Means for Solving the Problems * 1 The technical means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problem is that "a first opening is provided at a joint on the upper side of the first pocket portion at the top, and A second opening and a third opening are provided to connect the upper pockets of the second pocket portion and the uppermost third pocket portion to the upper and lower pocket portions, respectively, and the openings are arranged vertically in series. Each of the openings is set to be larger than the length of the short side of the photograph inserted into the pocket portion, the first opening and the second opening are both larger than the size of the third opening, and the three-stage The transparent film for forming the pocket portion is made into a single transparent film as a whole. " Here, the width of each opening is set to be larger than the short side of the photograph inserted into the pocket portion and smaller than the length of the long side. Each of the openings is provided at each boundary joint so that a joint of a predetermined length is formed at both ends.

The above technical means operates as follows. In this album mount, a normal-sized photograph that can be stored in the upper and lower three-stage pockets is inserted in a landscape orientation from an insertion opening provided on one side of the pockets, and is joined by a joint at the lower side of each pocket. It is housed in a supported state. At this time, a second opening and a third opening are respectively formed at the joints on the lower sides of the first and second pocket portions, and the width of the openings is smaller than the long side of the normal size photograph. Since it is supported by the joints formed at both ends of the opening, it is stably accommodated in the lower pocket portion inserted in each pocket portion without falling off.

In each pocket, a first opening, a second opening, and a third opening having a width larger than the length of the short side of the normal-size photograph are provided vertically in series. Elongated paper sheets (for example, panoramic photographs, insert album mounts, etc.) longer than the width of the album mount and cannot be accommodated in the pocket portion are inserted vertically from the first opening, and the second and third openings are inserted. Can be accommodated in a state where it is inserted. At this time, the paper sheets are supported by the joints on the lower side of the third pocket portion, and the sides are held by the joints on both ends of each opening to form the first to third pocket portions. It is stably accommodated in the unit. Here, when the paper sheet corresponds to a length of at least one step up and down and two steps or less of the pocket part, the paper sheet has its lower end supported by the joint at the lower side of the third pocket part. Since it is accommodated in the formation portions of the second and third pocket portions, the first pocket portion in the upper stage can accommodate a normal-sized photograph.

Further, since the width of each of the first opening and the second opening is set to be larger than the width of the third opening, the width of the pocket portion is equal to or greater than one step and less than or equal to two steps. Similarly, a paper sheet having a width larger than the third opening (for example, a post card, a large-sized photograph, or the like) is inserted in the vertical direction from the first opening, the second opening is inserted, and the large three openings are joined. It can be accommodated in a state supported by the part. At this time, the paper sheets are supported by the joints formed at both ends of the third opening, and the sides thereof are held by the joints formed at both ends of the second opening. And is stably accommodated in the formation portion of the second pocket portion. Therefore, a normal-size photograph can be accommodated in the lower third pocket portion.

[0011] Further, when a paper sheet having a form in which the length of the short side is considerably smaller than the width of the first opening and the second opening which is set to be large, such as a panoramic photograph, is accommodated,
The sides of the third opening, which are set to have a width smaller than that of the first opening and the second opening, are held stably, so that they are stably accommodated. Thus, a normal-sized photograph, a paper sheet that is longer than the width of the album mount, and a paper sheet that has both longer and shorter sides than the normal-sized photograph are stably formed in the pocket portion forming portion. Can be accommodated.

[Others] * Item 2 In the item 1, the item “the width of the first opening and the second opening is made larger than the length of the short side of the fixed size post card, and the width of the third opening is made the same as the width of the post card. It is set to be smaller than the length of the short side of the card. ”
The post card inserted in the vertical direction from the opening is inserted through the second opening and is securely supported by the joints formed at both ends of the third opening, and is held by the joints at both ends of the second opening. Since the post card is accommodated in the first opening and the second pocket portion, the post card can be stably held.

* 3. In the paragraphs 1 or 2, "the openings are provided at positions deviated from the center of the pocket portion to the free end side of the mount,
The joining distance between the transparent film and the backing sheet from one edge of each opening to the insertion opening edge of the pocket portion is set to be larger than the joining distance following the other edge of the opening. '' Sheets such as panoramic photographs and postcards that are stored with the pocket part inserted vertically are stored with the free end side of the album mount close to them, so that the pages of the album book are easily turned. Since the length of the joint between the album mount and the transparent film on the insertion opening side of the pocket becomes large, the transparent film is difficult to be peeled off by the load of taking in and out of the photos into the pocket, and the durability of the album book is improved. Get higher.

* Item 4 In item 1, item 2 or item 3, the transparent film may be heat-welded to the backing sheet in a point-seal manner.

[0015]

According to the present invention having the above configuration, the following specific effects are obtained. A normal-size photo, a paper sheet that is longer than the width of the album mount, and a paper sheet that has both longer and shorter sides than the normal-size photograph are stably accommodated in the pocket forming section. Because it can be used with normal-sized photos, elongated paper sheets such as panoramic photos and insert album mounts, as well as paper sheets that are longer and wider than normal-sized photos such as postcards and large-format photos, etc. Can be collectively and stably accommodated.
Further, in addition to the above-described effects, in the second section, particularly, the postcard can be stably held. In item 3, the pages of the album book are easily turned, and the durability of the album book is high.
