BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. FIG.
Shows a state where the paper box using the present invention is developed and viewed from the front side. Openings 3, 4a, 4 are provided at required portions of the paper box 2.
Notches 7 are provided in addition to b, 5, and 6. As shown in FIG. 2, a film unit with a lens is constituted by covering the unit main body 8 with the paper box 2, and the photographing lens 10 of the unit main body 8 is passed through the openings 3, 4a, 4b, 5, 6, and the notch 7. , Finder objective window 11,
Finder eyepiece window (not shown), shutter button 12,
Film counter window 13, film winding knob 1
4 is exposed to the outside. Therefore, the photographing operation can be performed with the paper box 2 covered, and the paper box 2 becomes the exterior of the film unit with the lens as it is.

A glue (including a general adhesive) 20 is applied to each of them. Further, the paper box 2 is provided with a crease 22 for mountain fold as shown by a dashed line, and a perforation 24 as shown by a broken line in each part. 8 is covered. When the perforation 25 is broken, the photographed film can be taken out.

The rear cover 28 is fixed to the margin 16a of the bottom cover 27 which covers the bottom of the unit body 8, and the extension extending from the back cover 28 is referred to as an extension surface 29. A perforation 26 is provided at the boundary between the back cover portion 28 and the extension surface 29 as shown by a broken line, and is used as a cut when the extension surface 29 is cut off. The extension surface 29 is provided with creases 25a to 25c for mountain folding indicated by dashed lines. On each of the extension surfaces 29a to 29d, explanations on handling and the like (details will be described later) are displayed for each content. Also, put a perforation at the fold 25,
The extension surfaces 29a to 29d may be individually detachable.

On the extension surface 29a, items necessary when the photographer performs photographing or when photographing is completed, such as a difference in photographing distance due to the weather, the number of photographed frames, an operation method during photographing,
Precautions for submitting to the photo lab at the end of shooting are displayed in detail. The extension surface 29b is provided with a ticket such as free or discount of a developer and a memo column.

In addition, the sentence "Please take me" is displayed in foreign languages for overseas travelers with the increase in the overseas travel population in recent years. Further, on the extension surface 29d, a conversation sentence used daily at a travel destination, a guide or a map of a famous place or a historic site, and the like are displayed.

The extension surfaces 29a to 29d on which these are displayed
Are folded in a snake-like shape (see FIG. 2 ) in the back cover part 28, packaged in a packaging bag (not shown), and arranged at the store.

The operation of the present configuration will be described. The film unit with a lens is purchased by a user or the like at a store or the like, and is taken out of a packaging bag when used. Extending that are folded to the back cover 28 of the film unit long surface 2
Each of the surfaces 9a to 29d is folded back, so that the user can read the description required by himself, and the used or unnecessary one can be arbitrarily separated.

The display of the extension surface 29a allows the user to take a proper photograph. Further, the ticket for free or discount of the developer provided on the extension surface 29b is cut off by the user and submitted to the developing laboratory at the same time as the film unit with the lens after photographing, so that the development fee is reduced or free. In the memo column, information or the like at the time of shooting can be recorded.

[0014] When the extended description 29c in which the instruction manual and the text "Please take me" are displayed in each language is presented, a person in that country can take a picture of himself / herself. Therefore, it is very convenient for travelers who cannot speak any language. In addition, people from all over the world can perform proper shooting.
