PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a runner fixing pin which can be easily inserted into hard cultivation ground without being deformed, and can surely fix a plant runner to the cultivation ground.SOLUTION: A runner fixing pin 1 has a tab part 2 and a leg part 3 which are integrally molded by synthetic resin. The leg part 3 comprises: a curved connection part 6 which is arranged continuously to a lower part of the tab part 2 and a pair of insertion legs 7 which are positioned on both sides of the tab part 2 in a width direction and extended below from both end parts of the curved connection part 6. The pair of insertion legs 7 comprises: linear parts 10 extending downward linearly in parallel with each other and sharp parts 11 each of which is continuously formed at a lower end part of the linear part 10. The linear part 10 comprises: a flange part 12 extending along an outside edge part continuously on both end parts of the curved connection part 6 and a web part 13 which extends along the flange part 12 while vertically extending inward from the flange part 12, and extends in a curved manner along a curvature of the curved connection part 6 in an upper end part.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】硬い培地にも、変形することなく容易に突き刺すことができ、植物のランナーを培地に確実に固定できるランナー固定ピンを提供する。【解決手段】ランナー固定ピン1は、合成樹脂で一体成形された摘まみ部2と脚部3とを有する。脚部3は、摘まみ部2の下部に連なる湾曲接続部6と、摘まみ部2の幅方向の両側に位置して湾曲接続部6の両端部から下方へ延出する一対の刺し込み脚7とを具備する。一対の刺し込み脚7は、互いに平行に直線状に下方へ延出する直線部10と、この直線部10の下端部に連続する尖鋭部11とを具備する。直線部10は、湾曲接続部6の両端部に連続して外側縁部に沿って延びるフランジ部12と、このフランジ部12から垂直に内側へ延出してフランジ部12に沿って延び、かつ上端部において湾曲接続部6の湾曲の内側に沿って湾曲して延びるウェブ部13とを具備する。【選択図】図1
