Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a storage item in which artificial hair is stored. [Background technology]

[0002] 2. Description of the Related Art Artificial hair fiber bundles that imitate human hair have been used as materials for head accessories such as wigs, extensions, braids, and hair bands. When artificial hair fiber bundles are sold, they are usually placed in a bag member together with a mount and sold (for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] U.S. Pat. No. 1,078,6026 [Patent Document 2] U.S. Pat. No. 1,094,5478 [Patent Document 3] U.S. Patent No. 10980301 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, conventional artificial hair fiber bundles stored in a bag member may be deformed flat along the mount due to gravity, giving the consumer an impression that the overall volume is smaller than the actual volume. In addition, for example, when transporting, the stored items may be stacked, and when stacked, they may be deformed, giving the consumer the impression that the volume is smaller as described above. As a result, the consumer cannot be satisfied with the volume, and there is a concern that their motivation to purchase may decrease. Furthermore, when producers store artificial hair fiber bundles in a bag member, the artificial hair fibers may become tangled or the ends of the artificial hair may become loose, making it difficult to store and difficult to produce efficiently.

[0005] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a storage item that gives the consumer the impression that the item is larger in volume than before and that can be efficiently manufactured by manufacturers. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] One aspect of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is a storage item comprising artificial hair and a bag member, the artificial hair having a fiber bundle in which a plurality of fibers are bundled together, the fiber bundle having a first fiber region and a second fiber region folded back at a folding back portion, an end side of the fiber bundle being divided into at least a first divided bundle and a second divided bundle, the first divided bundle and the second divided bundle being woven together, the first divided bundle being a mixture of some of the fibers of the first fiber region and some of the fibers of the second fiber region, and the fiber bundle being stored inside the bag member.

[0007] According to this aspect, the fiber bundles are woven inside the bag member, which gives the fiber bundles a three-dimensional appearance, giving the consumer the impression that the bundles are more voluminous than before, and for producers, the fiber bundles are less likely to become tangled, allowing for efficient production. According to this aspect, since the first split bundle is a mixture of some of the fibers from the first fiber region and some of the fibers from the second fiber region, when the artificial hair is removed from the bag member and placed on a horizontal surface, the fiber bundle is less likely to unravel and spread out excessively.

[0008] A preferred aspect is that the bag member has a positioning member having an engaging piece, the bag member has an opening that is open in the longitudinal direction, the positioning member is stored inside the bag member, and movement in the width direction is restricted, and the engaging piece engages with the folded-back portion inside the bag member.

[0009] In a preferred aspect, the fiber bundle has a third split bundle, the second split bundle being composed of the majority of the fibers in the first fiber region, and the third split bundle being composed of the majority of the fibers in the second fiber region, and the first split bundle, the second split bundle, and the third split bundle are braided together. Effect of the Invention

[0010] According to the present invention, it is possible to give the consumer the impression that the volume is greater than before, and for the producer, the fiber bundles are less likely to become tangled, allowing for efficient production. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0012] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0013] A storage item 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention is intended to be sold, etc., by being hung from a hook portion 101 provided on a structure 100, such as a wall surface or a fixture, as shown in FIG. In the following description, unless otherwise specified, the storage item 1 is assumed to be in a position suspended from the hook portion 101 of the structure 100. The storage item 1 includes artificial hair 2, a bag member 3, and a backing member 5, as shown in FIG.

[0014] (Artificial hair 2) The artificial hair 2 is artificial hair for a braid (BRAID), and has a fiber bundle 10, a first bundling part 11, and a second bundling part 12 as shown in FIG. The fiber bundle 10 is a fiber bundle for artificial hair in which a plurality of fibers 15 extend in a bundle, and the middle portion is bound by a first bundling portion 11 and the end portion is bound by a second bundling portion 12. As shown in FIG. 4, the fiber bundle 10 is folded back at the bundled portion 20 that is bundled by the first bundling portion 11, and is divided into a first fiber region 25 on one end side and a second fiber region 26 on the other end side based on the bundled portion 20.

[0015] When the fiber bundle 10 is unwoven as shown in Figure 4(a), the first fiber region 25 is branched into two toward one end side based on the bound portion 20, and has a first branched portion 27 (second split bundle) and a second branched portion 28. The first branched portion 27 is a split bundle to which most of the fibers 15 belonging to the first fiber region 25 belong, and preferably more than ½ to ¾ or less of the fibers 15 belonging to the first fiber region 25 belong. The second branched portion 28 is a split bundle containing the remainder of the fibers 15 belonging to the first fiber region 25, and preferably contains more than ¼ and not more than ½ of the fibers 15 belonging to the first fiber region 25.

[0016] When the fiber bundle 10 is unwoven as shown in Figure 4(a), the second fiber region 26 is branched into two toward the other end side based on the bound portion 20, and has a third branch portion 29 (third divided bundle) and a fourth branch portion 30. The third branch portion 29 is a split bundle to which most of the fibers 15 belonging to the second fiber region 26 belong, and preferably to which more than ½ but not more than ¾ of the fibers 15 belonging to the second fiber region 26 belong. The fourth branch portion 30 is a split bundle containing the remainder of the fibers 15 belonging to the second fiber region 26, and preferably contains more than ¼ and not more than ½ of the fibers 15 belonging to the second fiber region 26.

[0017] The second branched portion 28 of the first fiber region 25 and the fourth branched portion 30 of the second fiber region 26 are joined together to form a bundle as shown in FIG. 4(b), forming a junction 31 (first split bundle). In the fiber bundle 10 of this embodiment, the confluence 31, the first branch portion 27, and the third branch portion 29 have approximately the same weight, and it is preferable that the difference in weight among the confluence 31, the first branch portion 27, and the third branch portion 29 is 1 / 5 or less of the weight of the fiber bundle 10. In the fiber bundle 10 , the joining portion 31 , the first branch portion 27 and the third branch portion 29 are braided together, and a loop portion 32 is formed around the portion to be tied 20 .

[0018] The fibers 15 are preferably made of at least one type of fiber selected from the group consisting of acrylic fibers, polyvinyl chloride fibers, polypropylene fibers, and polyethylene terephthalate fibers, and are more preferably made of modacrylic fibers. The cross-sectional shape of the fibers 15 is not particularly limited, and can be, for example, a circle, a Y-shape, an H-shape, a U-shape, a C-shape, an X-shape, a flat shape, or the like.

[0019] The first bundling portion 11, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, binds the middle portions of the fibers 15 into the fiber bundle 10, and is a fixing portion that fixes the fiber bundle 10 to the backing member 5. The first binding portion 11 is specifically a rubber band that has elasticity and is provided with annular fixing portions 16, 17 at both ends.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 2, the second bundling part 12 binds the vicinity of the lower end of the fiber bundle 10, and is specifically a rubber band, which is an elastic ring-shaped member. The term "vicinity of the lower end of the fiber bundle 10" as used herein refers to a range from the lower end of the fiber bundle 10 to ⅕ or less of the length of the fiber bundle 10 in the vertical direction (length direction).

[0021] (Bag member 3) The bag member 3 is a transparent bag having transparency, and includes a bag main body portion 50 and a protruding portion 51 as shown in FIG. As shown in Figure 3, when viewed from the front, the bag main body 50 is a vertically elongated rectangle with long sides in the vertical direction (lengthwise direction), and has an opening 55 along the short side at the lower end (one end in the lengthwise direction). The opening 55 is an opening that connects the inside and outside of the bag body 50 and is an opening that opens downward.

[0022] The protruding portion 51 is continuous with the upper end portion of the bag body portion 50, is a portion that protrudes upward from the upper end portion of the bag body portion 50, and is provided with a hook hole 56 in the middle portion in the up-down direction. The hook hole 56 is a portion that engages with the hook portion 101 to hang the bag member 3 on the hook portion 101. The hook hole 56 is a through hole that penetrates the protruding portion 51 in the thickness direction.

[0023] (Backing material 5) The mount member 5 is a holding member that holds the artificial hair 2, and is a positioning member that restricts the movement of the artificial hair 2 in the width direction inside the bag member 3 and positions the artificial hair 2 inside the bag member 3. The mount member 5 includes a mount main body portion 60 and a locking portion 61, as shown in FIG. The mount main body 60 is a rectangular paper-like body that is folded back at a fold-back portion 62 located in the middle of the longitudinal direction, and is divided into a first main body portion 63 and a second main body portion 64 based on the fold-back portion 62.

[0024] The first main body portion 63 is a paper-like portion that covers a part of the front side of the artificial hair 2, as shown in FIG. On the front surface of the first main body portion 63 of this embodiment, information (not shown) about the artificial hair 2, such as the features of the artificial hair 2, the manufacturer, the price, and a barcode, is printed. As shown in FIG. 2, the first main body portion 63 has a length L1 from the folded-back portion 62 that is shorter than the length of the bag main body portion 50 of the bag member 3.

[0025] The second main body portion 64 is a portion that covers a part or the whole of the back side of the artificial hair 2. On the back surface of the second main body portion 64 in this embodiment, information (not shown) about the artificial hair 2, such as the features of the artificial hair 2, the manufacturer, the price, and a barcode, is written. As shown in FIG. 2, the second main body portion 64 has a length L2 from the folded-back portion 62 that is equal to or less than the length of the bag main body portion 50 of the bag member 3. The length L2 of the second main body portion 64 from the folded portion 62 is longer than the length L1 of the first main body portion 63 from the folded portion 62, and is preferably 1.5 to 5 times the length L1 of the first main body portion 63 from the folded portion 62, and more preferably 2 to 4 times the length. The locking portion 61 is continuous with the mount main body 60 and is an engagement piece that is cut and raised relative to the mount main body 60. The locking portion 61 extends upward from the mount main body 60.

[0026] Next, the positional relationship of each part of the stored item 1 when the hook portion 101 of the stored item 1 of this embodiment is inserted into the hook hole 56 and hung from the structure 100 as shown in FIG.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 3, the artificial hair 2 and the mount member 5 are inserted into the bag member 3 through the opening 55, and the artificial hair 2 and the mount member 5 are stored inside the bag member 3. As can be seen from Figure 2, the artificial hair 2 has the middle portion of the fiber bundle 10 fixed by the annular fixing portion 16 of the first bundling portion 11, and the annular fixing portion 17 of the first bundling portion 11 engaged with the locking portion 61 of the backing member 5. As shown in FIG. 1, the artificial hair 2 has a middle portion sandwiched between a first main body portion 63 and a second main body portion 64 of the mount member 5. The artificial hair 2 is partially exposed from the first main body portion 63 and can be seen from the outside of the bag member 3 through the bag member 3. The bag member 3 is folded upward near the lower end of the bag main body portion 50 to close the opening 55. That is, the bag member 3 is provided with a folded portion 70 at the lower end of the bag main body portion 50, and the folded portion 70 is adhered to the bag main body portion 50 by an adhesive means such as an adhesive tape. The folded portion 70 of the bag member 3 prevents the artificial hair 2 and the backing member 5 from falling out of the bag main body portion 50.

[0028] The mount member 5 is configured so that most of the outer surfaces of the first main body portion 63 and the second main body portion 64 are visible through the bag member 3. The longitudinal direction of the mount member 5 coincides with the longitudinal direction of the bag member 3, and also coincides with the extension direction of the artificial hair 2. In other words, the insertion direction of the mount member 5 into the bag main body 50 and the longitudinal direction of the artificial hair 2 essentially coincide with each other, and the artificial hair 2 is unlikely to interfere with the insertion of the mount member 5 into the bag main body 50.

[0029] According to the stored item 1 of the present embodiment, the fiber bundle 10 is woven inside the bag member 3, so that the fiber bundle 10 has a three-dimensional shape, giving the consumer the impression that the item is more voluminous than before. According to the storage item 1 of this embodiment, the second branched portion 28 composed of some of the fibers 15 in the first fiber region 25 and the fourth branched portion 30 composed of some of the fibers 15 in the second fiber region 26 are mixed to form the junction portion 31, and the junction portion 31 is woven together with the first branched portion 27 and the third branched portion 29. Therefore, when storing the artificial hair 2 in the bag member 3, the artificial hair 2 is easily packed from the bag member 3, and when the artificial hair 2 is taken out from the bag member 3, the fiber bundle 10 is unlikely to unravel and spread excessively. As a result, it is easy for producers to manufacture efficiently, and easy for practitioners to take out the artificial hair 2 from the bag member 3 and apply it.

[0030] According to the storage item 1 of this embodiment, the mount member 5 is stored inside the bag member 3, the movement of the opening 55 in the width direction (the direction perpendicular to the length direction) is restricted, and the locking portion 61 of the mount member 5 engages with the second bundling portion 12 of the artificial hair 2 inside the bag member 3. Therefore, the artificial hair 2 is less likely to move inside the bag member 3.

[0031] According to the storage item 1 of this embodiment, the artificial hair 2 is braided at the confluence 31, the first branch portion 27 made up of most of the fibers 15 in the first fiber region 25, and the third branch portion 29 made up of most of the fibers 15 in the second fiber region 26, so that it can have a balanced volume and is easy to place the artificial hair 2 into the bag member 3.

[0032] According to the stored item 1 of the present embodiment, the fiber bundle 10 can be seen through the bag member 3, so that the characteristics of the fiber bundle 10 can be recognized at a glance.

[0033] In the above embodiment, braiding is performed using the joining portion 31, but the present invention is not limited to this. It is sufficient if braiding is performed using the joining portion 31. For example, double braiding may be performed using the joining portion 31.

The portion to be tied 20 of the fiber bundle 10 may be directly engaged with the locking portion 61 of the backing member 5.

[0036] In the above embodiment, the backing member 5 is folded at the folding portion 62, and the artificial hair 2 is sandwiched between the main body portions 63, 64, but the present invention is not limited to this. The main body portion 63 and / or the main body portion 64 may not be provided, and the artificial hair 2 may not be sandwiched between both the main body portions 63, 64.

[0037] In the above embodiment, the locking portion 61 is provided near the folded-back portion 62, but the present invention is not limited to this. The locking portion 61 may be provided at a position away from the folded-back portion 62.

[0038] In the above embodiment, the length L2 of the second body portion 64 from the folded-back portion 62 is longer than the length L1 of the first body portion 63 from the folded-back portion 62, but the present invention is not limited to this. The length L2 of the second body portion 64 from the folded-back portion 62 may be the same as or smaller than the length L1 of the first body portion 63 from the folded-back portion 62.

[0039] In the above embodiment, the vicinity of the lower end of the bag body 50 is folded back and the opening 55 is closed by the folded back portion, but the present invention is not limited to this. As shown in Fig. 5, a flap portion 80 may be provided at an end of the bag body 50 and the opening 55 may be closed by folding the flap portion 80. In this case, the flap portion 80 may be provided at the upper end or the lower end of the bag body 50.

[0040] In the above embodiment, the vicinity of the lower end of the bag body portion 50 is folded back, and the folded back portion of the bag body portion 50 is bonded to the remaining portion of the bag body portion 50 by an adhesive means such as an adhesive tape, but the present invention is not limited to this. The folded back portion of the bag body portion 50 may be bonded to the remaining portion of the bag body portion 50 by fusing a part of the bag body portion 50.
