[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, picture books have been widely used as infant education or play equipment for infants. As such a picture book for infants, there is a picture book in which a plurality of paper pieces of the same shape are put in a superposed state, and one side edge of the paper piece bundle is bound with glue or the like.

[0003] However, in the above picture book, there is only a uniform way of enjoying, such as turning over a piece of paper one by one and enjoying the design drawn on the piece of paper, and for an infant whose interest changes one after another, the child may get bored quickly. There were many problems.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to change the combination of the patterns and character strings drawn on the front and back surfaces of a paper sheet according to the manner in which the paper sheet is inverted, so that the reader is not bored with various kinds of relations. It is an object of the present invention to provide a picture book in which designs, characters, and the like appear.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a picture book according to claim 1 of the present invention is provided with a display portion for displaying a design, characters, etc. on the front and back surfaces, and at the upper and lower center portions. A plurality of paper pieces formed with binding holes are superimposed in a state where there is a relationship with the display portion displayed on the front and back facing surfaces of the front and rear adjacent paper pieces, and the upper and lower binding holes of these paper pieces are aligned. It is characterized by being bound together by an elastic string.

A picture book according to a second aspect of the present invention is the picture book according to the first aspect, wherein the locking recesses of the elastic cords are formed at upper and lower portions on both side end faces of all the paper pieces. The picture book described in 1.

[0007]

Function: A desired number of paper bundles are gripped from the foremost part of a picture book formed by binding a plurality of paper fragments having binding holes formed in the upper and lower central portions together with an elastic cord, and the front side is extended while the elastic cord is extended. The bundle of paper is pulled forward with respect to the remaining rear bundle of paper. Then, the gripped front paper bundle is rotated, for example, clockwise by 90 degrees with the extended end of the stretchable cord in the stretched state, that is, the upper and lower binding holes of the last paper bundle of the gripped front paper bundle as a fulcrum. One end face of the front paper bundle abuts on the center of the frontmost paper bundle of the remaining rear paper bundle, that is, on the space between the upper and lower binding holes, and stands upright at right angles to the remaining rear paper bundle. On the back side of the last paper piece of the standing front side paper bundle, the extended stretchable cord portion comes into contact with the upper and lower edges of the back half of the paper piece from the upper and lower binding holes of the paper piece. .

From this state, if the front-side sheet bundle in the upright state is continuously rotated by 90 degrees in the same direction from the 90-degree rotation operation and turned upside down, the remaining rear-side sheet bundle at the time of inversion is left. One end face of the front-side paper bundle in the upright state, which is in contact with the center of the paper bundle, is locked to the stretchable cord portion pulled out from the upper and lower binding holes of the remaining rear-side paper bundle and the locking portion is used as a fulcrum. In the state in which the frontmost sheet bundle of the folded front-side sheet bundle is inverted to the back side, one half of the front-side sheet bundle is superimposed on one half of the remaining front-side sheet bundle of the rear-side sheet bundle, and the last of the inverted front-side sheet bundle is inverted. In this case, the back side of the sheet is completely exposed to the front side, and the other half surface of the frontmost sheet of the remaining rear sheet bundle is exposed to the other side of the sheet.

[0009] The above-mentioned paper piece, which is turned over to expose the back surface entirely to the front surface side, and the frontmost paper piece of the remaining rear paper sheet bundle are bound in a state where they are overlapped with each other in advance, and are placed before and after these. Since the patterns, characters, and the like of the display units provided on the front and back opposing surfaces of the adjacent paper pieces are associated with each other, these display units provide a single, richly organized display as a whole.

In addition, when the front sheet bundle held as described above is turned upside down and one half of the remaining rear sheet bundle is superimposed on one half of the remaining rear sheet bundle, the inverted front sheet bundle is turned over. The pulling force of the stretchable cord portion in contact with the upper and lower edges of the back surface acts to draw the reversed front paper bundle toward the other end of the remaining rear paper bundle, but it is reversed. As described above, one end face of the front paper bundle is locked to the stretchable cord portion pulled out from the upper and lower binding holes of the remaining rear paper bundle, so that the inverted front paper bundle is no longer remaining. It does not move to the other end of the rear paper bundle,
Maintain the state of being superimposed on one side of the remaining rear paper bundle.

Next, from this state, the protruding portion of the inverted front-side sheet bundle protruding from one half of the remaining rear-side sheet bundle to one side, that is, the frontmost sheet-side reversed to the back side. When the front-side sheet bundle that has been turned upside down is slightly raised, the one-side end face of the inverted front-side sheet bundle with respect to the stretchable cord portion that is pulled out from the upper and lower binding holes of the remaining rear-side sheet bundle is pressed. Due to the restoring force of the stretchable cord portion that is in contact with the upper and lower edges of the back surface of the front paper bundle that has been turned around with the stop portion as a fulcrum, the inverted front paper bundle has one end face that is one side of the remaining rear paper bundle. It automatically reverses the front and back while sliding toward the side edge, and returns to the original picture book state.
