Description

Bildschirmfilter filters
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Bildschirmfilter zur Abdeckung von Fernseh- und/oder Computerbildschirmen bestehend aus einer Folie.The invention relates to a screen filter for covering television and / or computer screens consisting of a film.
Bildschirmabdeckung und Bildschirmfilter bzw. Bildschirmabdeckungen für Fernsehbildschirme oder Computerbildschirme sind bereits bekannt. Während Bildschirmabdeckungen im wesentlichen ein Verschmutzen der Bildschirme während des Nichtgebrauchs verhindern soll, dienen sie zum anderen der Dekoration der sonst schmucklosen Bildschirmoberfläche während des ausgeschalteten Zustande.Screen covers and screen filters or screen covers for television screens or computer screens are already known. While screen covers are essentially intended to prevent the screens from becoming dirty when not in use, they also serve to decorate the otherwise unadorned screen surface when it is switched off.
So ist beispielsweise aus der DE 298 19264 U1 eine PC-Bildschirmabdeckung bekannt, die aus rechteckiger Hartpappe mit Kunststoffbeschichtung bzw. Papierbe- schichtung besteht. Diese Abdeckung wird mit seitlich angebrachten Kunststoffscharnieren an einen elastischen, verstellbaren, haftfähigen Kunststoffgürtel befestigt. Zur Fixierung am Bildschirmrand wird der Gürtel noch mit Powerstripes versehen. Neben derartigen Bildschirmabdeckungen sind auch Bildschirmfilter bekannt, die durchsichtig sind und teilweise mit Erdungskabeln versehen sind, wie beispielsweise in der DE 9311018 U beschrieben, oder die nur eine Funktion zum Schutz des Fernseh- bzw. PC-Bildschirms gegenüber Verschmutzung oder Beschädigung haben.For example, a PC screen cover is known from DE 298 19264 U1, which consists of rectangular hard cardboard with a plastic coating or paper coating. This cover is attached to an elastic, adjustable, adhesive plastic belt with plastic hinges on the side. To fix it to the edge of the screen, the belt is also provided with power stripes. In addition to screen covers of this type, screen filters are also known which are transparent and are partially provided with grounding cables, as described, for example, in DE 9311018 U, or which only have a function for protecting the television or PC screen from dirt or damage.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, einen Bildschirmfilter für Fernseh- und/oder Computerbildschirme zu schaffen, der neue Funktionalitäten aufweist.The object of the present invention is to provide a screen filter for television and / or computer screens, which has new functionalities.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch einen Bildschirmfilter zur Abdeckung von Fernseh- und/oder Computerbildschirmen gelöst, bei dem die Folie ein vorgegebenes Lochmuster aufweist, so dass der Bildschirm lediglich zur Generierung von im Lochmuster erscheinenden Lichteffekten nutzbar ist. Die Erfindung macht sich zunutze, dass der Bildschirm des Fernsehgeräts als Lichtquelle einsetzbar ist. Durch das Überdecken des Bildschirms unter Freilassung eines vorgegebenen Lochmusters werden beim laufenden Fernseher bzw. beim angeschalteten Computer Lichteffekte durch die auf dem Bildschirm sichtbaren schnell wechselnden Bilder erzeugt, die vom Betrachter nicht mehr als vollständiges Bild, sondern lediglich als abstrakter Lichteffekt im Lochmuster wahrgenommen werden. Hierdurch wird ein neues visuelles Medium geschaffen. Besonders vorteilhaft lässt sich der neue Bildschirmfilter zu Wiederverkaufs- und Werbemittelzwecken einsetzen. Er kann aber auch im Zusammenhang mit dem laufenden Fernsehgerät als neues visuelles Medium im Privathaushalt nutzbar sein.According to the invention, this object is achieved by a screen filter for covering television and / or computer screens, in which the film has a predetermined hole pattern, so that the screen can only be used to generate light effects appearing in the hole pattern. The invention makes use of the fact that the television screen can be used as a light source. By covering the screen while leaving a predetermined hole pattern free, light effects are generated by the rapidly changing images visible on the screen when the television or computer is switched on, which are no longer perceived by the viewer as a complete picture, but only as an abstract light effect in the hole pattern. This creates a new visual medium. The new screen filter can be used particularly advantageously for resale and advertising purposes. However, it can also be used as a new visual medium in private households in connection with the running television set.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den sich an den Hauptanspruch anschließenden Unteransprüchen.Advantageous refinements of the invention result from the subclaims following the main claim.
Demnach kann der Bildschirmfilter als Lochmuster Buchstaben- und/oder Zahlenkombinationen oder Bildkonturen bzw. bildliche Darstellungen zeigen. Hier lassen sich beispielsweise Firmennamen erzeugen oder Firmenlogos. Dies ist besonders beim Einsatz des Bildschirmfilters als Werbemittel beispielsweise bei einem Fern- sehgerätehändler von Vorteil. Dadurch kann der Bildschirmfilter mit dem Fernsehgerät bzw. Computerbildschirm als Leuchtreklame verwendet werden.Accordingly, the screen filter can show letter and / or number combinations or image contours or pictorial representations as a hole pattern. Here, for example, company names can be created or company logos. This is particularly important when using the screen filter as an advertising medium, for example for a remote vision equipment dealer an advantage. As a result, the screen filter can be used with the television or computer screen as a neon sign.
Vorteilhaft kann als Folie eine Druckfolie eingesetzt sein. Die Lochmuster können in verschiedener Art und Weise erzeugt werden. Zum Einen lassen sich die Lochmuster durch Perforation einer opaken Folie erzeugen. Andererseits kann das Lochmuster aber auch durch Bedrucken einer transparenten Folie erzeugt werden, wobei hier zum Bedrucken Siebdruck, UV-Offset Druck, UV Flex Druck, UV Letterpress infrage kommen. Dabei lassen sich die erzeugten Lochmuster mit entsprechend farbig gestalteten Oberflächen der Bildschirmfilter in beliebiger Weise kombinieren.A printing film can advantageously be used as the film. The hole patterns can be created in different ways. On the one hand, the perforated pattern can be created by perforating an opaque film. On the other hand, the hole pattern can also be produced by printing on a transparent film, screen printing, UV offset printing, UV flex printing, UV letterpress being possible here. The perforated patterns generated can be combined in any way with appropriately colored surfaces of the screen filters.
Besonders vorteilhaft besteht die Folie aus einer elektrostatischen Vinylfolie. Diese Folie hat den Vorteil, dass sie, nachdem sie ungefähr in Grosse des Bildschirms konfektioniert ist, einfach auf den Bildschirm aufgelegt werden kann und dort aufgrund der elektrostatischen Kräfte ortsfest verbleibt.The film particularly advantageously consists of an electrostatic vinyl film. This film has the advantage that, after it has been made up approximately to the size of the screen, it can simply be placed on the screen and remains there due to the electrostatic forces.
Weitere Einzelheiten und Vorteile der Erfindung werden anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Die einzige Figur zeigt eine systematische perspektivische Ansicht einer Ausführungsvariante des erfindungsgemäßen Bildschirmfilters.Further details and advantages of the invention are explained in more detail with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawing. The single figure shows a systematic perspective view of an embodiment variant of the screen filter according to the invention.
In der Figur ist ein handelsübliches Fernsehgerät 10 gezeigt, dessen Bildschirm 12 mittels eines Bildschirmfilters 14 abgedeckt ist. Es handelt sich bei dem hier dargestellten Bildschirmfilter 14 um eine flexible Folie, nämlich um eine elektrostatische Vinylfolie. Derartige Vinylfolien werden beispielsweise als Penstick in einer Dicke von 150 - 300 μm von der Firma Molco in Deutschland hergestellt. Diese Vinylfolien können farbig oder durchsichtig sein. Entsprechend durchsichtige Vinylfolien können mittels eines handelsüblichen Druckverfahrens, beispielsweise eines Siebdruckverfahrens und der Freilassung eines Lochmusters 16 bedruckt werden, wobei das Lochmuster bestimmte Konturen aufweisen kann, wie beispielsweise Sterne oder Halbmonde oder einfach aus Punkterastern bestehen kann. Diese Raste- rung kann beispielsweise, wie hier nicht dargestellt Buchstaben- oder Zahlenkombinationen beinhalten, aber auch beliebige Bildkonturen und bildliche Darstellungen. Im Zusammenwirken mit dem laufenden Fernsehgerät also den Lichteffekten, die auf dem Bildschirm 12 erzeugt werden, ergeben sich durch die Lochmuster unterschiedliche Lichteffekte, die natürlich in Helligkeit und Farbe variieren.In the figure, a commercially available television set 10 is shown, the screen 12 of which is covered by a screen filter 14. The screen filter 14 shown here is a flexible film, namely an electrostatic vinyl film. Such vinyl films are manufactured, for example, as penstick in a thickness of 150-300 μm by Molco in Germany. These vinyl films can be colored or transparent. Correspondingly transparent vinyl films can be printed by means of a commercially available printing process, for example a screen printing process and the release of a perforated pattern 16, wherein the perforated pattern can have certain contours, such as stars or crescents, or can simply consist of dot patterns. This detent For example, as not shown here, letter or number combinations can also include any image contours and visual representations. In cooperation with the running television set, ie the light effects that are generated on the screen 12, the hole patterns result in different light effects, which of course vary in brightness and color.
Insbesondere mit entsprechend farblich gestalteten Oberflächen der abgedeckten Bereiche des Bildschirmfilters ergeben sich hier reizvolle Effekte.In particular, with appropriately colored surfaces of the covered areas of the screen filter, there are attractive effects.
Die Bildschirmfilterfolie 14 kann auf die entsprechende Grosse des Bildschirms 12 zugeschnitten werden. Nachdem der Bildschirm mit einem feuchten Tuch oder entsprechend einer Empfehlung des Herstellers gereinigt worden ist, kann die Folie, die selbsthaftend ist, von einem Deckblatt abgezogen werden und auf den Fernseher aufgelegt werden, wo sie anhaftet. Die Folie kann bei Bedarf wieder abgezogen werden und bis zur Wiederverwendung zusammengerollt aufbewahrt werden. Nach mehrmaligem Gebrauch kann die Haftung der Folie dadurch wieder erhöht werden, dass sie mit einem feuchten Tuch abgewischt wird.The screen filter film 14 can be cut to the appropriate size of the screen 12. After the screen has been cleaned with a damp cloth or as recommended by the manufacturer, the self-adhesive film can be removed from a cover sheet and placed on the TV where it sticks. If necessary, the film can be removed and rolled up until re-use. After repeated use, the film's adhesion can be increased by wiping it with a damp cloth.
Auch wenn im hier vorliegenden Beispiel ein Bildschirmfilter 14 anhand einer selbsthaftenden Folie erläutert ist, kann jegliche Abdeckungsfolie aus beliebigem Material im Rahmen der Erfindung Verwendung finden, soweit die erfindungsgemäßen Lochmuster 16 vorgesehen sind. Die entsprechende Folie kann durch einen in der Figur nicht näher dargestellten Rahmen gehalten werden oder durch einen Klebe- oder Klettverschluss oder in beliebig sonstiger Art und Weise, wie sie aus dem Stand der Technik zu Bildschirmfiltern bzw. Bildschirmabdeckungen bereits weithin bekannt ist. . Even if a screen filter 14 is explained in the present example using a self-adhesive film, any cover film made of any material can be used within the scope of the invention, provided the perforated patterns 16 according to the invention are provided. The corresponding film can be held by a frame (not shown in more detail in the figure) or by an adhesive or Velcro fastener or in any other manner as is already widely known from the prior art for screen filters or screen covers. ,
