Then, a small-diameter support 4 is inserted into the lumen of the holding member 3, and a display member 5 is fixed to the upper end of the small-diameter support 4.

The display member 5 is formed, for example, by forming a groove 6a open upward along a dotted line 6a in FIG. 1 in a rectangular plastic frame 6, so that the pop paper 7 can be taken out from the upper open portion so as to be freely removed. I am trying to do it.

The display member 5 is not limited to the one shown in the drawings, but may be of various types, such as a type in which a clip is provided on a horizontal bar member connected to the upper end of the small-diameter support 4 or a type in which a card is clamped. Forms can be used.

Then, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 (a) or (b), the upper part of the holding member 3 made of an elastic member is vertically divided into two parts from the upper end in a two-piece circle having a gap 8 therebetween. The elastic pieces 9 are formed in the shape of arcs, and these elastic pieces 9
By fitting a C-shaped ring spring 10 around the outer periphery of the elastic member 9, the elastic pieces 9 are pressed inward to each other so that the small-diameter strut 4 inserted into the lumen of the holding member 3 is elastically pressed by the ring spring 10. I have to.

The above-mentioned holding member 3 will be described in more detail. As shown in FIG. 4, a lower cavity 3a of a cylindrical holding member 3 made of, for example, elastic plastic or the like has an inner diameter in which the column 2 can be inserted. At the same time, the upper lumen 3b is formed to have an inner diameter into which the small-diameter support 4 can be inserted, and the upper part of the holding member 3 is vertically divided into two parts from the upper end in the form of a two-piece circular arc having a gap 8 therebetween. The elastic pieces 9 are formed, and the lower ends of the gaps 8 on both sides are formed as the gaps 11 with the lateral widths widened on both sides, so that the two elastic pieces 9 and 9 are elastically bent inward to each other and easily return. I have.

The inner periphery of the upper end of each of the two elastic pieces 9, 9 is provided with a curved edge 12, and the small-diameter column 4 has a lower edge 4a which is held from the lower end of the small-diameter column 4. It is easy to insert the member 3 into the upper cavity 3b.

An annular groove 13 is formed in the outer periphery of the upper part of the two elastic pieces 9, and an elastic force is applied to the two elastic pieces 9 by fitting the ring spring 10 into the annular groove 13. I have to.

The small diameter support 4 having a diameter slightly larger than the inner diameter of the two elastic pieces 9 and 9 is provided in the inner cavity 3 b of the holding member 3.
Is inserted, the small-diameter strut 4 resists the elastic force of the ring spring 10 and the two elastic pieces 9, 9 and these two elastic pieces 9, 9.
While expanding the inner diameter of the ring spring 10
Due to the elastic force of the two elastic pieces 9, 9, the small-diameter support 4 is pressed at an arbitrary position, and can be stopped at the position where the insertion is stopped.

Therefore, even if the inner cavity 3b (the inner periphery of the two elastic pieces 9) of the holding member 3 is worn and the inner diameter of the holding member 3 is enlarged, the ring spring 10 and the two pieces The elastic force of the elastic pieces 9 and 9 is maintained over time, and the small-diameter member 4 can be held at a fixed height.

As shown in FIG. 3 (b), the ring spring 10 has a C-shape as described above, and has a gap 10a cut in the middle to elastically expand and contract the diameter. Can be. By changing the thickness of the ring spring 10 or the material of the elastic member to be used, the tightening force of the ring spring 10 on the upper outer periphery of the holding member 3 can be adjusted.

Further, a plurality of elastic pieces 9 may be formed on the upper part of the holding member 3 not by dividing into two parts but by dividing into three or more vertical parts.
