Abstract

The aim was to develop a simple and user-friendly electronic or optoelectronic device for simultaneous display of multiple representations. The invention meets the objective due to features as described in the claims. It relates to an electronic information medium for alphanumeric and/or graphic representation.

Description

Elektronische Anzeigevorrichtung Electronic display device
Die Erfindung betrifft ein elektronisches Speichermedium zur Darstellung von alphanumerischen und/oder graphischen Zeichen.The invention relates to an electronic storage medium for representing alphanumeric and / or graphic characters.
Im Stand der Technik sind elektronische bzw. optoelektronische Anzeigevorrichtungen für die Darstellung von alphanumerischen oder von graphischen Zeichen bekannt. Üblicherweise erfolgt die Darstellung auf einem Bildschirm, der in einem Monitor angeordnet ist. Ferner sind im Stand der Technik tragbare Geräte (Notebooks) bekannt, die aufklappbar sind und bei denen eine Darstellungsfläche mit einem Rechner verbunden ist. Den im Stand der Technik bekannten Anordnungen haftet der Nachteil an, daß sie nur sehr umständlich gehandhabt werden können.Electronic or optoelectronic display devices for the display of alphanumeric or graphic characters are known in the prior art. The display usually takes place on a screen which is arranged in a monitor. Furthermore, portable devices (notebooks) are known in the prior art, which can be opened and in which a display area is connected to a computer. The arrangements known in the prior art have the disadvantage that they can only be handled with great difficulty.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein elektronisches bzw. optoelek- tronsiches Medium anzugeben, das einfach und bequem handhabbar ist und das es ermöglicht, mehrere Darstellungen gleichzeitig anzubieten. Erfindungsgemäß gelingt die Lösung der Aufgabe mit den in den gekennzeichneten Merkmalen der Ansprüche angegebenen Maßnahmen.The invention is based on the object of specifying an electronic or optoelectronic medium which can be handled simply and conveniently and which makes it possible to offer several representations simultaneously. According to the invention, the object is achieved with the measures indicated in the features of the claims.
Die Erfindung ermöglicht eine einfache und bequeme Handhabung des elektronischen bzw. optoelektronischen Mediums in Form einer dem Benutzer geläufigen und bequemen Weise in der Art eines Buches.The invention enables simple and convenient handling of the electronic or optoelectronic medium in the form of a familiar and convenient manner for the user in the manner of a book.
Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung besteht aus einem Notebook-Bildschirm, welcher aufklappbar ist und zwei buchseitengroße Darstellungsflächen besitzt, auf dem sowohl alphanumerische als auch graphische Darstellungen möglich sind. Die Daten für die Darstellungen können entweder komplett im Gerät gespeichert und seitenweise dargestellt werden oder aus einem internen oder einem externen Massenspeicher zugeführt werden. Bei externer Zuführung kann dies über eine Schnittstelle bzw. drahtlos über die jeweils verfügbaren Übertragungsmedien erfolgen. Bei interner Bereitstellung ist die Speicherung auf einer CD-ROM oder einem ähnlichen elektronischen Medium möglich.The arrangement according to the invention consists of a notebook screen which can be opened and has two book-sized display areas on which both alphanumeric and graphic displays are possible. The data for the representations can either be completely stored in the device and displayed page by page or supplied from an internal or an external mass storage device. With external feeding, this can be done via an interface or wirelessly using the transmission media available in each case. With internal provision, storage on a CD-ROM or similar electronic medium is possible.
Die Erfindung zeichnet sich durch eine vielfältige Darstellungsmöglichkeit aus, die sich an den dem Anwender geläufigen Benutzungsgewohnheiten beim Lesen oder beim Arbeiten mit einem Buch anlehnt. Die Vorrichtung besitzt die Möglichkeit des Umblättern, der Vergrößerung von Seitenteilen mit vertikaler und horizontaler Verschiebung, der Eingabe von Seitenzahlen zum gezielten Aufschlag und dergleichen.The invention is characterized by a wide range of display options, which is based on the user habits familiar to the user when reading or working with a book. The device has the possibility of turning the page, enlarging the side parts with vertical and horizontal displacement, entering page numbers for a targeted serve and the like.
Die Vorrichtung kann über eine Schnittstelle verfügen, die zum Aufladen von integrierten Akkus dient, sowie über eine weitere Schnittstelle zum Anschluß eines PCs oder eines ähnlichen Gerätes sowie zum Anschluß einer Antenne zum Empfang von Daten. Ferner ist es möglich, daß in der Vorrichtung ein CD-ROM Laufwerk oder ähnliche Speichermedien integriert sind.The device can have an interface that is used to charge integrated batteries, as well as a further interface for connecting a PC or a similar device and for connecting an antenna for receiving data. It is also possible that in the Device a CD-ROM drive or similar storage media are integrated.
Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert. In der zugehörigen Zeichnung zeigtThe invention is explained in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment. In the accompanying drawing shows
Figur 1 die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung im aufgeklappten Zustand.Figure 1 shows the arrangement according to the invention in the opened state.
Die Anordnung ist in Form eines Buches ausgeführt und verfügt über die beiden Darstellungsflächen Dl und D2. Unterhalb der Darstellungsfläche befindet sich ein Feld, in dem die Bedienelemente zur Steuerung aller erforderlichen Funktionen untergebracht sind. Die beiden Darstellungsflächen sind mit Hilfe des Gelenkes G verbunden, so daß die Gesamtanordnung in Form eines Buches entsteht. Außer der zweckmäßigen und geläufigen Handhabbarkeit ergibt sich dadurch der Vorteil, daß im geschlossenen Zustand, wenn mit der Vorrichtung nicht gearbeitet wird, ein guter Schutz der empfindlichen Bauteile sowie ein Schutz vor ungewollter Betätigung der Bedienelemente gegeben ist. The arrangement is in the form of a book and has the two display areas D1 and D2. Below the display area is a field in which the control elements for controlling all necessary functions are housed. The two display surfaces are connected by means of the joint G, so that the overall arrangement is in the form of a book. In addition to the practical and common manageability, this has the advantage that in the closed state, when the device is not being used, good protection of the sensitive components and protection against unintentional actuation of the operating elements is provided.
