Definitions

  • This invention relates to a whiteboard/ blackboard of the type comprising multiple panels with connecting means between them to form panels of larger size.
  • Whiteboards/blackboards of the prior art are preferably whiteboards/blackboards comprising an external metal surface designed to be written on using an erasable marker.
  • the external metal surface that is written upon these whiteboards/blackboards comprise an internal structural member, usually of cardboard, foam or any other semi-rigid material that keeps the external surface straight without being excessively heavy, as this gives rise to problems with transport and storage.
  • whiteboards/blackboards are generally of various sizes depending on the need of individual customers, and may be of sizes from 0.6 x 1 m to more than 1.5 x 2.5 m. As the size of whiteboards/ blackboards increases, the need for larger means of transport also increases.
  • US 2011/042541 discloses a modular panel system which consists of adjacent panels according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the panels are attached to the wall by means of pegs situated at the join between panels.
  • the pegs protrude from the writing surface forming island wherein it is not possible to write. Moreover, it requires a very precise installation of the pegs on the wall in order to keep the adjacent panels aligned.
  • US 2009/139127 discloses a collage which consists of a grid of magnets attached to the wall which collaborate with metallic points of the elements, in order to attach them to the walls.
  • the elements of the collage are spaced apart and the grid of magnets ensure that the spacing is kept.
  • the present invention comprises a whiteboard /blackboard according to claim 1. Preferred embodiments are the object of the sub-claims.
  • This invention thus relates to a whiteboard/blackboard of the type comprising at least one panel which in turn comprises:
  • such a whiteboard/blackboard as described in this invention overcomes the abovementioned problems given that in having a smaller variety of panel sizes which can nevertheless be arranged in a modular manner, transport is made easier (packages are smaller), storage is made easier and as many panels as are required for any application can be joined together producing whiteboards/blackboards of large size without the disadvantages present in systems according to the known art.
  • the whiteboard/blackboard according to this invention comprises at least two panels, but may comprise more than two panels, thus increasing the writing surface area of the whiteboard/blackboard.
  • the whiteboards/blackboards having the writing surfaces according to this invention may comprise an external surface attached to a filler material.
  • the external surface is preferably metal and the filler material may be cardboard, wood, foam or the like.
  • the whiteboard/blackboard according to this invention comprises a device of the clip type at the top of the whiteboard/blackboard which can be used to support paper.
  • this invention provides an embodiment in which the means for attachment of the whiteboard/blackboard to the wall include a magnet, so that the connection between the whiteboard/blackboard and the wall may be made by magnetic force, thus avoiding the need for parts to interlock.
  • the magnets will be attached to the wall by known means (for example by means of screws) and part of the whiteboard/blackboard will have metal components that are attracted by the magnets in such a way that the force of attraction between the magnet and the magnetic part will give rise to a join between the whiteboard/blackboard and the wall.
  • Figure 1 shows a manner in which a whiteboard/blackboard according to the prior art is supported.
  • This form of support comprises a first stage -10- of measuring in which a line is drawn and screws joining two flanges to the wall have to be positioned on that line. It should be emphasised that significant accuracy is required at this stage because any slight variation in the positioning of the screws will cause the whiteboard/blackboard to be tilted and/or poorly supported.
  • a second stage -11- the whiteboard/blackboard is placed on the two flanges previously fitted. Once the whiteboard/blackboard has been placed in position there is then a third stage -12- in which a line is drawn along the top of the whiteboard/blackboard.
  • the fourth stage -13- in the process of attachment comprises drawing a line at a specific distance from the line previously drawn, after which another two flanges are attached above that line in a reverse arrangement to that of the flanges in first stage -10- to support the whiteboard/blackboard from the top.
  • the whiteboard/blackboard is slid sideways between the upper and lower flanges.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a panel not according to the present invention.
  • Whiteboards/blackboards according to the present invention comprise multiple panels arranged adjacent to one another in order to divide up a whiteboard/blackboard into multiple panels of smaller size. This constitutes a clear logistical advantage in that panels of a standard size can be stored and transported and offer the end user a form of attachment which does not require the experience and skill required by the attachment means according to the prior art.
  • the panel in the figure comprises means of attachment to the wall -4-, a clip -3- for paper, pegs -31- to secure the clip -3- for paper to the panel, a writing surface -2- and a lower projection -5- for placing writing tools or other items on it.
  • Figure 3 shows a rear view of the panel in Figure 2 .
  • the panel comprises a side free of projecting members in such a way that when a panel is placed adjacent to it there is no interference, and it is possible to write in the area adjacent to the join between the panels.
  • a filler material -22- whose main function is to support the structure of the panel.
  • this filler -22- should be a rigid but light material such as cardboard.
  • the panel for attachment to the wall the panel comprises a flange -23- on its top surface which is supported on means attached to the wall or the surface on which it is intended to place the panel.
  • Figure 4 shows the panel according to Figure 3 with means of attachment -4- to the wall joined to the flange -23- of the panel.
  • the mentioned attachment means -4- comprises oval holes -42- for fitting screws and subsequent attachment to the wall.
  • the panels can be dismantled from the attachment means, as a result of which a user can position the screws through the attachment means, which will be lighter and smaller than the whiteboard/blackboard.
  • attachment means -4- In order to allow the addition of adjacent attachment means -4- while maintaining the first alignment made, attachment means -4- have at least one projecting member -43- and one receiving member -44- on their lateral extremities. Thus more adjacent attachment means can be added by joining the pieces in an interlocking way.
  • Flange -23- of the panel is located between L-shaped pieces -41- to keep the panel supported on the attachment means.
  • Figures 5 and 6 show details of the previously mentioned components of one of the means of attachment not according to this invention. These figures show greater detail of the attachment of L-shaped parts -41- to support at least one panel on the attachment means.
  • Figure 7 shows the arrangement of a whiteboard/blackboard comprising two adjacent panels -200-, -201- not according to this invention.
  • the whiteboard/blackboard illustrated in Figure 7 comprises two surfaces -5- on which items which are preferably related to writing on the whiteboard/blackboard can be placed.
  • each of the panels has associated attachment means
  • each of the attachment means -401-, -402- comprises a receiving member -44- and a projecting member -43- which connect together to increase the number of L-shaped pieces -41- available to the device and these can span a larger area, that is to say support writing surfaces of larger area.
  • Figure 8 shows another embodiment of means -4-for attachment of the whiteboard/blackboard to a wall in which the means of attachment are provided through magnetic forces.
  • magnets -4031-, -4032-, -4033-, -4034- are provided and are secured to the wall by means of plugs, -40311-, -40321-, -40331-, -40341- and screws -40312-, -40322-, -40332-, -40342-, as is well known in the prior art.
  • the whiteboard/blackboard is wholly metallic, at least in its external parts, as a result of which any part of the whiteboard/blackboard will serve as a supporting part for the magnets.
  • this invention may be provided with a template -4030- acting as a guide so that the user can easily locate the most appropriate supporting points for the whiteboard/blackboard.
  • Figure 9 shows an embodiment of two panels -200-, -201- with magnetic attachment means as described previously.
  • this invention has two templates -4030-, -4040- for locating four magnets for each whiteboard/blackboard. Nevertheless in particular embodiments of this invention more magnets may be included, or they may be replaced by a smaller number of magnets having a greater ability to generate a magnetic field.
