[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 According to the conventional example, in the case of a large menu board, especially in order to stably hold a vertically long one in a vertical position, the front two legs must be lengthened, and therefore the back of the entire stand is required. And it was inconvenient to handle, and there was a limit to downsizing. In addition, since the stand uses long materials as much as it becomes taller, there is room for improvement from the viewpoint of resource saving when using wood as a material. The purpose of this invention is to reduce the size and contribute to resource saving.

[0004]

 By rotating the stay to the upright position, the stay holds the back of the menu board, which is held upright on the support base, and serves to supplement the support function of the support base. By reducing the size of the support base, simplifying its handling, the cost can be reduced by reducing the size of the support base, unnecessary materials can be saved, and resource saving can be achieved.

[0006]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 1 to 5, the menu board stand according to the present invention includes a support 1, a menu board placing means 2, and a stay 3. The support table 1 includes a pair of front legs 4 and a pair of rear legs 5 supporting the front legs. The upper ends of the front and rear legs are connected to each other by hinges 6. The front leg 4 and the rear leg 5 are assembled from a rod member such as a wooden material. When the support base 1 is used, the front leg 4 and the rear leg 5 are opened by the hinge 6 as shown in FIG. 1 to realize a stable installation state, and can be folded during storage as shown in FIG. The upper and lower portions of the pair of front legs 4 are connected and reinforced by lateral reinforcing members 4a and 4b. Similarly, the upper and lower portions of the pair of rear legs 5 are connected and reinforced by the lateral reinforcing members 5a and 5b. The front leg 4 can receive the rear surface of the menu board B at the front front portion thereof. The board placing means 2 comprises a pin insertion hole 7 and a board placing pin 8 in the illustrated embodiment. A plurality of pin insertion holes 7 are formed in the pair of front legs 4 at equal intervals in the vertical direction. The board mounting pins 8 can be inserted into the pin insertion holes 7 as shown in FIGS. As shown in FIG. 5, the left and right opposing board placing pins 8 can be placed on the lower side of the menu board B in a state of being inserted into the pin insertion holes 7, and the lower end face thereof can be received. it can. The positions of the upper and lower pin insertion holes 7 into which the board mounting pins 8 are to be inserted are changed according to the size of the menu board B. As shown in FIG. 3, the stay 3 is provided so as to be housed in the support base 1. The stay 3 is attached to the back of a support shaft 9 whose upper end is disposed above the front leg 4 of the support base 1. The stay 3 is normally tilted downward as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, and its tip is located in a holding groove 4b1 formed in the lateral reinforcing member 4b. As shown in FIG. 2, the shaft portions 9a at both ends of the support shaft member 9 are rotatably inserted into support holes inside the upper portion of the front leg 4. Therefore, the stay 3 is rotatable with respect to the front leg 4 via the support shaft 9. The support base 1 is provided with stopper means 10 for regulating the rotation angle of the stay 3 and holding the standing state. The stopper means 10 shown in FIG. 1 is constituted by a stopper groove formed in a central portion of the lateral reinforcing member 4a which is a shaft member arranged in parallel with the support shaft member 9. When the stay 3 stands up in the stopper groove 10, the lower part thereof can be fitted. The stay 3 can protrude above the support base 1 in a standing state as shown in FIG. 1, can support the menu board B in the standing state, and supplements the function of supporting the front legs 4. The stay 3 supports the menu board B on the rear side of the back of the menu board B in the upper range of the menu board which cannot be received by the front side of the front legs 4 of the support base 1 (see FIG. 6). As a result, the height of the front leg 4 serving as the main body of the support base 1 is supplemented, and the height of the front leg can be kept low. In other words, the support base 1 can support the menu board B, which cannot be supported by the original support, by the presence of the stay 3 while maintaining its height. A hook 11 is provided on a lateral reinforcing member 5a above the rear leg 5 of the support base 1 via a connecting member 12 made of a wire having elasticity. As shown in FIG. 6, the hook 11 can be hooked on the upper side of the menu board B which is supported by the support table 1 to stably support the menu board. The lower end side of the connecting member 12 penetrates the horizontal reinforcing member 5a, the protruding end side is held by the horizontal reinforcing member by the adjusting member 13, and the distance from the horizontal reinforcing member 5a to the hook is adjusted.

Next, the method of use will be described. According to the size of the menu board B, first insert the board placing pins 8 into the pin insertion holes 7 in the left and right front legs 4 (in FIG. 4, the second-stage pin insertion holes 7 from the bottom). Lift it in the direction of the arrow and rotate it until it fits in the stopper groove 10 to bring it upright as shown by the solid line in FIG. At this time, the stay 3 is protruded from the support 1 in an upright state as shown in FIG. Finally, when the menu board B is placed on both board placing pins 8 as shown in FIG. 6 and leans against the front part of the front legs 4, the upper back of the menu board is supported by the stay 3. In the illustrated embodiment, since the stay 3 has a function of supporting the back of the menu board B, even if the height of the front legs 4 is lower than the size of the menu board B, the entire stand supports this kind of menu board. As a result, the height of the support base 1 can be reduced, and the whole can be reduced in size and size. The lateral reinforcing member 4a has the function of reinforcing the upper side of the front leg 4 and also has the stopper function of the stay 3 because of the provision of the stopper groove 10, so that the structure of the stand can be simplified. According to the example shown in FIG. 1, the height of the stand can be reduced by about 40 to 50% as compared with the conventional example.

[0008] The support base 1 is composed of two front legs 4 and two rear legs 5, but the number of rear legs may be one, and plate-like legs may be used instead of the legs having the configuration shown in the figure. In this plate-shaped leg, it is necessary to provide a space in the front leg so that the stay 3 can rotate. The support table 1 is foldable using a hinge 6 for convenient storage, but is not limited to the one using a hinge. In the board placing means, instead of the board placing pins 8, a bar or plate may be laterally moved to the front legs 4 to receive the lower side of the menu board B. In FIG. 2, the stay 3 is attached to a support shaft 9 which is rotatable about a shaft portion 9a, but the stay is attached to the support shaft 9 fixed to the support base 1 so as to be rotatable. Is also good. Also, as shown in FIG. 3, the upper end of the stay 3 is attached to the back of the support shaft 9, the tip is located in the holding groove 4b1 of the lateral reinforcing member 4b, and the entire stay 3 is stored in the support base 1. Although it is provided in a state where it fits, it is easy to fit in storage, but it is not necessarily limited to this example. Although the stopper means 10 is constituted by the stopper groove of the lateral reinforcing member 4a, it is not necessarily limited to this example.

[0009]

[Effect of the invention]

 According to the present invention, the stay is rotatably mounted on the support base, and the stay is provided with a function of supporting the menu board to supplement the support function of the support base. In addition, it is possible to reduce the size and size of the product, simplify its handling, reduce the cost by the size of the product, save unnecessary materials, and contribute to resource saving.
