Description

The present invention relates to a pop-up three-dimensional picture book in which you can touch an object that jumps out.

Conventionally, there is a picture book called a pop-up picture book or a three-dimensional picture book.

Pop-up picture books or three-dimensional picture books that can be found in bookstores have the text of a story written on either the left or right page or the text written on top of a picture. When the opposite page with the text is opened, the paper designed to represent the folded story becomes three-dimensional. Or, there are some that are folded over the left and right pages and become three-dimensional, but there are few pictures that match the expression of the story, and the three-dimensional ones are not interesting or you can feel the content of the story. It's a thing, and even if you read a picture book, you won't be excited and excited. We devised a picture book with a sense of reality that captures the hearts of children who want to read more and touch the story.

According to the present invention, the pages of the pop-up picture book are provided with spring springs or the like to which the subject matter of the story is attached, and this is the pop-up picture book.

A picture book in which the story of the picture book can be understood well, the intention and expression of the person who wrote it can be seen three-dimensionally, and the subject matter of the story can be touched. The elastic body is stretched and the subject accessory is attached to the tip, so not only can you see it with your eyes, but you can also touch it with your hand. It is a picture book.
Even if the story of the picture book changes and the subject matter changes, a pop-up picture book can be created with that object as the theme.

There are pop-up picture books that simply turn paper into three-dimensional objects, but there are none that allow you to be surprised by the mechanism that pops open, read the story, look at the pictures, and get in touch with the theme. The picture book I devised is actually the texture of the subject matter and the idea of popping out to make the child interested and curious, and the child enters the picture book depending on the child who sees it. In fact, when I showed it to my child (7 years old), I immediately started peeling off the subject of the story and became interested.

When you read to a blind child, you can actually touch and feel the subject matter, feel the difference in shape, enjoy the fun and interest, and become the main character of the story.

Overall view when the picture book is opened. A push spring popping out with a theme from the page where the picture was drawn. Front view of the book when closed. A figure fastened with a belt with a magnet on the cover of a closed picture book. Illustration of a pop-up spiral spring with a theme. A diagram of the inside spiral spring of a pop-up device with a theme. Drawing of a spring with paper. A top view of a paper spring. A picture with Velcro attached to attach the spring to the page. The figure which provided the recess in the page of the part which attaches a spring.

This invention will be explained using a picture book with fallen leaves as an example, but in the horizontally written picture book shown in FIG. A compression spring 5, which is an elastic body, is attached inside, and an imitation of fallen leaves of the theme 6 is attached (see FIG. 2). In the case of vertically written picture books, the text is written on the right page and the picture is drawn on the left page and a spring is attached. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a state in which the picture book is closed.

In fact, I made several types of clay that resembled fallen leaves that I had picked up, added a rough texture to give it some color, and attached it to a paper compression spring. Every time you open a page as you read, a different fallen leaf appears and stirs up the fun.

The pop-up spring can be made of plastic, paper, or any other material that won't hurt children. The soft spring 2 made of resin or silicon may be replaced by a spiral inside spring 8 as shown in FIG. 5 in order to reduce the thickness of the book.
The diameter of the push spring is large enough to hide the theme of the story, considering the size of the book. Also, the height changes according to the content of the story. For example, when the content is blown by the wind, it would be interesting to have about 3 centimeters more than that. If there is no movement, it should be about 1 cm.

The fallen leaves attached to the push spring, which is a theme that requires a three-dimensional effect, can be folded by using an elastic material (elastic material), and when the book is closed, the three-dimensional effect is pushed. Flattening the book reduces the thickness of the book.

Coloring the fallen leaves and using a paint that makes you feel the fallen leaves when you touch the surface will give a realistic feeling.

The pressing spring that is brought into close contact with the page 2 on which the picture is drawn and the subject to be attached are removable Velcro 7 as shown in Figs. You can use film.

In the case of a paper spring 9 as shown in FIG. 6, which uses paper as the material for the push spring, the paper is coated with a film to increase its strength and folded alternately to form a spring. As shown in FIG. 7 in a plan view, a paper spring 10 having a square shape with slightly rounded corners provides a sense of stability and makes it easy to attach objects that are the subject of a story. Even when the page is closed, it is thin. Paper made of shape memory material is also considered to be good.

Insects, fish, vegetables, flowers, pressed flowers, etc. can be interesting by changing the subject matter.

When drawing a picture, pay attention to the place where the spring is attached so that the spring part does not shift when the book is closed (see Fig. 3).

The thickness or quality of the paper on the pages of a picture book should be thick, or the paper should be mixed with a heavy material so that the springs on each page are not stretched. .

As shown in FIG. 9, the thickness of the page can be reduced by providing a recess 11 in the portion where the compression spring is attached and placing the spring there.

When the picture book is closed, a tape 12 made of a film material with a magnet 13 attached to its tip is fixed to the cover (Fig. 4) so that the pages do not scatter even if the book is dropped. In addition, even if you hook the picture book placed with your hand or part of your clothes, the page will not open.
