Description

  The present invention relates to a photo frame for decorating a photo, and it has a very simple configuration that can be displayed on any wall, or can be decorated with any support conditions, such as standing on a desk using a stand. It consists of a single plate that can enhance the effect.

  Conventionally, for example, in order to decorate a photograph, a frame consisting mainly of a wooden frame is used, and a glass plate is fitted inside the frame, and the photograph is placed behind the glass plate, and the back plate A photo stand or a photo frame is widely used that is closed from the back with a back cover and the frame portion is suspended by a string or a support plate is arranged from the back and supported on a desk or the like.

  As a photo frame simplified than the format with the above-mentioned picture frame, as a format to decorate the photo by pasting it on the wall etc., it has a blank part that can accept the photo on the back of the transparent or translucent sheet, and the contour part A sticker photo frame provided with a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is known from US Pat.

  Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a thin photo frame having a sandwich structure in which a photograph is inserted and held between a front plate and a back plate each having a window portion having a required shape. In addition to this, on the transparent thin sheet, according to the outer dimensions of the photograph, it has a structure in which cuts to insert the four corners of the photograph are arranged, and when a part is cut behind the sheet and opened backward, it becomes a support leg A photo frame having a structure is disclosed in US Pat.

  However, since the photo frame known from Patent Document 1 is attached to a wall or the like like a sticker to decorate, if a photo is inserted into a window portion and attached to a target portion, for example, a wall, it remains as it is. It will be maintained indefinitely, and you must peel off the sticking part to replace it with a different photo. Of course, the marks remain where they were pasted, and when the frame is pasted again, the bonding function does not always work effectively. Therefore, it is inconvenient to sometimes replace the photo. In addition, even if a transparent film is attached to the front of the photograph, the transparency of the photograph decreases with time, so that the visibility of the photograph also decreases.

  The sandwich structure known in Patent Document 2 requires three types of sheets, a sheet with a window, a back sheet, and a space sheet as a spacer for receiving a photograph. Since one side is left and it is bonded at the peripheral edge, it seems simple but requires a lot of work.

  Further, the photo frame known from Patent Document 3 is provided with cuts for inserting four corners of a photograph into a transparent film without surrounding the photograph with a frame, and the corners are inserted into these cuts to fix and hold the photograph. However, there is a problem that a photograph is pulled out from the insertion portion by bending if the base film is not firm. In addition, since it is simple, there is a problem that the decorative property is poor, and the hobby effect of decorating and enjoying photographs is lacking.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to fix and hold a photograph (or a card or the like) to be displayed on a part of a mount with a simple sheet. It is an object of the present invention to provide a photo frame in which stop portions are cut out at a plurality of locations so that photographs can be rationally posted.

In order to achieve the above object, a photo frame according to the present invention comprises:
On a base plate formed of a thin plastic sheet or paperboard with a predetermined size, at least one position on each side of each side of the base plate, and a latch receiving piece that opens toward the center, leaving the base. Each is provided so as to get up from the mount, and the photograph to be displayed is held by the locking receiving piece.

  In the above invention, the latch receiving piece is provided so as to be separated from the mount by being cut in a convex shape leaving the base portion on the mount, and being movable in both front and back directions with respect to the mount. It is preferable that the display object placed on the mount can be sandwiched and held by the tip portion that is movable by the elastic force by causing the tip portion from the mount surface with the base as a base point. Moreover, in this invention, it is good also as a shape which becomes thin gradually from a base part to a front-end | tip part as said latching receiving piece.

  Further, the mount of the present invention can be folded in two along the inner crease line at an intermediate position in the long side direction, and the engagement receiving pieces are vertically and laterally separated from each other by a predetermined dimension on both sides via the crease line. It is preferable to provide a structure in which the tip portions are opposed to each other.

  According to the present invention, the leading ends of the locking receiving pieces provided on the top and bottom, left and right of the sheet are raised, and the four sides of the photograph to be posted are respectively sandwiched on the sheet. Thus, the photograph is fixed and held on the mount without the need for a separate fastener such as a tape or a seal. Therefore, by setting the outer dimensions of the mount slightly larger than the outer dimensions of the photo to be posted, a margin portion is formed around the photo held on the mount due to the difference in size between the mount and the posted photo. The photo frame is a simple and rational photo frame in which the blank portion serves as a picture frame and enhances the image of the posted photo. And since the frame of the photo is composed of a single thin mount, it can be hung on the wall surface when posted, or placed on a simple stand and decorated on a desk or the like.

  In addition, if you make it possible to fold the mount in half at the middle and post it on both sides, you can fold it a little on the crease line and decorate it directly on a desk etc. A photo frame that is simple and has a great effect can be obtained.

It is a front view of the photo frame concerning the present invention. It is an enlarged detail drawing of the principal part, (a) is a front view, (b) is a bb view sectional drawing. It is a figure showing the state which attached the photograph. It is a figure showing the aspect which made the photo frame attach a photograph to two surfaces.

  Next, specific embodiments of a photo frame according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  A photo frame 1 according to this embodiment is disposed so as to be opposed to each other vertically and horizontally in the figure of the mount 2 and a mount 2 formed of a plastic thin plate (for example, 0.6 mm) or paperboard in a rectangular shape of a predetermined size. And the latch receiving piece 3.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the locking receiving piece 3 is formed by cutting a part of the mount 1 into a convex shape with a cutting line 5 leaving a base 3 a, and the base 3 a is compared in plan view. The narrow projecting piece 4 is integrally formed at the center position of the main body 3b which is cut inwardly toward the free end side and has a trapezoidal shape in plan view, and becomes a convex shape as a whole. It is in shape.

  The locking receiving piece 3 is opposed to both the left and right and top and bottom so that the base 3a is located on the inner side with a predetermined dimension (23 mm in the embodiment, but not limited to this value) from each outer side of the mount 1. At the middle of each side. Each locking receiving piece 3 is set so that the end 3c of the trapezoidal portion substantially matches the outer dimension of the photograph 10 to be posted. In addition, in the outer position of each latching receiving piece 3, a hole 8 is provided, and is used when the mount 1 is suspended.

  The photo frame 1 of the present embodiment configured as described above has an outer dimension of 210 × 297 mm when the size of the photograph 10 to be posted is, for example, A size 4, so that the long side provided on the mount 1 The length between the main body 3b end sides 3c and 3c of the latch receiving pieces 3 and 3 positioned on the left and right of the direction is set to 210 mm, and the main body 3b end side of the lock receiving pieces 3 and 3 positioned up and down in the short side direction The dimension between 3c and 3c is 297 mm.

  In order to attach a photograph 10 (in this case, an A4 size photograph is intended) to the mount 1 set as described above, each locking receiving piece 3 is pushed up from the back side of the mount 1 to the front side with fingers. If it does so, the latching receiving piece 3 which was made movable by the cutting line 5 from the base part 3a will be raised to the surface side (refer FIG.2 (b)).

  In this way, each latch receiving piece 3 is raised and the main portion 3a and the projecting piece 4 are lifted above the surface of the mount 1 to form a gap C. When the edge of the photograph 10 is inserted into this gap C, the above-mentioned latch Since the base 3a is connected to the mount 1 in the receiving piece 3, the edge of the photograph 10 inserted by the projecting piece 4 connected to the main body 3a is suppressed by a restoring force (elastic force) to return to the original position. In this way, the edge of the photograph 10 is restrained by the locking receiving piece 3 at each position in four directions, so that the photograph 10 is fixed on the mount 1.

  In this way, the photograph 10 in which the four sides are fixedly held on the mount 1 by the locking receiving pieces 3 is strongly fixed by the elastic force generated by cutting and raising by the protruding pieces 4 of the respective locking receiving pieces 3. Since 4 is formed in a narrow width, the purpose can be achieved in a small space without hindering the screen of the photo 10, and the posted photo 10 can be stably held on the mount 1. .

  In addition, the mount 1 forms a relatively wide blank portion 1a around the photograph 10 to be posted, and the surrounding blank portion 1a has a frame-like appearance although it is flat and is displayed when it is decorated. There is an advantage that it plays a role of enhancing the photograph 10. And since this mount 1 is thin, for example, it is not bulky when it is mounted along the wall surface, and can be posted in a natural manner.

  Further, in order to attach to the wall surface of the photo frame 1, the photo frame 1 is hung by a metal fitting such as a hook using the punched hole 8 provided in the mount margin 1 a. Or you may make it fix with a push pin through the punching hole 8. FIG. Furthermore, you may make it mount on a desk, a shelf, etc. by receiving a mount with a well-known decoration receiver.

  In the above description, the A4 size photograph is described. However, the present invention can be applied to a photo frame in which the size of the mount is reduced and, for example, an L size photograph is posted. Therefore, in accordance with the gist of the present invention, the present invention can be applied to a photograph having an arbitrary size.

  Next, FIG. 4 shows a photo frame 1A that can hold a photograph on two sides with a mount that can be folded in half with another embodiment according to the present invention.

  This photo frame 1A can be displayed with two L-size photos 10 attached, for example, and can hold two photos 10 side by side at a predetermined interval, and is provided with a margin 1a around the photo frame 1A. One mount 2 having an outer dimension is provided with an inner crease line 6 at an intermediate position in the long side direction, and the latch receiving piece 3 similar to that of the above embodiment is formed on both sides with the inner crease line 6 as a boundary. Are cut out so as to oppose each other with a cut line 5 on the upper, lower, left and right sides, so that a photograph 10 to be decorated can be held with the projecting pieces 4 which hit the convex portions of the respective locking receiving pieces 3.

  With this configuration, if the photographs 10 are held on both sides with the inner fold line 6 as a boundary, the mount 2 is bent slightly inward along the inner fold line 6 to be on a table or the like. It can be displayed independently. Therefore, if two different photographs are attached in association with each other, the impression can be enhanced.

  Moreover, the photo frame of the present invention can be used not only for photographs but also for card holders where other cards are attached and posted. Therefore, in the case of the above-mentioned two-post type, it is possible to attach and impress a card on which one side has a photograph and an article related to the photograph.

  In the above description, the latch receiving piece 3 is described as being formed in a convex shape in plan view. However, the shape is not limited to this shape. For example, the movable tip portion such as a spindle shape or a water drop shape is narrow. Any shape having a function capable of holding a photograph with an elastic force may be used.
