Abstract
A desktop film viewer includes a box-shaped structure consisting of a cover member and a main member fitted with each other, a light transmission diffusion plate provided on the cover member, and a light source and reflectors provided in the main member to illuminate the light transmission diffusion plate. The box-shaped structure comprises wedge-shaped side surfaces. At the acute angle edges of the wedge-shaped side surfaces, the main member and the cover member are pivotally connected to each other. The box-shaped structure further comprises foldable linked stays for maintaining the box-shaped structure opened at any angles.
