BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a frame for placing a printed matter, a photograph, a pressed flower, a pressed leaf, a positive film or the like between transparent double glass plates and placing it on a table for viewing.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A tabletop frame is known in which a printed matter or the like is sandwiched between transparent double glass plates and inserted into a frame body, which is tilted on a tabletop for viewing. This will be described with reference to FIG. 4. The frame is a quadrilateral frame 1
And a transparent double glass plate (not shown), and a substantially U-shaped plastic support body 2. The frame body 1 is formed by combining an upper frame 1a, left and right frames 1b, 1c, and a lower frame 1d. To be done. The upper frame 1a and the left and right frames 1b, 1c are formed with grooves 3 inside, and the lower frame 1d is formed with a groove hole 4 penetrating up and down. The double glass plate is formed from below the lower frame 1d. It is inserted into the frame body 1 through the hole 4 and along the groove 3.

Further, two supporting holes 5 are formed in the lower frame 1d so as to penetrate therethrough in the front and rear direction, and the legs of the U-shaped supporting body 2 are fitted into the supporting holes 5 from the front side and inserted into the frame body 1. The double glass plate is prevented from slipping off and the frame 1 can be tilted and supported on the desk.

FIG. 5 shows another conventional example (the frame 1 and the double glass plate are the same as those in FIG. 4), in which the support 6 is a simple rod-like support and is inserted into the support hole 5. Body 6
Is fixed to the lower frame 1d by a rubber ring 7 so as to prevent the glass plate inserted into the frame 1 from slipping off and supporting the frame 1 on a desk in a tilted manner as in the conventional example. Is.

[0005]

In each of the above-mentioned conventional examples, a part of the support is exposed on the front surface of the frame body. Therefore, for example, when the frame body is made of wood, a warm feeling peculiar to the wooden frame body is obtained. The exposed portion impedes the transparency of the double glass plate and the pressed leaves sandwiched by the double glass plate. In view of such problems of the conventional example, the present invention prevents the glass plate or the like from slipping off with a simple structure without exposing the support body to the front surface of the frame body, and tilts the frame body to be placed on a tabletop. The purpose is to obtain a tabletop frame that can be supported.

[0006]

The present invention (Claim 1) has the following structure for the above object. That is, in a frame frame having a frame, a transparent double glass plate housed in the frame, and a support for inclining and supporting the frame, the frame includes (a) its left, right, and upper parts. Has a groove for accommodating the end portion of the double glass plate inside the frame,
(B) The lower frame has a vertically penetrating slot into which the double glass plate can be inserted, and (c) the lower frame has a supporting hole that reaches at least the groove from the rear surface but does not penetrate the front surface of the lower frame. Furthermore, the support is a tabletop frame which has a support groove for accommodating the lower end of one or both of the double glass plates and is fitted into the support hole. In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the support hole is formed beyond the slot of the lower frame, and shallow unevenness is formed on a part of one or both surfaces of the double glass plate. To be

[0007] Although the tabletop frame according to the above invention is suitable for viewing printed matter by sandwiching it between double glass plates, a flat ornament or the like is housed in a frame without sandwiching it between glass plates. In that case, the present invention does not require the double glass plate as an essential constituent element. That is,
According to the present invention (claim 4), in a frame and a frame frame having a support for inclining and supporting the frame, the frame includes (a) a flat plate-shaped cover on its left and right sides and inside the upper frame. The lower frame has a groove for accommodating the end of the contained object, and the lower frame has a vertically penetrating slot into which the contained object can be inserted. (C) The lower frame has at least the groove hole from the rear surface. The gist of the present invention is to have a support hole that reaches but does not pass through the front surface of the lower frame, and further that the support has a support groove for accommodating the lower end of the object and is fitted into the support hole.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The construction and operation of the present invention will be specifically described below with reference to FIGS. As shown in the perspective view of FIG. 1, the frame according to the present invention includes an upper frame 11a and left and right frames 11a and 11b.
A frame 11 constructed by assembling b, 11c, and a lower frame 11d, and a transparent double glass plate 12 (see FIG. 2).
And consists of two supports 13. Grooves 14 are formed inside the upper frame 11a and the left and right frames 11b, 11c to accommodate the ends of the double glass plate 12, and the double glass plate 12 can be inserted into the lower frame 11c from below. The slot 15 is formed. In addition, the lower frame 11d includes a lower frame 1
The lower frame 11d which penetrates the rear part e of 1d and crosses the slot 15
A support hole 16 that reaches the front portion f of the lower frame 11 (but does not reach the front surface of the lower frame 11d (see FIG. 3)) is formed.
Further, a support groove 17 for accommodating the lower ends of the double glass plates 12 is formed in the front part of the support body 13, and the frame body 11 is formed in the rear part.
An inclination 13a is provided so that the can be stably supported.

When using this frame, first, a printed matter or the like is appropriately sandwiched between two glass plates 12a and 12b, and this is passed from below the frame 11 through the slot 15 to the frame 14 along the groove 14. The support 13 is inserted all the way to the back, and then the support 13 is inserted into the support hole 16 so that the support groove 17 faces the upper side of the frame 11 and the slope 13a faces downward. The frame thus assembled can be placed on a desk while being inclined. Here, the lower end of the double glass plate 12 is fitted into and supported by the support groove 17 of the support body 13 and does not slide down, and the support body 13 does not easily come out of the support hole 16.

By the way, in the above embodiment, the lower ends of both the glass plates 12a and 12b of the double glass plate 12 are fitted in the groove 17 of the support 13, but in the present invention, either one of the glass plates 12a and 12b is fitted. You may make it fit only the lower end of. In addition, in the above embodiment, the support hole 16 is formed in the lower frame 11.
d from the rear surface of the lower frame 11d through the rear portion e of the lower frame 11d.
Although it is formed so as to extend beyond 5 and reach the front portion f of the lower frame 11d, it is not necessarily required to reach the front portion f of the lower frame 11d. That is, the support hole 16 is only a hole that penetrates the rear portion e of the lower frame 11d, and in that case, the tip of the support body 13 inserted into the support hole 16 contacts the inside of the front portion f of the lower frame 11d. They come into contact with each other (at this time, it is preferable that only the rear glass plate 12b is fitted into the support groove 17 of the support 13). When the thickness of the front part f of the lower frame 11d is small,
Since it is generally difficult to form a blind hole there by a drill, it can be said that it is advantageous from the viewpoint of drilling, to use only the hole penetrating the rear portion e of the lower frame 11d in this way.

In the present invention, an inclination corresponding to the inclination 13a of the support 13 can be formed on the bottom of the lower frame 11d so that the frame 11 can be supported more stably.
In addition, the frame body 11 includes four frames 11a to 1a in the above embodiment.
1d is assembled, and the material thereof is preferably wood, but it can be manufactured by using other materials, and the frame body 11 is configured as an integrated body instead of a combination of a plurality of frames. You can do whatever you want.

Further, according to the present invention, a shallow unevenness such as a carving or a pickpocket having some pattern can be formed on an appropriate portion of one or both surfaces of the double glass plate 12.
When putting irregularities having a depth of about 0.1 mm around the printed matter on the inside of the glass, the irregularity can prevent the printed matter sandwiched between the double glass plates from shifting downwards. From a decorative point of view, by putting pickpockets in the peripheral part of the glass, a more luxurious feeling can be obtained.

[0013]

According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent a double glass plate or the like housed in the support body from falling off without exposing the support body to the front surface of the frame body, and to support the frame body on a desk by inclining it. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a tabletop frame with a support that does not easily come off and the structure of which is extremely simple.
