2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, for example, a nameplate 4 has a nameplate plate 4b and a nameplate plate 4b.
and a holder 4A for detachably holding b. The nameplate plate 4b is a transparent square plate and is used by overlapping with a nameplate sheet 4g on which a name is written.

[0003] The holder part 4A is fixed to a front panel, a wall, or the like, and is inserted through the nameplate plate 4b.
A window portion 4j that exposes the contents of the name tag sheet 4g; and a housing portion 4a that houses the nameplate plate 4b inserted through the window portion 4j and holds the nameplate plate 4b slidably in the vertical direction. .

The window 4j has a rectangular shape similar to the display plate 4b, and has a left-right width substantially equal to the nameplate plate 4b, and a vertical width slightly smaller than the vertical width of the nameplate plate 4b. The housing portion 4a is a box-shaped space formed by a plate frame 4c having a substantially U-shaped cross section on the back side of the window portion 4j, and has a depth such that a nameplate plate 4b and a nameplate sheet 4g can be stacked. Having. Also,
The vertical width of the housing portion 4a is formed sufficiently larger than the vertical width of the nameplate plate 4b. That is, the vertical width of the window portion 4j is smaller than the vertical width of the housing portion 4a. Therefore, the upper end portion 4d and the lower end portion 4e of the housing portion 4a are concave downward in cross section and upward concave in cross section, respectively.

In FIG. 7, the side of the holder 4A is partially cut away to make the periphery of the housing 4a easier to understand. Actually, the left and right sides of the plate frame 4c are closed.
The nameplate plate 4b and the nameplate sheet 4g in a do not fall off the left and right sides of the plate frame 4c.

The nameplate plate 4b on which the nameplate sheet 4g is superimposed is inserted from the window 4j as shown in FIG. 9 and is housed and held in the housing 4a. That is,
In FIG. 9, first, the upper end 4s of the display plate 4b is inserted through the window 4j as shown in FIG. 9A, and is inserted into the upper end 4d of the housing 4a as shown in FIG. And
As shown in (c), after the nameplate plate 4b is completely housed in the housing portion 4a and the nameplate plate 4b is slid downward, as shown in (d), the lower end 4t of the nameplate plate 4b becomes the housing portion. It falls into the lower end 4e of 4a and is fitted.
At the same time, the upper end 4s of the nameplate plate 4b is also engaged with a part of the upper end 4d of the housing 4a. In this way, the nameplate plate 4b can be held at the steady holding position of the holder 4A.

(B) As shown in (a), the nameplate plate 4b can be taken out of the housing portion 4a, and the nameplate plate 4b can be taken out of the holder portion 4A.

[0008]

However, according to the prior art nameplate, the nameplate plate 4b is attached to the holder portion 4.
Since the gap C formed by sliding the nameplate plate 4b upward when removing it from the position A is narrow, it is difficult for the finger to be hooked on the lower end 4t of the nameplate plate 4b. It was difficult to remove from the part 4A. Further, even if the size of the gap C can be increased, in the state (c), since the nameplate plate 4b is in contact with the inside of the plate frame 4c forming the accommodating portion 4a, the lower end of the nameplate plate 4b is formed. 4t
Therefore, it is difficult to remove the nameplate plate 4b from the holder portion 4A.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a nameplate in which a nameplate can be easily removed from a holder.
