Abstract:
This invention relates generally to a file note device (10) for use with a file (12) or stack of sheets (14) bound together by way of one or more binding members (16.1 ) disposed through substantially aligned apertures in the sheets (14), the file note device (10) comprising a planar body including a note zone (18.1); and an engagement zone (18.2) located adjacent an edge portion of the planar body. The engagement zone (18.2) comprises at least one pair of spaced apart teeth (20) defining a binding member recess (22) therebetween, wherein at least one tooth (20) defines a retaining formation (20.1) for removably retaining the binding member (16.1) in the binding member recess (20), in use. It will be noted that the invention also relates to a bound file (12) comprising one or more file note devices (10) in accordance with the invention and a method of providing a note on a file (12) or stack of bound sheets (14).
Abstract:
The invention relates to microphone accessories, methods of using microphones, and a microphone. The accessory has at least one body having at least one display face for displaying at least one communication; an attachment formation for operatively attaching all or part of the accessory to the microphone; and a displacement arrangement controllable to displace all or part of the accessory automatically in a pre- determined or pre-selected manner relative to the microphone such that, in use, the at least one display face is correspondingly automatically displaced rotatably relative to the microphone. The invention also extends to an associates method of using a microphone by providing an accessory on a microphone flag and displacing the same relative to the microphone. Moreover, the invention extends to a microphone operable to displace a microphone accessory relative to a longitudinal axis of a handle thereof.
Abstract:
This invention relates to microphone accessories for use with a hand-held microphone, and to a method of using a microphone. The microphone accessory in accordance with the invention has a body comprising an attachment formation for attaching the microphone accessory to the handle of the microphone, a holding portion to be engaged by a hand of the user, a cover portion coupled to the holding portion and substantially spaced therefrom so as to define a holding zone between the holding portion and the cover portion for receipt of the hand of the user to engage the holding portion, m use, wherein the cover portion substantially shields or covers the holding zone and/or the hand of the user; and a static non-electronically variable display device and/or mi electronically variable display device. The invention also relates to a wearable microphone accessory.
Abstract:
This Invention relates to a microphone accessory for use with a microphone, particularly a microphone flag for a handheld microphone composing a head and a handle extending from the head. The accessory comprises a housing comprising at least one display panel or zone; an attachment formation for attaching the microphone accessory to the microphone, in use; and a display arrangement suitably locatable in the housing. The display arrangement comprises a display member comprising a communication; and a electromechanical displacement asembly operatively connectable to the diplay member to cause displacement of the display member relative to the display panel or zone such, that the communication is displaceably locatable adjacent the display panel or zone, so as to be visible, in use. The invention also extends to a cartridge attachable to a suitably adapted, microphone flag, the cartrige comprising at least the display member.
Abstract:
A microphone apparatus, which includes a microphone (100) comprising at least one display means provided about a head thereof, wherein the display means comprises at least one of a static display for displaying a static communication and an electronically variable display means for displaying electronically variable communication/s. The microphone further comprising a microphone windshield (401, 500) defining a fitment aperture for receiving at least the head of the microphone (100) and at least one display aperture (701 ) which is positioned such that, in use, at least a portion of the display means (702) is alignable with the display aperture (701).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a backdrop apparatus for use during recording or filming of an interview by way of an image capturing arrangement, the backdrop apparatus comprising an at least partly planar surface onto which is disposed an predetermined arrangement of communication zones which display communication data, wherein the arrangement of communication zones comprises at least one dynamic communication zone being operable to display a variable communication, and at least one static communication zone being operable to display a static communication. The invention further relates to a method of recording or filming an interview with the backdrop apparatus disposed behind the interviewer and/or interviewee.
