Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a retainer that holds the shock absorber in a compressed state.

Traditionally, this type of retainer has been used since 1975.
The one published in Publication No. -90837 is known.

This conventional retainer has a hook at one end of the band, and holes for hooking the hook at desired locations on the band. In other words, with this device, a hook is hooked into a hole, a loop is made with the band, and the shock absorber is held with that loop.

However, this conventional retainer had the following drawbacks.

That is, unless the hook and the hole exactly match the length of the shock absorber when it is at its maximum compression, the length at its maximum compression cannot be maintained. Furthermore, in order to hang the hook in the hole, a dead dimension is inevitably required, and the shock absorber will expand by that dimension after being set. Furthermore, if the shock absorber's mounting portions are both end ports, there is also the drawback that the retainer cannot be used.

This idea eliminates the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks,
Each of the illustrated embodiments will be described below.

The upper latching piece 1 and the lower latching piece 2 of the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 are made of flexible leather, rubber, cloth, nylon, etc., and are formed as follows. are doing.

That is, the upper retaining piece 1 has a notch 3 formed at one end thereof to provide divided parts 4 and 5, and an integral part 6 remaining at the other end.

String holes 7 to 9 are formed at the ends of the divided parts 4 and 5 and the integral part 6, respectively.

In addition, the lower retaining piece 2 has a central bolt through hole 10.
In addition to forming string holes 11 at both ends,
12, the bolt through hole 10 constitutes the bolt insertion portion of this invention.

Pass the string member 13 through each of the string holes of the upper and lower locking pieces 1 and 2 as described above,
These latching pieces 1 and 2 and the string member 13 constitute a loop, and the way the string member 13 is passed through is as follows.

In other words, in the case of Fig. 1, the upper latch piece 1
Pass one end of the string member 13 through the string passing holes 7 and 8 in series, and then insert the string member 1
Align both ends of 3. Next, pass both ends through the string holes 11 and 12 of the lower latch piece 2, and then
Pass it through the string passage hole 9 of the upper latching piece 1. After twisting both ends of the string member 13 that has passed through the string passing hole 9 once, the string member that has already passed between the string passing holes 12 and 9 is straddled to form a knot 14.

In the case shown in FIG. 2, a knot 15 is tied in advance at one end of the string member 13. Pass the end opposite to the knot 15 through the string passing holes 7 and 8 arranged in series, and then pass it through the string passing holes 11 and 1.
Go through steps 2 and 9 in sequence. and string hole 9
There is also a knot 16 at the other end of the string member 13 passed through.
It is something that creates

In the case shown in FIG. 3, the string member 13 is passed through the string passing holes 7 and 8 in series, and then both ends of the string member 13 are aligned. After the aligned ends are sequentially passed through the string passing holes 11, 12 and 9, a knot 17 is tied at both ends.

In the one shown in FIG. 4, one end of the string member 13 is passed through from the back side of the upper hooking piece 1, the string passing holes 7 and 8 are arranged in series, and the one end is passed through the string passing hole. 11 and 12 is repeated twice to make the string member 13 double, and both ends are tied to form a knot 18.

To set the compression retainer described above on the shock absorber 19, proceed as follows.

First, the divided portions 4 and 5 of the upper retaining piece 1
and the string member 13 passing through the string passing holes 7 and 8.
Expand the ring formed by the In addition, in the case shown in FIG. 4, the double portions 20, 21 between the string passing holes 9 and 7, 8 of the string member 13 are also
They are left sufficiently open corresponding to the dividing parts 4 and 5, respectively.

The lower part of the shock absorber 19 is first inserted into the ring which has been opened sufficiently as described above. Then, pull up the upper latching piece 1 and apply the lower latching piece 2 to the eye 22 of the shock absorber 19.

If an end bolt is provided at the lower end of the shock absorber, the end bolt may be passed through the bolt string passage hole 10 of the lower latch piece 2.

After doing as above, shock absorber 19
is compressed, and the upper latch piece 1 is set over the cover cap 24 by sandwiching the stud 23 between the divided parts 4 and 5.

If you set the retainer as above,
The string passage holes 7 and 8 of the divided parts 4 and 5 always overlap each other due to the stretching force of the shock absorber 19.

This is because the string member 13 is passed through the string passing holes 7 and 8 in series.

As a result, after the retainer is set, the divided parts 4 and 5 are opened and the upper retaining piece 1 is opened.
This means that it will not come off inadvertently.

Furthermore, since the lower retaining piece 2 is provided and the bolt through hole 10 is provided therein, it can be applied to any type of shock absorber 19, such as when an end bolt is provided at the lower end of the shock absorber 19.

In FIG. 5, the lower latching piece 26 is completely the same as the upper latching piece 1 of the first embodiment.

Then, the string member 27 is inserted into each string passing hole 2 as in the case of FIG. 4 of the first embodiment.
8 to 33 are doubled and passed through.

In addition, the string passing holes 31 and 3 of the lower latch piece 26
2 in series means that the upper latch piece 25
It is similar to

Therefore, the divided portions 34, 3 of the upper retaining piece 25
5 is opened sufficiently to form a ring, the shock absorber 19 is passed through the ring, and the lower latch piece 26 is applied to the eye 22.

Note that if an end bolt is provided at the lower end of the shock absorber 19, the lower retaining piece 26
The divided parts 36 and 37 are opened to form a ring, and the end bolt is passed through there.
The ring portion formed by 6 and 37 constitutes the bolt insertion portion of this invention.

The rest is the same as the first embodiment.

In the third embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the upper retaining piece 38 is divided into two completely separated parts 39 and
The cord openings 41 to 44 are formed at both ends of the divided parts 39 and 40.

The lower retaining piece 45 has a bolt through hole 46 and a string through hole 47, as in the first embodiment.
48 is formed.

On the other hand, the string member 49 passes its one end through the string passing hole 41 from the back side of one of the divided parts 39, and then passes it through the string passing hole 41 from the back side of the other divided part 40.
The string is passed through the string passing hole 43 which is connected in series with the string. After doing this, pass one end of the cord through the string passage hole 41 from the front side of one divided part 39, and
The string is passed through the hole 43 from the back side of the string.

Then, the string passing holes 41 and 42 are further arranged in series.
and string passing holes 48 and 47 of the lower latch piece 45
It is tied with 50 knots through it.

In this third embodiment as well, the setting method is the same as in the first embodiment.

As is clear from the above description, according to the compression retainer of this invention, if the length of the string member is adjusted to the maximum compression length of the shock absorber, it can always be maintained at the maximum compression length.

Furthermore, since the lower locking piece is provided and the end bolt is passed through it, the present invention can also be applied to any case where an eye, an end bolt, etc. are provided at the lower end of the shock absorber.
