Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a product comprising a flexible member made of deformable fibers or the like. More specifically, it is a deformable product that can transform a desired part of a product made of the above-mentioned flexible members from an initial shape to another shape with a single touch, and can also be easily returned to the initial shape or an intermediate shape. The present invention relates to products made of flexible members made of fibers, etc.

Conventionally, products made of flexible materials such as fibers, such as sleeping bags, have had a cylindrical shape with only an opening for the head (initial shape), and a shape with arms and legs separated ( It is possible to easily and quickly transform the shape into another shape) or, contrary to the above transformation, from the other shape to the starting shape, and it is possible to attach buttons, etc., or sew them. Nothing could have been made possible without some outside intervention.

As another example, consider stuffed animals.

Generally, there are doll-like stuffed animals that don't have hands, feet, ears, etc. other than the main body, but if you transform a stuffed animal like this and suddenly make the hands and feet stick out, it can be very interesting. , it has not been possible to perform such a modification in the past. Therefore, even when a person is inside the stuffed animal and performs various movements, it is not possible to provide a sudden illusion, and it is not possible to provide sufficient interest.

The present invention has been developed in view of the above-mentioned points, and its gist is that a plurality of stretch fasteners each having an opening/closing slider are placed at a predetermined portion of a flexible member made of fibers or the like, with the open sides facing each other. one stretch tape constituting each stretch fastener and the other stretch tape of the adjacent stretch fastener are sequentially engaged with each other in the opposing parts, and an opening/closing slider is provided in the meshing part. Furthermore, these opening/closing sliders are integrated with a coupling ring or the like, so that one set of opening/closing sliders releases the engagement of one set of stretch tapes, while the other set of opening/closing sliders releases the other set. Tighten the stretch tape,
It is a product made of a flexible member made of deformable fibers, etc., which is designed to change the shape of the flexible member at the location where it is installed. To provide a product composed of a flexible member made of deformable fibers or the like, which can be changed from an initial shape to another shape or vice versa without special processing.

Next, embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the figure, 1 is a cylindrical body made of a flexible member such as fibers, and radial fasteners 2 are disposed at the bottom. As shown in FIG. 3, the radial fastener 2 includes a stretch fastener 4 consisting of stretch tapes a, b and a slider 3, a stretch fastener 6 consisting of stretch tapes c, d and a slider 5, and a stretch fastener 6 consisting of stretch tapes c, d and a slider 5. They are arranged so that the side that closes when moved, that is, the open side Q, faces P. Then, one stretch tape a of the one stretch fastener 4 is connected to the other stretch tape d of the other stretch fastener 6 adjacent to the other stretch tape b of the one stretch fastener 4, and the other stretch tape b of the one stretch fastener 4 is The stretch tape c on one side of the stretch fastener 6 is meshed with each other to form stretch fasteners 8 and 9 as shown in FIG. 4, and sliders 9 and 10 are disposed in the meshing portion R. Then, the four sliders 3, 5, 9, and 10 are integrally connected by a connecting ring 11. In this way, the four sliders 3, 5,
Since 9 and 10 are integrally connected, each slider cannot move independently. For this purpose, when the cylindrical body 1 is pulled in the direction indicated by the arrow X in FIG. ，
5, 9, and 10 while moving in the direction of arrow S. For this purpose, the stretch tapes a, b, c, d constituting the stretch fasteners 4, 6 are disengaged by the sliders 3, 5 and opened. However, the stretch tapes a, b,
Immediately thereafter, the tapes c and d are engaged with other adjacent stretch tapes, resulting in a closed state. In this way, the stretch tapes a, b, c, and d constituting the stretch fasteners 4 and 6 are moved in the direction of the arrow S within the sliders 3 and 5, and the stretch fasteners 4 and 6 are brought into the open state. Stretch tape a, b,
c and d pass through the sliders 9 and 10 following the passage through the sliders 3 and 5, where they are engaged with other adjacent stretch tapes and become closed, so that the entire radial tape 2 is As you can see, nothing has been opened; the engagement points have simply moved from the stretch fasteners 4 and 6 to the stretch fasteners 9 and 10. When the engagement point of the radial fastener 2 is moved as described above, the cylindrical body 1 changes from the bullet shape (initial shape) shown in FIG. 1 to the bifurcated shape (later shape) as shown in FIG. ) is transformed into When the cylindrical body 1 deformed into a bifurcated shape is pulled in the direction of the arrow Y in FIG. Since the cylindrical body 1 moves in the direction of arrow T in FIG. 2 and returns to the initial engaged state, the cylindrical body 1 returns to its initial shape as shown in FIG. If you want to return to the initial shape, use slider 3 in addition to the above.
This can also be done by pulling 5, 9, and 10 toward the front in FIG.

The present invention is a product made of a flexible material such as fibers that can be deformed as described above, and a more specific product will be described next.

First, the case where it is arranged in a sleeping bag will be explained according to FIGS. 5 to 7.

The radial fastener 2 having the above-mentioned configuration is disposed downward from the approximate center of the sleeping bag main body H. The above arrangement is such that the front part shown in FIG. 5 and the rear part shown in FIG.
Place it so that it is located at the bottom of the . At this time, the four stretch tapes a, b, and cd that make up the radial fastener 2 are meshed with stretch tapes a and b on the front side, and stretch tapes c and d on the back side, so that the inside of the sleeping bag body is unified. It has a cylindrical shape. In this state, if a force is applied to the lower part of the sleeping bag body H in the direction of arrow G as shown in FIG. 5, the meshing movement will occur for the reasons described above. That is, stretch tape a, which had been engaged with stretch tape b, is engaged with stretch tape d, and stretch tape b is now engaged with stretch tape b.
meshes with the stretch tape c and deforms the sleeping bag main body H into two cylindrical bodies below. This allows the user to walk with his left and right feet inside the sleeping bag body H. When returning to the original cylindrical body, it is done by integrating the sliders 3, 5, 9, and 10 by moving them downward in FIG. Similarly, the arm portion U can be formed independently of the sleeping bag main body H, if necessary, and the mobility of the arm can be improved. In addition, by disposing an independent slider separate from the sliders 3, 5, 9, and 10 at the end of each stretch tape 4, 6, 7, and 8, a hand portion U that is formed separately can be obtained. The tips of the legs K can be opened, allowing the user to put on shoes while still inside the sleeping bag, and to work by putting his hands out from the tips of the arms U.

Next, the stuffed toy will be explained according to FIGS. 8 and 9.

In this example, as shown in FIG. 6, radial fasteners 2 are arranged at required parts of a potbell-shaped stuffed toy body J formed only of a body J. As a result, ears M, hands U, legs K, etc. can be formed almost instantaneously as desired, making it possible to create a very interesting stuffed toy. For example, the stuffed toy may be made to be the same size and a person can enter inside and transform the stuffed toy from within, or the stuffed toy placed on a table may be enjoyed by being transformed.

Although we have described the sleeping bag and the stuffed animal in detail above, this invention is applicable to other products made of flexible materials,
For example, cloaks, jackets, clothes, bags, etc. can be transformed. Further, in this embodiment, the radial fastener 2 was formed by combining two stretch fasteners, but as shown in FIG.
It is also possible to form a radial fastener 1 by combining one or more stretch fasteners to deform a flexible member.

As described in detail above, the present invention includes a plurality of stretch fasteners each having an opening/closing slider at a predetermined portion of a flexible member made of fibers, etc., arranged with their open sides facing each other, and each stretcher at the opposing portion. One stretch tape that constitutes a stretch asener;
The other stretch tape of the other stretch fastener adjacent to this is sequentially engaged, and an opening/closing slider is disposed in the engaging part, and these opening/closing sliders are integrated by a coupling ring or the like, and one set is assembled. It is composed of a flexible member made of fibers, etc. whose shape is changed by opening and closing one set of stretch tapes with the opening/closing slider and engaging the other set of stretch tapes with the other opening/closing slider. Since it is a product, the meshing of the stretch tape can be moved from one set to the other, so it can be used, for example, to change the shape of a sleeping bag to improve its mobility, or to transform a stuffed animal to make it more interesting. It has various advantages such as providing a product made of a flexible member made of deformable fibers etc.
