Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a luggage carabiner that is attached to a stroller, pet cart, or shopping cart and that can be used to hang luggage such as bags and shopping bags. [Background technology]
[0002] When using strollers or shopping carts, it is common to hang bags or shopping bags from the handlebars. In such cases, it would be convenient to attach a detachable luggage hook so that the bag can be hung on the luggage hook. For this reason, various types of luggage hooks have been proposed.
[0003] Such luggage hooks are constructed by combining an attachment part that fastens to the handlebar with an S-shaped or downward S-shaped hook part that is attached to the attachment part. The hook part is attached to the attachment part so that it can swing freely, allowing bags or the like to be hung in a desired direction (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0004] [Patent Document 1] International Publication No. 2014 / 030402 [Patent Document 2] Patent 6723594 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0005] However, depending on the position of the center of gravity of the luggage, the hook part may rotate around the rotation axis, causing the luggage to become unstable.Therefore, there are hooks that will not operate unless a certain torque is applied when the hook part rotates (see, for example, Patent Document 2).However, because the part that suspends the luggage is the hook, there is also the disadvantage that the luggage is prone to falling. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the invention of claim 1 is a luggage carabiner that can be detachably attached to a mounting part, and includes a base part, a fixing part that is attached to the base part and fixes the mounting part, and a carabiner part whose base end is attached to the base part, has an opening and a gate part that closes the opening, and has a torsion spring that biases the gate part in the direction of closing the opening, and is characterized in that the carabiner part can be freely rotated horizontally relative to the base part. [Effects of the Invention]
[0007] According to the present invention, a carabiner that prevents luggage from falling off can be operated horizontally, making it possible to provide a luggage hanger that prevents luggage from falling off even when used in a stroller or pet cart that carries a baby or pet, which can move unpredictably. [Brief explanation of the drawings]
[0008] [Figure 1] 1 is a perspective view showing a stroller to which a luggage carabiner according to one embodiment of the present invention is attached. [Figure 2] 1 is a plan view showing a luggage carabiner according to one embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 3] 1 is a perspective view showing a luggage carabiner according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. [Figure 4] A plan view showing how a luggage carabiner according to one embodiment of the present invention can rotate freely horizontally. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are examples for explaining the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention to only these embodiments. Furthermore, the present invention can be modified in various ways without departing from the gist of the present invention. Furthermore, the same components in each drawing will be designated by the same reference numerals whenever possible, and redundant explanations will be omitted.
[0010] Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a stroller K to which a luggage carabiner 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention is attached, Fig. 2 is a plan view of the luggage carabiner 1, Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the luggage carabiner 1, and Fig. 4 is a plan view showing how the luggage carabiner rotates freely horizontally. In these figures, B indicates luggage such as a bag or a shopping bag.
[0011] As shown in Figure 1, the luggage carabiner 1 is detachably attached to, for example, the handlebar (attachment part) Kh of a stroller K. The stroller K can be a shopping cart or a pet cart, and any type of stroller is acceptable. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the luggage carabiner 1 has a base end 101 at the top of the carabiner part 10, which is the main part, attached to a base part 30, and is composed of a fixed part 20 attached to an attached part 40. As shown in Figure 4, the carabiner part 10 can freely rotate in the horizontal direction R relative to the base part 30.
[0012] The torque required to rotate the carabiner part 10 in the horizontal direction R relative to the base part 30 is 5 to 40 cN·m, more preferably 10 to 35 cN·m, even more preferably 15 to 30 cN·m, and most preferably 24 cN·m.
[0013] As shown in the figure, the carabiner portion 10 has an opening 102 and a gate portion 103 that closes the opening 102, and the rotating portion 104 houses a torsion spring 105, not shown, that urges the gate portion 103 in the direction of closing the opening 102.
[0014] Although not shown, the biasing torsion spring 105 is equipped with a locking portion 106. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the locking portion 106 locks the biasing torsion spring 105 when the gate portion 103 is opened to the maximum open position. The locking mechanism of the locking portion 106 is a mechanism that locks at the maximum open position and is unlocked when a certain amount of force is further applied, and any type of mechanism may be used, including a general cam-type locking mechanism.
[0015] As shown in FIG. 2, the distance 102w between the gate portion 103 and the opening 102 that is opened to the maximum opening position is preferably 15 mm to 20 mm, and more preferably 15 mm to 16 mm.
[0016] The type of the attachment part 40 is not specified and may be a belt as shown in the figure or a hook (not shown). In the case of a belt, the belt is wrapped around the handle part Kh, providing high fixation, while in the case of a hook, although not providing fixation, it is highly convenient as it can be easily attached and detached.
