Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0004] Therefore, the following problems have occurred. (a) Since the string had to be cut and prepared according to the application each time, it was quite time-consuming. (b) The used string became waste and was discarded after one use. This was uneconomical.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0005] Attach the hooks and loops of the snap fastener to the belt-shaped string at appropriate intervals. The present invention is a belt-shaped string with a snap fastener having the above configuration.
Effects of the Invention
[0006] By joining the hooks and loops of the snap fastener attached to the belt-shaped string, it becomes possible to repeatedly make the bindings required in various agricultural operations. As a result, labor saving, speed increase, and cost reduction of agricultural operations can be achieved, which also contributes to the SDGs.
Brief Description of the Drawings
[0007] [Figure 1] This is a perspective view of this explanation. [Figure 2] This is a diagram of the specifications for the present invention. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0008] One example of an embodiment for carrying out the present invention is shown below. (i) The length of the belt-like string 1 shall be 100 to 120 cm. (b) Attach a hook 2 of hook-and-loop fastener, 2-3 cm long, to the back of the left end of the belt-like cord, then attach hook 3 of hook-and-loop fastener, 2-3 cm long, at appropriate intervals from there, then attach a loop 6 of hook-and-loop fastener, and then attach a hook 4 of hook-and-loop fastener, again at appropriate intervals, to the same back side. (H) Attach a 10-20cm long hook-and-loop fastener loop 7 to the right end surface of the ring-shaped cord, and then attach 2-3cm long hook-and-loop fastener hooks 5 to the same surface at appropriate intervals from there. Next, we will show examples of how the present invention can be used. (ii) When hanging bundles of onions, fold the belt-like string in half in the middle to create a loop, pass the left and right ends of the belt-like string through the loop to double the string and tie the onions together, then pass the string under the onions and bring it out at the top, attaching the hook-and-loop fastener loop 7 to the hook-and-loop fastener hook 2 and hanging it from the pole. (e) When tying up the cabbage to protect it from the cold, wrap a ring-shaped string around the cabbage and tie it up by connecting it to one of the hooks 2, 3, or 4 of the hook-and-loop fastener, loop 7. (H) When training plants such as eggplants and tomatoes, secure the left and right ends of the string to the support stake using hook-and-loop fasteners. If the string is not long enough, several pieces of string can be joined together. [Explanation of Symbols]
[0008] 1. Belt-like string 2, 3, 4, 5 hooks of hook-and-loop fasteners 6, 7 loops of hook-and-loop fasteners
Claims
[Claim 1] A cord for farm work, consisting of a belt-like string with one or more hook-and-loop fasteners attached.
