Definitions

  • This • invention relates to sign displays and more particularl although not exclusively to animated exhibits for advertisin or other information disseminating purposes.
  • invention discloses sign comprising at least one belt for carrying display material and at least one roller means whic is adapted for movement across the face of said sign wherein the belt is disposed to wind over the roller means as it moves across said face so that said display material is progressively exhibited for view or concealed in accordance with the direction of travel of said rollers.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of one form of sign according to this invention
  • Figure 2 shows an example of the type of animation which may be obtained from the aforementioned sign
  • Figure 3 shows a modification of the sign of figure 1
  • Figure 4 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a second embodiment of the invention
  • Figure 5 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a third embodiment of the invention.
  • the sign may comprise a frame 1 with an open display area or face 2 on one side.
  • the display face is sealed against the ingress of dust or moisture by a sheet of transparent plastic or glass 3 which sits between flanges 4 at each end.
  • a pair of belts 5 and 6 are extended across the display area.
  • the belts have a sufficient width in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the drawing to allow the exhibition of graphic material.
  • Each of the belts are secured to a respective frame section of th sign at one end 7 and 8, and at the other end they wind arou rollers 9 and 10.
  • These rollers are spring loaded to maintai the belts in a substantially taut and crease free configura ⁇ tion so that the display is presented to best advantage.
  • the rollers are mounted on a carriage 11 which in turn is adapte to travel back and forth along a rail 12 from one side of th display face to the other.
  • the carriage may for example be propelled by a small onboard motor or by a system of pulleys and cables from a stationary motor
  • the belt material may at least in part be translucent and a light tube 13 is mounted along the back face of the sign frame.
  • FIG 3 A modification of this particular embodiment is shown in figure 3.
  • the basic mechanism here is smilar to the device of figure 1 except that additional rollers 15 and 16 are provided at each side of the display area to increase the length of the belts and thus the amount of material that c be displayed thereon.
  • additional rollers 15 and 16 are provided at each side of the display area to increase the length of the belts and thus the amount of material that c be displayed thereon.
  • Figure 4 shows a second embodiment of the invention in whic the sign is adapted to use only one continuous belt 18 to display on two opposite faces 19 and 20. Both ends 21 and 2 of the belt are affixed to the top endi of the sign frame an the section therebetween extends around two horizontal rollers 22 and 23, and a central drive roller 24.
  • the sign is intended to operated in the vertical orientation shown s that the weight of rollers 22 and 23 serves to tension the display area of the belt without the assistance of springs.
  • Any suitable type of reversible motor drive 23A and 23B may be used to rotate roller 24 so that lengths of belt 18 with suitable graphic thereon are displayed alternatively on eac of the sign faces 19 and 20.
  • FIG. 5 A modification of the sign of figure 4 is shown in figure 5
  • two separate belts 27 and 28 are used so that the background display can be omitted.
  • the belts are arrange in a similar manner to that of figure 4 with the ends 29 and 30 being secured to the top and bottom respectively of the sign frame and the mid-sections extending around pairs of horizontal rollers 31, 32, 33, 34 and central rollers 35 and 36.
  • the upper roller 35 is rotated by a reversible motor drive 37 and 38, and it thereby displaces belt 27 in an identical manner to the device of figure 3.
  • Each pair of adjacent horizontal rollers 31-32 and 33 - 34 are mechanicall linked so that the displacement of the upper belt 27 causes a corresponding movement in lower belt 28.
  • Roller 36 is also preferably mounted in a slotted aperture 37 so that it's weight serves to tension the belts and prevent creasing of the display. The effect of this arrangement is that an animated exhibit is produced on each side of the sign which is similar to that of figure 2.
