Abstract

Abstract A planning device comprising a base foil and a transparent foil hingeably connected to each other along one edge. Both the surface of the transparent foil and the surface of the base foil adjacent to the transparent foil are smooth for repeated, releasable pressure-adherence to each other. Any object having a smooth surface can be repeatedly and releasably pressure-adhered to the smooth surface of the transparent foil. The device preferably comprises a cover foil hingeably connected to the transparent foil along one edge. The surface of the cover foil adjacent to the transparent foil is preferably also smooth so that the cover foil may be repeatedly and releasably pressure-adhered to the transparent foil.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 155 words
A planning device comprising a base foil having a self-adhering smooth surface, a paper sheet having a graphic representation thereon of a building plan or the like, said paper sheet being smaller in size than said base foil and removably disposed in overlying relationship with said base foil with the marginal edges of said paper sheet defining a marginal strip on said base foil, a transparent foil having two opposed self-adhering smooth surfaces, connection means for hingedly connecting said transparent foil to said base foil along one edge whereby said transparent foil is hingedly movable into overlying relationship with said base foil with releasable adherence between said base foil marginal strip and corresponding portions of one of said surfaces of said transparent foil and with said paper sheet sandwiched therebetween and at least one planning element having a smooth surface which may be repeatedly and releasably adhered to the other surface of said transparent foil.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 155 words
A planning device comprising a base foil having a self-adhering smooth surface, a paper sheet having a graphic representation thereon of a building plan or the like, said paper sheet being smaller in size than said base foil and removably disposed in overlying relationship with said base foil with the marginal edges of said paper sheet defining a marginal strip on said base foil, a transparent foil having two opposed self-adhering smooth surfaces, connection means for hingedly connecting said transparent foil to said base foil along one edge whereby said transparent foil is hingedly movable into overlying relationship with said base foil with releasable adherence between said base foil marginal strip and corresponding portions of one of said surfaces of said transparent foil and with said paper sheet sandwiched therebetween and at least one planning element having a smooth surface which may be repeatedly and releasably adhered to the other surface of said transparent foil.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
A planning device according to claim 1 wherein the base foil is stiff and the transparent foil is flexible.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 13 words
A planning device according to claim 1 wherein the base foil is transparent.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
A planning device according to claim 1 wherein the first connection means is formed by a connecting strip.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 33 words
A planning device according to claim 1, including a cover foil and second connection means for hingedly connecting said cover foil to said base foil and said transparent foil along said one edge.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 13 words
A planning device according to claim 5 wherein the cover foil is stiff.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 13 words
A planning device according to claim 5 wherein the cover foil is transparent.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 18 words
A planning device according to claim 5 wherein the second connecting means is formed by a connecting strip.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 37 words
A planning device according to claim 5 wherein the cover foil has a smooth surface for repeated releasable pressure-adherence between one of the smooth surfaces of said transparent foil and the smooth surface of said cover foil.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 17 words
A planning device according to claim 5 wherein the cover foil is connected to the base foil.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 17 words
A planning device according to claim 5 wherein the cover foil is connected to the transparent foil.
