Definitions

  • the invention relates to a greeting card envelope with an acoustically, optically, haptically and / or olfactorily perceivable effect triggering functional unit.
  • Greeting card envelopes in the meaning of the application are both envelopes that are used for receiving and sending separate greeting cards, greeting cards, photos, pictures, vouchers and the like, as well as - in a corresponding embodiment - envelopes that are at the same time greeting card, greeting card or the like, so that can be dispensed with a separate card.
  • Greeting cards which when opening an acoustic message, for example, a greeting or congratulation play or in which an optical effect is triggered, for example, one or more LEDs are turned on, are already known and available in different versions in the trade and, for example, from the DE 3203393 A1 known.
  • a generic greeting card envelope which also serves as a carrier for presenting a gift is also in the US 5,761,836 A disclosed.
  • the functional unit triggers the predetermined effects when the greeting cards are opened to a certain extent.
  • the case used for use for example. Sliding contacts or contact tabs allow only a very inaccurate definition of the required opening angle for the release. They are also very error prone and tend to fail after a few opening operations.
  • the funds do not contribute to the greeting cards are held reliably in their locked position. In order to effectively prevent a possible incorrect operation or accidental opening, it is necessary to use separate closure elements.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a greeting card envelope, which has a high reliability and can be produced inexpensively.
  • Characteristic of the greetings card envelope according to the invention is the use of a push button, by the greeting card envelope is reliably closed.
  • the push button is designed in such a way and connected to a functional unit that this causes an acoustic, visual, haptic and / or olfactory perceptible effect when you open the push button.
  • the push button ensures that the greeting card envelope is reliably closed, so that an accidental opening, by which it could unintentionally lead to a discharge of an energy source, is effectively prevented.
  • the push button is also characterized by the fact that it allows an arbitrary frequent opening and closing of the greeting card envelope, the function is maintained.
  • the effect to be triggered when the push-button is opened is basically freely selectable and can be adapted to the particular occasion when a greeting or congratulation is sent.
  • the functional unit comprises for this purpose the respective effect elements, for example a memory unit and a loudspeaker in the achievement of an acoustic effect or light emitting diodes in the achievement of an optical effect, the energy source, the necessary connections to the effect units and the push button and a switching unit, the opening of the Detects push button.
  • a haptic effect can be generated, for example, by a vibration unit, an olfactory effect by an odor generation unit.
  • the push button is designed such that when closing the push button, the functional unit interrupts the effect. Accordingly, the desired effect even before the expiration of a fixed period, for example.
  • the duration of the acoustic greeting or the duration of the optical effect be interrupted. This may be particularly advantageous if the effect is triggered at a time when this is not desirable.
  • the arrangement of the switching unit is basically arbitrary.
  • This embodiment of the invention has the advantage that a corresponding connection to the functional unit can be made independently of the arrangement of the push-button shell. This makes it possible to design the connection to the functional unit particularly simple. An otherwise possibly complicated connection can be dispensed with.
  • the switching unit is connected to a respective contact element in the push-button lower part and the push-button shell.
  • This embodiment of the invention allows a particularly small configuration of the push button. It is conceivable, for example, a structure, according to which the functional unit triggers the desired effect in an interruption of a circuit produced by the contact elements as a result of opening the push button.
  • the greeting card envelope can, as already described above, for example, be designed to hold a greeting card, a photo or the like or even serve as a greeting card.
  • the combination of the function of the greeting card and the envelope in an item is particularly advantageous.
  • a surface, in particular the surface of a card base body and / or a card intermediate body for this purpose is described, preferably formed rewritable. Rewritability allows multiple use of the greeting card envelope.
  • the corresponding surface may, for example, have a coating which allows the text applied to it to be removed again.
  • a card body has a pocket, in particular for receiving a greeting card, photos, coupons, etc. on.
  • the bag ensures in a particularly reliable manner that the greeting card is held in position in the greeting card envelope.
  • the bag can be used to hold smaller gifts that can also be shipped with the greeting card envelope, give away or the like.
  • the bag according to a further embodiment of the invention a convolution.
  • the fold is preferably accordion-shaped at the opposite edges of the pocket.
  • Such a bag is particularly accessible and allows even inexperienced users to easily get to the contents of the bag.
  • the folding also increases the usable space of the bag and is therefore suitable for receiving smaller gifts.
  • the greeting card envelope on a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention on its front side a recess. This view into the interior enabling recess also ensures that when opening the greeting card envelope is immediately recognized that a greeting card or the like is in the bag.
  • the functional unit has a receiving unit for storing an individual acoustic effect.
  • the recording unit which includes a microphone for inputting an acoustic greeting and a memory element for storing the acoustic greeting, allows the person who gives away the greeting card envelope to record a personal message, a song or the like to the recipient.
  • the in the Fig. 1-3 illustrated greeting card envelope 1 is formed in the manner of a conventional envelope.
  • a cover flap 5 In contrast to a conventional envelope, however, not only is a cover flap 5, but also the tabs 3, 4 arranged on the remaining edges of a card main body 6 are hinged, so that they provide good access to the card main body 6, for example to describe it. enable.
  • this has a push button 2, wherein a push button upper part 2a on the cover flap 5 and a push button lower part 2b are arranged substantially centrally on the card base 6.
  • the tabs 3 arranged on the short sides of the card main body 6 are first pivoted in the direction of the push-button lower part 2b.
  • the cover flap 5 is pivoted with the push-button upper part 2a in the direction of the push-button lower part 2b and brought into engagement therewith. Since the tab 4 covers the tabs 3 arranged on the short sides of the edge base body 6 and the cover flap 5 covers the tab 4, the greeting card envelope 1 is reliably secured in the closed position.
  • An opening of the push button 2 causes via a connection not shown here a below the Receiver 6 arranged and also not shown functional units triggering the desired effect.
  • the greeting card envelope 1 in the second, in the Fig. 4-6 illustrated embodiment, the greeting card envelope 1 'by a card body 12, a card intermediate body 11 and a cover flap 5' are formed, which are hinged together on their longitudinal sides.
  • the card base body 12 has a pocket 13 for receiving a greeting card or pictures.
  • a recess 14 allows insight into the pocket 13 and facilitates access to a greeting card, not shown here.
  • a push button 2 consisting of the on the cover flap 5' arranged push-button upper part 2a and on the opposite side of the bag 13 card body 12 arranged push-button lower part 2b.
  • the card intermediate body 11 is pivoted in the direction of the card main body 12 until they lie flat against one another.
  • the cover flap 5 ' is pivoted in such a way until the push button upper part 2a is engaged with the push button lower part 2b.
  • a not shown here, arranged in the push-button lower part 2b switching unit is so connected to a functional unit also not shown here, that when you open the push button 2, the desired effect, for example.
  • An acoustic signal is reproduced via a speaker.
  • FIG. 7 3 shows another embodiment of a greeting card envelope 1 " Fig. 3-6 illustrated greeting card envelope 1 '.
  • the only difference is that the greeting card envelope 1 'no pocket 13, but tabs 15 which are pivotally mounted on the opposite short sides of the card body 12.
  • the greeting card envelope 1 can be both greeting card itself, allows with the tabs 15 but also the reliable recording of a separate greeting card, not shown here, a photo, voucher or the like.
