Description

  The present invention relates to a joint using a stable fixing property of a belt (band) used in various applications, and relates to a joint named as a belt clip for convenience and its product.

  When it is said to be a belt, most people associate it with a belt that tightens the waist for trousers. Thus, the main uses of the belt are fixation, connection and support. If you look for other belt parts around you, there are hanging parts for bags and backpacks, hand-held parts, shoulder parts, fastening parts for clothes and bags, and decorative parts. Further, since the belt is a belt, if the thin cloth wrapped around and the thin cloth sewn are interpreted as synonymous, it can be said that the pocket belongs to the belt (band) in a broad sense, so in the present invention, the pocket portion is included in the belt (band). I will do it.

  As described above, the interpretation of a belt (band) in the present invention is so broad that most people wear it. And most belts (bands) are fixed with a stable force, and their positions are also stable as estimated from the usage situation. The present invention has been found as a result of finding a new possibility of a belt (band), and using a joint that can be freely and stably removed, effectively increasing its added value, and searching for various uses. It is a thing.

  At present, there is nothing according to the present invention. If the present invention is announced, the market will react greatly, and many products will be available by applying conventional technology.

  Here, a product on the market will be described based on a concept close to the present invention. First, there is a keychain that uses the belt hole of the pants. This is based on a similar idea and there are various types. Belt holes have the advantage of easy mounting of metal fittings, but their strength is low and they are not stable, and there are many restrictions on location, size, and usage conditions. In addition, there is an accessory case such as a pochette that is worn by winding a belt or passing it through the belt.

  As described above, since there are limitations on products for conventional belts (bands), the product forms on the market have not changed so much. Recently, portable ashtrays are gaining popularity as keychains and hook types to improve smoking manners, but they are also attached using belt holes and bag hardware. However, these products have many restrictions on the mounting position and strength.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a point, and the object thereof is various by effectively utilizing a belt (band) by using a joint having a stable fixing force that can be freely removed. Is to create new product fields that can create new added value.

  The belt clip of the present invention that achieves the above-described object can be realized relatively easily by applying the conventional technique. One of the methods is to change the size and shape of the conventional product because the object to be attached is different. However, belt clips can be used in a variety of situations, and in some cases they require stronger strength than conventional ones, so they can be tightened to prevent slipping and strengthen the fixing force or to install springs to accommodate the thickness. It is necessary to structurally strengthen the belt (band).

  For example, using conventional metal fittings, in addition to practical use like a tie pin, adding decoration and incorporating accessory elements (including one-point accessories), easy removal with springs and anti-slip There are new types that can be used, and dial adjustments that use screws.

  As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to create various added values by effectively using a belt (band) by using a joint having a stable fixing force that can be freely removed. Product fields can be created.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

  1 to 5 relate to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 1 is a front side view in a closed state showing an example of a joint using a roller, and FIG. 2 is a front side view in an open state showing an example of a joint using a roller. 3 is a front side view showing an example of a joint using a dial, FIG. 4 is a side view showing an embodiment of the joint of FIGS. 1 and 2, and FIG. 5 is a front view of FIG.

  1 and 2 show a joint using a roller according to an embodiment of the present invention, which includes belt fixing portions 1 and 2, a tightening portion 3, a roller portion 4, and a stopper portion 5.

  The roller joints of FIGS. 1 and 2 are provided with fixing portions 1 and 2 for fixing to the belt (band), and the roller portion 4 through the roller portion 4 while sliding the main body to the belt (band) in the closed state of FIG. It is easily fixed by putting a belt (band) between the main body fixing portions 1 and 2. The roller part is equipped with a gear on the side of the roller so that it can only rotate clockwise. Moreover, the fixing | fixed part 1 and the roller part 4 are covered with the rubber | gum, and are devised, such as slip prevention. Further, in order to cope with the thickness of the belt (band), the tightening portion 3 is provided with a tightening function such as a spring so as to correspond to a certain thickness. Due to such a structure, when the belt (band) is inserted into the joint, the joint is fixed to the belt (band) with a stable fixing force unless the stopper portion 5 is pushed to the open state of FIG. If more fixing force and stability are required, it is possible to take measures such as using two roller portions.

  FIG. 3 shows a joint using a dial according to the embodiment of the present invention, and is composed of fixed portions 6 and 7, a dial portion 8, and an adjustment portion 9.

  The dial joint of FIG. 3 is fixed by adjusting and fixing the fixing portion 6 with the dial portion 8, inserting a belt (band) between the fixing portions 6 and 7, and adjusting and tightening the dial portion 8. The fixing portion 6 is integrated with the dial portion 8 and is fixed by tightening the screw of the dial portion 8. Moreover, in order to respond | correspond to the thickness of a belt (band | zone), the adjustment part 9 is provided and it has a structure which can be adjusted according to thickness. In addition, in this figure, the fixed portion 6 and the dial portion 8 are integrated, but can be separated using a gear or the like.

  In addition to the roller type and dial type described above, there are many methods of joints such as a combination of mechanisms such as cams and gears, but they are omitted here.

  4 and 5 show an embodiment using the roller-type joint of FIGS. 1 and 2, and many embodiments are conceivable, but this time a mobile phone case is taken as an example. In FIG. 4, a rotating part 10 is provided on a roller joint, and a mobile phone case is attached thereto.

  Since the roller joint can be easily installed by sliding in, the mobile phone can be easily attached to the belt (band) part of the shoulder bag or the pocket part or edge of the bag. In addition, in this embodiment, since the orientation of the mobile phone can be freely changed by providing the rotating portion 10, there is a characteristic that it can be attached to the belt (band) either orthogonally or in parallel. This is shown in FIG.

  Recently, mobile phones are a necessity in the age of each person. Men carry them in their pants pockets, but many women find it difficult to recognize incoming calls because they are in their bags, and it is difficult to find a mobile phone in their bag. In such a situation, it will become the mainstream in the future to hang outside the bag or hang it with a chain or string in the bag for easy removal. However, hanging and hanging is unstable, so a carrying case with this form of belt clip will be required.

  Next, the joints shown in FIGS. These joints can be implemented by conventional techniques, but in order to use them as a belt clip, it is necessary to change the conventional size, shape, and application for the belt clip. In some cases, it is necessary to supplement springs, anti-slip, adjustment functions, etc., in order to strengthen the fixing force and cope with the thickness.

  However, depending on the purpose of use, there are some which can be used if only the application is changed in the conventional form. Therefore, the joint corresponding to the belt clip according to the present invention does not depend on the form thereof, and the one corresponding to the concept of the belt clip is referred to as a belt clip.

  FIG. 6 is a front side view when a clip is employed for the joint. The fixing part 11 is of a clip type and is used by being inserted into a belt (band). The metal fitting 12 is provided with a hook or the like so that an object can be caught. In the case of such a purpose of use, it can be implemented by changing the application to a belt clip and changing the size and shape in the conventional technical form. However, it must also be considered that many restrictions can be imposed on the half-side, mounting location and use conditions.

  7 to 9 are joints equivalent to those in FIG. 6, and are intended to be used for the purpose of providing a metal fitting 12 and hooking objects. In FIG. 7, the fixing part 13 is a button type, FIG. 8 is a clip part with the fixing part 14 sandwiched, and FIG. 9 is a fixing part 15 with a fastener type. In addition, various belt clips using other conventional technical forms are considered, but are omitted here.

  FIGS. 10-13 change the purpose of use of FIGS. 6-9, and are front side views for explaining the form of the metal fitting according to the use example, taking the clip type of FIG. 6 as an example. FIG. 10 is a direct attachment of a metal fitting 16 in which the hook of the metal fitting 12 in FIG. 6 is made large, and is improved to hook a larger one. FIG. 11 is a view in which a ring-shaped metal fitting 17 is attached, and is intended to be used for hooking a hook such as a key holder, contrary to FIG. In FIG. 12, a joint of a mounting bracket such as the bracket 18 is directly attached, and a belt clip is used as a joint for attaching an object. FIG. 13 shows an example of a joint of a belt clip product in which a belt clip is used as a metal fitting, and the clip is directly incorporated in an article and directly attached without using another joint. Various shapes of metal fittings for other purposes of use are also conceivable, but are omitted here.

  As described above, a number of belt clips using the conventional technical form are also conceivable. An example thereof will be described with reference to the side views of the accessory case shown in FIGS.

  14 and 15 are side views of the same accessory case, but only the shape of the joint is different. The joint 19 of FIG. 14 adopts the joint of FIG. 13 described above and is directly integrated into the product, and the accessory case itself is a belt clip product. For this reason, although the removal depends on the shape of the joint 19, it can be easily attached directly to the belt (band). Further, the joint 20 of FIG. 15 is a hook type, and is a belt clip product intended to be hooked on the joint as shown in FIG. Here, in the case of the format shown in FIG. 15, an object intended to be directly attached to a belt hole or the like without using a joint is remarkably similar. However, since the belt clip product has few restrictions on the attachment location, it does not include those where the attachment location is limited. That is, a product in which the attachment location is set to a belt hole or the like is excluded from the belt clip product. However, those that require a belt clip as a joint shall be included in the belt clip product. In summary, using a belt clip as a joint helps to install a conventional product, which means that the possibilities are widened.

  Finally, a special embodiment of the belt clip will be described with reference to the front views of FIGS.

  FIG. 16 is a front view showing an embodiment of a belt clip in which joints 21 are attached to both ends of a ring chain 22 in which the chain and the ring are joined together. It is attached to a belt (band) by a joint 21 and can be used as an accessory by wearing it on a bag or trouser belt, or it can be used as a medium for attaching a key holder separately. If it is installed in a bag, the key holders can be arranged according to the purpose, making it easier to take out. In particular, it can be used as a key chain for separating and storing keys. Further, the arrangements are various, and in this embodiment, the same effect can be obtained as long as there is an attachment portion regardless of the belt clip as in the attachment portion 23 as shown in FIG. The embodiment using the ring chain is a belt clip product originally derived from the belt clip, but is not limited to the belt clip, but rather a new product field called a ring chain product can be established.

  As mentioned above, belt clip products using belt clips can be created indefinitely by the combination of metal fittings and joints suitable for the purpose of use, and many products can be implemented for limited purposes even using conventional techniques. Potential to build a field. Thus, according to the present invention, by using a joint having a stable fixing force that can be freely removed, a new product that can create various added values by effectively using a belt (band). It becomes possible to create a field.

  The present invention can be used not only in the industrial field for manufacturing and selling joints such as metal fittings, but also in the industrial field for manufacturing and selling clothes, personal belongings, mobile cases, etc. It is possible to create new product fields.
