Description

  The present invention relates to a bundling method for bundling articles and a bundling aid that enables the bundling method by assisting the bundling tool.

Conventionally, for binding tools and binding aids, for example, a technique for binding a binding target object in a cross shape using two binding bands and binding aids has also been disclosed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
JP 2005-27463 A

  However, when a binding object is bound using a binding tool and a binding aid by a conventional binding method, a hole (hereinafter also referred to as a “joining hole”) for binding the binding tool included in the binding aid. Since the binding tool has only a limited restraining force, the binding tool may loosen from the binding object.

  That is, for example, when the object to be bound is bound after passing the binding band through the binding hole of the binding aid, the locking mechanism for locking the band part of the binding band is the other part of the binding band itself. The binding band cannot pass through the binding hole of the binding aid, but the binding band moves around the binding object until the binding mechanism of the binding band reaches the binding hole of the binding aid. Even if the locking mechanism hits the binding hole of the binding aid, it can still rotate in the opposite direction, so depending on the shape of the binding target, As the binding band rotates, the binding band may loosen from the binding object.

  In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a simple and effective bundling method, a bundling device including a bundling tool and a bundling aid that can be used in the bundling method, and a bundling aid that improves the bundling effect of the bundling tool. The purpose is to do.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, a binding method according to the present invention is a binding method for binding objects to be bound using two binding tools and two binding aids, and each of the two binding tools includes: A long locking member and a locking mechanism portion that penetrates the locking member and locks at an arbitrary position, and one of the two binding aids is the two binding tools. A locking coupling hole or a locking coupling groove for locking and coupling to the one binding tool by penetrating the locking member of one binding tool among them and locking at any position, A coupling hole or a coupling groove for penetrating and coupling the locking member of the other binding tool of the two binding tools is provided, and the other of the two binding assisting tools is an engagement of the other binding tool. The stopper is penetrated and locked at an arbitrary position to be locked and coupled to the other binding tool. A coupling hole or a coupling groove, and a coupling hole or a coupling groove for penetrating and coupling the locking member of the one binding tool, and the binding method is related to the first binding aid. A step of passing the locking member of the first binding tool through the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove; and a locking member of the second binding tool in the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the second binding aid A step of locking the first binding aid to the first binding tool, a step of locking the second binding aid to the second binding tool, Passing the locking member of one binding tool through the coupling hole or the coupling groove of the second binding assisting tool, and connecting the locking member of the second binding tool to the coupling hole of the first binding assisting tool or Between the step of passing through the coupling groove, the first binding tool, and the second binding tool. A step of arranging a bundle object, a step of passing the locking member of the first binding tool through the locking mechanism portion of the first binding tool, and a locking member of the second binding tool, The object to be bound in different directions by the step of passing through the locking mechanism portion of the second binding tool, the locking member of the first binding tool, and the locking member of the second binding tool. Tightening the locking member of the first binding tool so that it cannot be inserted and removed from the locking mechanism of the first binding tool, and the locking member of the second binding tool A bundling method including a step of locking the second bundling tool so that it cannot be inserted and removed from the locking mechanism is conceivable. In addition, the said procedure is an example and the order may not be as the said procedure. For example, the step of arranging the binding object may be before the step of passing the locking member of the binding tool through the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding aid. In other words, a procedure that is convenient for binding may be performed. Thus, for example, the binding shown in FIG. 2 can be performed using two binding chains shown in FIG. 1A and two binding aids shown in FIG. 1C. A binding aid shown in FIG. 4C is attached to the binding band shown in a) and (b), and the binding shown in FIG. It becomes possible to carry out. When the binding tool is not a binding chain, the direction of the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove provided in each of the two binding assisting tools and the direction of the coupling hole or the coupling groove are not parallel to each other, The distortion of the locking member is reduced by adjusting the angle of intersection of the binding tools.

  Here, in the present invention, the direction of the hole means the insertion / extraction direction of the locking member with respect to the hole, and the direction of the groove means a portion in the groove when the locking member is held in the groove. The direction which becomes the longitudinal direction of the locking member.

  Further, in the present invention, the binding hole of the binding aid has a function of passing the locking member of the binding tool through the binding hole, and has a locking function for the locking member in the direction of the hole. It is not a hole. Similarly, the binding groove of the binding aid is a groove that has a function of passing the locking member of the binding tool through it and connecting it, but does not have a locking function for the locking member in the direction of the groove. That is.

  In addition, the locking coupling hole of the binding aid in the present invention has a function of passing the locking member of the binding tool through it and coupling it, and has a locking function for the locking member in the direction of the hole. It is a hole that is open. Similarly, the locking coupling groove of the binding aid has a function of connecting the locking member of the binding tool therethrough and has a locking function for the locking member in the direction of the groove. It is a groove.

  In other words, when it is simply referred to as a coupling hole, it is a hole that has a function of passing the locking member of the tying tool through it and connecting it, but does not have a locking function for the locking member in the direction of the hole. In the case of simply calling a coupling groove, it has a function of passing the locking member of the tying member through it and connecting it, but it does not have a locking function for the locking member in the direction of the groove. That is.

  Further, as a binding device used for carrying out this binding method, a binding device comprising a plurality of binding tools for binding articles and a plurality of binding aids, each of the plurality of binding tools is a long And a binding aid locked to and coupled to the other binding tools in the plurality of binding tools penetrating through a coupling hole or a coupling groove provided in the binding aid locked and coupled to the locking member. Each of the plurality of binding aids includes a locking mechanism portion that passes through a locking hole or a coupling groove included in the locking hole and that passes through its locking member and locks at an arbitrary position. A locking coupling hole or engagement for locking and coupling to the at least one binding tool by penetrating the locking member of at least any one of the binding tools and locking at any position. Stop coupling groove and the locking coupling hole or the locking A bundling device comprising a coupling hole or a coupling groove for penetrating and coupling a locking member of a bundling tool in the plurality of bundling tools other than a bundling tool locked and coupled by a mating groove is conceivable. . Further, when the binding tool is not a binding chain, the direction of the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove provided in each of the plurality of binding auxiliary tools and the direction of the coupling hole or the coupling groove are not parallel to each other, The distortion of the locking member is reduced by adjusting the angle of intersection of the binding tools.

In addition, the above-described binding method performed using two binding tools and two binding aids can be performed using two identical binding tools and two identical binding aids. It is possible to use two binding tools and two different binding aids, or two different binding tools and two identical binding aids. It is also possible to use two binding tools and two binding aids having different shapes.
That is, the second binding tool is locked in the coupling hole or the coupling groove of the first binding aid by locking and coupling the locking member of the first binding tool by the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove. It is possible to penetrate the member, and in the coupling hole or the coupling groove of the second binding aid, the locking member of the second binding tool is locked and coupled by the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove. As long as it is possible to penetrate the locking member of the first binding tool, the binding aid having the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove and the coupling hole or the coupling groove is formed into the locking coupling hole or the locking mechanism. Use two binding tools that are locked and connected by the connecting groove, and connect them so that they cross three-dimensionally at the binding hole or the connecting groove part of the binding aid that is locked and connected to the other binding tool. Thus, it is possible to perform a bundling method for bundling a bundling object.

  For example, if the shapes of the coupling hole 122 in FIG. 1C and the coupling hole 212 in FIG. 3B are adjusted, the binding tool 1 in FIG. 1A, the binding tool 2 in FIG. The binding method shown in FIGS. 2 and 5 can be implemented using the binding aid 120 of FIG. 3C and the binding aid 210 of FIG. 3B.

  As shown in FIG. 2, each binding unit is formed by using two binding tools and two binding aids and coupling the binding aids in the locking coupling holes or the locking coupling grooves of the respective binding aids. The locking member of the tool is passed through the binding hole or the coupling groove of the binding aid that is coupled to the partner binding tool, and the two binding tools are coupled at the two intersections, so that the coupling hole or the coupling groove Even if there is no locking function in the direction of the hole or the direction of the groove with respect to the locking member, each binding tool is suppressed in mobility by the binding hole or the coupling groove of the binding aid that is coupled to the other binding tool, It becomes difficult to shift with respect to the binding object.

  In this binding method, the binding members in which the locking members of the respective binding tools are locked and coupled to the mating binding tool inside and outside the coupling hole or coupling groove of the binding assisting tool that is latched and coupled to the mating binding tool. When there is almost no distortion due to the binding, each binding tool receives almost no control in the direction of the hole or groove from the binding hole or groove of the binding aid locked and joined to the other binding tool. It is possible to freely tighten and bind to an object, and even if one of the binding tools is tightened, the other binding tool is connected to the other by the binding hole or the coupling groove of the binding assisting device. Therefore, it is possible to bind the binding object with almost no influence on the partner's binding tool. That is, it is possible to bind from a large binding object to a small binding object by using the same binding tool and binding aid, and it is easy to retighten the binding tool when the binding is loosened with respect to the binding object. However, after binding, when one binding tool rotates around the binding object, the binding hole or coupling groove of the binding aid connected to the binding tool rotated by the locking coupling hole or locking coupling groove It is necessary to rotate around the binding object, and the other binding tool must slide relative to the binding object. In addition, when one binding tool slides with respect to the binding object, the binding coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding auxiliary tool connected to the binding tool that slides through the coupling hole or the coupling groove is included in the binding target object. The other binding tool must rotate around the object to be bound. In other words, when this binding method is used, only one binding tool cannot be rotated or slid with respect to the binding object, and each of the two binding tools can be simultaneously applied to the binding object. As long as no rotation or slide occurs, the binding tool will not be displaced with respect to the binding object. That is, this bundling method is a bundling method that is difficult to shift because only one bundling tool cannot rotate or slide with respect to the bundling object.

  In addition, when the above-described binding method is performed using two identical binding tools and two identical binding aids, symmetrical binding is possible, and each binding tool passes through its own locking mechanism. By simply pulling the locking members in opposite directions, the object to be bound can be easily tightened.

  Each of the plurality of binding tools is a binding band, and the locking member is a band portion of the binding band, and the band portion is locked to the locking mechanism portion in the longitudinal direction. The locking mechanism portion has a through-hole having a convex portion inside a hole that allows the uneven portion to penetrate only in one direction, and the band portion is formed by the through-hole. The locking coupling hole of each of the plurality of binding aids can be penetrated only in one direction through the uneven portion of the band portion by the same structure as the binding mechanism portion of the binding band. It is good also as having the convex part which carries out in the inside of a hole, and latching the said uneven | corrugated | grooved part in arbitrary positions. Thus, if the binding tool is a binding band, and the binding aid has a locking hole having the structure of the binding mechanism of the binding hole and the binding band, two of each are used. Thus, the bundling configuration shown in FIG. 5 can be implemented. Further, in the binding tool other than the binding band, the relationship between the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding assisting tool and the binding tool is such that the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding assisting tool is The locking member may have a structure similar to that of the binding mechanism of the binding tool so that the locking member can be penetrated only in one direction and locked.

  Further, in each of the plurality of binding aids, it is assumed that the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove provided therein and the coupling hole or the coupling groove provided therein vertically intersect each other at a twisted position. Also good. Thus, for example, the binding form shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 5 using the binding aids in the form of FIG. 3 (b), FIG. 3 (c), FIG. Thus, it is possible to carry out such that they are perpendicular to each other at a twisted position.

  Further, the portion having the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove and the portion having the coupling hole or the coupling groove of at least one of the plurality of binding assisting tools can be rotated by a shaft. The direction of the coupling hole or the coupling groove relative to the direction of the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove may be changeable. Thereby, for example, it is possible to effectively implement the bundling form shown in FIG. 2 or 5 by using the bundling assisting tool of the form such as FIG.

In addition, as a binding aid used for carrying out this binding method, a binding aid that joins and assists a binding tool for binding a binding object, the binding tool is a long-shaped locking tool. And a locking mechanism portion that penetrates the locking member and locks at an arbitrary position, and the binding aid penetrates the locking member of the binding tool and engages at an arbitrary position. By locking, the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove for locking and coupling to the binding tool and the locking member of the binding tool or the locking member of another binding tool are penetrated and coupled. A binding aid having a plurality of coupling holes or coupling grooves is conceivable. Specifically, for example, forms such as FIG. 1 (b) to FIG. 1 (d), FIG. 3 (b) to FIG. 3 (d), FIG.
Further, the binding aid of the present invention is a member provided with a locking coupling hole or a locking coupling groove for coupling a locking member of one or a plurality of binding tools, and a coupling hole or a coupling groove. Is an independent member and can be locked and coupled to the locking member by the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding aid, but is not originally integrated with the locking member .

  The locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding aid may be configured to lock the locking member with the same structure as the locking mechanism portion of the binding tool. As a result, if the engaging member of the binding device has an uneven portion or hole that engages with the protrusion or the protrusion of the locking mechanism portion, the binding aid accurately engages with the engaging member of the binding device. It can be stopped.

  In addition, the binding tool is a binding band, the locking member is a band portion of the binding band, and the band portion has an uneven portion for locking to the locking mechanism portion in the longitudinal direction. The locking mechanism portion has a through hole having a convex portion inside the hole that allows the uneven portion to penetrate only in one direction, and locks the band portion by the through hole. The locking coupling hole of the binding aid has a convex portion inside the hole that allows the concave / convex portion of the band portion to penetrate only in one direction, and locks the concave / convex portion at an arbitrary position. It is good. Further, the locking coupling hole of the binding aid may lock the band portion with the same structure as the binding mechanism portion of the binding band. Thereby, manufacture of a binding aid becomes easy. That is, the relationship between the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding aid and the binding tool is such that the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding aid is the same as the locking mechanism portion of the binding tool. With the same structure, the locking member may be allowed to penetrate only in one direction and locked. Thereby, for example, a binding aid of the form of FIG. 4C in which the binding tool is a binding band and the locking coupling hole has a structure of a locking mechanism portion of the binding band is conceivable.

  Further, the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding aid and the coupling hole or the coupling groove of the binding aid may intersect each other at a twisted position. Thereby, for example, if the binding tool is a binding band, the binding assisting tool in the form of FIG. 4C in which the locking coupling hole and the coupling hole of the binding assisting tool perpendicularly intersect each other at a twisted position. Can be considered.

  In addition, the portion having the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding aid and the portion having the coupling hole or the coupling groove of the binding aid can be rotated by a shaft, and the locking coupling It may be possible to change the direction of the coupling hole or the coupling groove relative to the direction of the hole or the locking coupling groove. Thereby, for example, if the binding tool is a binding band, a binding aid having a form as shown in FIG.

  The binding aid may have a plurality of the locking coupling holes or the locking coupling grooves. Thus, if a binding aid is used, a plurality of closed annular portions are produced with one binding tool, and a plurality of binding objects are bound and connected, or one binding object is not loosened over and over. It becomes possible to unite. The binding aid may have a plurality of the coupling holes or the coupling grooves.

  Further, the binding aid may have a plurality of the locking coupling holes or the locking coupling grooves, and the locking member of the binding tool may be penetrated only in one direction and locked. Thereby, for example, when the binding tool is a binding band and the binding aid has a structure similar to that of the binding mechanism of the binding band, the binding tool is a binding band, and the locking member is The band part is a band part of the binding band, and the band part is formed with an uneven part to be locked to the locking mechanism part in the longitudinal direction, and the locking mechanism part has the uneven part in one direction. A through hole having a convex portion inside the hole, the band portion being locked by the through hole, and the binding aid having a plurality of locking coupling holes, The locking coupling hole has a convex portion inside the hole that has a structure similar to the locking mechanism portion of the binding band and allows the concave and convex portion of the band portion to penetrate only in one direction. May be locked at an arbitrary position.

  The locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove of the binding aid and the coupling hole or the coupling groove of the binding aid may not be parallel to each other. Thereby, for example, a binding aid in the form of FIG. 1 (c), FIG. 1 (d), FIG. 3 (b), FIG. 3 (c), FIG.

  INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention can provide an effective binding method using a binding aid that is inexpensive and easy to mount, improves the fastening force of the binding tool, and a binding device that includes the binding tool and the binding aid.

FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of a binding tool and a binding aid that can be attached to the binding tool, and a state in which the binding aid is attached to the binding tool. FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a method of binding in a cross shape using two binding tools and two binding aids. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a binding tool and a binding aid other than the binding tool and the binding aid shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 4 is a schematic view showing an example of a binding band and a binding aid that can be used for the binding band. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a method of binding in a cross shape using two binding bands and two binding aids.

  Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of a binding aid and a binding tool according to the present invention. A binding tool 1 shown in FIG. 1A is a binding chain that binds articles using a chain. FIGS. 1B to 1D are views showing a binding aid that is attached to the binding tool 1 and assists in binding. FIG. 1 (e) is a view in which the binding aid of FIG. 1 (c) is attached to the binding tool 1.

  The binding tool 1 shown in FIG. 1 (a) is for opening and closing an opening / closing ring 1a, which is a locking mechanism part for locking the locked part of the binding tool 1, and the locked part. It comprises a closing ring 1b and a chain portion that is a locked portion that is locked by the locking mechanism. That is, the chain part which is a to-be-latched part is a locking member.

  As shown in the figure, the opening / closing ring 1a has a sliding type opening / closing function. Moreover, the opening / closing part is normally closed by the force of a spring. When the chain is locked, the opening / closing part is opened, and the opening / closing ring 1a is passed through one of the annular members constituting the chain. The opening / closing part can be automatically closed by the force of the spring.

  FIG. 1B shows a binding aid 110 that can be attached to the binding tool 1. The binding assisting tool 110 has an openable and closable opening / closing ring for forming a locking coupling hole 111 for attaching to the binding tool 1 and a coupling hole 112 for coupling a locked portion. The locking coupling hole 111 and the coupling hole 112 are formed in the same plane.

  FIG. 1C shows a binding aid 120 that can be attached to the binding tool 1. The binding aid 120 has an openable / closable ring that forms a locking coupling hole 121 for attaching to the binding tool 1, and a coupling hole 122 for coupling a locked portion. Moreover, the latching coupling hole 121 and the coupling hole 122 are not formed in the same plane, but are formed in intersecting planes.

  FIG. 1 (d) shows a binding aid 130 that can be attached to the binding tool 1. The binding assisting tool 130 has an openable / closable opening / closing ring for forming a locking coupling hole 131 for attaching to the binding tool 1 and a closing ring for forming a coupling hole 132 for coupling the locked part. . Further, the opening / closing ring and the closing ring are connected by a hole portion.

  FIG. 1 (e) shows a state in which the binding aid 120 is attached to the binding tool 1. In the figure, the binding aid 120 is attached to the annular member adjacent to the closing ring 1b. However, the mounting position can be freely determined and changed. In other words, it may be attached at an optimal position.

  Moreover, the closing ring 1b may be an opening / closing ring that can be opened and closed. If it is an opening / closing ring, it is possible to remove or replace the locking mechanism portion from the chain portion which is the locked portion, which is convenient.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a method of binding using the binding tool shown in FIG. 1A and the binding aid shown in FIG. In addition, unlike FIG.1 (e), for the convenience of illustration, the binding aid is attached to the closing ring 1b. The chain portion which is the locked portion of the binding tool B passes through the binding hole of the binding aid that is locked and connected to the binding tool A, and the binding aid that is locked and connected to the binding tool B is coupled. A chain portion that is a locked portion of the binding tool A passes through the hole. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, it is also possible to attach the binding aid to a part other than the locking member of the binding tool and use it in this binding method.

  As shown in FIG. 2, it is possible to bind the articles so as to be tightened from the front, rear, left, and right by using two binding chains. By using the binding aid, it is possible to use a binding tool that does not originally have a coupling hole, and cross and bind at two locations. Further, both the binding tools are coupled to the mating binding tool at the two intersections by the coupling holes of the binding aids attached to each other. The angle at which the three-dimensional intersection between the direction of the locking coupling hole of the binding aid 120 and the direction of the coupling hole may be vertical or any other angle. It may be determined in consideration of the shape of the binding object. As a result of binding of each binding tool, if the plane formed by the formed annular portion is to be orthogonal, the angle of the three-dimensional intersection between the direction of the locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove and the direction of the coupling hole or the coupling groove is set. By making it vertical, the resistance between the coupling hole and the locking member passed through the coupling hole is reduced, and it becomes easy to bind.

  In addition, such a method of binding using two long binding tools and two binding aids can be realized using a binding tool other than the binding chain. For example, it can be realized using a binding belt or a binding band shown in FIGS. Of course, if the shape of the coupling hole or the coupling groove is adjusted, binding is performed as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5 using different types of binding tools such as a binding chain and a binding belt and a binding belt and a binding band. It is possible.

  Moreover, the binding aid may be incorporated in advance in the long binding tool. That is, even if two binding tools each originally having a coupling hole and a coupling groove are used, the crossing portion formed by the two binding tools shown in FIG. 2 is coupled by the respective coupling holes and coupling grooves. Can be realized. Of course, even if one is a long binding tool originally having a coupling hole or a coupling groove and the other is a long binding tool equipped with a binding aid having a coupling hole or a coupling groove, it is shown in FIG. It is possible to realize a binding in which the intersecting portions by the two binding tools are coupled by the coupling holes and the coupling grooves attached to each other.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a binding tool and a binding aid other than the binding tool and the binding aid shown in FIG. 1.

  FIG. 3A is a diagram showing an outline of the structure of a binding belt that can be used as a binding tool. The binding belt uses a belt as a locked portion that is locked by the locking mechanism. That is, a binding tool using a belt as a locking member.

  As shown in FIG. 3A, the binding belt 2 has a plurality of holes 207a and a locking portion 207b that is a portion for locking the belt portion including the holes 207a by being inserted into the holes 207a. That is, it is the same structure as the belt used for clothes. Further, the buckle portion provided with the locking portion 207 b is a locking mechanism portion in the binding belt 2.

  FIGS. 3B to 3D are diagrams showing examples of binding aids that can be used for the binding belt 2.

  As shown in FIG. 3 (b), the binding aid 210 joins the locking and coupling groove 213, which is a groove for locking and binding the binding belt 2, and the binding belt 2 itself or the belt portion of another binding belt. For example, a coupling hole 212 is provided. Further, the binding aid 210 has a screw hole 218a extending from the lower surface to the locking coupling groove 213 in FIG. The screw hole 218a has a screw groove and a screw thread corresponding to the screw thread and the screw groove of the screw 218b. However, in FIG. 3B, the screw groove and the screw thread are omitted for convenience of illustration. Yes. The screw 218b is screwed into the screw hole 218a from the lower surface of the binding aid 210, and is then inserted into the hole 207a of the belt portion passed through the locking coupling groove 213, thereby locking the belt portion to the binding aid. .

  As shown in FIG. 3 (c), the binding assisting tool 220 couples the locking coupling hole 221, which is a hole for locking and coupling the binding belt 2, and the binding belt 2 itself or the belt portion of another binding belt. For example, a coupling hole 222 is provided. Further, the binding aid 220 has a screw hole 228a from the lower surface to the locking coupling hole 221 in FIG. The screw hole 228a has a screw groove and a screw thread corresponding to the screw thread and the screw groove of the screw 228b. However, in FIG. 3C, the screw groove and the screw thread are omitted for convenience of illustration. Yes. The screw 228b is screwed into the screw hole 228a from the lower surface of the binding aid 220, and is then inserted into the hole 207a of the belt portion that is passed through the locking coupling hole 221, thereby locking the belt portion to the binding aid. .

  As shown in FIG. 3 (d), the binding assisting tool 230 connects the locking coupling screw 238b and the screw hole 238a for locking and coupling the binding belt 2 with the belt portion of the binding belt 2 itself or another binding belt. It has the coupling hole 232 which is a hole for carrying out. Further, the screw hole 238a of the binding aid 230 is a hole that does not reach the coupling hole 232 from the lower surface in FIG. The screw hole 238a has a screw groove and a screw thread corresponding to the screw thread and the screw groove of the locking coupling screw 238b. However, in FIG. Omitted. The locking coupling screw 238b is inserted into the hole 207a of the belt portion and then screwed into the screw hole 238a from the lower surface of the binding aid 230, thereby locking the belt portion to the binding aid. In the case of the binding aid 230, a locking coupling groove is formed between the lower surface having the screw hole 238a and the upper surface of the disk of the locking coupling screw 238b.

  In addition, the longitudinal direction of the belt at the intersection of the belt when the locking coupling groove 213 and the coupling hole 212 of the binding aid 210 in FIG. 3B hold the belt is the position of twist, and the screw hole 218a. When viewed from the direction, the directions are orthogonal, but there is no restriction on the relationship between the directions. For example, it may be oblique when viewed from the direction of the screw hole 218a. However, it is desirable that the bundling method shown in FIG. 2 is not parallel to each other. That is, when they are parallel to each other, a strong distortion occurs in the locked portion. The same applies to the directions of the locking coupling hole 221 and the coupling hole 222 of the binding aid 220 in FIG.

  Moreover, the way of tying things as shown in FIG. 2 can also be achieved by using a binding band. That is, it is possible to attach the binding aids having the coupling holes through which the band portions of other binding bands can pass to the two binding bands, respectively, and bind them as shown in FIG.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a binding band and a binding aid that can be used for the binding band.

  FIG. 4A is a diagram showing the front of the binding band 3, and FIG. 4B is a diagram showing the top surface of the binding band 3. The binding band 3 includes a band portion having a plurality of locked uneven portions for locking to the locking mechanism portion in the longitudinal direction, and a locking mechanism portion for locking the locked uneven portions. It is configured. The locking mechanism part has a through hole with a convex part inside the hole that allows the uneven part of the band part to penetrate only in one direction, and the band part can be locked by the convex part of the through hole. It is. In the binding band 3, the band portion serves as a locking member.

  FIG. 4C to FIG. 4N are schematic views showing a binding aid that can be attached to the binding band 3. Moreover, the binding aid shown in FIG. 4C to FIG. 4N can penetrate the concave and convex portions of the band portion of the binding band 3 only in one direction, similarly to the locking mechanism portion of the binding band 3. It is possible to have a locking coupling hole having a convex portion inside the hole, and to lock the uneven portion of the band portion by the locking coupling hole.

  FIG. 4C is a diagram showing a binding aid 310 having a locking coupling hole 311 having a locking function inside and a coupling hole 312 having no locking function inside. In the figure, a dotted line indicates a locking coupling hole, and a convex portion that can penetrate the concave and convex portion of the band portion only in one direction exists inside the hole. In the figure, it is possible to insert with the concave and convex portions of the band portion of the binding band 3 facing down only in the direction from the right to the left of the locking coupling hole 311. However, the insertion from the left to the right is impossible, and the structure cannot be moved in the reverse direction after the insertion from the right to the left. That is, the structure cannot be removed after insertion. Further, the directions of the locking coupling hole 311 and the coupling hole 312 are configured to intersect perpendicularly at the twisted positions.

  FIG. 4D is a view showing the binding aid 320 having the locking coupling hole 321a and the locking coupling hole 321b. The direction of the locking coupling hole 321a and the locking coupling hole 321b is configured to intersect perpendicularly at a twisted position.

  4 (e) to 4 (m) are diagrams showing variations of the binding aid having two locking coupling holes having different directions and angles.

  FIG. 4 (n) is a diagram showing a binding aid having a locking joint hole and a joint hole. The shaft 900 can be rotated with respect to the shaft 900 and can be changed in direction. ing. Further, the mutual directions of the locking coupling holes in FIGS. 4D to 4M can be changed in the same manner by the shaft.

  FIG. 4 (o) is a view in which the binding aid 310 shown in FIG. 4 (c) is attached to the binding band 3 shown in FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b). The band portion of the binding band 3 is inserted into the locking coupling hole 311 of the binding aid 310, and the binding aid 310 is placed in the direction of the arrow in the vicinity of the locking mechanism portion of the binding band 3 as shown in FIG. , The binding aid 310 is fixed to the binding band 3 because it cannot slide in the direction opposite to the arrow.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a state in which the same binding as the binding method illustrated in FIG. 2 is performed using two sets of the binding bands 3 to which the binding assisting tool 310 illustrated in FIG.

  When the binding method shown in FIG. 5 is performed using the binding band 3 and the binding aid 310 in the state shown in FIG. 4 (o), each of the two binding aids has a locking function. Both the stop coupling hole and the coupling hole having no locking function are provided. Since there is no locking effect in the direction of the coupling hole, distortion in the longitudinal direction of the other binding band 3 is less likely to occur in the annular portion formed by each binding band 3 with respect to the binding object, and more easily Effective binding is possible.

  In other words, regardless of the size of the binding object, the annular portion of each binding band is connected to the binding hole portion of the binding aid locked and connected to the binding band. Bundling is possible without being affected by the direction, there is little distortion, and even if the other binding band is cut, there is an effect that the ring-shaped binding remaining without being cut is difficult to loosen.

  In addition, when the binding band 3 and the binding assisting tool 310 are bound as shown in FIG. 4 (o) as shown in FIG. 5, the hole is located above the upper left binding assisting tool 310. The coupling hole 312 and the coupling hole 312, which is a hole located below the binding aid 310 at the lower right, pass through each coupling hole 312 because there is no protrusion having a locking function inside the hole. No locking force acts on the band portion of the binding band in the direction of the hole of the coupling hole 312. Therefore, if distortion due to the shape or hardness of the binding object does not occur in each binding band, the annular portion of each binding band will be One plane can continue to be formed.

  That is, when the binding band 3 and the binding assisting tool 310 in the state shown in FIG. 4 (o) are used to perform the cross-binding binding at two opposing positions shown in FIG. Since the directions of the respective coupling holes 312 of the opposing binding aids 310 that are fixedly coupled intersect each other at the twisted position, only one binding band 3 rotates or slides around the binding object. There will be no binding and it will be very hard to slip. Furthermore, it is possible to easily bind even extremely small ones by simply pulling the vicinity of the end of the band portion of each binding band 3 penetrating through the locking mechanism portion included in the strap. That is, the closed annular portion formed by each binding band 3 can theoretically be reduced to almost zero. In addition, since the band portion of the mating binding band 3 can be inserted into the coupling hole 312 from either side, even if the direction of tightening one binding band 3 is reversed, cross coupling is performed at two opposing positions. It is possible to carry out binding.

  However, there are convex portions having a locking function in both of the holes in the upper left binding aid shown in FIG. 5, or there are convex portions having a locking function in both of the holes in the lower right binding aid. When present, for example, when at least one of the binding aids is the binding aid shown in FIG. 4 (d), the binding force between the binding bands is such that each of the binding aids is related to the band portion. FIG. 4 (c) shows a case where both a locking coupling hole having a convex portion with a locking function and a coupling hole without a locking function are provided. Compared to the case where it is a binding aid, it has the effect of becoming stronger. On the other hand, once the band part slides in the locking coupling hole due to some elasticity, the coupling hole has no locking function. Unlike the case of, the reverse band cannot be slid, and the binding band is distorted in the annular part. It comes out is a possibility that may occur.

  For example, the upper coupling hole 312 of the upper left binding assisting tool 310 is a locking coupling hole having a convex portion having a locking function with respect to the unevenness of the band portion inside the upper left binding assisting tool. When the tool is the binding aid shown in FIG. 4D, the upper left binding aid is once slid to the locking mechanism portion side of the binding band with the locking mechanism portion drawn in the lower right ( In FIG. 5, the locking mechanism portion is drawn on the lower right side by the convex portion having the locking function of the upper locking coupling hole of the upper left binding aid. The undulating portion of the band part of the binding band is locked, and the upper left binding aid is slid to the locking mechanism part side of the binding band drawn in the lower right (in FIG. 5, Counterclockwise direction). Thereby, the band portion of the binding band in which the locking mechanism portion is drawn on the upper left side is pulled and distorted by the upper left binding aid. This distortion is difficult to correct, and when the binding band with the locking mechanism drawn in the lower right is cut off, the binding band with the locking mechanism drawn in the upper left is loosened from the binding object. End up. Of course, the same is true even if the lower coupling hole 312 of the binding aid 310 on the lower right side is a locking coupling hole having a convex portion having a locking function with respect to the irregularities of the band portion inside the hole. I can say that.

  In addition, when the two holes or grooves of the binding aid are both locking coupling holes or locking coupling grooves, one locking coupling hole or locking coupling groove is locked and coupled to the locking member of the binding tool. After that, the locking member is inserted into the remaining other locking coupling hole or locking coupling groove. In this case, the other locking coupling hole or locking coupling groove is inserted into the other locking coupling hole or locking coupling groove. There is a major disadvantage that there is a restriction on the insertion direction. Therefore, binding must be performed in consideration of the insertion direction of the locking member with respect to the other locking coupling hole or the locking coupling groove.

  However, when one of the two holes or grooves of the binding aid is a locking coupling hole or a locking coupling groove and the other is a coupling hole or a coupling groove, one locking coupling hole or a locking coupling groove After engaging the locking member with the locking member of the binding tool, the locking member is inserted into the remaining other coupling hole or coupling groove. There is a great merit that there is no restriction on the insertion direction of the stop member. Therefore, it is possible to perform binding without considering the insertion direction of the locking member with respect to the other coupling hole or coupling groove.

  Further, in FIG. 4C, the directions of the locking coupling hole 311 and the coupling hole 312 are configured to intersect perpendicularly at the twisted position, but are perpendicular to each other at the twisted position. It does not have to be in the direction of crossing. For example, they may be parallel to each other or oblique. What is necessary is just to produce according to the crossing direction of the band part in a use condition. Similarly in FIGS. 4D to 4M, the direction of the engagement coupling holes is not limited. For example, they may be parallel to each other, diagonal, or perpendicularly intersecting at the position of twist. What is necessary is just to produce according to the crossing direction of the band part in a use condition. In addition, when binding objects to be bound by cross-linking the binding tools, the distortion of the crossing site may be a big problem depending on the material of the locking member, so the directions of the holes are not parallel to each other, but cross at the twist position. It is possible to perform more effective binding.

  In addition, the binding aid shown in FIG. 4 (n) is configured such that the portion having the locking coupling hole and the portion having the coupling hole can be rotated by the shaft 900, so that the locking coupling hole and the coupling hole are mutually connected. Although the angle can be changed variously, when the binding shown in FIG. 5 is performed using the binding aid shown in FIG. 4 (n), the angle of the intersection of the binding bands is the situation at the time of binding. It can be at various angles to suit. As a result, distortion is less likely to occur at the intersection between the binding bands, and a stable binding can be obtained.

  For example, in the binding aid 310 of FIG. 4C, the locking coupling hole 311 and the coupling hole 312 are three-dimensionally intersecting vertically, and the binding bands are intersected at an angle close to perpendicular to each other. When binding objects, there is no problem because the binding bands do not distort at the intersection, but when binding objects to be bound so that they intersect at an angle clearly different from the vertical, the binding bands It is considered that distortion becomes a problem at the intersection of the two, and the binding aid that can change the angle of the locking coupling hole and the coupling hole with each other is considered to be very useful.

  Further, when considering the process of binding with the binding band, even if the angle of the solid crossing between the locking coupling hole and the coupling hole provided in the binding aid is unchanged, the angle of the solid crossing between the locking coupling hole and the coupling hole is constant. If the binding bands can cross each other at the same angle as shown in Fig. 5 and can be bound as shown in Fig. 5, the band part can be quickly slid in the direction of the coupling hole, and each binding band can be easily bound. It can be fastened to objects.

  However, depending on the shape and properties of the binding object, in the process from the start of tightening of the binding band to the end of tightening, it may be easier to bind when the angle of the three-dimensional intersection between the locking coupling hole and the coupling hole is changed.

  To explain in an easy-to-understand manner, when binding objects are bound using two binding bands so that the binding bands intersect at two locations, in other words, in FIG. 5, both binding aids are removed. When binding an object to be bound with two binding bands, depending on the shape and properties of the binding object, the angle at which the binding bands intersect is not constant as each binding band is tightened. Sometimes. For example, when each of the binding bands is made smaller by closing the closed annular portion that can be bound, the binding force on the binding object is the weakest, that is, the binding band itself has the weakest tension. Try to position the object to be bound. As a result, in the process of binding the objects to be bound in such a manner that the two binding bands are used to cross each other at two locations, the angles at which they cross each other may change. Therefore, even when binding as shown in FIG. 5 using two binding bands and two binding aids, the crossing angle between the direction of the locking coupling hole and the direction of the coupling hole of the binding aid is variable. If the binding band itself is less distorted in the binding assisting tool during the binding process, less force is required to bind the binding band.

  Specifically, using the two binding aids shown in FIG. 4 (n) and the two binding bands 3 shown in FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b), the above-described binding method as shown in FIG. The portion having the locking coupling hole and the portion having the coupling hole of the binding aid can be rotated by the shaft 900, and as the binding band is tightened, according to the shape and properties of the binding object, Because the angle of the intersection of the binding bands can be freely changed to an angle with less distortion of the binding band itself, the binding objects can be easily bound so that the binding bands intersect at two locations. Due to the structural characteristics of the binding aid, each binding band is a single unit, and does not rotate or slide around the binding object, so that it is possible to realize binding that is easy to loosen.

  Thus, the present invention provides a binding aid for improving the fastening force of a binding tool, which is inexpensive and easy to install, and a binding method having a strong fastening force by a binding tool using the binding aid. Can do.

  The binding aid and the binding method for assisting the binding tool of the present invention can improve the binding force of the binding tool on the binding object. Therefore, it is useful as a binding aid for a binding tool and a binding method. Further, the binding aid of the present invention has a simple structure, can be produced at low cost, and is easy to handle. Therefore, it is useful as a binding aid and a binding method for improving the fastening force of the binding tool to the binding object.
