Abstract

PURPOSE: To enable a collapsible board to have good portability and to be solid during use by collapsibly coupling square board members with a hinge part, expanding It during use, and making both the board members into one by permitting a fastening metal piece to slide to the hinge part. CONSTITUTION: Square plates 1, 1 are connected to be collapsibly superimposed each other via a hinge part 2. The plate members 1, 1 are formed of a rigid plastic material or the like. A substantially brought-down U-shaped fastening metal piece 3 consisting of an elastic rigid material such as a thin rigid plastic is slidably mounted on one side periphery being perpendicular to the hinge parts of the plate members. Further, on the inner surfaces of the plate members, pockets 4 are made in a manner capable of housing cards, papers and the like. Grips 5, 5 are provided on both end parts of the plate members 1, 1. During the period of carrying it, the fastening metal piece 3 is positioned out of the hinge part 2 for grasping the grips 5, 5 in a collapsed state. During use, the plate members are opened, and the fastening metal piece 3 is moved from the hinge part 2 to fasten the plate members into a state of one board.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a folding board which is used for filling out a form for drawing or a street questionnaire, or for filling in a voting guard while standing in a racetrack or a betting ticket area.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is a neck hanging type board for drawing. This board is simply formed of a rectangular plate-like member, and is often of A3 size in general.

[0003]

The above conventional board is
Since it is large in size, it is inconvenient to carry, and since it only has a function as a pedestal on which a sheet is placed, its use is limited and it is not practical.

Therefore, the present invention can be used as a solid one-piece plate at the time of use, but can be folded in two by a simple operation and is convenient for carrying, and moreover, it can be used for carrying cards and papers. It has a pocket that can be stored, and mainly provides a folding board that can be used for various purposes, such as storing voting guards and memos at the racetrack and storing paper at the time of a street survey. It is intended.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention takes the following technical means. That is, the folding board according to the present invention includes the rectangular plate members 1 and 1 having appropriate hardness and size, which are foldably connected to each other through the hinge portion 2 so as to be overlapped with each other. A stopper member 3 made of an elastic hard material and having a substantially U-shaped cross section is slidably mounted on one side edge of the plate member. Further, at least one surface of the plate member can accommodate a card, a sheet or the like. It has a structure in which a pocket 4 that can be formed is formed.

[0006]

When the board constructed as described above is unfolded and used, the stopper 3 is slid to the hinge 2 portion as shown in FIG.
1 is fixed in a plate shape. In addition, the stopper 3 is attached to the hinge 2
When it is moved to the position away from the left and right, the left and right plate members 1 and 1 can be freely folded in half from the hinge portion 2 as shown in FIG.

[0007]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The construction of the folding board of the present invention will be described below based on the embodiments shown in the drawings. In the figure, reference numeral 1 is
The rectangular plate members are foldably connected to each other via the hinge portion 2 so as to overlap each other, and are made of a relatively hard material such as plastic, synthetic paper, and wood. In the embodiment, each of the plate members 1 is set to A4 size, so that when it is developed into a single plate, it is set to A3 size, but it goes without saying that this size can be changed arbitrarily.

Further, a stopper 3 having a substantially U-shaped cross section made of elastic hard material such as thin hard plastic or steel plate is slidably mounted on one side edge of the plate member, that is, one side edge orthogonal to the hinge 2. It is installed. Further, a pocket 4 capable of accommodating cards, sheets, etc. is formed on the inner surface of the plate member. It is preferable that the inside of the pocket 4 be made transparent with a transparent synthetic resin sheet.

Further, in this embodiment, the grips 5 and 5 are provided at both ends of the plate members 1 and 1, respectively. Instead of the handle 5, a neck strap 6 may be provided as shown in FIG. 6, or both of them may be provided.

When the board constructed as described above is unfolded and used, as shown in FIG.
The left and right plate members 1 and 1 are fixed in a single plate shape by sliding them to a portion. As a result, it can be stably used as a paper stand for drawing and filling in various forms. At the same time, it is convenient to insert and remove cards and memos from the pocket 4 when filling out the voting guard at the racetrack. Further, when the stopper 3 is moved to a position away from the hinge portion 2, the left and right plate members 1, 1 can be freely folded in two from the hinge portion 2 as shown in FIG. 2, which is convenient for carrying. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5, a fastener 7 fitted to the inner surfaces of the plate members 1 and 1 which face each other.
You may make it provide a, 7a, 7b, 7b.

Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not necessarily limited to the structures of these embodiments. For example, the setting location and size of the pocket and the number thereof, the color and material of the plate member, the structure of the hinge portion, etc. are not specified. In addition, the present invention can be implemented with appropriate modifications within the scope of achieving the effects of the present invention and having the constitutional requirements thereof.

[0012]

Since the folding board of the present invention is constructed as described above, it can be used as a solid one-piece plate in a wide space simply by moving the stopper to a predetermined position, and it can be used as a sketch or a card. Not only is it convenient to fill in, but it can be folded in two by shifting the stopper, making it convenient to carry around. In addition, it has a pocket for storing cards and paper. When deploying and using the board, etc., voting guards and memos can be easily organized, erroneous entry can be prevented, and it can also be used as a simple mobile bag. effective.
