Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a lockable storage bag equipped with a locking member and a method for using the same. [Background technology]

[0002] 2. Description of the Related Art With the increasing number of bicycle riders making an effort to wear helmets, helmet storage bags equipped with locking members have been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0003] The helmet storage bag described in Patent Document 1 has a mesh section on the bag body in case the helmet gets wet. However, the mesh section tends to be weak, and there is a risk that the bag body may be torn through this mesh section with a blade or the like, and the helmet may be stolen. In addition, the bag body can store various items, not just helmets. For this reason, the inside of the bag body may not only get wet, but may also get dirty. Furthermore, the outside of the bag body may get dirty. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 30242670 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, the locking member makes it difficult to wash the bag, and in particular makes it almost impossible to wash it in a washing machine.

[0006] In view of the above circumstances, the present invention aims to provide a locked storage bag that is equipped with a locking member and allows the bag body to be easily washed if it becomes dirty, and a method for using the same. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The lockable storage bag that solves the above-mentioned objectives is A bag having an opening formed by a pair of edges; a locking member extending along one of the pair of edges and connecting both ends to lock the locking member, The bag body can be rolled up from a stretched state around the locking member as an axis so that the opening is on the inside, The locking member prevents the bag body from returning to the stretched state by connecting and locking both ends of the bag body when the bag body is rolled up, and is characterized in that the locking member is detachable from the bag body when the bag body is stretched.

[0008] According to the lockable storage bag of the present invention, by connecting and locking both ends of the locking member when the bag body is rolled up, it is possible to prevent the bag body from being returned to the unfolded state, and it is possible to prevent the bag body from being opened and the contents of the bag body being stolen. In addition, if the locking member is used to fix the bag body to an arbitrary location, it is possible to prevent the bag body itself from being taken away from that location. In addition, when the bag body is unfolded, the locking member is detachable from the bag body. The locking member can be removed from the bag body only when the bag body is unfolded when there is no risk of theft. If the bag body is unfolded from the locking member, it is easy to wash the bag body, and it can be washed in a washing machine. When the bag body is unfolded after washing, the locking member can be attached. Furthermore, the lockable storage bag of the present invention can be used as an anti-theft lock for a saddle-type vehicle such as a two-wheeled vehicle or a three-wheeled vehicle by passing the locking member through the wheel of the vehicle, which is very convenient. In such a usage method, the bag body comes into contact with the tire and is likely to become dirty, but since the bag body can be washed, this usage method can be actively used.

[0009] The bag is preferably made of knife-proof fibers (e.g., aramid fibers or high molecular weight polyethylene fibers). The bag is preferably completely closed without any mesh or window.

[0010] Also, The locking member has both ends each having a larger thickness than an extension portion connecting the both ends, the bag body has a housing portion provided at the first edge portion for housing the locking member, The storage section may be changeable between a closed state and an open state, storing the locking member in the closed state, and becoming open when the locking member is removed.

[0011] Even if the locking member cannot be pulled out in the extending direction of the extending portion, the locking member can be easily removed.

[0012] moreover, The locking member may have a fixing means for being fixed to the storage portion.

[0013] The fixing means can prevent the locking member from shifting in the longitudinal direction (the extension direction of the extension portion).

[0014] Also, At least one of the pair of edge portions may be characterized in that it extends in the direction in which the edge portions extend and has a rigid body having a rigidity higher than that of a material forming the bag body.

[0015] For example, a second edge of the pair of edges opposite the first edge may have a second rigid body, the first edge may have a first rigid body, or the first edge may have both the second rigid body and the first rigid body.

[0016] By providing the rigid body, the shape of the edge portion is maintained. Even if the bag body is made of anti-cutting fiber, it is soft and has a certain degree of freedom in changing shape. Therefore, even when the bag body is rolled up, there is a risk that the edge portion may be forcibly pulled down to create a gap through which items inside the bag may be stolen. Therefore, by providing the rigid body on the edge portion, it becomes impossible to pull down the edge portion to create a gap when the bag body is rolled up, and the anti-theft measures are further improved.

[0017] In addition, the method of using the above-mentioned lockable storage bag is as follows: a closing step of rolling the bag body of the lockable storage bag around the lock member as an axis so that the opening is on the inside and closing the opening; a locking step of passing the locking member through a wheel of a saddle-ride type vehicle in a rolled-up state and locking the locking member by connecting both ends of the locking member to each other; The present invention is characterized by having the following.

[0018] The lockable storage bag used in this method is designed to have dimensions such that the locking member can be passed through the wheel of a saddle-type vehicle with the bag rolled up, and both ends of the locking member can be connected to each other. According to this method, the lockable storage bag can be used to prevent items stored in the bag from being taken out of the bag, as well as to prevent the wheels of the saddle-type vehicle from rotating, that is, as an anti-theft lock for the saddle-type vehicle. Moreover, according to this method, the bag is likely to get dirty when it comes into contact with the tire, but with the lockable storage bag, the locking member can be removed from the bag, so the bag is easy to wash and can be washed in a washing machine, so there is no problem even if the bag gets dirty. On the other hand, this method can be implemented precisely because the bag is easy to wash. Effect of the Invention

[0019] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a locked storage bag that is equipped with a locking member and yet allows the bag body to be easily washed if the inside of the bag becomes dirty, and a method for using the same. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0021] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0022] FIG. 1 is a front view of a lockable storage bag corresponding to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a rear view of the lockable storage bag shown in FIG.

[0023] The lockable storage bag 1 of this embodiment includes a bag body 11 and a locking member 12. The bag body 11 is formed of high molecular weight polyethylene fiber, which is a blade-resistant fiber, and has a first body portion 111 shown in FIG. 1 and a second body portion 112 and a bottom portion 113 shown in FIG. 2. As shown in FIG. 1, the first body portion 111 is provided with a logo TM, and the first body portion 111 side is the front side, and the second body portion 112 side shown in FIG. 2 is the back side. The first body portion 111 and the second body portion 112 are sewn together at their left and right sides, and the lower end of the first body portion 111 and the lower end of the second body portion 112 are connected at the bottom portion 113. That is, a storage section is provided between the first body section 111 and the second body section 112, and an opening 110 (see Figs. 2 and 4(A)) that leads to the storage section is formed between the upper edge of the first body section 111 and the upper edge of the second body section 112. The bottom section 113 is flat and is harder (more rigid) than the first body section 111 and the second body section 112, and maintains its flat shape even when an object is stored in the storage section. Five bottom studs 1131 are attached to the bottom section 113, and the lockable storage bag 1 can stand on its own by placing these bottom studs 1131 on the ground.

[0024] The locking member 12 is a so-called dial-type wire lock. That is, the locking member 12 has an extension 121 made of a wire. An accommodation section 210 (see FIG. 3) is provided on the upper edge of the first body 111 (hereinafter referred to as the first upper edge 21), and the extension 121 is accommodated in the accommodation section 210. In FIG. 1, the extension 121 is represented by a dotted line. The locking member 12 also has a dial female end 122 provided on one end of the extension 121 and a male end 123 provided on the other end. With the dial of the dial female end 122 set to the unlocked position, the male end 123 is inserted into the dial female end 122, and the dial is shifted from the unlocked position, so that the male end 123 cannot be removed from the dial female end 122, and the lock is established. Either the dial female end 122 or the dial male end 123 has a larger diameter than the extension portion 121, and the lock member 12 cannot be pulled out when the extension portion 121 is housed in the housing portion 210.

[0025] Fig. 3 is a diagram for explaining the state in which the locking member, whose extension portion is housed in the housing portion of the first upper edge portion, is removed from the bag body. The lockable storage bag 1 shown in Fig. 3 is placed so that the second body portion 112 faces forward. That is, the back side of the lockable storage bag 1 is shown in the same manner as Fig. 2.

[0026] In FIG. 3(A), the upper edge of the second body 112 (hereinafter referred to as the second upper edge 22) is folded back 180 degrees toward the front as indicated by the arrow in the figure. In FIG. 3(A), the second rigid body 221 provided on the back side of the second upper edge 22 is shown by folding back the second upper edge 22. The second rigid body 221 is a resin plate member having higher rigidity than the high molecular weight polyethylene fiber forming the bag body 11. That is, the bag body 11 has a strength that makes it difficult to cut with a blade, but is soft and has a certain degree of freedom in changing its shape. However, the second upper edge 22 provided with the second rigid body 221 has increased rigidity due to the second rigid body 221, making it less likely to change its shape.

[0027] 3(A) also shows a storage section 210 provided in the first upper edge portion 21. The storage section 210 is formed into a cylindrical shape by being closed by a slider-equipped fastener 2100. The slider-equipped fastener 2100 can be opened and closed by sliding a slider 2101.

[0028] FIG. 3(B) is a diagram showing the state in which the slider fastener 2100 is opened and the storage section 210 is deployed.

[0029] Fig. 3(B) shows the entirety of the locking member 12. An extension portion 121 of the locking member 12 made of a wire is covered with a cover member 124, and in Fig. 3(B), the extension portion 121 is indicated by a dotted line. The locking member 12 is fixed in the storage section 210 by a hook-and-loop fastener 212. One of the loop surface and the hook surface constituting the hook-and-loop fastener 212 (in this example, the loop surface 2121) is sewn to the inner peripheral surface of the storage section 210, and the other surface (in this example, the hook surface 2122) is sewn to the cover member 124.

[0030] By releasing the engagement of the hook-and-loop fastener 212, the locking member 12 can be removed from the bag body 11.

[0031] FIG. 3(C) is a diagram showing a state in which the locking member 12 is removed from the bag body 11. As shown in FIG.

[0032] 3(C), the first upper edge portion 21 is also provided with a first rigid body 211, which is a resin plate member for preventing deformation. Since the locking member 12 is accommodated in the accommodation portion 210 of the first upper edge portion 21, this first rigid body 211 may be omitted.

[0033] The bag body 11 shown in FIG. 3(C) is easily washable due to the locking member 12 being removed, and can also be washed in a washing machine.

[0034] The hook surface 2122 on the locking member 12 side is fixed to the loop surface 2121 on the storage section 210 side of the washed and clean bag body 11, and the slider fastener 2100 is closed, whereby the extension portion 121 is stored in the storage section 210 and the locking member 12 is attached to the bag body 11. Then, by returning the second upper edge portion 22, which was folded back, to its original state, the bag will be in the same state as the locked storage bag 1 shown in FIG.

[0035] FIG. 4(A) is a diagram showing how a bicycle helmet HL is stored in the locked storage bag 1 of this embodiment.

[0036] With the bag body 11 stretched, the opening 110 is expanded and the bicycle helmet HL is stored inside the bag body 11. Note that various items can be stored in addition to the bicycle helmet HL.

[0037] To close the opening 110, the upper portion of the bag 11 is rolled up around the lock member 12 as the axis so that the opening 110 is on the inside.

[0038] FIG. 4(B) shows the state in which a bicycle helmet HL or the like is stored in the bag body 11, the upper part of the bag body 11 is rolled up, the male end 123 is inserted into the female end 122 of the dial of the locking member 12, and the dial is then shifted to lock the bag.

[0039] 4(B), items stored in the bag 11 cannot be removed from the bag 11 unless the locking member 12 is unlocked and the bag 11 is returned to its extended state. This storage bag 1 with a lock stands on its own with its bottom 113 placed on the ground.

[0040] FIG. 5 shows an example of using a lockable storage bag that also serves as an anti-theft lock for a bicycle.

[0041] The lockable storage bag 1 of this embodiment is designed to have dimensions such that the locking member 12 can be passed through the wheel of a bicycle with the bag body 11 rolled up, and the dial female end 122 and male end 123 of the locking member 12 can be connected. In other words, the locking member 12 is given a sufficient length.

[0042] FIG. 5(A) shows the rear wheel RW of the bicycle BY with the lock member 12 passed through and both ends of the lock member 12 connected together to lock the bicycle BY.

[0043] FIG. 5B shows the state in which the lock member 12 is passed through the front wheel FW of the bicycle BY and both ends of the lock member 12 are connected together to lock the bicycle BY.

[0044] In this way, whether the lockable storage bag 1 is attached to the rear wheel RW or the front wheel FW, the following method of use is carried out.

[0045] First, a closing step is carried out in which the bag body 11 of the lockable storage bag 1 is rolled around the lock member 12 as an axis so that the opening 110 is on the inside and the opening 110 is closed.

[0046] Next, in a locking step, the locking member 12 with the bag body 11 rolled up is passed through the wheels FW, RW of the bicycle BY, and both ends of the locking member 12 are connected to each other to lock the bicycle.

[0047] As shown in Fig. 5, the bag body 11 is easily soiled by contact with the tire TR of the bicycle. In the lockable storage bag 1 of this embodiment, the locking member 12 can be removed from the bag body 11 as described above, so the bag body 11 is easy to wash and can be washed in a washing machine.

[0048] 6(A) shows the state in which the locking member 12 is passed over both the wheel RW and the frame FR of the bicycle BY, and both ends of the locking member 12 are connected and locked. By rotating the locking member 12 all the way up to the frame FR in this way, the rotation of the tire TR of the bicycle BY can be more firmly restricted. However, this also makes the bag body 11 more likely to get dirty, but as mentioned above, the bag body 11 is easy to wash, so this does not pose any problem.

[0049] FIG. 6(B) shows an example in which the locked storage bag 1 is used to store items other than a bicycle helmet while the bicycle is in motion.

[0050] The locked storage bag 1 of this embodiment shown in Fig. 6(B) is attached to the handle HD of a bicycle BY. In this usage mode, luggage can be placed in the locked storage bag 1 and carried even on a bicycle without a basket. Moreover, because it is locked with the lock member 12, it is possible to prevent damage caused by so-called hit-and-runs, in which items are stolen from the basket of a bicycle while it is in motion.

[0051] Furthermore, even if the bicycle is parked and left, the bag body 11 cannot be opened and the contents cannot be stolen, and the locked storage bag 1 itself cannot be taken away.

[0052] The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the claims. For example, the locking member is not limited to a dial-type wire lock, and may be a locking member that can be locked and unlocked by inserting a key into a keyhole, as long as both ends of the extension are connected to form a ring. The total length of the extension in the locking member is matched to the length of the opening 110, but the total length of the extension may be longer than the length of the opening 110 so that a larger ring can be formed when both ends of the extension are connected. For example, if the total length of the extension is more than twice the length of the opening 110 and is stored in a double-wrapped state, the bicycle can be tied to a building or structure such as a guardrail, and the anti-theft function of the bicycle can be further improved. Furthermore, it is preferable that the material of the bag body 11 is a material that has waterproof properties in addition to knife-proof properties, but if cost reduction is important, the knife-proof properties may be omitted.
