Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to scissors that create wrinkles in the opening of a zippered plastic bag while cutting the opening, making it easier to open the opening of the zippered plastic bag. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventional scissors only have the function of cutting paper or plastic bags including zippered plastic bags (see Patent Documents 1, 2 and 3). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 6582167 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2024-171875 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-161462 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Before explaining the problem that the invention aims to solve, the meaning of the term "zip-top plastic bag" will be explained here. A resealable plastic bag is a plastic bag used to package dried foods such as sesame seeds and dried wakame seaweed. It has a zipper near the top opening that can be opened and closed as many times as desired. Next, the problem that the invention is trying to solve has the following drawbacks. Conventional scissors only have a cutting function, so when the opening of a zippered plastic bag is cut open with conventional scissors, it is not possible to create wrinkles at the opening to make it easier to open. As a result, even if you try to open the opening of a zippered plastic bag with no wrinkles at the opening using both hands, it is very difficult to open and you often have trouble. The present invention has been made to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] Before explaining the means for solving the problems of the present invention, the meaning of the crinkle blade (5) provided on the scissors of the present invention will be explained. The creasing blade (5) is a blade that creates creasing while cutting the opening when opening a zippered plastic bag. Next, with regard to means for solving the problems, the means for solving the problems will be explained for each of the three methods for processing the wrinkle blade shown in Figs. 2 to 4. First, it is a means to solve the problem when wrinkle blade (5) processing is performed as shown in Figure 2. This is achieved by providing a gap (10) with uneven scratches on the upper blade (6) of the wrinkled blade (5) portion provided near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1), and further providing a gap (9) with uneven scratches on the lower blade (7) of the wrinkled blade (5). Next, we will discuss a means for solving the problem when the wrinkle blade (5) shown in FIG. 3 is applied. This is achieved by providing a gap (9) with uneven scratches on the lower blade only on the lower blade (7) of the wrinkled blade (5) portion provided near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1). Finally, there is a means for solving the problem when the wrinkle blade (5) shown in FIG. 4 is processed. This is achieved by providing a gap (10) with uneven scratches on the upper blade only in the wrinkled blade (5) portion provided near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1). The present invention provides scissors having the above-described configuration that make it easy to open a zippered plastic bag while unsealing it. [Effects of the Invention]

[0006] As shown in Figure 2, the scissors of the present invention, which make it easy to open zippered plastic bags while unsealing them, have a gap (10) with uneven scratches on the upper blade (6) of the wrinkled blade (5) part located near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1), and further have a gap (9) with uneven scratches on the lower blade (7) of the wrinkled blade (5). As shown in Figure 3, only the lower blade (7) in the wrinkled blade (5) portion located near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1) has a gap (9) with uneven scratches on the lower blade. As shown in Figure 4, only the upper blade (6) in the wrinkled blade (5) portion located near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1) has a gap (10) with uneven scratches on the upper blade. If you try to cut the opening of a zippered plastic bag with the wrinkled blade (5) that has gaps with uneven scratches like this, it will naturally be difficult to cut. In other words, if you try to cut it with just the wrinkled blade (5), you will end up repeatedly cutting and not cutting. And when this "cannot be cut," wrinkles can form at the opening of the zippered plastic bag. When wrinkles are made in the opening, small gaps are created here and there around the opening, making it much easier to open when trying to open it with both hands. Moreover, the scissors of the present invention not only create wrinkles in the opening to make it easier to open, but also have the function of cutting the opening at the same time, making them extremely convenient scissors that kill two birds with one stone. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0007] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is a plan view of the present invention. [Figure 2] 10 is a perspective cross-sectional view showing the structure of a wrinkle blade in which gaps with uneven scratches are provided on both the upper blade and the lower blade of the present invention. FIG. [Figure 3] FIG. 10 is a perspective cross-sectional view showing the structure of a wrinkle blade when a gap with an uneven scratch is provided only on the lower blade of the present invention. [Figure 4]FIG. 10 is a perspective cross-sectional view showing the structure of a wrinkle blade when a gap with an uneven scratch is provided only on the upper blade of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0008] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. As shown in Figure 2, a gap (10) with uneven scratches on the upper blade (6) of the wrinkled blade (5) part located near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1) is provided, and further, a gap (9) with uneven scratches on the lower blade is provided on the lower blade (7) of the wrinkled blade (5). As shown in Figure 3, a gap (9) with uneven scratches is provided only on the lower blade (7) of the wrinkled blade (5) portion provided near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1). As shown in FIG. 4, a gap (10) with uneven scratches is provided only on the upper blade (6) of the wrinkled blade (5) portion provided near the blade base (4) of the scissors body (1). The present invention has the above-described structure. When using the present invention, first insert the index finger, middle finger, and ring finger of your right hand into the first finger hole (2) of the scissors, and then insert the thumb of your right hand into the second finger hole (3). Next, the first finger hole (2) and the second finger hole (3) of the scissors are opened with each finger, and the upper blade (6) and the lower blade (7) of the scissors are opened. Next, the opening of an unopened zippered plastic bag is sandwiched between the upper blade (6) and the lower blade (7) of the opened wrinkle blade (5). Next, the first finger hole (2) and the second finger hole (3) are opened and closed multiple times with each finger, and the opening is cut using only the wrinkle blade (5). The opening "cannot be cut" and "cut" are repeated multiple times, creating wrinkles in the opening, allowing it to be opened. In this embodiment, the scissors of the present invention create wrinkles at the opening of the zippered plastic bag, creating small gaps here and there at the opening. For this reason, it is easier to open the opening if you try to open it with both hands. [Explanation of symbols]
