DESCRIPTION

MARK DIGITAL BOOKS FOR ANY PRINTED OR DIGITAL PUBLICATIONS THAT HAVE A NUMERICAL REFERENCE ON YOUR PAGES.

SECTOR OF THE TECHNIQUE

The present invention is part of the industry related to the production and dissemination of all types of books (literary, technical, encyclopedic, entertainment, comics, informative, etc.) and other publications, both printed (mainly) and even digital publications ; particularly regarding bookmarks.

The main object of the present invention is a digital book brand for any printed or digital publication that has a numerical reference in its pages, which allows the page, paragraph and concrete line to be remembered without having to be installed in the book itself. Perform your function.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The invention proposed in this patent application arises from the need to have an effective method for the reader or user of a book to remember the point at which he has stopped reading it.

A commonly observed method is the book mark in the form of rectangular cards, of different materials but especially cardboard that are positioned between the sheets of the book where the reader has made his pause.

In this way, there is a background such as document ES 223.431 in which a bookmark of books is described formed by a flexible plastic sheet with one of its ends as a horizontal leg provided with a hook to be inserted into a book page. On the other hand, document ES 290.664 refers to a bookmark that has a marker head and a connection part divided by means of cuts in at least three tongues that separate from each other thanks to the elasticity of the material and thus can be placed by pressing on the edge of a book page,

Another antecedent identified in the document ES 1 063 938 U employs a laminar body, preferably of cardboard or the like, where a determining die of an elastically deformable tongue is appreciated and that with the same laminar body will configure a clip for fixing on a any book sheet. It is also observed in document ES 2 130 439 T3 10 a device for clamping and marking book pages that keeps the book open while reading, which comprises an element in the form of a curved type clamp, of elastic material, where the opposite arms embrace both the pages of the book already read and the cover.

In another antecedent identified in document ES 1 034 509 U 4, the same problem is solved by means of a protective book cover with a built-in marker, of those constituted from a laminar body made of any material that is considered appropriate, presenting a central area intended to be placed on the cover and back cover of a book, it has two lateral areas intended to be placed on the back of the cover and back cover acting as flaps, optionally it presents creasing lines that make it easier to fold the flaps on the back of the cover and back cover, characterized in that in the flap destined to be attached on the back of the back cover of the book that protects the lining or cover there is a transverse cut that penetrates inside the lining to the fold line, finishing off in its part inside in a circular configuration and optionally presents a roasted or angular configuration in the outer end of the area bounded by the cut.

Finally, document ES 1 039 689 U 6 mentions a bookmark for book pages, characterized in that it is a fixing element attached to a flexible rod and at its other end is topped by a page marker flap, so that by means of an adhesive sheet the fixing element is to be fixed on the inner back cover of a book (either between said inner back cover and its cover, or next to one of its inner vertices, or when binding the book, or between the spine of the sheets of the book and its lining), the page marker flap being arranged next to one of the outer vertices of the successive sheets of the book, aligned with said fixing plate, so that it marks at all times the page that is being reading since said marker flap automatically yields when passing each sheet of the book pointing to the next.

In this way, it is clear that the state of the art has different reading markers that can be summarized in: Those that are independent of the book and therefore are easily transportable from one copy to another, but in the same way you can lose the mark easily or fade inside the book, losing its functionality. And those that form a fixed part of the book, these being the most comfortable to handle, but cannot be transported from one copy to another. We would also include those models of markers that being an independent element of the book, can no longer be separated from that particular copy once they have been placed on it.

These brand existing books on the market that cease to fulfill their function when they are accidentally removed from the pages, or move from their location, are a problem. With the invention proposed in this application, both this problem and the others already mentioned are avoided; without the need to fold pages or to have to adapt the book itself beforehand, nor is it necessary to remove it or put it in the book every time it is read or every time it is stopped using a book to start using it with another . In addition, if the book mark leaves the pages where it was placed and ceases to be in contact with the book, it would still fulfill its function as a reminder of the reading point where the reader had stopped, it is enough that said reader or user register in the book mark the information referring to the page, paragraph and even line where you have stopped your reading to later be able to resume it without problem.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

In order to achieve the objectives and avoid the inconveniences mentioned in the previous sections, the present invention aims to facilitate the reading of books, magazines or any literary publication that has numbering of its pages, said publication being in both printed and in digital format

The books brand object of this invention, has the particularity of fulfilling its function as a reminder, keeping in itself the information referring to the point where the reader decides to pause reading, this is done digitally; allowing the user and reader, for example of a book, to be able to resume reading it by reminding him not only of the desired page but also of indicating the paragraph and the specific line in which

He recorded his last reading; This is very beneficial, not only in a novel, but also in technical manuals, student dossier, etc., in which you want to mark the exact point of reading and not just the page. The fact of having a digital device for this function achieves many advantages, because it allows you to remember more information, in a more exact, faster way and also thanks to the current advances in technology, there are more and better electronic materials every day ; of greater capacity, lighter, more economical, and of finer or reduced dimensions, so facilitating this function in a strip type device is a very easy task, which provides a very practical solution and yet to this day It had not been proposed.

• The book mark object of this invention is composed of a body of variable geometric shape, although preferably rectangular where the following elements that compose it are located; an ON / OFF button, a power source (energy or power) that can be batteries, batteries and / or solar cells, a keyboard formed by buttons with ten digits, from 0 to 9 as well as others Functional buttons, which allows the user or reader to enter the data (input interface), a viewfinder or display or LCD screen (liquid crystal) or even LED type that allows the user or reader to view the data entered previously (interface output), internally comprises a printed circuit where an integrated circuit (microprocessor) is in charge of processing the information entered, recorded on the printed circuit will be the contacts for the keyboard and a memory to store the data entered, finally and alternatively, a means of securing the brand books.

The use of the fastening means is optional and in any case it does not interfere or affect the functionality of the books brand to have a record of the exact point where the reader recorded his last reading. These means comprise, on the one hand, a thin “U” shaped metal clamp (two segments or arms parallel to each other and another small segment perpendicular to these and which joins them at one end) where one of the parallel segments or arms will be more elongated, on the other hand, there are grooves for inserting both arms, each in a groove, when removing the clamp in its entirety, it leaves the long arm visible and then the short arm will be reintroduced through its groove but leaving out the long arm, so that now the short arm will enter to the bottom of its groove (and with some pressure on it), and of

5

35

so that the other elongated arm is free to serve as a clip or tab. Its use is at the will of the reader; if the book mark is positioned with the removable tab in the form of a clip or clip that will allow you to attach the book mark to the sheets, to the cover, or if you do not use this fastening means, the book mark being interspersed between the pages of the book or simply leaving the device on the side of the book without contact with the east.

The elements that comprise the power supply (energy or power) can be batteries, including alkaline or button-type lithium batteries, with variable capacity, around 1.5 Volts .; of the type that are normally used for calculators or wrist watches, the different models of the book brand may have this type of energy source or can be combined with energy source obtained by solar or photovoltaic cells or cells.

The keyboard of the digital books brand will consist of a series of buttons, and these may have greater or lesser relief, they may even be included in the body of! mark books with the characters printed on it and that it is a touch keyboard without key buttons. In any case the buttons will comprise the ten digits, from 0 to 9 and other functional buttons; comprising at least one command acceptance button, to which it has been decided to name "OK" (ACCEPT), a button for correction or deletion to which it has been decided to name "DELETE" (DELETE), and a button to allow the reader to pass from one book to another to see the information stored on each book, which has been decided to call "BOOK" (BOOK).

The different buttons on the keyboard allow the user or reader to enter the data (input interface) to the books brand memory; Said recorded data can be of two types:

• An alphabetical record: It is understood by the alphabetical information that the reader will enter when the word NEW BOOK is read on the screen of the digital books brand, then you must write the letters one by one to form the word of the book title or work that you are reading (to enter letters, the book mark will automatically recognize, by default, that when you press each number button from 0 to 9, alphabetic characters (assigned in groups of three or four to each number) correspond, so that to write a text, press once on the button of the number containing the desired letter and thus select the first letter of the group, press twice to write on the screen the second letter assigned to that number and so on). The reader will write the title of the book or the

reference that he prefers to identify and then validate the written word, by pressing the "OK" button (so that next and automatically; the screen shows the next field to edit). This alphabetical record will be present in some models and in others not, depending on whether the manufactured books brand contains alphabetic registration means (letters), below the numbers on the keyboard.

• A numerical record: This record is comprised of the numerical information that the reader will enter when the words "page", "paragraph" and "line" are read on the digital books brand screen. These records serve to identify these three sections mainly:

o Page: Once the name of the book has been entered and validated (in those models enabled with alphabetic registration), the field with the word "page" will appear immediately afterwards, where the reader will use the keypad numbers to enter the numbers of a specific page that you want to save or memorize, then you must validate this figure by pressing the “OK” button so that next and automatically, the screen shows the next field to be edited.

o Paragraph: Once the number of the page of the book of interest has been entered and validated, the field with the word “paragraph” is shown on the screen and immediately below, where the reader will use the numbers on the keyboard to enter the number of the specific paragraph that you want to save or memorize, then you must validate this figure by pressing the "OK" button so that next and automatically, the screen shows the next field to edit.

o Line: Once the number of the paragraph of the book of interest is entered and validated, the field with the word “line” where the reader will use the numbers on the keyboard to enter the number of the keypad is shown on the screen specific line that you want to save or memorize, then you must validate this figure by pressing the “OK” button so that next and automatically, the screen shows the next field that in this case will be that of the book in which we we find, looping between the aforementioned fields always in the same book.

Internally, the digital books brand presents printed circuits where an integrated circuit (microprocessor) is in charge of processing the information entered, a memory to store the data entered. Engraved on the printed circuit will be the contacts for the keyboard, so that when a button is pressed, they act as electronic switches so that the contact is translated on the board and it sends the information, which as a result will appear on the screen of LCD type or even (although less recommended) LED type. The viewfinder or LCD display (liquid crystal) comprises the output interface that allows the user or reader to view the data entered previously, at least has the capacity to display 8 (eight) characters or digits.

The reader who is going to make use of the object of this patent application, consisting of a digital book mark, must start by turning it on using the “ON / OFF” button, switching from the OFF (off) state ON (on); Once this is done, the screen will show: “NEW BOOK" (new book), when no book has been saved or memorized yet or even when one has already been saved. So to add a book, and having the mark digital books on, the reader must press the “BOOK” button, the titles of the saved books will be displayed in a loop (if any) plus the “NEW BOOK” option, at this time the reader will press the “BOOK” button OK "and it will be observed how the words" NEW BOOK "disappear on the screen leaving the field blank so that the user himself (in those models of digital books enabled for alphabetical registration); can write the title of the book that is going to memorize or observe the title assigned by default and in an orderly manner as a BOOK 1, BOOK 2, BOOK 3, etc. (in those models of digital book brand in which the user can not edit the name of the book whose data is saving.) Then after writing the title or seeing that one is assigned by default, the reader must press the “OK” button to advance to the next field (from now on all of them editable by the reader) relative to the page where the The reader will use the numbers on the keyboard to enter the numbers of a specific page that you wish to save or memorize, then you must validate this number by pressing the “OK” button again so that it will then automatically; the screen shows the next field to edit relative to the Paragraph; where the reader will use the numbers on the keyboard to enter the number of the specific paragraph that he wishes to save or memorize, then he must validate this number by pressing the “OK” and

"BOOK 3" but whose information fields on page, paragraph or line are now completely blank. Once this is done, and if the user of the book brand is not going to use it soon, it should be turned off by pressing the ON / OFF button.

In a preferred embodiment e! The body of the book brand is a rigid rectangular sheet made of various materials such as plastic and its derivatives. In said body, the aforementioned buttons comprising the ten digits, from 0 to 9 and between the functional buttons can be observed; comprising at least one command acceptance button ("OK1 '), a button for correction or deletion (" DELETE "), and a button to allow the reader to move from one book to another (" BOOK "). buttons among themselves and of these with respect to the rest of the elements present in the body of the book brand, such as the LCD screen or the photovoltaic cell, may vary along said body, being located vertically, horizontally and others.

In another preferred embodiment similar to the one just described; having the body of the book mark constituted by a rigid rectangular sheet, more functional buttons can be used to fulfill the aforementioned actions, for example and by way of illustration but not exclusive, a button can be assigned to select the field referring to the page, another button to select the field referring to the paragraph, another button to select the field referring to the line, so that once the book is placed between the list of the memorized ones and having selected it by pressing the confirmation button (in this proposal called “OK”)

The reader can move between one field and another of the same book thanks to a button that takes you directly to that field without having to go through the other fields or pressing the "OK" button again and again as previously explained.

An advantage of the books brand proposed in this application, is that you can save the exact information of the point where the reader has stopped reading in more than one book at the same time, this translates into a great advantage because there are many users who read more of a book, magazine, etc. during the same period of time, so that the same brand of digital books can serve a person for several different books, or it can serve several people who want to use it and share it to save each one their last reading point of the book that they are reading. In addition, the object marks books proposed in this application, it does not affect the

5

35

integrity of the printing, ink or colors of the pages, nor does it alter the form of the same or any part of the book; It manages to fulfill its function of remembering both the page, the paragraph, and even the exact line in which the reader has left his reading not being at all invasive for the book. This is achieved by saving all this information in itself, digitally.

It also has the advantage that you do not need to be in contact with the book whose reading mark you are saving, therefore, the user can keep it between the pages of the book and leave it open or close it and thus save the page and protect the brand books, (especially in these cases the reader must make sure that the book mark is turned off so that buttons are not accidentally pressed) but, the reader could also remove the book mark proposed in this invention and leave it aside book (as it would happen if books of a literary edition in digital format are used as a brand or if it is being used for two or more books simultaneously), since also (thanks to the reminder system that defines it) it will keep the information of the exact point where the Reader recorded his last reading.

The object marks books proposed in this application, can be very useful in reading books with certain types of organization or classification of its content, for example in chapters and verses, as is the case of the Bible, in which The reader could point to the page and replace the chapter number instead of the paragraph number and the verse number instead of the line or create their own identification system.
