Personalized display

摘要

In one embodiment, a kit for making a personalized display includes a blank foldable to form a cavity according to score lines to form a display with a cavity, a print medium to receive a user selected-image and to adhere to the blank, and a bending wave generation unit attachable to a display element to receive a signal from a signal generator and produce bending waves within the display element that cause the display element to vibrate and generate audible acoustic waves in accordance with the signal. In another embodiment, a personalized display includes a blank with extensions folded to form a cavity, a print medium adhered to the blank and with a user-selected image printed via a digital printer, and a bending wave generation unit attached to a display element and positioned within the cavity.

主权项

1. A kit for making a personalized display comprising:
a blank foldable according to score lines to form a display with a cavity, the blank including
a center portion, and at least three extensions connected to the center portion, each extension to be folded at least three times according to the score lines to form the cavity;an adhesion surface to receive a personalized print medium, anda back surface opposite the adhesion surface; the print medium including a personalization surface to receive a user selected-image, and including a rear surface opposite the personalization surface to adhere to the blank's adhesion surface; a support element attachable or attached to the folded blank, to be positioned at least partially within the cavity; a bending wave generation unit attachable to the support element to receive a signal from a signal generator and produce bending waves within the support element that cause the support element to vibrate and generate audible acoustic waves in accordance with the signal; and a first spacer element and a second spacer element securable to the back surface to position the support element to not touch the center portion and thereby minimize interference with the bending wave or the acoustic wave, wherein the first spacer element is a first tab scored in a first extension among the at least three extensions, and the second spacer element is a second tab scored in a second extension among the at least three extensions, and the first and second tabs e to be secured to the back surface after folding of the at least three extensions.
