Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing stamps by printing an intended carrier material
  • stamps and comparable stamps have always been offered and sold by the publishers as finished products that can be used by the customer, but that cannot be influenced in their graphic design and artistic / presentation-related content
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to remedy the disadvantages described and to propose a method and a device which allow the user or customer to have a say in the design of stamps, in particular in the case of stamps
  • the method and the devices should be designed in such a way that they can operate and use the issuers of stamps as commercially usable means in line with the market According to the invention, this object is achieved in that a text selected from individual suggestions and / or an individually designed text and / or an image or. Images are created by input means and are given for printing on the carrier material.
  • the present invention is not an allegedly illegal interference in the design of the stamp available by the publisher, but rather an opportunity for the customer to be officially offered on the market by the customer in the production of a stamp or a series of identical or different stamps.
  • a series is conventionally manufactured, i.e. a smaller number of printed stamps of a certain franking value ready for use outside the point of sale.
  • Value stamps are primarily postage stamps or similarly designed stickers with an official or similar effect (voucher, admission ticket etc. from private companies such as freight forwarders, retailers, sports companies etc.).
  • Swiss Post products can find an attractive advertising platform here e) A slogan created at lightning speed, coupled with a voluntary or automatically billed surcharge on the brand, allows targeted financial support f)
  • the method according to the invention and the corresponding device can be easily connected to the Internet and are thus open to worldwide use. Ie it becomes possible Design your own stamps on your home PC and make them authorized by the external post office.
  • Owners of devices according to the invention, as a rule post offices or post offices, can make them available to their customers for their own design of tokens for a fee or free of charge.
  • the manufacturing method according to the invention and the device are described in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment. Show:
  • FIG. 1 is a front view of a device according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a side view of the device shown in FIG. 1,
  • FIG. 3 shows a surface of a touchscreen with exemplarily illustrated, selectable texts and the image of a personality
  • Fig. 4 is a surface of a touch screen with selectable text suggestions and images and
  • FIG. 5 shows an embodiment of the device as a stamp dispenser for self-service.
  • the automatic stamp machine can be used and is equipped for producing individually designed stamps.
  • the device consists of a housing 9 in the form of a cylinder cut obliquely at the top and forming an operating surface.
  • the foot of the housing 9 has a step 7 for children.
  • the step 7 can be moved into the cylinder interior.
  • Material and manufacturing technology for the body 9 here as a body are freely selectable by a person skilled in the art.
  • a touch screen 1 (contact screen) or an equivalent control device is installed in the sloping control surface. Above this protrudes the lens of a digital camera 2, the viewing direction and possibly viewing angle can preferably be adjusted.
  • a computer 3 in the form of a PC, which with the Touchscreen 1, the camera 2, a printer 4 and a coin changer, respectively.
  • a cashier station 10 is connected.
  • the printer 4 receives from a paper roll 5 fresh, pre-printed or empty paper and / or paper provided with an adhesive layer on the back.
  • the coin changer 10 is fed via a coin or bank note 8, which in turn issues return money via a stamp and / or residual money delivery point.
  • the manufacturing method according to the invention can be implemented as follows:
  • the body authorized to issue stamps prepares a basic design of the stamp. This contains the entire area available for the stamp as well as the legal information such as value, identification and security elements etc. at least one free, i.e. Field released for printing individual information.
  • the size of this field is not relevant. It can also include one or more edges of the stamp, so that, for example, a subject or slogan that has already been printed on but is no longer desired can simply be cut away (cf. with the touchscreen of FIGS. 3 and 4), the remaining part, i.e. the actual "official" stamp can still be used as official means of payment.
  • the customer throws or shoves a certain amount into the coin or bank note slot before using the facility. This amount is shown on the touchscreen under the "Credit"display; or the customer uses a credit card, too the facility is prepared to use.
  • the customer selects or determines the franking value of the stamp to be created, the number of stamps to be printed and one or more of the offered slogans via a menu displayed on the touchscreen. If he does not like any of these slogans, in a special embodiment he can call up a keyboard on the screen and use it to enter his own text. It is also conceivable that he enters his own text / image into the PC via the Internet or hardware data carrier (floppy disk or the like). The latter displays this text / image on the touch screen.
  • the PC displays the selected text / image on the available space within the basic stamp design shown on the touch screen. If the customer agrees with the result of his / her own creation / composition according to the screen display, he presses on the zone of the touchscreen with the inscription "Print" and the printer prints out the desired number of created postage stamps. Otherwise, software editing functions are offered to him.
  • the customer can also take a photo of himself, another person or an object on site. He sets the viewing direction of the camera optics provided in the device under control via the camera image displayed in the touchscreen as desired and then shoots the image by actuating the camera symbol intended for this on the screen surface. If you don't like the shot, you can press the camera trigger one or more times on the screen.
  • the stamp image is created on the basis of controlled specification data of the agency authorized to issue the brand with the active assistance of the brand buyer.
  • he inserts textual and graphic elements interactively on a touchscreen into the emerging, on-going stamp image that is always appearing online.
  • the provider of the facility freely uses the software that influences the customer's access and influences the internal process of the hardware, which services he wants to offer the customer at what price. It is only important that it also provides the basic design of the stamp.
  • the overall programming required for these steps is pure standard work with today's software instruments. For example, images can be processed via the Twain standard and texts via Word or other software on the PC.
  • the software required for dialog with the touchscreen is also known.
  • the embodiment shown in the figures is only an example and can be changed as desired within the scope of expert knowledge.
  • these include, among other things, the choice of the operator language such as the language of the stored slogans, the retouching of the photo with regard to sharpness, color and contrast, the input of other texts and solgans, the selection of other fonts, the division of the field of the stamp released for free design into Subfields of any shape, the placement of lines or other aids on the stamps, which facilitate the subsequent separation of the individual areas from the official part. Aids are also conceivable, such as changing the size of the photos (by zooming) or overlaying or overlaying the photos / texts.
  • text or another subject can also be entered via the camera. For example, this can be very relevant. It is also conceivable that the basic subject of the brand, given by post, varies depending on the franking value.
  • the device in which one or more of the elements (eg camera, coin changer) are dispensed with.
  • the housing and printer can be the only necessary elements.
  • the PC can be replaced by freely programmable or even permanently programmed control electronics, the touchscreen by discrete input elements, such as switches.
  • the device 20 can be set up for self-service or in shipping systems or. Franking machines can be integrated.

Abstract

Le procédé selon l'invention permet de fabriquer in situ des timbres présentant des motifs, tels que textes et/ou images, photos ou slogans choisis par les clients eux-mêmes. A cet effet, par exemple, un système postal prévoit pour le client, un dispositif (20) approprié pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention, ainsi que des moyens postaux de marques de valeurs ou timbres, tels qu'affranchissement et toutes sortes de marquages de sécurité. Le client introduit ensuite son motif de manière interactive au moyen d'un écran tactile (1) dans les zones affranchies des timbres. Le cas échéant, grâce à une caméra numérique encastrée (2), le client peut tirer sa propre photo ou celle d'une autre personne, d'animaux ou d'objets, et introduire celle-ci dans l'image de la marque d'affranchissement. Une imprimante (4) permet d'imprimer le timbre ainsi établi, puis de le distribuer.
