Abstract

An element ( 13 ) for making a flip-over presentation unit ( 1 ), shaped by a bundle of strips of material ( 2 ) provided with an adhesive strip ( 5 ) onto which sheets ( 15 ) can be adhered, which strips of material ( 2 ) are provided with holes ( 4 ) through which at least one binding spiral ( 3 ) is passed, wherein the element ( 13 ) is provided with a rigid support ( 14 ) in which the binding spiral ( 3 ) is fixed, wherein the width of the support ( 14 ) corresponds mainly to the width of the sheets ( 15 ), wherein the binding spiral ( 3 ) is fixed to the support ( 14 ) by detachable parts ( 19 ) provided with toothings ( 26 ) extending between the coils of the binding spiral ( 3 ), wherein the support ( 14 ) is provided with alignment members ( 12 ) to align the sheets ( 15 ) with respect to the strips of material ( 25 ).

Claims (30)

1. An element ( 13 ) for making a flip-over presentation means ( 1 ) formed by a bundle of strips of material ( 2 ), provided with an adhesive strip ( 5 ) onto which sheets ( 15 ) can be adhered for making a bundle, and provided along one edge with holes ( 4 ) through which at least one binding spiral ( 3 ) is passed, the element ( 13 ) comprising:

a rigid support ( 14 ) configured such that the binding spiral ( 3 ) is fixable thereto, the width of the support ( 14 ) corresponding to the width of the sheets ( 15 ) to be placed therein,

the support ( 14 ) including detachable parts ( 19 ) configured such that the binding spiral ( 3 ) of the presentation means ( 1 ) may be fixed thereto, said detachable parts ( 19 ) being provided with toothings ( 26 ) located such to extend between coils of the binding spiral ( 3 ), and

the support ( 14 ) also including alignment means ( 12 ) configured to align the sheets ( 15 ) of the presentation means ( 1 ) with respect to the strips of material of the presentation means ( 1 ).

2. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the alignment means ( 12 ) align the sheets ( 15 ) with respect to both a length and a width of the sheets ( 15 ).

3. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the alignment means are provided ( 12 ) at both lengthwise and widthwise positions on the support ( 14 ).

4. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the alignment means ( 12 ) comprise raised portions located at edges of the support ( 14 ).

5. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the alignment means ( 12 ) comprise raised portions at edges ( 17 ) of the support ( 14 ) at least at the corners ( 18 ) of the support ( 14 ).

6. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the alignment means ( 12 ) is located at an edge of the support ( 14 ) along which the spiral ( 3 ) is fixed.

7. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the detachable parts ( 19 ) include corners ( 18 ) configured to align the bundle of strips of material.

8. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the detachable part includes a protrusion ( 21 ), a first side ( 23 ) of the protrusion ( 21 ) forming a part of an upper edge ( 20 ) of the rigid support ( 14 ), and an opposite second side ( 25 ) of the protrusion ( 21 ) provided with toothings ( 26 ) located in a recess ( 22 ) running along a direction of the upper edge ( 20 ).

9. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 8 , wherein there is a distance between the teeth of the protrusion ( 21 ) and a bottom ( 24 ) of the recess ( 22 ).

10. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein a center of an upper edge ( 20 ) of the rigid support ( 14 ) forms a gap with a width that corresponds to a distance between two binding spirals ( 3 ) for forming a hanging element ( 7 ) of the presentation means ( 1 ) for hanging the presentation means ( 1 ).

11. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 10 , wherein the hanging means ( 7 ) comprises a metal wire ( 8 ) bent to form two straight legs ( 9 ) connected by a curved part ( 10 ), the straight legs ( 9 ) of the hanging element ( 7 ) extending longitudinally in the two aforementioned spirals ( 3 ).

12. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 10 , wherein the support ( 14 ) includes recesses in which the hanging element ( 7 ) can be stored.

13. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the upper edge ( 20 ) of the support ( 14 ) is provided with fixed toothings ( 29 ).

14. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the support ( 14 ) is shaped as a frame configured to be any of hung on a wall or placed on a table.

15. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the support ( 14 ) further includes support elements.

16. The element ( 13 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the support ( 14 ) is made as a disposable element.

17. An element ( 13 ) for making a flip-over presentation means ( 1 ) formed by a bundle of strips of material ( 2 ), provided with an adhesive strip ( 5 ) onto which sheets ( 15 ) can be adhered for making a bundle, and provided along one edge with holes ( 4 ) through which at least one binding spiral ( 3 ) is passed, the element ( 13 ) comprising:

a rigid support ( 14 ) configured such that the binding spiral ( 3 ) is fixable thereto, the width of the support ( 14 ) corresponding to the width of the sheets ( 15 ) to be placed therein,

the support ( 14 ) including detachable parts ( 19 ) configured such that the binding spiral ( 3 ) of the presentation means ( 1 ) may be fixed thereto, said detachable parts ( 19 ) being provided with toothings ( 26 ) located such to extend between coils of the binding spiral ( 3 ), and

the support ( 14 ) also including alignment means ( 12 ) configured to align the sheets ( 15 ) of the presentation means ( 1 ) with respect to the strips of material of the presentation means ( 1 ),

wherein the alignment means ( 12 ) comprise raised portions at edges ( 17 ) of the support ( 14 ) at least at the corners ( 18 ) of the support ( 14 ).

18. An element ( 13 ) for making a flip-over presentation means ( 1 ) formed by a bundle of strips of material ( 2 ), provided with an adhesive strip ( 5 ) onto which sheets ( 15 ) can be adhered for making a bundle, and provided along one edge with holes ( 4 ) through which at least one binding spiral ( 3 ) is passed, the element ( 13 ) comprising:
