Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a picture frame for displaying an exhibit such as a calligraphy, and more specifically, to provide a picture frame that can be hung and displayed without preparing another member.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Frames are usually displayed on a horizontal surface or hung on a vertical surface. At the time of the standing exhibition, support legs that support the picture frame, such as the shape of a “person,” are required. Some of these support legs are integrated into the picture frame to eliminate the risk of loss and facilitate handling.

[0003] However, there is no frame that incorporates what is necessary for hanging exhibition, for example, a hook or the like that is fixed to a wall surface. This is probably because there is a stereotype that picture frames and hooks are different things. Therefore, when hanging and exhibiting, it is necessary to prepare a hook separately, fix it at a predetermined position, and hang it directly or via a string, etc. In some cases, it was inconvenient.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved and means for solving them]

 Therefore, the main purpose of this invention is to provide a picture frame that can be used for hanging display without having to prepare additional members by incorporating what is necessary for hanging.

[0005] Means for that purpose is a picture frame that fits a back plate from the back side of the frame material and holds the display object therebetween, and has a hooking member that is fixed to a picture frame hanging position such as a wall surface. It is a picture frame formed with an engagement recess for engaging a member on the back plate.

It is preferable to form an angle adjusting mechanism between the engaging member and the engaging recess for adjusting the mutual angle in the plane direction of the frame.

[0007] Furthermore, it is preferable that the engaging recesses are formed at a plurality of locations with different directions so that the manner of hanging the picture frame can be changed.

[0008] Further, it is preferable that the hooking member has a hook portion for hooking a hanging string attached to the back side of the frame.

Further, in order to erect the frame, a support leg having a pair of left and right pivotally-moving pieces elastically displaced in the left-right direction is formed at an upper end portion, and an outer side of the above-mentioned pivotally-moving piece is provided with an outer side at an upper end thereof. The back plate is formed with a pivot shaft having a pivot hole projecting from the rear plate, and pivot holes for inserting the pivot shaft into the left and right side surfaces are formed in the back plate. It is good to set so that the above-mentioned latching member may be located between the above-mentioned pivot pieces.

[0010] Another means is to fit a back plate into the fitting portion from the back side of the frame material into a frame-shaped frame member having a substantially L-shaped cross section having an inner peripheral portion on the back side as a fitting portion. A frame that holds an exhibit and holds the slider, and a slider that moves a predetermined distance along a side is provided on an outer peripheral edge of the back plate, and an outer surface of the slider is formed so that an upper surface is lowered toward one side. An inclined engaging piece is protruded, and the inner surface of the frame member allows the engaging piece to be inserted when the back plate is fitted into the fitting portion, and the ceiling surface goes to one side. An engagement groove is formed so as to be inclined so as to become lower, and the upper surface of the engagement piece is slid on the ceiling surface of the engagement groove by moving the slider in one direction. Hook that can be fixed to the frame hanging position such as An engaging recess for engaging the engaging member is formed in the back plate, and a pair of left and right pivotally attaching pieces elastically displaced in the left-right direction is provided at the upper end to support the frame. A pivot shaft protruding outwardly at the upper end of the outer surface of the pivot piece, and having pivot holes on both left and right sides for inserting the pivot shaft. A fitting portion is formed on the back plate, the engaging recess is formed on the pivot portion, and the hanging member is a picture frame set so as to be located between the pivot pieces. .

[0011]

[Action and effect]

 That is, as described above, the engaging recess is formed in the back plate of the frame, and the engaging member fixed to the wall surface or the like is engaged with the engaging recess. In other words, the above-described engaging member is used. Since the frame is embedded in the frame, it is not necessary to separately prepare hooks and the like when the frame is hung for display, as in the past, and the work of the display proceeds smoothly. Moreover, in addition to the hanging display using a string or the like, a hanging display that is closely attached to a wall or the like can be displayed by engaging the engaging concave portion of the back plate with a locking member fixed to a wall or the like. The variety of exhibits will be expanded.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, when an angle adjusting mechanism for adjusting an angle between the engaging member and the engaging concave portion is formed, when the frame is directly hung on the engaging member, the engaging member can be properly mounted. It is possible to adjust after hanging the picture frame without having to fix it correctly and straight, so that workability is good and an attractive display can be performed. This is a remarkable effect that can be achieved only by incorporating the hanging member into the picture frame.

When the engaging recess is formed at a plurality of positions as in claim 3, for example, when the frame is rectangular, it is possible to appropriately select whether to display vertically or horizontally, and to further display the image. Variations spread.

When the hook portion is formed on the hanging member as described in claim 4, in addition to the hanging in which the frame is tightly attached to the wall as described above, the display can be performed via the hanging string, and the above-mentioned display can be performed. Since the hook portion of the hooking member is opened when hanging in such a manner that the hanging member is in close contact with the wall, an accessory such as a title or an explanation can be hung below the hanging frame.

If the support legs are attached as in claim 5, it is possible to perform an exhibition standing on a horizontal plane. In addition, an engaging recess for engaging the engaging member is formed on a pivot portion for pivotally attaching the support leg, and the engaging member is pivotally attached to the supporting leg when the engaging member is engaged with the engaging concave portion. Since it is located between the one ends, the support leg can be prevented from coming off when the engaging member is engaged. Therefore, a sufficiently strong support structure can be obtained even if the structure for pivotally connecting the support legs to the back plate is simplified. This effect is also a remarkable effect that can be achieved by incorporating the hanging member into the frame.

According to the structure of claim 6, in addition to achieving all the above-mentioned effects, even if the thickness of the display object is thick or thin, it can be appropriately held with an appropriate pressing force, and the display is possible. . In other words, in order to hold the exhibit, the exhibit or the back plate should be fitted from the back side into the fitting part of the frame material, and then the slider should be moved in one direction to a position where it can be moved. . The engagement piece of the slider slides in the engagement groove, and the inclined surface causes relative movement between the frame material and the back plate toward the front side of the frame. That is, the back plate moves to the front side as the slider moves.

The elastic projection 43 of the engaging member 31 engages with the concave surface portion 45a of the engaging concave portion 32, and the insertion piece 44 of the engaging member 31 and the convex and concave portions 44a, 46a of the pressing piece 46 of the engaging concave portion 32 mesh with each other. .

FIG. 11 is a sectional view showing an operation state of the angle adjusting mechanism 33 for adjusting the angle of the suspended frame 11 in the plane direction. That is, when the frame 11 is pressed down from the front, the back plate 13 pushes the elastic projection 43 of the hooking member 31 to be elastically displaced. Then, the projections 46a of the holding pieces 46 of the engagement recesses 32 are separated from the projections 44a of the insertion pieces 44 of the engaging member, and the engagement is released. When the frame 11 is tilted in this state, the frame 11 rotates around the elastic projection 43 and the angle of the frame 11 can be adjusted (see FIG. 12).

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the back plate 13 is provided with four string insertion portions 49 for connecting the hanging strings 34 so that the hanging strings 34 can be used for hanging. The frame 11 is formed so that it can be used when the frame 11 is suspended horizontally and vertically.

In the frame 11, the frame member 12 and the back plate 13 have the following configuration in order to be able to hold both the thick and thin exhibits 14 and 14. The slider 21 is formed on each of the four sides of the back plate 13 as is apparent from FIG. 2, and the depth of the fitting portion 12a of the frame member 12 is adjusted by the cover member 15, the auxiliary plate 16 and the back plate. 13 is set to be deeper than the total thickness, and has an engagement groove 22 on the inner peripheral surface.

The slider 211 slides a predetermined distance along the side, and has an engagement piece 23 protruding toward the frame member 12 on the outer surface. The engagement groove 22 allows the insertion of the engagement piece 23, and is formed along the side direction so as to correspond to the slide portion 24 of the slider 21. FIG. 3 is a vertical cross-sectional view of the picture frame 11. As shown in FIG. 3, the auxiliary plate 16 and the back plate 13 fitted in the fitting portion 12a of the frame member 12 are arranged so as to press the exhibit 14 toward the front. That is, the amount of pressing increases in proportion to the amount of movement of the slider 21.

On the upper surface 23a, projections and recesses 23b for locking are formed along a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction. As shown, the slide portion 24 of the back plate 13 is formed to be smaller by the thickness of the main body 21a, the upper surface, the lower surface, and the outer surface so as to be flush when the slider 21 is mounted.

When the slider 21 is located at the end opposite to the action direction a (see FIG. 5) of the slide portion 24, the engagement groove 23 is fitted with the engagement piece 23. 25 is formed in the same direction as the upper surface 23a of the engaging piece 23 so that the ceiling surface 22a becomes lower toward the operation direction a. Also, the projections and recesses 22b for locking are formed along a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction so that the frictional resistance between the engagement piece 23 and the upper surface 23a can be increased (the above is the configuration 6). .

The back surface of the back plate 13 may be formed so that necessary portions are depressed as shown in the figure, and the entire surface is formed flat. This is because the design feeling is good.

Hereinafter, a display example of the picture frame 11 will be described. FIG. 13 is an example in which the picture frame 11 is displayed so as to be in close contact with the wall surface 50. After the hanging member 31 is separated from the picture frame 11, the hanging member 31 is first nailed to the wall surface 50 made of gypsum board or the like. Stop with At this time, the hanging member 31 is made as straight as possible, but it is not necessary to be strict. Then, the engaging recess 32 of the back plate 13 of the frame 11 is engaged with the hook member 31. After the engagement, the angle adjustment mechanism 33 may be used to adjust the frame 11 to be straight.

When the picture frame 11 is displayed in this manner, the hook portion 35 of the hanging member 31 is not used, so that it can be used as shown in FIG. 14, for example. That is, another hanging string 51 is hung on the hook portion 35 and hung so that an appropriate plate 52 is located under the frame 11. On the plate 52, a description of the exhibit 14 held on the picture frame 11 is described.

FIG. 15 shows an example in which the picture frame 11 is displayed so as to be suspended from the wall face 50. After the hanging member 31 is separated from the picture frame 11, the picture frame 11 is first hung on the wall face 50 made of gypsum board or the like. The stop member 31 is nailed. Then, the central part of the hanging string 34 tied and tied to the string insertion hole 49 of the back plate 13 of the frame 11 is hooked on the hook 35 of the hooking member 31.

FIG. 16 shows an example in which the picture frame 11 is displayed so as to be in close contact with a wall surface 50 or the like made of a metal material to which the magnet is attracted. A magnet plate 53 is attached to an appropriate position such as an upper portion of the back plate 13 of the frame 11 via a double-sided tape. The magnet plate 53 may be integrated with the back surface of the hook member 31 in advance as shown in FIG. At this time, of course, a straight hole and an oblique hole for inserting the nail 40 are opened.

FIG. 18 shows an example in which the picture frame 11 is displayed on a horizontal surface such as a desk or a chest. In this case, the support leg 37 may be pivotally pulled out of the storage recess 47 and pulled out.

In order to hold the exhibit with the frame 11 configured as described above, the cover member 16, the exhibit 14, the auxiliary plate 16, and the back plate 13 are fitted in this order from the back side to the fitting portion 12 a of the frame material 12. Then, the slider 21 may be moved in one direction (operation direction a) to a movable position. The engaging piece 23 of the slider 21 slides in the engaging groove 22, and relative movement occurs between the frame member 12 and the back plate 13 by the mutual inclined surfaces (the upper surface 23a and the ceiling surface 22a). Moves to the front side. For this reason, it is possible to appropriately hold the exhibit 14 with an appropriate pressing force in accordance with the amount of movement of the slider 21 (the effect of the configuration 6). In addition, by interposing the auxiliary plate 16, even if the front side of the back plate 13 is uneven, the exhibit 14 can be held and displayed beautifully.

Further, an engagement recess 32 is formed in the back plate 13 of the frame 11, and the engaging member 31 fixed to a wall surface or the like is engaged with the engagement recess 32, so that the frame 11 is suspended. There is no need to separately prepare hooks, etc., as in the past, and the work of the exhibition proceeds smoothly. Moreover, in addition to the hanging display using a string or the like, the hanging display in which the engaging concave portion 32 of the back plate 13 is engaged with the locking member 31 fixed to the wall or the like so as to be in close contact with the wall or the like. And the variety of exhibitions can be expanded (the effect of the above configuration 1).

Further, when an angle adjusting mechanism 33 for adjusting the mutual angle between the hooking member 31 and the engaging recess 32 is formed, when the frame 11 is directly hooked on the hooking member 31, the hooking member 31 is used. It is possible to make adjustments after hanging the picture frame 11 without having to fix the camera correctly and straightly, so that the workability is good and an attractive display can be performed. This is a remarkable effect that can be achieved only by incorporating the hanging member 31 into the frame 11 (the effect of the configuration 2).

In addition, since the engagement recesses 32 are formed at a plurality of locations, when the frame 11 is rectangular, it is possible to appropriately display vertically or horizontally when the frame 11 is rectangular. Spreads (the effect of Configuration 3).

Further, when the hook portion 35 is formed on the hanging member 31, in addition to hanging the frame 11 in close contact with the wall as described above, display can be performed via the hanging string 34. As described above, since the hook portion 35 of the hanging member 31 is opened when the hanging member is in close contact with the wall as described above, an accessory such as a title or an explanation is provided below the hanging frame 11. Can also be suspended (the effect of the above-described configuration 4).

Further, since the support legs 37 are attached, an exhibition standing on a horizontal plane can be performed. In addition, an engaging concave portion 32 for engaging the engaging member 31 is formed in a pivotal attaching portion 39 for pivotally attaching the support leg 37, and the engaging member 32 is engaged when the engaging member 31 is engaged with the engaging concave portion 32. Since the support leg 37 is located between the pivotal attachment pieces 36, 36 of the support leg 37, the support leg 37 can be prevented from coming off when the engaging member 31 is engaged. Therefore, a sufficiently strong supporting structure can be obtained even if the structure for pivotally connecting the supporting leg 37 to the back plate 13 is simplified. This effect is also a remarkable effect that can be achieved by incorporating the hanging member 31 into the frame 11 (the effect of the above-described configuration 5).
