Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to containers with hanging vines, including clay pots, lids, ice containers, and the like.

[Conventional technology]

The inventor of this invention focused on the fact that traditional earthenware pots use natural materials such as bamboo for the vines, which requires difficult bending, and that the appearance of the earthenware pot with the vines hung is not good.
Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 118861/1986 discloses a clay pot whose vines are easy to process and whose ears are improved.

This earthenware pot has protrusions facing each other on the inside of a pair of ears of the earthenware bottle body, and uses the protrusions to create a vine with mounting holes at both ends, and uses the outward restoring force of the vine. It has a structure that allows it to be attached.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

This earthenware pot takes advantage of the fact that even when the vine ages, the restoring force that tends to return to its original shape acts outwards on the ears of the earthenware bottle, making it suitable for everyday use.

However, there is a problem in that the temples tend to come off when an external force that bends the temples is applied.

The object of the present invention is to provide a container hung with a vine that eliminates the drawback that the vine easily comes off.

[Means for solving problems]

The container with a hanging vine of the present invention has a container main body having a raised edge around the mouth and a pair of ear portions having inward protrusions facing each other on the outside of the raised edge. From the thickness of both ends of the arc-shaped temple, mounting holes that fit into the opposing protrusions are provided near both ends between the pair of ears and the standing edge around the mouth. It is also characterized by having a gap that is slightly larger and open on the sides.

[Effect]

If you lay the temple on its side and insert both ends into the gap, then press the temple from the outside and stand it up, the inward-facing protrusion of the ear will fit into the fitting hole of the temple. Moreover, when the temple thus attached to the container body is in the upright state, the ears and the raised edges forming the gap act as a stopper.

〔Example〕

Below, the features of the present invention will be specifically explained using examples.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the clay pot, which is one of the containers with a hanging vine of the present invention, has a container body 1,
It consists of a temple 7 attached to the inside of a pair of ears 3 of the container body 1.

A raised edge 2 is provided around the mouth of the container body 1 to which the lid 4 is attached. In addition, the ears 3 provided symmetrically on the outside of the raised edge 2 are provided with inwardly directed protrusions 5 facing each other. Then, the container body 1
A groove-shaped gap 6 is formed between the raised edge 2 and the ear portion 3, which is approximately equal in thickness to the end portion 8 of the temple 7 and is interposed so as to sandwich the end portion 8.

The vine 7 according to the present invention is made of natural materials such as bamboo and rattan, and is processed into an arc shape using heat, synthetic resin, and adhesive.

Vines, which are made by bending conventional natural materials such as bamboo, are susceptible to water and the like, and are prone to mold, corrosion, and cracking. Therefore, in the vine according to the present invention, the semi-processed material of the vine is placed under reduced pressure,
By using a processing method that removes the moisture and air in it and replaces it by impregnating it with a curable synthetic resin liquid, we succeeded in dramatically improving durability by making it less likely to deform, as well as having water resistance and elasticity. did. In addition, traditional bamboo and wisteria vines are
It used to be difficult to increase the width, but by using the above-mentioned processing method, the width can be freely made using natural materials such as bamboo and wood, making it easy to hold in the hand and have an attractive appearance. shall be held. However, from the viewpoint of cost etc., synthetic resin vines may also be used.

The temple 7 is provided with mounting holes 9, 9 facing each other at some distance from its end 8.
The temple 7 is processed so that the distance between the outer sides of the end portions 8, 8 is equal to or slightly larger than the distance between the inner portions of the ear portions 3, 3 of the container body 1, where the protrusions 5, 5 are provided. It has been done.

Next, how to attach the temple 7 to the container body 1 will be explained.

As shown by the dashed line in FIG. 3, lay the temple 7 on its side, position its end 8 inside the ear 3 of the container body 1, and insert the protrusion 5 of the ear 3 into the mounting hole of the temple 7. 9, and then rotate the temple 7 to stand it up as shown by the solid line. When the temple 7 stands up, the end portion 8 having a generous length is interposed in the gap 6 between the raised edge 2 of the container body 1 and the ear portion 3. In this way, although the temple 7 can rotate about the protrusions 5, 5, it is difficult to come off from the container body 1 because it is caught between the raised edge 2 and the ears 3.

As shown in FIGS. 4a and 4b, movement of the temple 7 in the X direction indicated by the arrow is restricted by the raised edge 2. For this reason, the protrusion 5a of the ear portion 3 can be formed short as shown in the figure to make it less likely to be damaged.

In addition, in FIGS. 4a and 4b, a locking portion 10 is provided between the ear portion 3 and the temple 7 to hold the temple 7 straight.
has been established. 10a is a locking protrusion provided on the inside of the ear portion 3, and 10b is a locking recess provided at the outer end of the temple 7. The locking portion 10 allows the temple 7 to stand upright unless forced, making it easy to hold.

As mentioned above, the vine 7 is reinforced because it is processed with resin, but for heavy containers, the lower part 11 shown by the dotted line may be fastened with a string near the attachment hole 9 of the vine 7, or It is reinforced by caulking with metal fittings to ensure that it prevents cracking, which is a drawback of natural materials.

As shown in FIGS. 5a and 5b, a locking portion 12 for making the temple 7 stand straight is formed by a locking convex portion 12a formed on the ear portion 3 corresponding to the bottom of the gap 6, and at the end of the temple 7. It can also be provided by a locking recess 12b formed in the portion 8.

As shown in FIG. 6, the raised edge 2a is integrated with the ear portion 3.
It is also possible to provide a structure in which the ends 8 of the temples 7 are interposed in the formed gaps 6 to prevent the temples 7 from moving toward the center.

As is clear from FIG. 2, the mounting hole 9 of the temple 7
The end portions 8 provided with the ear portions 3 and 3 of the container body 1 respectively
3 and is difficult to see from the outside. Therefore, containers such as clay pots with hanging vines have a sleek appearance.

[Effect of idea]

The container with hanging vines of the present invention not only allows the vines to be easily attached to the container, but also prevents the vines from coming off from the container during normal use.Since the vine attachment part is not visible from the outside, the entire structure is stable. It has the effect of reducing
