DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a long object having a cylindrical shape which is relatively thin and long and can be easily carried and carried, such as ayu fishing rod and other fishing rods. For mobile cases.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A portable case for a long object as described above is
In order to protect long objects such as fishing rods for sweetfish safely from external impacts and to make them easy to carry, the exterior is formed into a cylindrical shape with a hard material such as aluminum light alloy or ABS resin. Is manufactured as a so-called loose hard case, but for example, in the case of a one-piece cylindrical or square cylindrical case, the entrance is narrow and deep, so the buffer The dough could not be stretched to the deepest part.

Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 8, in the case of a rectangular cylindrical case, four flat plates 50 are sandwiched between the vertical grooves 52 of the corner fittings by using aluminum corner fittings 51 so as to sandwich the side edges of the flat plates 50. The vertical groove side pieces 53 and 54 are integrated from inside and outside by caulking. During this assembly, a lining 55, a cushion material 56, and the like are attached to the inner surface of the flat plate and the inner surface of the corner fitting.

[0004]

A rectangular tube-shaped case is assembled by inserting the flat plate into the vertical groove of the corner fitting by using the above-mentioned corner fitting and the flat plate and caulking, and lining the cushioning material therebetween. The method of attaching requires a great deal of labor and time for assembly, and it is difficult to attach the lining and the cushioning material without any seam and still in the deepest part, and to use four corner fittings, Because the entire case becomes too heavy and heavy, and it is expensive,
There was a problem that it lacked practicality.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to divide a case body into two parts in a longitudinal direction and connect the case body in a sliding manner to extend the length. It is possible to easily assemble a long cylindrical case without much trouble, and the backing etc. to be attached to the inner surface of the case can be constructed before assembly in advance, making it lightweight and cost effective. It is intended to provide a case for a long object.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, a portable case for a long object according to the present invention is a case for a long object such as a fishing rod formed of a cylindrical case. 2 split along the heart 1a. 1b, and one side edge serving as a dividing surface of each divided body has a protruding strip 2 for engagement.
On the other side edge portion, a concave groove 3 which engages and holds the corresponding projection on the divided body side from the inside and is slidable in the longitudinal direction.
are formed integrally with each other over the entire length in the longitudinal direction, and the engaging ridge 2 is fitted and locked in the concave groove 3a of the corresponding hook-shaped fitting 3 on the divided body side. The two divided bodies 1a. 1b are integrally connected, and the inner surface of the hook-shaped fitting piece 3 and the divided bodies 1a. 3. Buffer cloth on the inner surface of 1b.
5 is affixed before joining the divided bodies.

Further, the cylindrical case body 1 is moved along the axis by 2 mm.
The splits 1a and 1b are divided from each other, and a ridge 2 for engagement is engaged on one side edge serving as a division surface of each divided body, and a ridge on the corresponding divided body side is engaged on the other side edge from the inside. Hook-shaped fitting portions 3 having concave grooves 3a that can be held together and slidable in the longitudinal direction are formed integrally with each other over the entire length in the longitudinal direction, and the engaging ridges 2 are hook-shaped fitted on the corresponding divided bodies. Recessed groove 3 of piece 3
a, and the two divided bodies 1a and 1b are integrally connected to each other by sliding in the longitudinal direction from the end face side. The cushioning cloth 5 is attached to the inner surfaces of the divided bodies 1a and 1b except for the shape fitting part and the engaging ridge 2 before the divided bodies are joined.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 5 and 7, the cylindrical case body 1 is formed as a molded product of an aluminum light alloy or a hard synthetic resin, and is formed in a square tubular shape having a rectangular cross section. Polygons other than squares, cylinders, or ellipses are also possible.

The two divided bodies 1a and 1b are formed to have the same shape and the same size. The divided body 1a (or 1b) includes left and right side plates 1 '. 1 'and the bottom plate (or top plate) 1 "are formed in a gutter shape having a constant thickness, and the ridges 2 and the hook-shaped fitting portions 3 are relatively positioned on the side edges of the left and right side plates 1' and 1 '. It forms so that it may face.

The protruding strip 2 is provided on the side edge of the side plate 1 'so as to protrude in a hook shape via a connecting portion 2a bent inward.

The hook-shaped fitting piece 3 has a protruding piece 3b and a coupling part 3c.
And the engaging piece 3d at the tip forms a concave groove 3a.

The backing cloth 4 is made of nylon, cotton or other cloth, and is divided into 1a. Paste before assembling 1b.

The cushioning cloth 5 is made of an elastic material such as foamed polyethylene and has a large thickness. This cushioning cloth 5 is also divided into 1a. 1b is attached before assembling.

Two divided bodies 1a. Combining 1b gives 1
The cylindrical case 1 is formed from two rectangular cylindrical bodies, and a base ring 6 and a bottom cover 7 each formed of a hard resin molded product are integrally fitted at both ends of the cylindrical case 1, respectively, and rivets 8. And fix it at 9 or the like. An opening / closing lid 11 is attached to a base ring 6 through a hinge 10.
Install. The opening / closing lid 11 is locked or released by a lock 12.

One divided body 1b to be the cylindrical case body 1
, A handle 13 is attached.

[0017]

The two divided bodies 1a. 1b is moved back and forth from a state where the divided surfaces are opposed to each other, and the corresponding ridge 2 and the hook-shaped fitting portion 3 are fitted so that the front end surface of one 1b is applied to the rear end surface of the other 1a. And one of the divided bodies 1b
Is pushed forward to make the respective front end faces coincide with each other, and the two divided bodies 1a. 1b becomes indivisible and a cylindrical case body 1 presenting one rectangular cylinder is completed. Both divided bodies 1a. If an adhesive is applied in advance to a portion to be the fitting surface of 1b, it is integrated after fitting and cannot be separated.

[0018]

According to the present invention, the cylindrical case body 1 is divided into two parts 1a. 1b, engaging ridges 2 for engagement are provided on one side edge serving as a division surface of each divided body, and ridges on the corresponding divided body side are engaged and held on the other side edge from the inside. Hook-shaped fitting pieces 3 having concave grooves 3a slidable in the longitudinal direction are formed integrally with each other over the entire length in the longitudinal direction, and the engaging ridge pieces 2 are hook-shaped fitting pieces 3 on the corresponding divided body side. Of the two divided bodies 1a. 1b are integrally connected, so that once they are engaged, they are completely integrated in the direction of division and are not separated again, so that a thin and long cylindrical case is divided into two parts. A long cylindrical case with a backing, because it can be easily formed by fitting the body, and a backing or cushioning material can be pasted on the entire inner surface at the stage of the divided body in advance. Can be finished with high precision and can be provided at low cost.

Further, unlike the related art, a special joint fitting such as a corner fitting is not required, and a crimping operation is not required. Therefore, a problem caused by insufficient crimping can be eliminated.
