The frame is hung on a wall surface and stands on a desk to serve as an indoor display. The above-mentioned frame is provided with a simple fragrance means by sprinkling perfume or the like on its constituent members or display objects, or by providing a fragrance or the like in the interior, so that in addition to the role as an indoor display, the fragrance can be enjoyed. There is an example in which the combination is provided (see, for example,
No. 5619, JP-A-09-024091).

[0003]

However, since the simple fragrance means as described above does not have a function of automatically adjusting the amount of fragrance emission, the fragrance gradually weakens over time, so There is a problem that it cannot be sustained with a certain strength. Also, in the case of sprinkling one of the perfumes etc., since the aroma component evaporates immediately, it does not endure the trouble of resprinkling, etc. Since the replacement and replacement work when a new fragrance is installed is troublesome, proper maintenance becomes difficult, and the function cannot be fully utilized due to the poor usability. Furthermore, when an easily available synthetic fragrance is used, the fragrance affects the display and causes discoloration of the printing ink,
There is a problem in that display objects such as paintings and photographs are harmed.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to easily replace and replace fragrances, and to ensure long-term sustainability with a constant fragrance intensity while minimizing the influence on the display.

In the frame formed by forming a window, the pocket of the holding frame is formed to have a depth dimension exceeding the thickness of the display object, and holds the thin plate-like aromatic body together with the display object on the back thereof, and An opening for emitting the aroma evaporating from the aromatic body to the outside is formed at the upper part of the holding frame as an insertion port for taking in and out the display object and the aromatic body, and further in the pocket from the side of the aromatic body. In addition to forming an aroma passage leading to the opening, the aroma is absorbed by a fragrance solution in which a fragrance is dissolved in a volatile solvent, and a thin plate-like absorption by a blotting paper structure such as a cushion ball for absorbing and holding the fragrance solution. Wood and this The front and back sides of the absorbent is characterized by being formed by covering with a blocking film for preventing volatilization. Further, the holding frame is characterized in that at least a part thereof is made of an absorbent made of a blotting paper structure such as a cushion ball.

In the frame having the above-described structure, the fragrance is held in a predetermined pocket, and the fragrance is radiated to the outside from the opening, so that the fragrance function is secured without impairing the display function as the frame by a simple structure. Can be
Moreover, since the fragrance can be easily attached to and detached from the insertion port, a new fragrance can be replenished and exchanged as needed.
In addition, the fragrance evaporating from the fragrance is radiated to the outside from the opening without being trapped in the pocket, and the influence of the fragrance on the printing ink is suppressed, so that the fragrance can be enjoyed without harming the display. it can.

[0007] The aromatic body is composed of a fragrance solution in which a fragrance is dissolved in a volatile solvent, a thin plate-shaped absorbent material such as a cushion ball for absorbing and holding the fragrance solution, and front and back surfaces of the absorbent material. By constituting by covering both sides with a barrier film for volatilization prevention, the aromatic body of the above configuration can absorb and hold a large amount of aroma solution by the absorbent, and the amount of the aroma solution volatilized by the barrier film is limited. Therefore, the fragrance can be maintained for a long time with a simple configuration without requiring a complicated adjustment mechanism. The opening of the pocket is formed at the upper part of the holding frame as an insertion port for taking in and out the display object and the fragrance, so that the fragrance can be efficiently diffused by a simple configuration that does not require a dedicated opening. Can be planned. By forming a fragrance passage from the side of the fragrance to the opening in the pocket, fragrance evaporating from the fragrance is quickly released to the outside via the fragrance passage, and the holding frame is at least one of them. Since the fragrance is absorbed by the absorbent of the holding frame even if the scent stays in the pocket, the influence of the fragrance on the printing ink is minimized by forming the part with the absorbent made of the absorbent paper structure such as the cushion ball. The print quality of the display can be maintained for a long time.
