Abstract
This tape attachment has: one or more crossbar parts that extend along a first direction; a pair of side support parts that support the crossbar parts; and a whistle part provided with a blowing hole and a discharge hole, the whistle part having a hollow section in which the pressure of air guided from the blowing hole is increased, the hollow section being positioned on the downstream side in the air passage direction in relation to the discharge hole, and the hollow section being provided in at least a part of the crossbar parts and the pair of side support parts. It is thereby possible to reduce the size of a tape attachment provided with a whistle function.
