JPS581173Y2 - Band for paper case used for growing enoki mushrooms - Google Patents

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a band for fixing paper in a paper case that is useful for protecting the growth of enoki mushrooms by wrapping it around the mouth of a cultivation bottle during the cultivation of enoki mushrooms.

When cultivating enoki mushrooms artificially, placing a paper wrapper made of paraffin paper in the mouth of the cultivation bottle prevents the enoki mushrooms from hanging down from the mouth of the cultivation bottle and protects the growth process. It is well known that by preventing excessive drying, you can obtain a product that is white and of good quality and has a long handle for its size.

Conventionally, in order to provide a paper case, the paper case was wrapped around the mouth of a cultivation bottle and the top was fixed with a rubber band, or the wrapped case paper and the culture bottle were connected using an arc-shaped plate spring. Methods such as clamping and fixing were used.

However, with this method, work efficiency is poor and only about 500 to 1,000 pieces can be attached per hour.
The cigarette case paper was also severely damaged and could only be used repeatedly about 4 to 5 times on average.

Moreover, the cigarette case paper comes off during use, and it is difficult to remove it from the mouth of the cultivation bottle.

By improving this, the cigarette case paper was made of plastic,
Various attempts have been made to provide the device with removable means.

For example, ■As proposed in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 52-67866, a fitting part is provided at the top of the paper roll case, and a part of the adapter is provided at the bottom; ■As proposed in Utility Model Application No. 54-76152. In addition, locking means are provided on the top and bottom of the cigarette case paper to make it detachable.

However, in the case of the former ■. The effort involved in attaching and detaching the cigarette case paper to the mouth of the cultivation bottle is even lower than that of the conventional technology.
This also complicates the structure of the cigarette case paper.

Also, the latter (■) has a structure that makes it easy to put on and take off.

Since the cigarette case paper itself is pulled to attach and detach, it is easily torn, and if the diameter of the culture bottle changes even slightly, it cannot be attached stably, and above all, it has the disadvantage of poor mechanization workability.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned difficulties.

As shown in Figures 1 and 2, its structural feature is a band that is fixed along the lower edge of the cigarette case paper, and this band is made longer than the lower edge of the cigarette case paper. A protruding part is provided that extends from the side edge of the case paper, and this is used as a knob piece. The reason is that a locking portion consisting of a pair of hook-and-loop fasteners is provided.

By developing such a band for a paper roll case, when attaching the paper roll case to a cultivation bottle, it is possible to complete the installation with one touch by simply fitting the hook-and-loop fastener provided on the locking part of the band. Unlike the conventional products shown in ■ and ■, there is no need to tighten the upper and lower 2 points (1), so the workability is very good, and when attaching and detaching, you only have to pull the band without pulling the cigarette case paper. Because of this, there is less damage to the paper case.

In addition, the use of hook-and-loop fasteners makes it possible to always respond to changes in the diameter of the cultivation bottle, allowing the cigarette case paper to firmly adhere to the bottle mouth.

This will be explained in detail below with reference to the drawings.

The drawings are illustrative of the present invention, and FIG. 1 is a plan view of the paper case in which a band is attached.

FIG. 2 is a partially cutaway perspective view when this is attached to a cultivation bottle.

As seen in these figures, the band 1 of the present invention is used by being fixed to the cigarette case paper 2 in the longitudinal direction along the lower edge 3 of the cigarette case paper 2.

The length of the band 1 is longer than the length of the lower edge 3 of the cigarette case paper Z. That is, one end of the band 1 extends from the left or right side edge 4 of the cigarette case paper 2, and this extended portion can be touched by hand. A knob piece 5 is provided so that it can be easily pinched and pulled.

The width of the band should be about 1 to 2 cm, but if it is too thin, it may be cut when using the edge board, or it may be cut by the stapler 6 used for fixing the paper roll case paper 2 as shown in Figure 1. It becomes impossible to use the stitching needle many times.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a pair of hook-and-loop fasteners are fixed near both ends of the band 1 to form locking parts 7 and 8, and as shown in FIG. 9
After wrapping it together with the paper case paper 2 around the outer periphery of the paper, it is fixed by locking the hook-and-loop fastener.

In this way, the cigarette case paper 2 can be attached with a one-touch operation of simply wrapping it around the mouth 9 of the cultivation bottle and locking the hook-and-loop fastener.

Since the paper roll case paper Z is almost fan-shaped, when it and the band 1 are attached to the mouth 9 of the cultivation bottle, it becomes a bowl-shaped paper case that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, making it possible to grow and protect enoki mushrooms well.

When the paper roll case band of the present invention having the structure described above is used, the efficiency of attaching the paper roll case to the mouth of the cultivation bottle can be greatly improved.

In other words, in the conventional method using rubber bands or leaf springs, as mentioned above, the operator can perform 500 to 1000
However, with one band of this invention, it is possible to attach more than 2,000 pieces per hour.

In addition, with the conventional fixing method described above, the cigarette case paper could only be used 4 to 5 times at most, but with the band of this invention, it can be used 10 to 20 times or more. This made it possible to significantly extend the lifespan of the cigarette case paper.

The entire lower edge of the cigarette case paper is firmly attached to the band of the present invention, and the hook-and-loop fastener is placed inward from the end of the band, so when it is attached to the mouth of a cultivation bottle, a part of the paper casing will close. The upper part was stable because of the overlap, and the trouble of fixing the upper part in addition to the lower part was eliminated.

In addition, when securing with rubber bands or leaf springs, the paper case paper tends to come off from the mouth of the cultivation bottle, but when using the band of this invention, it is secured very firmly, and stable production of mushrooms is guaranteed. has been done.

After use, the paper case can be removed from the cultivation bottle by simply removing the locking part, which improves the efficiency of recycling the cultivation bottle.

Of course, the band of this invention can be used as many times as the paper case can be replaced and reused if the paper case is damaged, and the cost increase due to the band of this invention is minimal. It has many advantages such as:
