Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bag (including a bag) which is usually folded and carried, and used as a container when there is an increase in luggage. The present invention relates to a shopping bag and a shopping bag pocket.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It is customary to provide a free service of disposable shopping bags made of vinyl or the like when selling goods at shops (including convenience stores, supermarkets, and private shops), but in recent years, this has been a waste of resources. It was pointed out that the cause was increased waste and that illegally dumped shopping bags could damage animals and plants or block waterways, and it was recommended that users bring shopping bags with them. On the other hand, as a store, the cost of purchasing shopping bags was derived from sales. However, when selling low-priced products, the ratio of bag costs to the product price was high, and this was an obstacle to improving the profit margin. Further, in accordance with the regulations of the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law recently enacted, the cost of disposing of disposable shopping bags is borne by the store and paid to local governments. For this reason, it has become necessary for the store to work more proactively to bring users with shopping bags.

[0003] However, from a user's point of view, the resource-saving result of bringing a shopping bag is merely an ideal result, and there is nothing concretely available. . In addition, there has been no effective service to promote resource saving by providing a specific service for bringing a shopping bag from a store to a user.

[0004] As a measure for solving this problem and promoting resource saving, the applicant of the present invention has previously described the results of resource saving when a user of a store brought a shopping bag to carry out shopping. We proposed resource saving services to be allocated to manufacturers and distributors (Japanese Patent Application No. 2001-38734). In this resource saving service, a recording medium in which a user identification code and a product code indicating a shopping bag of the resource saving service are recorded so as to be readable by a terminal device of a store is attached to the shopping bag,
When a user brings this shopping bag to a store and performs shopping, the user can be identified at the point of sale and points can be issued. Based on these points, resource saving results can be returned to users, and useful information analyzed from point-of-sale information collected at the time of point issuance will be used for stores,
Offered to distributors.

[0005]

In addition to the above-mentioned shopping bag for the resource-saving service, it is desirable that the bag to be brought in for shopping can be made smaller by folding or the like when the contents are not inserted. Is also foldable.

However, just because it is small and easy to carry does not mean that there is always a bag at hand. For example,
When shopping on the way home from work, if there are bags at home, it is not possible to save resources. In order to be able to save resources at any time, it is desirable to have a bag that can be used for shopping.

[0007] In addition to shopping, it is convenient to carry a bag that can be easily taken out and used when luggage increases in places such as going out.

When a bag is always carried, a pocket is always occupied by the bag. In the case of women, it is only necessary to put a bag in a handbag, but in the case of men, many people do not have a bag, and they have no choice but to put in a pocket. However, clothing with a small number of pockets loses space for other things. Also, when there are no empty pockets,
It is inconvenient to hold the bag by hand.

Another problem seen from another angle is the problem of fashion. In addition to walking with an empty bag by hand, even if the bag is appropriately rolled up and put into an existing pocket, the pocket expands and the appearance is not good.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems, and to provide an attachment-type shopping bag and a shopping bag pocket which does not impair storage space and is excellent in appearance.

[0011]

In order to achieve the above object, a shopping bag according to the present invention is constructed such that a shopping bag for storing luggage is foldable into a predetermined shape, and the shopping bag is formed into a predetermined shape. An attachment member for detachably attaching the folded shopping bag to a body-worn article such as clothing is provided at a position corresponding to the outer surface when folded.

[0012] A counterpart member mutually engaged with the attachment member may be provided on a human body wearing object to which the shopping bag is attached.

Further, the shopping bag pocket of the present invention is configured so that a shopping bag for storing luggage can be folded into a predetermined shape, and forms a side surface of the pocket that can store the shopping bag folded into the shape. A pocket side member is formed in advance, and the pocket side member is fixed to a human body wearing item such as clothing to increase the number of pockets.

[0014]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The attached shopping bag according to the first embodiment (hereinafter simply referred to as a shopping bag) has a flexible and freely foldable bag body as shown in FIG. 1, a packaging part 2 which is a part of the bag body 1 and wraps and shapes the folded bag body 1, and a folding shopping bag which is provided outside the packaging part 2 and which can be detachably attached to the body-worn article. And a mounting member 3 for mounting on the vehicle. When the shopping bag 10 is folded into a predetermined shaped shape,
The shape and the size are, for example, a substantially rectangular parallelepiped, such as a normal pocket tissue or a wallet, and the packaging unit 2 forms the outer surface. The attachment member 3 is attached to the outside of the packaging section 2. Reference numeral 4 denotes a recording medium for using the shopping bag 10 for the resource saving service described above. In addition, shopping bag 1
The shape when 0 is unfolded and the form of attachment to a human-worn article will be described later.

In the first embodiment, the mounting member 3 is fixed to one side of the packaging portion 2 and the other side opposite to the one side, and a mating member 5 described later is provided between the intermediate portion and the packaging portion 2. It is formed in a belt shape that can be inserted.

A counterpart member 5 shown in FIG. 1B is attached to a human body wearing object to which the shopping bag 10 is to be mounted. The counterpart member 5 is a belt with a button hole, one end of which is fixed by sewing or the like to a substantially rectangular base portion 6 which is fixed to the human body by sewing or the like, and the opposite end is free. A button hole 7 is provided on the free end side. The button 8 is aligned with the button hole 7, and the button 8 is attached to the base 6 so as to be slightly lifted from the base 6. The base portion 6 is attached to a human body attachment by, for example, sewing along a surrounding sewing line 9. The base portion 6 may be omitted, and the belt 5 with button holes and the button 8 may be directly attached to the human body.

The counterpart member 5 is attached by sewing or bonding the base portion 6 to a ready-made garment or bag. This mounting operation is simple because only linear sewing is performed. In addition, since complicated pretreatments such as button attachment, button holes, and end folding are omitted, it is very simple as compared with the case where the counterpart member 5 is made from cloth.
Therefore, it can be performed even if it is not a sewing expert.

As shown in FIG. 1C, the shopping bag is inserted into the human body by inserting a belt 5 with a button hole between the mounting member 3 and the packaging portion 2 and inserting it into the button hole 7. The free end of the buttonhole belt 5 is held by the base portion 6 through the button 8. As a result, the button-hole belt 5 and the mounting member 3 are engaged with each other, and the shopping bag 10 is mounted on the human body. In order to remove the shopping bag 10 from the body wearing item, the button hole 7 is detached from the button 8 and the packaging unit 2 is removed.
Should be moved in the direction of the free end of the belt 5 with button holes.

The attachment member attached to the shopping bag 10 is constituted by a belt with button holes, and the opposite member is fixed at both ends to the base portion 6, and is provided between the intermediate portion and the base portion of the opposite member. A belt with a button hole, which is an attachment member, may be inserted, and the belt with the button hole may be fixed to a button provided on the packaging unit 2.

The shopping bag according to the second embodiment is shown in FIG.
As shown in (a), a packaging part 2 similar to that of FIG.
Having.

The attachment member and the mating member are the fastener 11
It is composed of One side 11a of the fastener 11 as an attachment member is attached along at least one side of the packaging portion 2. Here, the mounting member 11a is mounted in a U-shaped drawing shape along three continuous sides of the packaging part 2. The counterpart member forming the opposite side 11b of the fastener 11 is:
As shown in FIG. 2 (b), it is attached to a base portion 6 which is fixed to a human body wearing product by sewing or the like in a drawing shape corresponding to the attachment member 11a.

In order to attach the shopping bag 10 to an article worn on the human body, the fastener knob 1 attached to the counterpart member 11b is attached.
2 is moved to the start end of the counterpart member 11b, and the start end of the mounting member 11a is inserted into the fastener knob 12. When the fastener knob 12 is moved toward the end along the counterpart member 11b, the counterpart member 11b and the mounting member 11a engage with each other, and the shopping bag 10 is mounted on the human body wearing article. In order to remove the shopping bag 10 from the body-worn article, the fastener knob 12 may be moved from the end of the counterpart member 11b to the start end, and the packaging part 2 may be pulled down to disengage the start end of the mounting member 11a from the fastener knob 12. .

FIG. 3A shows a modification of the second embodiment.
As shown in (b), two fasteners 11 are used,
One side 11a of both sets of fasteners 11 may be attached along two opposing sides of the packaging part 2, and the opposite side 11b may be attached to the base part 6 in a similar arrangement.

The mounting member and the mating member may be formed of a magic tape (registered trademark) having a large number of hooking elements formed on the tape surface.

In the third embodiment, shopping bags are accommodated in additional shopping bag pockets. As shown in FIG. 4A, a pocket side member 21 which forms a side surface of a pocket capable of storing a shopping bag (in a state of being wrapped by the packaging unit 2) folded into a well-shaped shape is formed in advance, and the pocket side surface is formed. The member 21 is fixed to the surface of a human-worn article such as clothing.
As shown in FIG. 4 (b), the pocket side member 21 attaches a sheet material (a material is not limited, but will be referred to as a cloth hereinafter) 22 such as a cloth constituting one side surface of the pocket to a body-worn article. It has been pre-processed up to the immediately preceding step. Alternatively, the cloths 22, 22 constituting both side surfaces of the pocket may be pre-processed up to a step immediately before attachment to the body-worn article. In the pre-processing of the pocket side member on one side, the cloth 22 is molded to be larger than the outer shape of the packaging portion, and the periphery of the molded cloth is folded back and bound. Reference numeral 23 denotes binding. The pretreatment of the pocket side members 21 on both sides is performed by molding two cloths 22 and 22 larger than the outer shape of the packaging unit 2, and folding and binding the upper portions of the pockets of these molded fabrics, excluding the upper portions of the pockets. The sets are bound together. That is, a single pocket is formed. The stapled pocket side member 21 may be further fixed to a base (not shown) by sewing or the like.

The pocket side member 21 is attached to a ready-made garment or bag by sewing or bonding. In the case of the pocket side member 21 on one side, the periphery except the upper part of the pocket is sewn to the object. In the case of the pocket side members 21 on both side surfaces, the peripheral portion excluding the upper surface of the pocket and the upper portion of the pocket or the base portion is sewn to the object. Such a mounting operation is much simpler than making a pocket out of cloth, since cumbersome pretreatments are omitted. Therefore, it can be performed even if it is not a sewing expert.

As shown in FIG. 5, a cover 25 may be formed on the cloth 22 inside the pocket side member 21 in advance.

Next, the developed shape of the shopping bag 10 will be described. The shopping bag 10 is, for example, a shopping bag with a barcode used for a resource saving service. This shopping bag 10
Is formed using a flexible cloth or sheet material, and is configured to be foldable. In addition, the shopping bag 10 is provided with a packaging unit 2 that accommodates the shopping bag in a folded state and adjusts its outer shape. In the case of a shopping bag used for a resource saving service, a recording medium is attached outside the packaging unit 2.

As shown in FIGS. 6 (a) and 6 (b), the shopping bag has a main body bag portion 31 having an opening at the upper side and two upper sides of the main body bag portion 31 as base ends. First handle 32
