right side walls 6 and 7 and the holding part 11 when the holding part 11 is moved to a position above the main body 1. The configuration is such that when the clamping part 11 is moved to a position below the main body 1, the loop tie 8 can be reliably clamped between the left and right side walls 6, 7 and the clamping part 11.

Next, the case where the loop tie 8 is passed through the loop tie stop will be explained.

First, move the operating body 2 along the guide groove 3 to a position above the main body 1, then move it to either the left or right position of the main body 1, for example, to the right position, and tie one end of the loop tie 8 to the main body 1. It is inserted into the gap from above, passed between the left side wall 6 and the holding part 11, and pulled out below the main body 1. Next, move the operating body 2 to the left position of the main body 1, insert the other end of the loop tie 8 into the gap from above the main body 1, pass it between the right side wall 7 and the clamping part 11, and Pull it downward.

In this way, the loop tie 8 is inserted through the loop tie stop. Note that when the loop tie is inserted through the loop tie stop, a loop portion is formed above the loop tie stop.

Therefore, the loop tie fastener connects the operating body 2 to the main body 1.
When the loop tie 8 is moved to the lower position, the left and right side walls 6, 7 and the clamping portion 11 clamp the loop tie 8, and the loop tie 8 is held at a predetermined position. At this time, since the stepped portions 5 are formed on the inner surfaces of the left and right side walls 6, 7, the loop tie 8 is prevented from slipping, and the loop tie stopper is reliably held at a predetermined position of the loop tie 8.

Furthermore, when the operating body 2 is moved to the upper position of the main body 1, the gap between the left and right side walls 6, 7 and the clamping part 11 increases, and the loop tie 8 is released from clamping, and the loop tie 8 is moved along the loop tie 8. It becomes possible to move.

In the above embodiment, the front and rear walls 4, 9,
Although the left and right side walls 6, 7 and the stopper piece 10 are integrally formed, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, the front and rear walls 4, 9 and the left and right side walls 6, 7 are integrally formed, and a separately manufactured stopper piece in the shape of a plate, pin, etc. is attached between the front wall 4 and the rear wall 9 by an appropriate method. You can do it like this.

Further, in the above embodiment, the inner surfaces of the left and right side walls 6, 7 of the main body 1 are made flat, and the stepped portion 5 is formed on the inner surface of the lower end thereof, but in other embodiments, the left and right side walls 6, 7 are The inner surfaces of the side walls 6 and 7 may be formed into concave curved surfaces along the outer peripheral surface of the loop tie 8, or grooves for preventing slipping may be formed on the inner surfaces.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the guide groove 3 of the main body 1 has a vertical fan shape, but the shape of the guide groove 3 is not limited to this. If you can also move
Its shape is arbitrary.

(Effect of the invention) As mentioned above, the loop tie fastener of the present invention has a stopper piece between the upper end of the front wall and the upper end of the rear wall of the main body, so the loop part of the loop tie does not enter into the gap of the main body. There are no problems associated with the conventional loop tie described at the beginning.

In addition, the loop tie stopper of the present invention has a structure in which the width of the guide groove of the main body is expanded and the operating body can be moved in the left and right directions of the main body, so when the loop tie is inserted, the operating body can be moved to the left and right positions of the main body. If so, the distance between the left and right side walls and the holding portion can be increased.
As a result, it becomes extremely easy to pass the loop tie through the loop tie stop, and the operability is also excellent.
