Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a buckle stopper for fixing a stopper band attached to shoes, sandals, etc.

As shown in FIG. 1, a conventional buckle stopper 1 has a support portion 4 for supporting a buckle 3 formed at one end of a buckle stopper main body 2, and is paired with a male hook (not shown) on the back side of a body portion 5. A butterfly 2 with a female hook 6 facing downward and a flat surface formed on the other end.
Number 7 is provided.

By putting a finger on the hinge 7 and pulling it up, the female hook 6 is removed from the male hook.

However, in such a conventional buckle stopper 1, since the hinge 7 is formed flat (straight), when the finger is placed on the hinge 7, the finger touches the edge of the hinge 7 in a line contact state. It stays in place, and the finger grip is shallow.

For this reason, there is a drawback that the buckle stopper 1 cannot be easily and quickly removed, and there is also a drawback that when the buckle stopper 1 is put on the buckle, the edge of the hinge 7 digs into the finger and causes pain.

The object of the present invention is to eliminate these conventional drawbacks and provide a buckle stopper that can be easily and quickly removed and that does not hurt fingers when removed.

The gist of the present invention for achieving such an object is characterized in that at least the tip of the hinge of the buckle stopper body is curved.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.

As shown in FIG. 2, this buckle stopper 11 has a buckle stopper main body 12 formed in a plate shape and elongated.
At one end of 2, there is a support part 14 that rotatably supports the buckle 13.
For example, a female hook 16 with a built-in elastic ring 20 is provided facing downward, forming a pair with a male hook (not shown) on the back side of the body 15, and furthermore, on the other end of the body 12, a female hook 16 is provided facing downward. A hinge 17 is provided one step lower than 15.

The hinge 17 is formed, for example, in a wavy shape so that the tip 18 faces upward, and the tip 18 has corners removed and a curved surface so that it does not hurt when touched by a finger.

The stepped width of the hinge 17 corresponds to a position somewhat closer to the main body 12 than the distal end (lower end) of the female hook 16.

The buckle stopper 11 of the present invention configured as described above holds a stop band (not shown) with the buckle 13 supported by the support portion 14. By fitting the female hook 16 into a male hook (not shown) that is the counterpart of the female hook 16, the fastening bands attached to shoes, sandals, etc. are interconnected. Alternatively, insert one of your index fingers into the back side of the hinge 17, and then push it upwards to release the fit between the female hook 16 and the male hook.

Therefore, in this embodiment, the hinge 17 is once dropped from the body 15 to the distal end 19 of the female hook 16, and then the tip 18 is flipped up. The stop band is hinge 17
Even when the end of the stopper band is extended to a position where it reaches , the end part of the stopper band does not jump up unnecessarily, and there is no unsightly appearance.

Further, since the hinge 17 is stepped and lowered, space can be saved and a compact buckle stopper 11 can be obtained.

Next, different embodiments of the present invention will be explained using FIG.

In the description of this embodiment, parts that are considered to have the same or equivalent configuration as those of the first embodiment are given the same reference numerals, and redundant explanation will be omitted.

The main difference between the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 and the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 is that in the embodiment shown in FIG. On the other hand, in the case of FIG. 4, the hinge 27 is hardly stepped in the direction of the distal end 19, and only the tip 28 is formed by flipping up like a ski tip.

In this case, the molding process of the hinge 27 is somewhat easier than that of the one shown in FIG. 2, and it is also easier to insert a finger into the back side of the hinge 27.

As is clear from the above description, according to the buckle stopper of the present invention, at least the tip of the hinge is curved, so that when the finger is placed on or removed from the hinge, the finger comes into surface contact with the hinge.

Therefore, unlike the case of conventional line contact, the hinge can be easily and quickly removed by applying a small amount of force.
Furthermore, it can be expected to have excellent practical effects, such as the tip of the hinge not digging into fingers and causing pain as in the past.
