[0013] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description of the drawings, identical or similar parts are designated by identical or similar reference numerals. However, it should be noted that the drawings are schematic, and the dimensional ratios and the like may differ from those of the actual parts. Therefore, specific dimensions and the like should be determined with reference to the following description. Furthermore, parts in the drawings may have different dimensional relationships and ratios. In this specification and the drawings, elements having substantially the same functions and configurations are designated by the same reference numerals to avoid redundant description, and elements not directly related to the present invention are not shown.
[0014] (First embodiment) Scissors 100 according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to Figures 1 to 3. Figure 1 shows an example of the overall configuration of scissors 100 according to this embodiment, Figure 2 shows an example of a state in which scissors main body 1 according to this embodiment is housed in case 2, and Figure 3 shows an example of a state in which scissors main body 1 according to this embodiment is held by a user.
[0015] As shown in FIG. 1, scissors 100 according to this embodiment have a scissors body 1 and a case 2 for accommodating the scissors body 1.
[0016] As shown in Figure 1, an opening 23 is provided at the base portion 22 of the case. As shown in Figure 2, a user can insert the scissors body 1 into the opening 23. As shown in FIG. 2, a user can insert the case 2 containing the scissors body 1 into the package 3 that resembles a flowerpot.
[0017] As shown in FIG. 2(a), the package 3 has an upper lid 3A, a lower lid 3B, and an opening tab 3C.
[0018] As shown in FIG. 2(a), in the package 3 described above, scissors 100 are inserted into a hole 3A1 provided in the upper lid 3A and a hole 3B1 provided in the lower lid 3B.
[0019] As shown in FIG. 2(b), the user can pull down the opening tab 3C to remove the scissors 100 from the package 3 through the opening.
[0020] As shown in FIG. 1, the case 2 has a conical shape with a cross-sectional area that increases from the tip portion 21 to the base portion 22.
[0021] According to this configuration, since the case 2 has a conical shape, it is possible to easily insert the case 2 into the package 3.
[0022] Furthermore, with this configuration, since the case 2 has a conical shape, it is easy to store the scissors body 1 in the case 2 from any direction, and it is also easy to remove the scissors body 1 from the case 2.
[0023] As shown in Fig. 1, the scissors body 1 has a blade body 11 and a handle 12. The scissors body 1 according to this embodiment is assumed to be, for example, a pair of pruning scissors that can easily cut thick stems of large plants.
[0024] As shown in FIG. 1, the handle 12 has a pair of members 13 that form a portion 13A into which the user's fingers are inserted.
[0025] Here, as shown in FIG. 1, in the pair of members 13, a portion 13B on the blade body side may be open, so that the pair of members 13 is formed to imitate the shape of a leaf of a plant (for example, Monstera).
[0026] With this configuration, the user can insert his / her finger through the open portion 13B of the member 13 of the scissors body 1 when the scissors are inserted into the package 3 or the flowerpot 30 (see Figure 4 described below), and can therefore easily pull out the scissors 100 from the package 3 or the flowerpot 30.
[0027] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1, portions 13C of the pair of members 13 may overlap each other in plan view.
[0028] As shown in FIG. 3, the user can hold the scissors body 1 by placing the middle finger, ring finger, and little finger on one side of the portion 13A, the thumb on the other side of the portion 13A, and the index finger in the recess 13D located near the boundary between the blade body 11 and the handle.
[0029] According to this embodiment, the scissors 100 can be easily stored in the package 3 or the flowerpot 30.
[0030] (Second embodiment) Hereinafter, scissors 100S according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 to 7, focusing on differences from the scissors 100 according to the first embodiment described above.
[0031] 5, a scissors body 1S of scissors 100S has blades 11S and handles 12S. The scissors body 1S according to this embodiment is assumed to be, for example, gardening scissors that can easily cut through intricate areas by taking advantage of their long reach.
[0032] As shown in FIG. 5, the handle 12S has a pair of members 13S that form a portion 13AS into which the user's fingers are inserted.
[0033] As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a part 13BS of the member 13S opposite to the blade body is open, so that the member 13S is formed to resemble the shape of a plant leaf.
[0034] 5, the scissors body 1 has a curved center line C extending from the blades 11S to the handles 12S in a plan view. This configuration makes it easy to cut from above.
[0035] As shown in FIG. 7, the user can hold the scissors main body 1S by placing the middle finger and ring finger in one of the portions 13AS and the thumb in the other portion 13AS.
[0036] As shown in FIG. 4, a user inserts the case 2 containing the scissors main body 1S into a flowerpot 30 containing soil and in which a foliage plant 40 is planted.
[0037] According to this embodiment, the scissors body 1S has an organic appearance that imitates a plant, and can create a plant-like presence, so when the scissors 100S are inserted into a flower pot 30 in which a foliage plant 40 is planted, the scissors 100S blend in with the foliage plant 40.
[0038] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, by inserting the scissors 100S into the flowerpot 30 in which the ornamental plant 40 is planted, there is no need to store the scissors 100S separately, and the scissors 100S can be used immediately when caring for the ornamental plant 40.
[0039] (Third embodiment) Hereinafter, scissors 100T according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 10, focusing on differences from scissors 100 according to the first embodiment and scissors 100S according to the second embodiment described above.
[0040] 8, a scissors body 1T of scissors 100T has blades 11T and a handle 12T. The scissors body 1T according to this embodiment is assumed to be a mini scissors suitable for fine work such as pruning or harvesting plants with small leaves.
[0041] As shown in FIG. 8, the handle 12T has a pair of members 13T that form portions into which the user's fingers are inserted.
[0042] As shown in Figures 8 and 9, when viewed in a plan view, the handle 12T is formed to imitate the shape of a plant leaf by having the width of the above-mentioned member 13T become thinner and then wider as it moves away from the blade body side.
[0043] As shown in FIG. 10, the user can hold the scissors body 1T by placing the middle finger in one of the portions 13AT and the thumb in the other portion 13AT.
[0044] The scissors body 1 according to the present invention is made entirely of metal and is therefore recyclable without the need for waste separation. Therefore, the present invention contributes to reducing waste generation, which is part of SDG Goal 12, "Responsible Consumption and Production."
[0045] Although the present invention has been described in detail using the above-described embodiments, it is clear to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein. The present invention can be implemented in modified and altered forms without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the claims. Therefore, the description in this specification is intended to be illustrative and explanatory and does not have any limiting meaning on the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
