Embodiments for Carrying out the Invention

[0013] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. <1. First Embodiment> The hanging tool according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. FIG. 1 is a plan view of the hanging tool according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. The hanging tool according to the present embodiment has a second surface M2 on the side opposite to the first surface M1, but the front view on the first surface M1 side and the rear view on the second surface M2 side are substantially the same. Therefore, FIG. 1 is the front view on the first surface M1 side, and the rear view on the second surface M2 side is omitted.

[0014] As shown in FIG. 1, the hanging tool 1 according to the present embodiment is composed of a base material 10 having a first surface M1 and a second surface M2 on the side opposite to the first surface M1. The base material 10 has a structure in which a first piece 11, a connecting piece 15, and a second piece 12 are connected in this order. In the base material 10, a first folding planned line F1 and a second folding planned line F2, which are two folding planned lines, are formed. The first folding planned line F1 is the boundary between the first piece 11 and the connecting piece 15, and the second folding planned line F2 is the boundary between the second piece 12 and the connecting piece 15. By forming the first folding planned line F1 and the second folding planned line F2, the base material 10 is divided into three parts: the first piece 11, the connecting piece 15, and the second piece 12.

[0015] X and Y shown in FIG. 1 are axes indicating directions in a two-dimensional plane. In the example of FIG. 1, the short side direction of the base material 10 is parallel to the X axis, and the long side direction is parallel to the Y axis. Hereinafter, the positional relationship of each part may be described using the X direction and the Y direction. The same applies to other figures.

[0016] The outer edge of the base material 10 has a first edge 21 which is the end on the side of the first piece 11, a second edge 22 which is the end on the side opposite to the first edge 21, and two side edges extending in the direction connecting the first edge 21 and the second edge 22. The two side edges are divided into a first side edge 23 and a second side edge 24 which are the two side edges of the first piece 11, a third side edge 25 and a fourth side edge 26 which are the two side edges of the second piece 12, and a fifth side edge 27 and a sixth side edge 28 which are the two side edges of the connecting piece 15. The first edge 21 on the side of the first piece 11 and the second edge 22 on the side of the second piece 12 are the edges located above when the object is suspended.

[0017] The first side edge 23 of the first piece 11 includes a first part 23a of the first side edge where the distance between the first side edge 23 and the second side edge 24 becomes closer as it approaches the second piece 12. Also, the second side edge 24 of the first piece 11 includes a first part 24a of the second side edge where the distance between the first side edge 23 and the second side edge 24 becomes closer as it approaches the second piece 12. And the first side edge 23 of the first piece 11 includes a second part 23b of the first side edge that is continuous with the first edge 21 and has a part parallel to the second side edge 24. Also, the second side edge 24 of the first piece 11 includes a second part 24b of the second side edge that is continuous with the first edge 21 and has a part parallel to the first side edge 23.

[0018] The third side edge 25 of the second piece 12 includes a first part 25a of the third side edge where the distance between the third side edge 25 and the fourth side edge 26 becomes closer as it approaches the first piece 11. Also, the fourth side edge 26 of the second piece 12 includes a first part 26a of the fourth side edge where the distance between the third side edge 25 and the fourth side edge 26 becomes closer as it approaches the first piece 11. And the third side edge 25 of the second piece 12 includes a second part 25b of the third side edge that is continuous with the second edge 22 and has a part parallel to the fourth side edge 26. Also, the fourth side edge 26 of the second piece 12 includes a second part 26b of the fourth side edge that is continuous with the second edge 22 and has a part parallel to the third side edge 25.

[0019] The fifth side edge 27 of the connecting piece 15 connects the first side edge 23 and the third side edge 25. The sixth side edge 28 of the connecting piece 15 connects the second side edge 24 and the fourth side edge 26. In the example of FIG. 1, the fifth side edge 27 and the sixth side edge 28 are parallel to each other.

[0020] The first piece 11 is formed with two through-holes, namely a first through-hole H1 and a second through-hole H2. Further, the second piece 12 is formed with two through-holes, namely a third through-hole H3 and a fourth through-hole H4. All of the four through-holes, i.e., the first through-hole H1, the second through-hole H2, the third through-hole H3, and the fourth through-hole H4, penetrate through the first surface M1 and the second surface M2.

[0021] The first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2 formed in the first piece 11 are preferably located at positions overlapping each other in the y direction. As shown in FIG. 1, it is more preferable that the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2 are located at positions coinciding with each other in the y direction. The third through-hole H3 and the fourth through-hole H4 formed in the second piece 12 are preferably located at positions overlapping each other in the y direction. As shown in FIG. 1, it is more preferable that the third through-hole H3 and the fourth through-hole H4 are located at positions coinciding with each other in the y direction.

[0022] In FIG. 1, the straight line indicated by the broken line extending in the direction connecting the first edge 21 and the second edge 22 is a virtual reference line C1. The first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2 formed in the first piece 11 are preferably formed at positions that are line-symmetrical with respect to the reference line C1 with the reference line C1 interposed therebetween. Further, the third through-hole H3 and the fourth through-hole H4 formed in the second piece 12 are preferably formed at positions that are line-symmetrical with respect to the reference line C1 with the reference line C1 interposed therebetween. In the present embodiment, the reference line C1 is located at the center of the entire substrate 10 in the x direction. Therefore, the suspension tool according to the present embodiment has a shape that is line-symmetrical with respect to the reference line C1. In the example of FIG. 1, the reference line C1 is located at an equal distance from both of the two side edges.

[0023] The first side edge first portion 23a and the second side edge first portion 24a of the first piece 11 have portions where the distance between them gradually decreases toward the second piece 12 side. Further, the third side edge first portion 25a and the fourth side edge first portion 26a of the second piece 12 have portions where the distance between them gradually shortens toward the first piece 11 side.

[0024] The first piece 11 has a first notch K1 that is continuous from the first side edge 23 to the first through hole H1, and a second notch K2 that is continuous from the second side edge 24 to the second through hole H2. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the first notch K1 is continuous from the first side edge 23 of the first piece 11 to the first through hole H1. Also, the second notch K2 is continuous from the second side edge 24 of the first piece 11 to the second through hole H2.

[0025] The shapes of the first notch K1 and the second notch K2 are not particularly limited. For example, each may be a single straight line from each side edge to each through hole, or may be curved. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the first notch K1 and the second notch K2 have a shape in which a portion extending along the x direction from the side edge, a curved portion whose direction changes from the x direction to the y direction, and a portion extending along the y direction and reaching the through hole are continuous.

[0026] As shown in FIG. 1, the first notch K1 and the second notch K2 are preferably in a shape that is line-symmetrical with respect to the reference line C1. However, they are not limited to being line-symmetrical with each other, and the first notch K1 and the second notch K2 may have different shapes from each other. For example, either one of the first notch K1 and the second notch K2 may be a straight line and the other may be a curve.

[0027] The first notch K1 and the second notch K2 are connected to the end where the distance between the first through hole H1 and the second through hole H2 is the shortest. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the first notch K1 is connected to the end of the first through hole H1 closest to the second through hole H2, and the second notch K2 is connected to the end of the second through hole H2 closest to the first through hole H1.

[0028] As described above, the base material 10 has a connecting piece 15 between the first piece 11 and the second piece 12. The connecting piece 15 is separated from the first piece 11 and the second piece 12 by a first folding line F1 and a second folding line F2 formed on the base material 10. By having the connecting piece 15, when the first folding line F1 and the second folding line F2 are bent, the first through hole H1 and the second through hole H2 in the first piece 11 and the third through hole H3 and the fourth through hole H4 in the second piece 12 can be easily overlapped. As a result, there is an effect of dispersing the load applied to the holes of the first through hole H1 to the fourth through hole H4 and increasing the strength of the lifting tool 1. In the present embodiment, the first folding line F1 and the second folding line F2 are realized by printing. In the example of FIG. 1, the concave part of the printing is located on the first surface M1 side, and the convex part of the printing is located on the second surface M2 side. When using the lifting tool, the first folding line F1 and the second folding line F2 are bent with the second surface M2 side facing inward. As the first folding line F1 and the second folding line F2, any form may be used as long as it assists the folding of the first piece 11 and the second piece 12 with respect to the connecting piece 15. For example, it may be a continuous cut that does not penetrate the base material from one surface to the other surface. It may also be a perforation. Further, it may be only indicated that it is a folding line by printing or the like. However, considering the strength aspect, it is preferable to realize the first folding line F1 and the second folding line F2 by printing as in the present embodiment.

[0029] Further, the lifting tool may be configured not to have the connecting piece 15. In the case of a configuration without the connecting piece 15, the first piece 11 and the second piece 12 are separated by a single folding line.

[0030] In the example of FIG. 1, at the intersection of the first side edge 23 and the second side edge 24, the extending directions of the first cut K1 and the second cut K2 are perpendicular to the extending directions of the first side edge 23 and the second side edge 24 (the vertical direction in FIG. 1), and parallel to the extending directions of the first edge 21 and the second edge 22 (the horizontal direction in FIG. 1). At the intersection of the first side edge 23 and the second side edge 24, the extending directions of the first cut K1 and the second cut K2 (the horizontal direction in FIG. 1) preferably intersect the paper grain direction (the vertical direction in FIG. 1), and more preferably are perpendicular thereto. By the extending directions of the first cut K1 and the second cut K2 at the intersection of the first side edge 23 and the second side edge 24 being perpendicular to the paper grain, there is an effect of increasing the strength of both sides of the first cut K1 and the second cut K2.

[0031] FIG. 2 is a plan view showing the dimensions of each part of the suspension tool according to the first embodiment. Similar to FIG. 1, FIG. 2 is a plan view seen from the first surface M1 side. In order to avoid complication of the drawing, some reference numerals are omitted in FIG. 2. The positional relationship and dimensions of each part can be set as appropriate and are not particularly limited. Here, the preferable positional relationship and dimensions will be described. As shown in FIG. 2, the length L1 in the short side direction (the left - right direction in FIG. 2) of the suspension tool is smaller than the length L2 in the long side direction (the up - down direction in FIG. 2) of the suspension tool. That is, L1 < L2.

[0032] L3 is the distance (the shortest distance) between the first through - hole H1 and the second through - hole H2. The distance between the first through - hole H1 and the second through - hole H2 and the distance between the third through - hole H3 and the fourth through - hole H4 do not necessarily have to be the same. When folding along the folding line to overlap the first piece 11 and the second piece 12, it is sufficient that the first through - hole H1 and the third through - hole H3, and the second through - hole H2 and the fourth through - hole H4 are formed so that at least a part thereof overlaps. In the examples of FIGS. 1 and 2, the distance between the first through - hole H1 and the second through - hole H2 is also the same as the distance between the third through - hole H3 and the fourth through - hole H4, which is L3.

[0033] There is no particular limitation on the distance L3 between the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2 either. However, the distance L3 is preferably greater than half of the length L1 in the short side direction of the suspension tool 1. That is, it is preferably smaller than L1 / 2. If the distance L3 between the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2 is too large with respect to the length L1 in the short side direction of the suspension tool 1, the distance from the through-hole to the side edge becomes relatively short, and a load is likely to be applied near the side edge.

[0034] L4 is the length of the connecting piece 15 in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of the base material 10. In the example of FIG. 2, L4 is the length in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction (y direction, the vertical direction in FIG. 2) of the base material 10. L5 is the diameter of the through-hole. The diameter of the through-hole means the maximum distance between two points on the outer periphery of the through-hole. When the shape of the through-hole is a circle as in FIG. 2, L5 is the diameter of the through-hole. It is preferable that the shapes and sizes of the four through-holes are the same, but they do not necessarily have to be the same. In the example of FIG. 2, the shapes of the first through-hole H1, the second through-hole H2, the third through-hole H3, and the fourth through-hole H4 are all circular, and the sizes are also the same.

[0035] L6 is the longest distance between the outer peripheries of the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2. In this case, the relationship between the shortest distance L3 between the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2 and the diameter L5 of the through-hole is L6 = L3 + 2×L5. In the example of FIG. 2, in this case, the longest distance L6 between the outer peripheries of the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2 is smaller than the length L4 of the connecting piece 15. That is, the relationship L6 < L4 is satisfied. This means that in the short side direction (x direction) of the base material 10 in FIG. 2, the outer ends of the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2 are both inside (closer to the reference line C1) than the fifth side edge 27 and the sixth side edge 28 of the connecting piece 15.

[0036] The relationship with the length L1 in the short side direction of the base material 10 will be described. The length of half of the length L1 in the short side direction of the base material 10 is longer than the distance (shortest distance) L3 between the outer peripheries of the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2, and shorter than the longest distance (L3 + 2×L5) between the outer peripheries of the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2. That is, the relationship L3 < L1 / 2 < (L3 + 2×L5) is satisfied.

[0037] L7 is the length of the first piece 11 in the longitudinal direction of the base material 10. L8 is the length of the second piece 12 in the longitudinal direction of the base material 10. L9 is the length of the connecting piece 15 in the longitudinal direction of the base material 10. Therefore, the sum of the length L7, the length L8, and the length L9 is equal to the length L2 in the longitudinal direction of the base material 10. That is, L7 + L8 + L9 = L2. In the example of FIG. 2, the length L7 of the first piece 11 in the longitudinal direction of the base material 10 is equal to the length L8 of the second piece 12 in the longitudinal direction of the base material 10. That is, L7 = L8. Also, the length L7 and the length L8 are preferably greater than the maximum length L1 in the transverse direction of the base material 10. That is, it is preferable that L7 > L1 and L8 > L1.

[0038] Although the shape and size of the hanging tool can be appropriately designed, for example, L1 = 45, L2 = 95, L3 = 19.35, L4 = 30, L5 = 5, L6 = 29.35, L7 = 44, L8 = 44, L9 = 7 (unit: mm) can be set.

[0039] As the base material constituting the hanging tool according to the present embodiment, various materials can be used as long as it can be bent using the first folding planned line F1 and the second folding planned line F2, and a string can be passed through the first cut K1 and the second cut K2. For example, resins such as synthetic resins and paper can be used. The hanging tool according to the present embodiment can also be made of paper. Therefore, in consideration of the impact on the natural environment, it is preferable to use paper for the base material 10. Since the hanging tool according to the present embodiment passes a string through the tear of the first piece 11 due to the first cut K1 and the second cut K2, it preferably has flexibility so that both sides of the first cut K1 and the second cut K2 are bent.

[0040] The flexible paper may be a laminate of multiple sheets of paper, or may be a single sheet of paper. There is no particular limitation on the paper quality, but it is preferable to use a high-quality paperboard with a basis weight of 310 g / m 2 ~360 g / m 2 or its equivalent. As a preferable example, "High Lucky (manufactured by Hokuriku Corporation)" with a basis weight of 310 g / m2 can be used.

[0041] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the hanging tool is created by forming a first through hole H1, a second through hole H2, a third through hole H3, a fourth through hole H4, a first notch K1, a second notch K2, a first folding planned line F1, and a second folding planned line F2 on a base material having the above-described structure, and then cutting it out along the outer edge.

[0042] <1.2. Description of the usage state> When using the hanging tool, the string R of the display item P is passed through the third through hole H3 and the fourth through hole H4 of the hanging tool 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. Then, by tying the passed string R, etc., the display item P is fixed so that it can be suspended. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a state in which the hanging tool 1 and the display item P are connected through the string R. FIG. 3 shows a state in which the base material 10 is extended without being bent along the first folding planned line F1 and the second folding planned line F2. In FIG. 3, the string R of the display item P is passed through the third through hole H3 from the second surface M2 side (opposite side) of the hanging tool 1, and further passed through the fourth through hole H4 from the first surface M1 side (front side), and the string R is fixed to the display item P by the knot T. In FIG. 3, the knot T is in a state hidden by the second piece 12. In FIG. 3, since the upper part of the first piece 11 is grasped, the first through hole H1 is hidden by the finger.

[0043] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a state in which after the string R of the display item P is passed through and tied to the third through hole H3 and the fourth through hole H4, the first piece 11 is passed through from the opposite side between the wires WR of the wire net. As shown in FIG. 4, it is in a state of being bent along the first folding planned line F1 and the second folding planned line F2 so as to cover the wire WR to be hung from above.

[0044] Furthermore, with the wire WR held down by the connecting piece 15 from above, the first piece 11 passed through to the opposite side is pulled back to the front side from between the wires WR of the wire net. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a state in which the first piece 11 is pulled back to the front side from between the wires WR of the wire net. In FIG. 5, the thick arrow indicates the rotation direction of the first piece 11.

[0045] With the first piece 11 pulled back to the front side of the wire net, the side surface of the string R passing from the fourth through-hole H4 to the second surface M2 side is passed through the second cut K2. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a state where the side surface of the string R passing from the fourth through-hole H4 to the second surface M2 side starts to pass through the second cut K2 from the second side edge 24. Further, the string R is advanced along the second cut K2 to the second through-hole H2. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a state where the string R passing through the second cut K2 reaches the second through-hole H2. As shown in FIG. 7, the string R passed through the fourth through-hole H4 above the drawing is in a state of being passed through the second through-hole H2 below the drawing. After that, in the same manner, the string R is advanced along the first cut K1 to the first through-hole H1.

[0046] With the string R passed through both the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2, the string R is pulled downward to the lower side where the display object P is connected. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a state where the string R is pulled downward with the string R passed through both the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2. As shown in FIG. 8, with the connecting piece 15 hooked on the wire WR, the string R can be suspended from the first piece 11 and the second piece 12. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the state of the hanging tool 1 when the display object P is suspended using the string R. When the hand is released from the state shown in FIG. 8, the weight of the display object P is dispersed and applied to the first piece 11, the second piece 12, and the connecting piece 15 by the string R passing through the four through-holes, and the display object P can be stably suspended.

[0047] <2. Second Embodiment> The hanging tool according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. FIG. 10 is a plan view of the hanging tool according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure. In FIG. 10, the same parts as those in FIG. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted. In the second embodiment, it is different in that a third piece 13 is added to the hanging tool of the first embodiment. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 10, the third piece 13 is connected to the second piece 12 via the third fold line F3. In the hanging tool according to the second embodiment, by having the third piece 13, the load can be dispersed to six through-holes as described later. Therefore, the display object can be suspended more stably.

[0048] The base material 10A has a structure in which the first piece 11, the connecting piece 15, the second piece 12, and the third piece 13 are connected in this order. In the base material 10A, three planned folding lines, namely the first planned folding line F1, the second planned folding line F2, and the third planned folding line F3, are formed. The third planned folding line F3 is the boundary between the second piece 12 and the third piece 13. By forming the first planned folding line F1, the second planned folding line F2, and the third planned folding line F3, the base material 10A is divided into four parts: the first piece 11, the connecting piece 15, the second piece 12, and the third piece 13.

[0049] The outer edge of the base material 10A has a first edge 21 that is the end on the side of the first piece 11, a second edge 22A that is the end on the side opposite to the first edge 21, and two side edges extending in the direction connecting the first edge 21 and the second edge 22A. The two side edges are divided into the first side edge 23 and the second side edge 24 that are the two side edges of the first piece 11, the third side edge 25 and the fourth side edge 26 that are the two side edges of the second piece 12, the fifth side edge 27 and the sixth side edge 28 that are the two side edges of the connecting piece 15, and the seventh side edge 29 and the eighth side edge 30 that are the two side edges of the third piece 13. When suspending the object, the first edge 21 on the side of the first piece 11 and the third planned folding line F3 are located at the uppermost position.

[0050] Two through-holes, namely the fifth through-hole H5 and the sixth through-hole H6, are formed in the third piece 13. Similar to the first through-hole H1, the second through-hole H2, the third through-hole H3, and the fourth through-hole H4, the two through-holes of the fifth through-hole H5 and the sixth through-hole H6 both penetrate the first surface M1 and the second surface M2.

[0051] The fifth through-hole H5 and the sixth through-hole H6 formed in the third piece 13 are preferably located at positions overlapping each other in the y direction. As shown in FIG. 10, it is more preferable that the fifth through-hole H5 and the sixth through-hole H6 are located at positions coinciding with each other in the y direction. As shown in FIG. 10, the fifth through-hole H5 and the sixth through-hole H6 formed in the third piece 13 are preferably formed at positions that are line-symmetric with respect to the reference line C1 with the reference line C1 interposed therebetween.

[0052] The shape of the third piece 13 is substantially rectangular, with only the four corners rounded. The seventh side edge 29 and the eighth side edge 30 of the third piece 13 are along the longitudinal direction of the base material 10 and are parallel to each other.

[0053] Similar to the first folding planned line F1 and the second folding planned line F2, the third folding planned line F3 is realized by a scoring line. In the example of FIG. 10, the concave part of the scoring line is located on the first surface M1 side, and the convex part of the scoring line is located on the second surface M2 side. By having the third piece 13, when the first folding planned line F1, the second folding planned line F2, and the third folding planned line F3 are bent, the first through hole H1 of the first piece 11, the third through hole H3 of the second piece 12, and the fifth through hole H5 of the third piece 13 overlap, and the second through hole H2 of the first piece 11, the fourth through hole H4 of the second piece 12, and the sixth through hole H6 of the third piece 13 overlap. Thereby, the load applied to the first through hole H1 to the sixth through hole H6 is dispersed. For this reason, there is an effect of enhancing the strength of the lifting tool 1A. Similar to the first folding planned line F1 and the second folding planned line F2, the third folding planned line F3 may be in any form as long as it assists in folding the second piece 12 and the third piece 13. For example, it may be a continuous cut that does not penetrate the base material from one surface to the other surface. It may also be a perforation. Also, it may only be indicated by a display showing the folding planned line by printing or the like. However, considering the strength aspect, it is preferable to realize the first folding planned line F1, the second folding planned line F2, and the third folding planned line F3 by a scoring line as in this embodiment.

[0054] Also, similar to the lifting tool 1 in the first embodiment, the lifting tool 1A in the second embodiment may also be configured without the connecting piece 15. In the case of a configuration without the connecting piece 15, the first piece 11 and the second piece 12 are separated by one folding planned line.

[0055] FIG. 11 is a plan view showing the dimensions of each part of the suspension tool according to the second embodiment. FIG. 11 is a plan view seen from the first surface M1 side, similar to FIG. 10. In FIG. 11, parts other than those related to the third piece 13 are the same as FIG. 2 in the first embodiment, so the same reference numerals are given and the description is omitted. In the example of FIG. 11, the fifth through hole H5 and the sixth through hole H6 are circular with a diameter of L5, and have the same shape and size as the third through hole H3 and the fourth through hole H4.

[0056] L10 is the length of the third piece 13 in the longitudinal direction of the base material 10A. Therefore, the sum of the lengths L7, L8, L9, and L10 is equal to the length L2A of the base material 10A in the longitudinal direction. That is, L7 + L8 + L9 + L10 = L2A. Also, the length L10 is preferably smaller than the maximum length L1 in the short direction of the base material 10A. That is, it is preferable that L10 < L1. Although the shape and size of the suspension tool can be designed as appropriate, for example, L1 = 45, L2 = 95, L3 = 19.35, L4 = 30, L5 = 5, L6 = 29.35, L7 = 44, L8 = 44, L9 = 7, L10 = 19.66 (unit: mm).

[0057] L15 is the shortest distance between the third through hole H3, the fourth through hole H4, and the third planned folding line F3. In the example of FIG. 2, the shortest distance between the fifth through hole H5, the sixth through hole H6, and the third planned folding line F3 is also L15 and is the same. The shortest distance between the third through hole H3, the fourth through hole H4, and the third planned folding line F3 and the shortest distance between the fifth through hole H5, the sixth through hole H6, and the third planned folding line F3 do not necessarily have to be the same, as long as at least a part of the through holes overlap when folded along the third planned folding line F3. As shown in FIG. 11, it is preferable that the above shortest distances are both L15 and the same.

[0058] As the base material constituting the suspension tool according to the second embodiment, the same one as in the first embodiment can be used. Therefore, a high-grade paperboard called "Card A" with a basis weight of 310 g / m 2 ~360 g / m 2 or its equivalent is preferably used.

[0059] <Explanation of Use> The use of the hanging tool according to the second embodiment will be described. When using the hanging tool, the string R of the display object P is passed through the third through hole H3 and the fourth through hole H4 of the hanging tool 1 shown in FIGS. 10 and 11. Then, by tying the passed string R or the like, the display object P is fixed so as to be hangable. FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a state in which the hanging tool 1A and the display object P are connected through the string R. FIG. 12 shows a state in which the base material 10A is extended without being bent along the first folding planned line F1 and the second folding planned line F2. In FIG. 12, first, the string R of the display object P is passed through the fifth through hole H5 from the first surface M1 side (front side) of the hanging tool 1A, further passed through the third through hole H3 from the second surface M2 side (opposite side), further passed through the fourth through hole H4 from the first surface M1 side (front side), and further passed through the sixth through hole H6 from the second surface M2 side (opposite side), and the string R is fixed to the display object P by the knot T. Although hidden in the figure, the knot T is formed, for example, near the display object P.

[0060] FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a state in which after the string R of the display object P is passed through and tied to the third through hole H3 to the sixth through hole H6, the first piece 11 is passed through from the opposite side between the wires WR of the wire net. As shown in FIG. 13, it is bent along the second folding planned line F2 so as to cover the wire WR to be hung from above. FIG. 14 is a diagram showing a state in which the first folding planned line F1 is bent to sandwich the wire WR. The thick arrow in FIG. 14 indicates the rotation direction of the first piece 11.

[0061] Furthermore, with the wire WR pressed from above by the connecting piece 15, the first piece 11 passed through to the opposite side is pulled back to the front side from between the wires WR of the wire net. FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a state in which the first piece 11 is pulled back to the front side from between the wires WR of the wire net. Here, it is bent along the third folding planned line F3 to overlap the second piece 12 and the third piece 13. The third piece 13 serves to reinforce the second piece 12.

[0062] With the first piece 11 pulled back to the front side of the wire net, the side surface of the string R passing through the fourth through-hole H4 and the sixth through-hole H6 is passed through the second cut K2. FIG. 16 is a view showing a state in which the side surface of the string R passing through the fourth through-hole H4 and the sixth through-hole H6 starts to pass through the second cut K2 from the second side edge 24 of the first piece 11. Further, the string R is advanced along the second cut K2 to the second through-hole H2. FIG. 17 is a view showing a state in which the string R passing through the second cut K2 has reached the second through-hole H2. As shown in FIG. 17, the string R passed through the fourth through-hole H2 above the drawing is in a state of being passed through the second through-hole H2 below the drawing. After that, similarly, the string R is advanced along the first cut K1 to the first through-hole H1.

[0063] With the string R passed through both the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2, the string R is pulled downward to the lower side where the display object P is connected. FIG. 18 is a view showing a state in which the string R is pulled downward with the string R passed through both the first through-hole H1 and the second through-hole H2. As shown in FIG. 18, with the connecting piece 15 hanging on the wire WR, the string R can be hung on the first piece 11, the second piece 12, and the third piece 13. FIG. 19 is a view showing the state of the hanging tool 1A when the display object P is suspended using the string R. When the hand is released from the state shown in FIG. 18, the weight of the display object P is dispersed and applied to the first piece 11, the second piece 12, the third piece 13, and the connecting piece 15 by the string R passing through the six through-holes, and the display object P can be stably suspended. In the second embodiment, since two through-holes of the third piece 13 are added and the string is suspended by a total of six through-holes, the load can be dispersed more than in the first embodiment. Therefore, it is suitable when using relatively weak paper.
