Description

本考案は、刺繍糸などの糸が巻き付けられる紙管などの筒状糸巻の端部に取り付けられる筒状糸巻用キャップに関するものである。The present invention relates to a cap for a tubular thread winder that is attached to the end of a tubular thread winder such as a paper tube around which thread such as embroidery thread is wound.

従来、刺繍糸等の糸が巻き付けられる紙管などの筒状糸巻がある。刺繍糸等の糸は様々な色や種類が存在し、刺繍等を行う際には、多数の色や種類の糸を使用することがある。しかしながら、従来の筒状糸巻は、糸の色や種類を表示するスペースは非常に限られている。そこで、本考案は、筒状糸巻の端部に取り付けることで、糸の色や種類を表示するスペースを容易に設けることができる筒状糸巻用キャップを提供することを目的とする。Conventionally, there are cylindrical thread spools such as paper tubes around which threads such as embroidery threads are wound. Threads such as embroidery threads come in a variety of colors and types, and many colors and types of threads may be used when embroidering. However, conventional cylindrical thread spools have very limited space for displaying the color and type of thread. Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a cap for a cylindrical thread spool that can be attached to the end of the cylindrical thread spool to easily provide a space for displaying the color and type of thread.

図１から図４を参照しつつ本願の実施形態に係る筒状糸巻用キャップ１０について説明する。A cylindrical thread winder cap 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 4.

筒状糸巻用キャップ１０は、図４に示すように、糸が巻き付けられる筒状糸巻２０の端部に取り付けられる。刺繍糸が巻き付けられる筒状糸巻２０が紙管の場合、一般的に、図４に示すように、筒状糸巻２０の端部から径方向内側に張り出した円環部５が設けられる。The cylindrical thread winder cap 10 is attached to the end of the cylindrical thread winder 20 around which the thread is wound, as shown in Fig. 4. When the cylindrical thread winder 20 around which the embroidery thread is wound is a paper tube, a circular ring portion 5 is generally provided that protrudes radially inward from the end of the cylindrical thread winder 20, as shown in Fig. 4.

筒状糸巻用キャップ１０は、筒状糸巻２０の中心軸線方向に対して略垂直な方向に広がる板状部１と、筒状糸巻２０の中心軸線方向において板状部１に対して筒状糸巻側２０で、板状部１と一体に形成され、筒状糸巻２０の端面に接触する凸部２と、筒状糸巻２０の中心軸線方向において凸部２から板状部１とは反対側に延び、筒状糸巻２０の中心軸線を中心とする周方向に複数配置された脚部３ａ、３ｂ、３ｃ、３ｄと、脚部３ａ、３ｂ、３ｃ、３ｄの先端側部分のそれぞれから、筒状糸巻２０の中心軸線に垂直な方向において筒状糸巻２０の中心軸線とは反対側に突出した爪部４ａ、４ｂ、４ｃ、４ｄとを有する。The cap 10 for a cylindrical thread winder has a plate-shaped portion 1 that extends in a direction approximately perpendicular to the central axis of the cylindrical thread winder 20, a convex portion 2 that is formed integrally with the plate-shaped portion 1 on the cylindrical thread winder side 20 relative to the plate-shaped portion 1 in the central axis direction of the cylindrical thread winder 20 and contacts the end face of the cylindrical thread winder 20, and legs 3a, 3b, 3c, and 3d that extend from the convex portion 2 to the opposite side of the plate-shaped portion 1 in the central axis direction of the cylindrical thread winder 20 and are arranged in a circumferential direction centered on the central axis of the cylindrical thread winder 20, and claw portions 4a, 4b, 4c, and 4d that protrude from each of the tip portions of the legs 3a, 3b, 3c, and 3d to the opposite side of the central axis of the cylindrical thread winder 20 in a direction perpendicular to the central axis of the cylindrical thread winder 20.

なお、板状部１は、図３に示すように円形であることが好ましいが、これに限られず、例えば、多角形状や楕円状とすることもできる。脚部の数は、４つが好ましいが、２つ、３つ又は５つ以上とすることもできる。筒状糸巻用キャップ１０は、合成樹脂から形成されることが好ましいが、これに限られず、木、金属等、他の素材を用いることもできる。The plate-shaped portion 1 is preferably circular as shown in Fig. 3, but is not limited thereto and may be polygonal or elliptical, for example. The number of legs is preferably four, but may be two, three, or five or more. The cylindrical thread winding cap 10 is preferably made of synthetic resin, but is not limited thereto and may be made of other materials such as wood or metal.

爪部４ａ、４ｂ、４ｃ、４ｄは、脚部３ａ、３ｂ、３ｃ、３ｄの先端側に向かうにつれて突出高さが小さくなる傾斜部を有する。これにより、脚部３ａ、３ｂ、３ｃ、３ｄが筒状糸巻２０の端部に挿入しやすく、脚部３ａ、３ｂ、３ｃ、３ｄが互いに内側へ弾性変形し、または、筒状糸巻２０の端部が弾性変形により拡径することで爪部４ａ、４ｂ、４ｃ、４ｄが筒状糸巻２０の端部に形成された円環部５を乗り越え、円環部５の奥まで挿入される。The claws 4a, 4b, 4c, and 4d have inclined portions whose protruding height decreases toward the tip end of the legs 3a, 3b, 3c, and 3d, so that the legs 3a, 3b, 3c, and 3d can be easily inserted into the end of the tubular thread spool 20, and the legs 3a, 3b, 3c, and 3d elastically deform inwardly relative to each other, or the end of the tubular thread spool 20 expands in diameter due to elastic deformation, so that the claws 4a, 4b, 4c, and 4d climb over the annular portion 5 formed at the end of the tubular thread spool 20 and are inserted all the way into the annular portion 5.

また、爪部４ａ、４ｂ、４ｃ、４ｄが円環部５に引っ掛かり、意図せず筒状糸巻用キャップ１０が筒状糸巻２０から外れるのを防ぐ。さらに、筒状糸巻２０の径が多少異なる場合でも、筒状糸巻用キャップ１０を使用することが可能となる。使用者は、図３に示す板状部１にラベルを張ったり、文字を書き込んだりすることで、筒状糸巻２０に巻き付けられている糸の色や種類を表示することができる。In addition, the claws 4a, 4b, 4c, and 4d catch on the annular portion 5, preventing the cap 10 from unintentionally coming off the cylindrical thread spool 20. Furthermore, the cap 10 can be used even if the diameter of the cylindrical thread spool 20 varies slightly. The user can indicate the color or type of thread wound around the cylindrical thread spool 20 by attaching a label or writing characters on the plate portion 1 shown in FIG.

凸部２は、板状部１と中心軸線を共通にするが、板状部１よりも径が小さい。使用時に凸部２の下面が筒状糸巻２０の端面に当接することで、筒状糸巻２０と板状部１の間に溝が形成される。これにより、使用者はその溝に爪を引っ掛ける等して容易に筒状糸巻用キャップ１０を取り外すことが可能となる。The protruding portion 2 shares a common central axis with the plate-shaped portion 1, but has a smaller diameter than the plate-shaped portion 1. When in use, the lower surface of the protruding portion 2 abuts against the end surface of the cylindrical thread spool 20, forming a groove between the cylindrical thread spool 20 and the plate-shaped portion 1. This allows the user to easily remove the cylindrical thread spool cap 10 by, for example, hooking their fingernail into the groove.

なお、板状部１は、筒状糸巻２０から糸が引き出されていく際に邪魔にならないよう、筒状糸巻２０の外径よりも小さいことが好ましい。In addition, it is preferable that the plate-shaped portion 1 be smaller than the outer diameter of the cylindrical spool 20 so as not to get in the way when the thread is pulled out from the cylindrical spool 20.
