FR2755279A1 - Label holder for securing tax and licence discs, etc., to vehicle windscreen - Google Patents

Abstract

The holder has compartments to hold the labels that are normally stuck to the windscreen. The holder has a plate (4), which is divided into four compartments defined by edges (5). Each compartment is protected by a plastics film (6) and has a hole (7) at its centre. The plate can have a rail (8) on its side, which slides along a slide bar. The slide bar can be held onto the vehicle windscreen with double-sided self-adhesive tape. The slide bar can be hollow over its length except for about a centimetre length at each end.

Description

VIGNETTE HOLDERS
* DESCRIPTION *
The present invention relates to a device in which will be presented in an aesthetic and practical manner the various vignettes which must appear on a vehicle in circulation vignette 96, insurance, technical control and miscellaneous (motorway, etc.).

These stickers are usually stuck on the windshield of the vehicle, which causes several inconveniences:
- sudden changes in temperature are detrimental to good adhesion
- the stickers are difficult to recover in the event of the windshield breaking;
- it is sometimes difficult to take off these stickers.

The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. It includes:
- a rigid plastic plate divided into four compartments, protected by a film
transparent plastic, and comprising a rail on one of its sides.

 - a slide attached to the windshield.

The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention:
Figure 1 shows the front of the slide glued to the windshield;
Figure 2 shows from above this same slide;
Figure 3 shows the main room in profile;
Figure 4 shows the main room from the front.

Referring to Figure 1, the device comprises a hollow slide (1) (3) which will be fixed to the windshield by means of a double-sided tape (2).

The slide can be attached both horizontally and vertically to the windshield, as required or desired.

Referring to Figure 2, this slide has a recess (3) over its entire length except at the lower end, which allows the sliding of the rail (8) of the plate (4) to be stopped.

Similarly, a slight recess (3 ') will allow the passage of the legs (8') of the rail (8) while preventing the latter from coming out of its slide.

Referring to Figure 3, we see that the plate (4) seen in profile is divided into four compartments, delimited by flanges (5).

Each compartment of the plate (4) is covered with a transparent plastic film (6), fixed at the top and bottom as well as on the side opposite to the rail (8).

The film will be lightly tinted so as to avoid the alteration of the ink of the labels by frequent and prolonged exposure to the sun or to light.

With reference to FIG. 4, it can be seen that the plate (4) seen from the front comprises four compartments delimited by flanges (5), and that each compartment has in its middle a hole (7), which will make it possible to very easily remove the documents by sliding them, without having to spread the plastic film.

One of the sides of the plate (4) has a rail (8) which will slide in the slide (1) fixed to the windshield. The plate will be automatically presented facing the windshield.

This system will allow the device to be removed and replaced without difficulty, and users will be able to easily put or replace the stickers.

The finished device will have the dimensions of 7 x 25 cm. The plate and slide are of course of identical height.

The different documents slip easily into the compartment intended for them, recognizable by its dimensions.

The upper compartment will have the measurements of sticker 96 (7 x 7 cm).

The two compartments located below will each have the measures of 7 x 5 cm, 5 cm corresponding to the dimension of the side of the insurance sticker and the technical inspection sticker.

The last compartment will have an intermediate measurement (7 x 6 cm), allowing for example to display a highway sticker.

Claims (6)

* CLAIMS * 1) Device making it possible to present in one and the same compartmentalized device the various stickers compulsory for driving a vehicle, and usually stuck on the windshield. 2) Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the plate (4) is divided into four  compartments delimited by edges (5). Each compartment is protected by a film  plastic (6), and has a hole (7) in the middle. 3) Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the plate (4) has on its side  a rail (8) intended to slide in a slide (1). 4) Device according to claim 3, characterized in that a slide (1) is fixed to the visor  vehicle breeze by means of a double-sided tape (2). 5) Device according to claim 4, characterized in that the slide (1) is hollow over all  its length except the last centimeter, and has a slight notch (3 ') allowing  to pass the tabs of the rail (8) without leaving the device the possibility of going out  of its slide. 6) Device according to claim 5, characterized in that the rail (8) of the plate (4) will be  sliding in the slide (1). The plate (4) will thus automatically face the windshield.
