Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <<Industrial Application Field>> The present invention relates to a photo frame that is used by being placed on a desk or the like.

《Prior Art and Problems》 Conventional photo frames have foldable support legs on a back plate that can be detachably attached to a photo holding frame. All I had to do was make him stand up.

In other words, conventional photo frames could only be used on a substantially horizontal board.

[Purpose and structure of the present invention] The present invention provides a photo frame that has a simple structure, can be mounted not only on a horizontal board but also on a substantially vertical board, and is not limited in its use. Its structure consists of a holding frame, a back plate detachably attached to the holding frame, and support legs connected to the back plate, one end of which is always biased in a direction away from the back plate. , the approximately middle portion is pivotally connected to the back surface of the back plate so that the other end abuts the back surface of the back plate.

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

In FIG. 1, numeral 1 indicates a holding frame, numeral 2 indicates a back plate, and numeral 3 indicates a support leg.

The holding frame 1 is integrally constructed from a synthetic resin material, and has a display window 10 for displaying photographs, etc. formed approximately in the center, and a support edge 11 for displaying photographs, etc., formed around the display window 10. A plate support protrusion 12 is formed to protrude rearward, and back plate mounting protrusions 13 are formed at several predetermined positions on the rear end of the back plate support protrusion 12 to protrude inward.

Reference numeral 14 indicates the periphery of the holding frame 1, and reference numerals 15, . . . indicate reinforcing ribs.

The back plate 2 is integrally formed of a synthetic resin material with a size that fits within the back plate support protrusion 12 and a thickness that approximately matches the thickness between the support edge 11 and the back plate attachment protrusion 13.

Then, the back plate mounting protrusion 1 is attached to a predetermined location on the peripheral edge.
Attachment notches 21 are formed corresponding to the mounting notches 21, and press-contact protrusions 22, which slightly bulge outward, are formed on the back surfaces of the attachment notches 21 in the circumferential direction.

Further, stopper protrusions 23, 23, one end of which coincides with the end of the mounting notch 21 and the other end of which is located near the pressure contact protrusion 22, are formed to protrude rearward on the back side. .

That is, insert a photograph or the like into the back plate supporting protrusions 12 so that the mounting notches 21 align with the back plate mounting protrusions 13, and attach the back plate 2 to the back plate supporting protrusions 12.
When it is inserted and rotated in a predetermined direction, the pressure contact protrusions 22 come into pressure contact with the back surface of the back plate mounting protrusion 13, and at the same time, the ends of the stopper protrusions 23, 23 are brought into contact with the ends of the back plate attachment protrusion 13. The rotation of the back plate 2 is stopped upon contact with the support edge 11 and the circumferential portion of the back plate 2, and the photograph or the like is securely held between the support edge 11 and the circumference of the back plate 2.

On the other hand, leg mounting projecting walls 24, 24 having leg mounting holes 241, 241 are provided at a predetermined interval on the back surface of the central portion of the back plate 2, and protrude toward the rear. The holding part 25
A back plate side clamping portion 26 having a diameter of 1.5 mm is formed.

The support leg 3 is made of a synthetic resin material, is located between the leg mounting projecting walls 24, 24 on the front surface of the approximately central part, and has the leg mounting hole 2.
Connecting protruding walls 31, 31 having connecting holes 311, 311 corresponding to the connecting holes 311, 241 are integrally formed to protrude forward.

A leg side clamping part 32 having a clamping protrusion 321 is formed at the upper end of the front side of the support leg 3 in correspondence with the back plate side clamping part 26 .

Reference numeral 33 indicates a locking hole used when hooking the support leg 3 to a hook provided on a wall surface or the like.

Then, with the coiled spring 4 always biased in the open direction being positioned between the connecting protruding walls 31, 31, the connecting protruding walls 31, 31 are connected to the leg mounting protruding walls 24, 2 of the back plate 2.
4, and connect the connecting pin 5 to the leg mounting hole 24.
1,241, the connecting holes 311, 311, and the coiled spring 4, and the connecting pin 5 is inserted with the retaining member 51.
The legs 3 are prevented from coming off, and the legs 3 are rotatably connected to the back plate 2.

In this state, the leg side clamping part 3 is attached to the back plate side clamping part 26.
2 are brought into contact with each other, and the supporting legs 3 are maintained in an open state by the coiled springs 4.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the holding frame 1 is used with the holding frame 1 tilted slightly backward, the support legs 3 open, and the lower end in contact with a horizontal plate.

On the other hand, when used on a vertical board, the lower end of the support leg 3 is pushed toward the back plate 2 against the elasticity of the coiled spring 4, and the back plate-side clamping part 26 and the leg-side clamping part 32 are separated, and the end of the vertical plate is sandwiched between them.
(Situation shown in Fig. 3) At this time, when the photograph etc. displayed on the display window 10 is reversed, in the embodiment, since the display window 10 is formed in a circular shape, only the photograph is displayed in the normal state. If the display window 10 is formed in a shape other than circular, first remove the back plate 2 along with the support legs 3 by performing the opposite operation as described above, and turn the back plate 2 upside down again. It is preferable to attach it to the holding frame 1 in this state.

In the embodiment, the holding frame 1 and the back plate 2 have back plate mounting protrusions 13..., mounting notches 21..., and pressure contact protrusions 2.
It is configured so that it can be attached to 2...etc.
The present invention is not limited to this configuration, and the holding frame 1 and the back plate 2 may be configured to be detachable.

For example, a predetermined number of places on the rear end edge of the back plate support protrusion 12 may be slightly bulged inward, and when the back plate 2 is fitted into the back plate support protrusion 12, the back plate 2 will be pulled out. Alternatively, the back plate 2 and the holding frame 1 may be secured with screws.

<<Effects>> As described above, the present invention pivots the approximately middle part of the support leg to the back surface of the back plate so that the support leg is always biased in the direction away from the back plate, and the other end is brought into contact with the back surface of the back plate. Because of this, it can be used on either horizontal or vertical boards, and when mounted on a vertical board, the ends of the vertical board, etc. can be narrowed between the legs and the back board. Since it is only necessary to hold it, it is very easy to carry out, and since this structure is simple, consisting of only a holding frame, a back plate, and legs, it can be manufactured at a low cost.
