- the book according to this invention is of the type of those incorporating at least in one of its pages and / or its covers at least one recess where precisely fits an extractable complementary part which, by its removable character , draws the child's attention to the book.
- the object of the invention is to obtain a children's book structured so as to increase the interest of the child for the book.
- this type of book makes it possible to make recesses on its pages and / or its covers, affecting one of the outer layers and the intermediate layer.
- These recesses define locations for parts or groups of complementary parts, each of them being constituted by an inner layer of nature and thickness coinciding with those of the intermediate layer of the page, and an outer layer of paper, cardboard or similar, which, like the rest of the book is the support for drawings and / or printed texts, while the elastic nature of the foam layers allow the complementary parts fit perfectly within the empty space while adopting a position quite stable, can still be disassembled, and constituting such additional parts and removable, a potentially attractive way for the child.
- the children's book proposes a basic structure according to what has been described above, and constitutes a progression in the evolution of the benefits of this type of book by increasing further the interest of the child for the book, because precisely the increase in benefits or opportunities.
- one or some of the additional pieces already named structured as has already been said in a posterior layer of foam or other soft material and a layer or front sheet of paper, cardboard or the like, carrier of graphic information, incorporates a second recess affecting only its foam layer and which remains hidden in normal mounting situation by the main complementary piece.
- This second recess is also occupied by a second complementary piece, structural features similar to the first and also removable.
- Figure 5 represents a detail in section of one of the pages of the book.
- the children's book is constituted, like any other conventional book of this type, by a plurality of duly connected pages, with its corresponding covers in each of which there is finds an intermediate layer (1) of foam or other soft material in which is fixed an anterior sheet (2) of paper, cardboard or other similar material that can receive the printing corresponding to texts and drawings, the layers (2 and 3) being undersized with respect to the foam intermediate layer (1), so that normal handling of the book, that is to say by intervening on its pages, the manual contact will have always take place by the foam or soft material edges, as shown in figure 1 .
- a recess (4) is established in any configuration on the basis of a drawing, obviously affecting the front layer front (2) of the page and the intermediate layer (1) of foam, as seen on the figure 2 .
- This recess is intended to contain, perfectly adjusted, a complementary piece (5) configuration identical in shape, but structured with only two layers, precisely those eliminated by the recess indicated above, that is to say by a front layer of paper, cardboard or the like, and a layer posterior to the oversized perimeter of foam, with a tab (6) which facilitates the extraction of the complementary piece (5).
- said complementary piece (5) also has at least one other recess (7) open towards its posterior face, as represented on the figure 4 ; this recess only affects its layer (1) of soft material and where is located a second piece (8), extractable also from the complementary piece (5), but by its rear face, as it has just been described, this complementary piece (8) is also structured at the base of a foam layer and a covering of paper, cardboard or the like, in order to be decorated.
- This posterior recess of the complementary piece (5) also has a tab (6 ') to facilitate its extraction.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention se rapporte à un livre pour enfants, c'est-à-dire un livre destiné aux enfants de bas âge, du type de ceux comprenant un nombre réduit de pages, mais d'une épaisseur considérable dont la structure pourra coïncider ou pas avec celle des couvertures antérieure et postérieure.The present invention relates to a children's book, that is to say a book intended for young children, of the type comprising a small number of pages, but of a considerable thickness whose structure may coincide or not with that of the anterior and posterior covers.
Plus précisément, le livre selon cette invention est du type de ceux incorporant au moins dans l'une de ses pages et/ou de ses couvertures au moins un évidement où s'emboîte avec précision une pièce complémentaire extractible qui, de par son caractère démontable, attire l'attention de l'enfant pour le livre.More specifically, the book according to this invention is of the type of those incorporating at least in one of its pages and / or its covers at least one recess where precisely fits an extractable complementary part which, by its removable character , draws the child's attention to the book.
L'objet de l'invention est d'obtenir un livre pour enfants structuré de manière à augmenter l'intérêt de l'enfant pour le livre.The object of the invention is to obtain a children's book structured so as to increase the interest of the child for the book.
Des livres de telle sorte sont déjà connus, tel que le montre le Brevet Français
Outre cet aspect sécuritaire, ce type de livre permet de réaliser des évidements sur ses pages et/ou ses couvertures, affectant l'une des couches extérieures et la couche intermédiaire. Ces évidements définissent des emplacements pour des pièces ou groupes de pièces complémentaires, chacune d'elles étant constituée par une couche interne de nature et d'épaisseur coïncidant avec celles de la couche intermédiaire de la page, et une couche externe en papier, carton ou similaire, qui, tout comme le reste du livre constitue le support pour les dessins et/ou les textes imprimés, alors que la nature élastique des couches de mousse permettent que les pièces complémentaires s'ajustent parfaitement au sein de l'espace vide tout en adoptant une position tout à fait stable, pouvant être tout de même démontées, et constituant, les telles pièces complémentaires et démontables, un moyen potentiellement attirant pour l'enfant.In addition to this security aspect, this type of book makes it possible to make recesses on its pages and / or its covers, affecting one of the outer layers and the intermediate layer. These recesses define locations for parts or groups of complementary parts, each of them being constituted by an inner layer of nature and thickness coinciding with those of the intermediate layer of the page, and an outer layer of paper, cardboard or similar, which, like the rest of the book is the support for drawings and / or printed texts, while the elastic nature of the foam layers allow the complementary parts fit perfectly within the empty space while adopting a position quite stable, can still be disassembled, and constituting such additional parts and removable, a potentially attractive way for the child.
Le livre pour enfants propose une structure de base selon ce qui a été décrit ci-dessus, et constitue une progression dans l'évolution des prestations de ce type de livre en augmentant davantage l'intérêt de l'enfant pour le livre, à cause justement de l'augmentation de ses prestations ou de ses possibilités.The children's book proposes a basic structure according to what has been described above, and constitutes a progression in the evolution of the benefits of this type of book by increasing further the interest of the child for the book, because precisely the increase in benefits or opportunities.
Dans ce but, l'une ou certaines des pièces complémentaires déjà nommées, structurées tel qu'il a déjà été dit selon une couche postérieure en mousse ou autre matériau mou et une couche ou feuille frontale en papier, carton ou similaire, porteuse de l'information graphique, incorpore un second évidement n'affectant que sa couche de mousse et qui reste caché en situation normale de montage par la pièce complémentaire principale. Ce deuxième évidement étant lui aussi occupé par une seconde pièce complémentaire, aux caractéristiques structurelles similaires à la première et également démontable.For this purpose, one or some of the additional pieces already named, structured as has already been said in a posterior layer of foam or other soft material and a layer or front sheet of paper, cardboard or the like, carrier of graphic information, incorporates a second recess affecting only its foam layer and which remains hidden in normal mounting situation by the main complementary piece. This second recess is also occupied by a second complementary piece, structural features similar to the first and also removable.
De cette manière, l'enfant se rend compte rapidement qu'après le démontage d'une pièce complémentaire et en la retournant tout simplement, il a accès a une seconde pièce complémentaire pouvant elle même être démontée.In this way, the child quickly realizes that after dismantling a complementary piece and simply turning it over, he has access to a second complementary piece that can even be dismantled.
Les dessins annexés sont destinés à compléter cette description et à permettre une meilleure compréhension de ses caractéristiques. Ils représentent un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention.
- La
Figure 1 représente une vue générale en perspective d'un livre pour enfants réalisé selon la présente invention, qui est tout simplement ouvert. - La
Figure 2 représente une vue similaire à celle de la figure précédente où la pièce complémentaire de la page correspondante a été retirée de son évidement ou emplacement. - La
Figure 3 représente une perspective séparée de la pièce complémentaire, présente de même sur les figures précédentes, suite à une rotation de 180°. - La
Figure 4 représente une vue similaire à celle de lafigure 3 , mais où la seconde pièce complémentaire a été enlevée de la première.
- The
Figure 1 represents a general perspective view of a children's book made according to the present invention, which is simply open. - The
Figure 2 is a view similar to that of the previous figure where the complementary part of the corresponding page has been removed from its recess or location. - The
Figure 3 represents a perspective separate from the complementary piece, similarly present in the previous figures, following a 180 ° rotation. - The
Figure 4 represents a view similar to that of thefigure 3 but where the second complementary piece was removed from the first.
Finalement, la
A l'aide de ces figures, l'on peut se rendre compte que, le livre pour enfants est constitué, comme tout autre livre conventionnel de ce type, par une pluralité de pages dûment reliées, avec ses couvertures correspondantes dans chacune desquelles on y trouve une couche intermédiaire (1) en mousse ou autre matériau mou où se trouve fixée une feuille antérieure (2) en papier, carton ou autre matériau similaire pouvant recevoir l'impression correspondante à des textes et dessins, les couches (2 et 3) étant sous-dimensionnées par rapport à la couche intermédiaire (1) en mousse, de façon à ce qu'une manipulation normale du livre, c'est-à-dire en intervenant sur ses pages, le contact manuel aura toujours lieu par les bords en mousse ou en matériau mou, tel que représenté sur la
Tel qu'il a déjà été dit, sur l'une quelconque des couvertures et/ou pages ou sur la totalité, un évidement (4) est établi selon une configuration quelconque sur la base d'un dessin, évidement qui affecte la couche frontale antérieure (2) de la page et la couche intermédiaire (1) en mousse, tel que l'on observe sur la
Donc, selon l'invention, la dite pièce complémentaire (5) présente elle aussi au moins un autre évidement (7) ouvert vers sa face postérieure, tel que représenté sur la
Par conséquent, dans la situation de montage du livre représentée sur la
Optionnellement, la seconde pièce complémentaire (8) pourrait conformer un livre ou un autre élément formel aux dimensions adéquates afin de s'insérer sur la face antérieure de la première pièce complémentaire.Optionally, the second complementary piece (8) could conform to a book or other formal element of adequate dimensions to fit on the front side of the first complementary piece.
