Description

L'invention concerne un panneau d'affichage ; les affiches spécialement destinées à un tel panneau ; et, enfin, les procédés de mise en place et d'enlèvement de telles affiches.The invention relates to a display panel; posters specially intended for such a sign; and, finally, the methods of placing and removing such posters.

On connaît déjà des panneaux d'affichage de type comportant un bâti support ; un carter en forme de caisson porté par le bâti support, ayant au moins une fenêtre sur au moins une de ses deux grandes faces, et renfermant des moyens support d'au moins une affiche, agencés de manière que l'une ou les affiches puissent être visibles par la ou les fenêtres qui lui sont parallèles et proches.There are already known type display panels comprising a support frame; a casing in the form of a box carried by the support frame, having at least one window on at least one of its two large faces, and containing support means for at least one poster, arranged so that one or more posters can be visible through the window (s) which are parallel and close to it.

On peut se référer par exemple au document FR-A-2 699 718 et FR-A-2 703 176.Reference may be made, for example, to document FR-A-2 699 718 and FR-A-2 703 176.

Selon ces documents, le panneau comporte également des moyens d'entraînement en translation des moyens support d'affiches de manière à assurer le défilement continu ou non des affiches. Ce défilement est horizontal.According to these documents, the panel also comprises means for translational drive of the poster support means so as to ensure the continuous scrolling or not of the posters. This scrolling is horizontal.

On peut se référer également aux documents FR-A-2 610 439, US-A-5 018 289 et US-A-5 138 781.Reference may also be made to documents FR-A-2 610 439, US-A-5 018 289 and US-A-5 138 781.

Un des problèmes majeurs qui se pose dans des panneaux d'affichage du type précédemment considéré est celui de la fixation des affiches.One of the major problems which arises in display panels of the type previously considered is that of fixing the posters.

Ce problème est d'autant plus crucial que les affiches sont destinées à défiler.This problem is all the more crucial as the posters are intended to be displayed.

Et que, par ailleurs, leur fixation doit être amovible.And that, moreover, their attachment must be removable.

Ce problème de fixation est d'autant plus important que les affiches sont de grandes dimensions, que le panneau d'affichage, donc les affiches, doivent pouvoir faire face à des conditions climatiques variables, notamment de température et d'hygrométrie et, enfin, que l'on souhaite un degré de qualité élevé pour la présentation des affiches.This problem of attachment is all the more important that the posters are of large dimensions, that the display panel, therefore the posters, must be able to face variable climatic conditions, in particular of temperature and hygrometry and, finally, that a high degree of quality is desired for the presentation of the posters.

Afin d'atteindre ces objectifs, l'invention propose un panneau d'affichage du type considéré précédemment dans lequel les moyens support d'affiche comprennent en combinaison des premiers moyens de maintien positif d'affiche le long de son bord horizontal supérieur et une paire de seconds moyens de maintien positif d'affiche, le long de ses deux bords verticaux.In order to achieve these objectives, the invention provides a display panel of the type considered above in which the poster support means comprise in combination with first positive poster holding means along its upper horizontal edge and a pair second positive poster holding means, along its two vertical edges.

Les premiers moyens de maintien positif d'affiche comprennent un organe support allongé horizontalement parallèlement aux affiches, souple et inextensible ; une série de pattes fixées transversalement audit organe, régulièrement espacées, dirigées vers le bas, disposées de façon coplanaire et formant, pour celles des pattes situées en regard de la fenêtre, un plan d'appui vertical. Au moins une partie des pattes est pourvue, frontalement, d'un plot en saillie frontalement. La bordure de l'affiche est en appui sur le plan d'appui formé par les pattes, et les plots traversent des oeillets correspondants ménagés dans ladite bordure.The first positive poster holding means comprise a support member elongated horizontally parallel to the posters, flexible and inextensible; a series of legs fixed transversely to said member, regularly spaced, directed downwards, arranged coplanar and forming, for those of the legs located opposite the window, a vertical support plane. At least part of the legs is provided, frontally, with a stud projecting frontally. The border of the poster is supported on the support plane formed by the legs, and the studs pass through corresponding eyelets formed in said border.

Certaines des pattes sont pourvues de plots et d'autres, intermédiaires, en sont dépourvues. Les plots sont écartés les uns des autres. Un plot comporte une base rétrécie formant gorge de maintien attenante à une partie renflée et, le cas échéant, une extrémité libre pointue.Some of the legs have studs and others, intermediate, do not. The studs are separated from each other. A stud has a narrowed base forming a retaining groove adjoining a bulged part and, if necessary, a pointed free end.

Les pattes sont portées par un organe support formant chaîne sans fin montée glissante dans un organe de guidage, en prise avec un pignon denté d'un rouleau de guidage, déviation, et renvoi des affiches faisant partie des moyens d'entraînement, des moyens support d'affiches et des affiches elles-mêmes. Le plan d'appui formé par les pattes est coplanaire avec l'axe de l'organe support ou chaîne sans fin d'entraînement.The legs are carried by a support member forming an endless chain slidably mounted in a guide member, in engagement with a toothed pinion of a guide roller, deflection and return of the posters forming part of the drive means, support means of posters and the posters themselves. The support plane formed by the legs is coplanar with the axis of the support member or endless drive chain.

Les seconds moyens de maintien positif d'affiche comprennent au moins un ensemble placé verticalement, parallèlement aux affiches, comportant chacun une pièce support fixée d'une part à l'organe support des premiers moyens de maintien positif d'affiche et, d'autre part à un autre organe support, s'étendant parallèlement au premier et situé au voisinage du bord inférieur des affiches ; et une série de plots fixés transversalement, frontalement et en saillie sur la pièce support, régulièrement espacés, dirigés vers la fenêtre.The second positive poster holding means comprise at least one assembly placed vertically, parallel to the posters, each comprising a support piece fixed on the one hand to the support member of the first positive poster holding means and, on the other hand leaves to another support member, extending parallel to the first and located in the vicinity of the lower edge of the posters; and a series of studs fixed transversely, frontally and projecting from the support piece, regularly spaced, directed towards the window.

La pièce support considérée comprend une partie d'appui plane et, sur son bord longitudinal externe, une aile saillante dirigée vers la fenêtre.The support piece considered comprises a flat support part and, on its external longitudinal edge, a projecting wing directed towards the window.

Comme précédemment, un plot comporte une base rétrécie formant gorge de maintien attenante à une partie renflée et, le cas échéant, une extrémité libre pointue.As before, a stud has a narrowed base forming a retaining groove adjoining a bulged part and, if necessary, a pointed free end.

La pièce support des seconds moyens de maintien positif d'affiche comporte, à sa partie extrême supérieure, une lumière destinée à être traversée par un plot correspondant appartenant aux premiers moyens de maintien positif d'affiche. La pièce support est, à cet endroit, appliquée ou sensiblement appliquée contre l'organe support correspondant.The support piece of the second positive poster holding means comprises, at its upper end part, a light intended to be traversed by a corresponding pad belonging to the first positive poster holding means. The support piece is, at this location, applied or substantially applied against the corresponding support member.

Selon un autre aspect, le panneau comporte deux tels ensembles (pièce support et plots) placés dos à dos, situés à proximité l'un de l'autre, parallèlement ou sensiblement parallèlement l'un à l'autre, reliés l'un à l'autre par un ou des organes élastiques.According to another aspect, the panel comprises two such assemblies (support piece and studs) placed back to back, located close to each other, parallel or substantially parallel to each other, connected to each other. the other by one or more elastic members.

Ces organes élastiques sont donc la réalisation considérée au moins deux rubans situés au moins vers les parties extrêmes des ensembles en question. Ces rubans sont fixés aux pièces support sur leur face frontale.These elastic members are therefore the embodiment considered at least two ribbons located at least towards the end parts of the assemblies in question. These ribbons are fixed to the support pieces on their front face.

Les deux ensembles ainsi constitués peuvent comporter, fixée à l'arrière d'un seulement des ensembles, une bande d'occultation venant à recouvrement sur l'autre ensemble, sans être toutefois fixée à lui.The two assemblies thus formed may include, fixed to the rear of only one of the assemblies, a concealment strip overlapping on the other assembly, without however being attached to it.

Les deux ensembles ainsi constitués peuvent comporter, chacun, un moyen de maintien complémentaire d'affiche.The two assemblies thus formed may each include a means of holding additional displays.

Un tel moyen complémentaire peut être formé d'une pièce de longueur sensiblement égale à celle des ensembles et comportant des lumières aptes à coopérer avec les plots des ensembles.Such complementary means can be formed of a piece of length substantially equal to that of the assemblies and comprising lights capable of cooperating with the studs of the assemblies.

Dans une forme de réalisation, les moyens de maintien complémentaires sont formés de profilés comprenant une partie d'appui plane, comportant des lumières destinées à être traversées par les plots des pièces support des seconds moyens de maintien positif d'affiche, et une aile saillante dirigée vers la fenêtre.In one embodiment, the complementary holding means are formed from profiles comprising a flat support part, comprising lights intended to be crossed by the studs of the support pieces of the second positive poster holding means, and a projecting wing directed towards the window.

Dans le panneau considéré, les moyens d'entraînement en translation comportent des rouleaux de guidage, déviation et renvoi des affiches, portés par le bâti. Les organes support des premiers et seconds moyens de maintien positif d'affiche forment chacun une boucle sans fin dont la forme est définie par des pignons ou poulies montés calés sur l'axe des rouleaux en question. Ces rouleaux comportent une réserve pour le logement de l'organe support tel que chaîne, de manière que le plan d'appui défini par les pattes soit tangent à la surface périphérique d'appui des rouleaux.In the panel considered, the translational drive means comprise guide rollers, deflection and return of the posters, carried by the frame. The support members of the first and second positive poster holding means each form an endless loop whose shape is defined by pinions or pulleys mounted wedged on the axis of the rollers in question. These rollers include a reserve for housing the support member such as a chain, so that the support plane defined by the lugs is tangent to the peripheral support surface of the rollers.

Selon un autre aspect, l'invention concerne une affiche spécialement destinée à un panneau d'affichage tel qu'il vient d'être décrit. Une telle affiche comporte sur trois de ses quatre bords des bandes rapportées pourvues d'oeillets de fixation.According to another aspect, the invention relates to a poster specially intended for a display panel as just described. Such a poster has, on three of its four edges, attached bands provided with fixing eyelets.

Selon un autre aspect, l'invention concerne un procédé de mise en place d'une affiche sur un panneau d'affichage caractérisé par le fait qu'on procède successivement aux étapes suivantes :

L'invention concerne un panneau d'affichage 1 destiné à recevoir des affiches telles que 2.The invention relates to a display panel 1 intended to receive posters such as 2.

Le panneau 1 comporte un bâti support 3 incluant un piètement 4, portant un carter 5, de forme générale parallélipèdes.The panel 1 comprises a support frame 3 including a base 4, carrying a casing 5, of generally parallelepiped shape.

Le carter 5 a une forme générale de caisson. Il comporte en premier lieu une ceinture 6 formant le chant du carter 5 et, de part et d'autre, deux grandes faces 7.The housing 5 has a general box shape. It comprises firstly a belt 6 forming the edge of the casing 5 and, on either side, two large faces 7.

L'une des (ou les deux) grandes faces 7 comporte une fenêtre 8 pourvue d'une vitre de protection.One of (or both) large faces 7 has a window 8 provided with a protective glass.

Un tel panneau d'affichage 1 est destiné à être placé avec son piètement 4 vertical et le plan principal du carter 5, dont les grandes faces 7 et les fenêtres 8 sont parallèles, vertical. Ce plan est référencé P.Such a display panel 1 is intended to be placed with its vertical base 4 and the main plane of the casing 5, the large faces 7 and the windows 8 of which are parallel, vertical. This plan is referenced P.

La ceinture 6 a, quant à elle, un axe principal passant par les grandes faces 7, disposé horizontalement, perpendiculairement au plan P.The belt 6 has, for its part, a main axis passing through the large faces 7, arranged horizontally, perpendicular to the plane P.

Pour des raisons de commodité, la description est faite en référence à un panneau d'affichage 1 érigé ainsi qu'il vient d'être décrit.For reasons of convenience, the description is made with reference to a display panel 1 erected as just described.

C'est en référence à cette situation que doivent être compris les qualificatifs tels que "horizontal" ou "vertical".It is with reference to this situation that qualifiers such as "horizontal" or "vertical" must be understood.

Par ailleurs, le panneau d'affichage 1 est considéré par rapport à un observateur placé en regard de la fenêtre 8, ou de l'une des fenêtres 8 dans le cas où le panneau 1 en comporte deux.Furthermore, the display panel 1 is considered with respect to an observer placed opposite the window 8, or one of the windows 8 in the case where the panel 1 comprises two.

Les qualificatifs d"'avant", "arrière", "frontal", etc. se réfèrent à cette situation.The qualifiers "front", "rear", "frontal", etc. refer to this situation.

Toutefois, il est entendu que lors de son stockage ou pour son montage ou encore pour son transport, le panneau d'affichage 1 ou ses éléments constituants peuvent être placés ou disposés dans une position autre que celle mentionnée précédemment.However, it is understood that during its storage or for its assembly or even for its transport, the display panel 1 or its constituent elements can be placed or arranged in a position other than that mentioned previously.

Le panneau d'affichage 1 comporte également des moyens 9 support d'affiche 2.The display panel 1 also includes means 9 for poster support 2.

Ces moyens 9 sont agencés pour que les affiches 2 soient disposées verticalement en regard de la fenêtre 8, juste à l'arrière d'elle.These means 9 are arranged so that the posters 2 are arranged vertically opposite the window 8, just behind it.

Les affiches 2 placées sur le panneau d'affichage 1 sont, dans la réalisation considérée, de contour carré ou rectangulaire, limité par une bordure horizontale supérieure 10, une bordure horizontale inférieure 11 et deux bordures latérales, verticales 12.The posters 2 placed on the display panel 1 are, in the embodiment considered, of square or rectangular outline, limited by an upper horizontal border 10, a lower horizontal border 11 and two lateral, vertical borders 12.

On entend ici par bordure la zone de l'affiche 2 adjacente à son bord libre extérieur.By border is meant here the area of poster 2 adjacent to its free outer edge.

Une affiche 2 comporte ainsi une partie principale imprimée 13, en papier, présentant donc une certaine souplesse et susceptible d'être déformée et plus spécialement roulée, enroulée ou placée. Le long de trois de ses quatre bords libres, la partie 13 est pourvue d'une bande 14, venant à recouvrement sur la partie 13 et solidarisée à elle, notamment par collage.A poster 2 thus comprises a printed main part 13, made of paper, therefore having a certain flexibility and capable of being deformed and more particularly rolled, wound or placed. Along three of its four free edges, the part 13 is provided with a strip 14, overlapping on the part 13 and secured to it, in particular by gluing.

Les trois bandes 14 sont destinées, lorsque l'affiche 2 est en place sur le panneau d'affichage 1, à former respectivement les bordures 10, 11 et 12.The three strips 14 are intended, when the poster 2 is in place on the display panel 1, to form the borders 10, 11 and 12 respectively.

Une bande 14 est réalisée selon le mode d'exécution considéré ici en une matière plastique souple mais inextensible et ayant une grande tenue.A strip 14 is produced according to the embodiment considered here in a flexible but inextensible plastic material and having a high resistance.

Les bandes 14 formant les bordures 10, 11, 12 sont pourvues d'oeillets 15 régulièrement disposés sur leur longueur.The strips 14 forming the edges 10, 11, 12 are provided with eyelets 15 regularly arranged along their length.

Les trois bandes 14 ménagées sur la partie 13 pour former les bordures 10, 11, 12 pourvues des oeillets 15 permettent le support de l'affiche 2 prise dans son ensemble (c'est-à-dire sa partie 13 imprimée utile).The three bands 14 formed on the part 13 to form the borders 10, 11, 12 provided with the eyelets 15 allow the support of the poster 2 taken as a whole (that is to say its useful printed part 13).

Dans la forme de réalisation considérée, il est prévu plusieurs affiches 2 placées les unes à côté des autres, horizontalement, mais indépendantes les unes des autres. Ces affiches 2 sont toutes supportées par les moyens support 9.In the embodiment considered, there are provided several posters 2 placed one beside the other, horizontally, but independent of each other. These posters 2 are all supported by the support means 9.

Dans ce cas, une affiche 2 se trouve en regard de la fenêtre 8 tandis que les autres affiches 2 sont masquées à la vue par rapport à cette fenêtre 8. Dans cette réalisation, le panneau 1 comporte donc également des moyens d'entraînement 16 des moyens support 9 de manière à assurer le défilement des affiches 2.In this case, a poster 2 is located opposite window 8 while the other posters 2 are hidden from view with respect to this window 8. In this embodiment, the panel 1 therefore also includes drive means 16 for support means 9 so as to ensure the scrolling of the posters 2.

Ce défilement est préférentiellement discontinu c'est-à-dire que les moyens d'entraînement 16 sont à l'arrêt pendant un certain temps où l'affiche 2 en regard de la fenêtre 8 peut être vue par les observateurs. Puis, les moyens d'entraînement 16 sont actifs pour changer d'affiche et ainsi de suite.This scrolling is preferably discontinuous, that is to say that the drive means 16 are stopped for a certain time when the poster 2 facing the window 8 can be seen by the observers. Then, the drive means 16 are active to change the poster and so on.

Toutefois, entre également dans le cadre de l'invention le cas où les affiches 2 défilent en continu, les moyens d'entraînement 16 étant agencés en conséquence.However, also falls within the scope of the invention the case where the posters 2 scroll continuously, the drive means 16 being arranged accordingly.

Dans la réalisation considérée, le défilement des affiches est horizontal.In the embodiment considered, the scrolling of the posters is horizontal.

Toutefois, entre également dans le cadre de l'invention le cas où le défilement est vertical.However, also falls within the scope of the invention the case where the scrolling is vertical.

Enfin, l'invention concerne également le cas où le panneau 1 est destiné à une affiche unique, fixe ou mobile.Finally, the invention also relates to the case where the panel 1 is intended for a single poster, fixed or mobile.

Les moyens support 9 comprennent en combinaison des premiers moyens 9a et une paire de seconds moyens 9b.The support means 9 comprise in combination first means 9a and a pair of second means 9b.

Les premiers moyens 9a assurent le maintien de l'affiche 2 le long de son bord horizontal supérieur c'est-à-dire à l'endroit de la bordure horizontale supérieure 10.The first means 9a maintain the poster 2 along its upper horizontal edge, that is to say at the location of the upper horizontal edge 10.

Les seconds moyens 9b assurent le maintien de l'affiche 2 le long de ses deux bords verticaux c'est-à-dire à l'endroit des bordures latérales verticales 12.The second means 9b maintain the poster 2 along its two vertical edges, that is to say at the location of the vertical lateral edges 12.

Les moyens support 9 ne comportent pas de moyens de maintien de l'affiche 2 le long de son bord horizontal inférieur. Pour cette raison, il n'est pas prévu que l'affiche 2 comporte une bande inférieure.The support means 9 do not include means for holding the poster 2 along its lower horizontal edge. For this reason, poster 2 is not intended to have a lower strip.

On décrit maintenant plus spécialement les moyens support 9, 9a, 9b, dans la cas où il est prévu une pluralité d'affiches 2, juxtaposées horizontalement mais indépendantes l'une de l'autre, entraînées à défilement horizontal grâce aux moyens d'entraînement 16 agencés à cet effet.The support means 9, 9a, 9b will now be described more specifically, in the case where a plurality of posters 2 are provided, juxtaposed horizontally but independent of each other, driven to scroll. horizontal thanks to the drive means 16 arranged for this purpose.

Les moyens supports 9, 9a, 9b sont agencés de manière que l'affiche 2 puisse être maintenue sans risque de décrochage intempestif, le maintien étant néanmoins amovible, lorsque cela est souhaité.The support means 9, 9a, 9b are arranged so that the poster 2 can be maintained without risk of untimely stalling, the support being nevertheless removable, when desired.

On décrit maintenant plus spécialement les premiers moyens 9a.The first means 9a will now be described more specifically.

Ces premiers moyens 9a comprennent d'abord un organe support 17, allongé horizontalement parallèlement aux affiches 2, à savoir leur bordure 10.These first means 9a firstly comprise a support member 17, extended horizontally parallel to the posters 2, namely their border 10.

Cet organe support 17 est souple et inextensible. Il se présente sous la forme d'une chaîne sans fin ou équivalent et fait partie également des moyens d'entraînement 16.This support member 17 is flexible and inextensible. It is in the form of an endless chain or equivalent and is also part of the drive means 16.

La chaîne sans fin 17 est montée glissante dans un organe de guidage 18 et elle est en prise avec des pignons dentés 19 montés calés sur l'axe 20 de rouleaux de guidage, déviation et renvoi des affiches 2.The endless chain 17 is slidably mounted in a guide member 18 and it is engaged with toothed pinions 19 mounted wedged on the axis 20 of guide rollers, deflection and return of the posters 2.

Les pignons 19 sont placés vers la partie extrême libre supérieure des axes 20.The pinions 19 are placed towards the upper free end part of the axes 20.

Les axes 20 sont disposés verticalement.The axes 20 are arranged vertically.

Dans la réalisation considérée, il est prévu trois paires de rouleaux 21, à savoir une paire de rouleaux frontaux 21a, une paire de rouleaux arrières 21b, et une paire de rouleaux médians 21c.In the embodiment under consideration, three pairs of rollers 21 are provided, namely a pair of front rollers 21a, a pair of rear rollers 21b, and a pair of middle rollers 21c.

Les rouleaux frontaux 21a sont situés à proximité de la fenêtre 8.The front rollers 21a are located near the window 8.

Les rouleaux arrières 21b sont situés à proximité de la grande face 7 opposée à la fenêtre 8 considérée.The rear rollers 21b are located near the large face 7 opposite the window 8 considered.

Quant aux rouleaux médians 21c, ils sont situés dans le plan médian vertical du panneau 1.As for the median rollers 21c, they are located in the vertical median plane of the panel 1.

Les rouleaux frontaux 21a et les rouleaux arrières 21b sont écartés les uns des autres et situés à proximité des parois verticales 6a de la ceinture 6.The front rollers 21a and the rear rollers 21b are spaced apart from each other and located near the vertical walls 6a of the belt 6.

Les rouleaux médians 21c sont au contraire écartés de ces parois verticales 6a et proches de l'axe horizontal de la ceinture 6.The median rollers 21c are on the contrary spaced from these vertical walls 6a and close to the horizontal axis of the belt 6.

Dans le cas où le panneau 1 comporte deux fenêtres 8 de part et d'autre, l'agencement et symétrique.In the case where the panel 1 has two windows 8 on either side, the arrangement is symmetrical.

L'un des rouleaux 21 comporte, calé sur son axe, un moteur ou motoréducteur appartenant aux moyens d'entraînement 16. De plus, l'un des rouleaux, notamment de la paire des rouleaux médians 21c est monté déplaçable horizontalement parallèlement au plan P de manière à encaisser les différences de longueur ou de tension des affiches 2.One of the rollers 21 comprises, wedged on its axis, a motor or geared motor belonging to the drive means 16. In addition, one of the rollers, in particular of the pair of median rollers 21c is mounted movable horizontally parallel to the plane P so as to accommodate differences in length or tension of posters 2.

L'organe de guidage 18 est agencé et disposé en plusieurs tronçons entre les différents rouleaux 21.The guide member 18 is arranged and arranged in several sections between the different rollers 21.

Cet organe de guidage 18 se présente, dans la réalisation plus spécialement représentée sur le dessin, sous la forme d'un profilé 22 en forme générale de U, dans lequel est monté une pièce en matière plastique comportant une cavité de guidage de la chaîne 17 à coulissement, avec la friction minimale.This guide member 18 is, in the embodiment more particularly shown in the drawing, in the form of a profile 22 in the general shape of a U, in which is mounted a plastic part comprising a guide cavity of the sliding chain 17, with minimum friction.

Le profilé 22 est fixé au bâti 3 par vissage, rivetage ou de toute autre manière équivalente appropriée.The profile 22 is fixed to the frame 3 by screwing, riveting or in any other appropriate equivalent manner.

Les premiers moyens support 9a comprennent ensuite une série de pattes 23 rigides fixées rigidement et transversalement à la chaîne 17. Ces pattes 24 sont régulièrement espacées les unes des autres. Elles sont dirigées vers le bas.The first support means 9a then comprise a series of rigid legs 23 rigidly fixed and transverse to the chain 17. These legs 24 are regularly spaced from one another. They are directed downwards.

Celles des pattes 24 qui sont situées en regard de la fenêtre 8 sont disposées de façon coplanaire et forment un plan d'appui 24 pour l'affiche 2 correspondante à savoir pour sa bordure 10.Those of the tabs 24 which are situated opposite the window 8 are arranged in a coplanar manner and form a support plane 24 for the corresponding poster 2, namely for its border 10.

Une patte 23 comporte une pièce 25 de forme générale parallélipèdiques, pourvue vers l'arrière d'un évidement 26 dont la forme est complémentaire de celle d'une pièce 27 rigide, coudée, fixée à un tourillon 28 d'un maillon de la chaîne 17.A lug 23 comprises a part 25 of generally rectangular shape, provided towards the rear with a recess 26 whose shape is complementary to that of a rigid, bent part 27, fixed to a pin 28 of a chain link 17.

Les deux pièces 25 et 27 sont fixées l'une à l'autre au moyen d'un organe de fixation tel qu'une vis, un rivet ou équivalent.The two parts 25 and 27 are fixed to each other by means of a fixing member such as a screw, a rivet or the like.

Le plan d'appui 24 est formé par la face frontale de la pièce 25. Ce plan d'appui 24 et cette face frontale se trouvent être coplanaires avec l'axe du tourillon 28.The support plane 24 is formed by the front face of the part 25. This support plane 24 and this front face happen to be coplanar with the axis of the pin 28.

Cette disposition évite les tensions intempestives non souhaitées sur les premiers moyens 9a, ce qui est important dans la mesure où ceux-ci participent également à l'entraînement de l'affiche 2.This arrangement avoids undesired unwanted voltages on the first means 9a, which is important insofar as these also participate in the training of the poster 2.

Au moins une partie des pattes 23 est pourvue frontalement de plots 30, disposés transversalement, frontalement.At least a portion of the legs 23 is provided frontally with studs 30, arranged transversely, frontally.

Ces plots 30 sont en saillie par rapport à la face frontale définissant le plan 24.These studs 30 project from the front face defining the plane 24.

Ces plots 30 sont destinés à traverser les oeillets 15 ménagés sur et dans la bordure horizontale supérieure 10.These studs 30 are intended to pass through the eyelets 15 formed on and in the upper horizontal border 10.

Les dimensions relatives des oeillets 15 et des plots 30 sont telles que leur coopération est rendue possible pour permettre l'amovibilité de l'affiche 2 mais empêcher son décrochement intempestif.The relative dimensions of the eyelets 15 and the studs 30 are such that their cooperation is made possible to allow the removability of the poster 2 but to prevent its untimely detachment.

A cet effet, il est prévu dans la réalisation considérée qu'un plot 30 comporte une base arrière 31 rétrécie formant gorge et, attenant à celle-ci, une partie renflée 32.To this end, provision is made in the embodiment under consideration for a stud 30 to include a narrowed rear base 31 forming a groove and, adjoining the latter, a bulged part 32.

Le cas échéant, la partie extrême libre frontale du plot 30 opposée à la base 31 forme une pointe 33.Where appropriate, the front free end portion of the stud 30 opposite the base 31 forms a point 33.

La gorge formée par la base rétrécie 31 est relativement peu ouverte de manière que la bordure 10 puisse venir s'y loger dans son épaisseur, à la périphérie des oeillets 15 en étant ajustée.The groove formed by the narrowed base 31 is relatively slightly open so that the edge 10 can be accommodated therein in its thickness, at the periphery of the eyelets 15 by being adjusted.

Toutefois, l'ouverture de la gorge est suffisamment ouverte -par exemple de l'ordre de dix à cinquante fois l'épaisseur de la bande 14- pour que la coopération de la bande 14 et de la gorge ne soit pas rendue impossible et que la gorge puisse encaisser les variations de planéité de la bande 14.However, the opening of the groove is sufficiently open - for example of the order of ten to fifty times the thickness of the strip 14 - so that the cooperation of the strip 14 and the groove is not made impossible and that the groove can absorb variations in the flatness of the strip 14.

Le cas échéant, la gorge a en section transversale un profil largement ouvert vers son ouverture pour faciliter la mise en place et l'enlèvement.Where appropriate, the groove has in cross section a profile which is broadly open towards its opening to facilitate installation and removal.

La bande 14 présentant une certaine souplesse peut être enfoncée à force dans un plot 30 grâce à la présence de la pointe 33 puis venir se loger dans la gorge formée par la base rétrécie 31.The strip 14 having a certain flexibility can be forced into a stud 30 by virtue of the presence of the tip 33 and then come to be housed in the groove formed by the narrowed base 31.

Les pattes 23 pourvues des plots 30 forment un premier groupe. Les pattes 23 dépourvues de plots 30 forment un second groupe. Les plots 30 sont écartés les uns des autres, les pattes 23 n'interférant pas les unes avec les autres. Il est prévu par exemple qu'une patte sur trois soit pourvue d'un plot 30 et deux sur trois en soient dépourvues. Les pattes 23 du second groupe jouent la fonction de plan d'appui 24 mais non de maintien positif de l'affiche 2.The legs 23 provided with the studs 30 form a first group. The legs 23 devoid of studs 30 form a second group. The pads 30 are spaced from each other, the tabs 23 do not interfere with each other. It is intended, for example, that one in three tabs is provided with a stud 30 and two in three does not. The legs 23 of the second group play the function of support plane 24 but not of positive support of the poster 2.

L'organe de guidage 18 est interrompu à proximité et en regard d'un pignon 19.The guide member 18 is interrupted near and opposite a pinion 19.

Un rouleau 21 comporte une paroi extérieure légèrement déformable par exemple réalisée en mousse de matière plastique. Cette structure permet d'encaisser les différences de tension exercées par une affiche le long d'un rouleau 21. En effet, de telles différences de tension sont inévitables du fait de la taille des affiches, des tolérances dimensionnelles, et des conditions opératoires (notamment climatiques).A roller 21 has a slightly deformable outer wall, for example made of plastic foam. This structure makes it possible to absorb the differences in tension exerted by a poster along a roll 21. Indeed, such differences in tension are inevitable due to the size of the posters, dimensional tolerances, and operating conditions (notably climatic).

Les rouleaux 21 comportent également en dessous des pignons 19 une partie creuse formant réserve de manière à permettre le passage de la chaîne 17.The rollers 21 also have a hollow part below the pinions 19 forming a reserve so as to allow the chain 17 to pass.

La structure considérée est telle que le plan d'appui 24 des pattes 23 est tangent ou sensiblement tangent à la surface périphérique d'appui des rouleaux 21. La présentation des affiches 2 s'en trouve améliorée et les différences de tension atténuées, sinon supprimées.The structure considered is such that the support plane 24 of the legs 23 is tangent or substantially tangent to the peripheral support surface of the rollers 21. The presentation of the posters 2 is thereby improved and the differences in tension reduced, if not eliminated .

On décrit maintenant plus spécialement les seconds moyens 9b.The second means 9b will now be described more specifically.

Ces seconds moyens 9b comprennent dans la réalisation représentée, deux ensembles 9ba, 9bb, similaires, placés dos à dos, situés à proximité l'un de l'autre, disposés parallèlement ou sensiblement parallèlement l'un à l'autre, reliés l'un à l'autre par un ou des organes élastiques et souples 34.These second means 9b comprise, in the embodiment shown, two sets 9ba, 9bb, similar, placed back to back, located close to one another, arranged parallel or substantially parallel to each other, connected to the one to the other by one or more elastic and flexible members 34.

Un ensemble tel que 9ba ou 9bb est placé verticalement par rapport aux affiches 2. Il comporte en premier lieu une pièce support 35, rigide, prenant la forme d'un fer plat ou d'un profilé. La pièce support 35 est fixée à sa partie extrême supérieure à la chaîne 17 et à sa partie extrême inférieure à un autre organe support 36 s'étendant parallèlement à la chaîne 17 mais écartée d'elle vers le bas et situé au voisinage de la bordure inférieure 11 de l'affiche 2.An assembly such as 9ba or 9bb is placed vertically with respect to the posters 2. It comprises firstly a support piece 35, rigid, taking the form of a flat iron or a profile. The support piece 35 is fixed at its upper end part to the chain 17 and at its lower end part to another support member 36 extending parallel to the chain 17 but spaced from it downwards and located in the vicinity of the edge poster 11 of poster 2.

L'organe support 36 peut avoir les mêmes structure et forme générales que la chaîne 17. Sa fonction est de porter les pièces support 35 en synchronisme avec la chaîne 17 de manière que les pièces 35 restent verticales, tout en étant déplacées horizontalement, parallèlement à elles-mêmes grâce aux moyens d'entraînement 16.The support member 36 may have the same general structure and shape as the chain 17. Its function is to carry the support pieces 35 in synchronism with the chain 17 so that the pieces 35 remain vertical, while being moved horizontally, parallel to themselves thanks to the drive means 16.

Chaque pièce 35 est fixée à la chaîne 17 respectivement à la patte 23, ainsi qu'à l'organe support 36 de toutes manières appropriées. Par exemple par usinage ou rivetage. Cette fixation est, le cas échéant, amovible. Le cas échéant, il est prévu que la fixation de la pièce support 35 à la chaîne 17, respectivement à l'organe support 36 autorise un certain débattement relatif des pièces les unes par rapport aux autres.Each part 35 is fixed to the chain 17 respectively to the lug 23, as well as to the support member 36 in any suitable manner. For example by machining or riveting. This attachment is, if necessary, removable. Where appropriate, provision is made for the attachment of the support part 35 to the chain 17, respectively to the support member 36, allowing a certain relative movement of the parts with respect to each other.

Chaque ensemble 9ba, 9bb des seconds moyens support 9b comporte ensuite une série de plots 37 fixés transversalement, frontalement et en saillie sur la pièce support 35. Ces plots 37 sont régulièrement espacés les uns des autres et dirigés vers la fenêtre 8.Each set 9ba, 9bb of the second support means 9b then comprises a series of studs 37 fixed transversely, frontally and projecting from the support piece 35. These studs 37 are regularly spaced from one another and directed towards the window 8.

Les plots 37 sont destinés à coopérer avec les oeillets 15 des bandes 14 formant les bordures latérales, verticales 12, d'une manière analogue aux plots 30 en relation avec les oeillets 15 de la bordure horizontale supérieure 10.The studs 37 are intended to cooperate with the eyelets 15 of the bands 14 forming the lateral, vertical edges 12, in a manner analogous to the studs 30 in relation to the eyelets 15 of the upper horizontal edge 10.

La pièce support 35 comprend une partie d'appui plane 38 et sur son bord longitudinal vertical externe (c'est-à-dire opposé à l'affiche 2 qu'elle supporte) une aile saillante 39 s'étendant également verticalement dirigée horizontalement vers la fenêtre 8. La partie 38 forme pour l'affiche 2 un appui, au même titre que la face frontale des pattes 23 définissant le plan d'appui 24 .The support part 35 comprises a flat support part 38 and on its external vertical longitudinal edge (that is to say opposite the poster 2 which it supports) a projecting wing 39 also extending vertically directed horizontally towards window 8. Part 38 forms a support for the poster 2, in the same way as the front face of the legs 23 defining the support plane 24.

Les plans d'appui des moyens 9a, 9b, sont coplanaires ou sensiblement coplanaires.The support planes of the means 9a, 9b are coplanar or substantially coplanar.

Les plots 37 peuvent être du même type que les plots 30 déjà décrits en relation avec les premiers moyens 9a. Tous les plots 30, 37 d'une affiche 2 en regard de la fenêtre 8 s'étendent horizontalement perpendiculairement au plan P et parallèlement à l'axe horizontal de la ceinture 6.The pads 37 can be of the same type as the pads 30 already described in relation to the first means 9a. All the studs 30, 37 of a poster 2 opposite the window 8 extend horizontally perpendicular to the plane P and parallel to the horizontal axis of the belt 6.

A sa partie extrême supérieure, la pièce support 35 comporte une lumière 40 destinée à être traversée par un plot 30 des premiers moyens support 9a. A cet endroit, la pièce 35 est appliquée par sa face opposée à la fenêtre 8 contre la patte 23 correspondante.At its upper end, the support part 35 includes a lumen 40 intended to be crossed by a stud 30 of the first support means 9a. At this point, the part 35 is applied by its face opposite the window 8 against the corresponding tab 23.

La lumière 40 est suffisamment large pour permettre un certain débattement relatif de la pièce support 35 par rapport aux premiers moyens support 9a.The light 40 is wide enough to allow a certain relative movement of the support part 35 relative to the first support means 9a.

Les deux ensembles 9ba et 9bb sont reliés l'un à l'autre par un ou plusieurs organes élastiques et souples 34 tels que deux rubans aplatis situés au moins vers les parties extrêmes supérieure et inférieure des ensembles 9ba, 9bb.The two sets 9ba and 9bb are connected to one another by one or more elastic and flexible members 34 such as two flattened ribbons located at least towards the upper and lower end parts of the sets 9ba, 9bb.

Ces rubans 34 sont fixés rigidement aux deux pièces support 35, des deux ensembles 9ba et 9bb.These ribbons 34 are rigidly fixed to the two support parts 35, of the two assemblies 9ba and 9bb.

Les rubans élastiques et souples 34 sont en tension. Ils autorisent un certain débattement limité des deux ensembles 9ba, 9bb l'un par rapport à l'autre pour tenir compte des différences de tension pouvant exister.The elastic and flexible tapes 34 are under tension. They allow some limited travel of two sets 9ba, 9bb relative to each other to take account of the voltage differences that may exist.

Dans la réalisation considérée, les rubans 34 sont fixés sur la face frontale des pièces support 35 en traversant des fentes 41 ménagées à cet effet dans l'aile saillante 39.In the embodiment under consideration, the ribbons 34 are fixed to the front face of the support pieces 35 by passing through slots 41 provided for this purpose in the projecting wing 39.

L'existence du ruban 34 sur la face frontale d'une pièce support 35 est telle que l'affiche 2 se trouve être appliquée sur le ruban 34 ce qui est favorable pour la tenue de l'affiche 2 en créant une sorte de coincement sur la pièce 35.The existence of the tape 34 on the front face of a support piece 35 is such that the poster 2 is found to be applied to the tape 34 which is favorable for the holding of the poster 2 by creating a sort of wedging on Exhibit 35.

Il résulte de ce qui précède qu'une affiche 2 est fixée au panneau d'affichage 1, de place en place, avec un espacement régulier, tant le long de son bord supérieur que de son bord inférieur.It follows from the above that a poster 2 is fixed to the display panel 1, from place to place, with regular spacing, both along its upper edge than its lower edge.

L'affiche 2 est ainsi convenablement fixée 2, sans risque de décrochage intempestif et tout en tenant compte des contraintes découlant de la taille de l'affiche, des tolérances dimensionnelles du panneau d'affichage et de l'affiche et, enfin, des conditions d'utilisation, notamment climatiques.The poster 2 is thus suitably fixed 2, without risk of untimely stalling and while taking into account the constraints arising from the size of the poster, the dimensional tolerances of the display panel and the poster and, finally, the conditions of use, especially climatic.

Il est prévu également une bande d'occultation 42 souple, opaque, fixée rigidement à l'un des ensembles 9ba, 9bb, vers l'arrière et venant à recouvrement sur l'autre ensemble 9bb, et 9ba également à l'arrière mais sans être fixée à lui. Cette bande d'occultation 42 est particulièrement utile lorsque le panneau d'affichage 1 comporte un éclairage intérieur permettant la visualisation des affiches 2 par transparence. Grâce à la présence de la bande d'occultation 42, la lumière entre deux affiches 2 dans l'espace libre existant entre les deux ensembles 9ba et 9bb est occultée.A flexible, opaque masking strip 42 is also provided, rigidly fixed to one of the assemblies 9ba, 9bb, towards the rear and overlapping on the other assembly 9bb, and 9ba also at the rear but without be attached to him. This concealment strip 42 is particularly useful when the display panel 1 has interior lighting allowing the viewing of the posters 2 by transparency. Thanks to the presence of the blackout strip 42, the light between two posters 2 in the free space existing between the two sets 9ba and 9bb is obscured.

Il est prévu par ailleurs les moyens complémentaires de maintien 43 des affiches 2 sous la forme d'un profilé comprenant une partie d'appui plane 44, comportant des lumières 45 destinées à être traversées par les plots 37, et une aile saillante 46 dirigée vers la fenêtre 8.The additional means 43 for holding the posters 2 are also provided in the form of a profile comprising a flat support part 44, comprising lights 45 intended to be crossed by the studs 37, and a projecting wing 46 directed towards window 8.

Pour la mise en place d'une affiche 2 telle qu'elle vient d'être décrite, on ouvre la fenêtre 8 du panneau d'affichage 1 ce qui permet d'avoir accès aux moyens support 9. Ceux-ci étant présumés à ce moment libres de toute affiche 2, on peut mettre en place une affiche telle que 2 en faisant coopérer les oeillets 15 des bordures 10, 11 et 12 avec les plots 30 et 37, respectivement.For the installation of a poster 2 as just described, the window 8 of the display panel 1 is opened, which gives access to the support means 9. These being presumed to be moment free from any poster 2, one can set up a poster such as 2 by making the eyelets 15 of the edges 10, 11 and 12 cooperate with the studs 30 and 37, respectively.

On procède à cet effet en trois étapes successives :

  • la mise en place des oeillets 15 correspondant à la bordure latérale verticale 12 située en amont par rapport au sens de défilement de l'affiche 2.
  • La mise en place d'un premier moyen 43 complémentaire de maintien de l'affiche sur la bordure latérale verticale 12 amont.
  • Puis, la mise en place des oeillets 15 correspondant à la bordure horizontale supérieure 10 et celle de la bordure latérale verticale 12 amont vers la bordure la bordure verticale 12 aval.
  • La mise en place des oeillets 15 correspondant à la bordure latérale verticale aval 12.
  • Et enfin, la mise en place d'un second moyen de maintien complémentaire 43 de l'affiche 2 sur la bordure latérale verticale 12 aval.
This is done in three successive steps:
  • the positioning of the eyelets 15 corresponding to the vertical lateral border 12 situated upstream with respect to the direction of travel of the poster 2.
  • The establishment of a first complementary means 43 for holding the poster on the vertical lateral edge 12 upstream.
  • Then, the positioning of the eyelets 15 corresponding to the upper horizontal border 10 and that of the vertical lateral border 12 upstream towards the border the vertical border 12 downstream.
  • The positioning of the eyelets 15 corresponding to the downstream vertical lateral border 12.
  • And finally, the establishment of a second complementary holding means 43 of the poster 2 on the vertical lateral edge 12 downstream.

Pour enlever une affiche 2, on procède de manière analogue mais inversée : d'abord la bordure latérale amont, puis la bordure horizontale supérieure et, enfin, la bordure latérale aval.To remove a poster 2, we proceed in a similar but inverted manner: first the upstream side border, then the upper horizontal border and, finally, the downstream side border.
