[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a drawstring of an animal, and more particularly to a drawstring of an animal used for taking a pet, such as a dog or a cat, out of doors and taking a walk.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, such a drawstring of an animal is used by being connected to a collar or a torso worn on an animal such as a dog or a cat. Alternatively, there are various materials such as those having a knitting structure, those having a braided structure, and those having a woven structure.

[0003]

By the way, a dog or the like may be taken for a walk in the early morning, when the night has not yet dawned, or in the early morning, or even after the outside has become dark. On the other hand, the traffic volume of automobiles and motorcycles is steadily increasing, and since the automobiles are running early in the morning and at night, they often encounter automobiles and motorcycles. People walking dogs and others are distracted by dogs and win, and are less likely to notice cars and motorcycles. In addition, people who are driving a car or a motorcycle have reduced attention to walking people at times of low traffic or roads, such as when it is still dark in the early morning, and people walking in black clothes It is inconspicuous when doing. In addition, animal drawstrings are available in one-color finish, multi-color finish using multiple colors, or those with patterns, but they are often noticed by people driving a car. Inconspicuous. Thus, encountering such both is dangerous and often unintentional.

[0004] Therefore, if a person who takes a dog or the like for a walk in the early morning when it is still dark or at night is dressed in white and conspicuous, the above-mentioned problem can be solved somewhat. However, it is inconvenient because of the restrictions on clothes and the degree of freedom is not enough.

[0005] An object of the present invention is to provide an animal drawstring which can be added to a string body itself with a function that is easily noticed by a person driving a car by making use of the characteristics of the material of the string body, thereby achieving traffic safety. Is to do.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, the drawstring of an animal according to the first aspect of the present invention is obtained by sewing, knitting, incorporating, or weaving a high-intensity reflective strip into the string. It is characterized by having.

[0007] In such a configuration, the high-brightness reflective strip sewn, woven, incorporated, or woven into the cord is reflected at a high brightness when illuminated by the light of an automobile, and shines from a distance. But it's so noticeable that even if you're taking a walk with a dog in the early morning or when it's still dark,
It is easy to notice the presence and movement of the long drawstring, which is illuminated by the light and the high-intensity reflective strip is shining, from afar, and it is possible to respond to people walking such as dogs with ample room, Accidents and dangerous thoughts can be prevented beforehand, as well as limited clothing.

[0008] In the case of a chain of the chain type, the gaps arranged regularly are sewn, and in the case of a string which is a leather string, it is sewn therethrough.
Alternatively, in the case of a woven fabric, the high-intensity reflective strips may be woven, incorporated, or knitted as a thread forming the tissue, or sewn using the stitches, braids, or weaves, as in conventional strings. Sewn or knitted or embedded normally,
Or because it can be woven, it does not cause a cost increase, the high-brightness reflective strip does not peel off and the life is not shortened. It can also serve as a unique decoration depending on the difference in texture, etc., and the commercial value is improved.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect, the high-brightness reflective strip is a resin tape.

In such a configuration, in addition to the first aspect of the present invention, since the high-intensity reflective strip is a tape, even if only one is sewn or knitted or incorporated or woven, light can be emitted. Since the width to be sufficiently conspicuous when bathed is freely obtained, it is not necessary to sew, knit, or incorporate, or woven a large number of high-intensity reflective strips, so the cost is reduced accordingly, The specificity when also serving as decoration increases.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Some embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment 1) Embodiment 1 shows a case of a drawstring A using a cord body 1 made of synthetic resin fiber and made of a tape-shaped woven cord as shown in FIG. String 1
As shown in FIG. 3, a warp 2 composed of a yarn or a fiber bundle and a weft 3 are arranged, and the warp 2 arranged in the width direction of the cord body 1 is a spiral weft 3 in which adjacent ones have a predetermined phase. Has a basic structure in which the warp 2 is regularly sunk into both the weft 3 of the cylindrical surface layer and the weft 3 of the back surface layer. It has a thick double weave structure in which the surface layer and the back surface layer of the shape are integrated. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it may be woven in any manner, and braid or braid may be applied. The present invention can also be applied to a chain type or a leather type.

The tape-shaped cord 1 is cut to a predetermined length, and the folded portion is held at the hand side by heat welding, sewing, or binding them together in the middle of the cord 1. A loop portion 4 for connection is formed, and a small loop portion 5 for connection is similarly formed on the distal end side, and a connection fitting 6 for a collar or a body ring (not shown) is connected to the loop portion 5 to form a normal loop. The drawstring A is constituted.

A high-intensity reflective strip 7 is woven into the cord 1 constituting the drawstring A by utilizing the woven structure. However, it can also be sewn using the texture of the cord body 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the high-intensity reflective strip 7 is formed by forming a layer of transparent fine beads 7c on one surface of a synthetic resin base material 7a via an adhesive 7b. If you take a bath, it will be reflected and glow with high brightness. Such a high-brightness reflective strip 7 is formed of transparent fine beads 7 on one side of a wide and long synthetic resin sheet via an adhesive 7b.
It is preferable to use a material obtained by cutting the material having the layer c formed to have a predetermined width in terms of productivity and use in obtaining materials having various widths as required.

It is characterized by being sewn or knitted, or incorporated or woven.

As described above, when the high-intensity reflective strips 7 woven into the string body 1 are exposed to the light of a light from a car or the like,

Further, in the first embodiment, since the cord 1 has a woven structure, it is woven or sewn using a weave, so that the high-intensity reflective strip 7 is attached to the conventional cord 1. As we can usually weave or sew,
It does not cause an increase in cost, the high-brightness reflective strip 7 does not peel off and does not shorten its life, and the texture of the high-brightness reflective strip 7 with the material of the cord 1 Depending on the difference, etc., it can also serve as a unique decoration, and the commercial value is improved. In the first embodiment, with the intention of such decoration and to make the high-brightness reflective strip 7 sufficiently stand out when exposed to light, FIGS. As shown in FIG. 2, the high-intensity reflective strips 7 are woven along both side edges 1a of the cord body 1 to form a border. Then, the high-intensity reflective strips 7 are woven into the weft 3.
It has an appearance of a broken line state where it is regularly interrupted at the part where it dives. Although the high-brightness reflective strip 7 is woven only in the surface layer of the cord 1, it can be woven in the back layer. Assuming that the high-brightness reflective strip 7 itself also serves as the warp 2 and the weft 3 of the cord 1, a special work such as sewing or a special work such as weaving incidentally to ordinary weaving work. Since weaving can be performed without any cost, the cost is further reduced.

Further, since the high-intensity reflective strip 7 is a tape, it is possible to freely obtain a width enough to be conspicuous when exposed to light even by weaving one piece.
Since the labor for weaving a large number of high-intensity reflective strips 7 is not required, the cost is reduced and the peculiarity in the case of also serving as decoration is increased.

(Embodiment 2) In Embodiment 2, as shown in FIG. 5, the tape-like cord 1 having the same weaving structure as in Embodiment 1 is alternately exposed on the front and back surfaces. As described above, the same high-intensity reflective strips 7 as in the case of Embodiment 1 are woven, and four cords are woven in the center of the cord 1. As a result, the high-brightness reflecting strip 7 exerts a high-brightness reflecting function in multiple strips on both sides of the cord 1, and the first embodiment
It is easier to notice when exposed to light than in the case.
