Definitions

  • the invention relates to an advertising system for mounting to a side panel of a vehicle.
  • the invention also relates to fastening means for fastening an advertising panel to a side panel of a vehicle.
  • load-carrying road vehicles having substantially vertical sides which are either plain, or carry minimal information (e.g. merely the name of a transport company). These vehicle sides are extensively exposed to the sight of the general public, not least because the majority of journeys of load-carrying road vehicles take place on public roads that are also extensively used by pedestrians and/or users of personal road transport and/or passengers in public road transport.
  • the sides of load-carrying road vehicles represent a facility for mobile advertising that currently tends to be used only by the vehicle owners for self-advertisement.
  • Some use of the exteriors of road vehicles is known for advertising by organisations other than the vehicle owner, but such advertising is currently limited to public transport vehicles that carry human passengers rather than inanimate cargoes, and the advertisements are either pasted-on paper, or in the nature of bodywork painting that is substantially permanent and not changeable without time-consuming repainting of the vehicle.
  • US 5,845,423 and US 5,657,566 address the problem of providing advertisements on the sides of load-carrying road vehicles, but the effectiveness of their solutions is hampered by the fact that the vehicles need extensive structural modification in the form of added rails, mounting brackets and fasteners and the like, to allow the mounting and removal of advertisement panels. Moreover the advertisement panels themselves are complicated and relatively expensive. Moreover the advertisement panels can be used only with rigid sided vehicles, since they do not allow simple access to the side curtains of flexible sided vehicles, which provide access to the load area by allowing the removal or rolling up of flexible side curtains attached to the frame of the vehicle.
  • US 2002/0056215 discloses a mounting assembly for fastening an advertising panel to the side of a vehicle.
  • the assembly includes track members which engage the advertising panel.
  • DE 100 33 243 A1 discloses a reflective strip for attachment to the rear door of a lorry.
  • the reflective strip has a rigid channel which fixes to the door and soft sealing strips so that the door seals properly.
  • US 4,154,504 discloses a stand-alone safety reflective seal trim strip made of many smaller reflectors, for use on vehicles and signs.
  • a fastening means for fastening an advertising panel to a side panel of a vehicle according to claim 1 and an advertising system according to claim 10.
  • reflective strip should be understood to include a surface comprising discrete reflectors, lamps or the like
  • side panel should be understood to include both rigid vehicle side panels and vehicle side panels formed by curtains.
  • vehicle refers to a road vehicle possessing one or more side panels suitable for carrying advertisements, such sides including but not being restricted to permanently fixed sides, sides formed as one or more panels that are demountable or hinged for providing access to a cargo carried by the vehicle, and curtain sides (i.e. curtains of more or less flexible sheet material whose upper edges are suspended from the vehicle, and whose lower edges are clipped or strapped to the vehicle).
  • side panels suitable for carrying advertisements, such sides including but not being restricted to permanently fixed sides, sides formed as one or more panels that are demountable or hinged for providing access to a cargo carried by the vehicle, and curtain sides (i.e. curtains of more or less flexible sheet material whose upper edges are suspended from the vehicle, and whose lower edges are clipped or strapped to the vehicle).
  • the term “advertisement” refers to at least one essentially two-dimensional image having an impression on a spectator that is primarily or wholly visual.
  • the fastening means comprises a single track member
  • it may comprise a plurality of panel engagement means spaced apart along the track.
  • parts of the track intermediate the spaced apart panel engagement means will comprise a reflecting surface, typically a reflecting strip.
  • the single track member may comprise a continuous reflecting surface such as a reflecting strip.
  • the track member comprises an elongated plate having an upper portion and a lower portion, wherein the lower portion includes panel engagement means, and wherein the upper portion includes reflecting means such as a reflective strip.

  • the plasticised warp and weft fibres have a width of about 1 mm, while the apertures are about 1 mm square.
  • An opaque effect is produced if the apertures make up about 25% or less of the area of the panel. If the apertures make up more than about 35% of the area of the panel the opacity effect is diminished.
  • Reinforcing strips (not shown) of reinforced PVC or similar material may be bonded to any or all of the edges of the advertising panel 8 to prevent the advertising panel 8 from tearing or stretching in use.
  • the reinforcing strips may be bonded by adhesive or by ultrasonic welding.
  • the strips may be of polypropylene or polyester scrim coated with PVC for easy joining to the panel 8. The thickness of the strips is chosen so that the panel 8 can be subject to the chosen printing process even with the strips attached.
  • the reinforcing strips are between 5 and 15 cm wide, and extend to a perimeter of the panel 8.
  • the panel 8 is installed on a vehicle 1 by threading the elongate fasteners 15 at the top and bottom edges of the panel 8 into the slotted track members 6, 7 simultaneously and pulling the panel horizontally until it extends from one vertical side to the other of the supporting surface. The vertical edges of the panel are then secured using any suitable securing means.
  • a continuous fastener preferably a fastener 15 which can engage with the slotted track members 6, 7 or a fastener such as a hook and loop fastener (not shown), extending all the way along the leading edge of the advertising panel 8.
  • the leading edge is that edge which is nearer the front of the vehicle in use.
  • the use of a continuous fastener engaging with a corresponding continuous fastener on the vehicle 1 prevents the leading edge of the panel 8 lifting away from the vehicle at any point, and helps to hold the panel 8 to the side panel 2 or curtain 30 without flapping. The same effect can be achieved by continuing the panel around the corner of the vehicle and securing it in place by any suitable means to the end wall of the vehicle.
  • the advertising system includes an auxiliary fastening means 21 provided by a 3M Dual Lock system in which a first fastener 22 attached to the side panel 2 of a vehicle is adapted to engage a second fastener 23 attached to a rear face of the track member 6, 7.
