Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] For that reason, there were the following problems. It relates to a vacuum cleaner equipped with a strap to be hung from the shoulder and usable in a shoulder-mounted form. There is no stick-type vacuum cleaner equipped with a strap to be hung from the shoulder, and there was no shoulder strap to be attached to a stick-type vacuum cleaner to reduce the weight burden. There are many products for shoulder straps, but a strap for lightweight objects with elasticity for attaching to smartphones, wallets, keys, etc. does not have the elastic force to be attached to a stick-type vacuum cleaner and hung. A shoulder strap for heavy loads is an auxiliary strap used when lifting or carrying a load, and there was no shoulder strap to be attached to a stick-type vacuum cleaner used by repeatedly moving the hand back and forth. The present invention has been made to solve this problem.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0005] The present invention relates to a shoulder strap for a stick-type vacuum cleaner, comprising a first strap with adjustable length and a second strap with elasticity. The ends of each of the first strap and the second strap are connected to each other. The second strap is configured to be attachable to the gripping portion of the stick-type vacuum cleaner at the central portion in its longitudinal direction. It is a shoulder strap for a stick-type vacuum cleaner characterized by this. Moreover, as a configuration enabling attachment in the second strap of the shoulder strap for a stick-type vacuum cleaner of the present invention, it is desirable to provide a hook-and-loop fastener and attach it to the gripping portion of the stick-type vacuum cleaner with the hook-and-loop fastener. Furthermore, the elasticity of the second strap preferably exhibits elasticity between 15 centimeters and 35 centimeters when a 2-kilogram stick-type vacuum cleaner is attached to the shoulder strap and hung with the suction port of the vacuum cleaner against the floor. The outline of the present invention is to provide an adjustable length portion with a length adjuster at the upper part of the shoulder strap, a stretchable portion with elasticity for hanging the stick-type vacuum cleaner at the lower part, and a fixture for attaching to the portion gripped by the hand of the stick-type vacuum cleaner at the lower tip of the stretchable portion. Note that, as needed, a fastener for attaching the shoulder strap is attached to the portion gripped by the hand of the stick-type vacuum cleaner for use. It is a shoulder strap for a stick-type vacuum cleaner characterized by the above.

Advantages of the Invention

[0006] It can disperse the weight of the vacuum cleaner applied to the gripping portion to the shoulder and reduce the burden on the fingers, hands, and arms.

[0007] Also, during use, the arm is moved back and forth, and it was necessary to continuously hold the gripping portion firmly by hand so that the stick-type vacuum cleaner does not fall. However, by wearing the shoulder strap, it is also possible to use the stick-type vacuum cleaner by pressing the palm of the hand against the gripping portion and pushing it forward, and the burden on the hand for firmly gripping can be reduced.

[0008] In addition, even when both hands are released, the stick-type vacuum cleaner stays hanging on the shoulder strap, so that operations such as moving the chair during use can be performed with both hands without having to place the stick-type vacuum cleaner on the floor every time.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0010] The present invention is a shoulder strap for a stick-type vacuum cleaner, which comprises a strap (first strap) provided with a length adjustment part having a length adjuster and a strap (second strap) provided with an elastic part. The two ends of each strap are connected by a locking tool, with the strap side provided with the length adjustment part on the upper side, sandwiching the mounting tool provided at the central part of the elastic part, the elastic part has a bifurcated shape of two strands and is elastic, and is characterized in that it is mounted on a fastener previously attached to the stick-type vacuum cleaner by the mounting tool. Moreover, the present invention is a shoulder strap for a stick-type vacuum cleaner, which comprises a strap (first strap) provided with a length adjustment part having a length adjuster, and a strap (second strap) provided with an elastic part. The two ends of each strap are connected by a fastener. The side of the strap provided with the length adjustment part is placed on the upper part, and the wearing tool provided at the central part of the elastic part is sandwiched. The elastic part has a bifurcated shape with two strands and is elastic, and is characterized in that it is provided with a mounting part that can be directly mounted on the grip part of the stick-type vacuum cleaner without attaching a fastener. Hereinafter, the embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described. (a) Connect a strap (first strap) provided with a length adjustment part (3) having a feed tube (4) and a strap (second strap) provided with an elastic part (7) at two locations of the respective ends (see Fig. 1). (b) Provide a mounting collar (8) at the central part of the elastic part (7). (c) The shoulder strap (1) is mounted on the fastener (2) attached to the grip part (13) of the stick-type vacuum cleaner (12) by the mounting collar (8) (see Fig. 5). The present invention has the above-described configuration.

[0011] The shoulder strap (1) connecting the length adjustment part (3) and the elastic part (7) has the length adjustment part (3) at the upper part and the elastic part (7) at the lower part. The perimeter of the shoulder strap (1) is preferably set so that when it is obliquely hung on the shoulder and neck, the mounting collar (8) is at the waist position. The length is adjusted according to the height and build using the feed tube (4) of the length adjustment part. However, it is desirable that the elastic part (7), which is important for distributing the weight of the stick-type vacuum cleaner during use, has a sufficient elastic length.

[0012] The length adjustment part (3) is preferably belt-shaped, but the material and shape are not limited as long as the length can be adjusted. The material of the elastic part (7) including the elastic part provided with the mounting collar (8) may be made of rubber or cloth woven with an elastic material, and the material and shape are not limited. Also, the feed tube (4) provided in the length adjustment part (3) may be any adjuster that can adjust the length, and the material and shape are not limited.

[0013] The connection between the length adjustment part (3) and the telescopic part (7) of the shoulder strap (1) may be made by providing corner brackets at both ends of the length adjustment part (3) and using locking devices such as hook-and-loop fasteners at both ends of the telescopic part (7), and is not limited to the connection form shown in Fig. 1.

[0014] The fastener (2) is attached for mounting the shoulder strap (1) to the gripping part (13) of the stick-type cleaner (12) (see Fig. 2). The fastener fitting (9) and the hook-and-loop fastener part (11) of the illustrated fastener (2) are examples of fasteners, and the form, etc. is not limited.

[0015] The shoulder strap (1) shown in Figs. 3 and 4 is in a form where a hook-and-loop fastener part is provided at the lower tip of the telescopic part (7) and can be directly mounted on the gripping part (13) of the stick-type cleaner without using the fastener (2). The method of mounting to the stick-type cleaner is not limited to Figs. 1 and 2. Also, the part for gripping the stick-type cleaner is not only the shape of the gripping part (13), but although not shown in the figure, there are also rod-shaped shapes, etc., and it can be mounted on various gripping part shapes of the stick-type cleaner, and the fastener (2) does not have to be used.

[0016] The strength of the contraction force of the telescopic part (7) is such that when the shoulder strap (1) is hung on the shoulder and neck, the height of the mounting hook (8) is between the height of the mounting hook (8) when a 2-kilogram stick-type cleaner is hung with the suction port attached to the floor in the same state as during use, and extends and stays between 15 centimeters and 35 centimeters.

[0017] When using the shoulder strap (1) (see Fig. 6), since the arm moves back and forth or the posture changes, it is desirable to hang it diagonally on the shoulder and neck so that it is difficult to come off. The length adjustment is made according to the weight of the stick-type cleaner, the height and build of the user, etc. The guideline is that when the shoulder strap (1) is hung diagonally and drooped, the height of the mounting hook (8) is adjusted to a length between the wrist near the elbow and the elbow in the posture of hanging the arm.

[0018] In addition, the shorter the length of the shoulder strap (1), the less the weight burden of the vacuum cleaner on the fingers, hands, and arms. However, it is more desirable to adjust the length by comprehensively considering factors such as ease of use when moving the arm back and forth, ease of use when bending the waist into a low posture, and the degree of reduction in the burden on the fingers, hands, and arms.
