Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a rotary display of the kind having a set of rotatable members whereby a plurality of display surfaces are successively presented; and to a vane for use in such a display.
- Rotary displays of this kind are usually realised in the form of a set of parallel display members - vanes -of regular polygonal (commonly triangular) cross-section each rotatable about its longitudinal axis. The vanes are aligned and synchronously driven in 120° steps to repeatedly display three successive display surfaces (with the usual triangular cross-section vane). Displays of this type are illustrated in patent specification GB 2 134 301 and EP-A 0 249 396.
- Rotary vane displays are used to provide display surfaces for receiving poster-type display material. The vanes have plane external surfaces. The poster or similar sheet is divided into strips fixed by adhesive to respective vanes. Care is necessary in affixing the strips to ensure alignment of the display. Removal of the strips for a new display is time consuming and usually involves use of a solvent for the adhesive.
- There will be described hereinafter a rotary display incorporating a vane structure by which an appropriately treated poster is securable to the vanes in a way that permits adjustment of individual strips for alignment and ready removal of the strips when the display is to be changed. More particularly the vanes are provided with magnetised surfaces and the poster back is coated with a magnetic (i.e. magnetisable) material that is attracted to the vane surface.
- There will be described hereinafter a rotary display of the kind having a set of rotatable members for providing a plurality of succesively presented display surfaces. Each rotatable member has at least one portion providing a display surface area on which is received a portion of display material. In accordance with the teachings of this invention one of these portions is magnetised and the other has a magnetic content whereby there is a magnetic attraction between the portions to maintain the display portion attached to the display member portion.
- According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a rotary display of the kind having a set of rotatable members for providing a plurality of successively presented display surfaces, each rotatable member having at least one portion providing a display surface area that is magnetised and on which is received a portion of display material having a magnetic content magnetically attracted and thereby attached to said magnetised portion.
- According to another aspect of the present invention there is provided a vane for a rotary display, the vane being of a generally regular polygonal cross-section, each side of the vane comprising a portion of magnetised material providing a display surface area for receiving a portion of display material having a magnetic content.
- In order that the invention and its practice may be better understood an embodiment will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- Fig. 1 shows a cross-section of a vane embodying the invention having a poster strip affixed to one side; and
- Figs. 2 and 3 show details of modifications of the structure of the vane of Fig. 1.
- Fig. 1 shows a
vane 10 of triangular cross-section which is preferably adapted for mounting in a rotary display unit in the manner illustrated and described in above-mentioned specification EP-A 0 249 396, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. The vane is a hollow aluminium extrusion of essentially equilateral triangular cross-section providing the usual threedisplay surface areas vane 10 is rotatable in 120° steps about axis B extending normal to the plane of the figure when mounted in a complete unit and is shown in one of its three display positions in which it is intended to form part of a vertical display surface for the complete unit as seen in the direction of arrow A. - For illustrative purposes,
surface 12 of the vane is shown as having amagnetic strip 20 in place with aposter strip 30 attached;surface 14 has a likemagnetic strip 20 in place without an attached poster strip. Thesurface 16 is shown incomplete without the magnetic strip in place. - Each side of the vane is formed with a channel or
recess 18 extending the length of the vane. In the illustrated construction thechannels 18 are formed by addinglugs 22 at the corners of the basic triangular shape. Theselugs 22 define the longitudinal sides or edges of thechannels 18. The design is such that the width of each channel, i.e. in the direction W fordisplay surface 12, occupies as much as possible of the vane area as seen from the viewing direction A. - The strip of magnetic material is of rectangular section and its thickness is just slightly less than the depth of the recess as best shown for
surface 14. Typically the recess has a depth of about 1mm and the outer surface of thestrip 20 is inset about half the depth. This leaves a shallow outer channel or recess as seen at 24 atsurface 14 which aids in locating the display material strips. - In Fig. 1 the
sidewalls 19 of thechannels 18 are perpendicular to the base to receive therectangular section strips 20. The strips are secured in the channels by adhesive. - The
magnetised strips 20 are conveniently cut from a magnetic tape such as that sold under the name "Magnet Sheet" by Anchor Magnets Ltd. of Sheffield, England. The sheet is available in any width required with self adhesive on the non-magnetic surface to adhere the sheet to the base of the vane channels. - To make practical use of the magnetised strips, the poster display material is given a magnetisable content capable of being attracted to the strips so as to adhere to it. A convenient way of doing this is to apply a ferrous ink to the rear surface of the
poster 30, for example by screen printing. A suitable ink is ferrous ink available from Sericol Ltd or Coats Inks Ltd in the United Kingdom. This can be done with ordinary poster display materials. The ink dries to form aferromagnetic coating 32 which is sufficiently attracted to the underlyingmagnetised strip material 20 to secure theposter strip 30 to the magnetic strip. This is illustrated atsurface 12 in Fig. 1 - It will be noted that the poster strip is cut to the same width in direction W as the channel in which it seats and is located by the shallow
outer channel 24 mentioned above. Small adjustments of the poster strip may readily be made lengthwise of the vane surface (laterally of the overall display) for alignment and the poster strips are readily removable for changing the display. - As is well known, there are small gaps between the strips of poster mounted on a rotary display. The provision of lugs at the vane ends may tend to increase these gaps. Fig. 1 shows the
adjacent corner 11 of the vane below. The vanes have to be mounted at sufficient spacing to allow rotation without the vanes coming into contact. By outwardly tapering the recess edges as shown at 40 in Fig. 2 and correspondingly bevelling thestrips 22 to match, the proportion of total area used for display may be enhanced. By inwardly tapering to form an undercut 42 and correspondingly bevelling the strips as seen in Fig. 3, the strips may be retained mechanically without use of adhesive though with the loss of.some display area. In the ultimate, modification of Fig. 2 could be carried to the extent of omittinglugs 22 altogether. Themagnetic strips 22 would be adhesively secured to the plane surfaces of an ordinary triangular extrusion but without any guide channel to assist in locating the strips during assembly. - It will be understood that while a single vane embodying the invention has been described in detail, in a complete rotary vane display unit such as that disclosed in EP-A 0 249 396, each vane will be constructed in the same manner as that described above. The poster, or other display material, for mounting on one of the overall display surfaces of the unit is given a magnetic coating, e.g. the ferrous ink referred to above, over its rear surface, it is cut into strips and the strips attached to display surface portions of the individual vanes relying on magnetic attraction as described above.
