(57) [Summary] [Problem] To provide a shoelace for sports shoes that has a sporty light feeling, is hardly stained, and does not loosen during walking. The shoelace is formed by attaching caulking fittings 2 to both ends of a thin cylindrical pipe 1 made of transparent or colored plastic such as vinyl or polyethylene, and enclosing a fluorescent paint 3 in a hollow portion of the pipe 1 as necessary. I have.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 This invention relates to shoelaces used for sports shoes and the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The conventional shoelace has a structure in which a swaging metal fitting is attached to both ends of a woven string made of cotton yarn or synthetic yarn woven in a round or flat shape, and thus has the following problems.

If muddy water or the like adheres in rainy weather, it tends to become dirty. When walking in Yamano, weed seeds and the like tend to adhere to shoelaces. Easy to loosen while walking. The design is simple and irrational. I can't give a sporty light feeling to my shoes.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 This invention was devised in order to solve the problems described in the prior art. The shoelace for sports shoes has a sporty light feeling, is hardly stained, and does not loosen during walking. It is intended to be provided.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The shoelace for sports shoes of the present invention is characterized in that caulking metal fittings are attached to both ends of a thin or cylindrical pipe made of transparent or colored plastic such as vinyl or polyethylene. The fluorescent paint is sealed in the hollow part of the pipe.

[0006]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 One embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a caulking fitting 2 is attached to both ends of a thin cylindrical pipe 1 made of plastic.

As the plastic, vinyl, polyethylene, or the like that is transparent or colored red, white, blue, yellow, green, black, or the like is used.

The caulking metal fitting 2 is provided with a tapered taper so that the shoelace can be easily passed through the shoelace through-hole, and a specially designed one can be used instead of a special design. The caulking fitting 2 is attached so as to seal both ends of the thin cylindrical pipe 1.

As a result, the air in the hollow portion of the thin cylindrical pipe 1 is confined, so that the thin cylindrical pipe 1 can be kept in an inflated state, and a lively and lively feeling is given to the shoelace.

Further, when tying the shoelace of the present invention, the hollow portion of the thin cylindrical pipe 1 is pressed at the knot portion, and the air inside is pushed right and left at that portion, forming a constricted state. In other words, since the thin cylindrical pipes 1 are fitted and tied to each other in the constricted portion, the constricted portion functions as a stopper for preventing loosening, and prevents the shoelace from loosening during walking.

In the case where there is no hollow portion in a thin cylindrical pipe, the constricted portion cannot be formed, so that the knot slips easily and becomes loose during exercise or walking, so that the knot is located. It is impossible to provide practical use unless a notch or rough surface is provided on the surface over 4 to 5 cm before and after. Also, if a notch or the like is provided, dust and the like will accumulate in this part, and it will be easy to become dirty. It cannot be put to practical use because its mechanical strength is weak and it may be cut during exercise or walking.

The outer diameter of the thin cylindrical pipe 1 is about 2 to 5 mm as a general-purpose product, but is not limited to this, and the outer diameter can be freely changed as necessary. .

As shown in FIG. 2B, a fluorescent paint 3 is sealed in the hollow portion of the thin cylindrical pipe 1 as necessary. Note that a retroreflective paint or the like may be sealed instead of the fluorescent paint 3.

When enclosing the fluorescent paint 3, a thin cylindrical pipe 1 made of transparent plastic is used. Since the fluorescent paint 3 is present in the hollow portion of the thin cylindrical pipe 1, the fluorescent paint 3 is not rubbed off by an external obstacle or the like and disappears at all. During the life of the pipe 1, it performs its function without any problems.

As shown in FIG. 2B, the fluorescent paint 3 is preferably sealed at a level of about half of the hollow portion of the thin cylindrical pipe 1.

In this way, at night, the thin cylindrical pipe 1 emits light, which informs a driver or the like of the presence of a pedestrian, or acts as an illumination to illuminate the feet when climbing stairs. I do.

[0017]

[Effect of the invention]

 Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects. It is made of plastic, reflects light, is glossy, and has a round bulge, giving it a volumey and sporty feel to shoes. It is plastic and water repellent, so it is hard to get dirty even if muddy water adheres. Even if it is soiled, it can be easily removed by wiping it with a cloth or the like, so that cleaning is easy. It emits light at night, which helps prevent traffic accidents. If you prepare several kinds of transparent and colored ones, you can change the accent of the same shoe appropriately according to mood and environment. Because of the hollow part, the neck formed in the knot acts as a stopper to prevent loosening, so it does not loosen during exercise or walking. It is plastic and stretchy, so it fits well and shoes are comfortable to wear. Weed seeds do not adhere to shoelaces when walking in Yamano.
