NECK STRAP STRUCTURE AND AUXILIARY MEMBER THEREOF
An auxiliary member for a neck-hanging article is provided. The neck-hanging article has a strap body. The auxiliary member includes a first end and a second end. The first end is coupled to a contact part of the strap body. The second end is detachably coupled to an object loaded by a user, so that a stress exerted by the strap body is diverted from a neck of the user to the loaded object.
The present application is a nonprovisional application claiming benefit from a prior-filed provisional application bearing a Ser. No. 62/200,860 and filed Aug. 4, 2015, the entity of which is incorporated herein for reference.
FIELD OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention relates to a neck strap structure and an auxiliary member thereof, and more particularly to a neck strap structure for carrying a camera and an auxiliary member thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONTherefore, there is a need to provide a novel neck strap structure in order to overcome the above drawbacks.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention provides an auxiliary member and a neck strap structure for alleviating the discomfort of carrying the neck-hanging article.
In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, there is provided an auxiliary member for a neck-hanging article with a strap body. The auxiliary member includes a first end and a second end. The first end is coupled to the strap body. The second end is detachably coupled to an object loaded by a user, so that a stress exerted by the strap body is diverted from a neck of the user to the loaded object.
In an embodiment, the loaded object has a hang ring or a handle, wherein the second end of the auxiliary member is detachably coupled to the hang ring or the handle.
In an embodiment, the first end of the auxiliary member has a first collar, and the first collar is movably coupled to a contact part of the strap body.
In an embodiment, the first end of the auxiliary member has at least one set of movable snap fasteners that constitute the first collar.
In an embodiment, the first end of the auxiliary member is fixed on the strap body by a stitching means, a gluing means or a snap-fit means, or the first end of the auxiliary member is integrally formed with the strap body.
In an embodiment, the second end of the auxiliary member has a second collar, which is constituted by one or more sets of movable snap fasteners.
In an embodiment, the second end of the auxiliary member has a hook, wherein the hook is penetrated through a hang ring or a handle of the loaded object, or the hook is penetrated through a perforation of the hang ring or the handle of the loaded object.
In an embodiment, the second end of the auxiliary member has a buckling element or a clipping structure that is coupled to a movable snap fastener of the loaded object.
In an embodiment, the second end of the auxiliary member has a clipping structure, and the clipping structure is coupled to a hang ring or a handle of the loaded object.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a neck strap structure. The neck strap structure includes a strap body and an auxiliary member. The strap body has a contact part, wherein two ends of the strap body are fixed on a neck-hanging article. A first end of the auxiliary member is coupled to the contact part of the strap body, and a second end of the auxiliary member is coupled to an object loaded by a user, so that a stress exerted by the strap body is diverted from a neck of the user to the loaded object.
In an embodiment, the first end of the auxiliary member is fixed on the strap body by a stitching means, a gluing means or a snap-fit means, or the first end of the auxiliary member is integrally formed with the strap body.
The above objects and advantages of the present invention will become more readily apparent to those ordinarily skilled in the art after reviewing the following detailed description and accompanying drawings, in which:
The present invention will now be described more specifically with reference to the following embodiments. It is to be noted that the following descriptions of preferred embodiments of this invention are presented herein for purpose of illustration and description only. It is not intended to be exhaustive or to be limited to the precise form disclosed.
The present invention provides a strap structure with an auxiliary member. Hereinafter, some examples of the strap structure with the auxiliary member will be illustrated in more details.
From the above descriptions, the present invention provides an auxiliary member. The auxiliary member can be widely applied to a neck-hanging article such as a camera or a telescope. By the auxiliary member of the present invention, the discomfort of carrying the neck-hanging article can be effectively alleviated. Consequently, the auxiliary member of the present invention is industrially applicable.
While the invention has been described in terms of what is presently considered to be the most practical and preferred embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention needs not be limited to the disclosed embodiments. On the contrary, it is intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims which are to be accorded with the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and similar structures.
