Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Technical field of the invention] This invention relates to the improvement of a terrestrial globe or a celestial globe.
For more details, without using an expensive support stand,
To provide a terrestrial globe or a celestial globe that supports a sphere and can be easily assembled.

[Prior art]

A conventional globe or the like is a sphere whose north and south poles are rotatably supported by a support base.

A conventional support stand is composed of an arc-shaped arm, a support supporting the arm, and a disk-shaped seat supporting the support.

By the way, the arm is made of aluminum, iron, or plastic and is formed into an arc shape.
The support is made of wood, metal, or plastic and is formed into a cylindrical or cylindrical shape. The seat is a disk-shaped piece of wood, metal, or plastic.

[Problems that the idea should solve]

However, the conventional support stand has the disadvantage that it is expensive because there are many parts to be machined.

That is, the wooden support and seat are cut and formed,
The arms also need to be attached and painted. Metal (iron plate) supports and seats require expensive press molds, cutting of the fitting parts, attachment of arms, and painting.

Because of the above circumstances, even if the sphere was made of paper and was manufactured at an inexpensive price, the support base that supported the sphere would be expensive, so the globe or celestial globe as a whole had to become expensive. .

In addition, the support stand is created exclusively for the support stand, and it is almost impossible to display advertisements or the like on it.

[Purpose of invention]

The present invention solves the problems of the conventional terrestrial globe or celestial globe, and its purpose is to provide an inexpensive one by not using an expensive support stand.

Furthermore, the object is to provide something that is easy to use and has a different image from conventional terrestrial globes and celestial globes.

[Summary of the idea]

a base plate portion formed by folding the central portion of the plate body in half; an arm portion extending from at least one side of the base plate portion;
The terrestrial globe has a support part provided opposite to the bent portion of the base plate and the arm part, and the two poles of a sphere are supported by the support part.

In the present invention, a plate is folded in half to make it self-supporting, and each of the plates is provided with support parts for supporting the north and south poles of the sphere.

The plate is made of a material that can be pressed and bent without breaking, such as a plastic plate, metal plate, or paper plywood.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2 show a first embodiment of the present invention, in which a stand 1 has base parts 2, 2a, and an arm part extending in an arc upward from these base parts 2, 2a. 3, 3a, a support part 4 formed at the junction of both arm parts 3, 3a, and a support part 4a formed at the junction of the substrate parts 2, 2a.
A fold line 5 is formed on the joint surfaces of the arm parts 3 and 3a, and the base 1 can be bent into a V shape from this fold line 5.

The stand 1 is manufactured by press working using a material that can be folded into two, such as a thick plastic sheet, a metal plate such as aluminum or thin iron plate, or paper plywood.

The stand 1 manufactured as described above is bent into a V-shape from the fold line 5 as shown in Fig. 2 and can stand on its own. Support portions 4, 4a protrude from the upper and lower portions. Assembly is completed by fitting both the supporting parts 4, 4a into the recesses formed at both poles of the spherical body G.

3 and 4 show the second embodiment, in which the stand 1a is made of a bendable plate material like the first embodiment, but there are differences from the first embodiment. Although the arm portion 3 is extended from the substrate portion 2 side, the arm portion is not extended from the other substrate portion 2a side.

Two fold lines 5a and 5b are formed parallel to each other at the boundary between the two substrate parts 2 and 2a, and this folded part has a thickness in the folded state.

The table 1a configured as described above has a fold line 5.
It is folded from a and 5b as shown in FIG. 4, and is in a state where it can stand on its own. Therefore, the receiving ring 7 shown in FIG. 5 is fitted into the lower support part 4a, and then the upper support part 4 is inserted into the upper hole of the sphere G, and the support part 4a is inserted into the lower hole. Next, the split ring 8 shown in FIG. 5 is attached to the upper support portion 4, thereby completing the assembly of the globe, etc.

6, 7, and 8 show a third embodiment of the present invention, in which the base 1b is a base plate 1c and a holding plate for holding the base plate 1c in a predetermined bent state. 9 and a split ring 8.

The base plate 1c is formed in the same shape as the base 1 in FIG.
is extended, and both arm portions 3, 3a are connected in an annular manner. A notch 10 is provided in the substrate portions 2, 2a. On the other hand, a notch 11 is provided in the holding plate 9, and the seventh
As shown in the figure, the notch 11 of the holding plate 9 is fitted together with the notch 10 to prevent the base plate 1c from spreading.

When the assembly of the base 1b is completed as described above, the lower recess of the sphere G is fitted into the support part 4a, and the split ring 8 is attached to the support part 4 with the support part 4 fitted into the upper recess. After fitting, the assembly of the globe etc. is completed in the state shown in FIG.

9 and 10 show a fourth embodiment of the present invention, which shows a tongue piece 14 having a protrusion 13 from the base plate parts 2, 2a of a base plate 1d, and a recess for receiving the protrusion 13. The tongues 16 with 15 are each extended.

The tongue pieces 14 and 16 connect the base plate parts 2 and 2a of the base plate 1d, which are bent in a V shape from the fold line 5, at the rear and maintain the shape thereof.

The assembly of the base plate 1b is completed by bending the base plate 1b backward into a V shape along the fold line 5 and connecting the tongue pieces 14 and 16 at the back. The assembly of the globe, etc. is completed by fitting the concave portions provided at both poles of the sphere G into the spherical body G.

[Effect of idea]

The globe according to the present invention has a substrate portion folded in two at the center, an arm portion extending from at least one of the substrate portions, and a support portion provided opposite to the substrate portion and the arm portions. , the two poles of the sphere are supported by the support portion, and the following effects can be achieved.

(1) By not using an expensive support stand unlike conventional globes, labor costs can be reduced and an inexpensive globe can be provided.

(2) Since it uses a support stand that is completely different from those used for conventional terrestrial globes and celestial globes, it is possible to provide something that is easy to use and has a different image from that of conventional terrestrial globes.

(3) The number of parts in the support stand is small, making the product inexpensive.

(4) Consumers can enjoy the fun of assembling a support instead of simply having the support stand support the sphere as in the past.
