(canceled) ### Claim 24 A sliding information device for placement and sliding on an even and flat supporting surface, wherein this device comprises a baseplate with a flat and even bottom surface on its underside, and an upright element fastened to its top surface by means of a base that enables elastic bending of the upright element back and forth from an unloaded rest position A to a transversely loaded oblique position B, and whereby the distance “b” between the peripheral edge of the baseplate and the peripheral edge of the fastening zone or area between the base and baseplate is not less than 2.5 cm anywhere. ### Claim 25 (depends on 24) A device according to claim 24 wherein the upright element is fastened substantially perpendicular to the top surface of the baseplate. ### Claim 26 (depends on 24) A device according to claim 24 wherein the upright element is fastened almost in the centre of the surface of the baseplate. ### Claim 27 (depends on 24) A device according to claim 24 wherein the baseplate and/or the upright element are printable on their walls. ### Claim 28 (depends on 24) A device according to claim 24 wherein there is a mutual connecting zone between the said upright element and base that enables the elastic bending. ### Claim 29 (depends on 28) A device according to claim 28 wherein this connecting zone comprises an intermediate zone realised by suitable plastic fold formation between the base and upright element. ### Claim 30 (depends on 29) A device according to claim 29 wherein the upright element is an elastically bendable plate around at least one longitudinal axis of a profile-shaped intermediate zone. ### Claim 31 (depends on 24) A device according to claim 24 wherein the base of the upright element and the baseplate are bonded together in the mutual fastening zone. ### Claim 32 (depends on 24) A device according to claim 24 wherein the base has an extension piece close to its edge opposite the connecting zone that runs parallel to the baseplate and that covers the baseplate at least in part. ### Claim 33 (depends on 24) A device according to claim 24 wherein one or more separate extra information media are affixed on the baseplate and/or the upright element. ### Claim 34 (depends on 25) A device according to claim 25 wherein the upright element is a PVC plate with the same thickness as the baseplate. ### Claim 35 (depends on 24) A device according to claim 24 wherein the upright element 5 comprises a prop element that can be folded out against the baseplate. ### Claim 36 (depends on 24) A method for manufacturing a movable information device according to claim 24 comprising the cutting of a series of segments from an elastically bendable substrate in plate form covered with printing, of which the outer periphery defines the components of the device bordering each other, such as the upright element, the base, the extension piece and the baseplate, and wherein the dividing line between the extension piece and the baseplate is not cut out over its entire length; wherein fixing means are applied to the base; and wherein the baseplate is folded over from the segment by 180° along the dividing line and bonded against the base onto the fixing means; and wherein the upright element is folded back by 90° along the folding line between the base and the upright element. ### Claim 37 (depends on 36) A method according to claim 36 wherein after cutting out the segments they are stacked flat on one another and packaged, wherein the fixing means are applied after unstacking. ### Claim 38 (depends on 36) A method according to claim 36 wherein after cutting out, the fixing means is applied to the base on each of the segments and then the accompanying baseplate is folded over by 180° and bonded to the base, after which the thus obtained, laminated, primarily flat structures are stacked for bundling in packaging means. ### Claim 39 (depends on 38) A method according to claim 38, wherein, after unpacking, the upright element is folded back from the laminated structure by 90° into an upright position on the baseplate. ### Claim 40 (depends on 36) A method according to claim 36 wherein the length of the uncut section in the dividing line is limited to at least one and preferably two point zones. ### Claim 41 (depends on 36) A method according to claim 36 wherein after folding back the upright element by 90° along the folding line, a fold-out prop element is folded out from the upright plate to lock this plate into the upright position. ### Claim 42 (depends on 36) A cut-out segment, obtained as an intermediary product for the information device manufactured according to claim 36, comprising an upright element, a base, an extension piece and a baseplate with a dividing line, not cut out over its entire length, between this extension piece and this baseplate. ### Claim 43 (depends on 38) A laminated flat structure, obtained as an intermediary product for the information device manufactured according to the method of claim 38.
