Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a decorative object and a method for making the same, and to a decorative object that can be placed indoors, such as in the reception room, living room, and entrance hall of a home, as well as in lobbies and corridors of commercial facilities, hotel and inn accommodation facilities, and public facilities, and outdoors, such as in outdoor living rooms and gardens, to create an amenity space, and a method for making the same. It also relates to a decorative object that is ideal as a gift for celebrations such as housewarmings, store openings, births, and passing exams, and a method for making the same. [Background technology]

[0002] The objects given as gifts are somewhat limited, and there are very few that "create emotion" in the recipient. Most of the objects are only for enjoying the shape and texture of the object itself, and even if they are advertised as "combinable," most of them are merely suggestions for how to display multiple similar products together, rather than combining something within the product. In other words, most objects given as gifts are products that "you get tired of once you've finished making them." Therefore, while there are many products that are "finished once they are made," the inventors of this application have invented the decorative object described in this application as a product that can be customized by the gift recipient themselves, has a wide variety of optional parts, and allows the recipient to continue having fun creating original combinations based on their own ideas.

[0003] The decorative objects described in this application can be displayed anywhere, and they provide a sense of "human connection" through the joy of making them, the excitement afterwards, the communication between family members during the making process and while they are on display, and the gratitude to the gift giver as the decorative object never tires of the user. More specifically, we have invented a decorative piece that can be used by people of all ages and genders, as a "wooden interior" or "new gift" that creates a floral (flower / green) look that never withers, and that can be easily assembled and customized (originalized). The decorative body has a framework that allows anyone to easily reproduce a beautiful shape, and by making the sizes of the decorative members uniform, the user can attach the decorative member of his choice to a desired place without having to choose the attachment position of the decorative member. The decorative pieces make great gifts and can be easily redecorated by changing the color, shape, and material of the decorative components attached. As an example of decorative materials, we have created a flower shape. There are various types of flowers, including a traditional craft flower series based on plum and cherry blossoms, flowers that can be painted in a favorite color to create an original design, and flowers that can be customized according to the user's ideas.

[0004] Making the decorative members detachable makes it easy to replace the decorative members, allowing users to easily customize their own products. For example, by changing the decorative materials according to the season or event, you can decorate the space to suit your mood or the time of year. It can be used in a variety of ways depending on the user's ideas, and it is a decorative object that stimulates human sensibility and imagination, eliciting comments such as "I would like to use it like this." Also, from the perspective of the SDGs, by making the decorations prefabricated, there is no need to prepare large boxes that are typically used to send finished products when shipping the gifts, which also helps reduce resource waste.

[0005] Conventional technology, for example, Patent Document 1, involves cutting unevenness corresponding to the shading of the original image into the surface of a light-transmitting material plate, and then illuminating the original image with a light source placed on the back side to display a three-dimensional image with added contrast, in order to greatly improve the interior design feel, sense of hobby, appeal, and announcement power through a new expression that is three-dimensional, highly realistic, and has excellent design, originality, and uniqueness. Patent Document 2 discloses a system for constructing and reconstructing buildings and creations by utilizing and reusing basic and finishing materials in a wide range of fields, such as interior structures, exterior structures, temporary structures, and interior goods, regardless of the purpose, including partitions, stages, exterior walls, floors, ceilings, lighting fixtures, illuminated signs, desks, chairs, counters, simple stairs, furniture, display shelves, storage shelves, displays, and objects, and combining basic materials of a three-dimensional framework made of metal materials such as aluminum and steel into shapes suited to the purpose using bolts, etc., and attaching finishing materials such as wall materials, floor materials, ceiling materials, doors, shelves, and lighting fixtures of various materials and designs as necessary, to construct and reconstruct buildings and creations.

[0006] However, the technology disclosed in Patent Document 1 and the technology disclosed in Patent Document 2 are completely different from the concept of the present invention. In other words, they are not capable of producing an ornament that "has a decorative member detachably attached to the mounting portion of a support member, the decorative member is appropriately changeable, and frameworks of various shapes can be formed by changing the shape of the support member and the number and shape of the holding members, and that can be customized to the shape and decoration desired by the user," as in the present invention.

[0013] BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE DISCLOSURE Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the decorative article of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to Figs. (1) Overview of the embodiment The decorative body is composed of a support member, a holding member, a base, and a decorative member, the decorative member being attached to the mounting portion of the support member, the holding member holding the support portion of the support member, and the base fitting partly or entirely into the holding portion. The decorative members are detachably attached to the attachment portions of the support members. The decorative members used for decoration of the decorative body can be changed as appropriate, and frameworks of various shapes can be formed by changing the shape of the support members and the number and shapes of the holding members. Furthermore, by providing a defined framework and making the decorative members uniform in size, the decorative body allows users of all abilities to easily recreate beautiful shapes.

[0014] (2) Details of the embodiment FIG. 1 shows an example of a decorative body 1 to which the first embodiment is applied. The decorative body 1 is composed of a support member 12, a holding member 13, a base 14, and a decorative member 15. The decorative body 1 is configured to be approximately spherical, the decorative member 15 is shaped to resemble a flower, and the holding member 13 is likened to a trunk, so that the decorative body 1 as a whole is configured to resemble the shape of a tree. FIG. 2 shows an example of the configuration of the support member 12. As shown in FIG. The support member 12 is made up of an attachment portion 121 and a support portion 122. The attachment portion 121 and the support portion 122 are configured to be continuous, with one end side of the support member 12 being the attachment portion 121 and the other end side corresponding to this being the support portion 122.

[0015] The decorative member 15 is attached to the mounting portion 121 , and the end of the support portion 122 is held by the holding member 13 . The attachment portion 121 is formed into a flat surface. In FIG. 2, the attachment portion 121 is angled with respect to the support portion 122, but depending on the position where the support member 12 is attached, the attachment portion 121 and the support portion 122 may be configured to be on the same plane. Depending on the shape of the decorative body 1, the number of decorative members 15 attached to the attachment portion 121 is not limited to one, and multiple decorative members 15 may be attached to one attachment portion 121. For example, if the shape of the decorative body 1 is a cube, a support portion 122 having the same length as the vertical length of the top surface and a width allowing a hole 123 for inserting the holding member 13 to be provided at the center of the top surface of the cube can be provided on the top surface, and multiple attachment portions 121 can be provided on the left and right sides of the top surface from this center, extending to the left and right ends in the horizontal direction. In this case, multiple decorative members 15 can be attached to the attachment portion 121.

[0016] In the first embodiment, decorative member 15 is attached to mounting portion 121 by magnetic force. Mounting portion 121 is formed of a magnetic material, and decorative member 15 is equipped with a magnet. The method of attaching decorative member 15 to mounting portion 121 is not limited to magnetic force. For example, mounting portion 121 may be configured as a hook, and decorative member 15 may be hooked onto mounting portion 121 so that decorative member 15 attached to mounting portion 121 swings. A configuration in which decorative member 15 swings may be used. Alternatively, decorative member 15 may be attached to mounting portion 121 by using a combination of projections and recesses or male and female. In addition, in FIG. 2, the support portion 122 is made of a flat plate, but it may be configured in a rod shape or the like as shown in the second embodiment described later.

[0017] An end of the support portion 122 is held by the holding member 13. The support portion 122 has a hole 123. The hole 123 is formed according to the shape of the holding member 13. The diameter of the hole 123 is larger than the diameter of the inner pillar 131 of the holding member 13 and smaller than the diameter of the outer pillar 132. The support member 12 is sandwiched and held between the inner pillar 131 and the outer pillar 132 of the holding member 23. In addition, the shape of the portion where the support portion 122 is held by the holding member 13 is not limited to a hole, and can be appropriately adopted depending on the shape of the holding member 13. For example, if the holding member 13 has a groove, the support member 12 may be configured to be engaged or locked into the groove.

[0018] FIG. 3 is a view showing the support member 12 in the first embodiment. In order to make the decorative body 1 approximately spherical, the support member 12 is configured to draw a circle. The center of the support member 12 is a circle, and multiple support parts 122 are arranged radially from the circle. The support member 12 has a hole 123 at the center, and the holding member 13 is inserted into the hole. Each support part 12 of the support member 12 is configured to have the same length with the hole 123 as the center. In addition to the configuration in which the support member 12 has multiple support parts 122, multiple support members 12 each having one mounting part 121, one support part 122, and a hole 123 may be stacked, the holding member 13 may be inserted into the hole 123, and each support member 12 may be arranged radially with the holding member 13 as the center. In this case, the production of the decorative body 1 becomes more flexible, and the support member 12 can be used more generally. On the other hand, when using the support members 12 arranged radially as shown in FIG. 3, it is possible to make the decorative body 1 approximately spherical regardless of the user's skill.

[0019] The distance between each of the support parts 122 provided on the support member 12 in Fig. 3 is determined by the size of the decorative members 15. As shown in Fig. 1, the decorative members 15 are evenly arranged all over the decorative body 1, and the size of the decorative members 15 and the spacing between each of the support parts 122 are determined by the size of the decorative members 15 or the distance between the support members 12, respectively, so that the decorative members 15 can be arranged in a balanced manner regardless of which user makes the decorative body 1. In the first embodiment, the decorative body 1 is approximately spherical and the support member 12 that constitutes it is also circular, but if the shape of the decorative body 1 is another shape, the shape of the support member 12 can also be configured according to the shape of the decorative body 1.

[0020] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the side surfaces of the support member 12, the holding member 13, and the base portion 14 in the first embodiment. To make the decorative body 1 approximately spherical, a spherical framework is formed by arranging multiple support members 12 of different diameters horizontally. The shape of the decorative body 1 can be changed by changing the shape and arrangement of the support members 12. For example, if the decorative body 1 is to be a cube, a cubic framework can be formed by arranging multiple support members 12 of the same shape. In addition, various three-dimensional shapes such as triangular pyramids and cylinders can be formed depending on the configuration of the support member 12. By combining the long and short sides of the support member 12, a framework can be created that creates a design space that goes beyond imagination, and the variations are diverse.

[0021] The decorative body 1 shown in this example is composed of six layers of supporting members 121. The vertical distance between each supporting member 121 is determined by the size of the decorative members 15. As shown in Figure 1, the decorative members 15 are evenly distributed throughout the decorative body 1, and the size of the decorative members 15 and the spacing between each supporting member 12 are determined by the size of the decorative members 15 or the distance between the supporting members 12, respectively, so that the decorative members 15 can be arranged in a balanced manner regardless of which user makes the decorative body 1.

[0022] The angle of the mounting portion 121 of each support member 12 can be determined depending on the shape of the decorative body 1. Since the decorative body 1 is approximately spherical, the angle of the support members 12 is determined so that the side of the decorative body 1 is approximately spherical. The support members 12 in the first to fourth upper rows of the decorative body 1 are arranged so that their mounting portions 121 face downward relative to the support portions 122. The fifth and sixth rows from the top are configured so that the mounting portions 121 face upward relative to the support portions 122. The same support members are used for the second and sixth rows, and the third and fifth rows. The mounting portions 121 are arranged so that they face opposite each other, and by using the same members, the members can be made more versatile. In order to customize the decorative body 1 more freely, the attachment portion 121 may be made movable, and the length of the support portion 122 may be made variable. The tier configuration can be changed as appropriate depending on the type of space design to be created.

[0023] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the configuration of the holding unit 13. As shown in FIG. The holding portion 13 holds the support member 12 . The holding part 13 is composed of an inner column 131 and an outer column 132. The holding member 13 holds the support member 12 by clamping it with the outer column 132. Specifically, the outer column 132 is tubular, and the holding member 13 has a double structure with the outer column 132 on the outside of the inner column 131. The inner diameter of the hole of the outer column 132 is formed larger than the outer diameter of the inner column 131. The thickness of the outer column 132 may be any thickness that can clamp the support member 12. The outer column 132 is formed to have the same length as the position where the support member 12 is held in the height direction. The outer column 132 is inserted along the inner column 131, and then the support member 12 is inserted into the inner column 131. Next, the outer column 132 is inserted into the inner column 131, and the support member 12 is clamped by the outer column 132. Alternatively, the holding member 13 may be composed of only the inner pillar 131, with multiple horizontal grooves provided at any positions on the inner pillar 131, and the support portion 122 may be engaged in the grooves. In this embodiment, there is one retaining member 13, but there may be multiple retaining members. Also, just like multiple branches growing from a single tree, the retaining member 13 may be branched off midway and configured to have multiple inner pillars 131 and corresponding outer pillars 132.

[0024] Returning to Fig. 4, the decorative body 1 has a base 14. The base 14 of the decorative body 1 has a hole 141 into which the holding member 13 is fitted, and the holding member 131 is fitted into the hole 141 to support the holding member 13, the support member 12, and the decorative member 15. The base 14 is formed in a dome shape. In this embodiment, the base portion 14 has one hole 141, but it may have a plurality of holes 141 so as to support a plurality of holding members 13. In addition to the base portion 14 in this embodiment, a wall, a ceiling, or the like may be used as the base 14.

[0025] FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the structure of the decorative member 15. As shown in FIG. The decorative member 15 decorates the decorative body 1. The decorative member 15 has a decorative surface 151 and an attachment surface 152. The decorative surface 151 is formed in a shape resembling a flower. The decorative surface 151 may be expressed in either a two-dimensional or three-dimensional form. The mounting surface 152 is attached to the mounting portion 121 of the support member 12. In the decorative article 1, the mounting surface 152 is provided with a magnet.

[0026] In the decorative body 1, the decorative member 15 imitates a flower, but the shape of the decorative member 15 is not limited to a flower. Since the present invention is intended to produce "flowers and greenery that never wither," greenery (leaves) may be used in addition to flowers. In addition, decorative member 15 can be provided with design decorations and characters according to the season in which the decorative body 1 is to be displayed, such as hydrangeas for the rainy season, cicadas among greenery for summer, or events such as New Year's, Halloween, Christmas, etc. Alternatively, it can be used like an advent calendar, with one decorative member 15 attached to or removed from the mounting portion 121 each day. In this case, the decorative body 1 is designed to have the number of decorative members 15 required for the number of days. In these amusement themes, for example, it is possible to use phantom lights in combination to create a fantastical design.

[0027] In addition, since the present invention is intended to be given as a gift and to be enjoyed as an ornament for a long time by the recipient, a message can be written on the decorative member 15 and attached to make a gift. Therefore, decorative member 15 can take on various shapes and forms, and the processing of decorative surface 151 can be carried out appropriately depending on the purpose of decorative member 15, for example, if a message is to be written on it, a surface processing suitable for writing letters can be applied. In the decorative body 1, the decorative member 15 is made of wood. In the embodiment of the present application, cypress is used. In addition to the appearance of the decorative body 1, the scent of cypress can be enjoyed. In addition to wood, various materials such as metal, ceramics, cloth, paper, plastic, and dried flowers can be used for the decorative member 15. The mounting surface 152 of the decorative member 15 can be appropriately changed depending on the material of the decorative member 15. For example, if the decorative member 15 is made of ceramic and its weight is such that a magnet is not strong enough to mount it to the support member 22, the mounting surface 152 or the mounting portion 121 may be made uneven so as to fit together.

[0028] Next, the operation of the embodiment configured as above will be described. The user fits the inner pillar 131 of the holding member 13 into the hole 141 of the base portion 14 , and then inserts the outer pillar 132 , which is the lowest stage, from above the inner pillar 131 and fits it into the hole 141 . Next, the user inserts the lowest support member 12 from the top of the inner column 131, and then inserts the following outer column 132 into the inner column 131. Thereafter, the user repeats the same operation until all the support members 12 are inserted into the holding member 13 and clamped by the outer columns 132. This completes the framework of the decorative body 1, and the user attaches the decorative members 15 to the attachment parts 121 of the support member 12. When attaching the decorative members 15, the user can attach the desired decorative members 15 in the desired positions.

[0029] As described above, according to the first embodiment of the decorative body 1, the decorative member 15 is detachably attached to the mounting portion 121 of the support member 12, the decorative member 15 used for decoration can be changed as appropriate, and by changing the shape of the support member 12 and the number and shape of the holding members 13, frameworks of various shapes can be formed, allowing the user to create a decorative body that can be customized to the desired shape and decoration.

[0030] Next, a second embodiment will be described. In the first embodiment described above, the base 14 is a dome-shaped stand with a hole 141 into which the holding member 13 fits, and the holding member 13 is inserted into the hole 141, so that the sides and back of the decorative body 1 can also be appreciated, whereas in the second embodiment, the holding member 23 is flat and the base 24 serves as a frame. 7 and 11 are diagrams showing the configuration of the decorative body 2 in the second embodiment. The same components as those in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted as appropriate.

[0031] In Fig. 7, decorative body 2 is constructed so that decorative member 15 is raised above a flat surface, and decorative member 15 is shaped to resemble a flower, with the concaves and convexes giving the decorative body 2 as a whole a sense of streamlined, flowing movement. Fig. 8 shows a stand that supports decorative body 2 in an upright position, framed by base 24. It is used by leaning the back of decorative body 2 against two protrusions. Decorative body 2 is primarily intended to be hung on a wall or viewed standing on a stand such as the one shown in Fig. 8.

[0032] Like decorative body 1, decorative body 2 is composed of a support member 22, a holding member 23, a base 24, and a decorative member 15. 9 is a perspective view of the decorative body 2 shown in FIG. 7, and FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view of the holding member 23, the supporting member 22, and the decorative member 15 of the decorative body 2. As shown in FIG. The holding member 23 is a flat panel. The material of the panel may be paper, board, or other known materials, but it is preferable that the strength of the material and thickness of the panel is sufficient to hold each of the support members 22 to which the decorative members 15 are attached. The support member 22 is cylindrical, and the support portion 222 is held by adhesion to the holding member 23. A known adhesive can be used for adhesion.

[0033] In this embodiment, the support member 22 is held by the holding member 23 by adhesion, but the holding member 23 may be made of a magnetic material and a magnet may be attached to the support portion 222 of the support member 22 so that the holding member 23 holds the support member 22. In this embodiment, the magnetic material refers to a material that has the property of being attracted to a magnet, such as iron or stainless steel. The support member 23 is easier to move than when the support member 22 is held by the holding member 23 by adhesion, and the user can freely change the design of the ornament 2. When the support member 22 is held by the holding member 23 by magnetic force, the decorative member 15 and the holding member 23 may be made of a magnetic material, and magnets may be provided on the mounting portion 221 and the support portion 222 of the support member 22. In this case, the support member 22 may be formed of a magnet.

[0034] In this embodiment, the support member 22 is cylindrical, but it may be shaped like a rectangular column or the like, as long as the support member 22 can stably support the decorative member 15 and the holding member 23 can stably hold the support member 22. The material of the support member 22 can be appropriately selected from wood, metal, paper, plastic, etc. When appreciating the decorative body 2, the support member 22 is obscured by the decorative member 15 and is rarely seen by the user, but by making the support member 22 out of the same material as the decorative member 15, the decorative member 15 and the support member 22 can be perceived as a united body. Furthermore, the supporting member 22 can be made of a less noticeable material and shape depending on the material and shape of the decorative member 15. More specifically, when the decorative member 15 is made of a highly transparent material such as glass, the supporting member 22 may be made of transparent acrylic, and the supporting member 22 can be made less noticeable by giving it a cylindrical shape with a narrowed central portion.

[0035] The decorative member 15 is attached to the attachment portion 221 of the support member 22 by magnetic force. As shown in Fig. 10, the attachment surface 152 of the decorative member 15 is equipped with a magnet, and the attachment portion 221 of the support member 22 is equipped with a magnetic body. The attachment of the decorative member 15 to the attachment portion 221 of the support member 22 is not limited to magnetic force as described in the first embodiment, but can also be achieved by fitting or screwing a recess and a protrusion, a hook, or the like. FIG. 12 is a perspective view of the decorative body 2 shown in FIG. The decorative body 2 shown in Fig. 11 is configured so that the decorative members 15 are raised above a flat surface, similar to Fig. 7. The decorative body 2 as a whole is configured so that the unevenness formed by the decorative members 15 gives the impression of undulating movement. In this way, by changing the height of each support member 22, the decorative body 2 can be made into various three-dimensional shapes.

[0036] Additionally, in this embodiment, the support member 22 is held perpendicular to the holding member 23, but the decorative body 2 can take various three-dimensional shapes by changing the angle at which the support part 222 of the support member 22 contacts the holding member 23. By changing the angle at which the support part 222 contacts the holding member 23, the decorative member 15 can be viewed from various angles, and for example, a dome shape or semi-cylindrical shape can be formed on the holding member 23, which is a panel. In order to view the decorative member 15 in the decorative body 2 from various angles, it is possible to change the angle at which the support part 222 contacts the holding member 23, as well as by changing the mounting angle of the decorative member 15 to the mounting part 221 of the support member 22. For example, like the mounting part 221 of the first embodiment shown in Fig. 2, the angle of the mounting part 221 with respect to the main body of the support member 22 may be any angle other than 90 degrees, and the mounting part 221 may be movable. Instead of making the mounting part 221 variable, the mounting surface 152 of the decorative member 15 may be movable.

[0037] In the second embodiment, the holding member 23 is a panel and holds the support member 22 by adhesion, but the holding member 23 may be a rail-shaped member that is fitted into the panel. In this case, the panel becomes the base portion 24. More specifically, the holding member 23 is configured in a rail shape for fitting or locking and holding the support member 22. The shape of the rail is reminiscent of, for example, a general curtain rail shape (a shape called a C-shape because the cross section of the rail resembles the letter C, and similarly, a shape called a square shape or a D-shape based on the cross section of the rail). The holding member 23 configured in the rail shape is fitted into the panel that is the base portion 24.

[0038] The attachment portion 221 of the support member 22 is similar to that of the first and second embodiments described above. In the first embodiment, the support portion 222 of the support member 22 is held by the holding member 13 through the hole 124, but in this embodiment, the support portion 222 is configured in an L-shape or a T-shape and is held by being engaged with or locked to the holding member 23. The shape of the support portion 222 is determined together with the shape of the holding member 23. As described above, the holding member 23 is a rail-shaped rod-like member made of metal or the like. The shape of the support part 222 of the support member 22 is determined by the shape of the opening of the holding member 23. More specifically, if the opening, for example, the cross section of the holding member 23 is C-shaped, it is a space provided between the start point and the end point of the letter C in the cross section, but if the opening is close to the center of the side surface on which the opening is located in the cross section of the holding member 23, the support member 22 is preferably T-shaped, and if the opening is close to either the top or bottom of the outer surface, the support part 222 of the support member 22 is preferably L-shaped.

[0039] In addition, it is preferable that the holding member 23 and the supporting member 22 that is fitted or locked to the holding member 23 are attached so that the position of the supporting member 22 does not move when the decorative body 2 is moved. In other words, it is preferable that the holding member 23 and the supporting member 22 that is fitted or locked to the holding member 23 are in contact with each other as much as possible, so that the supporting member 22 is fitted or locked to the holding member 23 with little play. In this case, "play" refers to a space that is formed between the holding member 23 and the supporting part 222 that is fitted or locked to the holding member 23. If this space were to be completely eliminated, it would be difficult to attach and detach the supporting member 22 to and from the holding member 23. Therefore, it is preferable that the shapes of the holding member 23 and the supporting part 222 are such that the supporting member 22 can be easily attached and detached to and from the holding member 23, and that the supporting member 22 does not easily move on the holding member 23 when the supporting member 22 is fitted or locked to the holding member 23. Therefore, the shape of the support portion 222 of the support member 22 and the shape of the holding member 23 may be any shape that allows the support member 22 to be fitted or locked to the holding member 23 with little play. In addition, the support member 22 can be fitted or engaged with the holding member 23 by inserting the support member 22 from the front of the opening of the holding member 23, or by opening the longitudinal end of the holding member 23 and inserting the support member 22 sequentially from the opening, as in the case of a typical curtain rail. The holding member 23 is fitted into a groove 241 provided in the base portion 24 . The base 24 is the surface on which a picture or the like is placed in a normal frame. The base 24 has a groove 241 into which the holding member 23 is fitted.

[0040] Next, the operation of the second embodiment configured as above will be described. 7 and 11, when the support member 22 has the shortest height, the length of the support portion 222 is configured so that the decorative members 15 are positioned close to the surface of the holding member 23. The length of the support portion 222 is gradually increased, and the decorative members 15 are arranged so as to be spread out over the holding member 23. By changing the length of the support portion 222, the support member 22 is configured so that the decorative body 2 has a gentle wave shape when viewed from the front.

[0041] The above describes an embodiment of the decorative body of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiment, and various modifications can be made within the scope described in each claim. For example, in the embodiment described, the angle of the mounting portion of the support member is fixed, but this may be made movable, and the length of the support portion is fixed, but this may be made extendable. In addition, the base is a stand, a panel, or a frame, but for example, a wall may be used as the base and the holding member may be fitted into the wall surface. In the first embodiment, the framework is spherical, but it is also possible to configure frameworks of various three-dimensional shapes, such as a cube, a triangle, a triangular pyramid, a cylinder, and an egg shape.
