Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a business card excellent in publicity effect and durable without remarkably increasing it in manufacturing cost by a method wherein at least a part of the component member of the business card serves as a solar cell, and a built-in and/or an external electronic equipment is driven by the use of a power generated by the solar cell concerned. CONSTITUTION:A built-in autodialer is driven by a power generated by an amorphous silicon solar cell 102 mounted on a business card 101. The autodialer designated the telephone on the other end of telephone lines by sending pulse sounds corespondent to the telephone number concerned to the receiver of a touch tone phone. The telephone line is connected in such a manner that the pulse sounds corresponding to the telephone number previously set in an IC 106 built in the business card are sent to a telephone by pressing a pressure sensitive switch 13 as making a speaker 104 abutt against the transmitter of the telephone.

A business card is a card that informs the recipient of one's affiliation, name, contact information, etc., and has information written thereon to save the trouble of recording the information. Meeting, its storage and portability
-Most of the cards were thin card-shaped. That is, the above-mentioned items were mainly recorded by printing on a card-sized paper substrate.

In addition, despite the various innovations that have been applied to traditional business cards, and the novelty of printing methods and materials, business cards themselves have a unique function, although they only make a deep impression when you see them for the first time. Therefore, there was a drawback that the advertising effect was not sustainable. Even when a prepaid card such as a telephone card is used, it has the disadvantage that once it has been used for many years, it becomes less impressive like other cards.
