Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a board with a stand function.

[0002] For example, when learning to read and write musical notation, a whiteboard is sometimes used as a convenient means, and there are portable, foldable whiteboards with musical staves displayed on the surface (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Utility model registration No. 3226331 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The whiteboard in Patent Document 1 is composed of a resin sheet and a whiteboard sheet on which a musical staff is displayed. The resin sheet has a hinge portion, and the whiteboard can be used by folding the hinge portion.

[0005] In the whiteboard of Patent Document 1, it is believed that the whiteboard is maintained in a self-supporting usable state by inserting a protruding piece protruding from one end of the resin sheet into a hole formed in the other end of the resin sheet. However, the protruding piece and the hole are for maintaining the whiteboard in a self-supporting usable state, and the protruding piece and the hole cannot maintain the resin sheet in a folded state.

[0006] As described above, the whiteboard of Patent Document 1 does not have a means for maintaining the resin sheet in a folded state. Therefore, for example, when carrying the resin sheet in a folded state, the resin sheet may unfold, making handling very cumbersome.

[0007] SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT EMBODIMENT An object of the present invention is to provide a board with a stand function that can also serve as a position maintaining means for maintaining both the folded position and the freestanding position. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The board with stand function of the present invention is characterized in that it comprises a first plate-shaped member, a second plate-shaped member connected to the first plate-shaped member via a connection part so as to be openable and closable, and a posture maintaining means that can assume a folded posture maintaining state in which the first plate-shaped member and the second plate-shaped member are folded with the connection part as the boundary, and an independent posture maintaining state in which the first plate-shaped member and the second plate-shaped member are facing each other with the connection part as the boundary and independent.

[0009] As a result, in the board with stand function according to the present invention, the posture maintaining means in the folded posture maintaining state for maintaining the folded posture is switched to the self-supporting posture maintaining state for maintaining the self-supporting posture after the first plate-like member and the second plate-like member are opened, so that the posture maintaining means for maintaining both the folded posture and the self-supporting posture can be used together, and therefore, even if a means for maintaining the folded posture and a means for maintaining the self-supporting posture are not separately provided, the board with stand function can be prevented from opening when being carried in a folded state, for example, and the board with stand function can be easily handled.

[0010] In the board with stand function of the present invention, the posture maintaining means is characterized by comprising a fastener provided on the first plate-shaped member and a binding portion attached to the second plate-shaped member and having a connecting device that can be connected to the fastener.

[0011] As a result, in the board with stand function according to the present invention, a posture maintaining means can be easily configured that can be switched between a folded posture maintaining state in which the folded posture is maintained and an independent posture maintaining state in which the independent posture is maintained.

[0012] In the board with stand function of the present invention, the fasteners are provided in multiple locations, and the multiple fasteners are provided on the first plate-shaped member at different distances from the connection portion.

[0013] As a result, the board with stand function according to the present invention can easily switch between the folded position and the freestanding position by connecting the joint of the binding part to any one of the multiple fasteners. Also, when three or more fasteners are provided, the distance between the first plate-like member and the second plate-like member in the freestanding position can be changed by connecting the joint of the binding part to any one of the multiple fasteners, thereby changing the way in which the first plate-like member and the second plate-like member are opened.

[0014] In the board with stand function of the present invention, a plurality of fasteners are provided, and the plurality of fasteners are arranged in a line on the first plate-shaped member in a direction perpendicular to the connection portion.

[0015] As a result, in the board with stand function according to the present invention, when the joining tool of the binding part is joined to one of the fasteners that is provided near the connection part in the folded position, the fastener that is provided farther from the connection part than the fastener can be covered and hidden by the binding part, thereby improving the aesthetic appearance in the folded position.

[0016] In the board with stand function according to the present invention, the binding portion has a length adjustment portion for adjusting the length of the binding portion.

[0017] As a result, in the board with stand function of the present invention, by adjusting the length of the binding portion, the distance between the first plate-like member and the second plate-like member in a free-standing position can be changed, and the way in which the first plate-like member and the second plate-like member open can be changed.

[0018] In the board with stand function of the present invention, in the folded position, the back surface of the first plate-shaped member faces the back surface of the second plate-shaped member, and in the freestanding position, the front surface of the first plate-shaped member faces the front surface of the second plate-shaped member, and a whiteboard or storage section is provided on at least one of the back surface of the first plate-shaped member and the back surface of the second plate-shaped member.

[0019] As a result, in the board with stand function of the present invention, the whiteboard or storage section is positioned between the first plate-shaped member and the second plate-shaped member when in the folded position, so that the whiteboard or storage section can be protected when the board with stand function is carried in the folded position.

[0020] In the board with stand function of the present invention, in the folded position, the back surface of the first plate-shaped member faces the back surface of the second plate-shaped member, and in the freestanding position, the back surface of the first plate-shaped member faces the back surface of the second plate-shaped member, and a whiteboard or storage section is provided on at least one of the surface of the first plate-shaped member and the surface of the second plate-shaped member.

[0021] As a result, in the board with stand function according to the present invention, the whiteboard is disposed on the outer surfaces of the first and second plate-shaped members in the folded position, so that the whiteboard can be used in the folded position without opening the first and second plate-shaped members. Also, since the storage section is disposed on the outer surface of the first or second plate-shaped member in the folded position, when the board with stand function is carried in the folded position, a mobile terminal, earphones, etc. can be stored and carried together with a computer, etc.

[0022] In the board with stand function according to the present invention, the storage section is formed of a transparent material.

[0023] As a result, in the board with stand function according to the present invention, it is possible to easily check what is stored in the storage section.

[0024] In the board with stand function according to the present invention, at least one of the first plate-like member and the second plate-like member has a holder for holding a writing implement.

[0025] As a result, in the board with stand function according to the present invention, by using the holder to hold a writing implement for writing on the whiteboard surface, the writing implement can be carried along with the board with stand function.

[0026] In the board with stand function according to the present invention, at least one of the first plate-shaped member and the second plate-shaped member is configured so that a magnet can be attracted thereto.

[0027] As a result, in the board with stand function according to the present invention, for example documents can be attached to the first plate-like member or the second plate-like member by the magnet. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0029] Hereinafter, a board with stand function 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0030] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the board with stand function 1 of this embodiment has a first plate-shaped member 10 and a second plate-shaped member 30. The first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are, for example, vertically long rectangular members, and have approximately the same size. The first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are formed of a material with relatively low flexibility.

[0031] 2(a), a connection edge 11 which is one long side of the first plate-like member 10 and a connection edge 31 which is one long side of the second plate-like member 30 are connected by a connection part 20. The connection part 20 has substantially the same length as the connection edges 11 and 31. The connection part 20 is formed of a material which is more flexible than the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30. Therefore, the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30 can be folded at the connection part 20.

[0032] That is, as shown in Figure 1(a), the board with stand function 1 of this embodiment can be folded at the connection portion 20 to stack the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30, and can assume a folded posture in which the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are folded at the connection portion 20.

[0033] In the folded position shown in Fig. 1(a), when the fastener 13a is released from the connector 34 of the bound portion 33 and the bound portion 33 is extended as described below, the state shown in Fig. 1(b) is obtained. After that, the first plate-like member 10 is opened relative to the second plate-like member 30 by holding the open edge 12 (the long side opposite the connecting edge 11) of the first plate-like member 10 and rotating it about the connecting portion 20 as a fulcrum in a direction away from the open edge 32 (the long side opposite the connecting edge 31) of the second plate-like member 30, resulting in the open position shown in Fig. 2(a).

[0034] That is, the board with stand function 1 of this embodiment can take an open position in which the first plate-like member 10, the connection portion 20, and the second plate-like member 30 are arranged on approximately the same plane, as shown in FIG. 2(a).

[0035] In the folded position, the surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30 are positioned on the outside, and the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30 are positioned facing each other.

[0036] As shown in Figures 1(b) and 2(b), two fasteners 13a, 13b are provided on the surface 10a of the first plate-like member 10. The fastener 13a is disposed approximately in the center of the surface 10a of the first plate-like member 10, and the fastener 13b is disposed in the vicinity of the open edge portion 12 of the surface 10a of the first plate-like member 10. Note that, for example, snap buttons (hooks) are used as the fasteners 13a, 13b.

[0037] Therefore, the fasteners 13a, 13b are arranged apart in the short side direction in the longitudinal center of the surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10. The two fasteners 13a, 13b are provided in portions of the surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10 that are different distances away from the connection portion 20. The two fasteners 13a, 13b are arranged side by side in a direction perpendicular to the connection portion 20 on the surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10.

[0038] 2(a), a transparent film 16 for forming the storage section 14 is attached to the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10. The transparent film 16 has approximately the same size as the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10. Only one long side 16a and one short side 16b of the transparent film 16 are joined to the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10.

[0039] Therefore, the other long side 16c and the other short side 16d of the transparent film 16 are configured to be movable toward and away from the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10. Thus, the long side 16c and the short side 16d of the transparent film 16 can be moved away from the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10, and a piece of paper such as a document can be inserted between the transparent film 16 and the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10.

[0040] Furthermore, a substantially trapezoidal stopper 18 is attached to the corner of the back surface 10b of the first plate-like member 10 adjacent to the connection portion 20. The stopper 18 is attached to the back surface 10b of the first plate-like member 10 at a portion corresponding to the inclined side. Therefore, after inserting a document or other paper sheet between the transparent film 16 and the back surface 10b of the first plate-like member 10, by inserting the edge portion 16A of the transparent film 16 between the stopper 18 and the back surface 10b of the first plate-like member 10, the paper sheet can be prevented from falling.

[0041] As shown in Figs. 1(a) and 2(a), a binding portion 33 is attached to the open edge portion 32 of the second plate-like member 30. The binding portion 33 is a long member extending in a direction perpendicular to the connection portion 20, and can be folded with the open edge portion 32 as a fulcrum. The binding portion 33 has a predetermined length, and a connector 34 that can be connected to the fasteners 13a and 13b is provided at its tip. For example, the connector 34 is pressed toward the fastener 13a in a state in which the connector 34 is arranged to face the fastener 13a, whereby the connector 34 and the fastener 13a are connected to each other. On the other hand, the connector 34 connected to the fastener 13a is pulled in a direction away from the fastener 13a, whereby the connector 34 and the fastener 13a are released from their connection. The fastener 13b is similar to the fastener 13a.

[0042] FIG. 1(b) shows the state in which the binding portion 33 is stretched from the folded posture after the fastener 34 of the binding portion 33 is removed from the fastener 13a. When the binding portion 33 is folded at its base in FIG. 1(b) and the fastener 34 at the tip of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 13a, the binding portion 33 assumes the folded posture shown in FIG. 1(a). The predetermined length of the binding portion 33 is approximately the same as the distance between the open edge 12 of the first plate-like member 10 and the fastener 13a. In this way, by joining the fastener 34 of the binding portion 33 to the fastener 13a, the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30 can be maintained in a folded posture in which they are stacked. In addition, in the folded posture shown in FIG. 1(a), the fastener 13b is covered and hidden by the binding portion 33.

[0043] 2(b), an opaque film 36 for forming a storage section 35 is attached to the front surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30. The opaque film 36 has a size that is approximately half the size of the front surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30. One long side 36a and both short sides 36b, 36d of the opaque film 36 are joined to the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10.

[0044] Therefore, the other long side 36c of the opaque film 36 is configured to be able to come into contact with and separate from the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 4(a), in the folded position, the long side 36c of the opaque film 36 can be separated from the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30, and, for example, a mobile terminal, earphones, etc. can be inserted between the opaque film 36 and the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30. This allows the mobile terminal, earphones, etc. to be packed together when the board 1 with stand function is carried together with a personal computer, etc.

[0045] 2(a), a whiteboard 37 is attached to the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30. The whiteboard 37 has approximately the same size as the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30.

[0046] As shown in Fig. 2(b), the open edge portion 32 of the second plate-like member 30 has a holder 38 for holding a writing tool T. The holder 38 is configured so that the writing tool T can be inserted therein. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 4(b), the writing tool T for writing characters or the like on the whiteboard 37 can be held by the holder 38.

[0047] In this embodiment, the two fasteners 13a, 13b provided on the first plate-like member 10 and the binding part 33 attached to the second plate-like member 30 and having a connector 34 connectable to each of the two fasteners 13a, 13b constitute the posture maintaining means N. That is, in the posture maintaining means N, a state in which the connector 34 at the tip of the binding part 33 is connected to the fastener 13a corresponds to a folded posture maintaining state in which the folded posture is maintained.

[0048] As described above, in the folded position, the first plate-shaped member 10 is opened relative to the second plate-shaped member 30 to assume the open position. Furthermore, when the first plate-shaped member 10 is rotated relative to the second plate-shaped member 30 using the connection portion 20 as a fulcrum, the surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30 come to face each other, as shown in FIG. 5.

[0049] In this state, as shown in Figure 6, by folding the binding portion 33 toward the surface 30a of the second plate-like member 30 at the open edge portion 32 of the second plate-like member 30 and joining the connector 34 at the tip of the binding portion 33 to the fastener 13b, when the open edge portion 12 of the first plate-like member 10 and the open edge portion 32 of the second plate-like member 30 are placed on the ground surface, the open edge portion 12 and the open edge portion 32 can be prevented from moving away from each other.

[0050] That is, in addition to the folded and open positions described above, the board with stand function 1 of this embodiment can take a free-standing position in which the surface 10a of the first plate-like member 10 and the surface 30a of the second plate-like member 30 face each other, and the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30 face each other across the connection portion 20, as shown in Figures 5 and 6. Thus, in the free-standing position, the connection edge portion 11 of the first plate-like member 10 and the connection edge portion 31 of the second plate-like member 30 are disposed at substantially the same position, and the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30 are disposed so as to intersect at that position. In the free-standing position, the back surface 30b of the second plate-like member 30 to which the whiteboard 37 is attached faces the installation surface. Angle θ To tilt become.

[0051] In this embodiment, in the posture maintaining means N, the state in which the joint 34 at the tip of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 13b corresponds to an independent maintaining state in which the independent posture is maintained.

[0052] An example of how the board with stand function 1 of this embodiment is used will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0053] (Usage example 1) In the board 1 with stand function, the first plate-like member 10 is opened relative to the second plate-like member 30 to assume an open position, and as shown in Fig. 7(a), the board is placed next to a personal computer so that the whiteboard 37 attached to the rear surface 30b of the second plate-like member 30 faces up, and when, for example, a web conference is held using the personal computer, notes can be taken on the whiteboard 37. In that case, for example, during a web conference, diagrams and the like can be drawn on the whiteboard 37, and explanations can be made using the diagrams and the like drawn on the whiteboard 37 while holding the whiteboard 37 towards the camera.

[0054] (Usage example 2) In the board 1 with stand function, the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are positioned facing each other across the connection part 20 in an independent posture, as shown in Figure 7(b), and the board can be placed next to a personal computer with the whiteboard 37 attached to the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30 facing the front.For example, after holding a web conference using the computer, notes taken during the web conference can be entered into the computer.

[0055] (Usage example 3) In the board 1 with stand function, as shown in FIG. 8(a), the board can be placed next to a personal computer so that the whiteboard 37 attached to the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30 faces the front side as an independent posture in which the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 face each other with the connection portion 20 as a boundary. In this case, as shown in FIG. 8(b), if "WEB conference in progress" is written on the whiteboard 37, for example, when a WEB conference is being held using a personal computer, it is possible to inform people around that a WEB conference is being held. This makes it possible to prevent people around from talking to you while a WEB conference is being held without letting them know that a WEB conference is being held. In addition, in the independent posture, instead of writing "WEB conference in progress" on the whiteboard 37, a piece of paper with "WEB conference in progress" written on it may be stored in the storage unit 14.

[0056] As described above, the board 1 with stand function of this embodiment comprises a first plate-shaped member 10, a second plate-shaped member 30 connected to the first plate-shaped member 10 in an openable and closable manner via the connection part 20, and a posture maintaining means N that can assume a folded posture maintaining state in which the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are folded with the connection part 20 as the boundary, and an independent posture maintaining state in which the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are facing each other with the connection part as the boundary and are independent.

[0057] With this configuration, the posture maintaining means N, which is in a folded posture maintaining state for maintaining the folded posture, can be switched to a self-supporting posture maintaining state for maintaining the self-supporting posture after opening the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30, so that the posture can be easily changed from the folded posture to the self-supporting posture. Therefore, by using the posture maintaining means N for maintaining both the folded posture and the self-supporting posture, it is possible to prevent the board with stand function from opening when being carried in a folded state, for example, without providing separate means for maintaining the folded posture and means for maintaining the self-supporting posture, and therefore the board with stand function can be easily handled.

[0058] In the board 1 with stand function of this embodiment, the posture maintaining means N comprises a plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b provided on the first plate-shaped member 10, and a binding portion 33 attached to the second plate-shaped member 30 and having connectors 34 that can be connected to the plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b, respectively.

[0059] With this configuration, it is possible to easily configure the attitude maintaining means N that is switchable between a folded attitude maintaining state in which the folded attitude is maintained and an independent attitude maintaining state in which the independent attitude is maintained.

[0060] In the board with stand function 1 of this embodiment, a plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b are provided, and the plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b are provided in portions of the first plate-like member 10 spaced apart from the connection portion 20 by different distances from each other.

[0061] With this configuration, by joining the joining tool 34 of the binding portion 33 to any one of the plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b, the folded posture and the free-standing posture can be easily switched.

[0062] In the board with stand function 1 of this embodiment, a plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b are provided, and the plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b are arranged side by side in a direction perpendicular to the connection portion 20 on the first plate-like member 10.

[0063] With this configuration, when the joining tool 34 of the binding part 33 is joined to the fastener 13a of the multiple fasteners 13a, 13b provided near the connection part 20 in the folded posture, the fastener 13b provided at a portion farther from the connection part 20 than the fastener 13a can be covered and hidden by the binding part 33. Therefore, the aesthetic appearance in the folded posture can be improved.

[0064] In the board 1 with stand function of this embodiment, in the folded position, the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10 faces the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30, and in the free-standing position, the front surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10 faces the front surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30, a storage section 14 is provided on the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10, and a whiteboard 37 is provided on the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30.

[0065] With this configuration, the whiteboard 37 or the storage section 14 is positioned between the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 in the folded position, so that the whiteboard 37 or the storage section 14 can be protected when the board 1 with stand function is carried in the folded position.

[0066] In the board with stand function 1 of this embodiment, the storage section 14 is formed of a transparent material.

[0067] With this configuration, it is possible to easily check what is stored in the storage section 14.

[0068] In the stand-function-equipped board 1 of this embodiment, the second plate-shaped member 30 has a holder 38 for holding a writing instrument T.

[0069] With this configuration, for example, by holding a writing implement T for writing on the whiteboard 37 by the holder 38, the writing implement T can be carried together with the board 1 with stand function.

[0070] Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the configuration of the embodiment is not limited to the above, and various modifications are possible.

[0071] For example, in the above embodiment, the posture maintaining means N is described as having a plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b provided on the first plate-shaped member 10 and a binding portion 33 attached to the second plate-shaped member 30 and having connecting members 34 that can be connected to the plurality of fasteners 13a, 13b, respectively, but the configuration of the posture maintaining means N is arbitrary. In other words, the posture maintaining means N needs to be capable of assuming a folded posture maintaining state in which the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are maintained in a folded posture with the connection portion 20 as the boundary, and an independent posture maintaining state in which the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are opposed to each other with the connection portion 20 as the boundary and independent.

[0072] In the above embodiment, the fasteners 13a and 13b are described as snap buttons (hooks), but the present invention is not limited thereto. Specifically, the fasteners 13a and 13b provided on the first plate-like member 10 may have engagement holes, and the fasteners 34 of the binding portion 33 may have engagement parts that are inserted into the engagement holes of the fasteners 13a and 13b. In this case, the fasteners 34 and the fasteners 13a and 13b can be joined by inserting and hooking the engagement parts of the fasteners 34 of the binding portion 33 into the engagement holes of the fasteners 13a and 13b.

[0073] Also, the fasteners 13a, 13b and the connector 34 may be joined by magnetic attraction, with one being made of a magnet and the other being made of a ferromagnetic material, or with both being made of magnets.

[0074] Furthermore, the posture maintaining means N may be composed of an elongated hook-and-loop fastener 113 provided on the first plate-like member 10, and a fastening portion 133 attached to the second plate-like member 30 and having a substantially rectangular hook-and-loop fastener 134 that can be joined to the hook-and-loop fastener 113, as shown in Figure 9.

[0075] In this way, the configuration implementing the attitude maintaining means N only needs to be detachable, and it is possible to select and implement an appropriate one.

[0076] In the above embodiment, the two fasteners 13a, 13b are provided on the first plate-like member 10 side by side in a direction perpendicular to the connection portion 20, but the number and arrangement of the fasteners are arbitrary. For example, the number of fasteners may be one, or three or more.

[0077] For example, as shown in FIG. 10(a), three fasteners 213a, 213b, and 213c may be arranged in the first plate-like member 10 in a direction perpendicular to the connection portion 20. The predetermined length of the binding portion 33 is approximately the same as the distance between the open edge portion 12 of the first plate-like member 10 and the fastener 213a. In this case, the distance between the open edge portion 12 of the first plate-like member 10 and the open edge portion 32 of the second plate-like member 30 in the self-supporting posture can be changed between a case where the joining tool 34 at the tip of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 213b to form a self-supporting posture and a case where the joining tool 34 at the tip of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 213c to form a self-supporting posture, thereby changing the manner in which the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30 are opened. FIG. 10(b) shows a state in which the joining tool 34 at the tip of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 213c to form a self-supporting posture. In this case, in the free-standing posture, the inclination (θ) of the rear surface 30b of the second plate-like member 30 to which the whiteboard 37 is attached with respect to the installation surface is the same as that in the above embodiment. Attitude It becomes smaller.

[0078] In the above embodiment, the binding portion 33 of the board with stand function 1 has a predetermined length, but is not limited thereto. The binding portion 333 of the board with stand function 301 may have a length adjustment portion 333a for adjusting the length, as shown in FIG. 11(a), and may be configured so that the length of the binding portion 333 can be changed. In that case, as shown in FIG. 11(b), by lengthening the length of the binding portion 333 by the length adjustment portion 333a, the distance between the open edge portion 12 of the first plate-like member 10 and the open edge portion 32 of the second plate-like member 30 in the self-supporting position can be changed, thereby changing the manner in which the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30 are opened. In that case, in the self-supporting position, the inclination (θ) of the back surface 30b of the second plate-like member 30 to which the whiteboard 37 is attached with respect to the installation surface is set to θ ... Attitude The number of fasteners provided on the first plate-shaped member 10 may be one.

[0079] 11(b), when changing the distance between the open edge 12 of the first plate-like member 10 and the open edge 32 of the second plate-like member 30 in the self-supporting posture, the length adjustment unit 333a for adjusting the length of the binding portion 333 may have any configuration. Also, by appropriately changing the length of the binding portion 333 using the length adjustment unit 333a, the distance between the open edge 12 and the open edge 32 can be changed arbitrarily, and the inclination of the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30 relative to the installation surface in the self-supporting posture can be changed arbitrarily.

[0080] In the above embodiment, a case was described in which the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30 face each other in the folded position, and the front surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the front surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30 face each other in the free-standing position, but this is not limited to this.

[0081] For example, in the folded position, the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30 may face each other, and in the free-standing position, the back surface 10b of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30 may face each other, as shown in Figure 12.

[0082] That is, in the above embodiment, when the connector 34 at the tip of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 13b to give it a self-supporting position, the first plate-shaped member 10 passes through an open position from a folded position, and is then rotated relative to the second plate-shaped member 30 using the connection portion 20 as a fulcrum so that the surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10 faces the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30, and the binding portion 33 is bent toward the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30 at the open edge portion 32 of the second plate-shaped member 30, and the connector 34 of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 13b.

[0083] In contrast, in this modified example, when the connector 34 at the tip of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 13b to give it a self-supporting position, the first plate-shaped member 10 is rotated from the folded position relative to the second plate-shaped member 30, using the connection portion 20 as a fulcrum, but before it reaches the open position, the binding portion 33 is folded at the open edge portion 32 of the second plate-shaped member 30 toward the back surface 30b of the second plate-shaped member 30, and the connector 34 of the binding portion 33 is joined to the fastener 13b.

[0084] The board with stand function 1 of the above embodiment and the board with stand function 401 of this modification have substantially the same configurations of the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30, but the joining method between the joining tool 34 of the binding part 33 and the fastener 13b when the board is in a self-supporting position is different. Therefore, in the board with stand function 401 of this modification, the back surface 10b of the first plate-like member 10 and the back surface 30b of the second plate-like member 30 face each other, and the board can take a self-supporting position in which the first plate-like member 10 and the second plate-like member 30 face each other across the connection part 20. At that time, the surface 10a of the first plate-like member 10 and the surface 30a of the second plate-like member 30 become the outer surfaces, and as shown in FIG. 12(b), a whiteboard 37 is attached to the surface 30a of the second plate-like member 30 instead of the storage part 36.

[0085] As in this modification, a whiteboard 37 may be provided on at least one of the surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30. In that case, since the whiteboard 37 is arranged on the outer surfaces of the first plate-shaped member and the second plate-shaped member in the folded position, the whiteboard 37 can be used in the folded position without opening the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30. Also, in this modification, a storage section may be provided on at least one of the surface 10a of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the surface 30a of the second plate-shaped member 30, similar to the storage section 36 in the above embodiment. In that case, since the storage section is arranged on the outer surface of the first plate-shaped member 10 or the second plate-shaped member 30 in the folded position, when the board with stand function 401 is carried in the folded position, a mobile terminal, earphones, etc. can be stored and carried together with a personal computer, etc.

[0086] In the above embodiment, the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 are not configured to be able to attract a magnet, but at least one of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 may be configured to be able to attract a magnet. In that case, for example, documents can be attached to the first plate-shaped member 10 or the second plate-shaped member 30 by the magnet.

[0087] In the above embodiment, the storage section 14 is formed of the transparent film 16, but this is not limited thereto. For example, the storage section 14 may be formed of an opaque member. In addition, the storage section 14 is not limited to being formed of the transparent film 16, and the configuration of the storage section 14 is arbitrary. In addition, in the above embodiment, the storage section 35 is formed of the opaque film 36, but this is not limited thereto. For example, the storage section 35 may be formed of a transparent member. In addition, the storage section 35 is not limited to being formed of the opaque film 36, and the configuration of the storage section 35 is arbitrary.

[0088] In the above embodiment, the second plate-shaped member 30 has a holder 38 for holding a writing instrument T, but is not limited thereto. At least one of the first plate-shaped member 10 and the second plate-shaped member 30 may have a holder 38 for holding a writing instrument T. In addition, the board with stand function of the present invention does not need to have a holder 38 for holding a writing instrument T.

[0089] In the present invention, the first plate-shaped member 10, the connection portion 20 and the second plate-shaped member 30 may be made of any material.

[0090] Other configurations can also be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit of the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
