[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a display device used as a frame, a panel, a display, etc., for mounting and displaying an exhibit such as a photograph, a poster, a painting, a certificate of merit from the front.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there are various kinds of display devices used for displaying objects such as picture frames, panels and displays. Among them, there are a frame in which a fixing member is framed in a polygon (mainly a quadrangle), and It consists of a movable member that is rotatably connected to at least one side of a fixed member, and a plate member provided in a polygonal frame.The movable member is opened forward, an exhibit is placed on the surface of the plate member, and the movable member is 2. Description of the Related Art Exhibitors are often used that are rotated inward of a frame to hold the exhibit between a movable member and a plate member or a fixed member for display.

When sandwiching an exhibit with this exhibit apparatus, a transparent plate may be provided in front of the exhibit and the movable member may sandwich the exhibit through the transparent plate. In addition, the plate material is made transparent or semi-transparent, and an illumination device (backlight) such as a fluorescent lamp is provided behind the plate material to illuminate the display object from behind the plate material so that the display object appears to float up. There is also an illuminated display device.

In these display devices, the movable member is rotated so that the exhibit is sandwiched between the movable member and the plate member or the fixed member. However, the structure in which the movable member is thus rotated to sandwich the exhibit. There are various types. For example, a movable member is attached to a fixed member by a hinge, and a spring is provided on a rotating shaft of the hinge so that the movable member always rotates inward of the frame. You may make it pinch an exhibit. But,
In this method, since the hinge is visible and the appearance is not good, it is unsuitable as an exhibition device that attaches importance to aesthetics, and has a weak clamping force. It should be noted that if the clamping force is increased, it becomes difficult for the movable member to open, and it becomes difficult to move the exhibit in and out while holding the movable member in the open state.

Therefore, recently, a rotary shaft is provided on either one of the fixed member and the movable member, and the other is connected so as to rotate about this rotary shaft, and the rotary shaft is provided in front of the rotary shaft inside the frame. In addition, a display device has been adopted in which a leaf spring is compressed and deformed to be inserted between the rotary member locking portion and the movable member locking portion provided on the back side of the movable member. In this display method, when the movable member is moved inward of the frame, the movable member strongly presses the exhibit in the direction of the plate material and clamps it, and also rotates the movable member forward around the rotation axis. When opened, the movable member automatically rotates and opens in the forward direction when the movable member locking part exceeds the extension line of the rotary shaft and the fixed member locking part, making it easy to put in and out the exhibit. Become. or,
Since the leaf spring is provided on the back side of the movable member in this display device, the internal structure is not seen from the outside and the appearance is not impaired.

[0006]

However, when the movable member is frequently moved and used in this exhibition apparatus, there is a problem that the movable member is displaced in the axial direction of the rotating shaft. The reason is that the movable member and the fixed member are connected so as to be rotatable about the rotation axis, and the leaf spring is compressed and deformed between the movable member locking portion and the fixed member locking portion. This is because there is no mechanism for preventing the movable member from being displaced in the axial direction of the rotary shaft, since it is simply mounted over the other.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a leaf spring on the back side of the movable member so that the exhibit can be strongly clamped and easily put in and out, and the movable member is prevented from moving in the rotation axis direction. Is intended to be provided.

[0008]

The present invention has been made to achieve the above object, and the invention of claim 1 is as follows.

First, the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 will be described. 1 to 5, reference numeral 1 denotes a display device. In the display device 1, a fixed member 2 is a quadrangular frame, a movable member 3 rotatably connected to the fixed member 2, and a frame. It has the plate material 4 provided.

The fixing member 2 is a long body in which two protruding pieces 21 and 22 are projected forward, and is composed of a long fixing member 28 and a short fixing member 29. Then, the two long fixing members 28 and the two short fixing members 29 are made to face each other, the fixed corner members 5 are attached to the corners, and as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the L-shaped fixing jig 6 is attached to the two protruding pieces 21 and 22.
It is inserted into the fixed corner member 5 and fixed by the screws 61 and 62. This fixing method will be described in more detail. When the screw 61 is screwed into the screw hole provided in the fixing jig 6, the screw 61 abuts on the bottom wall of the fixing member 2 between the projecting pieces 21 and 22. When screwed in,
The fixing jig 6 is pulled upwards in the direction opposite to the screw-in direction, and the fixing jig 6 abuts on the fastening pieces 23 and 24 projecting inward from the projecting pieces 21 and 22 and moves further in the forward direction. Disappear. As a result, the fixing member 2 is fixed by the fixing jig 6. The fixed corner member 5 is also fixed by screwing the screw 62 into the fixing jig 6 from the back side of the fixed corner member 5.

The material of the fixing member 2 is generally a metal such as aluminum or stainless steel, a synthetic resin such as polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, ABS or a composite material thereof, but is not particularly limited. is not.

When the fixing member 2 is framed in this manner, the inner protruding piece 21 projects in the front direction to form a frame. Therefore, the plate member 4 and the exhibit 41 described later can be fitted therein. Further, a fixing member locking portion 25 and an arm piece 26 protruding rearward outward from the fixing member locking portion 25 are provided at the tip of the outer protruding piece 22, and a rotary shaft 27 is provided at this tip. . In other words, the fixed member locking portion 25 is provided at the front position inside the rotating shaft 27. Further, the fixed corner member 5 is provided with a pushing piece 55, and as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the long fixing member 28 is provided by the pushing piece 55.
Both ends of the rotary shaft 27 are closed.

The movable member 3 comprises two opposing short movable members 31 and two opposing long movable members 32,
These form a quadrangle. In addition, the short movable member 31
The ends of the movable corner member 7 are inserted at the both ends of the
It is fixed.

The long movable member 32 and the short movable member 31
Is a long body having a C-shaped cross section, and a movable member locking portion 35 is formed on the inner surface of the inner edge of the C-shaped cross section, and a stopper formed on the inner surface of the outer edge to surround the rotary shaft 27. A dressing portion 37 is provided. That is, the fastening member 37 is locked to the rotary shaft 27 so that the movable member 3 can be rotated about the rotary shaft 27. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the movable corner member 7 is provided with a pressing piece 75, and the pressing piece 75 is used to rotate the rotary shaft 2 of the short fixing member 29.
Both ends of 7 are blocked.

As with the fixed member 3, the movable member 3 is generally made of a metal such as aluminum or stainless steel, a synthetic resin such as polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene or ABS, or a composite material thereof. However, it is not particularly limited.

The plate member 4 is detachably mounted in the frame formed by the projecting piece 21 inside the frame-shaped fixing member 2. Reference numeral 41 is an exhibit made of advertising paper. Reference numeral 42 is a transparent plate material made of a transparent synthetic resin such as acrylic, polycarbonate, or polyvinyl chloride, and an exhibit 41 is sandwiched between the transparent plate material 42 and the plate material 4. Reference numeral 8 is a leaf spring, and the leaf spring 8 is arranged between the fixed member locking portion 25 and the movable member locking portion 35 in a compressed and deformed state.

Next, the operation of the display device 1 will be described. The leaf spring 8 is passed between the fixed member locking portion 25 and the movable member locking portion 35 in a compressed and deformed state, and the fixed member locking portion 25 is provided at the inner front position of the rotating shaft 27. Therefore, when the movable member 3 is rotated around the rotary shaft 27 and opened, when the movable member locking portion 35 is positioned on the extension line of the rotary shaft 27 and the fixed member locking portion 25, the movable member locking portion 35 is opened. The distance between the fixing member locking portion 25 and the fixing member 35 becomes the shortest, and the deformation of the leaf spring 8 becomes the largest. Therefore, up to this point, a strong force is required to further compress the leaf spring 8, but beyond this position, a force acts to move the leaf spring 8 to another position with less compression deformation. As a result, the movable member 3 automatically opens. Therefore, the plate member 4 and the movable member 3
It is easy to insert and remove the exhibits between and.

On the contrary, when the movable member 3 is closed around the rotating shaft 27, the movable member locking portion 35 needs a strong force up to the extension line between the rotating shaft 27 and the fixed member locking portion 25. However, it will automatically close after this. Therefore, when the exhibit 41 is placed on the plate 4, the exhibit 41 is strongly pressed by the plate 4 for display. It should be noted that when the movable member 3 rotates in the direction of the plate member 4, the edge 38 of the fastening portion 37 hits the arm piece 26 and is prevented from rotating further. Further, when it is rotated in the opposite direction, the edge 39 on the opposite side of the fastening portion 37 abuts on the arm piece 26 and is prevented from further rotation. In other words, the edges 38 and 39 are stoppers.

In the conventional display apparatus, if the movable member 3 (the long movable member 32 and the short movable member 31) is frequently rotated, it moves in the rotation axis direction, but in this display apparatus 1, the rotation axis 27 direction. Not to move to. That is, since the rotary shaft 27 of the long fixed member 28 is sandwiched by the pressing pieces 55 provided on the fixed corner member 5 so as to close both ends of the rotary shaft 27, the long movable member 32 cannot move in the longitudinal direction. It is like this. Further, since the rotary shaft 27 of the short fixed member 29 is sandwiched by the pressing pieces 75 provided on the movable corner member 7 so as to block both ends of the rotary shaft 27, the short movable member 31 is prevented from moving in the longitudinal direction. Has become.

Contrary to the present embodiment, both ends of the rotary shaft 27 of the short fixed member 29 are blocked by the pushing pieces 55 of the fixed corner member 5 to prevent the short movable member 31 from moving in the longitudinal direction. The end portions of the movable corner member 7 are inserted into both ends of the long movable member 32 to form the long fixed member 28.
The rotating shaft 27 may be sandwiched by closing the pressing piece 75 of the movable corner member 7 so that the long movable member 32 does not move in the longitudinal direction.

Next, a method of using this display device will be described. The movable member 3 (the long movable member 32 and the short movable member 31) is rotated about the rotation shaft 27 and opened. Then, since the leaf spring 8 is further compressed and deformed, a force is required at first, but when the movable member locking portion 25 of the movable member 3 exceeds the extension line of the rotating shaft 27 and the fixed member locking portion 35, the automatic force is automatically generated. Open. Then, the edge 39 of the fastening portion 37 of the movable member 3 stops in a state of hitting the arm piece 26.

After the movable member 3 is opened in this manner, the exhibit 41 and the transparent plate member 42 are placed on the plate member 4. Thus, since the movable member 3 is open, the exhibit 41 and the transparent plate member 42 can be easily placed on the plate member 4.

Next, the movable member 3 is rotated about the rotating shaft 27 to close it. Then, since the leaf spring 8 is initially compressed and deformed, a force is required, but when the movable member locking portion 25 of the movable member 3 exceeds the extension line of the rotary shaft 27 and the fixed member locking portion 35, the force is automatically generated. Close. And still, leaf spring 8
Is in a compressed and deformed state, the movable member 3 strongly presses the plate member 4, the exhibit 41, and the transparent plate member 42. As a result, it is possible to attach the exhibit 41 so that the exhibit 41 does not move inside the exhibit apparatus 1 even if the exhibit apparatus 1 is moved.

Further, even if the movable member 3 is frequently rotated,
Since the push piece 55 of the fixed corner member 5 closes and sandwiches both ends of the rotary shaft 27, the long movable member 32 of the movable member 3 does not move in the axial direction, and the push piece 75 of the movable corner member 7 is provided. Since both ends of the rotary shaft 27 are closed and sandwiched, the short movable member 31 also does not move in the axial direction.

Next, the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 will be described. Comparing the display device 1 shown in FIG. 6 with the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, it is different in that the plate member 4 is translucent and that the illumination device 9 made of a fluorescent lamp is provided behind the plate member 4, Other structures are the same as those in FIGS. Since the exhibit 41 illuminates the exhibit 41 from the back with the illumination device 9, the exhibit 41 can be seen as if it is floating, so that it can be exhibited in a very beautiful and conspicuous state.

[0035]

As described above in detail, in the display apparatus of the present invention, the movable member presses the exhibit strongly against the plate material by the action of the leaf spring, so that the exhibit is easy to display and the movable member is opened. It is easy to get in and out of the exhibit because it stops in the state. Furthermore, even if the movable member is rotated frequently, the movable member does not shift in the axial direction because the pressing piece closes and sandwiches both ends of the rotating shaft.
