Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a perpetual calendar usable in any calendar month by giving the same color as that given in a calendar day displaying section to the group of numerals, characters, symbols, etc., indicating calendar days corresponding to the same selected day-of-the-week through each calendar month and causing each day-of-the-week frame to indicate calendar days through the colors. CONSTITUTION:The leftmost day-of-the-week frame 32 in the day-of-the-week displaying column 281 of the 1988 on the 1st line is colored with yellow, but the yellow is the same color as that used for coloring '3, 10, 17, 24, 31' in a calendar day displaying section. By coloring the day-of-the-week frames of January, 1988, with yellow in such way, it is known that the days of the week of the calendar days indicated by the '3, 10, 17, 24, 31' are Sunday. Similarly, the purple on the right-side day-of-the-week frame 32 is the same color as that given to '7, 14, 21, 28' in the calendar day displaying section. Therefore, the calendar day corresponding to a specific day-of-the-week of the said calendar month can be known easily.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] This invention relates to a perpetual calendar that can be used in any calendar month.

[Prior Art] Perpetual calendars include numbers, letters, symbols, etc. that indicate consecutive calendar days from the 1st to the 31st of a month.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] The perpetual calendar does not include the name of a specific calendar month in a calendar year so that it can be used in any calendar month in any calendar year.
It is not displayed which calendar day corresponds to which day of the week.

Therefore, when using a perpetual calendar, one must know which day of the week a certain calendar day corresponds to in a certain calendar month.

[Means for solving the problem] The above problem is solved by the configuration described in the characterizing part of claim 1.

In addition, in the present invention, "numbers, characters, symbols, etc." that indicate a calendar year, calendar month, or calendar day are "1, 2, etc."
Arabic numerals such as ``...'', Roman numerals such as rI, n...j, Chinese numerals such as ``-92...'', and other numbers, such as r1988'' and ``Showa 63''. ``year'' ``1
``Mutsuki J r January J ``1st''
Letters such as “Tsutachi J rFirst day J”,
Or, it broadly means Japanese and foreign characters, symbols, and other things that have equivalent meanings.

Furthermore, in the present invention, the term "color" refers to all chromatic colors, achromatic colors, metallic colors such as gold and silver, transparent/semi-transparent colors, and anything that can be visually discerned.

[Operation] For example, a case will be explained in which the day of the week display section indicates the first Sunday of each month of each year.

For example, suppose you want to know what day of the week February 13, 1989 is.

First, in the day of the week display section, the user looks at a day of the week display field that has a calendar year heading field in which r1989J is written.

This r1989J means 1989. r1
Adjacent to the calendar year heading field of 989J, 12 day of the week frames are arranged in sequence. Among these day of the week frames, look at the day of the week frame for “February”, that is, the second day of the week frame from the left, and check its color. In the calendar date display section, r5, 12, 1
Since the group of numbers ``9°26'' is displayed in or with this color, it is easy to know from this that February 12th is a Sunday. Then, since February 13th, which we ultimately want to know, is the day after February 12th, we can know that February 13th is a Monday.

Also, suppose you want to know what day the third Tuesday of March in 1990 is.

First, in the same way as above, look at the day of the week display field for 1990, find out the color of the third day of the week frame, and search for the same color in the calendar day display section. r4.11.18,25
Since the number J is displayed in that color, we know from this that the third Sunday of this month is the 18th. Then, you can finally find out that the third Tuesday of the month you want to know is the 20th, which is the day after the 18th.

[Embodiment 1] In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, lo indicates the entire perpetual calendar of the present application, and this perpetual calendar IO consists of a calendar day display section 12 and a day of the week display section 14. . For simplicity, the day of the week display section 14 is shown only by a dashed-dotted frame line in FIG. 1, and details are shown in FIG. 2.

In the calendar day display section 12, the numbers "1 to 28" are displayed as 7
Divide each number into four horizontal lines and write them sequentially. In other words, the first line contains the numbers "1 to 7" and the second line contains the numbers "8".
The numbers ``15 to 21J'' are written on the third line, and the numbers ``22 to 28'' are written on the fourth line. Furthermore, in the fifth line, numbers "29 to 31" are written.

Each of these numbers is printed in black within another circular area 16 colored in the respective color. This other circular area 16 is shown only by a circular outline in the figure for the sake of simplicity.

31 each containing 31 numbers from "1 to 31" inside
The colors of the circular other areas IB are different for each of the seven groups into which these numbers are divided. In the illustrated embodiment, "1, 8, 15.22.29" belonging to the leftmost vertical column
The other circular area 16 containing the number J is colored red.

Similarly, r2.9. which belongs to the second vertical column from the left.
The other circular area 16 containing the numbers 16, 23, and 30J is
r3,1, colored dark blue and belonging to the third vertical row from the left
Other circular area 1B containing the numbers 0.17.24.31
is colored yellow and belongs to the fourth vertical column r4.11
, 18.25J is colored sky blue, and belongs to the fifth vertical column "5゜12.19".
．． The other circular area 16 containing the number 26J is colored green and is r6, 13, 20.27J, which belongs to the 6th vertical column.
The other circular area 1B containing the numbers is colored pink,
r7, 14, 21, 28 belonging to the rightmost vertical column
The other circular area 1B containing the number J is colored purple.

In each other area 16, the numbers such as rlJ r2J may be colored black or the like, or may be outlined.

In the figure, "red", "dark blue", etc. are displayed, but this is not a display that forms part of the calendar of the present invention.
It is for explanation of the figure.

These displays indicate that all other circular areas belonging to the vertical column to which the display is attached are colored in the color.

In addition to this embodiment, there are various methods of color-coding the numbers belonging to the above seven groups into seven different colors in the calendar date display section.

FIGS. 8 to 12 show examples of changes in this respect.

In addition, although characters such as "red" and "navy blue" or these characters and arrows are shown in the figures in these figures, this is for the purpose of explanation and does not apply to the calendar of the present application. It is not an indication that it forms a part.

In FIG. 8, "1, 8.15.22.
Bars 17 of the same color (red in this embodiment) are arranged between the numbers 29J. Similarly, the second
Another bar 17 of the same color (in this example, navy blue) is arranged between the numbers r2.9.16.23.30J of the third group, and the numbers r3, 10.17 of the third group , 24, and 31J, there are other numbers of the same color (in this example,
A yellow) bar 17 is arranged. Although not shown, bars 17 of different colors are similarly arranged between the numbers in the fourth to seventh groups.

In Figure 9, “1, 8, 15.22,
The number 29J is placed in the same color (in this example, red) frame 1.
8 and belongs to the second group r2.9.16.2
The number ``3.30'' is surrounded by another frame 18 of the same color (in this example, navy blue) and belongs to the third group r3.10.
, 17°24.31J are each further surrounded by another frame 18 of the same color (yellow in this example). Although not shown, r4,1 belongs to the fourth column from the left.
1.18.25J number, 5th column r5, 12.19
．． Number 26J, 6th column r6, 13, 20, 27J
The numbers r7, 14, 21, and 28J in the rightmost column are also surrounded by d frames 18 of different colors.

In Figure 9 above, each number in each group is individually surrounded by a frame, but instead, as shown in Figure 10, all the numbers belonging to each group are surrounded by a single elongated rectangle. frame 2
It may be surrounded by 0. In this case as well, the color of the frame 20 is different for each group. In the illustrated embodiment, the numbers belonging to the leftmost vertical column are surrounded by a red frame, the numbers belonging to the next vertical column are surrounded by a dark blue frame, and the numbers in the third vertical column are surrounded by a yellow frame. ing.

In the above modification example, the 31 numbers "1 to 31" in the calendar day display section are printed entirely in the same color, such as black,
Other areas surrounding that number 1B, frames 18.20. Alternatively, although the bar 17 is shown colored in seven different colors, instead of this, as shown in FIG. 11, the numbers belonging to each group may themselves be printed in different colors.

In the modified example shown in FIG. 12, the calendar 1° includes a lower sheet 22 having a calendar date display section, and a transparent upper sheet 24 that is hingedly connected at one side of the lower sheet 22.
A plurality of band regions 26 colored in different colors are arranged on the upper sheet 24, and both the upper and lower sheets 22
．． 24, one of the seven groups of numbers displayed on the bottom sheet 22 (for example, r7, 14.21
One band area 2B (for example, the purple one at the left end) overlaps one band area 2B (for example, the purple one at the left end), and the numbers in that group are colored in that color and can be visually observed.

The other area 16 may have any shape such as an oval, a square, a rectangle, a triangle, a rhombus, a hexagon, or the like.

This also applies to the frame 18. Also, frame 2
0, the band region 2B may have an oval shape or other shapes. 8th
The bar 17 in the figure may be an interrupted line or a curved line.

The method of coloring each of the seven groups of numbers is not limited to the above, and any method may be used. In short, it is sufficient that the viewer can immediately understand the relationship between each group of numbers and each color. In the characteristic part of the claims, it is stipulated that "the numerals in seven groups are displayed in seven different colors or together with these colors", but this does not mean " The 31 numbers themselves from 1 to 31 are printed in seven different colors,
The idea is that the numbers themselves are all printed in one color (eg, black), with all cases where each group of numbers is associated in some way with a particular color.

Note that the specific hues of the seven colors are not limited to those in this example.

In the embodiment of FIG. 1, for example, "4 days"
A small number "5" is shown above the number "4". This indicates that May 4th is a national holiday. Similarly, two small numbers "9" and "11" are shown above the number "23" indicating that it is the 23rd. This indicates that September 23rd and November 23rd are both national holidays.

As described above, in this embodiment, the number of the month of the calendar month in which a specific calendar day is a holiday is shown in small letters near the number indicating the calendar day. This makes it possible to immediately know all the calendar months and calendar days of public holidays during the year.

Some numbers are marked with an asterisk (*) next to the number above the number indicating the calendar month. For example, "*3" above "20". This indicates that although March 20th is the vernal equinox, the vernal equinox may fall on a different calendar day depending on the year.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, in order to indicate that a specific calendar day is a holiday in a certain calendar month, the number representing the month is displayed in small size above the number representing the calendar day. In short, all manners of use that can be distinguished from numbers representing adjacent calendar days, such as displaying the number representing the month in a larger size, using a different font, or displaying it in a different color, fall within the scope of this invention. . Further, the display position may be in the vicinity of the number representing the calendar day, and it does not matter whether it is above, below, to the left or to the right.

In the calendar date display section 12, "1" and "2" representing the calendar day are displayed.
Instead of arithmetic numerals such as rIJ rnJ, Roman numerals such as "-" and "two" may be used, and r
o n e J r t w o J or rf
Characters such as irstJ rsecondJ may also be used. In short, numbers that are objectively recognized as indicating the calendar day.
A wide range of characters, symbols, and other objects can be used.

Although not shown, instead of the calendar date display section in Figure 1,
〜7'' ``8〜14J r15〜21'' ``22〜28
A row of seven numbers "Jr29-31" may be arranged in the vertical direction. In this case, "1, 8, 15, 22, 2
Groups of numbers such as 9J are arranged horizontally. In other words,
Rows of numbers colored in the same color extend horizontally.

Next, the calendar date display section 14 will be explained with reference to FIG. In this figure as well, characters such as "yellow" and "purple" are for explanation purposes only and are not part of the calendar.

In the calendar date display section 14 of FIG. 2, small rectangular portions are arranged in 7 rows and 13 columns. Each row is called a day of the week display column 28.

In each day of the week display field 28, there is a calendar year heading field 30 at the left end. This has numbers indicating the calendar year inside a rectangular frame. For example, "1988" is written in the calendar year heading field 30 of the day of the week display field 28 on the first line, indicating that this day of the week display field 28□ relates to 1988.

Similarly, the day of the week display field 28° on the second line was set in 1989, the day of the week display field 283 on the third line was set in 1990, and the fourth
The day of the week display field 284 on the fifth line was created in 1991, the day of the week display field 285 on the fifth row was created in 1992, the day of the week display field 286 on the sixth row was created in 1993, and the day of the week display field 28□ on the seventh row relates to 1994.

In the day of the week display column 28, a frame line is not necessarily necessary, and it is sufficient to be able to grasp which calendar year it is.

In each of the day of the week display fields 28 to 287, twelve rectangular day of the week frames 32 are displayed on the right side of the calendar year heading field 30 and adjacent thereto.

Each of these day of the week frames 32 has another area 34 colored in a rectangular shape, and inside it, "January" and "2
``Month''...``December'' is displayed.

Each day of the week frame corresponds to the calendar month displayed there. In this embodiment, each day of the week frame indicates, by its color, the calendar day that falls on a Sunday in the calendar month to which the day of the week frame belongs. For example, in the day of the week frame 32 at the left end of the day of the week display field 28□ for 1988, "January" is displayed, and the other area 34 indicated by the rectangular frame of this day of the week frame is colored yellow. , which indicates that the Sundays in January of this year are the 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th, and 1.31 days. In addition, the day of the week frame to the right of it is displayed as “February”, and this day of the week frame 32 is displayed as “February”.
The other areas 34 are colored purple, which indicates that the Sundays in February of this year are the 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th. Next, we will explain why such information is given by the colors in the day of the week frames.

That is, the leftmost day of the week frame 32 in the day of the week display column 281 for 1988 on the first line is colored yellow;
This yellow color is r3,1 in the calendar date display section 12 of FIG.
The color is the same as that of 0, 17, 24, and 31J. In other words, by coloring the day of the week frame for January 1988 in yellow, the calendar days indicated by the numbers r3.10.17, 24, and 31J, which are colored in yellow in the calendar day display section, correspond to Sundays. can be known. Similarly, the day of the week frame 32 to the right is purple, but this purple is r7, 14,
The colors are the same as those given to 21 and 28J.

With this structure, when you look at the calendar day display section and find out that the first day of the week frame in the day of the week display field 28□ on the first line is yellow, the yellow section of the calendar day display section - If you look at the minute, that part corresponds to the number that indicates the calendar day that falls on a Sunday in January 1988. In this way, by matching colors, with the help of colors, 1
The calendar days corresponding to Sundays of the month are the 3rd, 10th, 17th,
You can easily and instantly know that it is the 24th or 31st.

The day of the week frame for February 1988 is colored purple, so look for the purple spot in Figure 1.

In Figure 1, the purple part belongs to the rightmost column r7,1
The numbers are 4, 21, 28J, and from this, 19
Sunday in February 1988 - The corresponding calendar day is 2
You can immediately know that it is the 7th, 14th, 21st, or 28th of the month.

As described above, in this embodiment, the color of each day of the week frame 32 in the day of the week display section 14 corresponds to the column to which the number indicating the calendar month corresponding to Sunday in the calendar month to which this day of the week frame 32 belongs belongs in the calendar day display section. The color is the same as that of

A detailed explanation of how to use the calendar of this embodiment is as follows.

For example, suppose you want to know what day of the week February 13th in 1989 Sai is.

First, in the day of the week display section 14, look at the day of the week display field 232 having the calendar year heading field 30 written as r1989J, look at the second day of the week frame from the left among the 12 day of the week frames 32 adjacent to this, Since the color is green, r5.12, 19, 2 is colored green in the calendar date display section 10.
February 5th, 12th, 19th, when the group of numbers 6J is displayed.
It is easy to know that the 26th is Sunday. Then, since February 13th, which we ultimately want to know, is the day after February 12th, we can know that February 13th is a Monday.

Also, suppose you want to know what day the third Tuesday of March in 1990 is.

First, in the same way as above, look at the day of the week display column for 1990, and since the third day of the week frame is sky blue, r4, 11, 18 colored sky blue in the calendar day display section 12.
, 25J numbers are displayed on the 4th, 11th, 18th, 25th.
Knowing that the day is Sunday and knowing that the third Sunday is the 18th, we can finally know that the third Tuesday of the month is the 20th, which is the day after the 18th.

FIG. 3 shows an example of modification of the day of the week display section 14. In this case, each day of the week frame 32 does not display the calendar month base to which it corresponds. In other words, within the frame of each day of the week frame 32 is “
Characters such as "January" and "February" are not written; instead, a line indicating the calendar month is provided above and parallel to the day of the week display columns 28, 232, etc. ,
In this line, the calendar month bases of "January", "February", . . . "December" are given as headings. For example, in this line 29, where "January" is written,
The day of the week frame 32 for January in each calendar year is simply provided as a colored area 84, and there is no indication of the calendar month base therein.

In this modified example, although the calendar month base is not written in each day of the week frame 32, since the heading line 29 exists above, it is not difficult to find the day of the week frame for the desired calendar year.

Although not shown, in some cases, the top heading row 2
Even 9 may be omitted. In this case, for example, 1989
To find the day of the week frame 32 for April 2017, find the fourth day of the week frame 3 counting from the left in the day of the week display field 232.
Just look at 2.

Other areas 34 of the day of the week frame 32 are rectangular, circular, triangular,
It can be a diamond or any other shape.

In addition, instead of other areas filled with the same color, only the frame of a circle, triangle, etc. is displayed, and inside that is "January".
A calendar month base such as "February" may or may not be written. Furthermore, the day of the week panel may be a short horizontal bar (hyphen) of each color, and in that case, each calendar month base may or may not be written along with the horizontal bar. . Furthermore, as the day of the week frame 32, a display may be used in which "January", "February", etc. are simply written in the respective colors. In short, a specific color may be associated with each day of the week frame 32.

The day of the week pieces 32 may be arranged vertically instead of horizontally. Furthermore, the 12 day of the week frames for each calendar year may be arranged in two rows.

Displays in the calendar year heading column 28 include, in addition to those shown in the figure, rl 988J r88J r'88""8
8th year” “-9th year J rIIX■■” “Showa 6th year
Any display that makes it easy to understand the calendar year in question may be used, such as "3 years."

Also, the display on day frame 32 is “January” and “February”.
etc., instead of rlJ r2", "I"rn", "-"
"Two",rJanuaryjrFebruary',r
Jan, J rFeb.

In short, any characters, numbers, symbols, etc. that can be used to identify the calendar month are sufficient.

In this embodiment, the day of the week display section 14 displays all Sundays of each month. However, instead of this,
Monday, Tuesday, or any other day of the week may be displayed. In short, it is sufficient to display the same day of the week throughout each calendar month in each calendar year. For example, when trying to display Monday of each calendar month in the day of the week display section 14, for example,
In January 1989, Mondays are the 2nd, 9th, and 16th.
1, 23, and 30, in the day of the week display section in Figure 1, 19 is displayed in the same color as the navy blue given to these calendar days.
Color the day of the week frames for January 1989.

4 and 5 are examples of changes in the arrangement of 31 numbers indicating "1st to 31st" in the calendar date display section 12, respectively. In this case, the day of the week display section 14 is the same as that shown in FIG.

The details and operation of the calendar date display section 12 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 are described in U.S. Pat.
Please refer to the specification of No. 176578. In the following, we will only briefly describe the configuration.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the calendar date display section 12 is configured as follows. In the first vertical column, that is, the leftmost column, the numbers "1, 2°3" are arranged, and in the second vertical column, r4.5.6.74.
Each number is arranged differently. In other words, "4
” is placed above the number “1”, the number “5” is placed between the numbers “1” and “2”, and the number “6” is placed above the number “2” and “3”. The number "7" is placed below the number "3". Similarly, in the third column, r8.9. If the IOJ number is between "4" and "5", "5" and "6", or "6", respectively
and "7". Similarly, in the fourth column, the numbers "11 to 14" correspond to the numbers "4 to 14" in the second column.
The numbers ``7'' are arranged in the same position as the numbers ``15-17'' in the fifth column, and the numbers ``8-10'' in the third column.
It is placed in the same position as the number. Similarly,
The numbers "18-21" are in the sixth column, the numbers "22-24" are in the seventh column, and the numbers "22-24" are in the eighth column.
The numbers 5 to 28 are also 29 to 28 in the ninth column.
The numbers ``31'' are placed on each.

In addition, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the numbers ``1°2.3, 4J'' are arranged in the first column in the vertical direction, that is, the leftmost column, and in the second column in the vertical direction. , "5"
The number "6" is placed between the numbers "2" and "3", the number "7" is placed between the numbers "3" and " It is placed between the numbers 4. In the third column, the number "8" is placed above the number "1", i.e., the number "5", and the number "9" is placed above the number "5".
” and “6”, the number “10” is placed between “6” and “7”, and the number “11” is placed between “4”, that is, “7”.
” is placed below. Similarly, in the fourth column, the numbers "12 to 14" correspond to the numbers "5 to 7" in the second column.
are placed in the same position as the numbers in the fifth column.
The numbers "15-18" are placed in the same positions as the numbers "8-11" in the third column. Thereafter, in the same way, the numbers "19 to 21" in the sixth column, the numbers "22 to 25" in the seventh column, and the numbers "26 to 25" in the eighth column.
-28'' numbers are arranged.

In the ninth column, numbers "29 to 31" are arranged. At this time, the number "29" becomes "
Above ``26'', the number ``30'' is ``26'' and ``27''.
In addition, the number "31" is "27" and "28"
The number ``25'' is left blank.

As mentioned above, in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, 3
Since the 1 digits and the 4 digits are arranged differently from each other, the advantage of identifying the 7 groups of digits by color is even greater.

In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, rows of numbers such as "1-3" and "4-7" or rows of numbers such as "1-4" and "5-7" are arranged in the vertical direction. Alternatively, these numbers may be arranged horizontally. In that case, rows of identically colored numbers appear vertically.

In each of the above embodiments, the day of the week display section 14E
The day of the week display column 28 for each year in this column displays several years together in one place below the calendar day display section 12. Alternatively, the day of the week display section 14 made up of a group of day of the week display columns 28 for several years may be arranged above, on the left side, or on the right side of the calendar day display section 12. Furthermore, such a group of day of the week display columns may be written on a relatively large sheet of paper at a location away from the calendar day display section.

Furthermore, as shown in Figure 6, the day of the week display column 2 for each year
8 to 285 may be displayed separately from each other. In FIG. 6, the same calendar date display section 12 as in FIG. 1 is printed,
Each day of the week display field 28, to 285 is schematically indicated by a horizontally long two-dot chain frame line.

Between the numbers “1 to 7” on the top line of the calendar day display section 12 and the numbers “8 to 14” on the next line, there is a day of the week display column 281 shown in FIG. 2 for 1988. Same day of the week display column 2

．． It may be arranged between the rows of 20.27J and r7, 14, and 21.28J.

Furthermore, day of the week display columns 281 to 284 for four years may be arranged to surround the four circumferences of the calendar day display section. Alternatively, the columns for two years may be arranged on the second side, and the columns for three years may be arranged on the third side.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 and the modification thereof described above, the day of the week display columns are displayed separately from each other, so the day of the week display columns for two consecutive calendar years are arranged adjacent to each other. There is no difference between them, and the distinction between them is clear.

FIG. 7 shows a modification example of the day of the week display section 14 in FIG.
Instead of changing the color of the day of the week frame 32 in 8 to match the color of the calendar day in the calendar day display section 12, the color is changed for each day of the week display field 28, to 287 of each year. For example, the day of the week display field 28□ for 1988 is colored gold, the day of the week display field 28° for 1989 is colored silver, and 1
The day of the week display column 283 for the year 990 is brown, 1991
The day of the week display column 284 for the year is colored brightly, 1992.
The day of the week display field 285 for the year is cream colored, 1993.
The day of the week display column 286 for the year 2008 is colored yellow-green, and the day of the week display column 287 for 1994 is colored violet.

2 inside each day of the week frame 32 like r'1-3J
Two numbers are displayed with a hyphen.

To explain the day of the week frames 32 belonging to the day of the week display field 28 on the first line, each day of the week frame from the leftmost day of the week frame to the rightmost day of the week frame has "1-3J""2-7J
r3-6J r4-3" r5-IJ r6-5
J r7-3J r8-7J r9-4JrlO
-2J rll-6J rl2-4J is displayed.

In the display of each day of the week frame 32, the first number, that is, the number before the hyphen, indicates the calendar month to which each day of the week frame 32 corresponds. In other words, if "1-3" is displayed,
The display of r2-7J indicates that it is a day of the week frame for January, and the display of r2-7J indicates that it is a day of the week frame for February.

Among the displays in each day of the week frame 32, the last number, that is, the number after the hyphen, indicates the calendar day corresponding to the first Sunday in the calendar month to which the day of the week frame belongs. For example, in 1988, the day of the week frame 32 at the left end of the day of the week display column 28□
is displayed as rl-3J, which indicates that the first Sunday of January of this year is the 3rd. In the day of the week frame 18 to the right, r2-7J is displayed, indicating that the first Sunday of February of this year is the 7th.

Also, the display in the day frame 32 is "January 3rd" and "January 3Jr13Jrl/3J" instead of rl-3J etc.
rl:3J r■3J rl 3J, etc., or by using different colors for "1" and "3", the key is to clearly distinguish and recognize the characters indicating the calendar month and the letters indicating the calendar day. It's fine as long as it's possible.

By doing so, the day of the week display columns for each year can be easily identified. In this case, each day of the week display column 28
It is preferable to use colors of 28□ that are different from the seven colors in the calendar day display section to avoid confusion.

The calendar of the present invention can be used not only as a calendar but also printed on the surface of shopping bags, bank passbook bags, telephone cards, and any other items. It may also be used in conjunction with a regular calendar by printing it next to it.

Furthermore, it is within the scope of the present invention to store the information on a floppy disk or other magnetic medium and display it on a display as necessary.

The calendar date display section of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. This invention includes a case where the numbers are arranged in a straight line from "1" to "31", and various other embodiments are included in the present invention.
