Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a measuring stationery tool suitable for cutting thin, easily processable sheet-like materials such as paper and vinyl (hereinafter simply referred to as paper) into straight lines. [Background technology]

[0002] Traditionally, one of the ways to process paper is to cut it in a straight line, and the cutting method has been to use a metal ruler or a ruler with a stainless steel cover, which do not chip the cutter blade. A characteristic of this type of cutting aid is that it generally requires an aid of the same length as the length to be cut.

[0003] To achieve more precise and concise cuts, tools that use rail-like grooves to precisely cut paper are often used, but all of these have the problem that they are large, unsuitable for portability, and can only cut to a fixed length.

[0004] The cutter disclosed in Patent Document 1 attempts to solve this problem by attaching a cross-shaped part to the L-shaped hook at the end of a tape measure (a measuring instrument with a graduated band that rewinds with a spring when released; also known as a tape measure), and incorporating a retractable cutter blade. Due to its characteristics, it requires a dedicated tape measure, and has problems such as not being able to specify the exact length when cutting, and not being able to cut from the middle.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication No. 2012-163513 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] To provide a measuring stationery tool that is compatible with most commercially available measuring tapes and allows accurate and free machining from any position on the tape to any position on the tape. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] To achieve the above object, the measuring tool of the present invention has a retractable scale band, and enables long-distance processing by attaching an operating tool to a clamping body that clamps the scale band of the measuring tool from above and below.

[0008] The measuring tape stationery of the present invention comprises an upper roller as the clamping body, an operating tool, and a button part having a non-slip surface for a finger, a concave body having a concave hole for fitting, and a convex body having a convex protrusion for fitting and a hole through which the lower roller as the clamping body and the button part can pass, and has a structure in which the concave body and the convex body are fitted together to clamp the scale band of the measuring tape from the left and right, and the upper roller of the button part and the lower roller of the convex body can clamp the scale band of the measuring tape from above and below.

[0009] Furthermore, the measuring stationery has an upper stopper and a lower stopper that can be fitted together, and the scale band of the measuring tape can be fixed by fitting together from above and below, and has a stopper part that has a structure that can be fitted with a body part that fits together the concave body and the convex body.

[0010] The machine is provided with a pair of left and right tires and the body part with a mark that can be used as a reference when determining the processing length, the button part with a mark that can be used as a reference when processing directly above the working tool, and the stopper part with an anti-slip bottom surface and a mark that can be used as a reference when processing and when determining the processing length, and during processing, the position of the working tool on the button part is determined by the marks on the button part and the marks on the stopper part, the processing length is determined by the marks on the stopper part and the body part, and by sliding the body part up to the stopper, linear processing can be performed by the working tool on the button part.

[0011] The present invention has a structure in which the button portion and the operating tool are fastened with a screw and a nut, thereby making it possible to replace the operating tool portion. [Effects of the Invention]

[0012] The present invention has the above-described structure, and therefore can achieve more accurate and flexible straight line cutting using a commercially available tape measure. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0014] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The following describes embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following drawings, the same components are designated by the same reference numerals, and redundant explanations may be omitted.

[0015] Figure 1 is an overall perspective view of an example of the measuring tool of the present invention when in use. As shown in the figure, the measuring tool of the present invention is used by sandwiching the measuring tape 3 between the body part 1 and the stopper part 2.

[0016] As shown in FIG. 2, the body is roughly divided into three parts: a button part 4, a convex body 15, and a concave body 25, and the convex body 15 and the concave body 25 are fitted together.

[0017] 3 and 4 are exploded perspective views showing the detailed structure of the body, and Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the body 1 and button 4 when viewed from the rear. The convex body 15 has a three-stage structure consisting of an upper convex body stage 21, a middle convex body stage 11, and a lower convex body stage 12, and has holes 24a and 24b for attaching a right front tire 13, a right rear tire 14, and a lower roller 23 with a lower roller shaft 22.

[0018] The upper section 21 of the convex body has a circular hole for inserting the button cylinder 6 and a slit-shaped hole for inserting the anti-rotation plate 5. By inserting the button part 4 through these holes, it is possible to prevent rotational movement while allowing the button part 4 to move up and down.

[0019] Furthermore, convex body middle section 11 has the function of automatically returning button section 4 to its original position when the finger is released after pressing it in, and by drilling a circular hole slightly smaller than the hole in convex body upper section 21, the spring 9 inserted into spring groove 16 is caught on convex body middle section 11 while allowing upper roller support column 19 to pass through. In this way, when button section 4 is pressed, the compressed spring 9 returns to its original state as soon as the hand is released, pushing up button section 4.

[0020] The convex body lower section 12 is structured to support the lower roller 23, and has a rounded square hole that matches the size of the lower roller 23.

[0021] Furthermore, the convex body middle section 11 and the convex body lower section 12 have protrusions that can fit into holes in the concave body 25, and can be fixed at a width that is exactly the same as the width of the scale band 3 of any commercially available tape measure. In this case, the width of the convex body upper section 21 is longer than the convex body middle section 11 and the convex body lower section 12, so it can be caught on the upper part of the concave body 25, making it more stable when in use.

[0022] In addition, the sides of the convex body lower section 12 and the convex body 15 protrude further forward than the convex body upper section 21 and the convex body middle section 11, which makes the tape measure's scale band 3 more stable when mated with the concave body 25, making it easier to read.

[0023] The side of the convex body 15 has a slit for passing the cutter blade support 20 through, a hole 24b for passing the lower roller shaft 22 through, and holes for attaching the right front tire 13 and right rear tire 14, which are used to attach the tires. Each tire consists of three parts, with the right front tire 13 consisting of a wheel 13a, axle 13b, and fastener 13c.

[0024] The concave fuselage 25 has fitting holes for the convex fuselage middle section 11 and the convex fuselage lower section 12, holes for attaching the left front tire 26 and the left rear tire 27, as well as slit-shaped holes for passing the anti-rotation plate 5 through.

[0025] Figure 6 is an overall perspective view of the button part 4, and Figure 7 is an exploded perspective view of the button part 4. The button part 4 is composed of an anti-rotation plate 5, a button cylinder 6 with a non-slip surface to prevent fingers from slipping, a cutter blade support 20, a tilt stopper 17 to prevent the button part from tilting left or right, and a cutter blade 8.

[0026] There is a spring groove 16 on the back side of the button cylinder 6, which connects to an upper roller support cylinder 19. The upper roller support cylinder 19 has a rounded square hole that matches the size of the upper roller 18, and holes 19a and 19b on the side of the cylinder for attaching an upper roller shaft 19c, so that the upper roller 18 can be attached.

[0027] In the cutter blade 8, the metal blade 8b is fastened with a small bolt 8a and a small nut 8c, so that the metal blade 8b can be replaced at any time.

[0028] FIG. 8 is an exploded perspective view showing the detailed structure of the stopper portion. The stopper portion 2 is made up of an upper stopper portion 28 and a lower stopper portion 29. As shown in FIG.

[0029] In addition, to ensure accurate cutting, there are equilateral triangular body scale mark 10, button blade mark 7, stopper scale mark 28a, and stopper blade mark 28b.

[0030] An example of use will now be described. When the button part 4 is pressed down and the scale band 3 of the tape measure is pinched between the upper roller 18 and the lower roller 23, the cutting edge of the cutter blade 8 can be confirmed by the scale mark 10 on the body part.

[0031] The scale band 3 of the measure is clamped at an arbitrary position using the stopper part 2, and the body part 1 is slid until it hits the stopper part 2 while pressing down the button part 4, and the position of the stopper part scale mark 28a becomes the cutting end point by the cutter blade 8.

[0032] By aligning the line segment to be cut with the tip of the equilateral triangle of the mark 7 for the button part blade and the mark 28b for the stopper part blade, the line segment can be cut by the length of the measuring tape scale without blurring the cutter blade 8.

[0033] The present invention can be used not only for measuring tape but also for thin strips with a certain degree of hardness. It can also be used as a cutter that can cut by pushing and sliding without clamping with rollers.

[0034] Furthermore, by replacing the cutter blade 8 with another tool such as a writing implement or glue, it is possible to apply it to a variety of uses, including not only straight cutting but also long-distance processing such as drawing lines, applying glue, and marking.
