Really, this is by accident, during my researches, that I discovered this “hidden” face of the puppetry: The Patents


This is a very fantasy world, when we are seeing the inventiveness developed in this field for many years (the older patent that I have found (1863) is over 145 years old).


Without, of course, any aim to push the people to copy, I think that it's interesting, for the puppeteers and puppet fans (young or older) to see what has been done before them, when the computer, the 21st century means, Internet, los emails were not existing, hoping that they could find their own inspiration within the works carried out by their “predecessors”, who developped mechanisms, systems which, for some of them, are still used today.



So, I put online.....

At least, this is an excellent way to see very nice technical drawings concerning puppetry (as well mechanisms, used for dolls/toys that could be, perhaps, adapted)





Despite the care I put into the design of this page; It is possible, in a few cases, that the same patent (the same drawings) can be found under several numbers, in other languages. Generally, this is because the patent was registered in more countries than the one where she was filled/processed.



I thank, in particular, the following websites:

Google.patents & the fantastic one from the “Deutsches Patent- und Markenamt“, where I am doing my researches and I had found a lot of information.


Patents

Realmente, es por casualidad, durante mis búsquedas, que descubrí esta cara oculta de la marioneta: Las Patentes


Es un mundo muy fantástico, cuando se ve la inventiva desarrollada en este campo desde muchos años (la patente la más antigua (1863) que he encontrado tiene más de 145 años)


Sin ningún deseo, claro, de empujar la gente a copiar, pienso que es interesante, para los titiriteros y aficionados (jóvenes o más viejos) de ver lo que se ha hecho antes de ellos, cuando computadora, medios del siglo 21, Internet, los emails no existieron, esperando que ellos podrán encontrar su propia inspiración en el trabajo llevado a cabo por sus “predecesores”, quienes han desarrollado mecanismos, sistemas que, para algunos de ellos, siguen todavía usados.



Pues, pongo en linea....

Al menos, es una excelente manera de ver muy lindos dibujos técnicos respecto a la marioneta (así como mecanismos, utilizados para muñecas/juguetes que podrían ser, quizás,  adaptados).



A pesar del cuidado que puse en el diseño de esta página; es posible, en casos raros, que se puede encontrar la misma patente (los mismos dibujos) bajo varios números, en otros idiomas. Generalmente, esto se debe a que la patente se registró en más países que donde ella se está tramitando.


Agradezco, muchísimo, los sitios siguientes:

Google.patents & el fantástico sitio del “Deutsches Patent- und Markenamt“, donde estoy haciendo mis búsquedas y he encontrado un montón de informaciones.
