Definitions

  • the invention relates to a suspendable writing pad assembly comprising a plurality of sheets of paper or of a plastics material each adapted to be written on, said sheets adhering to each other in an area along their top edges and being re­leasable from each other and forming a pad releasably adhering­ly secured to a rear holding sheet. Also, said sheets are adapted to be attached self-adheringly to a plane surface and to be written on after they have been withdrawn from the pad.
  • paper sheets are used for this purpose; they are provided with means such as perforations by which they may be suspended from a stand or the like.
  • the paper sheets may be united by means of a suitable adhesive along their top edges to form a pad.
  • a plurality of sheets of paper or plastic is stacked to form a pad.
  • Each sheet has a self-adhesive tape secured thereto on its top surface along an edge, said tape having a portion which extends beyond and along the respective edge of the sheet and the sheet being separable from that portion together with the adhesive tape secured thereon.
  • the lowermost sheet of the pad rests on a rear hold­ ing sheet having such a length that the outer edges of the portions extending beyond the sheets of the adhesive tapes co­incide with the corresponding edge of the holding sheet.
  • the holding sheet has on its surface ad­jacent the pad a self-adhesive tape by which the pad is secured to the holding sheet.
  • the individual sheets of the pad may be written on before or after they are withdrawn from the pad and may be attached to bulletin boards, telephones, plastic bags, windshields or the like for conveying information.
  • sheets of this kind can be attached a single time only; neither can they be reunited again to form a pad. Also, it is not possible to erase the information written on them by wiping it off.
  • One disadvantage of the aforesaid pad system is that it is un­sightly in appearance in the area of the top edge if the pad comprises a substantial number of sheets. The reason is that three different layer thicknesses are present in that top edge area: the sum thickness of the sheets to be written on, the sum thickness of the sheets and of the adhesive tapes in the over­lap zone, and the thickness of the adhesive alone.
  • ink compositions which may be used in felt-tipped pens or other so-called board marker pens to write on a board or panel of a hard non-porous plastics material and having a smooth surface, with the writings readily wiped from the board surface by means of a fabric or paper cloth.
  • the essential ingredients of ink compositions of this kind include water, a water-soluble coloring material, a silicone component and a release agent in which the water-soluble coloring material is insoluble.
  • clamping means such as clamp strips, magnets, buttons and the like for posting slips of paper and the like.
  • the object underlying the invention is to provide a writing pad assembly of the kind initially specified and useful particu­larly for lecturing halls and the like to provide lecturers in an effective manner with an assembly that handles easily (in the way of the so-called flip charts) and comprises a plurality of film-like sheets from which inscriptions may easily be re­moved, which sheets after having been written on may be sus­pended individually, may be re-suspended elsewhere without sustaining damage, and may be re-united to form an easily-­handled unitary article.
  • this object is accomplished by the sheets being adapted to be self-adhesively affixed to a plane surface a plurality of times and to be re-united repeat­edly to form a pad, by any writings on them being erasable by wiping within a pre-determined period of time, and by the hold­ing sheet having a portion which extends beyond the top edge of the pad and is releasably clampable in clamping means having on its rear surface elements by which the clamping means may be affixed repeatedly to a plane surface in a releasable manner.
  • the clamping means may be a clamping strip of a flexible plastics material and may comprise, for example, two members that are hinged to each other.
  • the members of the clamping device are movable by hand into a clamping position in which they clamp the holding sheet.
  • the elements on the rear surface of the clamping device have the form of fastening or affixing means suited to readily suspend the so-called flip-chart from a vertical surface and to change its position thereon.
  • the aforesaid elements on the rear surface preferably comprise two spaced self-adhesive foam material pads which firmly adhere to the plane surface as the clamping device is pressed onto it and may be withdrawn from and re-affixed to that surface a number of times without being damaged.
  • the sheets preferably are formed from polymer films that are suited for use without additional coatings.
  • the sheets preferably comprise two or three layers each, with two-layer sheets accepting writing on the front surface only and three-layer sheets accepting writing on both the front and the rear surfaces thereof.
  • the film consists of biaxially oriented polypropylene, high-density polyethylene or isotactic polypropylene with an additional coat of polyvinylidene chloride which may be applied to one or both surfaces, with each one of the polymer films being combinable with each one of the other polymer films.
  • An additional acrylic coat may be provided on the rear surface.
  • each one of the front and the rear surfaces comprises a writable sheet made up of the aforesaid polymer films, with the inter­mediate film preferably being polyester, paper, polyvinyl chloride or polycarbonate.
  • the film may also consist of bi-­axially oriented polypropylene having on both sides a coat of ethylene-propylene copolymer.
  • the film may consist of a poly­mer coat on a paper layer.
  • the film may also by opaque or translucent and - like the paper layer - be colored, provided with multi-colored printing, or be left all white.
  • Each sheet of the pad is provided in the area along its top edge with a re-usable adhesive strip which serves as a fasten­ing or affixing means.
  • the said adhesive strip may comprise an adhesive tape double-coated to provide different adhesive strenghts on its two sides.
  • the same effect may be obtained by coating the film with a special adhesive which when used in combination with an adhesion promoting material adheres strong­ly to the coated film surface, but by itself adheres relatively weakly to the rear surface of the film opposite the coated film surface so that the individual films may be withdrawn readily from each other.
  • the film should first be coated with the adhesion promoting material, which will then receive the coat of adhesive.
  • the rear holding sheet preferably is formed of paper and may have therethrough in the portion extending beyond the top edge of the pad a plurality of openings - such as holes or slots in­tersecting in cross shape - to be used for suspending the writing pad assembly.
  • the clamping means may be provided with magnets on the rear surface. For affixing the clamping means to textured surfaces, it may have thistle-cloth means on its rear surface.
  • the pad preferably comprises 20 to 50 or even more sheeets each 15 to 150 ⁇ m and preferably 50 ⁇ m thick. Depending on the nat­ure of the surface, inscriptions on these sheets may be erased by means of a suitable pad or simply by means of a soft paper cloth for a period up to four days, for example, after the time of writing.
  • the size and format of the sheets may be selected in accordance with the intended use; exemplary dimensions are 5 x 5 cm2 to 1.5 x 1.5 m2.
  • the inventive writing pad assembly is space saving in con­struction for easy transport. lts flip-chart portion and the clamping device may be sold and/or shipped separately. After a lecture, the flip-chart portion can readily be rolled up on the clamping strip, for example. After use, the re-usable sheets are readily adhered to each other for joint clamping by the clamping device.
  • the clamping device By means of the clamping device, the inven­tive writing pad assembly may be affixed easily to vertical surfaces or stands; after a lecturer has written on the sheets, they may be grasped and withdrawn from the pad individually to be suspended so that the audience may see them readily.
  • the weight of the writing pad assembly is relatively low so that the adhesive elements provided on the clamping device will safely support the writing pad assembly on a wall or vertical surface. Since the sheets are reusable, the inventive writing pad assembly is cost-effective and may be put to use in an effecient and flexible manner.
  • the sheets of the writing pad assembly may be adhered to and removed from a plane surface re­peatedly.
  • These repositioning properties of the sheets may be realized a number of ways.
  • the sheet material made of paper or a plastics material may be coated with a suitable adhesion promoting material and an adhesive
  • the sheet material made of paper or of a plastics material may be laminated with a so-­called double-coated adhesive tape having different adhesive strengths on its two sides, with the high-adhesion side con­nected firmly with the sheet.
  • repositioning properties may be obtained by a coat of adhesive spots in a raster array pattern.
  • the sheets of the flip-chart portion are easily fastened in the clamping device to hang down freely to be grasped individually.
  • a high-strength adhesive may be used.
  • Fig. 1 shows a plan view of a paper or plastics sheet 1 of the inventive writing pad assembly which is provided in the area along its top edge on the side opposite the surface to be written on with an adhesive strip 3 which allows sheet 1 to be adhered to and removed from a plane surface a number of times without being damaged.
  • Fig. 2 shows a number of sheets 1 of the aforesaid nature as­sembled in an overlying relationship and connected to the adja­cent sheet 1 by adhesive strip 3 along top edge 2 of each sheet 1 so as to form a pad 4.
  • Hold­ing sheet 5 may be paper or a transparent and/or colored poly­mer material such as polypropylene.
  • Holding sheet 5 should be made of a relatively stable or stiff sheet material having a thickness in the range of 50 to 200 ⁇ m so as to impart to the pad sufficient stability and satisfactory handling properties.
  • clamping device 7 On rear surface 8 of clamping device 7, which may comprise two members interengaged in hinge fashion, there are provided af­fixing means such as spaced self-adhesive foam material pads 9, self-adhesive thistle-cloth means, magnets, or the like, to en­able the inventive writing pad assembly to be safely affixed to and removed from a plane surface a number of times.
  • af­fixing means such as spaced self-adhesive foam material pads 9, self-adhesive thistle-cloth means, magnets, or the like
  • Fig. 3 shows the manner of providing an adhesive 13 on the front and rear surface of each individual paper or plastics sheet 11 in the vicinity of its top edge 12. Taken together, sheets 11 form a pad 14.
  • each sheet 11 In order that each sheet 11, once withdrawn from pad 14, may be repositioned on other surfaces with its front surface as well as its rear surface, each sheet 11 is provided on both sides with a pressure-sensitive adhesive 13 applied to sheet 11 with the aid of an adhesion-promoting primer 15. This way, an ad­hesive strip is created which may be released and reapplied a number of times. That surface of adjacent sheet 11 which lies opposite pressure-sensitive adhesive 13 has thereon a coating 16 which ensures ready release of sheet 11 from pad 14.
  • each sheet 11 is provided at the top edge thereof with primer 15 and pressure-­sensitive adhesive 13, with release coating 16 being provided therebelow.
  • each sheet 11 is coated cor­respondingly in a mirror-image arrangement, i.e. coating 16 is provided along top edge 12, with primer 15 and pressure-sensi­tive adhesive 13 provided therebelow.
