Abstract

The sheet (10) of paper or any other similar material is prepared in such a way that it features a first series of zigzag folds (12) and a second one (14) which is at a right angle to the first one and made after the sheet (10) was folded along the first series of zigzag folds, while the sheet can be unfolded without the folds (12, 14) to disappear and can be refolded. The sheet features two segments (20, 22) which are in diagonally opposite corners (24, 26) of the sheet (10) or near them and are determined by the folds (12, 14) and/or edges (28, 39). The sheet features means (181, 19, 21) for forming a stiff or semi-stiff section (16, 18) for at least one of the specified segments (20, 22) while the specified means (181, 19, 21) include at least two panels (181, 19, 21), which are hinged for mutual folding to create the specified section (16, 18), adapted to serve as a handle for folding and/or unfolding the sheet (10). The sheet (10) can be held and unfolded by a single move and if possible by using one hand only.

Zganjeno gradivo kot polaStacked material as a pole

Izum se nanaša na zganjeno gradivo kot polo ne oziraje se na to, ali je pola zganjena ali ne.The invention relates to ground material as polo, regardless of whether the pole is ground or not.

Znano je, da zemljevide zganejo najprej po prvih cikcak zgibih, t.j. zgibih, katerih vsak drugi zgib je pročelni oziroma hrbtni, in nato, ko je zemljevid tako zganjen, jih zganejo še po drugih zgibih, ki so vodoravni in niso cikcakasti. Tudi je znano, da je sestavni del zemljevida togosten odsek, ki se razteza po celotnem vogalnem segmentu, ki ga tvorijo zgibi, in onstran le-tega za podobno polje izven zemljevida, tako da se da, ko je zemljevid zganjen, zunanji ojačani odsek zapogniti preko zemljevida, tako da zemljevid v celoti sprejmeta dva dela ojačanega odseka, ki sta medsebojno šamirsko spojena.It is known that maps collapse first after the first zigzag folds, i.e. joints whose every other joint is front or back, and then when folded so folded, they are folded over other joints that are horizontal and not zigzag. It is also known that an integral part of the map is a rigid section extending over the entire corner segment formed by the folds and beyond it for a similar field outside the map such that, when the map is folded, the outer reinforced section can be folded across the map so that the map is fully embraced by two sections of reinforced section that are shamirically interconnected.

V sledečem opisu in patentnih zahtevkih pojem gradivo kot pola pomeni gradivo v obliki pole, ki ima zgibne črte, ne glede na to, ali pola je ali ni v zganjenem stanju, razen če iz konteksta ne izhaja drugače, in razen tega pomeni gradivo, ki ima zgibne črte, po katerih ga zlahka razgrnemo (ne da bi zgibne črte zginile) in ponovno zganemo. Gradivo je lahko papir ali papirju podoben material, kot so plastične pole, na kakršnem se običajno tiskajo knjige, lahko pa je zelo tanek karton ali kak drug primeren gibek material. Možno je, da je gradivo v obliki pol togo, razen pri zgibih, denimo da gre za zelo tanke karte, ki so povezane s papirjem ali blagom, vendar to obliko odvračamo, saj ne omogoča uresničitve prednosti izuma.In the following description and claims, the term material as a pole means material in the form of a sheet having hinged lines, whether or not the pole is in a collapsed state, unless otherwise derived from the context, and in addition means material which it has hinged lines that make it easy to pull apart (without the hinged lines disappear) and re-fold. The material may be paper or paper-like material, such as plastic sheets on which books are usually printed, but may be very thin cardboard or other suitable flexible material. The material may be semi-rigid except for folds, such as very thin paper or fabric related cards, but this shape is discouraged as it does not allow the advantages of the invention to be realized.

Eden od ciljev izuma je ustvariti polo gradiva, kakršna je opredeljena v zahtevku 1. Drug cilj izuma je ustvariti polo gradiva, kakršna je opredeljena v zahtevku 14. Preostale značilnosti izvedbenih primerov so lahko take, kot so podane v zahtevkih 2-13.One object of the invention is to create a polo material as defined in claim 1. Another object of the invention is to create a polo material as defined in claim 14. The remaining features of the embodiments may be as given in claims 2-13.

Oprijemljivo tog ali napol tog odsek olajšuje prijemanje pole pri zgibanju in razgrinjanju. Zgibalna panelna forma omenjenega odseka lajša izdelavo v gotovih okoliščinah in/ali ločevanje, kot je definirano v zahtevku 8, omenjenega panela od omenjene pole, naprimer da služi kot dokazilo. Boljšo togost in stabilnost nudijo trije paneli, kot je definirano v zahtevku 2, in ob predpostavki, da so paneli skupaj zganjeni, kot je določeno v zahtevku 9. Dve omenjeni, diagonalno nasprotni si sredstvi, kot je definirano v zahtevku 3, omogočata, da polo gradiva razgrnemo v enem samem gibu, ko ena roka zgrabi enega od togih odsekov in druga roka povleče drugi togi odsek proč od prvega. Značilnosti zahtevkov 4-7, 9 in 10 pomenijo izdelovalne prednosti v raznih okoliščinah.A tangibly rigid or semi-rigid section facilitates the grip of the sheet when folding and unfolding. The folding panel form of said section facilitates fabrication under certain circumstances and / or separation, as defined in claim 8, of said panel from said sheet, for example to serve as evidence. Better rigidity and stability are provided by the three panels as defined in claim 2, and assuming that the panels are jointly folded as defined in claim 9. The two mentioned, diagonally opposite means, as defined in claim 3, allow The polo material is unfolded in a single motion when one hand grabs one of the rigid sections and the other hand pulls the other rigid section away from the first. The features of claims 4-7, 9 and 10 imply manufacturing advantages in various circumstances.

Dasiravno je eden ali sta oba niza zgibov nevzporedna, t.j. konvergentna, in/ali eden ali oba toga odseka, ko je pola primerno zganjena, nista nujno zunanja odseka, je v prednostni izvedbi pola pravokotniška, tako da sta niza zgibov medsebojno pravokotna in vzporedna s pripadajočima robovoma pole, toga odseka pa taka, da se nahajata zunaj pole, ko je le-ta zganjena po prvem nizu zgibov in zatem tudi še po drugem nizu zgibov, in sta vsaj tolikšne širine kot zadevna vogalna segmenta pole.One or two sets of joints are non-parallel, i.e. converging, and / or one or both rigid sections, when the pole is properly folded, not necessarily the outer segments, is preferably rectangular in such a way that the series of joints are perpendicular to each other and parallel to the respective edges of the pole and such that the rigid sections are such that located outside the sheet when it is folded after the first set of joints and then also after the second set of joints, and is at least as wide as the respective corner segments of the sheet.

V tem primeru, še zlasti, če prvi niz sestoji iz lihega števila zgibov in drugi niz iz sodega števila zgibov, ena roka lahko zgrabi hrbtni togi odsek, medtem ko druga roka lahko zgrabi prednji togi odsek in ga povleče sprva dol in zatem vstran s prevračanjem le-tega, tako da se pola toliko odpre, kolikor v praksi pomeni en sam gib, ob predpostavki, da je pola pri zgibih in blizu njih gibka. S poskusi smo prišli do zelo primernega zgibanja za dosego te akcije, ki obsega pet zgibov v prvem nizu in dva zgiba v drugem nizu. In če sta toga odseka za malenkost večja od zadevnih vogalnih segmentov pole, toga odseka laže primemo. Tudi je sorazmerno enostavno obrniti akcijo in polo spet zganiti z enim samim gibom. S tem dobimo posebno prikladno izvedbo, ki jo hitro lahko razgrnemo in spet hitro zganemo brez nepotrebnega zapravljanja časa.In this case, especially if the first set consists of an odd number of joints and the second set an even number of joints, one arm can grab the back rigid section, while the other arm can grab the front rigid section and pull it down first and then sideways with a rollover such that the pole opens as much as in practice means a single motion, assuming that the pole is flexible at and near the joints. With the experiments we came up with a very convenient joint to achieve this action, which includes five joints in the first set and two joints in the second set. And if the rigid sections are slightly larger than the corresponding corner segments of the sheet, the rigid sections are easier to grasp. It is also relatively easy to reverse the action and rotate the polo in one go. This gives us a particularly convenient version that can be quickly unwrapped and quickly re-burned without wasting time.

Izum je zlasti primeren za tiskano gradivo v polah, namenjeno za prenašanje naokoli v žepu (denimo za spodaj nakazane namene), za kar zgibi lahko delijo gradivo na segmente širine okoli 4 do 8 cm krat dolžine okoli 6 do 12 cm. Prednostno je, da je paket kot celota okvirno velikosti kreditne kartice, torej da zgibi delijo gradivo pravokotno na segmente velikosti okoli 5 do 5½ cm po širini krat okoli 8 do 8½ cm po dolžini.The invention is particularly suitable for printed material in sheets intended for carrying around in a pocket (for example for the purposes indicated below), for which the joints may divide the material into segments about 4 to 8 cm wide by about 6 to 12 cm long. Preferably, the package as a whole is indicative of the size of the credit card, so that the joints divide the material perpendicularly into segments of about 5 to 5½ cm in width by about 8 to 8½ cm in length.

V prednostni izvedbi je gradivo (z izjemo togih odsekov) papir ali papirju podoben material (npr. plastika), medtem ko sta toga odseka iz poltrdega gradiva, ki je načeloma plastika, priključena k drugemu gradivu.In a preferred embodiment, the material (with the exception of rigid sections) is paper or paper-like material (eg plastic), while rigid sections of semi-rigid material, which is generally plastic, are connected to other material.

Za izvedbeni primer, ki je s pridom uporaben v nerodnih situacijah, gre tedaj, če je vsaj eden od omenjenih diagonalno nasprotnih si togih odsekov (običajno prednji) zadosti masiven, da omogoča držanje in odpiranje pole z eno roko. V tem primeru hrbtni togi odsek držimo v eni roki, pri čemer masivni prednji odsek lahkotno leži na drugem, zganjenem gradivu, nato pa hrbtni odsek sunkoma potegnemo, tako da masivni prednji odsek odleti proč od prijetega hrbtnega odseka, s čimer je samodejno omogočeno hkrati držanje in odpiranje z eno roko.An embodiment that is advantageously useful in awkward situations is when at least one of the said diagonally opposite rigid sections (usually the front) is sufficiently massive to allow one hand to be held and opened. In this case, the back rigid section is held in one hand, with the massive front section easily resting on the other, folded material, and then the back section is jerked so that the massive front section flies away from the gripped back section, allowing automatic holding simultaneously and opening with one hand.

V nadaljnjem si bomo pomagali z izvedbenim primerom, predstavljenim na priloženih listih skic, v katerih kažejo sl. 1 do 4 zaporedne stopnje odpiranja, t.j. razgrinjanja dane izvedbe izuma (od sl. 1 do sl. 4) oziroma obrnjeno zaporedje (od sl. 4 k sl. 1), ki ga kažeta puščici, zgibanja danega izvedbenega primera, sl. 5 alternativne značilnosti, sl. 6 do 8 alternativne ureditve panelov togega ali poltogega odseka, sl. 9 do 11 pa alternativne ureditve panelov kot nadaljevanja pole.In the following, we will refer to the embodiment illustrated in the accompanying sketches in which Figs. 1 to 4 consecutive opening rates, i.e. unfolding a given embodiment of the invention (from Fig. 1 to Fig. 4) or inverted sequence (from Fig. 4 to Fig. 1) shown by the arrows, folding a given embodiment, Fig. 5 shows alternative features, FIG. 6 to 8 alternate arrangement of panels of rigid or semi-rigid section, FIG. 9 to 11 alternatively arrange the panels as a continuation of the sheet.

Opis v nadaljnjem temelji na skicah. Sklicevalne številke elementov različnih izvedbenih primerov so grajene po naslednjem pravilu: številke, ki vsebujejo isto prvo dvojico cifer, označujejo elemente, ki imajo podobno funkcijo, in nekatere od njih v tem opisu niso eksplicitno omenjene ali funkcije elementov ne podrobno opisane, kjer gre za funkcijo, ki je očitna.The description below is based on the sketches. The reference numbers of the elements of the various embodiments are constructed according to the following rule: numbers containing the same first pair of digits indicate elements that have a similar function, some of which are not explicitly mentioned in this description or the function of the elements is not described in detail where the function is concerned. which is obvious.

Če pogledamo skice, predvsem sl. 4, vidimo, da ima pola 10 papirja, ki je pola iz gradiva, kakršno smo opredelili zgoraj, prvi niz cikcakastih zgibov 12 in - ko je pola zganjena po teh prvih zgibih, kot kaže sl. 3 - drugi niz cikcakastih zgibov 14, pri čemer je pola opremljena z dvema togima odsekoma 16, 18, ki imata definirane robove in sta razporejena nasprotno si drug glede drugega pri segmentih 20, 22 pole 10, s tem da sta omenjena segmenta pri diagonalno nasprotnih si vogalih 24, 26 pole ali blizu njih in ju določajo zgibi 12,14 ter robovi 28,30 pole 10.Looking at the sketches, especially FIG. 4, we see that the sheet 10, which is a sheet of material as defined above, has the first set of zigzag joints 12 and - when the sheet is folded after these first folds, as shown in FIG. 3 is a second set of zigzag joints 14, wherein the pole is provided with two rigid sections 16, 18 having defined edges and arranged opposite each other in segments 20, 22 of field 10, with said segments being diagonally opposite the corners 24, 26 of or near the pole, defined by the joints 12.14 and the edges 28.30 of the pole 10.

Pola 10, ko je sploščena, je pravokotniška, kot zlahka povzamemo s sl. 4, tako da sta niza zgibov 12, 14 medsebojno pravokotna in vzporedna z zadevnimi robovi 28, 30 pole 10, toga odseka 16, 18 pa taka, da se nahajata zunaj pole 10, ko je ta zganjena po prvem nizu zgibov 12 (sl. 3) in nato še po drugem nizu zgibov 14 (sl. 1), pri čemer sta toga odseka 16,18 vsaj tolikšna kot pripadajoča vogalna segmenta 20,22 pole 10.Half 10, when flattened, is rectangular, as can be easily summarized in FIG. 4, such that the sets of joints 12, 14 are perpendicular to each other and parallel to the respective edges 28, 30 of the box 10, and the rigid sections 16, 18 are such that they are outside the box 10 when it is folded after the first set of joints 12 (FIG. 3) and then after the second set of joints 14 (Fig. 1), the rigid sections 16.18 being at least as large as the corresponding corner segments 20.22 of the box 10.

S skice sl. 4 vidimo, da prvi niz obsega neparno število zgibov 12, dejansko pet zgibov, drugi niz pa obsega parno ševilo zgibov 14, dejansko dva zgiba.From the sketch of FIG. 4, we see that the first set comprises an odd number of joints 12, in fact five joints, and the second set comprises an even number of joints 14, in fact two joints.

Zaradi olajšanja prijemanja in zaščite pole 10 in njenih zgibov 12, 14, kot je bilo povedano zgoraj, sta toga odseka 16, 18 dejansko malenkostno večja od zadevnih vogalnih segmentov 20, 22 pole 10, mgoče 2 mm na vsaki strani, če so segmenti velikosti kreditne kartice, kot je obravnavano spodaj (in zgoraj).In order to facilitate gripping and protection of the pole 10 and its joints 12, 14, as stated above, the rigid sections 16, 18 are actually slightly larger than the respective corner segments 20, 22 of the pole 10, 2 mm thick on each side if the segments are of size credit cards as discussed below (and above).

Namen izvedbe je primarno uporaba kot žepna naprava in zato je prednostna velikost vseh njenih segmentov 17 po sl. 4, na katere je pola 10 deljena z zgibi 12 in 14, okoli 4 do 8 cm po širini in okoli 6 do 12 cm po dolžini. Najprikladnejša velikost je nekako tista od standardne kreditne kartice, tako da je pola 10 gradiva deljena pravokotno na segmente velikosti okoli 5 do 5½ cm po širini krat okoli 8 do 8½ cm po dolžini.The purpose of the embodiment is primarily to be used as a pocket device and therefore the preferred size of all its segments is 17 according to FIG. 4, to which pole 10 is divided by joints 12 and 14, about 4 to 8 cm in width and about 6 to 12 cm in length. The most appropriate size is somehow the same as a standard credit card, so that half of the 10 material is divided perpendicularly into segments of about 5 to 5 po cm in width by about 8 to 8½ cm in length.

Toga odseka 16, 18 sta smotrno iz plastičnega gradiva, kakršno je običajno v rabi za kreditne kartice. S tem je omogočeno, da odsek 16 zgrabimo z levo roko in vržemo odsek 18 navzven in dol v desno, kot vidimo na skicah, tako da se pola 10 sama od sebe razgrne, izvajajoča pri tem položaje, ki so zaporedoma predstavljeni na skicah sl. 2 do 4. Odsek 18 tedaj lahko primemo z desno roko in ga rahlo potegnemo proč od odseka 16, da držimo polo zravnano in lahko z nje beremo. Da polo 10 zganemo, primemo za odseka 16 in 18 z levo in desno roko, s tem da sta dlani obrnjeni k opazovalcu sl. 4, nakar odsek 18 z desno roko premaknemo v smeri puščice 38 proti levi in obrnemo odsek 18, tako da le-ta in pola 10 prispeta v lego, ki jo kaže sl. 3. Gibanje nato nadaljujemo v smeri gor, čez in nazaj, kot kaže puščica 40, in zaporedoma v položaja, ki ju kažeta sl. 2 in sl. 1.Sections 16, 18 of this section are expediently made of plastic material as is customary for credit cards. This enables the section 16 to be grabbed with the left hand and to throw the section 18 outwards and downwards to the right, as seen in the drawings, so that the pole 10 itself unfolds itself, performing the positions which are presented in sequence in the drawings of FIG. 2 to 4. Section 18 can then be grasped with the right hand and gently pulled away from section 16 to hold the pole straight and readable. To fold the polo 10, hold the left and right arms for sections 16 and 18, with the palms facing the observer of FIG. 4, then move the section 18 with the right hand in the direction of the arrow 38 towards the left and rotate the section 18 so that it and the pole 10 arrive in the position shown in FIG. 3. The movement is then continued in the up, over and back directions, as indicated by arrow 40, and successively in the positions shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 1.

V alternativni izvedbi ostane obrobni segment 42 normalno zganjen, naprimer za prikrivanje teksta, vogalni segment, o katerem je govor zgoraj, pa je na sl. 5 tisti, ki nosi številko 22. Ta je tu določen z robom 28 in dvema zgiboma 14 in 44. Zgib 44 ni del cikcakastih zgibov 14, čeprav poteka v isti smeri kot sosedni zgib 14, kot ga kaže sl. 5.In an alternative embodiment, the peripheral segment 42 remains normally folded, for example to conceal text, and the corner segment discussed above is in FIG. 5, which bears the number 22. This is defined here by the edge 28 and the two joints 14 and 44. The joint 44 is not part of the zigzag joints 14, although it extends in the same direction as the adjacent joint 14, as shown in FIG. 5.

Eden ali oba odseka 16, 18 sta lahko narejena iz panelov 181, 19, 21 po kateri koli skici sl. 6-11.One or both of sections 16, 18 may be made of panels 181, 19, 21 according to any one of FIGS. 6-11.

V predstavitvi po skicah sl. 4 in 6 je pola 10 papirja ali podobnega gradiva prirejena tako, da ima prvi niz cikcakastih zgibov 12 in prečno nanje, toda šele ko je pola 10 zganjena po teh prvih zgibih, drugi niz cikcakastih zgibov 14, pri čemer po zgibih 12, 14 polo 10 lahko razgrnemo, ne da zgibi zginejo, in jo ponovno zganemo in pri čemer sta sestavni del pole 10 dva segmenta 20, 22, ki sta pri diagonalno nasprotnih si vogalih 24, 26 pole 10 ali blizu njih in ju določajo) zgib 12, 14 in/ali njen(i) rob(ovi) 28, 30. Pola 10 ima pri vsaj enem od omenjenih segmentov 20, 22 sredstva 181,19,21 za oblikovanje togega ali poltogega odseka 16, 18, ki vsebujejo vsaj dva panela 181, 19, 21, ki sta šamirsko zvezana za potrebe zgibanja za oblikovanje omenjenega odseka 16,18, prirejenega za prijemanje pri zgibanju in/ali razgrinjanju pole 10. Polo 10 lahko razgrnemo z enim samim gibom in po možnosti ob uporabi ene same roke za prijem in razgmjenje pole 10.In the drawing, FIG. 4 and 6, the pole 10 of paper or similar material is arranged to have the first set of zigzag joints 12 and transverse to them, but only when the pole 10 is folded after these first joints, the second set of zigzag joints 14, wherein after the joints 12, 14 10 can be expanded without folding and disappearing again, with two segments 20, 22 being integral part of the pole 10, which are at or near the diagonally opposite corners 24, 26 of the pole 10 and defining them). and / or its edge (s) 28, 30. For at least one of said segments 20, 22, pole 10 has means 181,19,21 for forming a rigid or semi-rigid section 16, 18 containing at least two panels 181, 19, 21, which are shamirically linked for folding purposes to form said section 16,18 adapted for gripping when folding and / or unfolding the pole 10. The pole 10 can be opened in a single motion and preferably using a single gripping arm and demolition of pole 10.

Omenjena sredstva 181,19, 21 smotrno obsegajo tri omenjene panele 181, 19, 21, ki so medsebojno šarnirsko zvezani, da se lahko zganejo skupaj in tvorijo en omenjeni odsek 16,18 prirejen za prijem pri zganjenju in/ali razgrinjanju pole 10.Said means 181,19, 21 preferably comprise three of said panels 181, 19, 21, which are pivotally interconnected so that they can be folded together to form one said section 16,18 adapted for gripping when cutting and / or unfolding the shelf 10.

Pola 10 ima diagonalno nasprotni si omenjeni sredstvi 181,19, 21, eno na vsakem od omenjenih segmentov 20,22.Pole 10 has diagonally opposite said means 181,19, 21, one on each of said segments 20,22.

Skice sl. 6 do 8 kažejo alternativne ureditve panelov 18, 19, 21, pri katerih so omenjena sredstva priključena k poli 10. Debelina panelov lahko znaša okoli 7 μτη, tako da skupaj zloženi naberejo debelino kreditne kartice, okoli 20 μτα, in so prednostno iz zganljivega poltogega plastičnega gradiva.Figs. 6 to 8 show alternative arrangements of panels 18, 19, 21 in which said means are connected to a poly 10. The thickness of the panels may be about 7 μτη, so that when stacked together they accumulate a credit card thickness of about 20 μτα and are preferably made of a flexible semi-rigid plastic material.

V ureditvi po sl. 9 paneli 31, 33, 35 tvorijo podaljške pole 10. Perforacije na zgibnih črtah 37 zagotavljajo, da vsak panel lahko preprosto odtrgamo denimo za uporabo kot dokazilo.In the arrangement of FIG. 9 panels 31, 33, 35 form the extensions of the pole 10. The perforations on the hinge lines 37 ensure that each panel can be easily torn off, for example, for use as evidence.

V ureditvah po sl. 10 in 11 omenjeni segment 185 tvori omenjeni panel iz omen6 jenega sredstva 185, 195, 215, 235, omenjeni paneli 185, 195, 215, 235 omenjenih sredstev 186,196,216 pa so del omenjene pole 10.In the arrangements of FIG. 10 and 11, said segment 185 forms said panel of said means 185, 195, 215, 235, and said panels 185, 195, 215, 235 of said means 186,196,216 form part of said field 10.

V ureditvi po sl. 10 je črtkana črta 375 perforirana za preprosto trganje, tako da panela 235 in 215 nato lahko preprosto zapognemo na panel 195 in vse te nato zapognemo na panel 185, da nastane omenjeni poltogi odsek, ki se, če ga držimo na dveh nasprotnih si robovih med kazalcem in palcem, ne more razgrniti, ampak se drži, kot da je tog. Vsaj enega od omenjenih panelov, npr. 235, lahko priredimo z dodatnimi perforacijami vzdolž njegovega vrhnjega roba, da ga lahko odstranimo od omenjene pole 10.In the arrangement of FIG. 10, the dashed line 375 is perforated for easy tearing, so that panels 235 and 215 can then be simply folded onto panel 195 and all then bent onto panel 185 to form said semi-rigid section which, if held at two opposite edges between his index finger and thumb, he can not unfold, but he acts as if he were rigid. At least one of the panels mentioned, e.g. 235, additional perforations along its top edge can be adjusted to remove it from said sheet 10.

S pomočjo denimo lepila, varjenja plastike ali impregnacije in sušenja lahko omenjene panele 181, 19, 21 omenjenih sredstev 181, 19, 21 fiksimo zganemo skupaj, da dobimo tog omenjeni odsek 16,18.By means of, for example, adhesive, plastic welding or impregnation and drying, said panels 181, 19, 21 of said means 181, 19, 21 can be fixed together to form a rigid section 16.18.

Omenjeni paneli 181, 19, 21 omenjenega sredstva 181, 19, 21 so spet lahko prirejeni za razgmljivo (t.j. tako, da jih lahko razgrnemo) zganjenje skupaj za nastanek poltogega omenjenga odseka 16,18.Said panels 181, 19, 21 of said means 181, 19, 21 may again be adapted for a flexible (i.e., so that they can be expanded) joint together to form a semi-rigid said section 16,18.

S tem, ko je vsa pola zganjena v velikost, ki je podobna velikosti kreditnih kartic, jo lahko damo v standrdno listnico za kartice.
