VIRTUAL IMAGE APPEARING DECORATIVE BODY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a virtual image appearing decorative body which makes an expanded virtual image of the same shape with that of a picture element appear above or below a plane-convex lens-shaped light collecting element layer. SOLUTION: A plane-convex lens-shaped light condensing element layer in which numbers of plane-convex lens-shaped light collecting elements 9 of the same shape and size are arranged horizontally and a picture element layer 14 in which numbers of picture elements 10 of the same shape and size with a transparent substrate layer 13 are arranged horizontally are provided. At least one set of the elements 9 and the elements 10 are laid to completely overlap each other vertically. The light condensing element layer and the layer 14 are arranged so that other picture elements 10 separated at equal distance from overlapping elements 10 are dislocated in the same width toward the outside (or inside) radially around the overlapping picture elements to the elements 9 facing the other picture elements 10 to increase the dislocation width of the picture elements from the center toward the outside so that an expanded virtual image of the same shape with the shape of the picture elements 10 is made to appear above or below the light condensing layer 11.
