  In order to stably support and stand the flagpole with this pedestal, it is necessary to set the height of the pedestal so that a substantial portion of the base of the flagpole is inserted into the hole. However, this type of pedestal becomes larger when the height is increased, because it is necessary to set a large bottom surface in order to eliminate the instability associated therewith, and it is also necessary to increase the amount of stored water. Handling becomes difficult. In addition, since such pedestals emphasize the functional purpose of stably supporting the flagpole and not pursuing the appearance, if many are installed, the aesthetics of the place where they are installed will be impaired. Also become.

  An object of the present invention is to conceal a pedestal for supporting a flagpole and to make the flagpole stand up stably.

  The present invention relates to an auxiliary tool for stably standing a flagpole whose base is supported by a pedestal. This standing support tool is composed of a triangular prism body that can be inserted and removed from the pedestal, and this triangular prism body is formed on one of the three sides connecting the surfaces corresponding to the bottom surface and can insert at least one flagpole. It has two first holes, and a pedestal can be arranged on the inner surface of the side facing the first holes.

  The triangular prism body is installed by a side surface facing the first hole at a predetermined place where the flagpole is erected. As for the triangular prism body installed in this way, a base is arrange | positioned on the inner surface of the side surface facing a 1st hole part in the inside. Thereby, the pedestal is concealed in the triangular prism. When the base of the flagpole is inserted into the triangular prism from the first hole and supported by the pedestal, the base of the flagpole is supported by the pedestal, and at the same time, the upper part of the base is also supported by the first hole. Therefore, when this standing assisting tool is used, the flagpole is supported at two points of the pedestal and the first hole, and stands up stably.

  In the standing assistance tool of the present invention, the triangular prism body has, for example, an outer surface of at least one side surface forming a side having the first hole portion set as a display surface. When advertisements and various information are displayed on this display surface, the advertisement is installed and displayed on the display surface of the standing assist tool in addition to the advertisement and information provided by the flag. The guidance effect is easily enhanced.

  Further, in the standing assisting device of the present invention, the triangular prism body is formed into, for example, an isosceles triangle in which the apex angle of the surface corresponding to the bottom surface is set to a substantially right angle, and two apex angles are formed. It has a first hole on the side where the side faces meet, and further has at least one second hole into which the flagpole can be inserted on the side facing the first hole.

  If this standing assistance tool is used, the flagpole will be supported at two points, the base and the first hole, as described above, and will stand up stably. Moreover, the triangular prism body of this standing assistance tool can also be installed in a predetermined place by one side surface of the two side surfaces forming the apex angle of the surface corresponding to the bottom surface. In the triangular prism body thus installed, a pedestal is disposed on the inner side surface of the installed side surface. Thereby, the pedestal is concealed in the triangular prism. When the base of the flagpole is inserted into the triangular prism from the second hole and supported by the pedestal, the base of the flagpole is supported by the pedestal, and at the same time, the upper part of the base is also supported by the second hole. Therefore, when this standing assisting tool is used, the flagpole is supported at either two points of the base and the first hole or two points of the base and the second hole, and stands up stably. Here, since the two side surfaces forming the apex angle of the surface corresponding to the bottom surface of the triangular prism body are smaller in area than the side surfaces facing the first hole portion, the occupied area can be reduced in a predetermined place.

  In addition, as described above, in the triangular prism body in which the surface corresponding to the bottom surface is formed in an isosceles triangle, for example, the outer surface of the side surface facing the first hole is set as the display surface. Since the side facing the first hole has a larger area than the other side and can emphasize the display of advertisements and various guides, as described above, the other side of this triangular prism body is used as the installation surface, and the pedestal If the flagpole is supported at two points of the second hole, the advertising effect and the guidance effect can be further enhanced.

  In the standing assisting tool of the present invention, the triangular prism body is usually capable of separating two side surfaces forming one side of the three sides connecting the surfaces corresponding to the bottom surface, and separating the two side surfaces. It is sometimes preferred that it can be developed in a planar shape. Since this standing assistance tool can be developed in a planar shape when not in use, it is easy to secure a storage location.

  Since the flag pole standing assisting tool according to the present invention is formed of the triangular prism as described above, the pedestal for supporting the flag pole can be concealed and the flag pole can be erected stably.
