An example of this is that the back plate (mainly made of paperboard) that holds down the back of the displayed photo and holds it in the frame has support legs that are cut out and bent to form a single piece. In some cases, when the stand is erected, its supporting legs can be folded back and assembled.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 As described above, since the conventional photo frame generally has a structure that enhances its decorativeness, it is unavoidable that the photo frame becomes expensive. Moreover, since the conventional photo frame is designed to contain and decorate only one specific photo selected by the user, decorativeness is often emphasized. In addition, the frame is not only made of wood but also of metal, which makes it bulky. Therefore, when it is produced and sold as a simple photo stand, there is a problem that the handling cost is high and the product cost is high. This tendency is particularly noticeable in the case of a photo frame containing a panoramic photo.

It is an object of the present invention to solve the above problems and provide a photo stand having a simple structure that is easy to handle, is not bulky, and can display a desired photo without concern.

A back plate to be formed and a support plate that is connected to the display unit to cover the opening of the storage unit of the displayed picture and is assembled at the rear of the back plate to serve as a support leg are formed of a series of synthetic resin sheets. The tip end of the connecting piece, which is bent back from a part of the back plate and protrudes from the part of the back plate, is inserted into the insertion hole provided in the lower part of the supporting plate. It is characterized in that the whole is erected by engaging both with the insertion hole or a locking portion provided near the insertion hole.

Further, according to the present invention, an engaging portion is provided at an intermediate portion of the supporting plate, and the connecting piece for assembling the supporting leg provided on the back plate is passed through the inserting hole for assembling the supporting plate. If the leading end locking portion is engaged with the locking portion in the middle portion of the support plate, it is preferable that the support plate can be stacked and bound on the back plate. Further, when the widthwise dimension of the accommodating portion of the display photograph of the present invention is widened, by providing a reinforcing piece for bending the middle portion of the lower end portion of the support plate inward with an appropriate width. It is preferable because the stability of the supporting leg can be maintained.

[0008]

[Action]
