Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a powerless person to extremely easily and speedily perform binding operation of newspapers, magazines or the like without looseness of a string.SOLUTION: A rapid binding operation without requiring strength or know-how is attained only by a sequential operation of installing a special cross-shaped string having designed length and shape on a binding object such as newspapers by single operation, and inserting a binding tool 2 such as a bar through the string to rotate the string.

Description

    For home use, the A4 version of the four-fold old newspaper for January is the optimum binding target. Other binding targets are B5 version (magazines, etc.), A5 version (books, etc.), A6 version (paperback books) The present invention relates to a binding string and a binding method capable of quickly binding a binding object of any shape, vertical / horizontal ratio, etc., such as a mixture of them, etc. without requiring force.

  When looking at the collection resource storage area of apartments, condominiums, etc., we realize that there are few examples where the unity of old newspapers and magazines from homes has been made solid enough without looseness. This shows the difficulty of bundling work, and since the troublesomeness and difficulty have not been solved, a lot of contrivances and ideas have been made to date. It has not been.

  The reason for this is to tie up newspapers and magazines tightly and tightly with a commercially available binding string. 1) Certain knowledge about the binding method, 2) Preparation and cutting of binding strings, 3) Binding The troublesome work of wrapping the string around the object (several times) and tying it (in several places) and the last part of the string need to be cut. 4- The most difficult point is, A strong force was required to bind without slack.

  As an invention that mainly solves the above four problems, “Kurukuru Bundling Device” (utility model No. 105819) can be cited, but this is the type of string that can be used (nylon and paper only) and thickness (3 mm or less) However, since only a thin string can be used, the binding object is also limited to 10 kg or less. Furthermore, when tying newspapers or the like into ten characters, two binding operations are required. It is difficult to say that the above problems 1, 2, and 3 are solved. The present invention does not pay attention to “strings” and does not devise anything.

    There are "string-like ties" (patent application No. Hei 10-162751) and many similar inventions as inventions for solving the above problems 1, 2 and 3. However, all of these are the last binding work. Relying on the power of the hand, so it has not solved the biggest problem 4 that occurs during the binding work.

    There is an invention “Place Tightening Cord” (Utility Model No. 3019697) that eliminates loosening of the binding by tightening the string by rotating a metal rod or the like after tying the string. It is a work to correct slack after work, and it is hard to say that it is a binding work itself. Therefore, none of the above problems 1, 2, and 3 has been solved. Although it can be said that 4 is solved depending on the way of thinking, there is a problem that a bar-shaped clamp remains on the bundle.

  Therefore, the present invention solves all the problems 1 to 4 described above, and makes it possible to perform a bundling operation of newspapers and the like extremely easily and speedily without slacking of the string, regardless of any powerless bundling person. is there.

  The length of one month of newspapers stacked on a four-fold A4 version (about 35 centimeters) and the ratio of the A4 type long side of 297 mm to the short side of 210 mm is the length and width of this “crossing strap”. By reflecting it in the above, it has become possible to produce a “binding cross strap” that can effectively bind the above-mentioned binding object effectively without slack. One-touch wearing of this "crossing strap" on the object to be bound, passing a binding tool such as a rod through the loop-shaped portions at the four ends of the string, and rotating the binding tool allows no force or knack. A quick bundling operation was realized. This solves all the problems 1 to 4 described above.

“Cross straps for binding” is an A4 version (four-fold newspaper, telephone book, etc.) that is the optimal binding target, but is generated by applying a force in a certain direction during rotation. Thanks to the automatic adjustment ability that eliminates the imbalance in the length of the horizontal string, any type such as B5 version (magazines, etc.), A5 version (books, etc.), A6 version (paperbacks, etc.), or a mixture of them This is also effective with regard to the cross character binding.

    According to the present invention as described above, it becomes possible to perform a bundling operation of newspapers / magazines etc. very easily and speedily and without slack of a string even by any weak bundling person. It was.

    A wide range of materials (polypropylene, nylon, hemp, paper, etc.) can be used for the “cross tie for binding”, and it is possible to produce a “cross tie for binding” in a wide range of lengths and thicknesses. . That is, it is possible to bind objects to be bound having a wide range of sizes and weights, and it can be used not only for home use (for binding old newspapers) but also for industrial use (for binding steel plates, square materials, etc.).

    An example assuming a bundling operation for one month of a quarter-fold A4 newspaper at home is shown below. However, the following method can effectively bind a small amount of newspaper less than one month, and other objects to be bound in a wide range of sizes and vertical / horizontal ratios to a cross.

Prepare two points: 1. “Cross strap for binding” and 2, “Binding rod” or “String binding device”. (Figure 1)
1. “Cross strap for binding”: Made of various materials such as polypropylene and paper, and made by the following steps (a) to (e).
(B) Make a loop of a circumferential string of about 288cm (not limited to this size). Depending on the method of welding or knotting.
(B) Make a loop of a circumferential string of about 270cm (not limited to this size). The loops of (c) and (b) by the same method are treated as a single string, and the loops of (b) treated as a single string are joined (or crossed) at each center point. Only in the state). Joining is by the method of welding or knotting.
Attach a stopper string to the tip of either (d), (a) or (b) loop. (Stopper string is not required when using "string binder".)
(E), “Bundling cross straps” for home use that can effectively bind newspapers for a month or less, or any other size and length ratio to a cross A typical standard. (However, this is merely a representative standard, and it is possible to manufacture a “binding cross strap” using manufacturing methods, dimensions, and materials other than those described above.)

2. “Bundling rod”: A hollow metal rod such as aluminum (length 40 to 50 cm, diameter 1 to 1.3 cm is one guide). However, the “binding rod” is not limited to the above conditions.
Or "string binder": A commercially available one may be used.

  Place so that the four-fold A4-size newspaper (one month's worth) that is the object to be bound comes to the center point of the “cross strap for binding” spread on the floor. At that time, the length of the string and the length of the newspaper are combined. (Figure 2)

  Lift the string on each side to the top of the newspaper that is the object to be bound, group the four ends of the loop together, and pass a binding tool such as a “tie rod” (Fig. 3).

 At that time, the other three ends are tied together by a stopper string attached to one end of the four ends of the string. (If you use the “string binder”, you just pinch the four loops together with your fingers, and the stopper string is not required.) (Figure 4)

  After passing the 4 loops together through the tie rod, etc., rotate the tie rod, etc., twist the four strings connected to each loop, and tighten the object to be bound into a cross. . At that time, pulling the tie rod etc. vertically upward of the object to be bound, and proceeding with the rotation while applying tension to the string, the imbalance between the lengths of the vertical and horizontal ties is resolved. It can be tightened to the cross with the same power. (Figure 5)

  When the newspaper is sufficiently tight, tie the remainder of the stopper string that previously tied the four ends of the string together to one of the vertical or horizontal straps that bound the newspaper. (This operation is not necessary when using a "string binder".) (Fig. 6)

    The bundling work is completed by putting out force and pulling out the “bundling stick” quickly. (Fig. 7)

Claims (7)

A cruciform string for binding, wherein two strings are joined in a cross shape at the center, and a loop or a knot is formed at the tip of each string. By hooking a binding tool such as a rod on all four loops at the tip, and rotating the binding tool, the string connected to each loop can be rotated and twisted to bind the binding object into a cross. The binding cross strap according to claim 1, which can be formed. The two cords having a loop shape as a whole are joined to each other in a cross shape at the center, that is, not only the tip of each cord but also the whole cord is a loop shape. Item 3. A binding cruciform according to item 2. The two cords are not joined in a cross shape in advance, but are crossed into a cross shape on the floor for the first time during a binding operation, a binding object is placed on the cross, and a cross is bound. The bundling cross string according to claim 1 or claim 2 or claim 3. Two straps joined in the shape of a cross at the center are bonded to the paper bag that stores newspapers, etc., on the bottom and sides, and the two (cross strap and paper bag) are integrated in advance. The binding cross string according to claim 1, claim 2, or claim 3. Even if the ratio of the vertical / horizontal ratio of the binding object to the vertical / horizontal string length of the binding cross string is greatly out of alignment, the binding tool hooked on the loop during work is perpendicular to the binding object. With the method of rotating while strongly pulling upward, one of the tensioned strings effectively wraps around the other slack of the remaining length, and as the rotation progresses, The tension applied to the vertical and horizontal cords is equalized, and the object to be bound can be tied into a cross with equal force.
Because of the effects produced by the above operations, any shape of the binding object can be effectively tied in a cross shape without changing the length / ratio of the string. Item 4. A binding cross string according to claim 5. 7. The binding cross string according to claim 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, wherein the string is rotated by either "bar" or "string binder". .
