  • Patent number: 7363735
    Abstract: A calendar comprising two sheets with one laid flat against the other and the sheets being moveable one over the other. One sheet bears the numbers “1” to “31” marked on it and the other sheet bears markings such that the numbers can be brought into registration with respective ones of the markings, successive markings being indicative of successive days of the week. Each month is represented by an indication on the sheet bearing the said markings adjacent to a marking indicative of that day of the week on which the first day of that month falls. Apertures are formed in the intended upper one of the sheets and further marks are provided on the intended underneath sheet such that when the indication of a given month on one of the sheets is brought adjacent to the number one on the other sheet, a mark appears through one of the apertures which is in registration with that number on the said one of the sheets which corresponds with the last day of the given month.

  • Publication number: 20060207128
    Abstract: A calendar comprising two sheets with one laid flat against the other and the sheets being moveable one over the other. One of the sheets is an intended lower sheet and the other sheet is an intended upper sheet. One sheet bears the numbers “1” to “31” marked on it in order with uniform spacing between successive numbers. The other sheet bears markings with uniform spacing between them such that the numbers can be brought into registration with respective ones of the markings, successive markings being indicative of successive days of the week in cyclical fashion for at least a full five weeks, so that the number 1 on the sheet bearing the numbers can be brought into registration with any selected one of the markings representing any day of the week. Each month is represented by an indication on the sheet bearing the said markings adjacent to a marking indicative of that day of the week on which the first day of that month falls.

The leaf retaining means comprise a base portion, which is provided with at least one formation to enable it to be secured to a folder cover, and loop means, the latter has at least two points on its surface which two points are closest to an imaginary plane which does not pass through that position and which is perpendicular to the loop means, and which two points are spaced apart. The loop means are such as to enable a leaf of material, such as a sheet of paper, with a generally T-shaped aperture in it that is open at an edge of the leaf, to be releasably held by the loop means by pushing the aperture onto the loop means.
