Description

  The present invention relates to a picture book, and in particular, a display hole near the picture display unit by turning a rotating plate on which a plurality of figures and the like are drawn while looking at the picture display unit of the paper opened by an infant or a child. In addition, the present invention relates to a picture book in which the figure or the like combined with the picture display unit is selectively displayed.

Conventionally, in this kind of picture book, a rotating plate (rotating part) is made of a thin sheet of paper, and the rotating plate is simply sandwiched between bag-like thin paper pages (for example, Patent Documents). 1). And the rotation fulcrum part of the rotating plate, that is, the shaft part is fixed to the inner surface of the page paper with a screw or the like. Further, a manual operation part (knob operation part) is provided on the outer peripheral part of the rotary plate so as to protrude to the outside of the page paper, and the manual operation part is operated with fingers to rotate the rotary plate. What has been done is the mainstream.
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 60-10700

  The picture book of Patent Document 1 has a structure in which a rotating plate is attached to each page paper. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a large number of rotating plates in accordance with the number of page sheets, and there is a drawback in that a lot of labor is required at the time of creating the rotating plates, resulting in high costs.

  In addition, since a thin sheet of paper is used as the rotating plate and the shaft portion of the rotating plate is fixed to the thin paper page with screws or the like, the strength of the rotating shaft portion itself is low. The attachment strength of the shaft portion to the page paper is small. For this reason, when the rotating plate is rotated, the rotating plate is bent or the shaft portion is easily damaged.

  Furthermore, since the thin rotating plate made of thin paper has a thin manual operation portion, when an infant or the like puts a finger on the manual operation portion and turns the rotating plate, the thin outer edge of the manual operation portion (the edge portion of the thin paper) Can easily cut into the fingers and hurt them. Furthermore, the thin manual operation unit is not easily pinched with fingers, and the fingers are easily slid on the surface of the manual operation unit, so that the rotation operability of the rotating plate is poor.

  As described above, the conventional picture book has various problems to be improved from the viewpoints of operability, safety in use, durability and the like in terms of functions during rotation.

  Therefore, technical problems to be solved in order to prevent damage to the rotating plate and the like and improve safety, operability and productivity during use arise, and the present invention solves the problems. For the purpose.

  The present invention has been proposed in order to achieve the above-mentioned object, and the invention according to claim 1 is applied to a peripheral portion of an inner surface of each of the front cover body and the back cover body through a spacer. A display window is opened at an appropriate location on the paper, and a through-hole is provided on the page paper at a location corresponding to the display window so that it can be seen from both sides. A rotating plate formed of thick paper is freely loosely fitted in a space formed between the paper and the rotating plate. The rotating plate rotates on the rotating plate, and is arbitrarily placed at a position corresponding to the display window. A picture book that displays the graphic of

  According to this configuration, when rotating the rotating plate, the cardboard rotating plate is rotated in the circumferential direction so that a desired figure or the like (variable display portion) appears selectively in the display hole for visual recognition. Is done. In this case, through holes for display that can be seen from both sides are provided at locations corresponding to the display windows of the page paper. Thus, when the page paper is opened, a variable display portion such as a graphic drawn on one rotating plate is displayed and displayed in common in the through hole for displaying the page paper.

  A second aspect of the present invention provides the picture book according to the first aspect, wherein the rotating plate has a peripheral portion formed in a corrugated shape.

  According to this configuration, since the corrugated portion is formed on the peripheral edge of the rotating plate, that is, the outer end surface of the manual operation unit, the rotating plate is operated to rotate the rotating plate by placing a finger on the corrugated portion of the manual operating unit. When doing so, the fingers are less likely to slip due to the non-slip uneven surface of the corrugated portion.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided the picture book according to the first or second aspect, wherein the inner surface of the spacer is formed along the peripheral edge of the rotating plate so as to assist the rotation of the rotating plate. provide.

  According to this configuration, the inner surface of the spacer functions as a guide surface for the rotating plate, and assists the smooth rotation of the rotating plate.

  In the invention according to claim 4, a rotation hole is formed in the central portion of the rotating plate, and a shaft portion formed of cardboard for loosely fitting into the rotation hole is connected to the front cover body and the back cover body, and The rotating plate is attached to both or one of the front cover body and the back cover body, and the rotation plate of the rotating plate is loosely fitted to the shaft portion so that the rotating plate is rotatable. A picture book according to claim 1, 2 or 3 is provided.

  According to this configuration, the shaft portion, which is the rotation center portion of the rotating plate, is adhered and firmly fixed to the front cover body and the back cover body. In other words, the cover sheets of the front cover body and the back cover body are supported and reinforced by the shaft portion, and the connection strength between the paper and the shaft portion is increased. Therefore, even when a large pressing force such as the weight of a plurality of page sheets acts on the corresponding paper, the curved deformation of the paper is prevented, so that there is no possibility that the gap between the space portions formed by the corresponding paper becomes narrow.

  In the invention according to claim 1, since a variable display section such as a figure of one rotating plate can be used in common with respect to a plurality of picture display sections of each page paper, There is no need to provide a plurality of rotating plates. Therefore, it is easy to create a rotating plate, the efficiency of picture book production (bookbinding) is increased, and the production cost can be reduced.

  Further, when the rotating plate is rotated, it is only necessary to lightly push the periphery of the rotating plate with a finger and rotate it, so that the rotating operability of the rotating plate is remarkably improved. In this case, the peripheral part of the rotating plate made of cardboard, that is, the manual operation part is thicker than the conventional one, and even if an infant or the like strongly presses the finger against the manual operation part, there is a risk of injury to the finger. There is no sex and it is safe.

  Furthermore, since the cardboard rotating plate itself has a high strength, even if a large external force is applied to the rotating plate, the rotating plate is hardly damaged.

  According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the fingers are less likely to slip due to the corrugated portion provided in the outer peripheral side manual operation portion of the rotating plate, in addition to the effect of the invention of the first aspect, the rotating plate It can be rotated easily and smoothly with a smaller force, so that the rotating operability and safety of use of the rotating plate are further improved.

  In the invention described in claim 3, since the inner surface of the spacer functions as a guide surface for the rotating plate, in addition to the effect of the invention described in claim 1 or 2, the rotating plate generates rattling. Smooth rotation can always be maintained. In this case, the rotating shaft portion of the rotating plate is not necessarily provided. If the shaft portion is omitted, the structure can be simplified and the production efficiency can be further improved.

  In the invention according to claim 4, since the connection strength between the paper and the shaft portion becomes high, and the shape of the space portion is kept constant even when a large pressing force is applied to the paper, Alternatively, in addition to the effects of the invention described in 3, the rotating plate accommodated in the space can always rotate smoothly without any trouble even if the number of page sheets is increased, and the usability is further improved as compared with the conventional case. It has a special effect.

  The present invention opens a display window at an appropriate portion of the paper that is attached to the peripheral edge of the inner surface of each of the front cover body and the back cover body via a spacer, and also displays the display window on the page paper. Are provided with through holes that can be seen from both sides, and a rotating plate made of thick paper is formed in the space formed between the front cover body and back cover body and the paper. The rotary plate is loosely fitted freely, and the rotary plate is rotated to display an arbitrary figure or the like at a position corresponding to the display window, so that the strength of the rotary plate and the shaft portion can be increased to be safe. The objective of being able to rotate and greatly improve durability, productivity, and functionality compared to conventional products has been realized.

  In this embodiment, the rotating plate is made of a thick slip sheet which is a paperboard, and by sandwiching the rotating plate in the cover body part, the strength and operability and safety of the rotating plate are dramatically improved, Long-term continuous service life is also improved. Further, by forming a corrugated portion such as a waveform on the circumferential portion of the rotating plate, the rotating plate can be easily rotated without damaging the fingers of an infant or the like, and the usability is improved in terms of function.

  An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. In the present embodiment, the rotating plate (rotating part), the shaft portion, the paper and the outer peripheral spacer as materials are all made of thick paper, and the display holes of the page paper are formed on a plurality of page papers by Thomson punching processing. By forming it in common, there is no need to sandwich a rotating plate for each of a plurality of page sheets, and even if a cover sheet or a plurality of page sheets are opened, the figure of the rotating plate etc. The variable display part appears in common. The thickness of the rotating plate is set to be thicker than that of the paper, and the thickness of the spacer and the shaft portion is set to be slightly thicker than that of the rotating plate.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is an ingenuity picture book for infants or children on which various designs are drawn. The picture book 1 binds a plurality of page pages 4 between a front cover 2 and a back cover 3. Are bound. Here, the front cover 2 and the back cover 3 have a double paper laminating structure having a rotating plate loading space (10), and the rotating plate 5 is rotatably accommodated in the space. Since the front cover 2 and the back cover 3 have the same configuration (accommodating paper), the configuration of the front cover 2 will be described below, and the description of the configuration of the back cover 3 will be omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the front cover 2 is formed by bonding an inner paper sheet (current paper) 6 and a front cover outer sheet paper (cover main body) 7, and the front paper 6 and the sheet paper 7 in FIG. A cut-out portion 8 having a substantially U-shape in plan view is formed in the central portion of the left side portion. The corresponding paper 6 and the sheet paper 7 are made of thick paper having a thickness of 0.8 to 1.2 mm in the illustrated example, but are not limited thereto.

In addition, narrow inner peripheral spacers 9 extending along the outer edge portions are provided on the inner side surfaces of the pair of papers 6 and sheet paper 7, and the spacers 9 are arranged as a pair of paper 6 and sheet paper 7. Are fixed to the outer peripheral edge except for the notch 8 by an adhesive. The spacer 9 is made of a slip sheet that is thicker than the thickness of the paper 6 and the sheet paper 7, and in the illustrated example, the thickness is set to about 2.0 to 2.6 mm, but the present invention is not limited to this.

  In this way, by interposing a thick paper spacer 9 between the pair of paper 6 and sheet paper 7 and arranging the paper 6 and sheet paper 7 on both side surfaces of the spacer 9 and bonding them together, Between the pair of paper 6 and sheet paper 7, a rotating plate loading space 10 having a gap of about 2.0 to 2.6 mm is formed. The inner surface of the spacer 9 is formed along the peripheral edge of the rotating plate 5 so as to assist the rotation of the rotating plate 5. Therefore, the planar view shape of the space portion 10 is formed in a circular shape corresponding to the substantially frame shape of the outer peripheral side spacer 9 in the illustrated example. In addition, the shape of the inner surface of the spacer 9 may be formed in an appropriate shape such as a square as necessary.

  The front cover 2 has a space 10 formed by interposing a thick spacer 9 between the cardboard paper 6 and the sheet paper 7 made of cardboard, so that a large pressing force on the paper 6 and the sheet paper 7, for example, Even if the self-weight pressure of all of the plurality of page sheets 4 acts, it is possible to prevent the paper 6 and the sheet paper 7 from being bent and deformed inward to narrow the gap of the space portion 10. Thereby, the gap width of the space 10 is always kept constant.

  A circular rotating plate 5 made of paperboard interleaving paper is provided in the space 10, and the thickness of the rotating plate 5 is set slightly smaller than the thickness of the spacer 9. Although the dimension is set to about 1.9 to 2.5 mm, it is of course not limited to this. Further, the diameter of the rotary plate 5 is set to be slightly smaller than the vertical dimension and the horizontal dimension of the device picture book 1.

  A circular rotary hole 11 is formed at the center of the rotary plate 5, and a shaft part 12 having a circular cross section is rotatably fitted through the rotary hole 11. The shaft portion 12 is made of a thick paper slightly thicker than the rotating plate 5, that is, a slip sheet having a thickness substantially the same as the thickness of the spacer 9. As shown in FIG. 2, the upper end surface and the lower end surface of the shaft portion 12 are integrally fixed to the center of the inner surface of both the paper 6 and the sheet paper 7 by an adhesive. Therefore, the rotary plate 5 is loosely fitted and accommodated so as to freely rotate around the shaft portion 12 in the space portion 10.

  A manual operation portion 13 is formed on the entire outer peripheral edge portion of the rotating plate 5, and a corrugated portion 13 a is formed on the outer end surface of the manual operation portion 13. Therefore, the rotary plate 5 can be easily rotated to a desired rotational position by simply placing a finger on the wave shape portion 13a of the manual operation unit 13 and lightly pressing the rotary plate 5 in the outer circumferential direction.

  A plurality of variable rotation display units 14 of different types such as graphics and characters are formed on one side or both sides of the rotation plate 5, and the plurality of display units 14 are arranged at an equal pitch along the outer peripheral edge of the rotation plate 5. It is arranged by. Specifically, the display unit 14 is arranged so as to be arranged at equal intervals on a circle having a constant radius centered on the shaft unit 12. In the configuration example of FIG. 1, for example, six types of numbers “1” to “6” are printed and displayed as display marks on the display unit 14.

  In this paper 6, which is the inner paper surface of the front cover 2, only one display window 15 for display is opened here, and the display window 15 corresponds to the position corresponding to the display unit 14 of the rotating plate 5, that is, the shaft. It is arranged at one place on a circle with a predetermined radius centered on the portion 12. The diameter of the display window 15 is set slightly larger than that of the display unit 14. Accordingly, by moving the rotating plate 5 to a predetermined rotational position, one of the plurality of display units 14 can be selectively displayed in the display window 15.

Furthermore, a picture drawing section (basic picture display section) 16 including characters and designs is drawn on the paper surface of the paper 6 and each page paper 4. For example, animals, characters, plants, food, and the like can be freely selected and used as the contents of the picture drawing unit 16. In the specific example of FIG. 1, animal pictures such as “frog” and “chick” are drawn.

  Furthermore, each of the plurality of page papers 4 is opened so that a through hole 17 can be seen from both sides, and the through hole 17 is formed through the same position of the plurality of page papers 4. The through holes 17 of each page 4 are disposed at locations corresponding to the display windows 15 of the front cover 2 by the rotation of the rotating plate 5, and the through holes 17 and the display windows 15 have dimensions. The shapes match each other. Accordingly, when an infant or the like opens an arbitrary page 4 having the through hole 17, any one of the numbers “1” to “6” of the display unit 14 is changed by the rotation operation of the rotating plate 5. Can appear inside.

  In the picture book 1 having the above configuration, for example, when an infant turns a front cover 2, as shown in FIG. 1, a cover inner side paper 6 and a page 4 having pictures of “frog” and “chick” are shown. Is opened left and right. Then, by looking at the pictures of one “frog” and two “chicks” drawn on this paper 6 and page 4, the number matching game, that is, the number of animals drawn on each page A game in which (correct answer) appears in the display window 15 and the through hole 17 can be played. In this case, the rotary plate 5 on the front cover 2 side and the rotary plate 5 on the back cover 3 side are rotated to predetermined positions, and the numbers “1” are respectively displayed in the paper side display window 15 and the page paper side through hole 17. If “2” appears and is displayed, this is the correct answer.

  In the configuration example of FIG. 1, numbers are given as an example of display marks on the display unit 14 so that a number matching game can be performed. However, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, pictures of this paper 6 and page 4 Depending on the type of the drawing unit 16 or the contents of the question related to the drawing unit 16, it can be replaced with another visual display mark such as a character, a pattern, a symbol, a color pattern, or a character.

  FIG. 3 shows another mode example in which a character (hiragana) is cited as a display mark of the display unit 14 so that a character matching game can be performed. In this character matching game, a picture of “Cat” is drawn on the picture drawing sections 16 on the left and right pages. Therefore, if the characters “ne” and “ko” printed on the display unit 14 are displayed in the display window 15 and the penetrating hole 17 at the two left and right positions by the same rotation operation as described above, this is correct. It becomes.

  FIG. 4 shows still another example in which a favorite food matching game can be performed by giving a symbol of a favorite food as an indication mark of the display unit 14. In this favorite food matching game, pictures of “Ponta” and “Kusuke” are drawn in the picture drawing sections 16 on the left and right, respectively. Accordingly, the “carrot” and “honey” pictures printed on the display unit 14 can be displayed and displayed in the left and right two display windows 15 and through holes 17 respectively. This is the correct answer.

  Thus, in the configuration example of the number matching game in FIG. 1, for example, when the rotating plate 5 is rotated so that the number “1” appears in the display window 15 of the paper 6, the manual operation unit 13 is used. The operation is performed by pushing the finger toward the outer periphery of the rotating plate 5 with a finger. That is, each time the manual operation unit 13 is pushed with a finger and the rotating plate 5 is moved to a predetermined position around the shaft unit 12, “1” of the display unit 14 is moved to the position of the display window 15, Appears on the screen.

  According to the present embodiment, the rotating plate 5 and the shaft portion 12 are made of cardboard having a required thickness, and the shaft portion 12 is bonded to the inner surface of the cardboard making paper 6 and the sheet paper 7 of the front cover 2 with an adhesive. Since they are integrally fixed, the fixing strength of the shaft portion 12 of the rotating plate 5 with respect to the paper 6 and the sheet paper 7 is remarkably increased, and the strength of the front cover 2 and the rotating plate 5 itself is increased.

Accordingly, the rotation / fitting state between the rotation hole 11 and the shaft portion 12 of the rotating plate 5 is always stably maintained,
The rotation of the rotary plate 5 becomes smooth, and the shaft portion 12 is prevented from being damaged or damaged during the rotation operation seen in the conventional pin support system. Moreover, since the thickness dimension of the manual operation part 13 used as a finger pressing part becomes large, and the wave shape part 13a for anti-slip is formed in the outer surface of the manual operation part 13, the manual operation part 13 by an infant's finger is formed. It becomes easy to perform the rotation operation. Therefore, there is no fear that a conventional infant may injure fingers during the rotation operation.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the display through hole 17 is opened at the same position of the plurality of page sheets 4, so that the display portion 14 of the rotating plate 5 can appear in common in the through hole 17. . Therefore, since it is not necessary to sandwich the rotating plate 5 for each page paper 4 of each sheet, there is no need to add a special bookbinding process when binding each page paper 4, and a normal simple slip sheet book. Bookbinding can be easily performed according to the processing steps. Thus, as compared with the conventional method of sandwiching each page, the processing process of the rotating plate 5 is simplified, and the productivity at the time of binding the picture book 1 is greatly improved.

  The present invention should not be limited to the above examples. For example, in the above embodiment, the rotating plate 5 is provided on the front cover 2 or the back cover 3, but the rotating plate 5 may be provided on any one or more of the plurality of page sheets 4. That is, the paper 6 and the sheet paper 7 on which the display window 15 is formed are bonded together via the spacer 9 to create a page paper (a storage paper structure having a storage space) 4. The rotary plate 5 can be freely loosely fitted in the space between the papers 7.

  It is also possible to form display portions 14 on both front and back sides of the rotary plate 5 and to provide display windows 15 for displaying the display portions 14 on both side surfaces from both the inside and outside surfaces of the cover. . In this case, the types of numbers, figures, characters, etc. printed on the display units 14 on both sides may be different from each other.

  It should be noted that the present invention can be variously modified without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and the present invention naturally extends to the modified ones.
