Application February 19, 1946, Serial No. 648,725
(Cl. 40--110i) Claims. 1
This invention relates to an indicator for calendars and the like and more particularly to an adjustable device for indicating the particular day on the top sheet of superposed calendar sheets.
It is an object of the invention to provide a calendar pad with a member which is secured to a backing sheet or element for the pad and which holds a date indicating device overlying the pad or calendar sheets so that the topmost sheet is in the provision of certain characters on the backing sheet or element which is not occupied by the calendar sheets so that the transparent covering sheet will not only cover the calendar sheets, but also extend over the portions of the backing element on which the characters appear.
Further objects will be apparent from the following description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of the entire calendar and indicator,
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of a modified structure, and
Fig. 3 is a side view of the calendar and indicator of Fig. 1.
The calendar pad or sheets 5 are mounted on a backing sheet or element I6 in any suitable manner as, for instance, by means of staples or for instance frictionally held together with the metal edging of the calendar back or in any other way, and the pad 5 thus comprises a plurality of superposed sheets corresponding to the months of the year. As shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the pad 5 is covered with a transparent sheet 6 of a flexible material which is for instance suitably stapled at I1 to the, backing sheet I6. The sheet 6 may be made of any suitable material such as Celluloid, cellophane or any clear plastic sheet material. As best seen in Fig. 1 the sheet 6 preferably covers not only the calendar pad 5, but also any characters or printed matter I8 appearing on the backing sheet I5.
An elongated strip portion l extends across the calendar pad 5 on and over the sheet 5 and is provided at each end with a clip or clamping means 2 which preferably extends around and in mounted on the sheet 8.
back of the sheet '6. The clips 2 exert a slight force on the sheet 6 so that the strip portion is slidably A preferably square or rectangular framing element 3 is slidably mounted on the strip portion I to slide thereon and to frame a respective numeral on the topmost calendar sheet of the pad or sheets 5. To frictionally mount the framing element Son the strip portion I the framing element 3 is provided with "a pair of spaced slots 4 and thus the element 3 may be moved laterally acrossthe calendar sheet 5 on the sheet 6.
As to the operation of the calendar of Fig. I it is believed to be obvious as to the adjustment of. the strip portion I down along the sheet 6 and the framing element 3 laterally along the strip .portion I to frame the particular number corresponding to the day of the month. When the last day has been reached the next or first day of the following month is indicated by merely lifting the sheet 6 together with the strip portion I and framing element 3 relative to the top of the sheet 6 adjacent the staples ll to thereby reach the topmost calendar sheet and tear it from the pad. The sheet 6 is then lowered, the strip I is slidably moved upwardly and the framing element 3 is adjusted to indicate by framing the first day of the next month.
In the modification of Fig. 2 the sheet 6 is omitted and instead the strip I with the framing element 3 is slidably mounted on a rectangular frame I9 of a material such, for instance, as cardboard having a central opening of a size to permit visual observation of the entire topmost calendar sheet 5. The frame I9 is suitably mounted by staples Il or in any other suitable manner on the backing sheet l6 and the strip I is provided with clips 2 to frictionally hold the strip I in its adjusted position. When it is desired to remove the topmost calendar sheet 5, it is merely necessary to lift the frame I9 together with the strip I and framing element 3 to thus tear the topmost sheet from the pad. The frame-like side bars which as per Fig. 2, for instance, is the member to act as a carrier for the elongated strip can be arranged over or beside the calendar pad in any size or arrangement, for instance, fully or partly framing the calendar pad, and in accordance to the numeral arrangement on the pad to hold the strip movable in a horizontal or vertical direction.
As will be obvious from Figs. 1 to 3, the calendar indicator includes, among other features, a backing element on which the calendar sheets are mounted and a member secured to the backing element allowing visibility of the topmost sheet of the calendar pad.
The accompanying drawing is not intended to limit my invention in any way or manner. It is expressly emphasized that the scope of this invention is not to be construed as limited by the drawings, or by the description, as many other modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of my invention within the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. An indicator for a plurality of superposed calendar sheets and the like, comprising a backing element on which the calendar sheets are mounted, a member secured to the backing element and overlying the calendar sheets with a portion thereof through which the topmost sheet is visible, an elongated strip portion for the member and having a clip on each end thereof to slidably mount the strip portion on the member, and a framing element slidably mounted on the strip portion to slide thereon and to frame a respective numeral on the topmost calendar sheet, said member being mounted along a portion thereof on the backing element so that the member with the elongated strip portion, clips and framing element may be raised to permit removal of the individual calendar sheets.
2. An indicator according to claim 1, in which the member is in the form of a transparent and flexible sheet extending entirely over the calendar sheets.
3. An indicator according to claim 1, in which the member is in the form of a cardboard member with a central opening of a size to permit visual observation of the entire topmost calendar sheet.
4. An indicator according to claim 1, in which the backing element contains a number of visual characters on that part of the backing element which is not occupied by the calendar sheets, and
in which the member is in the form of a transparent and flexible sheet of a size greater than the calendar sheets to also extend over the part of the backing element which contains the characters.
5. An indicator for a plurality of superposed calendar sheets and the like comprising a backing element on which the calendar sheets are mounted, a member secured to the backing element framing said sheets and allowing visibility of the topmost sheet, an elongated strip portion for the member held overlying the calendar sheets and having a clip on each end thereof to slidably mount the strip portion on the member, and a framing element slidably mounted on the strip portion to slide thereon, and to frame a respective numeral on the topmost calendar sheet, said member being mounted along a portion thereof on the backing element so that the member with the elongated strip portion, clips and framing element may be raised to permit removal of the individual calendar sheets.
