Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Technical field] The present invention relates to a plastic fixture for attaching a handle to a tea server, coffee server, or similar beverage container having a glass container body. .

[Prior art]

Conventional fittings of this type are generally made of metal, which not only makes it difficult to fit into the container, but is also expensive.

[Problem we are trying to solve]

It is conceivable to make the band that wraps around the container out of plastic instead of the conventional metal, but it would be necessary to devise a structure for fixing it to the handle. If the band were to be fitted to the handle in this condition, it would be extremely difficult to mold the fitting tube part due to the loop-like shape of the band. Or, special measures are required for the molding die.

〔composition〕

In view of the above-mentioned requirements, the present invention provides a band portion with an arcuate portion at both ends, and a bent portion with a fitting cylinder portion at the tip of the arcuate portion so that both fitting cylinder portions are parallel to each other. It is characterized in that it has a structure that allows it to be set in an expanded state and easily removed from the mold, and the embodiment illustrated in the accompanying drawings will be described in detail below.

The handle attachment of the present invention can be applied, for example, as shown in Figs. A beverage pouring container or beverage storage container, such as a tea server, which is tightened and fixed to the portion with screws 5 is adopted.

As a special structure of the handle attachment of the present invention for the above-mentioned tea server etc., in addition to providing hook-shaped square plate-shaped bent portions 6, 6 facing each other at both ends of the band 3, the ends of the bent portions 6, 6 The fitting tube portions 7 and 8 are made of plastic such as polypropylene and are individually protruded inward so that the fitting tube portions 7 and 8 can be fitted to each other, and the base end portion of the handle 4 is connected to the fitting tube portions 7 and 8. 9 is provided with an engagement hole 10 adapted to fit the fitting cylinder portion of the band 3 and a fitting counterbore 11 of the bent portion 6. For attachment, the band 3 is fitted into the neck 2 of the container body 1. In the wrapped state, both ends are inserted so that the fitting cylinder parts 7 and 8 fit into each other in the engagement hole 10 of the handle 4, and the bent parts 6 and 6 are used to insert the proximal end part 9 of the handle 4. Tighten and fix with the screws 5 while holding them.

When the band 3 is molded from plastic, it can be molded into a loop shape as shown in FIG. Moreover, it is extremely difficult to manufacture a molding die that is suitable for demolding these parts after molding. Therefore, in the present invention, as shown in FIG.
Regarding the main part of
and arcuate parts 3 corresponding to the radius of curvature of the neck 2 and corresponding to a little less than 1/4 of the circumference of the neck 2 at both ends.
b, 3b, and the bent portions 6, 6 are arranged on the same plane, and the fitting cylinder portions 7, 8 are formed in an arcuate shape with their axes parallel to each other. When demolding the mold, it is sufficient to separate the fitting cylinder parts 7 and 8 in the axial direction, and as for the fitting cylinder parts 7 and 8, as shown in FIG. The bands may be engaged with the engagement holes 10 in the handle 4 from both sides without fitting into each other, and the center portion of the band 3 may be formed not in a straight line but in an arc shape, as shown in FIG. In short, it is sufficient that the fitting cylinder portions 7 and 8 are in a parallel relationship separated from each other.

In addition to the above, it is preferable to extend the lower end of the handle 4 and mold an annular coaster 12 thereon with the handle 4 from plastic such as polypropylene. Regarding the distance between the coaster 12 and the handle, the radius of curvature of the handle portion is made smaller in advance so that it is molded into a narrowed state that is closer than when attached to the container body 1, and then assembled while expanding to ensure secure attachment. It is desirable to do so. In addition, it is appropriate to provide a headed projection 13 on the top of the handle 4 for winding the thread in the tie bag, and cover 14 for hiding both ends of the screw 5 in the recess on the outside of the cylindrical portions 7 and 8. It is best to press fit.

〔effect〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, the band portion is formed in an expanded state so that the fitting cylinder portions, which are in the same axial relationship when in use, are parallel to each other during molding, thereby significantly simplifying the molding die. Not only can it be manufactured inexpensively, but the operation during molding is simple, so the fixture itself can be manufactured efficiently and inexpensively, and it can be wrapped with an elastic plastic band, fitted, and tightened with screws. By installing the
It can be attached accurately and firmly to the glass container while remaining elastically in close contact with the glass container.
