[0010] The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings to facilitate understanding of the invention. Note that the following embodiments are merely examples of the present invention and do not limit the technical scope of the invention. Furthermore, the configurations and processing functions described in the following embodiments can be selected and combined as desired.

[0011] (Embodiment 1) [1] Structure of hanging scroll products First, the structure of the hanging scroll product 1 will be explained with reference to Figures 1 to 3.

[0012] Hanging scroll product 1 is a product made by mounting calligraphy, paintings, etc., on paper and / or cloth, and adding a scroll made of bamboo or wood, so that it can be hung on the wall of a house or other location for display. Hanging scroll product 1 is a form of product primarily for appreciating calligraphy, paintings, etc., and is widely used not only in homes but also in non-residential facilities such as shops, museums, schools, or public facilities.

[0013] The hanging scroll product 1, as a basic structure, comprises the main paper 2, the mounting fabric 3, and the scroll 4, as shown in Figure 1. In the following, the hanging scroll product 1 will be described using the "up, down, left, and right" directions as seen from the front when the hanging scroll product 1 is hanging on a wall, i.e., the "up, down, left, and right" directions shown in Figure 1. Furthermore, the thickness direction of the hanging scroll product 1 when hanging on a wall will be defined as the front-to-back direction, with the side opposite the wall (i.e., the front side of the paper in Figure 1) being referred to as the "front" and the side facing the wall (i.e., the back side of the paper in Figure 1) being referred to as the "back". However, these directions are used only for explanatory purposes and are not intended to limit the direction in which the hanging scroll product 1 can be used (i.e., when it is displayed).

[0014] The main paper 2 is the part on which works such as calligraphy and paintings are inscribed (written), and is the main component of the hanging scroll product 1. The mounting fabric 3 is a component that is placed around the main paper 2. The shaft 4 is a component that is placed at both the upper and lower ends of the mounting fabric 3. When the hanging scroll product 1 is displayed on a wall, etc., it is in an "unfolded position" and is in a "rolled position" when stored or transported, etc., with the scroll wrapped around the shaft 4 (shaft rod 41). Therefore, the hanging scroll product 1 is required to be flexible enough to change (deform) its position at least between the unfolded position and the rolled position. A typical hanging scroll product 1 has a structure in which three or four layers of different paper are used as backing to protect the main paper 2.

[0015] By the way, scroll products have various finishing styles (mounting), and their structures vary depending on the finishing style. Common finishing styles of scroll products include, for example, round mounting (bag mounting), three-stage mounting (Yamato mounting), and Buddhist mounting. Round mounting is a style that includes the main paper 2, as well as the pillars 31 and the single-line 32 as the mounting slits 3. Three-stage mounting is a style that, in addition to the main paper 2, the pillars 31 and the single-line 32, has middle turns (outer turns) on both the upper and lower sides of the main paper 2 as the mounting slits 3. Buddhist mounting is a style that, in addition to the main paper 2, the pillars 31, the single-line 32, and the middle turns (outer turns) on the upper and lower sides of the main paper 2, has single-line pillars and middle pillars on both the left and right sides of the main paper 2 as the mounting slits 3. In three-stage mounting and Buddhist mounting, the scroll product further includes two long and thin ornaments (wind bands) that hang down from the upper end.

[0016] Thus, the components (parts) of the scroll product vary depending on its finishing style (mounting). The "method for manufacturing a scroll product" according to this embodiment is applicable to various finishing styles regardless of the finishing style of the scroll product. That is, although there are some differences in the manufacturing method of the scroll product depending on the finishing style of the scroll product, the manufacturing method of the scroll product according to this embodiment described below can be used to create scroll products of various finishing styles regardless of the finishing style. In this embodiment, the scroll product 1 with round mounting will be described as an example.

[0017] More specifically, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the scroll product 1 according to this embodiment further includes a base material 5 (see FIG. 2), a hanging cord 6, etc. in addition to the main paper 2, the mounting slit 3, and the shaft 4.

[0018] The scroll product 1 is rectangular in shape with a length in the vertical direction in the "deployed posture". However, the shape of the scroll product 1 is not limited to this shape, and it may be, for example, rectangular with a length in the horizontal direction, square, other polygonal shapes, or circular.

[0019] The paper 2 is a member on which calligraphy, paintings, etc. are scribed (written) and which is the main object of appreciation. The "calligraphy and painting" referred to in the present disclosure means characters (writing) and / or paintings (paintings), and mainly refers to characters and / or paintings written with a brush by an artist. That is, on the paper 2, calligraphy and paintings consisting of only characters, only paintings, or a combination of writing and painting are scribed. The paper 2 is not limited to calligraphy written with a brush, and various art works such as oil paintings, cut-out paintings, or prints can be depicted on it.

[0020] The paper 2 is located at the central part of the front surface of the hanging scroll product 1. In this embodiment, as an example, the paper 2 is a rectangular sheet material having a length in the vertical direction. The paper 2 is made of a material such as paper or cloth (silk) at least on the surface (front surface). The paper 2 made of paper material is also called "paper scroll", and the paper 2 made of silk material is also called "silk scroll". That is, the paper 2 is a paper scroll or a silk scroll.

[0021] The mounting border 3 is a member arranged around the paper 2 on the front surface of the hanging scroll product 1. The mounting border 3 decorates the periphery of the paper 2 and becomes an object of appreciation together with the paper 2. The mounting border 3 is made of a material such as paper or cloth (silk) at least on the surface (front surface).

[0022] Since the hanging scroll product 1 according to this embodiment has a round mounting, as described above, the mounting border 3 has the columns 31 and the single character 32. The mounting border 3 further has the top and bottom borders 33.

[0023] The column 31 is a border member arranged on both the left and right sides of the paper 2. That is, the mounting border 3 has a pair of columns 31, and the paper 2 is located between these pair of columns 31. In this embodiment, as an example, each column 31 is a rectangular sheet material having a length in the vertical direction.

[0024] The single character 32 is a border member arranged on both the top and bottom sides of the paper 2. That is, the mounting border 3 has a pair of single characters 32, and the paper 2 is located between these pair of single characters 32. In this embodiment, as an example, each single character 32 is a rectangular (strip-shaped) sheet material having a length in the horizontal direction and is made of, for example, gold border or silver border, etc.

[0025] The top and bottom sections 33 are fabric members positioned on both the upper and lower sides of the main paper 2 and the pair of horizontal strips 32. In other words, the mounting fabric 3 has a pair of top and bottom sections 33, and the main paper 2 and the pair of horizontal strips 32 are positioned between these pairs of top and bottom sections 33. In this embodiment, as an example, each top and bottom section 33 is a rectangular sheet material having length in the left-right direction.

[0026] In a round mounting (bag mounting), the pillars 31 are made of the same fabric as the top and bottom 33. Therefore, in a front view, the main paper 2 (and the pair of horizontal strips 32) of the hanging scroll product 1 is located in an area surrounded all around by the pillars 31 and top and bottom 33, which are made of the same fabric.

[0027] The shaft 4 comprises a shaft rod 41, a saddle 42, and a shaft end 43. The shaft rod 41 and the saddle 42 are made of, for example, wood, resin, or metal and have appropriate strength.

[0028] The shaft 41 is a round rod-shaped member with a circular cross-section and length in the left-right direction. The shaft 41 is located at the lower end of the hanging scroll product 1 and is the core part when the hanging scroll product 1 is rolled up (when it is in the "rolled position"). The shaft 41 is held in place by being wrapped with the fabric and backing paper at the lower end of the lower of the pair of upper and lower parts 33.

[0029] The Hasso 42 is a rod-shaped member with a semicircular cross-section and length in the left-right direction, and is also called the "front piece." The Hasso 42 is located at the upper end of the hanging scroll product 1 and is the core part for suspending the hanging scroll product 1 when it is hung on a wall or the like. The Hasso 42 is held at the upper end of the upper part of the pair of upper and lower parts 33.

[0030] The shaft ends 43 are decorative members positioned on both sides of the shaft rod 41 in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction). In other words, the shaft 4 has a pair of shaft ends 43, and the shaft rod 41 is located between these pair of shaft ends 43.

[0031] In Figure 2, the main paper 2 and the mounting fabric 3 are each represented as single sheet-like components, but in reality, the main paper 2 and the mounting fabric 3 are each backed with double or triple layers of "backing paper". For example, in the case of the main paper 2, the backing paper and additional backing paper are layered and pasted in this order onto the back (rear) side of the main paper 2 on which calligraphy and paintings are written, resulting in an overall three-layer structure. Similarly, for each of the pillars 31, the horizontal lines 32, and the top and bottom 33 of the mounting fabric 3, the backing paper and additional backing paper are layered and pasted in this order onto the back (rear) side of the mounting fabric 3 located on the outermost surface (front), resulting in an overall three-layer structure.

[0032] Furthermore, the main paper 2 and the mounting fabric 3, which form a multi-layered structure, are glued to the surface (front) side of the base material 5, as shown in Figure 2. The base material 5 is the base component of the hanging scroll product 1, and like the hanging scroll product 1 as a whole, it is a rectangular sheet material with length in the vertical direction.

[0033] In the "unfolded position," the base material 5 is located at the very back. On the other hand, in the "rolled-up position," the scroll product 1 is rolled up so that the main paper 2 is on the inside, so the base material 5 is located at the very front.

[0034] In this embodiment, the base material 5 has an inner backing paper 51 and a total backing paper 52. The base material 5 has the inner backing paper 51 and the total backing paper 52 layered and glued to the back (back) side of the main paper 2, etc., in that order, and has a two-layer structure overall. In other words, the total backing paper 52 is located at the very back (backmost) when the scroll product 1 is in the "unfolded position" and at the very front when it is in the "rolled-up position".

[0035] Each component (main sheet 2, pillars 31, horizontal bars 32, and top and bottom 33, etc.) that is attached to the surface side of the base material 5 is positioned with a certain degree of overlap and joined to one another. That is, for example, a pair of pillars 31 located on both the left and right sides of the main sheet 2 will partially overlap with both the left and right ends of the main sheet 2. Similarly, a pair of horizontal bars 32 located on both the top and bottom sides of the main sheet 2 will partially overlap with both the top and bottom ends of the main sheet 2.

[0036] Here, various joining methods can be applied as means of joining each component, such as adhesives like water-based glue, adhesive tapes, or tapes with a heat-fusible resin layer on one or both sides of the core material.

[0037] Furthermore, appropriate paper materials are used for each surface of the main paper 2 and the mounting fabric 3, as well as for the backing paper, additional backing paper, middle backing paper 51, and total backing paper 52. For example, thin Mino paper, small Misu paper, or Bunka Misu paper may be used for the backing paper of the main paper 2, and Misu paper or Bunka Misu paper may be used for the additional backing paper. For example, Uda paper or Bunka Misu paper may be used for the total backing paper 52.

[0038] The hanging cord 6 is a string-like component used to hang the scroll product 1 on a wall or other surface, and is also called a "hanging cord." The hanging cord 6 is attached to the Hasso 42, thereby being attached to the upper end of the scroll product 1.

[0039] Furthermore, in addition to the above configuration, the hanging scroll product 1 is further equipped with, for example, a winding cord for holding the hanging scroll product 1 in a "rolled position".

[0040] [2] Method of manufacturing hanging scroll products Next, the manufacturing method of the hanging scroll product 1 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 4 and 5.

[0041] In other words, the manufacturing method of the hanging scroll product 1 according to this embodiment has multiple (in this case, five) steps (processes) including a creation step P1, a base preparation step P2, a masking step P3, a drawing step P4, and a finishing step P5, as shown in Figures 4 and 5. In this embodiment, the creation step P1, the base preparation step P2, the masking step P3, the drawing step P4, and the finishing step P5 are performed in this order.

[0042] In this embodiment, at least the base preparation process P2, the masking process P3, the drawing process P4, and the finishing process P5 are all performed manually. In other words, at least each process other than the creation process P1 is performed manually by an operator.

[0043] The creation process P1 is the process of creating a hanging scroll product 1 in a state where no calligraphy or paintings have been written on it. In other words, in this embodiment, a hanging scroll product 1 with the structure described in the section "[1] Structure of the hanging scroll product" is first created in a blank state. Specifically, in the creation process P1, the main paper 2 and mounting fabric 3 etc. are glued to the base material 5, and the scroll 4 and hanging cord 6 etc. are attached to create the hanging scroll product 1 as shown in the creation process P1 in Figure 4.

[0044] The creation process P1 may be performed manually, or at least part of it may be automated in a factory or the like. In particular, when preparing a large quantity of blank scroll products 1, it is preferable that at least part of the creation process P1 be automated. In any case, first, as shown in Figure 4, the blank scroll products 1 obtained by the creation process P1 are prepared.

[0045] Thus, the hanging scroll product 1 obtained in the creation process P1 will have a drawing area R1 on the surface of the main paper 2 for writing calligraphy, paintings, etc. In other words, the surface (front) of the main paper 2 is an example of a drawing area R1.

[0046] The key point here is that, at the time of creation in process P1, the drawing area R1 is blank, with no calligraphy or paintings written on it. Therefore, the main paper 2 used in the assembly of the hanging scroll product 1 in process P1 is blank, without any calligraphy or paintings written on it. In process P1, the hanging scroll product 1 is assembled using this blank main paper 2, before the drawing process P4.

[0047] The base layer generation process P2, following the creation process P1, is a process of generating a base layer 71 on at least the drawing area R1. The base layer 71 is a thin film generated by a worker applying, for example, a transparent or white undercoat material (undercoat paint) to the surface of the main paper 2 or the like that makes up the drawing area R1. The generation of the base layer 71 makes the surface state of the drawing area R1 more suitable for writing calligraphy, etc., compared to when there is no base layer 71. In other words, in the base layer generation process P2, at least the surface of the drawing area R1 is laminated with a base layer 71.

[0048] Incidentally, in the hanging scroll product 1, the mounting fabric 3 is positioned around the main paper 2. In this embodiment, the mounting fabric 3 includes a pair of pillars 31, a pair of horizontal lines 32, and a pair of top and bottom borders 33, and these components are arranged around the main paper 2. Therefore, the hanging scroll product 1 obtained in the manufacturing process P1 has a background area R2 around the drawing area R1 for writing calligraphy, etc. In other words, the surface (front) of the mounting fabric 3 is an example of the background area R2.

[0049] Then, in the base layer generation process P2, a base layer 71 is generated from the drawing area R1 to at least a portion of the background area R2. In this embodiment, as an example, the base layer 71 is formed over substantially the entire background area R2, which consists of the surface of the mounting fabric 3. In other words, the base layer 71 is formed over substantially the entire surface (front) of the scroll product 1, extending from the drawing area R1 into the surrounding background area R2. In Figure 4, the hatched (shaded) area represents the area where the base layer 71 is formed.

[0050] The masking process P3, which follows the base preparation process P2, is a process of applying a mask (masking) around the drawing area R1. Specifically, in the masking process P3, masking is applied along the outer edge of the main paper 2 using a masking material 72, such as masking tape. Here, the masking material 72 is formed so as to leave virtually no gaps with the outer edge of the main paper 2 and extends around the entire circumference of the main paper 2. In other words, in the masking process P3, the worker applies masking to the covering fabric 3 (columns 31, horizontal lines 32 and top and bottom edges 33) around the main paper 2 by attaching the masking material 72 to its surface.

[0051] The drawing process P4, which follows the masking process P3, is the process of drawing calligraphy, paintings, etc., on the drawing area R1. In other words, in the drawing process P4, the worker (artist) writes calligraphy, paintings, etc., on the surface (front) of the main paper 2. In short, in the manufacturing method of the hanging scroll product 1 according to this embodiment, the hanging scroll product 1 is created using a blank main paper 2 in the creation process P1, while in the drawing process P4, which is later than the creation process P1, calligraphy, paintings, etc., are written on the main paper 2 in the state that forms the hanging scroll product 1.

[0052] Furthermore, in the drawing process P4, masking material 72 is applied around the drawing area R1, so it is not a problem even if the calligraphy or painting extends beyond the drawing area R1. Therefore, in the drawing process P4, even though the main paper 2 already forms the form of the hanging scroll product 1, the worker (artist) can create the calligraphy or painting without hesitation, even if it extends beyond the main paper 2.

[0053] The finishing process P5, which follows the drawing process P4, is a finishing process for the hanging scroll product 1 in which calligraphy, paintings, etc., have been drawn in the drawing area R1. In other words, in the finishing process P5, the worker removes at least the masking material 72 around the drawing area R1. As a result, even if the calligraphy, paintings, etc., have been drawn beyond the drawing area R1 in the drawing process P4, the parts that have extended beyond the drawing area R1 are removed along with the masking material 72, making it possible to keep the calligraphy, paintings, etc., within the drawing area R1.

[0054] Furthermore, in the finishing process P5, finishing materials are applied, dried, cleaned, and / or packaged as needed. This completes the hanging scroll product 1, making it ready for shipment, for example.

[0055] As described above, the manufacturing method of the hanging scroll product 1 according to this embodiment comprises a creation step P1 and a drawing step P4. In the creation step P1, the hanging scroll product 1 including a drawing area R1 is created. The drawing step P4 is a step that follows the creation step P1 and involves drawing on the drawing area R1 of the hanging scroll product 1.

[0056] This configuration, compared to the general method of manufacturing a hanging scroll product 1 in which the artist creates the main paper 2 and then mounts it into a hanging scroll product 1, reverses the order of at least the creation process P1 and the drawing process P4. As a result, the time required from the time the artist creates the calligraphy or painting until the hanging scroll product 1 is completed can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, risks such as damaging the main paper 2 during this time can be avoided. Thus, this method offers the advantage of providing a more efficient method for manufacturing a hanging scroll product 1.

[0057] Furthermore, in the hanging scroll product 1, the value lies particularly in the main paper 2 on which the calligraphy or painting is inscribed. If, by any chance, the main paper 2, which is inscribed with the calligraphy or painting, is damaged during the process of creating (assembling) the hanging scroll product 1, the loss would be very large, and the manufacturer of the hanging scroll product 1 could be held very liable. In contrast, in the manufacturing method of the hanging scroll product 1 according to this embodiment, the calligraphy or painting has not yet been inscribed in the creation process P1 of the hanging scroll product 1. Therefore, even if the main paper 2 is damaged in this state, the loss can be kept relatively small.

[0058] Furthermore, since the hanging scroll product 1 is created in advance using the blank main paper 2, it is possible to mass-produce the hanging scroll product 1 in the production process P1. This is expected to significantly improve the production efficiency of the hanging scroll product 1.

[0059] Furthermore, for artists creating calligraphy or paintings, since they are working on the main paper 2 (depiction area R1) which will eventually form the structure of the hanging scroll product 1, it becomes easier to visualize the finished form of the hanging scroll product 1 while working on the calligraphy or painting.

[0060] Furthermore, if the artist creates the calligraphy or painting while the scroll product 1 is actually installed in the intended location, it becomes easier for the artist to visualize the finished form of the scroll product 1. In addition, by hanging the scroll product 1 on a wall or other surface and creating the calligraphy or painting on the upright main paper 2, the artist can more easily create effects such as using gravity to create the appearance of dripping ink.

[0061] Furthermore, the manufacturing method of the hanging scroll product 1 according to this embodiment further includes a base preparation step P2, which occurs after the creation step P1 and before the drawing step P4. The base preparation step P2 is a step of generating a base layer 71 over the drawing area R1.

[0062] This makes it possible to create, for example, a base layer 71 of the artist's preferred colors when writing calligraphy or other artwork in the drawing area R1.

[0063] Furthermore, the hanging scroll product 1 further includes a background area R2 surrounding the depiction area R1. In the base layer generation process P2, a base layer 71 is generated in both the depiction area R1 and the background area R2.

[0064] This allows the underlying layer 71 to be generated simultaneously in both the depiction area R1 and the background area R2, making it easier to, for example, match the colors of the depiction area R1 and the background area R2.

[0065] [3] Variant The following lists some modifications of Embodiment 1. The modifications described below can be combined and applied as appropriate.

[0066] The manufacturing method for the hanging scroll product 1 only needs to include the creation step P1 and the drawing step P4, and at least one of the base preparation step P2, masking step P3, and finishing step P5 may be omitted as appropriate. Furthermore, the order of these steps may be changed, and steps may be added as appropriate.

[0067] Furthermore, at least one of the creation process P1, the base preparation process P2, the masking process P3, the drawing process P4, and the finishing process P5 may be performed manually, for example, all of them, including the creation process P1, may be performed manually. Conversely, at least one of the creation process P1, the base preparation process P2, the masking process P3, the drawing process P4, and the finishing process P5 may be automated, for example, at least one of the base preparation process P2, the masking process P3, the drawing process P4, and the finishing process P5 may be automated.

[0068] Furthermore, the materials, shapes, etc., of each component of the hanging scroll product 1 described in Embodiment 1 are merely examples and can be changed as appropriate. [Explanation of Symbols]
