Claims12
An audio playback device comprising:
- an audio module, the audio module including a circuit having:
- a medium for storing audio,
- a speaker for playing audio stored on the medium,
- a power source for powering the audio, and
- a switch for activating playing of the audio stored on the medium;
- a substrate for carrying the audio module thereon;
- substrate adhesive disposed on at least a portion of the substrate for securing the module to a consumer item;
- a module backing removable for exposing the substrate adhesive, whereby a consumer may remove the module backing and apply the substrate adhesive to the consumer item.
In combination with a consumer item having first and second item portions that are movable relative to each other, an audio playback device comprising:
- a tab securable with the first item portion, the tab including a tab portion having adhesive thereon and a removable tab backing for exposing the adhesive, whereby a consumer may remove the tab backing and apply the tab portion adhesive to the first item portion;
- an audio module, the audio module including a circuit having:
- a medium for storing audio,
- a speaker for playing audio stored on the medium,
- a power source for powering the audio, and
- a switch for activating playing of the audio stored on the medium, the switch being cooperatively connected to the tab;
- a substrate for carrying the audio module thereon;
- substrate adhesive disposed on at least a portion of the substrate for securing the module to the second item portion;
- and
- a module backing removable for exposing the substrate adhesive, whereby a consumer may remove the module backing and apply the substrate adhesive to the second item portion such that relative movement of the first and second item portions causes relative movement between the tab and the switch, such tab movement in a first direction activating the switch for playing of the audio stored on the medium and such tab movement in a second direction de-activating the switch for turning of playing of the audio stored on the medium.
