Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to stick knitting needles, which are mainly used for handicrafts as a set of multiple needles, and have particularly low bending strength.
Magnetic force, on the other hand, relates to a device that attaches a strong permanent magnet, such as a sintered alloy, to a part that is not subject to external bending or other forces.

(Prior Art) There has been no idea to attach a magnet to a bar knitting needle, especially a permanent magnet with weak bending strength. .

(Problem to be solved by the invention) The rod knitting needle has an outer diameter of about 4 mmφ. If a magnet with low bending strength is attached to the tip of such a thin bar knitting needle where the stitches are formed, the bending force applied from the outside may cause the magnet to break or shatter and lose its magnetic force.
It has the disadvantage of weakening it. Therefore, it is necessary to solve these problems.

(Means for solving the problem) Magnets are attached to the tips of stick knitting needles to improve handicraft work through mutual magnetic attraction between the knitting needles, and to improve blood circulation by applying lines of magnetic force to the worker's body. This structure was already proposed in Utility Application No. 190620/1983.

In the present invention, a knitting needle is constituted by a knitting needle body member whose end surfaces are joined to each other and a knitting needle tip member whose tip is pointed, and a blind hole is provided in the end face of either the knitting needle body member or the knitting needle tip member, A magnet is inserted and attached to the back of the blind hole, a connecting body is provided that fits almost tightly into the blind hole, the end faces of the knitting needle main body member and the knitting needle tip member are joined, and the connecting body is inserted into the blind hole. It is characterized by being substantially joined to a magnet, and is intended to solve the problems mentioned in the previous section.

(Example) Figures 1 and 2 show a first embodiment in which the magnet is inserted and attached from the end face of the knitting needle main body member, and Figures 3 and 4 are the second embodiment in which the magnet is inserted and attached from the end face of the knitting needle tip member. This is an example.

In the first embodiment shown in Figs. 1 and 2, 1 is a knitting needle main body member molded from any one of materials such as synthetic resin, metal, bamboo, etc., and 4 is a knitting needle body member molded from any one of the above-mentioned materials. This is a knitting needle tip member, and has a needle-shaped stitch forming portion 5 at the tip.

Both the knitting needle body member 1 and the knitting needle tip member 5 have a diameter of 4 mm.
A blind hole 3 with a diameter of about 2 mmφ is provided in the approximate center of the end surface 2 of the knitting needle main body member 1, and a magnet 8 made of sintered metal is pushed into the depth of the blind hole 3.
Fix with adhesive.

An end surface 6 opposite to the end surface 2 of the knitting needle tip member 4
A connecting body 7 is provided which tightly fits into the blind hole 3 and has a length that reaches the magnet 8.

In this embodiment, the tethered assembly 7 of the knitting needle tip member 4 is inserted into the blind hole 3, and an adhesive is applied to the end surfaces 2 and 6.

The connecting body 7 may be fixed by inserting an insert into the knitting needle tip member 4 so that a part thereof protrudes from the end surface 6, or by fitting a part of its length into a blind hole 7a provided in the knitting needle tip member 4. I can do it.

In the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, 11 is a knitting needle main body member, and 14 is a knitting needle tip member provided with a stitch forming section 15 that is the same as the stitch forming section 5 of the first embodiment. , outer diameter, etc. are as shown in the first embodiment.

In this embodiment, a blind hole 13 is provided in the end surface 16 of the knitting needle tip member 14, and a magnet 18 made of sintered metal is inserted deep into the blind hole 13 and fixed with adhesive, and the tip is almost in contact with the magnet 18. A small-diameter connecting body 17 protrudes from the end surface of the knitting needle main body member 11, and the end surfaces 12 and 16 are joined, and the blind hole 1 of the connecting body 17 is connected.
3 and fixing with adhesive are the same as in the first embodiment, and even if the knitting needle tip member 14 has the same length as the knitting needle tip member 4 of the first embodiment, the magnet 18
can be attached closer to the tip of the stick knitting needle.

In the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the knitting needle main body member 1,
11 is shown in an embodiment in which the knitting needle tip members 4 and 14 are fitted and supported at only one end, but it is also within the technical scope of the present invention to have a double-headed type in which the knitting needle tip members 4 and 14 are fitted and supported at both ends. It is within.

(Operations and effects of the present invention) The present invention has the structure clarified by the explanation of each of the above embodiments, and even if a magnet with low bending strength is used as the magnet attached to the tip of the bar knitting needle, It can be installed deep into the knitting needle where the bending action exerted on the knitting needle does not reach the knitting needle, and since it does not form a joint that maintains the connection between the knitting needle main body member and the knitting needle tip member, damage may occur even if the bending strength is low. figure,
It has the effect of maintaining the durability of bar knitting needles with built-in magnetic force.
