[Action]

 The support such as a photograph of this invention is a support leg member in which a sloped surface is formed at the upper end with respect to a front leg member in which a pair of legs are integrally connected by a connecting member. Since it was pivotally supported on the front leg member in a state in which it could come into contact with the connecting member that connects the upper end of the support leg member, the support leg member pivots around the pivot point, and the support leg member is housed between the pair of legs. It can be made to stand by forming the same plane and folding and lowering the lower end of the supporting leg member rearward from the front leg member. At that time, the inclined surface provided on the upper end of the support leg member contacts with the back surface of the connecting member that connects the upper end portions of the front leg members, so that the rotation is restricted. There is no.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of a support such as a photograph of the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, a support 1 such as a photograph (hereinafter, simply referred to as a support) of the present invention has a pair of legs 3 and 3 each having a rectangular cross section, which are arranged in a V shape, and its upper end. Portion and the lower end portion are integrally connected by connecting members 4 and 5, and a supporting leg member 7 having a rectangular cross section for supporting the front leg member 2 from behind at a predetermined angle. It is composed of

The pair of legs 3 and 3 are opened in a V-shape with a predetermined gap x held between the upper ends thereof, and the upper and lower ends thereof are connected to connecting members 4 and 5, respectively. It is integrated by connecting with. The connecting member 4 at the upper end is made of a plate material that has a trapezoidal shape in order to connect the legs 3 and 3 that open in a V-shape, and the connecting member 5 at the lower end is for mounting an object such as a photograph placed on it. For this reason, it is composed of an elongated plate-like body having a predetermined width with the upper surface being a flat mounting surface 5a, and is fixed to the legs 3 and 3 by screws 6 as shown in FIG. It should be noted that the connecting member 5 may be of an appropriate size having a different mounting surface depending on the shape and size of the display to be mounted.

The upper end portion of the support leg member 7 is interposed in the gap x formed between the upper end portions of the legs 3 and 3, and the upper end portion of the support leg member 7 is connected to the connecting member 4 An inclined surface A is formed at a portion facing the back surface of the. That is, the upper end portion of the support leg member 7 is cut obliquely upward from the front surface to the back surface at an angle of about 45 ° to form an inclined surface A, as shown in FIG. The leg members 3, 3 are pivotally supported between the leg members 3, 3 by the shaft member 8 in a state of facing the back surface of the connecting member 4 for connecting the upper ends of the leg members 3, 3 at an angle of about 45 °.

[Effect of the invention]

 The support such as the photograph of this invention has a front leg member in which the upper end and the lower end are connected by a connecting member in a state where a pair of legs are opened in a V shape, and an inclined surface is formed at the upper end. Since the supporting leg member is axially supported between the legs at the upper end portion of the front leg member such that its inclined surface can contact the back surface of the connecting member that connects the upper end portions, A stand can be formed by opening the legs in a triangular shape with its pivotal support as a fulcrum. In this case, the supporting device of the present invention forms an inclined surface at a predetermined angle on the upper end portion of the supporting leg member, and the inclined surface contacts the back surface of the connecting member at the upper end portion connecting the pair of legs to each other. Since they are pivotally supported in contact with each other, the tilted surface of the supporting leg member comes into contact with the back surface of the connecting member, so that the rotation of the supporting leg member is restricted. The lower leg of the front leg member can be stably supported by being placed on the mounting surface of the connecting member at the lower end and leaning against and supporting the front leg member. This support has a great effect that it can add freshness to the display by supporting various displays displayed on the table, and that it can be manufactured at low cost due to its simple structure. .
