Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an article holder that enables an article to be carried by being attached to a harness-type safety belt having a pair of shoulder belts that are respectively wrapped around both shoulders of a wearer. [Background technology]

[0002] 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known an article holder that holds an article or small item such as a tool on a belt such as a safety belt worn by a worker (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0003] This device comprises a holder body having an item holding portion that removably holds an item such as a tool, and an insertion member that is inserted into a first opening and a second opening formed in the holder body and engaged and held by the holder body.

[0004] When the holder body is brought into contact with the outer surface of the belt and the insertion member is inserted into the holder body, the belt is sandwiched between the holder body and the insertion member, and the holder body is fixed to the belt.

[0005] A safety belt is equipped with a lifeline connected thereto, the end of which is provided with a hook. When the lifeline is not in use, it is necessary to temporarily fasten the hook of the lifeline to a belt or the like.

[0006] The above-mentioned conventional holder body has a ring portion on the lower side thereof. The ring portion is designed to allow other object holders or other objects to be hung from it. Therefore, when the lifeline is not in use, it is conceivable to hang the hook of the lifeline on the ring portion on the lower side of the holder body. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0007] [Patent Document 1] JP 2018-176378 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0008] However, when attempting to hang a lifeline on the ring portion provided on the underside of the article holding portion, the article holding portion gets in the way and makes it difficult to attach or remove the lifeline smoothly.

[0009] In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide an article holder that can hang a hook attached to the end of a lifeline extending from a safety belt in a position that does not interfere with work, and that allows the hook of the lifeline to be smoothly attached and detached. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides an article holder that enables an article to be carried by being attached to a harness-type safety belt having a pair of shoulder belts that are respectively wrapped around both shoulders of a wearer, the article holder comprising an article holding member for holding an article to be carried, a holder body that is fixed to the shoulder belts by removably connecting the article holding member, and a hook fastening member for hanging a hook provided at the tip of a lifeline extending from the safety belt. In the article holder, The hook retaining member is The hook retaining member To the holder body To install and a hook hook portion that is provided on the attachment portion and exposed laterally outward of the shoulder belt.

[0011] According to the present invention, when the article holder is attached to the shoulder belt of the harness-type safety belt, the hook attachment portion of the hook retaining member attached to the holder body is exposed laterally outward from the shoulder belt. This allows the lifeline to be smoothly attached to and detached from the hook attachment portion without the holder body or the article holding member getting in the way when the lifeline is hooked to the hook attachment portion.

[0012] In addition, in the present invention, the holder main body is fixed to the shoulder belt by a fixed base that fits into the holder main body via the shoulder belt, and the fixed base has a base side abutment portion that abuts against the shoulder belt and a pair of claw portions of the same shape that protrude from both sides of the base side abutment portion, and the holder main body has a main body side abutment portion that abuts against the shoulder belt and a pair of engaging holes formed at positions corresponding to each of the claw portions and into which each of the claw portions fits.

[0013] According to this, the fixed base can be easily connected to the holder body by simply fitting the pair of claws of the fixed base into the pair of fitting holes of the holder body, respectively. At this time, the shoulder belt is sandwiched between the fixed base and the holder body, and the holder body is firmly fixed to the shoulder belt. This allows the hook retaining member attached to the holder body to be firmly fixed to the shoulder belt.

[0014] In one specific embodiment of the hook fastening member of the present invention, the mounting portion of the hook fastening member is formed into a shape that engages with the outer periphery of the holder body. The hook fastening member is attached to the holder body by engaging the attachment portion with the outer periphery of the holder body. It is characterized by the fact that

[0015] The attachment portion engages with the outer periphery of the holder body, so that the holder body and the hook locking member can be integrally configured. Furthermore, by making the outer periphery of the holder body and the corresponding inner periphery of the attachment portion symmetrical, the hook locking member can be rotated clockwise or counterclockwise with respect to the holder body, so that, for example, the hook hanging portion located on the right side can be moved to the left side. This allows the hook hanging portion to be exposed in the desired direction according to the left and right position of the shoulder belt, regardless of whether the shoulder belt is left or right.

[0016] Moreover, even if the hook engaging member is damaged, the damage will not extend to the holder body, and the holder body can be maintained firmly fixed to the shoulder belt.

[0017] In this case, it is preferable that the attachment portion of the hook fastening member further includes a pair of belt insertion portions through which the shoulder belt is inserted at upper and lower positions of the holder body.

[0018] By passing the shoulder belt through the belt insertion portion, the attachment state of the attachment portion of the hook fastening member to the holder body can be further strengthened.

[0019] In addition, as another aspect of the hook retaining member of the present invention, the hook retaining member is characterized in that the mounting portion is formed integrally with the fixed base, and the hook retaining portion is connected to the outside of one of the claw portions.

[0020] According to the present invention, for example, by forming two claws of the same shape to be positioned on the left and right sides of the base-side abutment part of the fixed base, if a hook hook part is provided adjacent to the outside of the claw part located on the right side, the hook hook part located on the right side can be moved to the left side simply by rotating the fixed base to switch the positions of the left and right claw parts. This makes it possible to expose the hook hook part in a desired direction according to the left and right position of the shoulder belt, regardless of whether the shoulder belt is left or right.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0022] First, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 1 to Fig. 6. Fig. 1 shows the appearance of an article holder 1 of the first embodiment. The article holder 1 includes a holder main body 2, an article holding member 3, and a hook fastening member 4.

[0023] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the holder body 2 is attached to a flat, belt-like shoulder belt 5 that extends vertically. The shoulder belts 5 are provided on a harness-type safety belt (not shown), and a pair of shoulder belts are provided on the left and right sides to be placed around each of the wearer's shoulders. Figures 2 and 3 show the article holder 1 with the article holding members 3 removed.

[0024] As shown in Fig. 4, an upper regulating abutment portion 6 and a lower regulating abutment portion 7 are provided on the rear side of the holder main body 2. The upper regulating abutment portion 6 and the lower regulating abutment portion 7, through which the shoulder belt 5 passes, slightly bend the shoulder belt 5 in its thickness direction at the upper and lower edges of the holder main body 2, thereby restricting the sliding movement of the holder main body 2 in the up and down direction relative to the shoulder belt 5. A fixed base 8 (see Figs. 3 and 5), which will be described later, is fitted onto the rear side of the holder main body 2.

[0025] 5, the article holding member 3 is detachable from the holder main body 2. The article holding member 3 includes a fixing part 9 for fixing to the back side of an article (not shown), and an insertion part 11 formed integrally with the fixing part 9 and inserted into an upper opening 10 of the holder main body 2. Examples of articles held by the article holding member 3 include a pouch (small storage case) for storing small items such as writing implements, a case for attaching to a smartphone, other tools, etc.

[0026] The article holding member 3 is guided by the insertion portion 11 when inserted into the upper opening 10 of the holder main body 2. A pair of resiliently bending arm portions 12 are provided on both sides of the insertion portion 11 below the fixing portion 9, with a gap between them and the insertion portion 11. An engagement portion 13 is integrally provided at the tip of each arm portion 12. The engagement portion 13 engages with an engagement hole 14 of the holder main body 2 from the inside, and is released from engagement with the engagement hole 14 by pressing the engagement portion 13 exposed from the engagement hole 14 from the outside of the engagement hole 14.

[0027] The hook retaining member 4 includes an attachment portion 15 for attachment to the holder body 2 and a hook retaining portion 16 provided integrally with the attachment portion 15.

[0028] 2 and 5, the mounting portion 15 is formed in a substantially rectangular ring shape surrounding the outer periphery of the holder body 2 in correspondence with the holder body 2 which is substantially rectangular in front view. The front view outline shape of the holder body 2 is symmetrical, and the corresponding mounting portion 15 also has a symmetrical inner periphery shape.

[0029] The hook hanging portion 16 is formed in a size that allows a lifeline hook to be hung thereon, and is provided on one side edge of the attachment portion 15 and exposed laterally outward of the shoulder belt 5 as shown in FIG.

[0030] Furthermore, the hook retaining member 4 is provided with a pair of upper and lower belt insertion parts 17. The shoulder belt 5 is inserted into the belt insertion parts 17. As a result, the hook retaining member 4 and the holder main body 2 are integrally fixed to the shoulder belt 5.

[0031] The fixed base 8 has a base-side contact portion 18 in the shape of a horizontally long plate that contacts the shoulder belt 5. On each side of the base-side contact portion 18, a pair of claw portions 19 of the same shape (bilaterally symmetrical shape) are formed so as to protrude from the rear surface of the holder main body 2, which faces each other.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 4, a main body side contact portion 20 is provided on the rear surface of the holder main body 2 to contact the shoulder belt 5 and sandwich the shoulder belt 5 between itself and a base side contact portion 18 of the fixed base 8. As shown in FIG.

[0033] 4 and 5, a pair of fitting holes 21 are formed on both sides of the holder body 2. These fitting holes 21 are formed at positions corresponding to the claw portions 19 of the fixed base 8, respectively, and are shaped so that either of the pair of claw portions 19 can be fitted into the fitting holes.

[0034] When attaching the article holder 1 to the shoulder belt 5, first, the holder body 2 is positioned on the front side of the shoulder belt 5, and the shoulder belt 5 is passed through the upper and lower regulating abutment portions 6 and 7 on the rear side.

[0035] Next, the claw portions 19 of the fixed base 8 are fitted into the fitting holes 21 on the back side of the holder main body 2. As a result, the shoulder belt 5 is clamped between the main body side contact portion 20 of the holder main body 2 and the base side contact portion 18 of the fixed base 8, and the holder main body 2 is fixed to the shoulder belt 5.

[0036] Next, the mounting portion 15 of the hook retaining member 4 is engaged from the back side (the side where the fixed base 8 is attached) of the holder body 2. Furthermore, the shoulder belt 5 is passed through the pair of upper and lower belt insertion portions 17, and attached to the holder body 2.

[0037] When the mounting portion 15 of the hook retaining member 4 is attached to the holder body 2, the hook retaining portion 16 of the hook retaining member 4 is exposed laterally outward of the shoulder belt 5 as shown in FIG.

[0038] For example, when the article holder 1 is attached to the shoulder belt 5 that is looped around the right shoulder of the safety belt wearer, the hook retaining member 4 can be attached so that the hook hanging part 16 is exposed on the right arm side of the wearer outside the shoulder belt 5, as shown in Fig. 2. By exposing the hook retaining member 4 on the outside of the shoulder belt 5, there is less interference with the surroundings when hooking the hook to the hook hanging part 16, and the lifeline can be smoothly attached and detached from the hook hanging part 16.

[0039] Furthermore, since the hook retaining member 4 has a symmetrical rectangular shape, the attachment direction to the holder body 2 can be easily changed. The exposed direction of the hook retaining member 4 to the shoulder belt 5 (to the holder body 2) can be changed by reversing the attachment direction to the holder body 2 from left to right (rotating clockwise or counterclockwise).

[0040] For example, when the article holder 1 is attached to the shoulder belt 5 that is looped around the left shoulder of the safety belt wearer, in the hook retaining member 4, the attachment part 15 may be attached to the holder body 2 so that the hook hanging part 16 is exposed on the left arm side, as shown in Fig. 6. This also reduces interference with the surroundings when hanging a hook on the hook hanging part 16, and allows the lifeline to be smoothly attached to and detached from the hook hanging part 16.

[0041] Furthermore, in the article holder 1 of the first embodiment, as shown in Fig. 5, the hook fastening member 4 is formed separately from the holder main body 2. As a result, even if the hook fastening member 4 is damaged and falls off the shoulder belt 5, the holder main body 2 is not affected and the fixed state to the shoulder belt 5 is maintained.

[0042] Furthermore, although the hook hanging member 4 is formed separately from the holder main body 2, the attachment portion 15 engages with the outer periphery of the holder main body 2, and the shoulder belt 5 passing through the belt insertion portion 17 securely supports the hook hanging member 4, so that the hook hanging member 4 and the holder main body 2 form an integral structure and are fixed to the shoulder belt 5 with relatively high strength.

[0043] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 7 to 11. Fig. 7 shows the appearance of an article holder 100 of the second embodiment. The article holder 100 comprises a holder body 101, an article holding member 102, and a ring portion 103. Furthermore, a hook hanging portion 105 of a hook hanging member 104 described later is provided on one side of the holder body 101.

[0044] The holder body 101 is attached to a flat belt-like shoulder belt 106 extending in the vertical direction, as shown in Fig. 8. As in the first embodiment described above, the shoulder belts 106 are provided in a harness-type safety belt (not shown), and a pair of shoulder belts are provided on the left and right sides to be hung around each of the wearer's shoulders. Fig. 8 shows the article holder 100 of the second embodiment with the article holding member 102 removed.

[0045] 9, an upper regulating abutment portion 107 and a lower regulating abutment portion 108 are provided on the back side of the holder main body 101 of the second embodiment. The upper regulating abutment portion 107 and the lower regulating abutment portion 108 allow the shoulder belt 106 to pass through and slightly bend the shoulder belt 106 in its thickness direction at the upper and lower edges of the holder main body 101, thereby restricting the sliding movement of the holder main body 101 in the up and down direction relative to the shoulder belt 106.

[0046] A fixed base 109 (see FIG. 10), which will be described later, is fitted onto the rear side of the holder body 101.

[0047] As shown in Fig. 10, the article holding member 102 is detachable from the holder main body 2. The article holding member 102 includes a fixing part 110 that is fixed to the back side of an article, and an insertion part 112 that is formed integrally with the fixing part 110 and is inserted into an upper opening 111 of the holder main body 101. Examples of articles that the article holding member 102 holds include a pouch (small storage case) for storing small items such as writing implements, a case for attaching to a smartphone, and other tools. The ring part 103 is provided for hanging other relatively light and small articles.

[0048] On both sides of the insertion portion 112 of the article holding member 102, there are provided an elastically bending arm portion 113 and an engagement portion 114 formed integrally with the tip of the arm portion 113. The engagement portion 114 engages with an engagement hole 115 of the holder body 101 from the inside, and the engagement portion 114 exposed from the engagement hole 115 is released from the engagement with the engagement hole 115 by pressing the engagement portion 114 exposed from the engagement hole 115 from the outside of the engagement hole 115.

[0049] The hook hanging member 104 includes a hook hanging portion 105, and a hook provided at the tip of a lifeline (not shown) is hung on the hook hanging portion 105. Therefore, the hook hanging portion 105 of the hook hanging member 104 is formed to a size that allows the hook of the lifeline to be hung. As shown in FIG. 10, the hook hanging portion 105 is connected to one side edge of the fixed base 109 (located outside a claw portion 117 described below). That is, in the second embodiment, the hook hanging member 104 is composed of the fixed base 109 and the hook hanging portion 105. Therefore, the fixed base 109 functions as an attachment portion for the hook hanging member 104.

[0050] The fixed base 109 has a horizontally long plate-like base-side contact portion 116 that contacts the shoulder belt 106. On each side of the base-side contact portion 116, a pair of claw portions 117 of the same shape (bilaterally symmetrical shape) are formed so as to protrude toward the opposing surface of the back surface of the holder main body 101.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 9, the holder main body 101 has, on its rear surface, a main body side abutment portion 118 that abuts against the shoulder belt 106 and clamps the shoulder belt 106 between itself and a base side abutment portion 116 of the fixed base 109 .

[0052] 9 and 10, a pair of fitting holes 119 are formed on both sides of the holder body 101. These fitting holes 119 are formed at positions corresponding to the claw portions 117 of the fixed base 109, respectively, and are shaped so that either of the pair of claw portions 117 can be fitted into the fitting holes.

[0053] When attaching the article holder 100 to the shoulder belt 106, first, the holder body 101 is positioned on the front side of the shoulder belt 106, and the shoulder belt 106 is passed through the upper and lower regulating abutments 107 and 108 on the rear side.

[0054] Next, the claws 117 of the fixed base 109 are fitted into the fitting holes 119 on the back side of the holder body 101. As a result, the shoulder belt 106 is clamped between the body-side contact portion 118 of the holder body 101 and the base-side contact portion 116 of the fixed base 109, and the holder body 101 is fixed to the shoulder belt 106 as shown in FIG.

[0055] And, since the hook hanging portion 105 of the hook retaining member 104 is connected to one side edge of the fixed base 109, it is exposed laterally outward of the shoulder belt 106 as shown in Fig. 8. For example, specifically, when the article holder 100 is attached to the shoulder belt 106 that is hung around the right shoulder of the wearer of the safety belt, the hook hanging portion 105 is exposed on the right arm side of the wearer outside the shoulder belt 106. Since the hook hanging portion 105 is exposed outward in this way, there is less interference with the surroundings when hanging a hook on the hook hanging portion 105, and the hook of the lifeline can be attached to and detached from the hook hanging portion 105 smoothly.

[0056] In addition, since both claw portions 117 of fixed base 109 have the same shape (bilaterally symmetrical shape), the mounting direction of fixed base 109 can be easily reversed from left to right. And, by reversing the mounting direction of fixed base 109 to holder body 101 from left to right, hook retaining member 104 can change the exposed direction with respect to shoulder belt 106 (with respect to holder body 2).

[0057] For example, specifically, when the article holder 100 is attached to a shoulder belt 106 that is hung around the left shoulder of a safety belt wearer, the fixed base 109 may be fitted so that the hook hooking part 105 is exposed on the left arm side, as shown in Fig. 11. This also reduces interference with the surroundings when hanging a hook on the hook hooking part 105, and allows the lifeline to be smoothly attached to and detached from the hook hooking part 105.
