Abstract

PURPOSE: To store a panorama-size photograph in addition to a normal-size photograph and prevent a stored photograph from easily slipping off a storage part by a method wherein a mount body has a longer width longer than the longer width of a panorama-size photograph and a shorter width longer than the longer width of a normal-size photograph. CONSTITUTION: In the production of an album 1, a cover material 2 and a plurality of mount materials 3 are overlapped so that a boundary between a top cover 4 and a back cover 5 is coincident with a boundary between two mounts 6, 6 and bound at the overlapped boundary part by needle-form staples of stapler. Therefore, each of the mounts 6 is provided with a binding part 61 on one end of the shorter edge thereof. The mount 6 is composed of a mount body and a transparent film. The mount body has a longer width L1 longer than the longer width L2 of a panorama-size photograph 7 and a shorter width L3 longer than the longer width L4 of a normal-size photograph 8.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to albums.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, there are commercially available cameras capable of freely switching between normal size photography and panoramic size photography on a single film. In the following, a "normal photo" will be stored, but a panorama size photo (hereafter,
"Panoramic photograph") could not be stored.

Therefore, in recent years, an album has been put on the market that can store both ordinary photographs and panoramic photographs.

That is, in this album, a plurality of ordinary photo storage portions are formed in a plurality of stages in the longitudinal direction of the mount, and the ordinary size photographs are provided in this storage portion on the open end side (the side not bound) of the mount. In addition to enabling storage from the storage opening, the partition located between the long end of the main body of the mount and the longitudinal width of the panorama photo among the partitions that partition the storage part of the ordinary photo A panoramic photo can be stored by inserting a gap that is almost the same as or slightly larger than the above, and inserting the panoramic photo from the lacking part at the end of the long and long sides of the mount between the main body of the mount and the transparent film. I am trying.

[0005]

By the way, in such an album, as described above, since the storage portions are arranged in a plurality of rows in the vertical direction and are elongated in the vertical direction,
In most cases, it is often impossible to carry it in a bag or the like without lying down sideways. However, since the storage opening for ordinary photos is provided on the open end side of the mount, if you store it in a bag etc. with the binding side facing up, the storage port will be on the bottom side, and the photo will come from the storage bag. It has the drawback of spilling inside.

In view of such circumstances, the present invention provides an album which can store not only ordinary photographs but also panoramic photographs, and in which the photographs stored in the storage portion do not easily drop from the storage portion. The purpose is to do.

[0007]

In order to achieve such an object, an album according to the present invention comprises a mount main body and a transparent film provided on the surface side of the mount main body,
A mount formed by a partition formed by fixing a part of the main body of the mount and a transparent film at the part, and a plurality of storage portions for storing photographs of a predetermined size formed between the main body of the mount and the transparent film. However, in an album in which a plurality of sheets are spliced together, at least the longitudinal width of the mount body is larger than the longitudinal width of the panoramic photograph, and the lateral width of the mount body is greater than the longitudinal width of the ordinary photograph. A plurality of ordinary photo storage sections with storage ports on the spelling section side are formed in multiple stages in the longitudinal direction of the mount body, and a panorama is formed from one end of the mount body of the partition body that divides the ordinary photo storage section. For the partition located between the longitudinal width of the photo,
The short width of the panoramic photograph is about the same as or slightly larger than the width, and the lacking portion is formed at a position apart from the storage port.

In the above structure, the material of the mount is
Although not particularly limited, examples thereof include paper, resin-coated paper, resin sheet, and the like. The material of the transparent film is not particularly limited, for example, polyvinyl chloride,
Examples include cellophane and polycarbonate. The partition is not particularly limited, and can be formed by, for example, a method of fixing the mount and the transparent film with an adhesive, a method of fixing the mount and the transparent film by heat fusion, and the like.

[0009]

According to the above construction, when the album is closed,
Since the ordinary photo stored in the storage section has the storage opening on the binding section side even if the open end side of the mount body is on the lower side,
Does not fall out of the storage compartment. Of course, even when the open end side of the mount body is on the upper side, the end portion of the photograph is not received by the wall surface of the binding portion and does not fall off from the storage portion.

Further, the panoramic photograph can be stored between the main body of the mount and the transparent film through the lacking part of the partition provided at one longitudinal end of the mount and passing through the lacking part of each storage part.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings showing the embodiments thereof. 1 and 2 show one embodiment of an album according to the present invention. As shown in the figure, this album 1 includes a cover material 2 in which a front cover 4 and a back cover 5 are integrally provided, and two mounts 6 and 6.
Is composed of a plurality of mount materials 3 that are integrally connected in the width direction.

That is, in this album 1, a cover material 2 and a plurality of mount materials 3 are overlapped so that the boundary between the front cover 4 and the back cover 5 and the boundary between the two mounts 6 and 6 are aligned. It is formed by binding with staple-like metal fittings (not shown in the figure) of the stapler at the overlapping boundary portions. Therefore, the binding portion 61 is formed at one end on the short side of each mount 6.

The mount 6 is composed of a mount body 62 and a transparent film 63. The length L1 of the mount body 62 is larger than the length L2 of the panoramic photograph 7 and the width L3 of the mount body 62. Is larger than the longitudinal width L4 of the ordinary photograph 8.

The transparent film 63 is disposed on the front and back surfaces of the mount main body 62, and has a long edge 62a on the side opposite to the binding portion 61 of the mount main body 62 and one end edge 62b on the short side, the periphery of which is the mount main body 62. In addition to being glued to the mount main body 62, the other side edge on the short side is also glued at equal intervals at a pitch slightly longer than the short width L5 of the ordinary photograph 8.
The storage portions 81, 81, 81 are formed in three steps in the longitudinal direction at a pitch slightly larger than the short width L5 of the ordinary photograph 8.

That is, the gluing section serves as the partitions 64, 65, 66 of the storage sections 81. And the storage part 8
The storage port 82 of No. 1 is provided on the side of the binding portion 61 of the mount main body 62. In addition, one end edge 62 on the short side of the mount body 62
In b, the hole 62c for venting air is provided with a portion which is not glued to the transparent film 63 in the middle portion.

Further, the partitions 64, 65, 66 are provided parallel to the short side of the mount body 62 from the binding portion 61 to the other end, and from the other end, a width slightly larger than the short width L6 of the panoramic photograph 7. The missing portions 67, 68, 69 are provided in. Therefore, in this album 1, the ordinary picture 8 can be stored in the storage section 81 from the storage opening 82, and the panoramic picture 7 can be passed through the three storage sections 81 via the notches 67, 68, 69. It can be housed between the mount body 62 and the transparent film 63.

In addition, since the storage opening 82 for the ordinary photograph 8 is provided on the binding portion 61 side, when the album 1 is closed, the storage portion 81 can be placed with the longitudinal side end of the mount 6 up or down. Therefore, the ordinary photograph 8 does not pop out from the storage 81. Further, since the partitions 64, 65, 66 are provided only on the storage port 82 side, when storing the panoramic picture 7, if the panoramic picture 7 is inserted along the open end side of the mount main body 62, the partition 64 , 65, 66 can be stored smoothly without being caught.

The album according to the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, in the above embodiment, the two mounts 6 and 6 constitute one mount material 3, but the mount 6
Are separated one by one, and these mounts 6 are bound at one side end thereof with a thread or the like, or a hole through which a binding metal fitting is inserted is provided at one end of the mount paper 6 and the binding metal fittings are connected to form the mount paper. 6 may be increased.

Further, in the above embodiment, the storage portions 81 of the ordinary photograph 8 are provided in three stages, but it is also possible to have four or more stages.

[0020]

As described above, in the album according to the present invention, at least the longitudinal width of the mount body is larger than the longitudinal width of the panoramic photograph, and the lateral width of the mount body is larger than the longitudinal width of the ordinary photograph. A plurality of ordinary photo storage units each having a storage opening on the side of the splicing unit of the mount body are formed in a plurality of stages in the longitudinal direction of the mount body. Since the partition located in the longitudinal width of the panoramic photo from one side end is configured to have a widthwise lacking portion that is substantially the same as or slightly larger than the lateral width of the panoramic size, is formed at a position away from the storage opening. Not only can you store ordinary photos or panoramic photos, you can also say that the photo is popping out of the album in either direction.
