Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of the display. More particularly, the invention relates to a display device capable of being adapted to any support, fixed or mobile, such as a wall or a vehicle.
  • the poster can be commonly placed in a box closed by a transparent surface. This technique causes difficulties for large display formats, either for making such boxes, or when they are used to install or replace a poster.
  • the poster has regularly distributed perforations on at least one of its edges, these perforations being intended to cooperate with lugs or other hooks secured to the support.
  • the means of attachment are rather crude and do not exclude the possibility of unexpected or malicious stalls, the maintenance of the poster on its support being not sufficiently rigid and / or protected from manipulation by unauthorized persons .
  • the invention particularly aims to overcome these disadvantages of the prior art.
  • the object of the invention is in particular to provide a device for the fixing of reliable displays and adapted to any support, fixed or mobile, exposed to bad weather or not.
  • the invention aims to provide a device that allows to display the poster in tension in different directions, and preferably in all directions.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a device in which the attachment means are protected from the weather.
  • the invention also aims to prohibit direct access to the attachment means by unauthorized persons, particularly for the purpose of stealing the displayed poster.
  • Yet another object of the invention is to provide a poster hanging device which can be declined according to the power requirements of the poster.
  • the invention also aims to provide a poster hanging device that can be easily made for all poster sizes, including large formats.
  • the invention also aims to provide such a device that is simple and effective, and can be manufactured economically.
  • Another object of the invention is to propose a method of mounting such a device that can be realized by a non-specialized person.
  • a device for fixing posters on any support of the type comprising a plurality of lugs provided on said support or on at least a cross member fixed on said support, said lugs being intended to cooperate with perforations in at least one edge of a poster.
  • the device comprises at least one holding piece cooperating with said lugs and intended to press the perforated edge of said poster against said support or said crosspiece.
  • the device comprises means for locking said holding member on said support or said crosspiece. In this way, we secure the exhibition of the poster against theft for example.
  • said holding piece has a gutter pierced with orifices for the passage of said lugs.
  • a holding part whose length covers the entirety of the lugs.
  • said locking means are slidably mounted in said channel.
  • said locking means comprise at least one profile having at least one opening, for the passage of at least one of said lugs, said opening communicating with a chute lined with at least one inclined ramp forming a cam so that the displacement of said chute on said pin leads to blocking or unlocking said locking means.
  • the holding pieces and the locking means can be designed and manufactured separately. In order to reduce the number of parts and facilitate assembly, said locking means are integral with said holding part.
  • said holding member comprises a first inclined plane for folding said poster against said support.
  • said holding member has at its periphery a second inclined plane. This protects the periphery of the device against various projections of rainwater or small objects.
  • the device comprises at least one seal fitted between said holding piece and said crosspiece.
  • the poster can be held against the second inclined plane, to prevent the border of the poster from fading.
  • said crosspiece comprises a groove for cooperating with means projecting from said holding part, for maintaining said poster.
  • the device comprises finishing pieces intended to be secured to the ends of said crossmember, said finishing pieces at least partially covering the assembly formed by at least a part of said holding member and at least a part of said locking means.
  • the device comprises an upper cross member and a lower cross member. We can thus extend the poster in its height.
  • the device comprises a set of sleepers forming a frame.
  • the poster can be stretched in all directions.
  • the general principle of the invention is therefore based on an assembly of means whose functions complement each other to firmly hold the poster against a support, to preserve it from the action of the weather, to stretch it in different directions and to avoid it is easily removed from the device for the purpose of stealing it.
  • Figure 1 there is shown a device for attaching a poster 10 according to the invention, in the assembled state.
  • the poster 10 is hung on a crosspiece 21 provided with a plurality of lugs 211 ( Figure 2b) introduced into the perforations (not shown) provided for this purpose on at least one of the edges of the poster.
  • the lugs 211 are regularly distributed on the cross member 21 or the support 1, being spaced from each other by 10 to 20 cm, their spacing corresponding anyway to that of the perforations of the poster 10, or vice versa.
  • the poster 10 may be in one piece or be reconstructed using several bands or lais.
  • the bands overlap so that, in particular for posters on a moving support, the trailing edge of one band partially overlaps the leading edge of the adjacent band, in the direction of movement of the support.
  • the cross member 21 is intended to be fixed on any plane support 1 (represented by dashed lines); alternatively, the lugs 211 may directly be secured to the support 1. More often however, especially when the poster is exposed on the walls of a vehicle, it will use the cross members 21.
  • the device further comprises a holding part 31 intended to cooperate with the crosspiece 21 to increase the holding of the poster 10, the latter being trapped between the two parts 21 and 31.
  • the crosspiece has a gutter 212 ( Figure 2a) while the holding member 31 has a protruding portion 311 ( Figure 3), the gutter 212 and the element 311 having a substantially triangular section.
  • the holding member 31 forces the display 10 to conform to the shape of the gutter 212 and holds it firmly in place, including when stretched.
  • the holding element 31 has a gutter 312 pierced with orifices 313 regularly distributed so as to correspond with the arrangement of the lugs 211 borne by the crosspiece 21 or the support 10.
  • the holding element 31 is extended by a first inclined plane 314, intended to fold the poster 10 on the support 1.
  • the poster is thus brought to bear against the support 1, or at least in a plane very close to that of the support.
  • the holding piece 31 Opposite the first inclined plane 314, the holding piece 31 has a second inclined plane 315 which protects the periphery of the device against various projections of rainwater or small objects that could eventually damage the poster or the device itself.
  • the crosspiece 21 has a chute 213 whose walls each include a groove 214, 215 forming a housing for receiving the base of a seal 11. This seal is dimensioned so that it fits between the cross member 21 and the 31. The end of the poster 10 is thus pressed against the holding piece 31, avoiding him faseyer.
  • Bores may be provided in the chute 213 and in the gutter 216 for the passage of securing means, for example by screwing, of the cross member 21 on the support 1.
  • Locking means 41 cooperate with the lugs 211 to firmly hold the workpiece 31 against the crosspiece 21, the display 10 being wedged between the two.
  • the locking means 41 are designed to slide in the gutter 312 of the holding piece as will now be explained with reference to FIGS. 4a to 4f.
  • the locking means 41 are profiles whose section forms a U whose amounts are folded inwards to delimit a slide 411. The latter has on each of its edges at least one notch 412, forming an opening for the passage of the head 2111 of an ergot 211.
  • Each notch 212 communicates with an inclined ramp 414 integrated with each blank 413 of the slide 411.
  • the locking means 41 are introduced into the trough 312 of the holding part 31, positioned so that the lugs 211 penetrate inside the locking means through the openings 412. The locking means are then slid. locking 41 in the gutter 312, so that the head 2111 of the lugs 211 move along the ramps 414 cam, to a locking position.
  • the device described here uses a holding part 31 and locking means 41 designed separately. It is however possible to collect their function on one and the same profiled piece having alternately the projecting means 311 and the locking means 41 next to each other.
  • FIG. 5a to 5f there is shown a finishing part 51 to be attached to the device.
  • the piece 51 presented by way of example forms an angle and is therefore particularly intended for an application of the invention according to which the crosspieces 21 form a frame around the poster.
  • the part 51 has flanges 511 and 512 shaped to fit respectively the shape of the inclined planes 315 and 314 of the holding member 31, at least partially covering me.
  • a groove 513 is provided to contain the part of the locking means 41 projecting from the groove 312 of the holding piece 31.
  • Bores 514 are provided for the passage of securing means, for example screws, of the part 51 for example on the locking means 41, the latter then being fixedly held in the locked position.
  • the part 51 as described is thus reported at each corner of the frame device. It can also be considered itself in the form of a monobloc frame.
  • the part 51 can then be adapted to form a cap at the end of the cross member according to the same principle.
  • the poster (10) can be weighted in its lower part to give it a taut appearance.
  • the poster (10) will be fixed on the support a high cross and a lower cross separated by a distance appropriate to the height of the poster (10).
  • the device according to the invention shaped frame.
  • FIGS. 6a and 6b illustrate the device in the assembled state, the finishing part 51 covering the holding parts 31 and the locking means 41.
  • the poster is thus held firmly stretched in all directions, the dismantling of the various parts being necessary to access the poster, thus deterring any attempt to steal the poster.
  • All parts of the device can be made by molding and / or extrusion, aluminum, metal alloy or composite material.
  • the method of mounting a device for hanging posters according to the invention comprises in particular the following steps.
  • At least one cross member 21 or frame 71 shaped according to the same principle as the cross members 21 is fixed on the support 1.
  • a poster 10 is put in place by matching the perforations it carries with the lugs 211 of the cross member 21 or of the frame 71.
  • the poster 10 is then pressed against the crossmember 21 or the frame 71 with at least one holding piece 31.
  • the holding part or pieces 31 are then secured to said crossmember 21 or said frame 71 by means of said locking means 41.
  • Finishing pieces 51 are then attached at least on each end of the crosspieces 21 or at least at each corner of the frame 71 and are secured there for example by screwing.
  • the editing method described above can be performed simply, without complicated tools, by non-specialized personnel.
