Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To prevent the needle from being buried in the needle thread. [Structure] A substantially spherical body portion 10 and a base end surface 12 are formed, and a constricted portion 14 is formed between the base end surface 12 and the body portion 10, and the base end surface 12 has a shape larger than that of the base end portion of a sewing needle. A hole 16 having a slightly smaller diameter is formed. A notch 18 is formed at the tip of the body portion 10 to catch a thread. Sewing needle 2
0 is inserted into the hole 16 on the base end face and the thread 22 is inserted into the constricted portion 14
It is wound around and is fastened by fitting the tip of the thread into the notch 18. When inserting the sewing needle 20 into the needle thread, insert the needle cap with the needle cap attached.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a sewing needle accessory used for dressmaking.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Sewing needles used for Japanese and Western dressing should be stored by piercing the needle thread after use. The needle mountains are made of cotton wrapped in cloth. When inserting a sewing needle into the needle thread, the needle may be buried in the needle thread if it is strongly inserted. In addition, the sewing needle that has been stabbed in the needle thread often becomes naturally buried in the needle thread as the needle thread is used. When taking out the sewing needle buried in the needle thread, it must be advanced toward the proximal end. However, although the sewing needle can advance in the tip direction in the needle thread, it is not easy to advance the sewing needle in the opposite direction and take it out from the needle thread because the base end surface of the sewing needle is a flat surface.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention aims to prevent the sewing needle from being buried in the needle thread.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention is a needle cap that is made of a rubber-like elastic body and has a hole that is detachably attached to the base end portion of a sewing needle. In a preferred embodiment, a constricted portion for winding the thread on the outer surface and a notch for sandwiching the thread are formed.

[0005]

[Action]

 If the needle cap is attached to the base end of the sewing needle and attached, the sewing needle will not be buried in the needle thread because the needle cap is attached even if the sewing needle is strongly stabbed in the needle thread. The sewing needle that has been set will not be naturally buried in the needle thread as the needle thread is used.

[0006]

【Example】

 FIG. 1 shows a state in which a sewing needle 4 is inserted into the needle thread 2. The sewing needle 4 is buried in the needle thread 2 when the sewing needle 4 is strongly inserted or when the needle thread 2 is used.

FIG. 2 shows an embodiment, and (A) is a perspective view thereof. This needle cap has a substantially spherical body portion 10 and a base end surface 12, and a constricted portion 14 is formed between the base end surface 12 and the body portion 10. A hole 16 having a diameter slightly smaller than the outer shape of the proximal end portion of the sewing needle is formed on the proximal end surface 12 so as to be detachably attached to the proximal end portion of the sewing needle so as to extend to the middle of the body portion 10. Has been formed. A notch 18 for picking up a thread is formed at the tip of the body 10. This needle cap is made of rubber-like elastic material such as synthetic rubber or soft resin.

A method of using the needle cap will be described with reference to FIG. The sewing needle 20 is inserted into the hole 16 on the proximal end surface of the needle cap. The hole 16 has a smaller diameter than the base end portion of the sewing needle 20, but since it is formed of a rubber-like elastic body, the base end portion of the sewing needle 20 can be attached in a state where it does not fall naturally. The body portion 10 can be easily removed by pulling it out of the sewing needle 20.

In some cases, the thread 22 may be threaded through the sewing needle 20, and the sewing needle 20 may be stabbed in the needle thread and stored. In that case, the base end of the sewing needle 20 may be inserted into the hole 16 with the thread 22 attached to the sewing needle 20. At that time, if the thread 22 hangs down for a long time, it will be entangled with other sewing needles or threads, so that the thread 22 is wound around the constricted portion 14, and the tip of the thread is fitted into the notch 18 and stopped. As a result, the thread wound around the constricted portion 14 is prevented from coming loose naturally. When inserting the sewing needle 20 into the needle thread, insert the needle cap with the needle cap attached. Even if it is strongly inserted, it stops at the needle cap and the entire sewing needle 20 is not buried in the needle thread.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment. The shape of the body portion 30 of the needle cap is different from that of FIG. 2, and in the embodiment of FIG. 3, the constricted portion 14 for winding the thread and the notch 18 for sandwiching the thread are not provided. Also in the embodiment of FIG. 3, the function of preventing the sewing needle from being buried in the needle thread is the same as that of FIG.

[0011]

[Effect of device]

 If the needle cap of the present invention is attached to the base end of the sewing needle and the needle is inserted into the needle thread in that state, the needle can be prevented from being buried in the needle thread even if it is strongly inserted. Also, by providing a constriction on the outer surface of the needle hat and notches on the body, it is possible to wind the thread around this needle cap even when the thread is attached to the sewing needle, so other threads and You can prevent it from getting entangled with the sewing needle.
