Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To reuse plastic bags (shopping bags) as drainers for kitchen garbage. [Structure] A first plate 7 in which a large number of needles 9 are erected, a second plate 11 having a hole 13 at a position opposed to the needles 9, and the first and second plates are opposed to each other. A plastic pouch puncher comprising a needle and a pivoting means 1 supporting the holes so that they fit together.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a puncher for punching a large number of holes in a plastic bag. The puncher of the present invention can save resources by reusing a plastic bag (shopping bag) used in supermarkets, etc. as a drainer for kitchen kitchen waste.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, kitchen garbage is used in the corner of the sink using a hard plastic container for perforated water draining called a triangular corner or a wire mesh container, in which a multi-hole plastic bag with a large number of small holes is supported, or It is customary to support a perforated plastic bag in a ring-shaped frame, store the garbage in it, and discard the bag when it is full. On the other hand, as free shopping bags in supermarkets, etc., a huge amount of plastic bags are brought into the home and are also used as garbage containers. However, among these, small plastic bags have almost no use, so they are simply discarded as garbage, which is a waste of resources.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 As the drainer bag, a new plastic bag with many small holes perforated as described above is commercially available, while a small shopping bag is discarded without being reused. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to reuse the plastic bag from the supermarket etc. as the draining bag and save resources without purchasing a new perforated bag.

[0004]

[Technical Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention provides a plastic perforator for recycling as a drainage bag by perforating a large number of small holes in a plastic bag such as polyethylene. That is, the present invention relates to a first plate on which a large number of needles are erected, a second plate having holes at positions facing the needles, and a first plate and a second plate at the holes facing the needles. Is a plastic perforator, which comprises pivoting means for supporting one another in a fitted manner.

[0005]

[Effect of device]

 According to the present invention, a plastic bag from a supermarket or the like can be reused as a draining bag to save energy.

[Explanation of Examples]

 Embodiments of the punch of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of the plastic bag punch of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of an essential part thereof, and FIG. 3 is a sectional view showing a usage state. In FIG. 1, the punching device includes a base plate 3 and 5 further pivotally attached by a hinge 1, a needle plate 7 supported on an upper surface of the base plate 3, and a hole plate 11 supported on a lower surface of the base plate 5. It consists of The needle plate 7 is formed by erecting a large number of needles 9 on a substrate 8 at regular intervals, and is preferably integrally formed from a rigid and rigid plastic material such as polycarbonate or polypropylene. Alternatively, the needle 9 may be made of metal and the substrate 8 may be made of plastic or wood. In some cases, the needle plate 7 and the base plate 3 may be integrally formed of the same material.

The hole plate 11 is provided with holes 13 having a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the needle 9 at each position corresponding to the needle 9. Experiments have shown that a sufficient drilling function can be obtained even if the diameter of the hole 13 is about twice as large as the diameter of the needle 9. For example, a hole diameter suitable for using a plastic bag for draining kitchen garbage is about 2 to 4 mm, so when the needle is set to this size, the hole diameter (in the case of a taper hole) is 1.1 Approximately 2 times is sufficient for perforation. This is because during a piercing operation, the particular set of needles and the plastic around the holes is held relatively tensioned by the multiple needle-holes that surround them. The distance between the needle and the hole may be around 1 cm. The hole 13 may have a constant diameter or a tapered hole. The material of the hole plate 11 may preferably be made of the above plastic material, or may be made of a softer plastic material, wood, metal or the like.

In order to use the punching device of the present invention constructed as described above, the portion near the bottom of the plastic bag is sandwiched between the needle plate 7 and the hole plate 11 and both plates are pressed from above and below. . This makes it possible to provide a large number of drain holes at predetermined locations on the plastic bag.

Claims (2)

[Scope of utility model registration request] 1. A first plate on which a large number of needles are erected, a second plate having holes at positions facing the needles, and the first and second plates having holes facing the needles. Plastic pouch piercer, comprising: pivoting means for supporting each other in a mating relationship. 2. The pivot means is formed by pivotally attaching the base plates of the second plate to each other at one edge, and the first base plate is provided with the first base plate.
The plate is a plastic perforator which supports the second plate on the inner surface of the second base plate.
