Special effects rotating rubber stamp
First Claim
1. A rotatable image transfer device capable of generating an imprinted reproduction of at least one image to a target object comprising:
- an image mount,a housing having a formed interior region,means to rotatably attach said image mount to said housing,means affixed to said rotatably attached image mount for transferring said imprinted reproduction of said at least one image to said target object responsive to contact with said target object; and
means, disposed substantially within said formed interior of said housing, responsive to said contact between said transferring means and said target object, for generating at least one non-imprinted message in response to said transfer of said at least one image to said target object, said at least one non-imprinted message specifically associated with said at least one image,means in said generating means and in said formed interior for storing said at least one non-imprinted message.

Abstract
A rotatable rubber stamp device is disclosed which produces a special effect when the stamp is pressed against and/or rolled across a medium to be imprinted therewith. The special effects generated by the stamp can include audible (speech, sound and/or music), visual (light patterns and/or sequences, and displays). A cavity in the plastic handle of the housing of the stamp device contains the electronic circuitry necessary to provide the special effects messages. A sensor, such as a spring-metal, lever-action switch, is affixed within a support bracket for a translatable axle of the rotatable stamp device mount, so as to trigger the electronic circuitry to issue the special effects message in response to the imprinting of a visual image from the rubber stamp upon the desired medium.
