Abstract

A binding tape ( 10 ) includes an intermediate layer ( 11 ), and a first surface layer ( 16 ) covering one surface of the intermediate layer ( 11 ). The intermediate layer ( 11 ) has a plurality of first linear members ( 12 ) arranged side by side at an angle with respect to a longitudinal direction (D 1 ) of the binding tape ( 10 ).

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A tape winding body including a binding tape to be wound around a to-be-bound object and configured to bind the to-be-bound object by connecting overlapped portions of the binding tape by a staple, the tape winding body comprising:
a tube member formed to have a hollow cylindrical shape whose center is a central axis and having an inner wall surface, an outer peripheral surface on which the binding tape is wound and one end face connecting the inner wall surface and the outer peripheral surface and facing toward a direction of the central axis; and
a film provided to face the end face and formed with a hole communicating with a region surrounded by the inner wall surface, wherein
the film is flexible to be elastically deformable, and
an end edge of the film defining the hole is a free end which protrudes from the end face towards the central axis, wherein a region of the film between the inner wall surface of the tube member and the free end of the film does not contact the tube member.

2. The tape winding body according to claim 1 , wherein
a minimum distance between the inner wall surface and the central axis is larger than a minimum distance between the end edge of the hole and the central axis, and
a protruding amount of the end edge of the hole from the end face is 1 mm or greater.

3. The tape winding body according to claim 1 , wherein a part of the film where a minimum distance between the inner wall surface and the central axis is larger than a minimum distance between the end edge of the hole and the central axis, has a thickness (T) equal to or larger than 0.05 mm and equal to or smaller than 2 mm in a direction along the central axis.

4. The tape winding body according to claim 1 , wherein the film is a film body arranged to be concentric with the central axis.

5. The tape winding body according to claim 1 , wherein the hole is concentric with the central axis.

6. The tape winding body according to claim 1 , wherein the film is a substantially circular film body.

7. The tape winding body according to claim 6 , wherein
the hole has a substantially circular shape, and
the hole is formed as an inner periphery of the film.

8. The tape winding body according to claim 6 , wherein an outer diameter of the film is formed to be smaller than an outer peripheral surface of the binding tape at start of use.

9. The tape winding body according to claim 1 , wherein the film is bonded to a side surface of the binding tape, and an adhesion area in which the film and side surface of the binding tape are bonded reduces from an outer periphery-side toward an inner periphery-side of the wound binding tape.

10. The tape winding body of claim 1 , wherein the region of the film between the inner wall surface of the tube member and the free end of the film includes a first surface facing in a first direction along the central axis and a second surface facing a second direction along the central axis, the first direction being opposite to the second direction, and
wherein neither the first surface nor the second surface contacts the tube member.

11. A tape winding body including a binding tape to be wound around a to-be-bound object and configured to bind the to-be-bound object by connecting overlapped portions of the binding tape by a staple, the tape winding body comprising:
a tube member formed to have a hollow cylindrical shape whose center is a central axis and having an inner wall surface, an outer peripheral surface on which the binding tape is wound and one end face connecting the inner wall surface and the outer peripheral surface and facing toward a direction of the central axis; and
a film provided to face the end face and formed with a hole communicating with a region surrounded by the inner wall surface, wherein
the film is flexible to be elastically deformable, and
the film has a rib portion protruding from the inner wall surface towards the central axis, the rib portion including a free end of the film, wherein a region of the film between the inner wall surface of the tube member and the free end of the film does not contact the tube member.

12. A tape winding body including a binding tape to be wound around a to-be-bound object and configured to bind the to-be-bound object by connecting overlapped portions of the binding tape by a staple, the tape winding body comprising:
a tube member formed to have a hollow cylindrical shape whose center is a central axis and having an inner wall surface, an outer peripheral surface on which the binding tape is wound and one end face connecting the inner wall surface and the outer peripheral surface and facing toward a direction of the central axis; and
a film provided to face the end face and formed with a hole communicating with a region surrounded by the inner wall surface, wherein
the film is flexible to be elastically deformable, and
an inner end portion of the film protrudes from the inner wall surface of the tube member, the inner end portion of the film being a free end of the film, wherein a region of the film between the inner wall surface of the tube member and the free end of the film does not contact the tube member.
