Description

Belt structure

The present invention relates to a belt structure, and more particularly to a belt structure having a soft fixing member.

The use of the belt structure is very extensive. For all kinds of devices that need to be tightened, the belt length structure and the elastic band structure are often used to achieve the fixing effect, for example, a diving mask for swimming, a mask for sports or Industrial masks, etc. When the user wears the mask, the mask is usually placed in the head, and then the elastic structure of the belt is adjusted to achieve the function of binding the head.

However, the conventional belt structure and its retainer do not allow the user to comfortably load. In detail, as shown in FIG. 1, the fixed structure 12 of the conventional band structure 11 is made of a hard material. When the user wears the mask 1, the rigid fixing structure 12 is contacted and pressed. The user's temples cause great discomfort to the user and may even cause headaches, dizziness, and the like. Furthermore, the assembly of the fixed structure 12 with the strap structure 11 is not convenient.

In order to avoid these shortcomings, the manufacturer proposes a belt structure that does not require a fixed structure; since there is no fixed structure that would press the user's temples, the belt structure is more comfortable to wear. However, since the fixing structure is not provided, the hanging portion of the belt structure (for example, the hanging portion 111 shown in Fig. 1) cannot be appropriately restrained, so that the hanging portion is likely to be greatly shaken. The swaying suspension may hit the user's head or face and may be caught by other objects, causing the entire mask to be pulled off the user's head, creating a more serious hazard.

In view of the above, it is an urgent problem to be solved in the art to provide a belt structure which can improve at least one of the above-mentioned defects.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A primary object of the present invention is to provide a strap structure that allows a user to load comfortably and safely.

In order to achieve the above object, the belt structure disclosed in the present invention may comprise: a soft band having a hanging portion and a binding portion, the hanging portion being connected to the binding portion; and a soft fixing member and the soft beam The belt is integrally formed and fixed to the suspended portion of the flexible band, wherein the flexible fixing member is bent toward the restraining portion of the flexible band to surround the binding portion.

In order to achieve the above object, the belt structure disclosed in the present invention may further comprise: a soft band having a hanging portion and a binding portion, the hanging portion being connected to the binding portion; and a soft fixing member fixed to the The hanging portion of the soft band is bent toward the restraining portion of the soft band to enclose the restraining portion.

The above objects, technical features and advantages will be more apparent from the following description.

Please refer to FIGS. 2A and 2B, which are respectively two schematic views of a first preferred embodiment of the strap structure of the present invention. In the present embodiment, the band structure 2 can include a soft band 21 and a soft fixing member 22.

The manufacturing material of the soft band 21 or the soft fixing member 22 may include: Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE), Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) or silicone rubber. (silica gel) and other soft (soft) materials that are not likely to cause discomfort to the user. The hardness of the soft band 21 or the soft fixing member 22 may be 30 to 75 degrees Shore A, but is not limited thereto.

The flexible band 21 has a hanging portion 211 and a restraining portion 212, and the hanging portion 211 is connected to the binding portion 212. The hanging portion 211 is a portion where the soft band 21 is not worn by the user when the soft band 21 is worn by the user, and the restraining portion 212 is a portion where the soft band 21 is in contact with the user when worn by the user; or, in other words, the hanging portion 211 is at least the distal end portion of the soft band 21, and the restraining portion 212 is the other portion of the soft band 21.

The flexible fixing member 22 is integrally formed with the flexible band 21, that is, the soft band 21 and the soft fixing member 22 are formed of the same material at a time. In addition, the flexible fixing member 22 is fixed to the hanging portion 211 of the flexible band 21, so that the flexible fixing member 22 and the hanging portion 211 are not (or are not easily) relatively moved, in particular, there is no longitudinal direction along the flexible band 21. Relative movement.

Referring to FIG. 2A, before the band structure 2 is combined with a mask, a flipper or the like (not shown), the flexible fixing member 22 does not surround the restraining portion 212 of the soft band 21. Referring to FIG. 2B, when the band structure 2 is combined with a mask, a flipper or the like (not shown), the flexible fixing member 22 is bent toward the restraining portion 212 of the soft band 21 to enclose the restraining portion 212, so that The hanging portion 211 does not arbitrarily shake, and the hanging portion 211 can be stacked on the restraint portion 212.

There are several ways in which the flexible fixing member 22 is kept around the restraining portion 212, and the mode adopted in the present embodiment is as follows. The flexible fixing member 22 can have a first strap body 221 and a second strap body 222, and the first strap body 221 and the second strap body 222 are bent toward the binding portion 212 of the flexible strap 21, and are connected to each other. The tether portion 212 is enclosed in common. In order to stabilize the connection between the first strip 221 and the second strip 222, the first strip 221 may have a stud 2211 (the stud 2211 may have a barb structure), and the second strip 222 has a perforation 2221 The stud 2211 can be inserted into the through hole 2221 such that the first strip 221 is coupled to the second strip 222.

The above is the description of the belt structure 2 of the first preferred embodiment, and the belt structure of other preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below. For the sake of brevity, similarities between the other preferred embodiments and the first preferred embodiment, as well as other preferred embodiments, will not be described again.

Please refer to FIGS. 3A and 3B, which are respectively two schematic views of a second preferred embodiment of the band structure of the present invention. The difference between the belt structure 3 of the second embodiment and the belt structure 2 of the first embodiment is that the first belt body 221 of the belt structure 3 and the second belt body 222 are bundled so that the first belt body 221 Connected to the second strip 222. In addition, the first belt body 221 and the second belt body 222 may also be bonded (by glue or devil felt), joined or riveted, and the like.

It should be noted that in the first or second embodiment, the soft band 21 and the soft fixing member 22 (the first belt body 221 and the second belt body 222) may be fixed and coupled without being integrally formed. The soft band 21 and the soft fixing member 22 can be separately manufactured and then joined and fixed together (for example, by snapping, gluing, fusing, riveting, etc.). Further, the flexible fixing member 22 may be coupled and fixed to the flexible band 21 by means of overmolding or multiple encapsulation.

Please refer to FIGS. 4A and 4B, which are respectively two schematic views of a third preferred embodiment of the belt structure of the present invention. In the third embodiment, the strap structure 4 further includes a bump 23 and a set of rings 24, and the flexible fixing member 22 has only one strap 223. The bump 23 is disposed on the hanging portion 211 of the flexible band 21, and the bump 23 may have a barb structure. The collar 24 is disposed at one end of the belt body 223. Thus, after the strap 223 of the flexible fixing member 22 surrounds the binding portion 212, the collar 24 at the end of the strap 223 can cover the projection 23 on the binding portion 212, so that the strap 223 can remain around the binding portion 212.

Please refer to FIGS. 5A and 5B, which are respectively two schematic views of a fourth preferred embodiment of the belt structure of the present invention. In the fourth embodiment, the soft band 21 of the band structure 5 and the soft fixing member 22 are not integrally formed, but are separately manufactured, fixed and joined. In addition, the band structure 5 further includes two sets of rings 24 respectively disposed at both ends of the strip body 223 of the flexible fixing member 22. The collar 24 on one of the ends of the belt body 223 first covers the projection 23 on the hanging portion 211, and then the belt body 223 is bent again to surround the restraining portion 212; then, the collar on the other end of the belt body 223 24 also encloses the projection 23 on the suspended portion 211; thus, the strap 223 can remain enclosed around the restraint portion 212.

It should be noted that, in the third or fourth embodiment, the bump 23 can be integrally formed with the floating portion 211, so the bump 23 can also be made of a soft material. In addition, the bumps 23 may alternatively be formed integrally with the floating portion 211, but may be combined and fixed with the floating portion 211 by means of secondary encapsulation or multiple encapsulation; thus, the bumps 23 may be differently selected. The material of the flexible band 21 is manufactured such that the bump 23 can be a hard bump made of a hard material.

The collar 24 and the belt body 223 can also be integrally formed, so that the collar 24 can also be made of a soft material. The collar 24 may alternatively be formed integrally with the belt body 223, but may be combined and fixed with the belt body 223 by means of secondary or multiple injection. As such, the collar 24 can be fabricated from a different material than the strap 223 such that the collar 24 can be a rigid bump of a hard material.

The hard material used to manufacture the bump 23 or the collar 24 may be: polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (Polycarbonate, PC) or polyoxymethylene (POM). When the bump 23 or the collar 24 is a hard bump or a hard collar, the bonding force between the collar 24 and the bump 23 can be increased, so that the collar 24 is less likely to be separated from the bump 23.

In addition, in the above third embodiment (please refer to FIG. 4A or FIG. 4B), the flexible fixing member 22 (the belt body 223) and the soft band 21 need not be integrally formed, and the soft fixing member 22 can be sub-packaged. It is combined with the soft band 21 and fixed by means of overmolding or multiple shots.

In addition, the bump 23 and the collar 24 in the third or fourth embodiment can also be applied to the strap structure 2 in the first embodiment. The specific embodiment may be as follows: the two collars 24 respectively replace the straps. The protrusion 2211 of the first generation body 221 of the structure 2 and the through hole 2221 of the second belt body 222, and the protrusion 23 is disposed on the floating portion 211; when the first belt body 221 and the second belt body 222 surround the restraint portion 212 Thereafter, the two sleeves 24 on the ends of the first belt body 221 and the second belt body 222 can cover the bumps 23.

In summary, the manufacturing materials and the manner of bonding of the flexible fixing member 22, the bump 23, and the collar 24 in the third or fourth embodiment may be as follows:

The above is a description of the belt structure of the preferred embodiments of the present invention. Each belt structure has many characteristics, as listed below:

1. When the user wears the belt structure, the soft fixing member contacts the user's head, but because the soft structure is made of a soft material, it does not or is not easy to cause discomfort to the user's head;
