Description

The invention relates to a device for reproducing electronic media, in particular advertising in taxis.

From the DE 20 2006 001 723 U1 For example, an information carrier for the reproduction of electronic media in taxis is known, which consists of a reproduction device and a playback device and which is attached to or in the head and neck supports of the front seat.

The reproducing apparatus is a screen or monitor, preferably a thin film transistor. The update of the data of the electronic medium is carried out by an external device and the information carrier is coupled with a satellite-based system for global positioning. The data is updated in a preferred embodiment by wireless local area network (WLAN).

Furthermore, consoles are known, which are attached to the holders of the headrests and in or on which a screen ( DE 199 43 696 A1 . DE 20 2007 016 953 U1 ) or a tablet PC ( DE 20 2011 100 673 U1 ) is attachable.

The disadvantage of such consoles and other fixtures is that the screens are easily removable. Standard commercially available screens or tablet PCs are used which only insufficiently meet the security requirements in public transport facilities such as taxis.

The object of the invention is to propose a device for the reproduction of electronic media as a complete solution that is securely connected to the headrest holders and meets the required safety standards in terms of injury in case of accidents.

This object is achieved with the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.

The proposed device can be mounted by means of the holding plate, which is made of aluminum, stable to the spars.

By the use of plastic, preferably in the form of polycarbonate for the housing, rounded corners and the spacing of the housing from the support plate to supporting and / or attachment points, a high impact protection is ensured.

In order to be coupled to the vehicle electronics and to obtain from there the necessary operating current, provides an advantageous embodiment that the electronics has a voltage converter.

The device thus represents a complete solution that only needs to be connected to the vehicle electronics.

The printed circuit boards of the electronics are preferably mounted on the side of the holding plate opposite the contact surface.

In a further advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the electronics of the device for the reproduction of electronic media has a timer, which is to be operated from outside the housing via a control knob. The device can be switched off for a certain period of time and activates itself after the time has elapsed.

The cable connection to the electronics of the vehicle is connected in a preferred embodiment, that the device is turned on with the activation of the ignition.

In addition to the image reproduction, a further embodiment provides that the electronics also has a sound reproduction.

The update is made by a change of the SD card (Secure Digital Memory Card) or a direct memory input via a hidden by a flap interface using a USB stick and / or the electronics of the device has appropriate means to make the update over a radio connection through a server-based content management system feasible, so that the complete management of the screen display via the Internet takes place.

In the shared case 2 . 3 is the screen 4 behind a transparent plastic plate.

The device 1 is at the spars 5 the headrest is attached and is via a cable connection 6 through the housing 2 . 3 connected to the vehicle electronics. The rear wall of the housing 3 has a side by a cap 12 closable opening, via which a connection to the memory of the electronics can be produced.

From outside the case 2 is via a control knob 11 a timer can be operated.

2 shows a vertical section through the device 1 for playing electronic media. In the device 1 is a holding plate 7 arranged, which is angled twice on the mounting side, so that a contact surface of the retaining plate 7 to the spars 5 is available. Each with a headband 8th whose thighs 9 can be screwed to the contact surface, the respective spars 5 on the contact surface of the retaining plate 7 fixed.

The split formed housing 2 . 3 includes the retaining plate 7 and is the carrier of the screen 4 which is coupled to the electronics. In the area of the headband 8th has the back of the case 3 Through openings 17 for the spars 5 and recesses 16 for access to the fasteners of the headband 8th on (cf. 3 ).

The housing front part 2 and the back wall of the case 3 are spaced apart from supporting and / or attachment points of the holding plate 7 arranged.

Part of the electronics are at least means for playback, storage and update of the electronic media, with their circuit boards 10 on the retaining plate 7 are arranged on the side opposite the contact surface,
Furthermore, the electronics has a timing circuit that is accessible from outside the housing front part 2 via the control knob 11 is operable. Via the control knob 11 can the transmission of electronic media, here advertising, off. After 5-10 minutes, the device will turn off 1 again independently.

3 shows the case 2 . 3 in the plan view once directly and once in section through the connection area with the bars 5 , The double angled retaining plate 7 forms a contact surface for the spars 5 the headrest. Two retaining clips 8th that the spars 5 Partially include, with their outward-facing thighs 9 including the respective spar 5 with the retaining plate 7 connectable. This is done by screwing, with the screw through the recesses 16 in the case back wall 3 are accessible.
