Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A tear-off table calendar having one page for each day of the year arranged horizontally in the stack and glued together along one cut face of the stack defined by one edge of each page, has printing on at least one other cut face of the stack defined by one or more i a place between the pages appropriate to the day or week concerned.
  • the calendar may be of a variety of shapes,.including a straight or oblique cube, parallelepipedon or cylinder.
  • the printed matter on the individual pages may basi- I cally be so arranged that some room is left for brief notes.
  • the space available for this purpose is, however, very limited, by reason of the calendar data, unless the pages are inconveniently large.
  • the stack has to be scanned until the desired date comes into view.
  • a calendar providing these facilities is so arranged that at least one nonglued cut face of the stack has printed on the edges of I context calendarium means the days of the year arranged by weeks and/or months.
  • a calendarium defining a years calendar of the kind, forexample, which is conventional in pocket diaries, could be printed on the cut face of the stack; the months could, for example, be arranged one below the other in strip-like lines parallel to the cut edges and the days in columns at right-angles thereto. Whilst in such an arrangement the entire surface of each page would be available for notes, the arrangement of the individual pages by the respective days, weeks and months would be lacking, so that such a calendar would not be suitable for use as a diary for recording future events.
  • the successive days are arranged side by side by weeks or months in a .plurality of lines one beneath the other, in numerical orderand downwardly inclined.
  • each dayor each week there is associated with each dayor each week a succession of a plurality of tear-off pages, these being indicated by a mark printed on the cut edges of the pages, the marks of a line being juxtaposed in stepped configuration.
  • the stepped arrangement of the marks which with respect to each of a succession of pages are each disposed in the same location on the edges of the pages, enables, for example, the insertion of a chit containing a note of a forthcoming conference, between the pages relating to a particular day, the said pages being identified by the mark apertaining to the day in question; the chit may protrude from the tear-off table calendar, so that the individual turning of pages which is entailed in the case of a conventional diary is eliminated.
  • the month indications are not associated with the individual days, but arranged in at least one column one beneath the other in fields whose height is that of the line spacing, so that the legibility of the calendarium is improved.
  • tear-off table calendar merely in the form of a half-year etc. calendar, by merely arranging the days or weeks of half a year in the described manner on at least one cut face.
  • FIG. I shows a first said form of cubic shape with the calendarium on one cut face only, whose days are arranged by months and indicated by line marks;
  • FIG. 2 shows a second form of calendar, similar to FIG. 1 but with the calendarium distributed over three cut faces;
  • FIG. 3 shows a third form of cubic tear-off table calendar, in which merely the weeks are indicated by line marks;
  • FIG. 4 shows the area A in FIGS. 1 and 2 to an enlarged scale
  • FIG. 5 shows a fourth, viz. a cylindrical, form of calendar
  • FIG. 6 shows the area B of FIG. 5 to an enlarged scale.
  • FIG. 1 the pages 1 of equal format are stacked one above the other to form a parallelepipedon and joined ata cut face 2 by their cut edges by means of a layer 3 of glue (shown of exaggerated thickness).
  • a calendarium is printed on the front cut face 4. For each day a succession of, for example, five pages is provided, which is indicated by a mark 5. The length of these marks is determined by the length of the edges of the pages, which is subdivided into a maximum of 31 marks, in the present case bar-shaped line marks and additionally into a field for indicating the months.
  • the line marks for the first 15 days of the month of January commence in the upper left-hand corner of the cut face 4 and are arranged adjacent each other in a stepped configuration.
  • the field 15 for the month indication is adjacent thereto.
  • the line mark for the sixteenth of January is adjacent this field laterally displaced relative to the line mark for the fifteenth of January in such a way (FIG. 4) that the lower margin of the line mark for the fifteenth of January is at the same height as the upper margin of the line mark for the sixteenth of January.
  • the line mark for the sixteenth of January can also be disposed lower down, so that additional note pages are available between these two days.
  • the line mark for the remaining days of January are appropriately arranged adjacent the line mark for the sixteenth of January.
  • the line mark for the first of February could, in principle, be joined on that for the thirty-first of January to form a step therewith. This would however lead to an inconvenient format for the calendar. For this reason the line mark for the first of February is arranged beneath the mark for the first of January at that height at which it would continue on from that for the thirty-first of January. The line marks for the remaining days of February are arranged relatively adjacent in the appropriate manner.
  • Two parallel line marks arranged one above the other, respectively delimit the section 16 available for indicating the date and day, for the individual days.
  • the date and week indication may also contain an abbreviated month indication, in which case the field 15 for the month indication inserted in the line is dispensed with (of, FIG. 6).
  • the lines for the succeeding months of the calendarium are also arranged on the cut face 4 in the manner described, the fields for indicating the months, which are arranged one beneath the other, forming a column 17.
  • the succession of pages with the first fourteen lines of the first stepped line are turned up, so that the pages provided for the fifteenth of January can be endorsed. It is also possible to insert a card or the like between the pages, as shown for the fourth of December by a note sheet 6 protruding from the calendar. In this way the tedium of turning of pages individually is avoided and the time taken to gain access to a date for which a note has been made is reduced.
  • FIG. 2 shows a tear-off table calendar, whose year calendarium extends over three cut faces.
  • the lines are arranged in a manner corresponding to FIG. 1, i.e., the calendarium in FIG. 2 is formed from that in FIG. 1, in that the line marks are made of such a length that each succession of lines commences at the edge 10 of the cut face 7 and terminates at the edge 11 of the cut face 9, fields for the month indication (forming columns l8,
  • FIG. 3 shows a tear-off table calendar with weeks indicated by marks.
  • the marks which are in the form of bar-shaped line marks 5' are also arranged adjacent each other in stepped configuration and are disposed on the three cut faces 12, l3, 14 of a cube, which are not glued.
  • the two line marks for the first and second week are disposed on the cut face 12, the line marks for the third and fourth week on the cut face 13, and the line marks for the fifth and sixth week on the cut face 14.
  • the line marks for the seventh and eighth week are disposed on the cut face 12, the line mark for the seventh week being at the level on the cut face 12 at which it would join on to the line mark for the sixth week on the cut face 14.
  • the length of the line marks in FIG. 3 corresponds to half the length of an edge of the pages 21, whilst the height of the line marks is determined by the number and thickness of the pages provided per week.
  • the calendar may also define a prismatic stack and may, for example, be of cylindrical configuration, the calendarium being arranged on the curved surface.
  • calendar pages 31 in the form of circular discs form a cylinder 32.
  • the discs (or the cylinder) may also be flattened, they are held together by a glued binding.
  • the calendarium is printed on the remainder of the envelope surface.
  • the different months extend in the form of a band leaving out the glue strip 33- defining l2 sectors of a helix around the cylindrical surface.
  • FIG. 6 shows, again to an enlarged scale, the stepped juxtaposition of the line marks 5 (which in FIG. 5 are shown in a simplified manner as a line).
  • the week indication is arranged above, and the month indication beneath the date indication.
  • Cut faces which are not used for the calendarium or which are free preferably have publicity material printed thereon.
  • the line marks and date indications are applied in known manner, e.g., by screen printing.
  • a combination note pad and calendar comprising a stack of horizontal coextensive superposed paper sheets having a height at least equal to a major edge dimension of the sheets and formed with a vertical cut surface extending along said major dimension;
  • adhesive means extending along another vertical cut surface of the stack to connect said sheets thereto such that successively uppermost sheets can be successively torn from said stack to expose the next lower sheet and thereby diminish the height of the first mentioned surface;
