Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement in the grip portion of a handcart such as a shopping cart, a luggage cart and a stroller.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, the grip portion of this type of wheelbarrow is
A cover is provided to make it feel good.
As shown in FIG. 4, the cover 1 is a flexible pipe made of synthetic resin or the like, and has a handle 5 of a wheelbarrow.
It was attached by inserting it into the grip portion 6 of. in this way,
The handle 5 in which the cover 1 is attached to the grip portion 6 is attached to the main body of the handcart through a fastener such as a screw.

When the cover 1 is to be replaced due to dirt or damage, the handle 5 is removed from the body of the handcart, the cover 1 is removed from the handle 5, and the new cover 1 is inserted into the grip 6 of the handle 5 and manually pushed. The handle 5 was attached to the body of the car. Therefore, it takes time to replace the cover 1, and the handle 5
It is difficult to attach and detach the cover 1 because the is bent in a U shape.

[0004]

Therefore, according to the present invention,
An object of the present invention is to provide a grip portion of a wheelbarrow in which a cover can be easily attached to and detached from the handle without removing the handle from the main body of the wheelbarrow.

[0005]

To this end, the grip portion of the handcart of the present invention has a pipe-shaped cover when joined,
Form a set of two halves as two halves, cover the two halves on the handle grip and join them, and then attach an elastic ring from the outside to secure both halves to the handle. There is.

Further, in the handgrip of the handcart, a recess is formed at the same position on the outer side of each of the two half bodies, and an elastic ring is fitted into the recess to cover the surface of the cover and the elastic ring. Can be carried out so that the surfaces thereof are flush with each other, and two through holes are provided in the recess near the top of one half, and the through holes are formed in a substantially C-shaped cross section. Locking projections formed at both ends near the notch of the elastic ring are locked, and small recesses are formed near one of the locking projections.

[0007]

In the handgrip of the pushcart of the present invention, the cover that is split in two forms a pipe shape when joined, so that the handle can be covered from the outside. Further, since the cover is attached to the handle and joined, and then the elastic ring is fitted and fixed from the outside, the cover can be easily attached.

If the cover surface and the elastic ring surface are flush with each other, the surface of the cover will not be uneven, so that the user does not feel uncomfortable holding the cover. Further, in the case where a through hole is provided in a recess near the top of one half and locking projections are formed at both ends near the notch of the elastic ring, and a small recess is formed near one of the locking projections, The engaging protrusion of the elastic ring can be engaged with the through hole of the half body. Also, if you insert a screwdriver, etc. into the small recess of one of the locking protrusions of the elastic ring and move the locking protrusion, the locking protrusion will come out of the through hole, so the elastic ring can be removed from the outside. The cover attached to can be easily removed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The grip portion of a handcart according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings showing the embodiments. As shown in FIG. 1, the handgrip of this embodiment has a handle 1 which is pipe-shaped at the time of joining, and a pair of halves 2 and 3 are formed by splitting the cover 1 into two pieces. In a combined state, the elastic ring 4 is fitted from the outside to fix the two halves 2 and 3.

The cover 1 is formed by connecting both halves 2 and 3, and has a pipe-shaped cross section and a U-shape as a whole. The half body 2 has a pipe-shaped half in cross section (see FIG. 1), and has convex portions 2 a formed at both ends in the longitudinal direction. Further, the half body 2 is formed with a plurality of recesses 2b at equal intervals, and two through holes 2c, 2c are provided in the recess 2b near the top of the half body 2. No recess 2b is formed on the top of the half body 2.

The half body 3 has a pipe-shaped half in cross section (see FIG. 1) and has recesses 3a at both ends in the longitudinal direction. Further, the half body 3 is formed with a recess 3 b on the outer periphery at a position corresponding to the upper cover 2. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the elastic ring 4 is made of an elastic material such as synthetic resin and has a substantially C-shaped cross section.
Two locking protrusions 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d are provided at both ends near the notch of the elastic ring 4, and a groove 4e
4f is formed. A small recess 4g is formed on one of the locking protrusions 4a near the notch of the elastic ring 4.

Next, a method of assembling the grip portion of the handcart according to the present invention will be described. Both halves 2 shown in FIG.
If the cover 1 made of 3 is joined and the elastic ring 4 is fitted, the cover 1 can be easily attached to the grip portion 6 of the handle 5 of the handcart as shown in FIG. More specifically, when the grip 6 of the handle 5 is covered with the half body 2 and the half body 3 in the vertical direction, the convex portion 2a of the half body 2 fits into the concave portion 3a of the half body 3. Then half 2
The recessed portion 2b of 3 and the recessed portion 3b of the half body 3 coincide with each other (see FIG. 3).

Next, the elastic ring 4 is formed in the recesses 2b and 3b.
If is fitted, the cover 1 is attached to the handle 5 as shown in FIG. At this time, two locking protrusions 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d formed on both ends of the elastic ring 4 respectively.
Of the two through holes 2c and 2c provided in the recess 2b of the half body 2.
The elastic ring 4 is locked to the cover 1 when inserted into the cover 1. Then, since the surface of the cover 1 and the surface of the elastic ring 4 are flush with each other, the surface of the cover 1 does not have irregularities, and the cover 1 does not feel uncomfortable to be gripped.

In order to remove the grip of the handcart assembled in this way from the handle 5, the tip of a flat-blade screwdriver or the like is inserted into the small recess 4g of the elastic ring 4,
When the locking projection 4a is moved toward the locking projection 4b so that the groove 4e between the locking projections 4a and 4b becomes narrow, the locking projections 4a and 4b of the elastic ring 4 are respectively recessed in the half body 2. Part 2
It comes off from one of the through holes 2c of b. Then, the elastic ring 4 can be removed from the cover 1 by removing the locking protrusions 4c and 4d of the other through hole 2c.

After that, if the half body 2 and the half body 3 are removed from the handle 5, the handgrip of the handcart can be removed from the handle 5.

[0016]

The present invention has the above-mentioned structure, and therefore, provides an excellent grip portion of a wheelbarrow in which the cover can be easily attached / detached without removing the handle from the body of the wheelbarrow. We were able to.
