Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a plate stand, and more particularly to a plate stand that can reliably support a plate with a simple configuration.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, when setting up a plate that is a plate member such as a photograph, an advertising board, a forehead, a picture plate, etc. on a flat surface such as a desk, a supporting member is attached to the back surface, or the two plate members are hinged. In some cases, a hook is formed at the bottom of the sloped side opposite to the hinge, and the plate is supported on a flat surface such that the axis of the hinge is vertical.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the above-described conventional technique, when a supporting member is attached to the back surface, it is necessary to attach the members to all the plates even when exchanging the plates and exhibiting, and there is a problem that it takes time to manufacture the plates. Was. In addition, in the conventional plate stand, it is necessary to connect two plate-like members with hinges, which is troublesome in manufacturing, or has a problem that stability is poor because the bottom surface is a triangle. Was.
[0004]
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and to provide a plate stand that can be easily manufactured with a simple structure and that can reliably support a plate.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The plate stand of the present invention, when installed, a bottom that comes into contact with the installation surface, a hook provided near the front of the bottom, and when installed, the installation surface is parallel to the installation surface, and the front of the side is larger than the hook. It is characterized by comprising two plate-shaped members having an upper side located behind, a hole provided in the vicinity of the upper side, and a rod-like member slightly thinner than the hole.
[0006]
The plate stand of the present invention can be easily manufactured with a simple structure, and requires no labor since there is no assembling process. Also, since the bottom surface is rectangular, it can be stably supported.
[0007]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. FIG. 1 is a rear view showing a configuration in which a plate is supported using the plate stand of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a side view showing a configuration in which the plate is supported using the plate stand of the present invention.
[0008]
The plate stand is composed of two left and right plate members 20, 21 and a bar member 30 connecting them. The rod-shaped member 30 penetrates a hole slightly larger than the rod-shaped member provided in the vicinity of the upper side 25 of the two left and right plate-shaped members 20 and 21, and a brim is provided at both ends to prevent the member from falling off and falling off. ing.
[0009]
When using the plate stand, the bottom portions 24 of the two left and right plate members 20 and 21 are opened to the left and right until the hole and the rod-shaped member 30 come into contact with each other and cannot be further opened, and are placed on the plane 11. Then, the plate 10 is engaged with a hook 23 provided at a lower front part of the plate-shaped member, and the plate 10 is set up on a plate stand.
[0010]
FIG. 3 is a plan view and a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of the components constituting the plate stand of the present invention. The two left and right plate-like members 20 and 21 have the same shape as shown in the figure, and may be made of metal such as iron or aluminum, plastic, wood, or the like.
[0011]
The bottom 24 of the plate-like member adopts a curve whose central portion is slightly raised, but may be a straight line. The upper side 25 is parallel to a straight line connecting both ends in contact with the bottom installation surface, and is also parallel to a line connecting the centers of two circular holes 26 and 27 provided near the upper side.
[0012]
The hook 23 provided near the front lower part and the bottom part of the plate member is provided with two depressions for locking the plate, and the user can select the inclination angle of the plate 10.
[0013]
The front part of the upper side 25 is located behind the hook 23, and when supporting the plate, the plate 10 is engaged with the hook 23 of the plate-shaped member, and the plate 10 is brought into contact with the front part of the upper side 25. Stand by touching.
[0014]
In the present embodiment, the rod-shaped member 30 is composed of a screw 32 having a flange larger than the holes 25 and 26 and a rod-shaped member 31 having a circular cross section having a threaded hole. FIG. 3 shows a longitudinal section. The end of the rod 31 is provided with a flange similar to the screw 32. By using the screw, the bar-shaped member 30 and the two left and right plate-shaped members 20 and 21 can be separated from each other by removing the screw, so that it can be stored thinly during transportation or the like.
[0015]
The rod-shaped member 30 may be inseparable like a rivet, or may be one in which screws are attached to both ends of a cylindrical member having a threaded hole.
[0016]
FIG. 4 is a side view showing the configuration of another embodiment of the plate stand of the present invention. In the plate stand of the present invention, when the diameter of the bar-shaped member is constant, the inclination angle at the time of installation is determined by the size of the holes 26 and 27 provided in the plate-shaped member and the thickness of the plate-shaped member. Therefore, if a plurality of holes having different sizes are provided, the user can select a desired inclination by selecting a hole into which the rod 30 is inserted.
[0017]
FIG. 4A shows an example in which two types of holes having different sizes including large holes 40 and 41 and small holes 42 and 43 are provided. Larger holes 40 and 41 are used to increase the inclination, and smaller holes 42 and 43 are used to decrease the inclination. FIG. 4B is an example in which only one hole is provided, and even one hole can be supported. The number of holes may be three or more.
[0018]
FIG. 5 is a rear view showing the configuration of another embodiment of the plate stand of the present invention. As shown in the figure, by using the long bar-shaped member 50, the interval between the two left and right plate-shaped members 20, 21 can be set to an arbitrary length, and a horizontally long plate can be supported in a well-balanced manner.
[0019]
Although the embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed above, the present invention may have the following modifications. In the embodiment, the example in which the cross section of the rod-shaped member and the shape of the hole are circular is disclosed, but the cross section and the shape of the hole of the rod-shaped member may be a regular polygon such as a square, a rectangle, an ellipse, or the like.
[0020]
In the embodiment, the plate-shaped member having the configuration as shown in FIG. 3 is disclosed. However, it is the mutual positional relationship of the bottom, the hook, the upper side, and the hole that needs to be defined in the plate-shaped member. For example, the shape of the central portion of the plate member is arbitrary as long as strength (rigidity) is satisfied.
In the present invention, the plate refers to a plate-like member such as a photograph, an advertising board, a forehead, a picture plate, etc., but the present invention places any article other than those described above if the supported one is a plate-like member. Available for use.
[0021]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the plate stand of the present invention can be easily manufactured with a simple structure, and can be assembled only by screwing a screw by a user. There is. In addition, since the bottom surface is rectangular, the plate can be supported stably, and even if the installation surface has irregularities or twists, there is play between the plate member and the bar member, so each plate shape There is an effect that the member surely contacts the installation surface and does not rattle.
