Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for advertising purposes according to claim 1.
  • the invention relates to a method for mounting an advertising sheet on such a device according to claim 9.
  • Advertising masts are often placed along motorways or at other locations where thousands of people pass daily.
  • Advertising masts can be for instance 25 metres high and carry an advertising sheet of 8 metres wide by 12 metres high.
  • Mounting of the advertising sheet on the frame of the advertising mast takes place by means of tensioning belts which are passed through eyes on the side edges of the sheet and then fastened to the frame on the rear side thereof.
  • the use of a crane is essential here. While suspended on the front side of the frame, the sheet is gradually fastened all around to the frame with tensioning belts. There is the possibility here of the wind blowing behind the sheet while it is not yet completely mounted. The mounting of an advertising sheet on a mast is therefore made more difficult in bad weather conditions.
  • the use of a crane and the many fastening operations make mounting of the advertising sheet a labour-intensive and costly business.
  • An advertising device according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from US-B-6192611.
  • an advertising sheet is securely fastened on its two opposite side edges to angling plates which have to be slidably engaged into U-shaped beams having groove-like openings.
  • the U-shaped beams on their turn have to be attached to arms via rod members.
  • the arms are fixed at one side onto an upstanding post.
  • This known advertising device has similar drawbacks as described above.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device for advertising purposes wherein the above stated drawbacks are obviated.
  • a device for advertising purposes is characterized in that the frame comprises at least one board which is provided with two grooves located at a mutual distance for receiving in form-fitting manner two thicker parts which are located at a mutual distance and which are arranged close to or on at least two opposite side edges of the advertising sheet.
  • the advertising sheet can be placed from one side of the frame into the grooves in rapid and simple manner and slide therethrough until the sheet is hung fully on the front side of the frame.
  • the board will keep the wind out of the advertising sheet during mounting thereof.
  • the advertising sheet can be placed from one side of the frame into the grooves in rapid and simple manner and slide therethrough until the sheet is hung fully on the front side of the frame.
  • the grooves run from top to bottom along the side of the frame remote from the mast. Use can be made in advantageous manner of the force of gravity in mounting the advertising sheet.
  • the advertising sheet Since the advertising sheet is manufactured from a limp material, the sheet will tend to sag when it is threaded into the grooves with the side edges.
  • the advertising sheet is preferably pulled taut in its plane to enable the advertising message shown on the sheet to be presented properly.
  • Tensioning means for tensioning the sheet are provided for this purpose on the side of the frame directed toward the mast. On the rear side of the frame there are often provided walking grids of which use can then be made.
  • each groove is located in a profile beam which is preferably displaceable transversely of its longitudinal direction relative to the frame.
  • the tensioning means comprise a displacing member engaging on the profile beam. Using the tensioning means a profile beam connecting to one side edge can be displaced and the advertising sheet therefore tightened. In the case of advertising sheets of relatively large dimensions it may be necessary to tighten the advertising sheet on both the threaded side edges.
  • the two spaced-apart profile beams with grooves are then arranged displaceably relative to the frame, while tensioning means are provided close to each profile beam, preferably on the side of the frame directed toward the mast.
  • the displacing member comprises a controllable screw spindle and an engaging element co-acting therewith for engaging on the profile beam.
  • the screw spindle When operated, the screw spindle will begin to rotate and displace the engaging element with profile beam. The side edge of the sheet in the groove of the profile beam will be co-displaced.
  • the invention relates to a method for mounting an advertising sheet on the above described device for advertising purposes, wherein the advertising sheet is threaded, with thicker parts arranged close to or on two side edges thereof, from the one side of the frame to the other in two spaced-apart grooves. This preferably takes place from top to bottom, so that use can be made in useful manner of the force of gravity during the threading.
  • the sheet is further tensioned on at least one side edge threaded in the groove in order to pull the sheet smoothly taut and present properly the advertising image printed thereon.
  • the lower side edge of the advertising sheet is preferably first secured to the frame prior to tensioning, and the upper side edge of the advertising sheet is then pulled up and secured to the frame.
  • Fig. 1 shows a preferred embodiment of a device for advertising purposes, also referred to as an advertising mast.
  • the advertising mast comprises a mast 1 and a triangular frame 2 placed thereon.
  • Triangular frame 2 is intended to bear an advertising sheet 3 on three sides remote from mast 1. It is noted that other forms of frame are also possible, for instance for mounting an advertising sheet 3 on only one, two or more than three sides of mast 1.
  • a frame 2 often comprises one or more boards 4 which keep the wind out of advertising sheet 3.
  • Boards 4 are fixed to mast 1 via walking grids 5 and framework construction 6.
  • Walking grids 5 are located at different heights of frame 2 to facilitate mounting of an advertising sheet 3.
  • the uppermost walking grid 5 forms a kind of window-ledge on which advertising sheet 3 can lie before and during mounting thereof.
  • Each board 4 of frame 2 is provided with two grooves 7 located at a mutual distance for receiving two thicker parts 8 which are located at a mutual distance and which are arranged on two opposite side edges of advertising sheet 3.
  • Advertising sheet 3 is often manufactured from nylon-reinforced vinyl so that a thicker part 8, for instance in the form of a steel wire, can be readily sown into a hem of sheet 3.
  • Each groove 7 is situated in a profile beam 10 running from Lop to bottom over the whole or almost the whole height of board 4.
  • Fig. 2 shows the left-hand lower corner of one of the boards 4 of figure 1.
  • the side edge of sheet 3 is received with its thicker part 8 in form-fitting manner in a groove 7.
  • the side edge of advertising sheet 3 can slide in longitudinal direction of groove 7, but is enclosed in groove 7 in a direction transversely thereof.
  • the groove 7 in profile beam 10 is shown clearly in this figure.
  • Profile beam 10 lies in turn in a profile beam 11.
  • Profile beam 11 is of elongate U-shaped cross-section, wherein a transverse wall 14 is arranged between legs 12,13 of the U. A space is formed between side wall 13 and transverse wall 14 to receive profile beam 10 in form-fitting manner.
  • Fig. 2 further designates with reference numeral 15 a corner profile on the edges of board 4 and with reference numeral 16 a hook-like fastening element for securing the lower side edge of advertising sheet 3.
  • the lower side edge of sheet 3 is also provided with a thicker part 8 on which is threaded a profile beam 10 with groove 7.
  • a number of short lengths of profile beam 11 are slid onto profile beam 10.
  • the lengths of profile beam 11 drop between recesses in corner profile 15 on the underside of board 4.
  • a number of hooks 16 which can each be operated from the rear of board 4 by a rotatable operating member 17 (see also Fig. 3).
  • Each hook-like fastening element 16 is hooked behind a length of profile beam 11 to secure the lower side edge of sheet 3.
  • FIG. 3 In the detail view of Fig. 3 the right-hand lower corner of board 4 is shown as seen from the rear side thereof.
  • the rotatable operating member 17 for hook 16 is clearly shown here.
  • Operating member 17 with fixing member 16 is received rotatably in a hollow tube 18 which is fixed with clamping plates 19 to walking grid 5.
  • a coupling pin 20 which couples tube 18 and operating member 17 non-rotatingly to each other.
  • Fig. 3 further shows a tensioning mechanism 21 for tensioning the advertising sheet 3.
  • tensioning mechanism 21 is fastened at different heights to the rear side of board 4 and engages via openings in board 4 on the side edge of sheet 3.
  • Tensioning mechanism 21 consists of a screw spindle 22 which can be operated by means of handle 23 and an engaging element 24 co-acting with screw spindle 22 for engaging on profile beam 10 (see also Fig. 4).
  • Spindle 22 is received rotatably in a housing formed by four angle profiles 25 fixed to the rear side of board 4.
  • Engaging element 24 is formed by a block 26 which is placed on spindle 22 and has internal screw thread and by profile beam 11.
  • connection between block 26 and profile beam 11 is realized by means of a pin 27 which protrudes through the opening in board 4 and which is carried by block 26.
  • the spindle 22 is rotated and displaces block 26 with pin 27.
  • Profile beam 11 on the front side of board 4 is herein also displaced. Owing to the form-fitting connection between transverse wall 14 and side wall 13 the profile beam 11 will carry along profile beam 10 and therefore the side edge of sheet 3. It is noted that it is not necessary to provide the profile beam 11 along the whole height of board 4. Lengths of profile beam 11 at the position of each tensioning mechanism 21 are sufficient to tension sheet 3.
  • an advertising sheet 3 is preferably lowered from the top downward, as indicated with an arrow in Fig. 1.
  • People herein stand on the top of the device on a walking grid 3 in order to lower the sheet 3 in the grooves 7 of profile beam 10.
  • lengths of profile beam 10 coupled to lengths of profile beam 11 are threaded onto the lower side edge of sheet 3.
  • the hook-like fastening elements 16 are hooked behind the lengths of profile beam 11 to secure the lower side edge of sheet 3.
  • Sheet 3 is then pulled up slightly on the upper side edge and secured to frame 2, wherein use can also be made of the same profile beams 10,11 and/or tensioning belts. Finally, sheet 3 is tensioned on one or both threaded side edges by operating tensioning mechanisms 21 from below.
  • At least one of the profile beams 10 for receiving the side edges of sheet 3 to be threaded is displaceable transversely of its longitudinal direction relative to board 4 to enable sheet 3 to be tensioned.
  • this profile beam 10 is received in (lengths of) profile beam 11 which can be displaced relative to board 4 by means of tensioning mechanisms 21.
  • the other non-displaceable profile beam 10 is for instance mounted directly on corner profile 15. In the case of relatively large advertising sheets it is often necessary to arranged both profile beams 10 displaceably on frame 2 so as to be able to tension the sheet adequately. This embodiment is shown in the figures.
