Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0004] The tool holder described in Patent Document 1 has a loop portion for inserting and supporting the blade and handle of a tool in a main body portion that can be attached to clothes. However, when carrying a tool with a large blade such as an axe, it is difficult to stably support the tool only by inserting the handle into the loop portion, and when the handle is long, the distance for pulling out the handle from the loop portion becomes long, and there is a problem that it cannot be easily taken out.
[0005] In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a holding part that enables safe and easy storage and removal of a cutting tool with a handle.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0006] The invention of the present application for solving the above problems is a protective garment having a holding part capable of holding a knife with a pattern, the holding part having a base cloth and a covering part, the base cloth being provided with a supporting part for supporting the blade part of the knife with a pattern, and the covering part being provided so as to be able to cover and open the blade part supported by the supporting part from the surface side thereof. With such a configuration, it is possible to safely and easily store and take out a knife with a pattern when carrying it.
[0007] In a preferred form of the present invention, the supporting part is a pair of bag bodies with a part of an opening facing each other, and they are provided spaced apart in the horizontal direction. With such a configuration, a T-shaped knife can be supported by the blade or the head part, and can be taken out with a minimum pulling-up length even when taking it out.
[0008] In a preferred form of the present invention, among the pair of the supporting parts, the one provided on the center line side of the protective garment is provided lower in the vertical direction. With such a configuration, the handle of the knife is escaped from the body of the wearer to the outside, and the handle does not hinder the movement of the wearer.
[0009] In a preferred form of the present invention, the covering part is fixed to the base cloth on the center line side among the sides in the vertical direction, and has a detachable stopper with the base cloth on the other sides in the vertical direction. With such a configuration, the covering part can be easily opened and closed, and the handle of the knife can be escaped to the lower side of the holding part to safely store only the blade.
[0010] In a preferred form of the present invention, it further includes a pressing part that covers the side where the covering part opens and closes. With such a configuration, it prevents the unexpected opening of the covering part and the jumping out of the tool due to vibration.
[0011] In a preferred form of the present invention, the holding part is provided at the hem part of the front body. With such a configuration, not only does the protective garment become stable, but also the blade can be safely taken out without bringing it close to the face or neck of the wearer.
[0012] The invention of the present application for solving the above problems is a holding part capable of holding a bladed tool with a handle, comprising a base cloth and a covering part. The base cloth is provided with a supporting part for supporting the blade part of the bladed tool with a handle, and the covering part is provided so as to be able to cover and open the blade part supported by the supporting part from its surface side. With such a configuration, it is possible to safely and easily store and take out a bladed tool with a handle.
[0013] In a preferred form of the present invention, a plurality of the supporting parts are provided. With such a configuration, a T-shaped bladed tool can be supported by the blade or the head part, and can be taken out with a minimum pulling-up length even when taking it out.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention
[0016] Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, the holding part X according to each embodiment of the present invention will be described. The description will detail in the order of the configuration of the embodiment, modification examples of the embodiment, method of implementation, and other examples. It should be noted that each of the embodiments shown below is an example of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. In addition, the vertical direction and the horizontal direction used in the following description are based on the axes shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 4, and the center line A is based on the axis line shown in FIG. 3.
[0017] ≪First Embodiment≫ The holding part X according to this embodiment is provided on a garment such as a protective garment Y, includes a base fabric 1 and a covering part 2, and preferably further includes a flap 3.
[0018] The ax Z (the item to be stored) is a bladed tool with a handle that is carried by the user (the wearer of the protective garment Y) while being attached to the protective garment Y by the holding part X. Also, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the ax Z is first assumed to be in the form of a double-edged blade composed of a blade part Z1 and a handle Z2, but a single-edged configuration may also be used. The form in the case of a single edge will be described later as another embodiment.
[0019] The base fabric 1 is the fabric on the protective garment Y side in the holding part X, is sewn so as to be integral with the entire protective garment Y, and determines the occupied area of the holding part X. The shape of the base fabric 1 is assumed to be rectangular as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, but may be another shape such as a trapezoid or a parallelogram according to the convenience of sewing to the protective garment Y. In addition, the base fabric 1 is formed of a material having cut resistance, such as metal fiber, aramid, or leather material. With such a configuration, the fabric of the protective garment Y is prevented from being damaged by the blade part Z1 of the ax or the like.
[0020] The base fabric 1 has a plurality of support parts for supporting the ax Z. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, two of these support parts are provided, namely a first support part 11 and a second support part 12. The first support part 11 is a flat bag-shaped member (bag body) formed by folding a cut-resistant fabric material and adhesively bonded (sewn) to the base fabric 1. The blade part Z1 of the ax Z is inserted therein, and the corner part thereof is received and supported. In particular, the first support part 11 is supported by two adjacent sides arranged in a V shape so that the corner of the blade part Z1 does not shift.
[0021] The second support portion 12, like the first support portion 11, is a flat bag-shaped member formed by folding a cloth material with cutting resistance and adhesively bonded (sewn) to the base cloth 1. The blade portion Z1 of the ax Z is inserted therein, and the corner portion thereof is received and supported. However, the corner of the blade portion Z1 is supported so as to be placed on one side. With such a configuration, even if the size and shape of the blade portion Z1 are somewhat different with respect to the first support portion 11 as a reference, the second support portion 12 can support the ax Z correspondingly.
[0022] The first support portion 11 and the second support portion 12 are basically rectangular as shown in FIG. 1. When they are further provided to be inclined with respect to each side of the base cloth 1, two sides sandwiching the lowermost vertex in the vertical direction are provided to be closed. That is, the upper side in the vertical direction is open, and the openings are provided to face each other in the horizontal direction. Thereby, the blade portion Z1 is supported from two locations.
[0023] It is preferable that the outer cloth surface that is folded and overlapped there is smaller than the cloth surface adhered to the base cloth 1 for each of the first support portion 11 and the second support portion 12. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the cloth on the outer side of the blade portion Z1 when each support portion supports the blade portion Z1 is slightly smaller than the surface adhered to the base cloth 1, and the chamfering of the corner portion is also large. With such a configuration, each support portion can be easily opened, and the blade portion Z1 can be smoothly inserted and supported.
[0024] The first support portion 11 and the second support portion 12 are provided to be separated from each other in the horizontal direction by a predetermined distance. It is preferable that this predetermined distance is about 2 to 5 times the width of the handle Z2 of the ax Z. Thereby, the blade portion Z1 is supported by the first support portion 11 and the second support portion 12, and the handle Z2 is passed through therebetween. With such a configuration, since it is not necessary to insert and support the handle Z2 through a loop, without worrying about the length of the handle Z2, the ax Z can be lifted by the depth of the first support portion 11 and the second support portion 12 and easily taken out from the holding portion X.
[0025] In particular, since the holding part X of the present invention is worn on clothing, if the distance for pulling up the ax Z is long, the blade part Z1 will be moved close to the user's face, which is dangerous. Also, at the disaster site, it is preferable to avoid blocking the field of vision more than necessary. Therefore, considering the safety advantages, a configuration in which the blade part Z1 is supported by the support part is preferable.
[0026] It is preferable that the first support part 11 and the second support part 12 have different heights for supporting the blade part Z1. In particular, when provided on clothing, as shown in FIG. 1, it is preferable that the side of the center line A is the first support part 11, and the first support part 11 is provided below the second support part 12 in the vertical direction. With such a configuration, as shown in FIG. 3, the tip of the handle Z2 faces outward and does not interfere with the user's movements such as walking. Also, even if the user's leg hits the handle Z2, the force is deflected, preventing the ax Z from being pushed up.
[0027] The base fabric 1 preferably has an upper cover 13. The upper cover 13 is a cut-resistant fabric material provided at a position covering the upper corner of the blade part Z1 supported by the support part. The lower side is fixed to the base fabric 1, and the upper side is bent to cover the corner of the blade part Z1 from above. This prevents the blade part Z1 from protruding upward from the holding part X or the user's hand or the like from accidentally contacting the blade part Z1 and getting injured.
[0028] The base fabric 1 has a base fabric side fastening part 14. The base fabric side fastening part 14 is a fastening part provided along at least one side of the base fabric 1, which enables the covering part 2 to be easily opened and closed (attached and detached). In particular, in a configuration where the holding part X is provided on the protective clothing Y, the base fabric side fastening part 14 is preferably made of a material with low thermal conductivity and high heat resistance, and a hook-and-loop fastener is an example of this.
[0029] As shown in Fig. 1, the covering part 2 is a member having substantially the same shape as the base cloth 1. It is sewn to at least one side of the base cloth 1 and is provided so as to cover the blade part Z1 supported by the first support part 11 and the second support part 12 from the surface side and to be openable and closable. Further, when being attached to the protective clothing Y, the outside of the covering part 2 is made of a cloth material similar to that of the protective clothing Y (including a laminated structure), and the inside is made of a material with the same cutting resistance as the base cloth 1. Also, as shown in Fig. 2, by closing the covering part 2, it is possible to prevent the axe Z from jumping out in a direction away from the base cloth 1.
[0030] The covering part 2 has a covering part side retaining part 21. The covering part side retaining part 21 is a retaining part provided along at least one side of the covering part 2, and enables the covering part 2 to be easily opened and closed (attached and detached) with respect to the base cloth 1. Also, in accordance with the base cloth side retaining part 14, the covering part side retaining part 21 is also constituted by a hook-and-loop fastener or the like.
[0031] In particular, for the covering part 2, it is preferable that one side on the center line A side among the sides in the vertical direction is sewn and fixed to the base cloth 1, and the covering part side retaining part 21 is provided on the other sides in the vertical direction (the outer sides shown in Fig. 1). With such a configuration, as shown in Fig. 1, the handle Z2 of the axe Z can be released downward. Also, thereby, the covering part 2 can be opened and closed in the horizontal direction and does not hinder the storage and removal of the axe Z. In addition, when the user grabs the outside of the covering part 2 and opens it in the direction of the center line A, it can be easily opened by pulling back the waist.
[0032] The flap 3 is a pressing part that closes the upper side of the bag-shaped part formed by the base cloth 1 and the covering part 2. Thereby, in addition to preventing the axe Z from jumping out above the holding part X, the whole holding part X is made to look like an ordinary pocket, improving the design of the protective clothing Y.
[0033] As shown in Fig. 3, the holding part X is provided near the hem of the protective clothing Y and holds the axe Z in a state imitating a pocket on the opposite side across the center line A.
[0034] The holding part X may have the following configuration. However, the following is an example of this embodiment, and the presence or absence of each configuration can be determined independently unless otherwise specified in terms of subordination relationship.
[0035] <<Modification example>> When the base fabric 1 and the covering part 2 can be used as a normal pocket when not storing the ax Z, the covering part side retaining part 21 is provided along at least two adjacent sides including the lowermost side of the covering part 2, corresponding to the position of the base fabric side retaining part 14, and a bag shape with an open upper part is formed by the base fabric 1 and the covering part 2.
[0036] The support part provided on the base fabric 1 may be provided at only one place. In this case, the first support part 11 may be configured to insert substantially the entire blade part Z1 and fix it with a button or a wire fastener, or the first support part 11 and the second support part 12 may be connected at the lower side and provided integrally.
[0037] The base fabric side retaining part 14 and the covering part side retaining part 21 are configured such that the base fabric 1 and the covering part 2 can be separated at a portion on the straight line through which the handle Z2 passes. For example, if the base fabric side retaining part 14 and the covering part side retaining part 21 are surface fasteners as described above, the base fabric 1 and the covering part 2 can be separated at any place, and the base fabric 1 and the covering part 2 can be connected at the remaining portions. With this configuration, when not holding the ax Z, the covering part 2 can be used in the same manner as a normal pocket, so this is the most preferable configuration. In addition, configurations using other fasteners such as cuff buttons and slide fasteners are also assumed.
[0038] As shown in FIG. 1, the base fabric side retaining part 14 and the covering part side retaining part 21 may not be provided on the entire lowermost side, and a part may be configured such that the base fabric 1 and the covering part 2 are sewn together and the covering part 2 opens in an oblique direction. Furthermore, a configuration in which a part of the first support part 11 is provided at a portion where the covering part 2 does not open is preferable with this configuration. With such a configuration, even if the first support part 11 is damaged in a state where the ax Z is held, the base fabric 1 and the covering part 2 can prevent the ax Z from falling and prevent the user from being injured.
[0039] The sewing thread that stitches the first support part 11, the second support part 12, and the base fabric side fixing part 14 to the base fabric 1 is preferably of a different color (especially lightness and chroma) from each part. With such a configuration, it becomes easier for the user to visually recognize the positions of the respective parts, assisting in the insertion and removal of the axe Z.
[0040] As shown in FIG. 3, when providing the holding part X on clothing such as the protective clothing Y, it is preferable that the holding part X has a configuration in which a part extends around to the back body rather than being entirely provided on the front body. With such a configuration, the base fabric 1 and the covering part 2 can be bent along the user's body and pressed against the axe Z to be more closely attached, so that the axe Z is stabilized during carrying.
[0041] The holding part X may have a configuration in which the form shown in FIG. 1 is reversed left and right. However, in that case, the "center line side" and "outer side" shown in FIG. 1 are also reversed left and right.
[0042] Hereinafter, the implementation method of the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Also, the implementation method shown below is an example, and the implementation method is not limited to this, and the order may be reversed.
[0043] ≪Implementation Method≫ When the user stores the axe Z in the holding part X, first, the user opens the flap 3 and the covering part 2 in order from the base fabric 1 to make the first support part 11 and the second support part 12 visible.
[0044] Next, the user opens the openings of the first support part 11 and the second support part 12 respectively, inserts and supports the blade part Z1 of the axe Z into each support part. At this time, the axe Z is oriented such that the handle Z2 is positioned between the first support part 11 and the second support part 12. Further, the user covers one of the corners of the blade part Z1 with the upper cover 13.
[0045] After that, while supporting the handle Z2 so that the axe Z does not pop out of the holding part X, the user covers the covering part 2 over the base fabric 1 and closes the base fabric side fixing part 14 and the covering part side fixing part 21 together to form a bag shape. Further, the user closes the flap 3 and confirms that the blade part Z1 is completely covered by the holding part X.
[0046] When the user takes out the axe Z from the holding part X, first open it from the base cloth 1 in the order of the flap 3 and the covering part 2, and then lift the lower edge of the handle Z2 or the blade part Z1. At this time, by lifting the axe Z by the depth of each support part, the axe Z can be easily taken out.
[0047] Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, the holding part X according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. For the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals will be used and the description will be omitted.
[0048] ≪Second Embodiment≫ In the holding part X according to the present embodiment, the second support part 12 is a protrusion protruding in a direction away from the surface of the base cloth 1. As shown in FIG. 4, the second support part 12 is provided at two positions with different heights, one on each of the left and right sides of the handle Z2, so as to prevent the held axe Z from rotating. Note that the blade part Z1 is supported with its corner inserted into the first support part 11.
[0049] The second support part 12 preferably has a shape that tapers in the middle and has a large tip in the protruding direction. With such a configuration, each part of the axe Z is locked and supported by the second support part 12, and it can be carried more stably.
[0050] Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, the implementation method of the present embodiment will be described in detail. In addition, the implementation method shown below is an example, and the implementation method is not limited to this, and the order may be reversed.
[0051] ≪Implementation Method≫ When holding the axe Z, the user first opens the covering part 2 to make each support part visible, then passes the handle Z2 of the axe Z between the second support parts 12, and further inserts the blade part Z1 into the first support part 11 to support the axe Z.
