Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible for even an unexperienced man to replace wall paper easily without any special skill arranging a wall paper restricting tool on any marginal areas on the all such as a ceiling, a floor or the upper and lower parts of a window. CONSTITUTION:A wall paper replacement device 1 consists of a continuously long body 2 and a cover 3, and these members are fixed with a core wire, around which the cover 3 is hinged so that it moves axially. When wall paper is attached, the cover 3 of the device 1 fixed to a part which parts with a ceiling C on a wall W is opened upward, then the top marginal part is drawn out of a wall paper roll. Next, the marginal part becomes engaged with the serrated top marginal part 2b of an engagement section 2a of the body. If the wall paper is correctly engaged with the part 2b and fixed temporarily, the cover 3 is closed on the body 2 holding the wall paper 6, and the tip 3a of the cover 3 is fixed in such a manner that the wall paper 6 is elastically pressed and held between the cover and the engagement section 2a. A decorative surface which is the external surface of the cover 3 is exposed to form a parting area between the wall W and the ceiling. In this case, the bottom marginal part of each wall paper 6 is like-wise attached to the area which parts with the floor or the bottom marginal part of the window opening so that the wall paper becomes symmetrical in the upper and lower halves.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a wallpaper replacement tool, and particularly to a wallpaper replacement tool that can easily replace wallpaper used as a room interior.

[Conventional technology]

All conventional wallpapers used for room interiors are pasted onto the wall using adhesive.The pasting process requires unique skill and is not easy to apply due to peeling, cleaning, preparation, etc. They were designed to be irreplaceable and had a strong tendency to be semi-permanent.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, these wallpapers are extremely important elements for the interior of a room, and because they greatly affect the mood of the room, residents often request to change the appearance for their taste or for a change of mood. Despite this, many people have given up and become complacent with the status quo because they cannot easily replace it.

Requests such as those mentioned in F. may be made when you want to temporarily change the mood of a room, such as for a Christmas party, or when you are moving relatively frequently, especially when living in an apartment.
This was especially often experienced by children who wrote music.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional situation, and aims to provide a means by which even an amateur can easily replace wallpaper or the like without requiring any special skills.

[Means to solve the problem]

For this reason, in this invention, it serves as a separating edge from the ceiling or floor of a room wall, or a window, etc., and also serves as a separating edge from the ceiling, floor, or window, etc., and also to restrain the upper and lower edges of wallpaper, etc., so that they can be easily released. Continuous long restraint means (tools)
The purpose is to achieve the above object by providing the following.

[Effect]

With the above-described configuration, the tool for restraining wallpaper, etc. according to the present invention can be placed on the edge of the wall that is in contact with the ceiling, the floor, or the bottom of the window. It can be attached by binding the edges, or easily released and removed, and easily replaced with other wallpaper, etc.

(Example〕 The present invention will be explained below based on examples.

FIGS. 1(a) and 1(b) show a cross-sectional view of the main part of the wallpaper installation state using an embodiment of the wallpaper (etc.) replacement tool according to the present invention, and a view taken along the line B-B in the same figure, respectively. .

(Structure) In the figure, C represents the ceiling of the room, W represents the wall surface, and 1 represents the wallpaper replacement tool according to the present invention.

The replacement tool 1 consists of a long, continuous body 2 and a cover part 3, both of which are hinged by a core 4 around which the cover 3 can pivot. The main body 1 has an L-shaped wallpaper edge engaging part 2a at the tip thereof, and the edge thereof is formed in a sawtooth shape to ensure engagement with the wallpaper.

This main body 2 has holes 5 drilled at appropriate intervals, and is mounted over the entire length of the wall W at the parting point from the ceiling C using machine screws (not shown). Of course, it is also possible to bond the back surface.

Further, the cover forms a decorative surface on the outside, has an L-shaped tip portion 3a, and has a size/shape that allows it to engage with the main body engaging portion 2a with the wallpaper interposed therebetween.

The replacement tool 1 is manufactured as a continuous long piece made of synthetic resin or metal, and it is convenient to cut it into a required length as necessary.

(How to install wallpaper) Next, the method for installing wallpaper will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. 2(a) and 2(b) are process diagrams showing the installation order, respectively, and FIG. 3 is an overall front view of one wall of a room having a window opening [10].

First, in FIG. 2(a), the cover 3 of the replacement tool 1 fixed to the parting part from the ceiling C on the wall surface W is released upward, the upper edge is pulled out from the roll of wallpaper 6, and the main body It is engaged with the serrated upper edge 2b portion of the joint portion 2a. After the wallpaper 6 is properly engaged and temporarily fixed, as shown in the same figure (b),
When the cover 3 is closed on the main body 2 with the wallpaper 6 in between, the tip 3a of the cover 3, which is made to a predetermined size, elastically presses and holds the wallpaper 6 between it and the main body engaging part 2a. in,
is fixed, and the decorative surface, which is the outer surface of the cover 3, is exposed.
It forms a parting edge between the wall W and the ceiling.

Here, as shown in FIG. 3, the lower edge of each wallpaper 6 is attached to the part where it meets the floor F or the upper edge of the window opening 0, in a state that is vertically symmetrical to the state shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. Furthermore, the lower edge of the window opening O is similar to the parting part with the ceiling C described above.

In addition, 7 in FIG. 3 indicates a plurality of holes interposed between the back surface of the wallpaper 6 and the wall surface W at appropriate locations so that the pasted wallpaper 6 does not float up from the wall surface W due to negative air pressure. Double-sided adhesive tape is shown.

(Replacement) When trying to change the wallpaper 6 by replacing it with another wallpaper, first open the cover 3 of each replacement tool 1, then the old wallpaper 6 can be replaced with the double-sided adhesive tape 7. Since it can be easily removed by simply pulling and peeling off only the sections, if the new wallpaper is pasted in exactly the same manner as in the installation method, the remodeling can be completed very simply and easily.

(Other Embodiments) Although the above description has been made regarding the case where the wallpaper 6 is applied to the entire wall surface W of the room, it is of course possible to apply the wallpaper 6 to only a part of the wall surface W if necessary.

Furthermore, although the above embodiments have been described with reference to the case where the wallpaper 6 is used, the object to be installed is not limited to the wallpaper 6 alone, and may be attached to, for example, decorative cloth with a relatively large area of designs/patterns. It is of course possible to do so.

Furthermore, the wallpaper replacement tool has an example of a configuration in which the main body 2 and the cover 3 are pivotally connected by the core M4, but is not limited to this, and has a decorative surface that can be easily opened. As long as it has a configuration, there is no problem in using various configurations and designs.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, on the wall surface of the room, for example, at the edge of the ceiling, floor, etc., on top of wallpaper, etc.
By providing a series of replacement devices for easily releasably restraining each of the lower edges, it is now possible to simply and easily remove wallpaper, etc., and reinstall it for redecoration.
