Description

  The present invention relates to a book in which characters or drawings are written or printed and bound into one book.

Books such as novels and weekly / monthly magazines are read not only at home but also in the car when commuting, for example. )).
For example, in the case of a book that reads from the right line to the left line, (1) Hold the page you have read so far with your right thumb and other four fingers, and the remaining page with your left thumb and other four fingers. (2) When the left and right pages have been read, the left and right thumbs only slightly as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. By shifting to the left side, one piece of paper (left page) is opened, and the half-worn paper piece is received by the thumb of the right hand and held between the thumb of the right hand and the other four fingers.
However, with conventional books, if the amount of shifting the thumb of the left hand is wrong, two or three pieces of paper are rolled at once, and if the pieces of paper are electrostatically attached to each other, the pieces of paper cannot be rolled well. There's a problem. This problem is experienced even by young healthy people, but it is very painful for elderly people and people with disabilities who like to read and have a weak sense of fingers.
In addition, in order to solve the above problem, a book in which the edges of the pages are staggered has been proposed (Patent Document 1). However, according to this means, the paper pieces are thin, and the edges are not easily turned. It is clear that a short period of time will be lost.

With the book of the present invention, even a person who has a reduced sense of fingers can be surely paged one by one.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 is a front view of a book F according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the vicinity of the binding portion 4 in the book F, FIG. 3 is a schematic front view showing a state when reading the book F, FIG. Is an explanatory diagram when turning the page of the book, FIG. 5 is a schematic front view showing a state when reading the book F after turning the page, FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram when turning the page again, and FIG. The schematic front view of the state when reading the book F after scrambling is shown.
The book F of this embodiment has the following configuration.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the book F of this embodiment is formed by binding a plurality of paper pieces 3 between the front and back covers 1 and 2, and adjacent paper pieces 3, 3 are partially bonded 5 alternately in the upper region and the lower region in the vicinity of the binding portion 4.
Here, the position of the partial adhesion 5 in the left-right direction is more specifically between “binding portion 4” and “character, drawing or photo arrangement area 6 (hereinafter referred to as character arrangement area 6)”. The position above the partial bond 5 is “above the center line L in the vertical direction”, and the position below the partial bond 5 is “below the center line L in the vertical direction”. Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the partial adhesion 5 is in the vicinity of the uppermost part or the lowermost part of the paper piece 3, and the number thereof is one.
Next, the book F of this embodiment (book read from the right row to the left row) operates as follows.
Also in this book F, “an act of maintaining an open state” and “an act of turning a page (paper piece)” are alternately performed, but the mechanism of “an act of turning a page (paper piece)” is completely different.
(1) FIG. 3 shows a state where an “act of maintaining an open state” is being performed. In this state, the left and right thumbs do not enter the “character arrangement area 6” area, and all characters can be read. In addition, although what was shown by the code | symbol 5 is the site | part of the partial adhesion | attachment 5 as mentioned above, it does not function at all in this state.
(2) Move the right hand from the state of FIG. 3 to the right as shown by the arrow as shown in FIG. Then, the upper part of the left page bonded to the right page is pulled to the right side through the part of the partial adhesion 5, and the left page is detached from the thumb of the left hand by tilting as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. In this case, a space K is formed in the vicinity of the binding portion 4 as the first stage in which the twist occurs. By continuing this operation, the left page is in a half-turned state as shown by the one-dot chain line in FIG. The paper piece 3 that has been half-stripped is received with the thumb of the right hand and sandwiched between the thumb of the right hand and the other four fingers, and as shown in FIG. 5, the book F is “an act of maintaining an open state”. .
(3) Move the right hand from the state of FIG. 5 to the right as shown by the arrow as shown in FIG. Then, the lower part of the left page bonded to the right page via the partial bond 5 is pulled to the right side, and the left page is detached from the thumb of the left hand, as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. The space K is formed in the vicinity of the binding portion 4 as the first step in which the image is generated). By continuing this operation, the left page is in a half-turned state as shown by the one-dot chain line in FIG. The paper piece 3 that has been semi-wrinkled is received by the right thumb and held between the thumb of the right hand and the other four fingers, and as shown in FIG. 7, the book F is "an act of maintaining an open state". .
(4) The book F can be read continuously by repeating the above (1) to (3).
Subsequently, since the book F of this embodiment has the above-described action, it is apparent that the book F works as follows.
Hold the page you have read so far with your right thumb and other four fingers, and the remaining page with your left thumb and other four fingers. Keeping this state, simply moving the right hand to the right side from this state, the left piece of paper 30 (left page) is in a half-turned state. The delicate work of opening the piece of paper (left page) becomes unnecessary.
Here, in this book F, since the space K is formed in the vicinity of the binding portion 4 as the first stage in which the curl occurs, even if the paper pieces 3 and 3 are electrostatically adhered to each other, There is no situation where you cannot speak well.
Therefore, according to this book F, even a healthy person as well as a person with a reduced sense of fingers can be surely paged one by one.
(5) Subsequently, in the configuration of this book F, for example, when reading the book F with the book F placed on a desk, or when reading the book F while lying on its back, ) Even if you have a disability, you can page smoothly.
When taking the action of “maintaining the open state” of the book F, as shown in FIG. 8, the remaining paper piece 3 that has not been read is held in a normal manner (pinched with the thumb and other four fingers) and read. Hold the finished piece 3 with a fist. When reading the contents of a book, the fist may be moved from the position to be read.
In the case of taking an “act of turning a page (paper piece)”, as shown in FIG. 9, the vicinity of the upper area where the left and right pages are partially bonded 5 is pressed down with a fist. Then, the page can be smoothly turned by the same mechanism as described above. In addition, when turning a page continuously, as shown in FIG. 10, the vicinity of the lower region where the left and right pages are bonded may be pressed.
(Other)
The book F of the above embodiment is read from the right line to the left line, but it should be understood that it may be read from the left to the right.
The book F mentioned here includes all of the books and drawings that are written or printed and bound together.
Further, the partial adhesion position can be appropriately changed with respect to the vertical dimension of the book F.
Further, the position of the partial adhesion 5 between the paper pieces 3 and 3 is preferably set so as to gradually move away from the binding portion 4 from the front side to the back side of the book. As a result, even for a book F with a large thickness, it is possible to smoothly turn pages in the range from the front side to the back side.
The difference between the book F and the conventional book is that, as described above, the adjacent paper pieces 3, 3 are partially bonded 5 alternately in the upper area and the lower area in the vicinity of the binding section 4. The timing for applying the material for partial adhesion 5 to the paper piece 3 in the production of the book F may be performed at the time of printing the character arrangement area 6 or the like on the paper piece 3 or immediately before bookbinding.
