Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a usable for presenting information Information carrier.
  • Such information carriers are available, for example, as pre-printed price tags Marking of goods in the trade known, the imprint only one realized universal part of the information to be presented, whereas an individual Part of this information, e.g. B. the price of a certain product, retrospectively by the user is added, e.g. B. handwritten on a designated area of the information carrier is applied.
  • the disadvantage here is that it is not very appealing in practice Appearance of the information.
  • an information carrier is provided with a surface for Presentation of information consisting at least in part of symbols, wherein several identical symbol segment arrangements are arranged on the surface, which each serve to represent one of the symbols, each symbol segment arrangement an arrangement of several, separate from each other, releasably adhering to the surface Symbol segments includes, such that by releasing none, one or more of the Symbol segments of one of the symbol segment arrangements through the desired symbol the symbol segments of this symbol segment arrangement remaining on the surface can be displayed.
  • the basic idea of the invention is to provide the information carrier with a provide customizable information.
  • the customizability of this Share of information is thereby releasable on a presentation surface of the Information carrier sticking symbol segments realized, of which for individualization some of the information is simply detached from the surface.
  • This detachment of individual symbol segments can preferably be carried out in a particularly simple manner done without a tool necessary for this, namely by simply rubbing the Symbol segment material with your finger or fingernail.
  • the information carrier according to the invention can be produced by machine, especially in larger quantities. Because of the customization results then the advantage that the manufacturing costs of each individualized information carrier corresponds to the low unit costs to be expected for larger quantities. This makes the information carrier according to the invention for all areas of application interesting, in which the information carrier one through a mechanical production should have an embossed appearance, but the low High costs associated with quantities should be avoided.
  • a Information carrier set provided, consisting of at least 10, in particular at least 50, in particular identical, to a unit (e.g. packaging unit, container, etc.) summarized information carriers is formed.
  • the identical design can also consist in the fact that the customizable information portion (symbol segment arrangements) is identical, whereas the fixed information component in the The meaning of an "assortment offer" varies. This is particularly true in the area of Retail interesting, namely when individual information carriers to the end user should be sold, which then has the opportunity to choose from this range select.
  • predefined portion of information is characteristic of a person, a company or an organization, which is a plurality of such would like to use "pre-individualized" information carriers, for example as in the embodiment described below with reference to FIGS. 1-3.
  • An information carrier which is easy to produce and use is obtained if it is designed as a flat sign, the area for presenting the information being formed by one of the flat sides of this sign.
  • An essentially rectangular format of the sign is particularly interesting for many applications, in particular with an area in the range from 0.003 m 2 to 0.2 m 2 .
  • the surface can be, for example, a paper or cardboard surface or the surface a plastic material.
  • a plastic material For example, as an inexpensive plastic material Use polyethylene or polypropylene. These materials also have the advantage that a variety of color materials exist that are manufactured by industrial Standard processes (e.g. offset printing, screen printing etc.) can be applied and then do not adhere too firmly to the surface, so that the above-mentioned detachment an essentially complete detachment by rubbing or rubbing with the finger of the material applied.
  • the liability between the surface of the information carrier and the material of the Symbol segments can be immediate, i.e. H. provided without any intermediate layer his.
  • the two adhesive materials are for the select the desired level of liability appropriately.
  • the information presented can, for example, be text and / or image information comprising at least a portion of one or both of these types of information the symbols provided according to the invention can be represented.
  • the symbols provided according to the invention can be represented.
  • only a part of the information presented these customizable symbols, whereas another part of the Information is fixed. This takes into account that in many applications existing fact that often requires an unchangeable portion of information which should then already be predefined more easily.
  • Information carriers for information about the price of a product can be fixed predefined portion of information, for example a currency symbol, a trademark, an advertising slogan etc.
  • the symbol segment arrangement is preferably selected such that symbols consist of one Standard symbol set can be represented, for example symbols of an alphabet, especially the Latin alphabet, and / or a set of numbers, in particular the set of ten Arabic numerals from 0 to 9.
  • the symbol segment arrangements are in at least one row, d. H. arranged side by side.
  • the symbol segment arrangements are in at least one row, d. H. arranged side by side.
  • presentation of letters or numbers results from individual symbol segment arrangements it is advantageous to be able to display texts and numbers in one Arranged symbol segment arrangements.
  • several multiple numbers of identical symbol segment arrangements are, in particular arranged in different rows, each of these Multiple numbers for displaying symbol lines from the same or different Icon sets is provided.
  • a first row of Symbol segment arrangements for the representation of letters or a text and including a series of symbol segment arrangements to represent numbers or one Number must be arranged.
  • 7-segment bar arrangement so-called 7-segment bar arrangement provided, d. H. an arrangement of 7 elongated structures, the entirety of which reflects the shape of the number "8" (three in Essentially horizontal and equidistant structures and four two each The ends of these three structures interconnect further substantially vertically trending structures).
  • 7-segment bar arrangement allows in a particularly simple Show each of the digits 0 to 9.
  • Symbol segment arrangement can alternatively or additionally within the scope of the invention of course extend to other designs from the field of electronic data processing have become known. So there is for example similar bar arrangements (with more than 7 bars) with which the Letters of an alphabet can be represented.
  • the clear distance between neighboring ones Symbol segments is at least 0.5 mm, in particular at least 1 mm.
  • an impairment e.g. Damage or partial detachment
  • the symbol segments can be designed, for example, as printed layers of color his.
  • known and from the field of printing technology common colors in a suitable combination with comparatively inexpensive Plastic materials with a suitable ratio between cohesion and adhesion to lead.
  • the separation of the symbol segments is included negligible mutual distance between adjacent symbol segment edges provided, for example by punching a symbol segment material realized.
  • the individualization it is then preferred that the individualization be provided, the ratio mentioned between cohesion and adhesion so that the detachment of a Segment area entails the replacement of the entire associated segment.
  • This extreme case can be realized, for example, by using the symbol segments as glued, relatively strong plastic films are formed. This can be done from the so known stickers or adhesive labels and their backing materials known Techniques can be used.
  • the information carrier is the more or less large Risk of inadvertent damage or detachment of the segment material suspended immediately after the information carrier has been produced, for example during its transportation or storage. Therefore, in a preferred Embodiment provided that the surface of the information carrier together with that located symbol segment arrangements from a removable protective layer is covered.
  • This protective layer can, for example, be an easy one removable plastic film act, the adhesion to the segment material is essential is less than the adhesion between the segment material and the underlying surface.
  • Such a protective layer can also be formed by part of a package.
  • the entire information carrier can be wrapped (e.g. welded plastic film) must be packed, so that also with regard to a Damage to critical performance area is protected. If an entry already mentioned set of information carriers is provided, so everyone can Information carriers in this way protected a cover from damage or packaging.
  • the individual Information carriers in a summary arrangement (e.g. containers) in each case to keep the performance surface areas coated with segment material are exposed and the risk of their damage is avoided.
  • Information signs with the performance area on a flat side of each sign For example, a package arrangement is conceivable in which the individual signs in stacked but spaced apart are kept parallel to each other (e.g. in a cardboard presentation and sales stand).
  • the information carrier as a contact label (e.g. telephone number label) or as a price label.
  • Fig. 1 shows an approximately 40 cm wide and approximately 20 cm high, made of cardboard Price tag 10, which informs the viewer of the price of one with this tag 10 should inform excellent goods, in the example shown about the price of one Motor vehicle.
  • the top of the shield 10 forms a surface 12 for presenting information 14 regarding the seller and information 16 regarding the sales price.
  • This plastic coating 18 causes a comparatively weak adhesion of the Printing ink on the relevant area of the performance surface 12.
  • the part of the information 14, 16 printed on the plastic coating 18 consists from a series of six identical 7-segment bar arrangements, which in themselves is known to represent numbers in the range from 0 to 999999.
  • Fig. 2 illustrates - not to scale for the sake of clarity of representation Imprint of the bar assemblies 20 in the plastic coating 18 of the Shield 10.
  • the individual bar arrangements 20 consist of 7 bar-like segments with a minimum mutual distance of about 2 mm, their material (printing ink) by medium pressure with a finger and subsequent rubbing of their base (plastic coating 18) in simple Way can be removed to the row of symbol segment arrays 20 Modify or individualize the display of a desired number.
  • FIG. 3 shows an example of such a result of an individualization of the shield 10 in a view of the shield 10 corresponding to FIG. 1.
  • the observer of the shield 10 now has a purchase price of 12,999.00 presents.
  • the finished price tag now has, instead of the prepared number symbols 20, modified number symbols 20 'with regard to the intended information. Since the symbol segments remaining after the modification, ie the segment removal, were actually printed on by machine, the result is a high-quality appearance which cannot be distinguished from a sign which is produced entirely by printing technology.
  • the representation of other data is also particularly important personal contact details, conceivable (e.g. email address, place of residence, first name Etc.)
  • FIG. 4 shows an example of such a “contact shield” or “flirt shield” 10a with a prepared number field, which by means of the prepared 7-segment bar arrangements 20a the setting of the telephone number information 16a to be presented allowed.
  • Fixed information 14a is provided in the lower area of the shield 10a arranged.
  • a different degree of liability on the one hand between the printed Telephone number information 16a and the cardboard used here as shield material and on the other hand between the printed predetermined information 14a and the shield material is achieved in this example by the fact that for the Bar arrangements 20a a special one, namely relatively weak on the cardboard material Adhesive printing ink is used, which is therefore easy with your finger can be rubbed off.
  • the hard-printed information 14a here contains information components that relate to one another refer to the purpose of the shield 10a, such as. B. the request "call me!.
  • the information carrier can also be used as an advertising medium for industrial companies become. In this case, free areas on the performance surface are appropriate to if necessary, also subsequently. B. a logo and / or an advertising message from Company.
  • FIG. 5 shows another example of a contact plate made of cardboard material 10b, in which the information 14b and 16b with a uniform printing color are printed, the upper half of the surface 12b being painted before printing was, the paint used here is chosen such that a comparative weak adhesion of the printed beam arrangements 20b is achieved.
  • Bar arrangements 20b with respect to the information 16b to be displayed (Phone number) already arranged in two groups, so in an appealing way a breakdown of the presented telephone number into area code (service provider or Area code) and actual telephone number (subscriber number) results.
  • a Another special feature of this embodiment is that the bar arrangements 20b both identical 7-segment bar arrangements as well as some bars already reduced such arrangements in the left part of the number field include. This diminishes advantageously the effort in the individualization of the contact plate 10b, which is used to present phone numbers with a restricted range of area codes (here: mobile phone numbers) is provided.
  • FIG. 6 shows an example of a contact plate 10c made of polypropylene which in the upper area of the surface 12c the prepared beam arrangements 20c are printed again with a common printing ink, with this Material combination already the desired, comparatively weak adhesion of the Beam arrangements 20c is guaranteed.
  • the in the lower area of the surface 12c presented text and image information is printed with the same printing ink, however not directly on the plastic material of the shield 10c, but on a previously in this area as an intermediate layer applied adhesion promoter layer.
  • an adhesion promoter layer is particularly suitable for materials such as these the area of printing and painting technology are well known to the person skilled in the art, so that there is no need to go into this in detail.
  • the embodiments described with reference to Figures 4-6 all relate to use as a contact plate.
  • an assortment can be found in retail such contact signs are offered to the end user for purchase, the individual types of information in the range essentially through the fixed differentiate the specified information portion (e.g. different information variants regarding the purpose of the sign; see. z. B. Information variants 14a, 14b and 14c), whereas the information that can be customized can be determined by the Common use of the contact data display, e.g. B. telephone number display, can be provided identically.
