So far there are only wall planners with the option to make entries , which can be laid out for a year and then thrown away as needed.

The object of this invention is to present appointments clearly over many years and, in addition, to attach markings clearly for several years using plugs.

The term Indian can be embossed and stamped from metal or molded from plastic.

It consists of two panels placed one above the other and joined together, the surfaces of which are provided with raised guide lines or bulges.

The lower board (a) is against the wall and has horizontal guide lines (b) raised inwards that guide the day/year chips; that is, they separate the days from each other. This means that there is a guide line (rail) at the top edge of the 2nd day and at the bottom edge of the 2nd day of the month, at the top edge of the 3rd day of all months of the year, etc. The chips are guided between them (c).

The upper panel (d) is printed and shows the day numbers (e) on the left side, which run vertically downwards, and the month names (f) which run horizontally. To the right of the numbers and under the month names are the day fields (g). The day fields are individually recessed and have a slot (h) on their left side that does not quite reach the day field wall (9), through which the chip or chip strip is passed. To the left of the slot there is a bridge (v) to which a second recess (j) is connected. However, this recess is not as deep as the day field (g); because the chip 5»«&bgr; church of the S^hIi** VUl^e? 4er zuaiten Einbueh—

This recess is filled with soft but firm material, e.g. Styrofoam, balsa wood, and serves as a pin field for the appointment plugs.

Each day has a pin field and a daily chip field on the board. The board therefore has 2x3/2 holes (or 2x365).

Secn.ng through the depressions g and j, a network of raised grooves (positive embossing) is created, into whose horizontal grooves the lower panel with its horizontal guide lines (rails) (b) fits. The guide lines of the lower panel (b) are, however, higher and somewhat narrower than the gaps between the day fields (i) of the upper panel, so that the guide lines can be fitted into one another. This creates a hollow space between the two panels a and d. This hollow space serves as a guide space (c) for the chips.

Above the month name, the coming year numbers (k) are lined up and can be removed. If the planner is made of metal, the year numbers are magnetic; if it is made of plastic, the year numbers are given an adhesive that holds the number holders (k) like a magnet and can also be removed from the planner in this way. Each year number is given its own color, which is important for clear use. This color shows the respective year in the day field.

To the left of the years listed there is a field with the text "Valid year"(l). The current year is entered here.

To the left of the day numbers there is a wide board edge (o) on which there is a field with "parking" spikes, i.e. a field with a soft surface (m) (styrofoam, balsa wood, etc.). This field is also indented.

Underneath this field there is an explanation board (n) with the shape and color of the chips shown, which only need to be explained. The wide board edge (o) is also necessary in order to be able to guide the day/year chips under the board surface so that they do not stick out on the left side.

It is made of plastic and must be able to be written on. Its right half is the note area (p), on the upper and lower narrow side surfaces of which there is a springy plastic chip (q). They are there to prevent the visible tag from accidentally slipping back into the board and also clamp the chip in the ÄÜBbüGncüfiy \y + t) .

The front end (r) serves as a guide piece and can be inserted into another chip, as the day/year chip is hollow under its note area (p). If the guide piece is inserted into the hollow note area, both chips are connected by a flexible barb (s) in the middle of the guide piece. They can no longer be removed. If the valid day has expired, the expired chip is folded over at point u. If 5 years are to be included in the planner, 5 day/year chips are connected one after the other, corresponding to the following years.

Using the planner:

The desired years are placed next to each other on the planner. The most recent, valid one is placed in the "Valid year" field. This number shows, for example, the year "1990". It is green. Next to it are the years 1991 blue, 1992 black, 1993 red and 1994 yellow.

The day/year chips each have a border that represents the respective year. For example, red border for the year 1993.

If the planner is to be filled with five years, five day/year chips = 5 years for one day in the planner are put together as a plug-in strip from left to right. This means that the year 1994 (yellow) is put together with the year 1993 (red), etc. Green is the first color that is visible in the text field with 1990 and is therefore valid. The corresponding week name is printed in small letters on the chip in abbreviation 'in other information/ which matches the corresponding day of the month.

Now this rod with the 5 chips is inserted into the slot (h) for the corresponding day of the month. The two barbs (u) on the edge of the chips must be pressed together until the last chip (1990) comes to rest in the recess (g). The springy plastic chips on this last/first chip push against the slot bar (t).

Since the individual chips can no longer be separated, they have a groove (u) at the transition between the writing field and the insertion area, which allows the chip to be easily separated by folding it over. It is broken off when the day, week, month or, depending on your preference, the year is over. The following chip shows the next year 1991 in blue.

If notes are made for the next few years, it is sufficient to pull out the chips for the corresponding day under the corresponding month and write them on the surface, e.g. yellow for 1994. The chip strip is then pushed back under the board. Individual chips can also be used, as the chip neck (r) extends deep enough into the board and is clamped in at the side.

So that important dates for the following years can be seen at a glance, there are pins that can be inserted into the respective date field in the pin area provided for this purpose (j). The pins have the corresponding year color.

The spikes are shown on the edge of the planner with their corresponding shapes and colors (n). Next to them is a note field in which the meaning of the spikes is explained. A number of "free" spikes are waiting to be used in a pin field (m).

For one year, 372 chips are needed, and for five years, 1,860 chips with the corresponding week names are needed. When printing the chips, care must be taken to ensure that holidays, Sundays and other occasions are assigned the correct names.
