Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a display device.
  • the technical aim of the present invention is to meet the needs described above by providing a display device which indeed provides a simple and relatively economical structure having the ability to sequentially display a plurality of advertisements or messages to the public.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a display device which allows the individual substitution of one or more of the plurality of advertisement or messages without necessarily implying the disassembly of the totality of the same.
  • a display device which is characterized in that it comprises a frame supporting a plurality of rollers, arranged substantially parallel to each other and being adapted for tensioning and entraining a plurality of flexible panels adapted for bearing subject matter to be displayed, said panels being joined to each other in a closed-loop formation and attached to traction elements, adapted for movement along guides located at substantially opposite faces of said frame, said device further comprising elements for adjusting the tension of said closed-loop formation of panels.
  • the display device according to the invention comprises a plurality of panels 2 and a frame 3, adapted for rotatably supporting a plurality of rollers 4 which in the illustrated example have substantially vertical axes, said frame 3 advantageously defining a substantially parallelepipedal form and has at least one open face wherethrough said panels 2 may be viewed.
  • Said rollers 4 are adapted for the tensioning and entraining said plurality of flexible panels 2, which are expediently joined together in a closed-loop formation, which is movable relatively to the frame and attached to traction means 5 which are arranged movable in related guides 6, which in the exemplified embodiment are horizontal and are placed at the base and at the top of the frame 3.
  • Adjustment means 7 are also provided for adjusting the tension of said closed-­loop formation or belt of panels 2, as well as means 8 for illuminating the same, which will be described hereinafter.
  • Said traction means 5 are prefereably composed of two substantially parallel chains 9, each chain being advantageously arranged in a corresponding closed-loop formation and adapted to be driven by drive means such as a motor 10.
  • anti-friction means 11 interposed between each chain 9 and the inner surfaces of the guides 6 are anti-friction means 11, which may comprise, for instance, inserts or liners, advantageously made of self-lubricating material.
  • the chains are also provided with a plurality of connection elements which, in the illustrated example comprise a plurality of plates 12, which are advantageously substantially equidistantly spaced from each other and adapted for engagement relationship with resilient elements 13, interposed respectively between the lower chain and the base edge 2a of each panel and between the upper chain and the top edge 2b of each panel 2.
  • the means 7 for adjusting the tension of the closed-loop formation of panels 2 advantageously comprise at least one adjustment roller 4a, which, in a similar manner to the rollers 4, is also freely rotatably mounted on the frame 3.
  • the ends of the roller 4a are supported by respective heads, which are provided with dowels 14, which dowels are slideable and selectively lockable at a desired position along holes 15, essentially extending parallel to each other and, in the case of employing substantially vertical rollers, as in the illustrated example, the holes 15 may be provided in the base and in the top of the frame 3, and define a substantially horizontal extension.
  • the panels 2 may be joined to each other by any suitable link means, e.g. a bound seam 16, as schematically illustrated in Fig. 2, clips, edge binders or the like link elements, to form a closed-loop formation or belt, which belt is simultaneously wound around the plurality of rollers 4, and he tensioning roller 4a, which, although in the illustrated embodiment are mounted vertically, may be alternatively mounted horizontally, when it is desired to provide vertically movable panels.
  • the rollers are freely rotatable, and supported by the frame 3.
  • each panel 2 in the plurality of panels are engaged, by elastic elements 13, interposed between the edges 2a, 2b and the plates 12, which are rigidly coupled to the chains 9.
  • the arrangement of the plurality of elements 13 ensures that the panels 2 are always properly automatically maintained in a taut condition in the direction of the axes of the rollers 4, whilst the arrangement of rollers 4 including the adjustment roller 4a, permits this result to be perfected in a horizontal direction by intervening on the adjustment elements 7, i.e. by sliding the dowels 14 along the respective slots 15 and locking them at a desired position, to preset the required tension of the belt or closed-loop formation of panels 2, in the direction of the longitudinal extension of the chains.
  • the chains entrain, in the case illustrated, the panels 2 in a horizontal direction, which can therefore alternate to the viewing of the public through one of the larger vertical faces of the frame 3.
  • any suitable external panels may be applied to the frame 3 as desired, to protect the mechanism from the elements, and to define any number of desired openings wherethrough the panels 2 may be observed. Such openings may define any desired conformation according to the optical effects one wishes to achieve.
  • one or more of such external covering elements or panels of transparent material, or the panels 2 themselves may be made of weather resistant material, advantageously a translucent material.
  • illuminating means 8 may also be provided, which can be arranged either behind the same panels 2, making them visible by making use of the partial transparency of the material which composes them, or by illuminating the visible part thereof in a direct manner.
  • the new panel 2 is then positioned by reversing the procedure required to effect removal of the replaced panel.
  • the duration of the exposure of each panel can be extended for a preset time by an electronic programmer or by a time-controlled electromechanical device.
