Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an information recording medium stand capable of supporting an information recording medium on which predetermined information is displayed and / or recorded. [Background technology]

[0002] There are various types of information recording media, such as paper media and electronic media, and these media come in a variety of sizes. Meanwhile, in recent years, there has been an increasing number of cases where certificates, while retaining their function as conventional written documents (paper media) with visible information, have been made to have separately recorded information (data) that can be read externally, and such information is used to expedite procedures that require certificates. Methods for allowing such readable information to coexist with paper documents include issuing documents as IC cards and attaching RF tags to paper documents (electronic media).

[0003] To read information recorded on an IC card or an RF tag attached to a document, or to write information to the IC card or RF tag, a reader / writer compatible with the IC card or RF tag is used.

[0004] Conventional reader / writers require IC cards and RF tags to be placed on the reader / writer. By placing the IC card or RF tag within the writer's communication range, the information can be read correctly. It is designed so that you can write and draw on it. An example of such a conventional reader / writer is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-113727. There are some things that can be done.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-113727 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] The conventional reader / writer has the configuration shown in the above patent document, and is compatible with general IC cards. To accommodate these cards, they have been miniaturized to a size similar to that of an IC card. For this reason, documents with RF tags attached to paper documents, etc., are larger than IC cards and require a reader. In the case of documents that are larger than the reader / writer, conventional reader / writers cannot read RF tags. It is difficult to align documents so that they can be read and written by RF tags and readers. If these parts are misaligned, the reader / writer may not be able to read the data. In addition to not being able to read the recorded information correctly, it is executed regardless of the unstable state of reading and writing. The problem is that the writing fails midway, destroying the information recorded in the RF tag. It had an issue.

[0007] In addition, RF tags on documents are usually small compared to the overall size of the paper document. If the location of the RF tag is not specified on the document or if the user does not specify the location of the RF tag on the document, If the position of the RF tag is not known in advance, it is necessary to align the RF tag correctly with the reader / writer. It is expected that it will take time to do so.

[0008] In addition, a designated worker checks whether the electronic information recorded on the document matches the printed information. When checking the contents of a document for confirmation purposes, the reader / writer must be small and easy to use. While ensuring that electronic information can be read and written using a reader / writer, documents can be read and written in accordance with the contents of the document. It has been difficult to maintain a state in which the image is easily visible.

[0009] The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide an information recording medium stand that can properly support and handle information recording media of various sizes. In addition, when the information recording medium is a paper document with an RF tag attached, By properly setting the positional relationship between the F tag and the reader / writer, the reader / writer can read information. The object of the present invention is to provide an information recording medium stand that allows reliable reading and writing. [Means for solving the problem]

The bottom plate portion 11a is disposed so as to protrude toward the bottom portion 12. Here, two bottom plate portions 11a are disposed side by side at a predetermined interval, and an opening 11b is formed in the middle.

[0039] In addition, the front panel portion 12 is inclined at two locations on one long side of the main panel portion 11. A support shaft 11c is provided for movably supporting the support member 11. The bottom plate 11a is provided at a predetermined position below the bottom plate 11a, and the front panel 12 is provided with a tilt adjustment lever 112a. During operation, movements other than tilting of the front panel portion 12, such as the movement of the support shaft of the front panel portion 12, A movement restricting portion 11d is provided to restrict displacement of the front panel portion 12 relative to the axis 11c in a direction perpendicular to the axis 11c. The movement restricting portion 11d is formed in a rib shape with a curved (arched) front end surface, and is configured so that tilting of the front panel portion 12 is not hindered even if the vicinity of the lower end of the front panel portion 12 abuts against the movement restricting portion 11d when tilting the front panel portion 12. Furthermore, the movement restricting portion 11d can be formed integrally with the bottom plate portion 11a. In this case, it is preferable that the tip end surface of the bottom plate portion 11a and the front end surface of the movement restricting portion 11d are formed continuously.

[0040] The main panel 11 has two side portions on one side thereof, each of which is provided with a front panel 12 for insertion. In this way, the sides of the gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11 are reliably closed. The front panel portion 12 is then attached to the vertical groove 11e for attaching the front panel portion 12 to the vertical groove 11e. The main panel 11 has an engagement hole 11f for holding the main panel 11 so as not to move. can be done.

[0041] In the main panel portion 11, a vertical groove portion 11e on one side and a vertical groove portion 11e on the other side The gap between these and a part of the front panel 12 inserted therein is The width of the panel 12 is equal to or larger than the width of the panel 11. The size is such that the document 50 can be supported without difficulty and can be easily taken in and out.

[0042] When the main panel 11 is installed on the installation surface 90 of the support base 10, the front of the main panel 11 is The area corresponding to the center of the upper part when viewed from the side is a cutout portion 11g having a partially cutout shape. The position of such a cutout is not limited to the center, but may be near one side of the main panel. The front view of the main panel 11 including the part facing the notch 11g Each corner portion that forms part of the outer shell is chamfered to form a rounded shape. Each corner of the main panel portion 11 may be formed in a C-chamfered shape.

[0043] In addition, the intersections of one surface of the main panel portion 11 and the end surfaces in each direction (up and down and left and right directions) The corners can also be rounded or chamfered, and the notched part 11g The corner where the end surface (the upper end surface in the installed state) and the one surface intersects is chamfered. Then, the document 50 is moved downward from above to between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11. When the document 50 is supported, it hits the upper end surface of the main panel portion 11 and is prevented from moving. The document 50 is supported smoothly between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11. Furthermore, when document 50 is removed upward, it is possible to prevent document 50 from being pressed against a corner and thereby bending or deforming document 50. Furthermore, even if document 50 is picked up with the fingers at the position of the chamfered portion of notch 11g or at a position below the chamfered portion when removing document 50, document 50 can be removed smoothly by tracing the chamfered portion of notch 11g with the fingers.

[0044] In addition, with the document 50 supported between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11, The upper end of the main panel 11 is the chamfered portion at the upper end of the main panel 11 when viewed from the front side of the main panel 11. The document 50 is positioned at the same position as the bottom end of the document or above the bottom end, so that the document 50 can be easily picked up with the fingers when taken out.

[0045] The area surrounding the notch 11g in the main panel 11 can be used as a grip. For example, when the reader / writer 20 is inserted into or removed from the accommodation portion 14 of the support base 10, the notch Insert part of your hand (such as a finger) into the notch 11g and use the area around this notch 11g as a guide. By holding the support base 10 with the hand, the support base 10 does not slip out of the hand even if an external force is applied. The support 10 can be easily supported by hand so that it does not move, and the reader This allows the writer 20 to be inserted and removed smoothly.

[0046] The central portion of the support base 10 where the notch 11g of the main panel portion 11 is formed is a lead wire as will be described later. It can also be used as a part for easily winding and bundling the cable 22 of the lighter 20. Furthermore, if a notch is also provided in the lower part of the main panel 11 or the front panel 12, the wrapped cable 22 is less likely to slip out of the notch when it is wound around the main panel 11 or the front panel 12, as with the upper notch 11g, and the cables can be organized compactly. The notch provided in the lower part of the main panel 11 or the front panel 12 should preferably be provided within the range where the notch 11g is provided.

[0047] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 12, a brand logo is printed on the upper portion of one surface of the main panel portion 11. It is also possible to form a display section 11h for characters and symbols such as a guide for inserting a document. The display unit 11h may have, for example, a character around the character indicating each supporting position of the document 50 or the IC card 60. If symbols such as arrows indicating the insertion direction of the IC card 60 or the type 50 are arranged, This is preferable because it has a guide function.

[0048] The display section 11h has a step or surface roughness between the area corresponding to the characters or symbols and the surrounding area. By adding differences in shape, etc., characters and symbols can be easily distinguished. For example, the character area of ​​the display unit 11h may be made a smooth surface, while the area around the character may be made a smooth surface. By using a textured surface, the characters can be made identifiable. By making the area other than the display section 11h a smooth surface, the display section 11h is made more prominent. It is possible.

[0049] Depending on the color of the main panel 11, the characters and symbols formed on the display area may be difficult to see. Even in such cases, the area of ​​the letters or symbols can be made to have a raised portion relative to the surrounding area. For example, if the display portion 11h is formed in a raised state, it is possible to ensure the distinguishability. The area around the character is made into a concave shape, and the area around the character is made into a concave shape. By making the shape relatively convex, the character discriminability can be further improved.

[0050] In addition, the main panel 11 is configured to hold the RF tag 52 when the document 50 is supported on the support base 10. As one of the additional functional parts, an IC card 6 different from the document 50 is placed at a predetermined position overlapping the position of the document 50. 0, the reader / writer 20 reads and writes information on the IC card 60. The card is configured to have a card support portion 11i that allows writing of information.

[0051] The card support portion 11i is located on one side of the main panel portion 11. The recessed portion 11k is a predetermined area adjacent to the edge (side portion) that is recessed toward the other surface of the main panel portion 11 (see FIGS. 6, 8, and 20). The IC card 60 accommodated in the recessed portion 11k that forms the card support portion 11i is positioned so as to overlap the location of the RF tag 52 of the document 50 when the document 50 is supported by the support base 10.

[0052] As a result, the card support portion 11i supports the IC card 60 in accordance with the information stored in the reader / writer 20. Supports reading and writing of information to this IC card 60. can.

[0053] The card is supported by the card support portion 11i and serves as a target for reading and writing information by the reader / writer 20. The IC card 60 is, for example, an IC card type driver's license or a personal number card (My Number). This corresponds to "ID-1" in the card standard ISO / IEC7810, such as the "ID-1" bar card.

[0054] The card support portion 11i has protrusions 11j on the front side of the upper and lower edges of the recessed portion 11k. These protrusions 11j partially protrude in a roughly claw-like shape from the edge toward the recessed portion 11k and are provided in a direction parallel to (along) the long sides of the main panel portion 11. These protrusions 11j are designed to restrain the IC card 60 accommodated in the card support portion 11i so that it does not come out of the recessed portion 11k of the card support portion 11i toward the front side thereof.

[0055] The movement of the card support portion 11i is restricted by the protrusion 11j of the card support portion 11i. The IC card 60 is inserted into the main panel 11 with its longitudinal direction aligned with the long side of the main panel 11. The IC card 60 can be inserted and removed in the same direction as the long side of the support base 1. 10 on the installation surface 90, the insertion and removal direction of the document 50 is different from the insertion and removal direction of the card support portion 11 The IC card 60 is inserted and removed horizontally relative to the recessed portion 11k. One or more protrusions 11j may be arranged side by side on the upper edge and / or lower edge of the recessed portion 11k. Furthermore, by providing the protrusions 11j closer to one of the short sides (right side) of the main panel portion 11 than the center position of the recessed portion 11k in the left-right direction, when the IC card 60 is inserted into the recessed portion 11k of the card support portion 11i, the IC card 60 can be caught by the protrusions 11j and smoothly guided to the left edge side of the recessed portion 11k.

[0056] The entrance of the card support portion 11i in the main panel portion 11 is formed at one short end of the main panel portion 11. The recessed portion 11k constituting the card support portion 11i is disposed along the side (right side) of the main panel portion 11, but the range of the recessed portion 11k constituting the card support portion 11i from one short side of the main panel portion 11 (the left-right dimension of the recessed portion 11k, and the distance between the entrance of the card support portion 11i in the recessed portion 11k and the end portion opposite the entrance) is made smaller than the longitudinal dimension of the IC card 60. Therefore, when the IC card 60 is accommodated, the end portion of the IC card 60 near the one short side is positioned outside the card support portion 11i, and the IC card 60 protrudes from the main panel portion 11. Specifically, when the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, a part of the IC card 60 accommodated in the card support portion 11i located to the right as viewed from the front side of the main panel portion 11 protrudes laterally from one short side of the main panel portion 11, which is the right side as viewed from the front side of the main panel portion 11.

[0057] In this way, even when the IC card 60 is housed, a part of the IC card 60 does not protrude from the main panel portion 11. The IC card 60 can be easily picked up with the fingers and inserted into the card support portion 11i. Furthermore, if a notch is provided on the right side of front panel 12, more specifically in the area facing recess 11k of front panel 12, IC card 60 can be more easily held with fingers.

[0058] Furthermore, of the recessed portion 11k that forms the card support portion 11i, the portion near the entrance / exit of the card support portion 11i, in other words, a predetermined range portion closer to one of the short sides (right side) of the main panel portion 11, has an inclined structure in which the recess becomes shallower as it approaches one of the short sides (right side) of the main panel portion 11.

[0059] This inclined portion is provided from one short side (right side) of the main panel portion 11 to a position beyond the vertical groove portion 11e, and when the IC card 60 is inserted into the card support portion 11i while aligning it with this inclination, the IC card 60 can be placed directly along the bottom of the recessed portion 11k that forms the card support portion 11i, and the IC card 60 can be positioned smoothly on the back side of the protrusion 11j of the card support portion 11i, ensuring that the IC card 60 is restrained by the protrusion 11j. The inclined structure may be one in which a plurality of different inclinations are formed continuously.

[0060] Furthermore, the opening portion of the card support portion 11i of the main panel portion 11 is formed in an opening shape that widens vertically as it approaches one of the short sides (right side) of the main panel portion 11 to make it easier to insert and remove the IC card 60.

[0061] This expanded shape portion is provided from one short side (right side) of the main panel portion 11 to a position beyond the vertical groove portion 11e, and even if there is some deviation in the insertion position or direction of the IC card 60, the IC card 60 is guided toward the center of the card support portion 11i, allowing it to be inserted into the card support portion 11i without any problems. The inclined region in the inclined structure and the expanded region in the expanded shape may be different, but making them coincident makes it easier to recognize the two regions.

[0062] The front panel 12 is made of a transparent or semi-transparent plastic material such as acrylic resin (PMMA), polycarbonate (PC), or polystyrene (PS), and is formed as a rectangular plate, allowing the contents written on the surface of the document 50 to be seen through the front panel 12. The plastic material forming the front panel 12 may be acrylic resin (PMMA), polypropylene (PP), or the like. The main panel 11 and the front panel 12 may be formed from the same plastic material as above.

[0063] The front panel portion 12 is smaller than the main panel portion 11, and in particular, has a shorter side than the main panel portion 11. The ratio of the size in the long side direction to the size in the long side direction is smaller than that of the long side direction. A predetermined gap 19 is provided between the main panel portion 11 and the one surface of the main panel portion 11. The electrodes are arranged in such a manner that the electrodes are parallel to each other.

[0064] The front panel portion 12 has one long side aligned with one long side of the main panel portion 11, specifically, with the support. When the holder 10 is installed, it is positioned near the long side that is closest to the installation surface 90. The front panel 12 has a long edge, and the main panel 11 has two edges. The support shaft 11c has two hook portions 12a which are detachably engaged with the support shaft 11c. These hook portions 12a are engaged in a state in which they can rotate around the support shaft 11c of the main panel portion 11. , and together with the support shaft 11c, form a hinge mechanism, which tilts the front panel portion 12 relative to the main panel portion 11. The engagement between the hook portion 12a and the support shaft 11c allows the front panel The front panel 12 and the main panel 13 are used as auxiliary functions for handling the document 50. The gap 19 between the front panel part 12 and the main panel part 11 can be opened by tilting the front panel part 12 relative to the main panel part 11. This is a structure that is considered to be Noh.

[0065] The front panel 12 has two long side edges, i.e., two short side edges, at which the front panel 12 has two short side edges. The front panel portion 12 has the side plates 12b protruding from it. By positioning the panel 11 between the main panel 11 and the panel 11, a gap 19 is secured between the panel 11 and the main panel 11. By providing side plates 12b at both the left and right ends of the front panel portion 12, a gap 19 is secured when the top is open, but by providing upper and lower plates at both the top and bottom ends of the front panel portion 12, a gap can be secured when the left or right side is open, allowing documents 50 to be inserted and removed from the left or right.

[0066] When the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the upper part of the side plate 12b is in contact with the front panel portion 12. The side panel 1 is located above the other long side and is tapered toward the top. At the upper part of 2b, at each corner where the inner and outer surfaces of the side plate 12b intersect with the end faces in each direction, The side plate 12b has a chamfered edge. Further, a locking piece 12c that can be engaged with the engagement hole 11f of the main panel portion 11 is provided.

[0067] The upper end position of the side plate 12b is approximately aligned with the lower end position of the chamfered portion of the upper end surface of the main panel portion 11. The tapered upper portion of the side panel 12b is fitted to the chamfer of the main panel portion 11. By making the document 50 continuous with the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11, When the document 50 is supported by the main panel 12b, even if the document 50 hits the upper part of the side panel 12b, the main panel 12b As with the chamfered portion of 11, the writing is performed in the gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11. The upper end of the side panel 12b may be positioned below the lower end of the chamfered portion at the upper end of the main panel portion 11.

[0068] The side plates 12b have longitudinal grooves at their ends near the main panel portion 11. By inserting the side panel 12b into the main panel 11e, a gap 19 is formed between the side panel 12b and the main panel 11. No openings that would cause the gap 19 to be broken are formed, and the side of the gap 19 is kept closed. This prevents the document 50 from getting between the locking part 11 and the door. This can prevent the type 50 from shifting from the correct support state.

[0069] Furthermore, the portion of the end of side plate 12b facing recessed portion 11k forming card support portion 11i of main panel portion 11 is configured to create a gap between card support portion 11i and IC card 60 to allow the IC card 60 to pass through so as not to prevent the IC card 60 from being inserted into card support portion 11i, while preventing an excessive gap from being created between IC card 60 and side plate 12b when IC card 60 is supported by card support portion 11i (see FIGS. 6 and 8). The opening created as the gap between the end of side plate 12b and card support portion 11i thus serves as an insertion port for IC card 60 when IC card 60 is inserted into card support portion 11i. If the card support portion 11i does not have a protrusion 11j for restraining the IC card 60, the end of the side plate 12b facing this card support portion 11i will also have the role of restraining the IC card 60 inserted into the card support portion 11i from the front, and holding the IC card 60 so that it does not move from the state in which it is properly supported by the card support portion 11i.

[0070] The side plate 12b is fitted with a locking piece 12c protruding from its upper portion into the engagement hole 11 of the main panel portion 11. By inserting and engaging the front panel part 12 into the main panel part 11, the front panel part 12 is immovable relative to the main panel part 11. However, the locking piece 12c can be engaged with and disengaged from the engagement hole 11f. 2c is released from the engagement hole 11f and the locking piece 12c is removed, the front panel portion 12 The panel 10 is brought into a state in which it can be tilted relative to the main panel portion 11.

[0071] As shown in FIG. 19, the locking piece 12c of the side plate 12b has a claw-like shape that protrudes laterally from the tip end. The engaging piece 12c is inserted laterally into the rectangular engaging hole 11f which is wider than the longitudinal groove 11e. After passing the hook-shaped portion through the hole 11f of the main panel 11, However, it is not limited to this, and for example, For example, the locking piece has a shape in which a protruding portion is provided at the tip end in the vertical direction, and the locking piece is The hole portion is provided at its side end with a portion expanded vertically so that the tip of the locking piece can pass through. Bend the locking piece sideways against the mating hole, and pass the tip of the locking piece through the upper and lower expansion parts of the mating hole. Then, hook the tip of the locking piece onto the upper and lower edges of the part of the engagement hole that is not the upper and lower expanded part. It is also possible to use a mechanism for engaging the two.

[0072] The gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11 is formed by the engagement piece 1 2c is engaged with the engaging hole 11f of the main panel portion 11, the side plate 12b and the bottom plate The sides and bottom are closed by the portion 11a, and only the top is open. In this way, the document 50 is inserted from above into the gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11. The document 50 inserted in the gap 19 can be inserted and removed upward, and the document 50 can be further inserted. The bottom plate 11a restricts the movement of the document 50 in the forward direction, and the side plate 12b restricts the movement of the document 50 in the lateral direction. Then, a document 50 is placed in the gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11. It is a system that can be supported by the government.

[0073] The document 50 placed between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11 is removed by the user. The main panel 11 surrounds the document 50 except for moving up and down in response to the operation related to insertion. The front panel 12, the side panels 12b, and the bottom panel 11a allow the device to be easily moved in directions other than upward. The front panel 12 and the main panel 11 are supported in a restrained state so as not to cause any In addition, if anything other than a document accidentally gets into the gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11, Even if something, such as small dust or water, gets in, it can be easily caught in the middle of the bottom plate portion 11a. The document 50 can be removed from the opening 11b located at the Easy to do.

[0074] The front panel 12 is inserted into a gap 19 at a predetermined position on the surface facing the main panel 11. The inserted document 50 is pushed toward the main panel portion 11, and the bottom plate portion 11a of the main panel portion 11 is pushed toward the main panel portion 11. The main panel has a protrusion 12d for preventing the edge of the document 50 from entering between the edge of the main panel and the front panel portion 12. It is configured to protrude toward the part 11.

[0075] In detail, the protrusion 12d is formed on the surface of the front panel 12 facing the main panel 11. A predetermined position closer to the hook portion 12a than the center position in the short side direction of the front panel portion 12, Preferably, the position is immediately above the portion facing the tip of the bottom plate portion 11a of the main panel portion 11 (see FIG. 1 7) in a direction parallel to the long side of the front panel portion 12, and is provided continuously for a predetermined length. (See Figure 10).

[0076] The protrusion 12d covers the tip of the bottom plate 11a of the main panel 11 from above, and Even if there is a gap between the tip of 11a and the front panel portion 12, the document 50 will not reach there. In this way, the document 50 can be prevented from reaching the tip of the bottom plate portion 11a of the main panel portion 11. and the front panel portion 12, the bottom end of the document 50 does not slip out through the gap 19. This prevents the documents 50 from falling out, and the documents 50 can be securely fastened to the gap 19 and properly positioned. The reader / writer 20 reads and writes information from and to the RF tag 52 of the document 50, and In addition, it is possible to stably read the information written on the backing sheet 51. The document 50 that has entered between the tip of the bottom plate 11a of the cover 11 and the front panel 12 is forcibly removed. It is also possible to avoid situations where the document 50 is bent or deformed or damaged by pulling it out. stomach.

[0077] The protrusion amount of the protrusion 12d is determined by the distance between one surface of the main panel 11 and the opposite surface of the front panel 12. The distance should be 1 / 2 or less of the distance to the back surface, preferably 1 / 4 or less, and more preferably 1 / 8 or less. Only one protrusion 12d is provided continuously parallel to the long side of the front panel portion 12. However, a plurality of protrusions 12d may be provided intermittently. The convex portion 12d has a shape that tapers toward the convex portion 11, such as a mountain-shaped cross section or a semicircular cross section. It is preferable that the upper part of the panel 11 is shaped to form a surface that is inclined toward the main panel portion 11. The size, arrangement, and shape of the protrusions 12d are not limited to those described above, and may be changed depending on the front panel. The protrusions 12 and 13 are arranged in accordance with the relative positions of the main panel 11 and the type and size of the document 50. The section can be appropriately set so as to perform the auxiliary function.

[0078] The protrusion 12d contacts the document 50 inserted in the gap 19, and holds the document 50 in place on the main panel. The document 50 is also moved toward the main panel 11. The RF tag 52 is placed close to the reader / writer 20 located on the other side of the main panel 11. This improves the reliability of the reader / writer 20 reading and writing information from and to the RF tag 52. This will be the case.

[0079] If it is only necessary to move the document 50 toward the main panel 11, the protrusion It may be provided on either side of the face panel portion facing the main panel portion, but it is more preferable to Or, place the protrusion on the other long side of the front panel (when the support base is installed on the installation surface). The device is configured to be installed on the upper part of the front panel.

[0080] The protrusion 12d prevents the document 50 from entering between the tip of the bottom plate 11a and the front panel 12. As another structure for preventing the occurrence of the noise, a surface of the front panel portion 12 facing the main panel portion 11 is provided. A protrusion is provided at a position facing the opening 11b sandwiched between the bottom plate portions 11a of the main panel portion 11. In this case, the upper surface of the protrusion is substantially flush with the upper surface of the bottom plate portion 11a. It is more preferable to provide it as follows.

[0081] The front panel portion 12 is fitted with the engagement piece 12c in the engagement hole 11f of the main panel portion 11. When the engagement of the locking piece 12c with the engagement hole 11f is released from the state in which the front panel part 1 is in the locked position, 2 is tilted relative to the main panel portion 11, and the gap between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11 is 19 can be unfolded to an open state (see FIG. 16).

[0082] In this way, the gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11 can be opened. If a foreign object accidentally gets into the gap 19 and cannot be removed, 12 is tilted to open the gap 19, and the foreign object can be easily removed. This will prevent adverse effects on the

[0083] When tilting the front panel portion 12, the movement restricting portion 11d of the main panel portion 11 restricts the front panel portion 12. Since the movement of the front panel portion 12 other than the tilting movement is restricted, the front panel portion 12 is prevented from moving during tilting. When the lock portion 12a tries to come off from the support shaft 11c of the main panel portion 11, This prevents the hook portion 12a from being displaced in a direction that would cause an excessive load to be applied to the hook portion 12a (a direction in which the inner peripheral surface of the hook portion 12a does not come into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the support shaft 11c) (see FIG. 17).

[0084] The front panel 12 is attached to a part of the main panel 11 at a predetermined location on the outer periphery of the hook 12a. The front panel 12 has a projection 12e that can be easily tilted with a light force. Then, the protrusion 12e hits a part of the main panel 11 and stops, and the preset The front panel 12 can be maintained at a predetermined opening angle (see FIG. 17). Normally, the front panel 1 can be tilted within the range of the predetermined opening angle. The predetermined opening angle of the panel 2 relative to the main panel portion 11 is set to about 35°. The position and shape of the protrusion 12e on the outer periphery of the hook portion 12a are set and adjusted. Furthermore, a plurality of protrusions 12e may be provided on the outer periphery of the hook portion 12a, and a predetermined opening angle (multiple stages of tilting state) can be set in accordance with the number of protrusions 12e provided.

[0085] When the front panel 12 is opened at the predetermined angle, a stronger force is applied to the front panel 12. When the hook 12a is tilted forward (opened) relative to the main panel 11, the protrusion 12 e moves beyond the end of the main panel portion 11 and tilts the front panel portion 12 to a larger opening angle. It can be moved.

[0086] When the support base 10 is not placed on the installation surface 90, for example, when the support base 10 is lifted, the front panel portion 1 2 is not restricted by the installation surface 90, and can be tilted in a direction that further increases the opening angle. It becomes Noh.

[0087] When front panel 12 is tilted to a predetermined angle relative to main panel 11, specifically to the maximum opening angle (maximum opening angle, limit opening angle), here 180° or more, the movement of hook 12a of front panel 12 is no longer restricted by the positional relationship with each part of main panel 11, such as movement restricting portion 11d, and hook 12a can be displaced relative to support shaft 11c of main panel 11 (see FIG. 18). In this state, when front panel 12 is moved in a direction such that hook 12a is disengaged from support shaft 11c, front panel 12 can be detached and separated from main panel 11.

[0088] When attaching the front panel 12 to the main panel 11, the above steps are reversed, i.e. The front panel 12 is tilted relative to the main panel 11, which is separated from the installation surface 90. An orientation corresponding to a state in which the opening angle of the panel portion 12 relative to the main panel portion 11 is 180° or more. After holding the front panel 12 so that it is in this position, hook the hook 12a of the front panel 12 onto the It is sufficient to engage it with the support shaft 11c of the panel portion 11.

[0089] The front panel portion 12 is detachable from the main panel portion 11, so that the front panel portion 1 If a foreign object accidentally gets into the gap 19 between the cover 2 and the main panel 11 and cannot be removed, Even if the front panel portion 12 is not tilted, the front panel portion 12 can be tilted further from the main panel portion 11. By removing the front panel 12 facing the gap 19, foreign matter can be easily removed. This also makes it easier to clean each surface of the main panel portion 11, and removes dirt and dust that has adhered to these surfaces. It can be removed without difficulty and will avoid any adverse impact on the support of Document 50.

[0090] On the other hand, when the front panel portion 12 is tilted relative to the main panel portion 11, the hook portion 12 a) The front panel portion 12 is opened to a predetermined position relative to the main panel portion 11 by the action of the protrusions 12e on the periphery. The front panel 12 and the main panel 11 can be tilted within a range of angles up to the tilt angle. and to remove foreign matter that has entered the gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11. The front panel 12 can be cleaned without completely removing it from the main panel 11. If this can be done without any problems, perform this operation by tilting the front panel portion 12 to open the gap 19. This can be done quickly by simply opening the front panel 12, eliminating the need to remove the front panel 12. In addition, the risk of loss, etc., occurring when the front panel portion 12 is removed can be avoided. can.

[0091] The other long side of front panel 12, specifically the long side (upper end) that will be on the upper side when support base 10 is installed, is positioned below notch 11g of main panel 11 when viewed from the front side of main panel 11. In detail, the other long side (upper end) of front panel 12 is positioned at the same level as the lower end of the chamfered portion of notch 11g in main panel 11 or below this lower end when viewed from the front side of main panel 11. In addition, the position of the other long side of front panel 12 is set to be approximately the same height as the upper edge of recessed portion 11k that forms card support portion 11i in main panel 11.

[0092] That is, the notch 11g of the main panel portion 11 is located on the front side of the main panel portion 11. It is arranged so as not to overlap with the panel portion 12 and is supported along one surface of the main panel portion 11. The document 50 can be easily picked up with the fingers through the notch 11g. The other long side of the panel overlaps the other long side of the main panel when viewed from the front side of the main panel. In addition, it is also possible to provide a cutout portion on the front panel similar to that on the main panel. It won't turn.

[0093] Furthermore, the front panel portion 12 is configured to hold the document 50 in a state where the document 50 is supported on the support base 10. The information written on the mount is placed at a predetermined position overlapping at least a part of the written matter on the mount 51. an attention drawing unit that draws attention to at least a part of the portion; More specifically, the front panel 12 has a structure in which the front panel 12 is attached to the backing 51 as an attention-grabbing portion. At least a part of the information (visible information) is visible from the outside at a size different from the actual size. The lens portion 12f can be provided.

[0094] The lens portion 12f of the front panel portion 12 serves as an attention-grabbing portion. The prescribed information as written matters on the paper 51 is made easy to see from the outside by enlarging it, etc., and the user It is intended to draw attention to the document 50 and should be placed opposite the important information. It is preferable to do so.

[0095] The lens portion 12f is configured to be a convex lens by changing its thickness at each position in the vertical direction. However, depending on the application, it can be formed into a concave lens or the degree of change in thickness can be reduced. Alternatively, the lens portion 12f may be formed as a thin Fresnel lens. The part where the front panel 12 is installed is set on the front side of the front panel 12, which does not face the main panel 11. The gap 19 of the front panel portion 12 and the rear side facing the main panel portion 11 may be included. In this case, the lens portion 12f may be set to protrude in a convex shape toward the main panel portion 11. The shape of the protrusion 12d is also used as the protrusion 12d. The document 50 is moved toward the main panel portion 11, and the tip of the bottom plate portion 11a of the main panel portion 11 and the front panel The structure may also have a function of preventing the end of the document 50 from entering between the guide portion 12 and the guide portion 12.

[0096] When using the lens portion 12f, the side of the front panel portion 12 facing the main panel portion 11 is The convex portion 12d and the lens portion itself, which also serves as the convex portion 12d, move the document 50 toward the main panel portion 11, and the document 50 and the lens portion 12f can be adjusted to a suitable positional relationship that has been set in advance. As a result, the contents of the corresponding portion of the document 50 can be clearly seen through the lens portion 12f. It can be secured.

[0097] The leg portion 13 is made of plastic such as acrylic resin, similar to the main panel portion 11. The other surface of the panel portion 11 opposite to the one surface side of the panel portion 11 is the front of the main panel portion 11. The two portions near the long side of the one of the panels are connected and integrated with the main panel portion 11 at approximately right angles. It is configured to be disposed so as to protrude from the panel portion 11.

[0098] The leg 13 is formed as a shallow, box-like body with a plate-like bottom and a wall-like portion standing up around it. An object can be placed on the upper side of the bottom of the leg 13, and the leg 13 is configured to be It can also be configured to store predetermined items on it as part of the storage section.

[0099] The distal end of the leg 13 relative to the main panel 11 is 13, and the end of the one long side near the desk top surface on which the support base 10 is to be installed. When the support base 10 comes into contact with the installation surface 90, such as the above, the support base 10 is placed in an installed state. In the installed state, the main panel portion 11 is inclined toward the leg portion 13, and one surface of the main panel portion 11 is upright. The main panel 11 is tilted at an angle of about 20° from the upright position, and the main panel 11 moves along the inclined surface. The document 50 is supported in this state.

[0100] The legs 13 are in direct contact with the installation surface 90 at their distal ends relative to the main panel 11. In addition, feet (rubber feet) made of a material that is non-slip on the installation surface 90, such as rubber or elastomer, can be attached to the distal ends (bottom surfaces of the legs) of the legs 13 relative to the main panel 11, and the feet (rubber feet) can reliably prevent the legs 13 from slipping off the installation surface 90, further stabilizing the installation state of the support base 10. When feet (rubber feet) are provided, it is advisable to provide marks indicating the installation (sticking) positions of the feet (rubber feet).

[0101] The leg 13 is connected to the main panel 11 at a position where one long side of the main panel 11 is connected to the storage section 14. This is because the support base 10 is located closer to the receiving portion 14 than the center position of the area between the support base 10 and the receiving portion 14. In the state where the main panel 11 is installed on the surface 90, in the area from one long side of the main panel 11 to the lower end of the storage section 14, The center of gravity of the support base 10 is located above the center of gravity of the legs 13. The support base 13 can stand upright without any difficulty by not being positioned at the rear, and the main panel portion 11 can be properly Specifically, one surface of the main panel portion 11 is tilted by 20 degrees or more from the upright position. In other words, the angle between the main panel 11 and the installation surface 90 is set to 70° or less. The connecting position is set so that the tilt is maintained until the

[0102] The leg portion 13 is configured to have two substantially box-shaped parts, but is not limited to this. The leg 13 may be configured to have only one or three or more legs. The shape is not limited to this, and other shapes, such as a plate or rod, may also be used.

[0103] The legs 13 are arranged so as to protrude from the other surface of the main panel 11 at a substantially right angle. In addition, the main panel is inclined at certain points including the end of the main panel. The structure is such that the projections are arranged so as to protrude from the main panel in a predetermined direction corresponding to the desired angle. In this case, the direction in which the legs protrude relative to the main panel can be changed, and the support base can be The tilt angle of the main panel in the installed state may be adjustable.

[0104] Furthermore, the legs 13 tilt the main panel 11 when the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90. The main panel may be provided in an upright position, not just in an inclined position. It's okay to do that.

[0105] The storage section 14 is one of the additional functional sections in the main panel section 11. The reader / writer is disposed at a predetermined position near one of the short sides of the main panel portion 11 on the other surface of the main panel portion 11. The reader / writer 20 is accommodated in the accommodation portion 14 so that it can be inserted and removed. 0 has a rectangular, roughly thick plate-like outer shape, and a predetermined surface that becomes the reading surface 25 is When the RF tag 52 is brought into close proximity, the information recorded thereon can be read and written. The details will be described later.

[0106] The storage section 14 is provided at the predetermined position on the other surface of the main panel section 11. The two opposite side surfaces of the reader / writer 20 are attached at a predetermined interval in the side direction. The first member 14a and the second member 14b are in contact with each other, and the main panel portion at the predetermined position 11 and is attached to the other side of the reader / writer 20. and a third member 14c.

[0107] When the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the accommodation portion 14 is The center of the support base 10 is located in the vertical direction in the portion other than the storage portion, specifically, in the main panel portion 11. However, this is not limited to this, and the position of the storage section 1 may be substantially the same as the center position of the storage section 1. The vertical center of the sensor 4 can be positioned below the center position. In this case, when the reader / writer 20, which is relatively heavy, is housed in the information recording medium stand 1, is positioned as low as possible to lower the center of gravity of the entire stand, This allows the stand 1 to be stable and less likely to fall over.

[0108] The first member 14a, the second member 14b, and the third member 14c that form the storage section 14 are a main panel section. 11, the first member 14a and the second member 14b are made of plastic such as acrylic resin. The members 14b are arranged so that their longitudinal directions are parallel to the long sides of the main panel portion 11. The area surrounded by the first member 14a, the second member 14b, and the third member 14c 2, the reader / writer 20 is in a state where its reading surface 25 is almost in contact with the other surface of the main panel portion 11. The housing portion 14 is made up of a first member 14a, a second member 14b and a third member 14c. The reader / writer 20 is attached to the substrate 14c so that its longitudinal direction coincides with the long side direction of the main panel portion 11. The main panel 11 can be inserted and removed in the same direction as the long side of the main panel 11. When the reader / writer 20 is installed on the surface 90, the reader / writer 20 is oriented horizontally, which is different from the insertion and removal direction of the document 50. The reader / writer is inserted and removed in the same lateral direction relative to the accommodation section 14. In this way, the accommodation section allows the direction in which the reader / writer is removed from or attached to the support base to be different from the direction in which the information recording medium is supported or released from the supported state relative to the main panel section of the support base, and the operations relating to attaching and detaching the reader / writer and the operations relating to supporting the information recording medium can be made essentially different, making it less likely that erroneous operations will occur, such as attempting to attach the reader / writer to one side of the main panel section or attempting to support the information recording medium on a side other than the one side of the main panel section, and allowing the information recording medium and the reader / writer to be handled appropriately.

[0109] However, the entrance and exit of the reader / writer in the housing section 14 is on one of the short sides of the main panel section 11. The distance of the third member 14c from one short side of the main panel portion 11 is The longitudinal dimension of the reader / writer 20 is smaller than that of the reader / writer 20, so that the reader / writer 20 can be accommodated. In this state, a predetermined range portion of the reader / writer 20 near one short side (the right side when viewed from the front, the left side when viewed from the back) protrudes longitudinally from the first member 14a and the second member 14b, and also protrudes from the main panel unit 11. Specifically, in a state in which the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the reader / writer 20 accommodated in the accommodation unit 14 located to the right when viewed from the front side of the main panel unit 11 has a predetermined range portion near one short side protrude laterally from one short side of the main panel unit 11, which is the right side when viewed from the front side of the main panel unit 11.

[0110] The first member 14a of the accommodation portion 14 is configured to be a read / write element when the reader / writer 20 is accommodated in the accommodation portion 14. A part of the end surface on one long side of the reader / writer 20 and a part of the end surface on the other short side of the reader / writer 20 The first member 14a is disposed so as to overlap a part of the main panel portion 11. When viewed from the side, it has a long, narrow rectangular portion and an arc-shaped portion extending from this rectangular portion to the right. The structure may further include a portion extending downward in a straight line from the portion.

[0111] In addition, the second member 14b is configured to be connected to the other side of the reader / writer 20 when the reader / writer 20 is housed therein. The long side end surface of the reader / writer 20 is arranged so as to overlap with a part of the other short side end surface of the reader / writer 20. When viewed from the rear side of the main panel portion 11, for example, the second member 14b has a thin A long rectangular part, an arc-shaped part extending from this rectangular part to the right, and then further upward from there. The linearly extending portion may be configured to include a portion extending linearly. In addition, the third member 14c is configured to be a part of the reader / writer 20 when the reader / writer 20 is housed therein. It is disposed so as to abut against a predetermined location on the surface opposite to the reading surface 25, closer to the other short side. .

[0112] In this way, the first member 14a, the second member 14b, and the third member 14c that form the storage portion 14 are The contacts come into contact with the respective surfaces of the reader / writer 20 in the housed state and are fitted into a part of the reader / writer 20. As a result, the reader / writer 20 is restricted to a state in which it cannot be moved in any direction other than the direction in which it is inserted or removed. .

[0113] A gap is formed between the first member 14a, the second member 14b, and the third member 14c. By doing so, when the reader / writer 20 is accommodated in the accommodation portion 14, the reader The cable 22 connected to the lighter 20 is passed through the gap from inside the storage section 14 to the outside of the storage section 14. It can be easily pulled out to the outside, and even when the cable 22 is directly connected to the reader / writer 20 The reader / writer 20 can be accommodated in the accommodation portion 14 without any problems, and the cable 22 can be connected to the outside of the accommodation portion 14. This allows for easy handling for connections etc.

[0114] In the accommodation section 14, when the reader / writer 20 is accommodated, the reading surface 25 of the reader / writer 20 The third member 14c is removably fitted into a recess provided in a part of the surface opposite to the A third member 14c may be provided. In this case, the reader / writer 20 is accommodated in the accommodation portion. When the reader / writer 20 reaches the innermost part of the accommodation portion 14, The three members 14c are recessed portions provided on the surface opposite to the reading surface 25 of the reader / writer 20. As a result, the reader / writer 2 that has reached the deepest part of the accommodation portion 14 is fitted into the accommodation portion 14. When attempting to remove the third member 14c from the housing 14, resistance is encountered due to the engagement of the third member 14c. As a result, the reader / writer 20 cannot be easily removed from the housing portion 14. This prevents the reader / writer 20 from accidentally falling off from the housing portion 14 of the holder 11.

[0115] The storage section 14 is made up of three parts: a first member 14a, a second member 14b, and a third member 14c. However, the reader / writer 20 may be attached to the main panel. The reader / writer 2 can be accommodated in the housing 11 so that it is not permitted to move in or out of the housing 11. When inserting or removing the 0 into the storage section, a certain resistance force is applied, and once the 0 is stored in the storage section, The storage portion can be formed so that the electric / writer 20 does not easily come off from the storage portion. If there is, the housing part is formed of fewer than three members, i.e., one or two members. This simplifies the structure of the housing and reduces costs. In order to more securely accommodate the electric / writer, the accommodating portion may be made up of more than three members.

[0116] In addition, the first member 14a and the second member 14b of the storage section 14 are aligned with the long sides of the main panel section 11. Although the configuration is such that each is formed as a continuous member in a parallel direction, it is not limited to this. At least one of the first member 14a and the second member 14b is a member in which a plurality of members are arranged intermittently. The same applies to the third member 14c.

[0117] The reader / writer 20 reads and writes information recorded in the RF tag 52. The RF tag 5 of the document 50 supported by the support base 10 can be written without contact. 2.

[0118] The reader / writer 20 is attached to the side of the main panel 11 of the support stand 10 that supports the document 50. The surface of the storage section 14 on the opposite side of the main panel section 11 is the reading surface 25. The reader / writer 20 is accommodated in the direction facing the arrow 11 so as to be removable. , the document 5 is disposed in a stationary state on the support base 10 and supported by the support base 10. 0, the RF tag 52 is placed at the position where the main panel 11 is placed. This is a mechanism that allows communication with the RF tag 52 of the document 50 through the cable 11 without any problems. do.

[0119] In addition, the reader / writer 20 is not supported by the support base 10, and instead, the main When the IC card 60 is supported by the card support portion 11i of the panel portion 11, It is possible to communicate with the IC card 60 through the unit 11 and read and write information. It is considered to be Noh.

[0120] This is because the IC card 60 supported by the card support portion 11i is The RF tag 52 of the document 50 in the supported state overlaps with the reader / writer 20. This is because the device is located within the communication range of the

[0121] Information recorded in the RF tag 52 or IC card 60 in this reader / writer 20 Regarding the mechanism for reading and writing information without contact, IC cards and RF It communicates wirelessly with the tag and supplies power, and stores information in the IC chips installed in the tag. Similar to a publicly known reader / writer that uses short-distance wireless communication technology to read and write data. and detailed description will be omitted.

[0122] The reader / writer 20 is connected to an information processing device such as a computer (not shown). , information read from the RF tag 52 or IC card 60 of the document 50, or information read from the RF tag 52 or IC card 60 The information to be written to the C card 60 can be exchanged with the information processing device in the same manner as a known reader. This is similar to the writer, and a detailed description will be omitted.

[0123] The reader / writer 20 has a predetermined area near one of its short sides, which indicates the state of the reader / writer 20. A display unit 21 is provided to show the state. The display unit 21 has a power lamp 21a disposed near one of the long sides of the reader / writer 20. A communication status confirmation lamp 21b is disposed near the other long side of the reader / writer 20. This is a configuration in which

The paper 50 is exposed so as to be visible at a position that does not overlap with the paper 50 being supported by the paper supporter. In this way, the display unit 21 is mounted on the mounting surface 90 of the support base 10. The display unit 21 of the reader / writer 20 is configured to protrude laterally and appear on the side of the support base 10 so as to be always visible. As described above, when the IC card 60 is housed in the card support portion 11i (recessed portion 11k), one end (the right side as viewed from the front) of the IC card 60 protrudes from the main panel portion 11, but when the reader / writer 20 is housed in the housing portion 14 and the IC card 60 is housed in the card support portion 11i (recessed portion 11k), one end (the right side as viewed from the front) of the reader / writer 20 protrudes beyond one end (the right side as viewed from the front) of the IC card 60. In this case, the display unit 21 of the reader / writer 20 is configured to be located on the outer periphery of the protruding portion of the IC card 60 from the main panel portion 11 (an area avoiding the protruding portion).

[0125] In place of the display unit 21 or in addition to the display unit 21, another notification means other than the display unit may be used. For example, when reading is completed or when the IC card 60 or the document 50 is removed, Output of a sound such as a buzzer to indicate that the RF tag 52 has moved out of the communication range of the reader / writer 20 A section may be provided.

[0126] The reader / writer 20 reads information from the RF tag 52 or the IC card 60 and 52 or a cable 2 for connecting to an information processing device that processes information to be written to the IC card 60 The cable 22 is connected to one of the short sides of the reader / writer 20 where the display unit 21 is located. is directly connected to the end of the other short side on the opposite side and is electrically connected thereto.

[0127] When the reader / writer 20 is installed on the installation surface 90 of the support base 10, the cable 22 of the reader / writer 20 is The lower side of the leg 13, specifically, the area surrounded by the leg 13, the lower part of the main panel 11, and the installation surface 90 By passing the cable 22 through the space, it is possible to easily prevent the cable 22 from moving accidentally. It is possible.

[0128] The reader / writer 20, like a known reader / writer, receives data from a connected information processing device. However, it is not limited to this and may be powered by a built-in battery or a direct current. The power source is a commercial power source connected via a power supply or AC adapter. It doesn't matter as a configuration.

[0129] The storage section 17 is one of the additional functional sections of the main panel section 11. Among these, the position of the document 50 when the document 50 is supported on the support base 10, and the reader / writer It is installed in a predetermined location other than the location of the storage compartment 20 so that it can store predetermined items. .

[0130] In detail, the storage section 17 is a large storage section located near the right side end of the main panel section 11 when viewed from the rear. a storage section 17a, a middle storage section 17b located at the upper center in a rear view of the main panel section 11, and a storage section 17b located at the upper center in a rear view of the main panel section 11. The small storage section 17c is located at the bottom center of the main panel section 11 when viewed from the rear, and the small storage section 17c is located at the bottom center of the main panel section 11 when viewed from the rear. The structure is provided with a hook portion 18 protruding from the side end portion of the side.

[0131] The large storage section 17a is a bottom plate that is disposed so as to protrude from the other surface of the main panel section 11. and two frame-shaped surrounding portions 17e, 17f attached to the other surface of the main panel portion 11. f, which is an area above the bottom plate portion and is connected to a part of the main panel portion 11 and the surrounding portion 17e, The area enclosed by 17f is where the object to be stored, such as a long, thin pen, is stored. It is configured as a storage space.

[0132] The bottom plate of the large storage section 17a is located at the right side end of the leg section 13 when viewed from behind the main panel section 11. The bottom plate part of the legs 13 acts as a base plate for storing items. The legs 13 can be supported from below to maintain the storage space. A bottom plate portion is provided separately from the legs 13 on the top or side of the storage compartment, and the storage object is placed on the bottom plate portion. It can also be configured to be supported from the outside.

[0133] The main panel 11 is provided with an opening 17j, which is a cutout leading to the storage space of the large storage section 17a from one side thereof, and two windows 17k and 17l, which are through holes, for the large storage section 17a.

[0134] The opening 17j is a notch that connects from one surface of the main panel 11 to the storage space at the position of the surrounding portion 17e of the large storage portion 17a. The window 17k is a through-hole that connects from one surface of the main panel 11 to the storage space at the position of the surrounding portion 17f of the large storage portion 17a. The window 17l is a through-hole that connects from one surface of the main panel 11 to the storage space at the position of the leg 13 that also serves as the bottom plate of the large storage portion 17a.

[0135] In addition, in the main panel portion 11, above the lowest window portion 17l and in the large storage portion 17a A portion of the back surface facing the storage space is provided with a visor-like portion 17h that protrudes toward the storage space. The eaves portion 17h is intended to prevent the stored items from falling out. h further has a concave-convex portion 17i formed at its tip end, in which concaves and convexes are alternately arranged side by side. This uneven portion 17i is formed so that when the object to be stored is a writing implement (stationery) such as a long and thin pen, This corresponds to the case where a part of the stored object is positioned in the recess of the uneven portion 17i. This partially restricts the movement of the stored items and prevents them from shifting sideways. The eave-shaped portion 17h may be provided on the upper or lower side of the window portion 17k facing the storage space of the large storage portion 17a, or on the lower side of the opening portion 17j. The uneven portion 17i may not be formed on the eave-shaped portion 17h, but may be formed directly on the edge of the opening portion 17j or the edges of the window portions 17k and 17l. The uneven portion 17i may also be formed on the surrounding portions 17e and 17f.

[0136] The large storage section 17a is located near the right side end of the main panel section 11 in a rear view, so that the left The reader / writer 20 is positioned far enough away from the reader / writer 20 located near the side edge of the side. When an object containing metal is stored in the storage compartment near the light source 20, First, metal has a negative effect on communication between the reader / writer 20 and the RF tag 52 or IC card 60. However, since the large storage section 17a is separated from the reader / writer 20, Therefore, even if the object to be stored in the large storage section 17a contains metal, the reader / writer 2 10 and does not affect the reading and writing of information from / to RF tag 52 or IC card 60. Furthermore, reader / writer 20 and its cable 22 can be positioned away from large storage section 17a, and when a tapered object such as a pen is stored in the storage space of large storage section 17a, it is possible to prevent reader / writer 20 and cable 22 from being scratched or damaged by the tip of the object (such as a pen).

[0137] The middle storage section 17b is a frame attached to the upper center of the other surface of the main panel section 11. a space surrounded by a part of the main panel portion 11 and the surrounding portion 17g; The area from the top to the bottom is a storage area that can accommodate items such as bundled cables. This is a configuration that is intended as a space for use.

[0138] The main panel 11 has a front surface of the middle storage section 17b. The window portion 17m is a through hole that leads to the storage space. 1, a through hole leading to the storage space at the position of the surrounding portion 17g of the middle storage portion 17b. It is said to be a hole.

[0139] The opening 17j provided in the main panel portion 11 allows the entrance (guide opening) for storing items in the storage space of the large storage portion 17a to be confirmed and seen through the opening from the front side of the main panel portion 11. Furthermore, the opening 17j and window portions 17k, 17l, and 17m provided in the main panel portion 11 allow the presence of the large storage portion 17a and the medium storage portion 17b to be recognized through these openings and windows from the front side of the main panel portion 11, and also allow the presence or absence of items to be stored in each storage space of the large storage portion 17a and the medium storage portion 17b and the state of the stored items to be confirmed and seen. Here, if the horizontal dimension of the information recording medium supported on one surface of main panel 11 is smaller than the horizontal dimension of main panel 11 (the distance between one side and the other side of main panel 11) (for example, if the horizontal dimension of the information recording medium is ⅔ or less of the horizontal dimension of main panel 11), supporting the information recording medium closer to one side of the main panel can expose an opening or window leading to the storage space of the storage section. In particular, supporting the information recording medium on the right side of the main panel when viewed from the front exposes the opening or window leading to the storage space of the large storage section, allowing for easy confirmation and visual inspection of the stored items. Naturally, communication with the reader / writer can also be performed without any problems. Furthermore, if the horizontal dimension of the information recording medium is significantly smaller than the horizontal dimension of main panel unit 11 (for example, if the horizontal dimension of the information recording medium is equal to or less than half the horizontal dimension of main panel unit 11), the horizontal dimension of the front panel unit (the distance between one side and the other side of front panel unit 12) may be reduced. In this case, vertical groove 11e on one end side (the left side as viewed from the front) may be disposed closer to the horizontal center of main panel unit 11, more specifically, in a region to the right of the notch that forms the opening or the through-hole that forms the window as viewed from the front of the support base, and to the left of the left edge of recessed portion 11k of card support unit 11i, so that when a front panel unit having the same distance and horizontal dimension between this vertical groove and the other vertical groove is disposed on the main panel unit, this front panel unit does not overlap with the opening or the window.

[0140] The window sections 17k, 17l, 17m and the eave-shaped section 17h, which are provided as through holes in the main panel section 11, are positioned so that when the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, neither the window sections nor the eave-shaped section can be seen from above the storage spaces (large storage section 17a, medium storage section 17b).In other words, when viewed from above in the installed state, the window sections and the eave-shaped section cannot be seen from the entrance of the storage space in a plan view, and when an item to be stored is inserted into the storage space of each storage section from the entrance of the storage space, the item to be stored is prevented from accidentally reaching the front side of the main panel section 11 through the window section.

[0141] The small storage section 17c is attached to the lower center of the other surface of the main panel section 11. The inner area of ​​the cylindrical body is used to store an object, such as a connector at the end of a cable. It is configured as a storage space that can accommodate items such as:

[0142] The hook portion 18 protrudes from two positions on the right side edge of the main panel portion 11 when viewed from the rear. The upper hook-shaped member 18a has an upwardly facing end. Hang the items to be stored, such as keys with a ring-shaped key chain or rubber bands, on a. This hook portion 18 has a hook-shaped member 18a on the upper side, and the object to be stored is hung on the hook-shaped member 18a. In addition to the storage state, the upper and lower hook-shaped members 18 integral with the side end portions of the main panel portion 11 can be The horizontal parts of a and 18b are used to store long, flexible items such as cables. or large circular objects such as large diameter rubber bands are wrapped around the By passing the ends of the shaped members 18a and 18b through the respective members and hanging them, it is possible to obtain such a storage state for the stored items. Furthermore, the cables may be passed through the surrounding portions 17e and 17f of the large storage portion 17a, the surrounding portion 17g of the middle storage portion 17b, and the hook portion 18 for storage.

[0143] In addition, among the legs 13, the one located near the left side end portion when viewed from the back of the main panel portion 11 As part of the storage area 17, cables, ferrite cores, and stationery (erasers, etc.) can be stored. It should be noted that the legs 13 can also be used for storage. Since the reader / writer 20 is present in the container 14, when the container 14 is used as a storage unit, the reader / writer In order to prevent the reading and writing of information in the data storage device 20 from being affected, the contents of the data storage device 20 must not contain any conductive material such as metal. It is preferable to store items that cannot be stored in the drawer, such as erasers.

[0144] In this way, the storage section 17 is provided in the main panel section 11, and the document 50 is read by the reader / writer 20 using the RF tag. In addition to supporting the storage unit 17 in a state where reading and writing can be performed, By storing various objects in the storage section 17, these objects can be stored in the support base 1. 90, and the support base 10 is not scattered on the installation surface 90, making it easy to handle. In the case of stand 10 (stand 1), the stored items stored in storage section 17 act as a weight, making it difficult for support base 10 to move, and the initial installation state of support base 10 can be maintained. Also, by storing the stored items in storage section 17 (particularly large storage section 17a) (storing the stored items so that one end of the stored item abuts the bottom plate portion and the other end leans against the surrounding portion), the center of gravity of support base 10 (stand 1) is positioned lower and rearward, which can accommodate, for example, the elastic restoring force of a reader / writer cable and prevent support base 10 (stand 1) from tipping forward. Also, by storing the stored items in storage section 17 (particularly large storage section 17a), the left-right balance of support base 10 (stand 1) is maintained when the reader / writer is stored in the storage section, and this can eliminate a state in which the support base 10 (stand 1) is biased toward the side where the reader / writer is located when the support base 10 is hung on a wall, for example.

[0145] Next, the usage state of the information recording medium stand according to this embodiment will be described. The information recording medium stand 1 is placed on a surface 90 such as a desk top. The reader / writer 20 is accommodated in the accommodation portion 14 of the support base 10. The cable 22 of the reader / writer 20 is connected to an information processing device, and the reader / writer 20 is required for operation. It is assumed that the necessary power is being supplied and the power lamp 21a is lit.

[0146] When the information recording medium stand 1 is placed on the installation surface 90, the support base 10 The main panel 11 and the legs 13 come into contact with the installation surface 90, so that the support base 10 does not easily tip over. It is in an independent state.

[0147] In the gap 19 between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11 of the support base 10, A document 50 to be read or written is inserted through the open portion at the top of this gap 19 (see FIG. 12). At this time, the document 50 inserted into the gap 19 is guided by the protrusion 12d of the front panel portion 12. The document 50 is then brought into a state of being leaned against the main panel portion 11, and the bottom end of the document 50 is brought into contact with the bottom plate portion of the main panel portion 11. It will not get in between the tip of 11a and the front panel portion 12.

[0148] When the document 50 is placed in the gap 19, support is provided along the main panel portion 11 of the document 50. In addition, the document 50 is restrained by the front panel portion 12, the side plate 12b, and the bottom plate portion 11a. The device is then held in place and does not move easily except when the user moves it up or down by removing it. .

[0149] In this state where the document 50 is supported, the RF tag 52 arranged on the document 50 is received by the support base 10. The reader / writer 20 is located in front of the reader / writer 20 housed in the housing 14. The document 50 can communicate with the RF tag 52 through the main panel 11. In this state, the user can see the contents written on the surface of the document 50 through the transparent front panel portion 12. It has become a Noh play.

[0150] The reader / writer 20 is appropriately placed on the support base 10 in advance. If the device is already operable when the document 50 is in the supported state, inserting the document 50 into the gap 19 will enable communication with the RF tag 52 within the communication range without any problems, and will indicate that normal communication with the RF tag 52 is possible, for example, by lighting up the communication status confirmation lamp 21b on the display unit 21.

[0151] From the display on the display unit 21, it is possible to know that the reader / writer 20 is in a normal operable state. After confirming this, the user follows the guidance to operate the information processing device, and The reader / writer 20 communicates with the RF tag 52 to read and write information. Once the data writer 20 has established communication with the RF tag 52, any operation by the user is immediately The reader / writer 20 automatically communicates with the RF tag 52 and reads the information without requiring any operation. It is also possible to perform writing and reading.

[0152] In the case of reading, the data of the information read by the reader / writer 20 is transmitted from the reader / writer 20. The data is then sent to an information processing device where it is subjected to predetermined processing. In addition, when writing, the data is adjusted and processed for writing in advance by an information processing device. The data of the information to be read is sent to the reader / writer 20, and the reader / writer 20 reads the RF tag. Information is written to 52. During the execution of such reading and writing, the communication of the display unit 21 in the reader / writer 20 The status confirmation lamp 21b lights up or flashes, allowing the user to recognize that the operation has been performed.

[0153] The completion of reading or writing in the reader / writer 20 is indicated by a communication status message on the display unit 21. The status confirmation lamp 21b is turned on or blinking to indicate the execution of reading or writing. or the communication status confirmation lamp 21b is switched to a different lighting or flashing state. or by a notification means other than the display unit, for example, a sound output unit such as a buzzer to notify completion. In addition, the display means of the information processing device can output a sound indicating the The completion of reading or writing in the reader / writer 20 is notified to the user by a status display or the like. It may be possible to notify the user.

[0154] The user can read the information displayed on the display unit 21 of the reader / writer 20 or the information displayed on the information processing device. From the above, it is possible to confirm the completion of writing to the RF tag 52 by the reader / writer 20, and to check the document 5 Utilization of information that can be directly seen from the camera and information read by the reader / writer 20, for example, The information recorded on the RF tag 52 read by the reader / writer 20 and the information recorded on the surface of the document 50 are The information is checked and verified by visually checking the display output on the display means of the information processing device, or by checking the information Once the task is completed using techniques such as listening to the speech output of the processing device, The document 50 supported by the holder 10 is inserted into the gap 1 between the front panel 12 and the main panel 11. Remove from 9 and collect.

[0155] The insertion of document 50 into gap 19 and the removal of document 50 from gap 19 can be carried out smoothly because the user can securely hold document 50 between their fingers through cutout portion 11g of main panel portion 11. When inserting document 50, document 50 can be guided with the fingers up to just before gap 19, and when removing document 50, document 50 can be easily removed with the fingers. In addition, there is no need to move support base 10 to insert or remove document 50.

[0156] There are multiple similar documents 50 that require operations including reading and writing information using the reader / writer 20. In this case, the above procedure is repeated while changing the document 50 supported by the support stand 10. do.

[0157] Next, as another use state, when reading and writing information from and to the IC card 60, I will explain. When reading and writing information from and to the IC card 60, the front surface of the support base 10 The document 50 (RF tag 52) is present in the gap 19 between the panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11. If the document 50 is in the open position, the document 50 is removed from the open portion at the top of the gap 19. Let's assume that there is no 50.

[0158] With no document 50 in the gap 19, the IC card 60 to be read or written is inserted into the main panel portion 11. The card is inserted into the card support portion 11i on the front side (see FIG. 20). 1i, an IC card is inserted into the expanded portion provided on one short side of the main panel portion 11. The long side of the IC card 60 is parallel to the long side of the main panel portion 11. While doing so, the IC card 60 is inserted into the insertion slot formed between the main panel portion 11 and the front panel portion 12. The IC card 60 is inserted from the short side of the card holder 11i until the protrusion 11j of the card holder 11i is in the front of the IC card 60. The IC card 60 is inserted in a straight line so that it is positioned on the front side of the card support portion 11i. The end of the IC card 60 comes into contact with the inner end of the card holder 11i, and the IC card 60 is properly inserted into the card holder 11i. When the IC card 60 is in the supported state, the IC card 60 is accommodated in the accommodation portion 14 of the support base 10. The reader / writer 20 is positioned on the front side of the main panel 11 and the IC Communication with the card 60 becomes possible.

[0159] The reader / writer 20 may be already in an operable state when the IC card 60 is supported. In this case, communication with the IC card 60 within the communication range is established without any problems, and for example, The communication status confirmation lamp 21b of the unit 21 is turned on to confirm that communication with the IC card 60 is normal. Indicates that it is possible.

[0160] From the display on the display unit 21, it is possible to know that the reader / writer 20 is in a normal operable state. After confirming this, the user follows the guidance to operate the information processing device, and The reader / writer 20 communicates with the IC card 60 to read and write information. As soon as the reader / writer 20 establishes communication with the IC card 60, any action by the user The reader / writer 20 automatically communicates with the IC card 60 and transmits the information without requiring any operation. The information may be read and written.

[0161] In the case of reading, the data of the information read from the IC card 60 by the reader / writer 20 is The data is sent from the reader / writer 20 to an information processing device where it is subjected to predetermined processing. In addition, when writing, the data is adjusted and processed for writing in advance by an information processing device. The data of the information to be read is sent to the reader / writer 20, and the reader / writer 20 reads the data from the IC card. The information is written to the memory card 60.

[0162] The user can read the information displayed on the display unit 21 of the reader / writer 20 or the information displayed on the information processing device. The reader / writer 20 can then confirm the completion of writing to the IC card 60, and the After the information read by the reader / writer 20 has been utilized, for example, by comparing and confirming the information recorded on the IC card 60 read by the reader / writer 20 with the information written on the surface of the IC card 60, by visually checking the information displayed by the display means of the information processing device, or by listening to and confirming the information output by the voice reading means of the information processing device, the IC card 60 supported by the support base 10 is removed from the card support portion 11i of the main panel portion 11 and collected.

[0163] There are multiple similar IC cards 60 that require the reader / writer 20 to read and write information. In this case, the IC card 60 supported by the card support portion 11i is replaced and the above procedure is repeated. This will be done.

[0164] In addition, as another use state, the case where an object is stored in the storage section 17 will be explained. do. The storage section 17 includes a large storage section 17a, a medium storage section 17b, a small storage section 17c, and a hook section 1 8, the user can use the support stand 10 by storing the corresponding items. Cut.

[0165] For example, the large storage section 17a can store writing implements (stationery) such as pens, brushes (cleaning tools), etc. ) and screwdrivers (tools) can be inserted from above and stored. The large storage section 17a is located near the side edge of the main panel section 11 and is By separating them, even if an object containing metal is stored, the RF Reading and writing of information from and to the tag 52 and the IC card 60 is not affected.

[0166] In addition, the middle storage section 17b can store bundled cables and other items in a storage space. When you insert an item, it will not easily fall out because it will remain inside the surrounding part 17g even if it tries to expand. It can be stored in a convenient place.

[0167] The small storage section 17c also contains a connector at the end of a cable 22 connected to the reader / writer 20. It can be inserted and stored, and can easily move such stored items.

[0194] In each of the drawings, the information recording medium stand 2 according to this embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment. Similarly, the present invention is provided with a support base 10 and a reader / writer 20, but the difference is that the support base 1 0, and has a configuration in which a main panel part 11 with a partially modified structure including the contents of the additional function part is adopted. This is what is done.

[0195] The information recording medium to be supported by the information recording medium stand 2 according to this embodiment is a recording medium. The class 50 is a vehicle inspection certificate, similar to the first embodiment, and is a mount as a sheet body. 51 and an RF tag 52 that records information are integrally disposed, and detailed explanations are omitted. do.

[0196] The support base 10 includes a main panel portion 11 and a front panel portion 12, as in the first embodiment. 2, legs 13, and storage section 14, but the difference is that it does not have a storage section. In addition, parts of the main panel 11, the legs 13, and the storage section 14 are replaced with parts of a different structure. It has a configuration that includes the above.

[0197] The support base 10 is located near the leg portion 13 of the main panel portion 11, as in the first embodiment. The end of the leg 13 and the end of the leg 13 farther from the main panel 11 are brought into contact with the installation surface 90. In this installed state, the document 50 is placed between the front panel portion 12 and the main panel portion 11. The support can be restrained between the two.

[0198] The main panel 11 is made of a plastic with a color tone that does not transmit much light, as in the first embodiment. The support base 10 is a plate-like body made of plastic and having a substantially rectangular shape. The main panel portion 11 is held in a position with the long side facing horizontally. As in the previous embodiment, the document 50 can be supported from the rear side, and a plurality of additional functional parts are provided. The structure has multiple functions.

[0199] However, the main panel portion 11 is different from the first embodiment in that it is accommodated on the other side. There is no storage section provided, and no window section or eaves section related to the storage section are provided. The structure of the storage section 14 is also different from that of the first embodiment, and therefore, the main panel section 11 The arrangement of these parts and their surrounding shapes will also be partially different from those in the first embodiment. .

[0200] In order to tiltably dispose the front panel portion 12 on one side of the main panel portion 11, For this purpose, the support shaft 11c, the movement restricting portion 11d, the vertical groove portion 11e, and the engagement hole portion 11f are The document holder 11 includes a bottom plate 11a, an opening 11b, and a paper holder 50 for supporting the document 50 on one side. The configuration of the chamfered corners and the like is the same as that of the first embodiment. Detailed explanations will be omitted.

[0201] In addition, when the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the main panel portion 11 As in the first embodiment, a notch 1 is provided at the center of the upper part as viewed from the front side. However, the notch 11g has a different arc-shaped (semicircular) notch shape from that of the first embodiment. However, the only difference is the shape, and the function provided by this notch 11g is the same as that of the first embodiment, so detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[0202] Furthermore, the display section 11h formed on the upper part of one surface of the main panel section 11 is also This is the same as the first embodiment, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[0203] In addition, the main panel 11 has an IC as one of the additional function units, similar to the first embodiment. A card support portion 11m for supporting the card 60 is provided, but the position and structure of the card support portion 11m are different. Therefore, the card support portion 11m will be described in detail.

[0204] The card support portion 11m is located on one side of the main panel portion 11. A cutout portion in which a predetermined area adjacent to the side is cut out in accordance with the size of the IC card 60 (See FIGS. 30, 31, and 32.) The notched portion forming the card support portion 11m is The IC card 60 accommodated therein is a document holder 10 supporting the document 50. The RF tag 52 of the class 50 is provided so as to overlap the RF tag 52 .

[0205] As a result, the card support portion 11m supports the IC card 60 in a manner that allows the information in the reader / writer 20 to be read. Supports reading and writing of information to this IC card 60. can.

[0206] The card is supported by this card support portion 11m and is a target for reading and writing information by the reader / writer 20. The IC card 60 is, for example, an IC card type driver's license or a personal number card (My Number). This corresponds to "ID-1" in the card standard ISO / IEC7810, such as the "ID-1" bar card.

[0207] The card support portion 11m has step portions 11n on the rear side at the upper and lower edges of the notch portion. The step portion 11n is a step that is generated from the edge portion toward the notch portion. These step portions 1 are provided continuously in a direction parallel to the long side of the main panel portion 11. By fitting into the card support portion 11m, the IC card 60 is accommodated in the card support portion 11m. The card is restrained from coming off the front side of the notch that forms the card support portion 11m. The reader / writer 20 is located on the rear side of the card support portion 11m. The IC card 60 is held by the reader / writer 20 so as not to come off from the card support portion 11m toward its rear side. is bound by

[0208] The movement of the card support portion 11m is restricted by the step portion 11n. The IC card 60 is inserted into the main panel 11 with its longitudinal direction aligned with the long side of the main panel 11. The IC card 60 can be inserted and removed in the same direction as the long side of the card holder 11. When the stand 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the card support portion 1 It will be inserted and removed horizontally per 1m.

[0209] The entrance of the card support portion 11m in the main panel portion 11 is located at one short end of the main panel portion 11. The card support portion 11m is located on one side of the main panel portion 11. The range of placement from the side is set smaller than the longitudinal dimension of the IC card 60. In the state where the IC card 60 is accommodated, the end of one of the short sides of the IC card 60 is supported by the card support portion 11. m, so that it protrudes from the main panel portion 11. When the main panel 11 is installed on the installation surface 90, the card 11 is positioned to the right as viewed from the front side. The IC card 60 accommodated in the card support portion 11m is partially exposed from the front side of the main panel portion 11. It protrudes laterally from one of the short sides of the main panel portion 11, which is the right side when viewed from the side.

[0210] In this way, even when the IC card 60 is housed, a part of the IC card 60 does not protrude from the main panel portion 11. The IC card 60 can be easily picked up with the fingers and inserted into the card support portion 11m. It is a mechanism that allows for easy insertion.

[0211] Furthermore, the entrance / exit portion of the card support portion 11m of the main panel portion 11 is To make it easier to insert and remove the 0, the closer to one short side of the main panel portion 11, the wider it becomes. It has an expanded shape.

[0212] This expanded shape portion extends from one short side of the main panel portion 11 to a position beyond the vertical groove portion 11e. Even if the IC card 60 is inserted in a slightly different position or in a different direction, the IC card 60 can be guided to the center of the card support part 11m and inserted into the card support part 11m without any problems. I try to do this.

[0213] The front panel portion 12 is made of a transparent or semi-transparent plastic, as in the first embodiment. The main panel 11 is formed of a rectangular plate-like body made of plastic, and is attached to one side of the main panel 11. The structure is such that a predetermined gap 19 is provided between the portion 11 and the substrate 10 .

[0214] However, the front panel portion 12 is different from the first embodiment in that the front side is curved. The lens part is omitted, and the IC card 6 is located on the right side when viewed from the front. The structure is such that a notch 12p for inserting and removing the 0 is provided. Other than this, the front panel portion 12 has the same configuration as that of the first embodiment. Therefore, detailed explanation will be omitted.

[0215] The front panel portion 12 has a front surface that does not face the main panel portion 11 and is convex forward. It is formed in a gently curved shape and does not have a protruding portion like the lens portion in the first embodiment. The structure is such that the surface is smooth.

[0216] When the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the front panel portion 12 is and a side plate 12b projecting from the end of the side toward the main panel portion. The cutout portion 12p is provided in the card support portion 1 of the main panel portion 11. The area covered from the front by the front panel part 12 is reduced, and the card is accommodated in the card support part 11m. The IC card 60 can be easily accessed from the front, and the card can be easily inserted into the card support portion 11m. The insert serves to facilitate handling of the IC card 60, such as a slip case.

[0217] The side plate 12b protruding from the end of the front panel portion 12 is formed at the main panel portion 12a except for the notched portion 12p. The end of the panel 11 facing the card support portion 11m is for inserting the IC card 6 into the card support portion 11m. A gap is provided between the card support portion 11m and the IC card 60 so that the insertion of the IC card 60 is not hindered. On the other hand, when the IC card 60 is supported by the card support portion 11m, The card support portion 11m is protruded by a predetermined amount so that no gap is generated between the card 60 and the side plate 12b. The end of the side plate 12b is formed as a protruding portion 12k (see FIGS. 30, 32, and 36). A gap between the protrusion 12k of the card support portion 11m and the reader / writer 20 on the rear side of the card support portion 11m. The opening formed as a result of this prevents the IC card 60 from being inserted into the card support portion 11m. The protrusion 12k serves as an insertion port for the IC card 60. The protrusion 12k is used to temporarily fasten the IC card 60 to the card support portion 11m. If the step portion 11n that can be stacked is not provided, the IC card inserted into the card support portion 11m The card 60 is held from the front and properly supported by the card support portion 11m. It also serves to hold the IC card 60 so that it does not move from its position along the guide rail.

[0218] The leg portion 13 is formed of plastic material, as in the first embodiment, and is arranged on the other side of the main panel portion 11 so as to protrude from the main panel portion 11, but the difference is that it has a configuration formed as a simple rod-shaped body.

[0219] The distal end of the leg 13 relative to the main panel 11, i.e., the end of the leg 13 abuts against the installation surface 90. As shown in Figures 26 to 30, a foot 13a is attached to the end portion. The portion 13a is made of a material such as rubber or elastomer that has a non-slip property on the installation surface 90. The support base 10 is made of a reinforced plastic, which prevents the legs 13 from shifting relative to the installation surface 90 and keeps the installation state of the support base 10 stable. If it is possible to ensure that the surface 90 is not slippery, the feet can be It is also possible to have a configuration in which the legs are in direct contact with the installation surface 90 without providing the legs.

[0220] The storage section 14 is provided on the other surface of the main panel section 11 in the same manner as in the first embodiment. The reader / writer 20 can be accommodated in the main panel 11. However, the difference is that the components surrounding the reader / writer 20 for storage are It has a configuration in which the shape and structure of the original are replaced with something that has been modified.

[0221] The storage section 14 extends from the upper end of the predetermined portion on the other surface of the main panel section 11 to the main panel section 1 an upper member 14f formed extending in the short side direction of the main panel portion 1; 1 and a lower member 14g formed to extend in the short side direction of the lower member 14a.

[0222] The reader / writer 20 is placed in the storage area surrounded by the upper member 14f and the lower member 14g. The reading surface 25 can be accommodated in a state where it is aligned with the other surface of the main panel portion 11. The length of the reader / writer 20 is determined by the upper and lower members 14f and 14g of the accommodation portion 14. The hand direction is aligned with the long side direction of the main panel portion 11, and the hand direction is aligned with the long side direction of the main panel portion 11. When the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the reader / writer 20 is The document 50 is inserted and removed in the same horizontal direction with respect to the horizontally oriented storage section 14, which is different from the insertion and removal direction of the document 50. This will be the case.

[0223] However, the entrance and exit of the reader / writer in the housing section 14 is on one of the short sides of the main panel section 11. The length of the accommodation area of ​​the accommodation section 14 is the longitudinal dimension of the reader / writer 20. By making the size smaller, the size of the reader / writer 20 can be reduced when the reader / writer 20 is housed. A predetermined area near one of the short sides of the main panel 11 will extend beyond the main panel 11. , when the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the main panel portion 11 is positioned to the right as viewed from the front side. The reader / writer 20 accommodated in the accommodation portion 14 is located in a predetermined area near one of the short sides. The part protrudes laterally from one of the short sides of the main panel portion 11, which is the right side when viewed from the front side of the main panel portion 11. put out.

[0224] When the support base 10 is installed on the installation surface 90, the accommodation portion 14 is The center of the support base 10 is located in the vertical direction in the portion other than the storage portion, specifically, in the main panel portion 11. However, this is not limited to this, and the position of the storage section 1 may be substantially the same as the center position of the storage section 1. The vertical center of the sensor 4 can be positioned below the center position. In this case, when the reader / writer 20, which is relatively heavy, is housed in the information recording medium stand 1, is positioned as low as possible to lower the center of gravity of the entire stand, This allows the stand 1 to be stable and less likely to fall over.

[0225] The upper member 14f and the lower member 14g that form the storage section 14 are made of the same plus material as the main panel section 11. It is a plastic component. The upper member 14f of the storage section 14 is, when viewed from the rear side of the main panel section 11, a portion extending from the upper end of the predetermined portion of the main panel portion 11 in the direction of the short side of the main panel portion 11; The part extending from the right end of the predetermined part to the long side direction of the main panel part 11 is connected and integrated. The upper member 14f is configured to be formed in a substantially L-shape. When the reader / writer 20 is housed in the storage compartment 14, a part of the end surface (top end surface) on one of the long sides of the reader / writer 20 and the reader / writer 14 are A part of the end surface (right end surface) on the other short side of the reader / writer 20 and the reading The chamfered surface 25 is overlapped with a part of the opposite surface, i.e., it is overlapped from three sides. It is arranged.

[0226] In addition, the lower member 14g is a part of the main panel 11 when viewed from the rear side of the main panel 11. The predetermined portion is configured to extend a predetermined length in the short side direction of the main panel portion 11 from the lower end of the predetermined portion. When the reader / writer 20 is housed, the end face (bottom end face) of the other long side of the reader / writer 20 and a part of the surface opposite to the reading surface 25 of the reader / writer 20. That is, they are arranged so as to overlap from two sides.

[0227] In this way, the upper member 14f and the lower member 14g that form the storage section 14 are in the stored state. By overlapping each surface of the reader / writer 20, the reader / writer 20 can be easily inserted and removed. They are restrained in a position where they cannot move in any other direction.

[0228] The storage section 14 is composed of an upper member 14f and a lower member 14g, and a gap is formed between the members. By doing so, when the reader / writer 20 is accommodated in the accommodation portion 14, The cable 22 connected to the housing 14 is passed through the gap so that it can be easily moved from inside the housing 14 to the outside. Even when the cable 22 is directly connected to the reader / writer 20, The connector 20 can be accommodated in the housing 14 without any problems, and the cable 22 can be connected outside the housing 14. This allows the product to be handled without any problems.

[0229] In the accommodation portion 14, the upper member 14f is located on the opposite side of the reading surface 25 of the reader / writer 20. Regarding some predetermined portions of the portions overlapping the side surfaces, for example, The distance between the other surfaces of the cable portion 11 is set to be approximately the same as the thickness of the main body of the reader / writer 20. By providing a spacer of a predetermined thickness or forming a convex portion that protrudes toward the reader / writer side, The area for accommodating the reader / writer 20 is limited, and the reader / writer 20 is attached to the main panel portion 11 in the accommodated state. It is also possible to configure the reader / writer 20 so that it can be restrained so as not to move in the forward and backward directions. A stable storage state can be achieved. The shape and number of members constituting the storage section 14 may be set according to the shape of the reader / writer. Also, a spacer, a protrusion, or the like may be provided at a predetermined position on the surface of the lower member 14g opposite the reading surface 25 of the reader / writer 20.

[0230] The reader / writer 20 reads the information recorded in the RF tag 52 in the same manner as in the first embodiment. The information can be read and written without contact, and is supported by a support base 10. The RF tag 52 is disposed on the support base 10 so as to face the RF tag 52 of the document 50 being held. The configuration of this reader / writer 20 is the same as that of the first embodiment, and therefore a description thereof will be omitted. Abbreviated.

[0231] The reader / writer 20 is housed in the housing 14 on the other side of the main panel 11 of the support base 10. On the other hand, the surface that becomes the reading surface 25 is cut off as the card support portion 11m of the main panel portion 11. The reader / writer 2 is housed in a removable manner with the reader / writer 2 facing the notch. 0 is disposed on the support base 10 in a stationary state, and is supported by the support base 10. The RF tag 52 is attached to the tag 50 at a position where the RF tag 52 is to be attached through the notch in the main panel 11. This is a mechanism by which the RF tag 52 on the document 50 overlaps with the RF tag 52 on the document 50 and can communicate with the RF tag 52 without any problems.

[0232] In addition, the reader / writer 20 is not supported by the support base 10, and instead, the main When the IC card 60 is supported by the card support portion 11m of the panel portion 11, the reading It communicates with the IC card 60 that is directly opposite the surface 25, and reads and stores information. It is possible to write the following.

[0271] The storage section 17 is provided on the other surface side and the side end of the main panel section 11, as in the first embodiment. The storage compartment is configured to be able to store a specified item. The storage section 17 is composed of a large storage section 17a, a small storage section 17c, and The hook portion 18 is provided, but the difference is that the inner storage portion is omitted and the hook portion 18 is provided separately. The structure is formed in the shape of

[0272] The storage section 17 has the same structure as the main storage section 11 except that the middle storage section has been omitted and the shape of the hook section 18 has been changed. The configurations of the storage section 17a and the small storage section 17c are the same as those of the first embodiment. Therefore, detailed explanations other than the differences will be omitted.

[0273] The hook portion 18 has a base portion 18c that protrudes from the side end of the main panel portion 11, and the base portion 18c At the end of the main panel portion 11, the protruding portion 18c is provided. The structure has a protruding piece 18d provided therebetween.

[0274] The usage state of the information recording medium stand according to this embodiment is almost the same as that of the first embodiment. Therefore, when storing an object in the hook portion 18 of the storage portion 17, I will only explain about this.

[0275] The hook portion 18 is attached to the upper protruding piece 18d by inserting a key with a ring-shaped key holder. You can hang a ring-shaped object such as a rubber band or a cloth around the base 18c to store it. It can be used to wrap long, flexible objects such as cables around the bag, or to wrap large circular objects such as large-diameter rubber bands around the bag. It can be stored by hanging something on it.

[0276] Compared to the first embodiment where the hook portion is configured with a hook-shaped member, the main panel portion The combination of the base 18c and the protruding piece 18d makes it easy to ensure strength by enlarging the connecting portion with the side end.
