Description

technical field

The present invention relates to a memory panel with a transparent or partially transparent cover according to the preamble of claim 1. In particular, the present invention relates to a memory panel with a transparent or partially transparent cover with labeled lock keys, which are additionally used for visually impaired and blind people in embossed Braille writing, recurring Stores information by pressing a button and can reproduce it visually and tactilely. The field of application is very flexible, since the information of the caps lock keys can be adjusted during production.

State of the art

Stickers are already known from the prior art, which the user can write on with a pen or print on and stick to containers, packaging, etc. to indicate the date. The disadvantages of the previously known solutions for labels to be labeled are that they can only be used once. Stickers must be removed again. For the visually impaired, these are often only recognizable with additional visual aids and information is only possible on appropriately large-format stickers for a legible font size. Furthermore, date fields that are integrated, stamped, printed or similarly attached or attached to closure lids and containers are known, which display the day and month visually, for example, by rotating disks or display windows. The disadvantages of the options integrated with the described date windows in closure lids and containers continue to be that they are only equipped with day and month displays, have very small lettering that cannot be felt by the visually impaired and cannot be used flexibly because they are fixed in closure lids or containers are integrated.

From the U.S. 5,161,975A a storage panel is known which consists of a plate-like molded body on which manually operable lock keys are arranged, which can be moved at least from an inactive position to an active position in which they remain until they are deactivated, with different ones on the surface of the lock keys Elevations and / or depressions are provided, which can be felt manually by the user.

US 2012/0123784 A1 also shows a keyboard with symbols that can be felt in different ways.

From the CA2 410 104 A1 a memory board is also known in which several lock keys are arranged to form a square, rectangular or polygonal block, with several blocks being provided on a shaped body, which are separated from one another by means of manually tactile measures or devices which can be recognized as such by the user, with the Device is formed from at least one elevation and / or depression between the blocks.

Presentation of the invention

It is an object of the present invention to provide a storage panel with a transparent or semi-transparent cover which provides support for the viewer.

According to the invention, the above object is achieved according to the preamble of claim 1 in conjunction with the characterizing features. Advantageous refinements and developments of the storage panel according to the invention are specified in the dependent subclaims.

According to the invention, the memory panel has a transparent or partially transparent cover, which can preferably be plugged onto the memory panel, characterized in that the memory panel offers further support after the key has been entered in the form that the cover comprises at least one convex converging lens, by means of which on the surface captions provided beyond the viewer between the cover and the focal plane of the converging lens appear larger.

The present storage panel consists of a plate-like molded body on which manually operable locking keys are arranged, which can be moved at least from an inactive position to an active position in which they remain in place until they are deactivated.

The memory board is characterized in that different elevations and/or depressions are provided on the surface of the lock keys, which can be felt manually by the user.

Using the memory board, information that has already been prepared can be programmed and called up on individual caps lock keys that are labeled and simultaneously embossed in Braille. By dividing the locking keys in blocks, which can be seen and can also be felt, and which preferably protrude only a few millimeters from the surface of the shaped body, incorrect entries and thus incorrect information are prevented even for the visually impaired excluded people. After the desired lock keys have been pressed, they remain clearly visible and tactile in the recess of the memory board, so that e.g.

After the information has been entered, the memory panel is advantageously self-adhesively attached to any container in a clearly visible manner. After use, the self-adhesive storage panel is then preferably removed from the container without leaving any residue. For example, adhesives or magnets or similar reversibly adhering materials can be used for adhesion.

A storage panel designed for food, preferably made of flexible, food grade silicone material, is given as an example. There are calendar days from 1 to 31, calendar months from 1 to 12, and a variable number of calendar years which are only limited depending on the size of the memory board. Food such as sausage, cheese, poultry or other items are stamped on another four lock keys. Two caps lock keys are labeled with the letters "E" for purchase date and "A" for expiry date. The "E" field is primarily marked for foods that do not have an expiry date, such as fresh, unpackaged foods. Of course, either the "E" key or the "A" key can be used, and not both at the same time. Another 3 lock keys offer the advantage that the favorites of the supermarkets that are usually visited, labeled "A / B / C", can be used in order to obtain information on where the food was bought.

character list

Further goals, features, advantages and possible uses of the storage panel according to the invention result from the following description of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawings, which show a storage panel in the form of the last example described.

implementation of the invention

How out 1 As can be seen, several rows R of locking keys 11 arranged next to one another are preferably provided on the plate-like molded body 10, with the locking keys 11 being guided in corresponding form-fitting key openings or receptacles 100 in the plate-like molded body 10, with the locking keys 11 being designed in such a way that they can be pressed from the top 101 of the plate-like molded body 10 can be pressed into the button openings or receptacles 100 and can be pushed up from the underside 102 of the plate-like molded body 10 on its underside 112 to inactivate it.

Furthermore, several lock keys 11 are preferably arranged to form a square, rectangular or polygonal block B', B'', B''', several blocks B', B'', B''' being provided on the shaped body 10, which are separated from one another by means of manually tactile measures or devices that can be recognized as such by the user.

The measure can be achieved by providing a distance 12, the distance 12 between the blocks B', B'', B''' being greater than the distance between the caps lock keys 11 of an individual block B', B'', B '''.

The device can also be formed from at least one elevation and/or depression between the blocks B', B", B'''.

The lock keys 11 can be pressed back into the neutral position individually with a finger, or all together with a device 2 to deactivate the storage panel 1. For this purpose, such a device 2 is formed from a molded part 20 on which corresponding elevations 21 or the like are formed or arranged with the manually operable locking keys 11, by means of which several locking keys 11 of one or more blocks B', B", B''' can be pushed up from its underside 112 and can therefore be deactivated. So that the lock keys 11 are preferably all flush on the upper side of the storage panel at the same time, the device 2 is positioned on the back of the storage panel. With the elevations 21 (e.g. pens) all caps lock keys 11 can now be pressed out simultaneously with light pressure.

The storage panel and device 2 can then be cleaned under running water or in the dishwasher and are thus ready for their next use.

A further variant of the storage panel 1 takes place via small magnetic windows which are pushed onto the position of the date fields and the other functional fields already described. With this variant, the Braille writing is punched onto the fields of the iron foil or the magnetic foil and written on at the same time.
