Alternatively, the present invention relates to an improvement of a cord stopper attached to a cord or the like for wearing such as a cord tie and used for adjusting the length and tightening state of the cord.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a string for tightening attached to clothes, a hat, etc., or a string for tightening attached to a bag such as a rucksack is attached so that the length and tightened state of the string can be adjusted. The equipment is installed.

Conventionally, as a cord stopper of this type, for example, one having a structure disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 49-23670 is known. That is, as shown in FIGS. 10 to 12, the cord stopper has a bottomed cylindrical outer cylinder 6 having a through hole 6a in the side wall through which the cord 5 is inserted, and an inner cylinder 6 having a bottom. Is inserted movably in the axial direction of the outer cylinder 6 and has a columnar fitting 7 having a through hole 7a that matches the through hole 6a of the outer cylinder 6, and is interposed between the outer cylinder 6 and the fitting 7. 6 and a coil spring 8 for urging the fitting member 7 in the direction of pulling out the fitting member 7 from the outer cylinder 6 so that the penetration hole 7a of the fitting member 7 is in a disagreement state. Is pushed into the outer cylinder 6 against the biasing force of the coil spring 8, the through hole 6a of the outer cylinder 6
And the through hole 7a of the fitting element 7 are aligned with each other.

In the cord stopper, as shown in FIG. 11, the fitting 7 is pushed into the outer cylinder 6 so that the through hole 6a of the outer cylinder 6 is formed.
And the through hole 7a of the fitting 7 are matched with each other, and in this state, the string 5 is pulled in the tightening direction or the loosening direction, or the string stopper is moved along the string 5,
It is possible to freely adjust the length, the tightened state, or the connecting position of the string 5. Further, as shown in FIG. 12, when the fitting member 7 is released from being pushed, the fitting member 7 is moved by the biasing force of the coil spring 8 in the direction of coming out of the outer cylinder 6, and the through holes 6a, 7a are in a disagreement state. The cord 5 is held between the corners of the through holes 6a and 7a. As described above, by using the cord stopper, the length and tightened state of the cord 5, or the connecting position of the cord 5 can be freely adjusted.

[0005]

In the conventional cord stopper, circular through holes 6a and 7a are formed in the outer cylinder 6 and the fitting 7, respectively, and both ends of the cord 5 are inserted into the through holes 6a and 7a. Since it is configured to be inserted through, the two ends of the string 5 must be inserted through the through holes 6a and 7a of the outer cylinder 6 and the fitting 7 when the string 5 is attached. As a result, when both ends of the string 5 are fixed to a sewn product such as clothes, a string stopper must be attached to the string 5 in advance, and there is a problem that it is difficult to sew. Further, when both ends of the string 5 are not fixed to the sewn product such as clothes, the string stopper can be attached to the string 5 after sewing, but the through hole 6 formed in the outer cylinder 6 and the fitting 7
Since a and 7a are relatively small, it is difficult to pass both ends of the string 5 through the outer cylinder 6 and the through holes 7a6a of the fitting 7, and there is a problem that it takes time to pass the string 5. Of course, the string stopper is
Since the cylindrical fitting 7 is inserted into the cylindrical outer cylinder 6, the fitting 7 rotates with respect to the outer cylinder 6 and the through hole 6a of the outer cylinder 6 and the through hole 7a of the fitting 7 are formed. May be inconsistent with each other, which may promote the above problem. Furthermore, the string 5
If both ends of the cord 5 are unraveled, it will be difficult to pass them through the through holes 6a and 7a.
Another problem has arisen in that both ends must be treated.

The present invention was devised in order to solve the above problems, and the purpose thereof is to be able to surely attach the cord even if both ends of the cord are fixed to a sewing product or the like. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cord stopper which is capable of smoothly and easily passing a cord and which is extremely excellent in operability.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, the cord stopper of the present invention is formed with a bottom wall, a peripheral wall continuous with a peripheral portion of the bottom wall, and an opposing shape to the peripheral wall. With a string hole,
A main body composed of a slit for inserting a string formed on the peripheral wall to make the opposing string-passing holes communicate with each other; a string-passing hole which can be matched with the string-passing hole of the main body, and a body for connecting to the string-passing hole An operating body that has a slit for string insertion that can match the slit and that is slidably fitted in the peripheral wall of the main body and prevented from coming off from the main body; And an elastic body for urging the main body and the operating body in a direction in which the main body and the operating body are separated so that the slit of the main body and the slit of the operating body are in a disagreement state, respectively. It is composed of.

[0008]

In the state where the operating body is not operated, the cord stopper is urged in a direction in which the main body and the operating body are separated by the elastic force of the elastic body, and the cord passing hole and the slit of the main body are separated from the operating body. The string holes and slits are in disagreement, respectively.
When the operating body is pushed from the above state and pushed into the main body against the biasing force of the elastic body, the string passing hole of the main body and the string passing hole of the operating body, the slit of the main body and the slit of the operating body And match respectively. Pass the string through each slit in this state,
The cord is positioned in the cord through holes of the main body and the operating body. Then, when the pushing of the operating body is released, the operating body moves in the direction away from the main body by the urging force of the elastic body, and the respective cord through holes of the main body and the operating body become disengaged, and the corner portions of the respective cord through holes are You will be holding a string. As a result, the string stopper and the string become relatively immovable. On the other hand, when the operating body is pushed into the main body while the string is being held, the string holding holes of the main body and the operating body are aligned and the held state of the string is released, and the string stopper and the string are relatively moved. It becomes movable. By pulling the string in this state or moving the string stopper along the string, the tightened state, length, etc. of the string can be freely adjusted.

In this cord stopper, slits are formed in the main body and the operating body so as to respectively communicate with the cord passage holes formed therein, and the cords are inserted from the slits into the cord passage holes. It is extremely easy to pass the cord through the hole, and it is possible to pass the cord other than the tip of the cord. As a result, even when both ends of the cord are fixed to a sewn product such as clothes, it is not necessary to attach the cord stopper to the cord in advance, and the cord stopper can be attached after sewing. Further, since the string is passed through the slit and then through the string passing hole, it is extremely easy to insert the string, and it does not take time to pass the string. In addition, since you can pass the part other than the tip of the string through the string through hole, even if both ends of the string are loosened,
The string can be passed easily and easily. Still, it is extremely convenient because it is not necessary to treat both ends of the string so that both ends of the string are not loosened.
