AI Technical Summary
Conventional fishing lures face challenges in assembly workability and the risk of the tail part detaching from the body part due to vibrations, especially when using pins for fixation.
The lure design incorporates a body part with an engaging mechanism that includes a restricting member, such as an elongated pin, which is partially supported by the body main body and protrudes into the engaging part, allowing for secure engagement with the tail part without the need for precise alignment or additional assembly steps.
This design enhances assembly workability by simplifying the attachment process and ensures that the tail part remains securely attached to the body part, even during elastic deformation and vibrations, thereby preventing detachment.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to lures.
Background Art
[0002] Conventionally, as a fishing lure, there is known one including a body part and an elastically deformable tail part having an engaged part engaged with the body part. In such a lure, the tail part of the lure made of a soft material such as rubber or elastomer is engaged with the body part of the lure made of a hard material such as ABS, and the engagement between the tail part and the body part may be unintentionally released due to the elastic deformation of the soft member of the tail part. Therefore, as a lure that makes it difficult for the tail part to come off from the body part, for example, as shown in Patent Document 1, after engaging a hard body part and a soft tail part, the tail part is fixed by a pin inserted into a pin hole provided in the body part. A method of doing so is disclosed.

Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0004] However, in a lure such as that of Patent Document 1, since it is necessary to align the pin with the pin hole provided in the body part and the hole for the pin also provided in the tail part and insert the pin through both holes, the workability for assembling the lure is reduced. In addition, in conventional lures, since the pin is fixed to the body part by friction, there is a risk that the pin may fall off due to vibrations during use of the lure, and there is room for improvement in that regard.
[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a lure that can improve workability related to assembly and further prevent the tail from falling off the body part.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0006] (1) The lure according to the present invention is a lure including a body part and an elastically deformable tail having an engaged part engaged with the body part, wherein the body part has a body main body, an opening for inserting the engaged part, an engaging part for engaging the engaged part, and a restricting member partially supported by the body main body and the other part protruding into the engaging part, the engaged part has a locking hole into which the other part of the restricting member is inserted, and the engaged part is engaged with the engaging part with the other part of the restricting member inserted into the locking hole.
[0007] According to the lure of the present invention, by inserting the engaged part of the tail from the opening into the engaging part of the body part, the engaged part can be engaged with the engaging part. When the engaged part is engaged with the engaging part, the restricting member fixed to the body main body can be inserted into the locking hole while elastically deforming the engaged part. And the tail attached to the body part is held in a state where it cannot be detached from the body part. That is, since a part of the restricting member is supported by the body main body, even when the tail moves and elastically deforms during the use of the lure, the restricting member does not come out, and it is possible to prevent the engagement between the engaged part and the engaging part from being disengaged and the tail from falling off the body part.
[0008] Further, in the present invention, since the restricting member is supported by the body main body in advance, when attaching the tail to the body part, it only becomes an operation of inserting and engaging the engaged part of the tail with the engaging part of the body part, and operations such as inserting a pin and positioning the hole of the pin as in the prior art are not required, and the assembly workability can be improved.
[0009] (2) The restricting member may be an elongated pin.
[0010] In this case, by adopting an elongated pin, it becomes easier to insert the other part of the pin into the locking hole, and the structure is such that the pin inserted into the locking hole is difficult to come out.
[0011] (3) The pin preferably has a protrusion protruding in a direction intersecting the pin axis direction, and the protrusion is embedded in the body main body.
[0012] In this case, since the protrusion of the pin is supported in a state of being embedded in the body main body of the body part, it is possible to more reliably prevent the pin from coming out even when the engaged part at the tail part is elastically deformed during the use of the lure.
[0013] (4) The pin may be provided in an L-shaped configuration in which the protrusion extends in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the protrusion extends from one end of the pin shaft portion extending in the pin axis direction.
[0014] In this case, the protrusion extending in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the pin comes out is embedded in the body main body, and the pin is more firmly fixed to the body main body.
[0015] (5) The pin may have a groove recessed in a direction intersecting the pin axis direction, and the body main body is embedded in the groove.
[0016] In this case, since the pin is fixed in a state where the body main body is embedded in the groove of the pin, it is possible to more reliably prevent the pin from coming out even when the engaged part at the tail part is elastically deformed during the use of the lure.
[0017] (6) The tip of the pin on the side opposite to the engaging portion side of the pin gradually inclines or curves from the head portion toward the tail portion side in the front-rear direction as it approaches the engaging portion, and the angle formed by the tangent line passing through the tip of the pin when viewed from the side and the straight line orthogonal to the front-rear direction is in the range of 0° to 90°.
[0018] In this case, when inserting the engaged portion at the tail into the opening, since the tip of the pin faces in the direction opposite to the insertion direction of the engaged portion, the pin is inserted into the locking hole in the process of inserting the engaged portion into the engaging portion. At this time, since the engaged portion is inserted into the engaging portion in a state of being elastically deformed, it is also possible to lock the pin by biting into the locking hole. And even when the tail is further elastically deformed during the use of the lure, the engaged portion is less likely to come off the pin. Also, it is not necessary to accurately align the positions of the pin and the locking hole of the engaged portion, and the processing during manufacturing becomes easy. Further, it is possible to suppress the pin from bending in the insertion direction as the engaged portion is inserted, and the tip of the pin can be inserted into the locking hole of the engaged portion.
[0019] (7) The body portion may be characterized in that it is composed of a first body portion and a second body portion which are bisected with the front-rear direction connecting the head portion and the tail portion as a cutting plane.
[0020] In this case, by sandwiching the engaged portion at the tail between the divided first body portion and the second body portion, the engaged portion can be reliably engaged with the engaging portion, and the assembling work of attaching the tail to the body portion can be easily performed.
[0021] (8) The regulating member may be characterized in that it is sandwiched and fixed between the first body portion and the second body portion.
[0022] In this case, the regulating member can be fixed to the body main body by an easy operation of sandwiching the regulating member between the first body portion and the second body portion.
[0023] (9) The engaging portion may be characterized in that it is formed to be enlarged from the cross-sectional shape of the opening portion.
[0024] In this case, the engaged portion can be easily inserted from the opening portion into the engaging portion while being elastically deformed.
[0025] (10) The regulating member may be characterized in that the tip of the other part is located outside the body main body.
[0026] In this case, since one end of the regulating member protrudes and is exposed outside the body main body, the regulating member can be visually recognized from the outside of the lure. Therefore, the state of the regulating member, such as its coming off, can be easily confirmed.
Advantages of the Invention
[0027] According to the lure of the present invention, the workability related to assembly can be improved, and furthermore, the detachment of the tail part from the body part can be prevented.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention
[0029] Hereinafter, embodiments of the lure according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that, in each drawing, the scale of each component may be appropriately changed as necessary in order to make each component visible.
[0030] As shown in FIG. 1, the lure 1 of the present embodiment is used for fishing, has a body portion 10 made of hard plastic, and is an example of a jointed lure that mimics the form of a small fish.
[0031] The lure 1 includes the body portion 10 described above, and a protruding portion 22 engaged with the body portion 10, and an elastically deformable tail portion 20 made of, for example, soft plastic.
[0032] Here, in the lure 1, the direction in which the head and the tail are connected in a straight line is defined as the front-rear direction, the head side is defined as the front, the front side, and the tail side is defined as the rear, the rear side. Also, when viewed from above, the lateral direction orthogonal to the front-rear direction is defined as the left-right direction. The up-down direction in the swimming posture of the lure 1 will be described below as the up-down direction.
[0033] The body portion 10 is provided with a first body 11, a second body 12, and a third body 13 in order from the front to the rear.
[0034] The first body 11 is formed in a shape that mimics approximately the first half of a fish. A line eye 14 is provided at the front portion 11a of the first body 11. A front hook eye 16A for connecting the front hook 15A is provided at the lower portion 11c of the first body 11. The first body 11 is rotatably connected to the second body 12 in the left-right direction via a pair of upper and lower first connecting members 31, 31.
[0035] The first connecting member 31 is formed in a flat plate shape that is long in one direction, with its longitudinal direction oriented in the front-rear direction and its planar direction oriented in a direction perpendicular to the up-down direction. A pair of first connecting members 31, 31 are arranged at intervals in the up-down direction. Through holes (not shown) penetrating in the thickness direction are provided on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the first connecting member 31.
[0036] A first rotating shaft 32 is provided at the rear end portion 11b of the first body 11. The front through hole of the first connecting member 31 is inserted through the first rotating shaft 32. A second rotating shaft 33 is provided at the front end portion 12a of the second body 12. The rear through hole of the first connecting member 31 is inserted through the second rotating shaft 33. The rotating shafts 32, 33 extend in the up-down direction on the rear end portion 11b side of the first body 11 and the front end portion 12a side of the second body 12, respectively. That is, the first connecting member 31 is provided so as to be rotatable about the first rotating shaft 32 and is provided so as to be rotatable about the second rotating shaft 33.
[0037] The second body 12 and the third body 13 are formed in a shape simulating the approximate rear half of a fish. The front end portion 12a of the second body 12 is connected to the rear end portion 11b of the first body 11 via a pair of first connecting members 31, 31. A rear hook eye 16B for connecting a rear hook 15B is provided at the lower portion 12c of the second body 12. The second body 12 is rotatably connected to the third body 13 in the left-right direction via a second connecting member 34 (see FIG. 2).
[0038] As shown in FIG. 3, the third body 13 is provided so as to be rotatable in the left-right direction with respect to the rear end portion 12b of the second body 12 via the second connecting member 34. The body main body 130 of the third body 13 is composed of a first body portion 130A and a second body portion 130B that are bisected with a plane including the front-rear direction and the up-down direction as a cutting plane. The first body portion 130A and the second body portion 130B are provided so as to be detachable. FIGS. 2 and 4 show views in which the second body portion 130B is removed and only the first body portion 130A is shown.
[0039] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the tail portion 20 is formed of a soft material such as rubber or silicon, and is integrally formed as a whole. The tail portion 20 includes a tail body 21 that tapers from the front to the rear, and a protruding portion 22 that protrudes forward from the front end portion 21a of the tail body 21.
[0040] The protruding portion 22 has a base portion 23 that extends forward from the front end portion 21a of the tail body 21 on the side of the tail body 21, and an engaged portion 24 that is located on the front side of the base portion 23. The engaged portion 24 has a shape that expands to both the left and right sides more than the base portion 23, and is engaged with the engaging portion 41 of the third body 13 described later. The engaged portion 24 has a locking hole 24a into which the pin shaft portion 40B (other portion) of the pin 40 described later is inserted. The locking hole 24a penetrates the engaged portion 24 in the thickness direction (vertical direction). The tail portion 20 is attached to the third body 13 by inserting the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 into the locking hole 24a. The tail portion 20 attached to the third body 13 rotates around the axis of the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 that extends substantially in the vertical direction. That is, the tail portion 20 can swing left and right with respect to the rear end portion 13b of the third body 13.
[0041] The third body 13 has a body main body 130, an engaging portion 41 that engages the engaged portion 24 of the protruding portion 22, and a fixed shaft portion 40A (protruding portion) that is partially supported by the body main body 130. The third body 13 includes a pin 40 (restricting member) in which a pin shaft portion 40B (other portion) extending downward from the rear end of the fixed shaft portion 40A protrudes into the engaging portion 41.
[0042] A third rotating shaft 35 extending in the vertical direction that is inserted into a through hole (not shown) on the rear side of the second connecting member 34 is provided at the front end portion 13a of the third body 13. That is, the second connecting member 34 is provided so as to be rotatable around the third rotating shaft 35, and thereby the tail portion 20 can swing left and right with respect to the third body 13.
[0043] The engaging portion 41 is a hollow portion formed at approximately the center in the front-rear direction of the third body 13, and the engaged portion 24 of the protruding portion 22 of the tail portion 20 is engaged therewith (see Fig. 5(a)). As shown in Fig. 5(a), the engaging portion 41 is formed so as to extend greatly in the front-rear direction from the cross-sectional shape of the opening portion 42.
[0044] The body main body 130 has an opening portion 42 that communicates with the engaging portion 41 from below, a base engaging hole 43 into which the base portion 23 of the protruding portion 22 is engaged, and a pin support hole 44 into which the fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40 is locked.
[0045] When the tail portion 20 is attached to the third body 13, the opening portion 42 serves as an entrance portion through which the engaged portion 24 can be pushed toward the engaging portion 41 while inserting the locking hole 24a of the engaged portion 24 of the tail portion 20 into the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40. The length in the front-rear direction of the opening portion 42 is set to be smaller than the length in the front-rear direction of the engaged portion 24, at least at the upper end portion 42a on the engaging portion 41 side.
[0046] The base engaging hole 43 extends rearward from the engaging portion 41 and communicates with the rear end portion 13b of the third body 13. The base engaging hole 43 has substantially the same cross-sectional shape as the base portion 23 of the tail portion 20, and the base portion 23 is engaged with the base engaging hole 43 in a state where the tail portion 20 is attached to the third body 13. As shown in Fig. 3, a slit 45 is formed in the lower portion of the base engaging hole 43 in the body main body 130 such that the opening dimension in the left-right direction gradually increases as it goes from the base engaging hole 43 toward the lower surface 130a of the body main body 130. That is, the opening dimension in the left-right direction of the upper end opening 45a of the slit 45 is set to be smaller than the width dimension in the left-right direction of the base portion 23. The protruding portion 22 is engaged so that its base portion 23 does not come out of the base engaging hole 43 by pushing it through while elastically deforming the base portion 23 with respect to the slit 45.
[0047] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the pin support hole 44 extends obliquely upward forward from the upper end of the engaging portion 41, and the fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40 is disposed and held therein. The inner diameter of the pin support hole 44 is formed to be substantially the same as the outer diameter of the fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40.
[0048] The pin 40 has an elongated shape and is bent at a substantially right angle. The pin 40 has a fixed shaft portion 40A that is disposed and held in the pin support hole 44 forming one side of the bent pin 40, and a pin shaft portion 40B that forms the other side and extends to the engaging portion 41 and the opening portion 42. The fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40 is sandwiched between the first body portion 130A and the second body portion 130B and is held by frictional resistance. That is, the pin 40 is provided in a cantilever support state in which a part of the fixed shaft portion 40A is held by the body main body 130 and the other part of the pin shaft portion 40B is released within the engaging portion 41 and the opening portion 42. When the tail portion 20 is attached to the third body 13 and no tensile force acts on the tail portion 20, the pin 40 does not bite into the engaged portion 24. On the other hand, when the engaged portion 24 of the tail portion 20 is engaged with the engaging portion 41, the pin 40 bites into the engaged portion 24 (see FIG. 5(b)).
[0049] Further, the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 extends outside the lower surface 130a of the body main body 130 where the pin shaft portion 40B protruding into the engaging portion 41 is located. That is, the pin tip portion 40a of the pin shaft portion 40B is located below the opening end 42b of the opening portion 42.
[0050] The pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is gradually inclined from the front to the rear as it goes from the pin tip portion 40a toward the engaging portion 41 side. The pin inclination angle θ at this time, that is, the angle θ formed by the tangent line K1 (the two-dot chain line shown in FIG. 2) passing through the pin tip portion 40a as viewed from the side and the straight line K2 orthogonal to the front-rear direction, is set in the range of 0° to 90°. Further, as the more preferable pin inclination angle θ, it is Scope from 15° to 90°. The pin inclination angle θ in the present embodiment is 17.5°.
[0051] Here, a method for attaching the tail part 20 to the third body 13 of the body part 10 in the above-described lure 1 will be described. First, as shown in Fig. 5(a), one side of the body main body 130 (here, the second body part 130B shown in Fig. 1) is removed. Then, in the first body part 130A, after hooking the fixed shaft part 40A of the pin 40 on the pin support hole 44 of the third body 13, the pin shaft part 40B of the pin 40 is hooked on the locking hole 24a provided in the engaged part 24 of the protruding part 22 in the tail part 20. Here, the state of hooking the pin 40 on the pin support hole 44 is a form of the insertion state.
[0052] After that, as shown in Fig. 5(b), while elastically deforming by stretching the engaged part 24 (or the entire tail part 20) of the tail part 20 shown by the two-dot chain line by hand, it is inserted into the opening 42. Further, the base part 23 of the protruding part 22 is fitted into the base engaging hole 43. After the engaged part 24 is engaged with the engaging part 41, release the hand from the tail part 20, and by restoring the protruding part in the elastically deformed state to its original shape, the attachment of the tail part 20 to the third body 13 is completed (see Fig. 4).
[0053] Next, the operation of the lure 1 configured in this way will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the lure 1 according to the present embodiment, by inserting the protruding part 22 of the tail part 20 from the opening 42 into the engaging part 41 of the third body 13 of the body part 10, the protruding part 22 can be engaged with the engaging part 41 of the third body 13. When the protruding part 22 is engaged with the engaging part 41, the locking hole 24a can be inserted with the pin 40 fixed to the third body 13 while elastically deforming the engaged part 24 of the protruding part 22. And the tail part 20 attached to the third body 13 is held in a state where it cannot be detached from the third body 13. That is, since a part of the pin 40 is supported by the body main body 130, even when the tail part 20 moves and elastically deforms during the use of the lure, the pin 40 will not come out, and the engagement between the protruding part 22 and the engaging part 41 can be prevented from coming off and the tail part 20 from falling off from the body part 10 (the third body 13).
[0054] Also, in this embodiment, since the pin 40 is supported by the body main body 130 in advance, when attaching the tail part 20 to the third body 13, it only requires the operation of inserting and engaging the protruding part 22 of the tail part 20 into the engaging part 41 of the third body 13. Operations such as inserting a pin as in the prior art and positioning the hole of the pin 40 are not required, and the assembly workability can be improved.
[0055] Also, in this embodiment, by adopting the elongated pin 40, it becomes easier to insert the pin shaft part 40B of the pin 40 into the locking hole 24a, and the structure is such that the pin 40 inserted into the locking hole 24a is not easily removed.
[0056] Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the protruding part of the pin 40 is supported in a state of being embedded in the body main body 130, even when the protruding part 22 of the tail part 20 is elastically deformed during the use of the lure 1, it is possible to more reliably prevent the pin from coming out.
[0057] Also, in this embodiment, the pin 40 is provided in an L-shaped configuration in which the fixed shaft part 40A extends in a direction orthogonal to one end of the pin shaft part 40B that extends in the pin axis direction. Therefore, the fixed shaft part 40A that extends in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the pin 40 comes out is embedded in the body main body 130, and the pin 40 is more firmly fixed to the third body 13.
[0058] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the angle θ formed by the tangent line K1 passing through the pin tip part 40a and the straight line K2 orthogonal to the front-rear direction when the pin 40 is viewed from the side is set in the range of 0° to 90°. In this case, when inserting the protruding part 22 of the tail part 20 from the opening part 42, since the pin tip part 40a faces in the direction opposite to the insertion direction of the protruding part 22, the pin 40 is inserted into the locking hole 24a in the process of inserting the protruding part 22 into the engaging part 41. At this time, since the protruding part 22 is inserted into the engaging part in an elastically deformed state, it is also possible to lock the pin 40 by biting into the locking hole 24a. And even when the tail part 20 is further elastically deformed during the use of the lure, the protruding part 22 is less likely to come off from the pin 40.
[0059] Further, in the present embodiment, by setting the above-described angle θ in the range of 0° to 90°, it is not necessary to accurately align the positions of the pin 40 and the locking hole 24a of the engaged portion 24, and the machining during manufacturing becomes easy. Further, it is possible to suppress the pin 40 from bending in the insertion direction as the engaged portion 24 is inserted, and the tip portion 40a of the pin can be inserted into the locking hole 24a of the engaged portion 24.
[0060] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the engaged portion 24 of the tail portion 20 can be engaged with the engaging portion 41 by being sandwiched between the divided first body portion 130A and the second body portion 130B, and the assembling operation of attaching the tail portion 20 to the third body 13 can be easily performed.
[0061] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the pin 40 can be fixed to the body main body 130 only by sandwiching the pin 40 between the first body portion 130A and the second body portion 130B.
[0062] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, since the engaging portion 41 is formed to be enlarged from the cross-sectional shape of the opening portion 42, the engaged portion 24 can be easily inserted into the engaging portion 41 from the opening portion 42 while being elastically deformed.
[0063] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the end portion (pin tip portion 40a) of the other portion where the pin 40 protrudes into the engaging portion 41 is located outside the body main body 130. In this case, since one end (pin tip portion 40a) of the pin 40 protrudes and is exposed outside the body main body 130, the pin 40 can be visually recognized from the outside of the lure 1. Therefore, the state of the pin 40, such as the pin 40 coming out, can be easily confirmed.
[0064] In the lure 1 according to the present embodiment configured as described above, the workability related to assembly can be improved, and further, the tail portion 20 can be prevented from falling off the body portion 10 (third body 13).
[0065] Next, a modification example of the lure according to the embodiment will be described. Components having the same functions as those of the components of the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed descriptions thereof are omitted since the descriptions would be redundant.
[0066] (First Modification Example) Next, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the lure 1A according to the first modification example has a groove portion 40b that is recessed over the entire circumference in the circumferential direction at the front end portion 40c of the fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40 provided on the third body 13 in the above-described embodiment. The front end portion 40c including the groove portion 40b in the fixed shaft portion 40A inserted into the pin support hole 44 is embedded in the body main body 130.
[0067] In the case of the first modification example, since the body main body 130 is fixed in a state of being embedded in the groove portion 40b of the pin 40, it is possible to more reliably prevent the pin 40 from coming out even when the engaged portion 24 is elastically deformed during the use of the lure 1A.
[0068] (Second Modification Example) Next, as shown in FIG. 8, the lure 1B according to the second modification example has a linear pin configuration in which only the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is provided and the fixed shaft portion 40A of the above-described embodiment is omitted. The upper end portion 40d (the end portion on the side opposite to the pin tip portion 40a in the pin shaft direction) of the pin shaft portion 40B has a groove portion 40b that is recessed in a direction intersecting the pin shaft direction. The upper end portion 40d including the groove portion 40b is embedded in the body main body 130.
[0069] In the lure 1B according to the second modification example, since the body main body 130 is fixed in a state of being embedded in the groove portion 40b of the pin 40 in the same manner as in the first modification example, it is possible to more reliably prevent the pin 40 from coming out even when the engaged portion 24 is elastically deformed during the use of the lure 1B.
[0070] (Third Modification Example) The lure 1C according to the third modification shown in FIG. 9 is configured such that the pin shaft portion 40B of the L-shaped pin 40 is arranged with its axis in the vertical direction. The line connecting the upper end portion 40d and the pin tip portion 40a of the pin shaft portion 40B is oriented in the vertical direction. The pin inclination angle θ of the pin shaft portion 40B according to the third modification, that is, the angle θ formed between the tangent line K1 (the two-dot chain line shown in FIG. 9) passing through the pin tip portion 40a as viewed from the side and the straight line K2 orthogonal to the front-rear direction, is 0°.
[0071] (Fourth Modification) The lure 1D according to the fourth modification shown in FIG. 10 is configured such that the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is curved in a U shape. The pin shaft portion 40B is curved 180° from the rear end of the fixed shaft portion 40A extending in the front-rear direction, and the pin tip portion 40a is arranged to face forward. The pin inclination angle θ of the pin shaft portion 40B according to the fourth modification, that is, the angle θ formed between the tangent line K1 (the two-dot chain line shown in FIG. 10) passing through the pin tip portion 40a as viewed from the side and the straight line K2 orthogonal to the front-rear direction, is 90°.
[0072] Although the embodiments of the lure according to the present invention have been described above, these embodiments are presented as examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The embodiments can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. The embodiments and their modifications include, for example, those that can be easily assumed by those skilled in the art, those that are substantially the same, and those within the equivalent range.
[0073] For example, in the above embodiment, the pin 40 is employed as the restricting member, but it is not limited to the pin 40. For example, a plate-shaped plate or a wire can also be employed as the restricting member, and the restricting member may be integrally formed with the body 13.
[0074] In addition, in the present embodiment, the body portion 10 is configured to be divided into three parts in the front-rear direction by the first body 11, the second body 12, and the third body 13. However, the number of divisions of the body portion 10 is not particularly limited, and it may be divided into two parts or may be an undivided body portion.
[0075] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the third body 13 is divided into a first body portion 130A and a second body portion 130B and is detachably provided. However, it is not limited to such a divided structure and may be integrally provided. Even when it is integrally provided, the engaged portion 24 of the tail portion 20 can be elastically deformed, and while inserting the pin 40 into the locking hole 24a, it can be inserted from the opening 42 of the third body 13 and engaged with the engaging portion 41.
[0076] In addition, in the present embodiment, the pin 40 is shown to have a groove portion 40b that is recessed in a direction intersecting the pin axis direction. However, it is not limited to a concave groove portion. For example, a convex portion that protrudes in a direction intersecting the pin axis direction may be formed on the pin 40, and the convex portion may be embedded in the third body 13. Alternatively, it may be an uneven portion that combines a groove portion and a convex portion.
