Wenn nach einer besonderen Ausführungsart der Erfindung die Lichtquelle eine Elektrolumineszenzlampe ist, erreicht man einen energiesparenden Betrieb und vermeidet unnötige Wärmeerzeugung durch die Lichtquelle.When according to a particular embodiment of the invention Light source is an electroluminescent lamp, one achieves an energy-saving Operation and avoid unnecessary heat generation by the light source.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsart besteht die Energiequelle aus mindestens einem photoelektrischen Element und mindestens einem Akkumulator. Eine solche Notiztafel kann bei Nichtgebrauch an einen hellen Platz gelegt werden und speichert so die Energie für den nächsten Gebrauch.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the energy source exists of at least one photoelectric element and at least an accumulator. Such a notice board can when not in use to a bright place, thus storing the energy for the next use.

Wenn der zum Ein- und Ausschalten der Lichtquelle vorgesehene Schalter als Reedschalter ausgebildet ist, kann dieser von aussen durch einen Dauermagneten betätigt werden. Dies erleichtert die Schaffung einer hermetisch abgedichteten Ausführungsart der erfindungsgemässen Notiztafel. Besonders bevorzugt trägt der Schreibstift einen Dauermagneten, mit welchem der Reedschalter betätigbar ist.When provided for turning on and off the light source Switch is designed as a reed switch, this can from the outside by a Permanent magnets are actuated. This facilitates the creation of a hermetic sealed embodiment of the inventive note board. Especially Preferably, the pen carries a permanent magnet with which the Reed switch is actuated.

Wenn an der Notiztafel ein Halter für den Schreibstift so angeordnet ist, dass durch den Dauermagneten des im Halter aufgenommenen Schreibstiftes der Reedschalter betätigt wird, kann die Lichtquelle so geschaltet werden, dass sie automatisch einschaltet, sobald der Schreibstift aus dem Halter entnommen wird.If a holder for the pen so arranged on the note board is that captured by the permanent magnet of the holder When the reed switch is actuated, the light source can be switched in this way Be sure that it turns on automatically as soon as the pen is out of the holder is removed.

FIG. 2
a plan view of the note board of Figure 1 and
FIG. 3
a block diagram of the electrical components of the note board according to Figures 1 and 2.

Die in den Figuren 1 und 2 mit 1 bezeichnete Notiztafel ist für den Einsatz bei Tauchgängen gedacht und daher vollständig wasserdicht ausgebildet. Die Teile der elektrischen Ausrüstung sind insbesondere im Blockschaltbild gemäss Figur 3 zu erkennen.The designated in Figures 1 and 2 with 1 note board is for the Dive use intended and therefore fully waterproof. The parts of the electrical equipment are in particular in the block diagram can be seen according to FIG.

Der Aufzeichnungsträger 2 besteht vorzugsweise aus einer Folie oder einer Tafel aus transparentem Kunststoff, deren obere Fläche als Schreibfläche 3 dient und zu diesem Zweck leicht aufgerauht sein kann. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass eine leicht aufgerauhte Kunststoffoberfläche, auch unter Wasser, durch einen gewöhnlichen Bleistift beschreibbar ist, wobei die Zeichen durch einen Radiergummi einfach wieder zu entfernen sind. Als Variante ist es selbstverständlich auch denkbar, auswechselbare Folien oder Blätter aus Papier als Aufzeichnungsträger zu verwenden. The recording medium 2 is preferably made of a film or a board made of transparent plastic, whose upper surface as a writing surface 3 serves and can be easily roughened for this purpose. It has demonstrated that a slightly roughened plastic surface, even underwater, is writable by an ordinary pencil, with the characters passing through an eraser are easy to remove. As a variant, it goes without saying also conceivable, interchangeable films or sheets of paper as To use record carrier.

Als Lichtquelle ist hinter dem Aufzeichnungsträger 2 eine elektrolumineszierende Folie 4, im folgenden EL-Folie genannt, angeordnet. Selbstverständlich könnte auch irgendeine andere Lichtquelle zur Hintergrundbeleuchtung der Schreibfläche verwendet werden, doch wird eine EL-Folie für den vorliegenden Zweck besonders bevorzugt. Zur Speisung der EL-Folie mit elektrischer Energie dient ein Solarpanel 5, das am Rand der Schreibfläche 2 angeordnet ist. Es wäre selbstverständlich auch möglich, ein halbtransparentes Solarpanel zu verwenden, das die gesamte Oberfläche der Schreibtafel bedeckt. Solche Solarzellen haben zwar einen geringeren Wirkungsgrad als die herkömmlichen, was jedoch durch die vergrösserte wirksame Fläche ausgeglichen würde. Eine so ausgestattete Notiztafel hätte gegenüber der in Figur 2 dargestellten den Vorteil, dass praktisch deren gesamte Oberfläche für das Anbringen von Notizen und/oder Skizzen genutzt werden könnte. Die vom Solarpanel 5 gelieferte Energie wird über einen Laderegler 6 einem Akkumulator 7 zugeführt, der die Energie speichert. Zum Ein- und Ausschalten der Lichtquelle 4 ist ein Schalter 8 vorgesehen, der vorzugsweise als Reedschalter ausgebildet ist. Schliesslich ist ein EL-Driver 9 vorgesehen, der die benötigte Spannung und Frequenz erzeugt, um die EL-Folie zum Leuchten zu bringen. In der Nähe des Solarpanels 5 ist auf dem Aufzeichnungsträger 2 ein Halter 10 für einen Schreibstift 11 befestigt. Der Schreibstift 11, der in diesem Beispiel ein Bleistift ist, trägt an seinem hinteren Ende einen Dauermagneten 12, der den Reedschalter 8 betätigt, wenn der Schreibstift 11 wie dargestellt im Halter 10 aufgenommen ist.As the light source behind the recording medium 2 is an electroluminescent Foil 4, hereinafter called EL foil, arranged. Of course could also use any other light source for backlighting The writing surface can be used, but is an EL film for the present purpose particularly preferred. To feed the EL foil with electrical Energy is a solar panel 5, which is arranged at the edge of the writing surface 2 is. It would of course also be possible to have a semi-transparent solar panel to use that covers the entire surface of the chalkboard. Although such solar cells have a lower efficiency than the conventional, which, however, compensated by the increased effective area would. Such a note board would have compared to that shown in Figure 2 the advantage that virtually their entire surface for attaching notes and / or sketches could be used. The from the solar panel 5 supplied energy is supplied via a charge controller 6 a rechargeable battery 7, that stores the energy. To turn on and off the light source 4 is a switch 8 is provided, which is preferably designed as a reed switch. Finally, an EL driver 9 is provided, the required voltage and Frequency generated to light up the EL foil. In the vicinity of the Solar panels 5 is on the recording medium 2, a holder 10 for a Pen 11 attached. The pen 11, which in this example is a pencil is, carries at its rear end a permanent magnet 12, which the Reed switch 8 is actuated when the pen 11 as shown in the holder 10th is included.

Ein Radiergummi 14 ist über eine Kordel 13 oder dergleichen, die in den Figuren 1 und 2 verkürzt dargestellt ist, mit dem Ende des Schreibstifts 11 verbunden. Die Kordel 13 ist durch eine Öffnung 15 in der Notiztafel 1 geführt, so dass sowohl der Schreibstift 11 als auch der Radiergummi unverlierbar mit der Notiztafel 1 verbunden sind. Ein Rahmen 17 umgibt sowohl den Aufzeichnungsträger 2 als auch das Solarpanel 5 und ist mit einer rückwärtigen Abdeckung 16 dicht verschweisst.An eraser 14 is over a cord 13 or the like, which in Shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, with the end of the pen 11 connected. The cord 13 is guided through an opening 15 in the note board 1, so that both the pen 11 and the eraser captive with the note board 1 are connected. A frame 17 surrounds both the record carrier 2 as well as the solar panel 5 and is with a rear cover 16 tightly welded.

Selbstverständlich kann die Notiztafel auch ohne Solarpanel 5 ausgeführt werden. Der Laderelgler 6 kann in diesem Fall trotzdem vorgesehen sein, wobei seine Eingänge beispielsweise mit Steckkontakten für eine externe Stromquelle verbunden sein können. Es ist natürlich auch denkbar, einen extemen Laderegler zu verwenden. Falls gemäss einer weiteren Ausführungsart anstelle des Akkumulators 7 eine Batterie vorgesehen wird, entfällt natürlich der Laderegler 7. In diesem Fall sollte die wasserdichte Umhüllung zum Auswechseln der Batterie geöffnet werden können. Battreiefächer mit wasserdichtem Deckel sind bekannt und werden daher hier nicht näher beschrieben.Of course, the note board can be executed without solar panel 5 become. The loader controller 6 can still be provided in this case be, with its inputs, for example, with plug contacts for external Power source can be connected. It is of course also conceivable, an extemen Charge controller to use. If according to another embodiment instead of the accumulator 7, a battery is provided, of course, eliminates the Charge Controller 7. In this case, the waterproof case should be replaced the battery can be opened. Battrait compartments with waterproof Lid are known and will therefore not be described here.
