Definitions

  • the preferred hollow body according to claim 1 is a transparent Christmas tree ball.
  • Plastic or glass Christmas baubles commonly serve the purpose of decoration. In commercial decoration, this provision has been combined for some years with an information and advertising function. For this purpose, motifs, logos, texts and simple illustrations are printed on the outer surface of colored balls. These Christmas tree balls are being offered on the market recently as so-called logo balls.
  • the laser engraving does not allow all-round printing of the Christmas tree ball with a single use.
  • two-dimensional motifs are spent in the Christmas tree ball.
  • the objects are positioned in the sphere.
  • a motif is glued against the inner surface of the sphere.
  • the motifs that can be used in each case can be photographically designed, they also have the problem that they are not visible from all sides.
  • special requirements are placed on both the design of the balls and the nature of the paper / foil to unfold a photo within a Christmas tree ball to position and fix.
  • a conventional glass Christmas ornament ball has production-related and for receiving a suspension, an opening with a diameter of 0.5 - 2.5cm.
  • the size of the respective Kugel ⁇ ffhung is regularly very small in relation to the ball diameter, as a result, a visually harmonious, decorative appearance must be achieved.
  • a Christmas ornament can be equipped and decorated with small items, such as glitter stars, tinsel or minifigures. This is already practiced.
  • the claim of this invention is to design a Christmas tree ball to an object for the presentation of information, in particular copywriting, graphic and / or even personal, photographic representations.
  • the respective representation of photo / graphics / text must be seen all around even with a horizontally rotating Christmas tree ball.
  • the interior of a transparent, primarily blown, so seamless glass Christmas ornament ball should be used.
  • the object of the invention is thus, primarily three-dimensional carrier of information, in particular copywriting, graphical and / or photographic representations to spend by a relatively small opening, in a transparent hollow body, there spread largely unfolding space to unfold, in position and to fix in this position.
  • the visual appeal of the Christmas tree ball must remain festive and decorative.
  • the information / advertising / graphics / photo to be transported is placed on a suitable medium (paper, photo carton, fabric, foil).
  • a suitable medium paper, photo carton, fabric, foil.
  • photographic paper is used as the preferred medium.
  • the printed photo paper is folded and / or glued into the desired, visible later in the ball shape.
  • These are in each case upwardly and downwardly inflated casings (hereinafter referred to as
  • Photo envelope (4a-d) which are circumferentially, mainly closed by gluing.
  • Figures 1 to 4 show various preferred ways of relating thereto
  • a ready-prepared photo sleeve (4a-d) describes in each case the outer dimensions of the later located in the Christmas tree multidimensional body.
  • photo paper is used as a base material.
  • This photo paper / photo carton can also be replaced by other, printable or photo-technically designable, and at the same time deformable materials.
  • printable films and printable textiles can be used in this regard.
  • a preferred photo envelope (4a-d) is brought into the sphere (1).
  • the photo cover is rolled up gently for this purpose, and pushed through the opening (2) in the ball inside.
  • the opening (2) of the ball should preferably have a diameter of 1.5 - 3.5 cm.
  • the prefolded photo sleeve (4a-d) is preferably rolled over a smooth-surfaced round rod having a diameter of at least 1.2 cm.
  • a ballpoint pen can be used for this purpose. This method prevents too tight reeling and thus permanent damage to the photographic image.
  • FIG. 5 shows by way of example a photographic casing (4d) in the form of a cylinder shortly after the ⁇
  • the photoresist (4d) within the sphere (1) is replaced by e.g. a pair of tweezers in
  • the upper opening of the photo cover is now aligned to the ball opening (2).
  • a foam body (5) which corresponds to the shape of the already existing in the sphere photo envelope (here: cylinder), also spent in the ball (1)
  • the foam body (5) is in this process directly into the previously in the ball
  • the foam body (5) by a funnel-shaped
  • the foam body (5) which begins to expand again inside the ball, has slightly larger dimensions than the photo sleeve (4d). Said foam body thus finds its spatial limit in the narrower photo sleeve (4d) and gives it its own
  • the overall figure created by the expansion process (here: cylinder) is dimensioned in such a way that in the expanded state it fits quite exactly into the ball to be equipped and uses its volume as much as possible.
  • a classic ball suspension (3) made of metal as shown in Figure 7 consists of a so-called Kugelhütchen (3a) and a spring wire bent from staple wire (3b).
  • the length of this wire (in the preferred form of metal) is in each case dimensioned in a commercial Christmas tree ball, so that its two ends protrude into the interior of the Christmas tree ball only until just below the Kugelöfmung.
  • the wire ends ensure by their spring-back property that the suspension braced in the interior of the ball. The necessary stop is hereby given. In addition to an additional decorative effect, which results from the design of the hanger, this fulfills no further tasks.
  • the Schaumstoff ⁇ emotions (5) is chosen in its vertical extent so that it already touches the wire ends of the staple wire (3b) of the ball hanger (3) (7) and so together with the photo sleeve (4d) is fixed by these ( Figure 8) , In this embodiment, the Schaumstoff ⁇ emotions protrudes beyond the upper edge of the photo cover (4d).
  • the wire ends of the staple wire (3b) of the ball hanger (3) are extended by a few millimeters, so that they rest on the surface of the foam body (5), or even penetrate a few millimeters into it. In this way, the foam body (5) and at the same time the surrounding photo sleeve (4d) is fixed within the ball.
  • All of the aforementioned embodiments of the invention relate to the expansion (unfolding), positioning and fixing of three-dimensional advertising bodies within a hollow body, primarily in a Christmas tree ball.
  • a two-dimensional object for example a double-sided printed photo, that is to say a flat photographic cover, as shown in FIG. 1, can not be brought into the desired shape by the possibilities presented so far, and held in position. It is thus a further object of the invention to develop a two-dimensional advertising and information surface within the Christmas tree ball with the least possible outlay and costs, to keep it in this expanded form and to fix its position.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention relates to an embodiment of the suspension of a Christmas tree ball, which makes it possible to deploy a spent in the ball, in particular flat advertising space / information surface to bring in a certain position and to hold in this.
  • this staple wire should not only jam the suspension in the upper region of the ball (1), but extend into it at least to the level of the ball center (FIG. 11). This longer in relation to the ball diameter configuration of the two wire ends of the metal staple (3b) makes it possible within the ball the desired "transparent", so the advertising space (photo sleeve (4a)) justifyspannen.
  • the procedure is as follows: two opposite advertising surfaces, e.g. Photos, are firmly connected to each other on the vertical outer sides, mainly glued. There is no connection in the intervening space. The result is the upwardly and downwardly open, two-dimensional photographic casing (4a) shown in FIG. In this form, the advertising space, as already described rolled up and spent by the ball opening in the Christmas tree ball.
  • the described advertising and information surface consists primarily of paper, it should be ensured that the clamping force of the wire ends (3b) is not too high, so that the paper is held only under tension, and not pierced.
  • the spread angle of the wire (3b) ie the angle which exists between the two wire ends, is to be matched to the size of the photo casing (4a) and the material used (primarily paper / photo cardboard).
  • a further preferred embodiment provides that the shape of the staple wire (3b) is adapted overall to the shape of the object to be held, that is to say the photo envelope (4a).
  • FIGS. 14 and 15 illustrate that the wire runs inside the photographic casing (4a) parallel to the outer edge of the photographic casing (4a). The pressure force (tension) of the wire (3b) is thereby distributed evenly on the object to be held For example, when the two-dimensional photo-envelope (4a) is round, the bending of the wire is performed to the same extent. In this way, the round (or oval) advertising surface (4a) can be reliably and accurately clamped, positioned and held up to its outermost edge (FIG. 15).
  • Another embodiment of the invention relates to the deployment and fixation of three-dimensional photographic sleeves (4) within the sphere by the extended
  • FIGS. 16 and 17 illustrate the spreading effect of FIGS. 3 and 4, respectively
  • the ends of the staple wires (3b) are also bent in such a way that they run parallel to the object to be held inside the object (photo sleeve (4b-c)) (FIGS. 18 and 19).
  • the ball cap (3a) of the Christmas tree ball In order for the staple wires (3b) to obtain the correct guidance into the ball (1) in such constellations, the ball cap (3a) of the Christmas tree ball must be modified accordingly.
  • the classic hanger (3) for Christmas tree balls has a slot (3c) in the ball cap (3a) (FIG. 20). This can also remain so in the case of elongated wire ends, if only a flat, two-dimensional object (4a) must be deployed. Only when three-dimensional photo envelopes (4b-c) to be unfolded and fixed, it is necessary to drive 3 or more wire ends in the ball. Accordingly, the number of guide slots (3c) in Kugelhütchen must be adjusted ( Figures 21 and 22).
  • the guide slots (3c) ensure that the three-dimensional photographic sleeves (4b-c) inside the ball at the correct angle through the staple wires (3b) are detected and held. According to the above-considered form of the advertising medium (the photo envelope), the guide slots (3c) must be positioned in angular synchrony.
  • the wires are brought together above the ball opening or connected to the cap is of secondary importance.
  • the decisive factor is that an expansive spreading effect is developed by the wire ends (3b) within the ball (1).
  • the wire (3b) must consist of so-called spring wire which, after slight bending, returns to its initial shape.
  • a plastic with comparable properties is used for producing the staple wire (3b).
  • the advertising and information sphere created by means of the aforementioned methods solves both the described cost problem, the problem of the lack of color variety, and the problem that an all-round presentation of information, texts, logos, pictures and even photos by means of Christmas tree balls was previously not possible.
  • the possible, commercial application of such a sphere expands considerably over that of a previously known, normal logo ball.
  • the invention makes a completely individual design of Christmas decorations possible both in private and commercial use.
  • Photo balls as a giveaway and / or customer gift
  • Photo balls for events and events (trees decorated with theme balls) Photo balls with pictures of the latest products (promotion balls) Photo balls with pictures of sports fans and music stars (fan balls) Photo balls with personal photos (wedding balls, baptism balls %) Photo balls with pictures of sights (souvenir balls)
  • the photo ball is not only suitable as a tree decoration, but also as a solitary ball in the commercial and private sector.
  • the foam bumper (5) (including the photo cover (4b-d)) is dimensioned slightly smaller than the ball volume would allow.
  • the thread end (6) is not simply attached to the ball hanger (3) or cap of the ball (3a), but connected to the rotating center of a small analog clockwork, which is fixed under the ball bell (3a) of the ball hanger becomes. This has the consequence that the thread (6) and thus the entire figure suspended from it begins to rotate within the sphere.
  • This construction is sensitive to movement and only makes sense in a stationary use of the ball.
  • FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic representation of FIG. 1:
  • a flat photo sleeve (4a) are two flat and identical photo papers (here: round), which are placed back against each other, and glued to the lateral outer edges. The resulting photo envelope is completely closed, and opened up and down Possible are diesbzgl. not only round, but also rectangular and all other conceivable basic shapes.
