Abstract

The device has two sensors (34) placed at a level of side edges of a series of posters (18) and detecting reference marks. Two reference marks are placed at the level of respective side edges of initial and final poster to be shown. A rolling direction of cylinders (24,26) is changed according to the marks detected by the sensors. The cylinders are directly connected with one free edge of the series of posters. An independent claim is also included for a poster display panel comprising a poster rolling control device.

Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif de contrôle et de gestion du défilement d'affiches déroulantes ainsi qu'à un panneau de présentation d'affiches incorporant ledit dispositif.The present invention relates to a device for controlling and managing the scrolling of scrolling posters and a presentation panel posters incorporating said device.

Les dispositifs pour affiches déroulantes comprennent une surface de présentation au niveau de laquelle défilent les affiches disposées les unes à la suite des autres, tendues entre deux cylindres disposés chacun de part et d'autre de la surface de présentation et sur lesquels lesdites affiches s'enroulent. Au moins un des deux cylindres et généralement les deux sont entraínés en rotation à l'aide d'une motorisation. Des moyens de pilotage sont prévus pour commander la rotation des cylindres et leur sens de rotation afin que lesdites affiches marquent un temps d'arrêt au niveau de la surface de présentation. Ainsi, les affiches stockées sur un premier cylindre défilent et s'enroulent sur le second cylindre, chaque affiche marquant un temps d'arrêt au niveau de la surface de présentation. Dès qu'elles sont stockées sur le second cylindre, le sens de défilement est inversé de manière à ce qu'elles s'enroulent au niveau du premier cylindre et ainsi de suite. Le défilement des affiches est programmé en fonction du nombre d'affiches, les moyens de pilotage inversant le sens de rotation des cylindres après n arrêts ou n translations, n correspondant au nombre d'affiches disposées les unes à la suite des autres.The devices for scrolling posters include a surface of presentation at which the posters displayed one after the other following the others, stretched between two cylinders each arranged on the side and across the presentation area and on which said posters wrap. At least one of the two cylinders and generally both are rotated using a motor. Steering means are provided for controlling the rotation of the cylinders and their direction of rotation so that said posters mark a downtime at the surface of presentation. Thus, the posters stored on a first cylinder scroll and wind on the second cylinder, each poster stopping at level of the presentation surface. As soon as they are stored on the second cylinder, the direction of travel is reversed so that they roll up at the first cylinder and so on. The scrolling of the posters is programmed according to the number of posters, the control means reversing the direction of rotation of the cylinders after n stops or n translations, n corresponding the number of posters arranged one after the other.

Les dispositifs de l'art antérieur ne donnent pas pleinement satisfaction, notamment en cas d' interruption du fonctionnement. En effet, au redémarrage, les moyens de pilotage ne savent plus après combien d'arrêts ils doivent inverser le sens de rotation des cylindres si bien qu'il est nécessaire de faire intervenir un opérateur afin de régler le défilement des affiches.The devices of the prior art are not fully satisfactory, especially in the event of an interruption in operation. Indeed, on restart, the means of piloting do not know any more after how many stops they must reverse the direction of rotation of the cylinders so that it is necessary to involve an operator to adjust the scrolling of the posters.

Par ailleurs, les dispositifs existants n'offrent pas la possibilité de faire défiler trois affiches sur une série de six une première semaine et de faire défiler les trois autres la semaine suivante.Furthermore, the existing devices do not offer the possibility of scrolling three posters out of a series of six a first week and to scroll through three more the following week.

On connaít également un dispositif décrit dans le document FR-2.647.935 qui comprend des capteurs optiques susceptibles de détecter des pastilles opaques disposées sur une bande transparente susceptible de défiler sur laquelle sont apposés des messages. Selon ce document, des pastilles sont disposées sur une première piste et associées à un premier capteur pour indiquer l'arrêt du défilement au droit de chaque message, une pastille est disposée sur une deuxième piste et associée à un deuxième capteur pour indiquer l'inversement du sens de défilement à une première extrémité et une autre pastille est disposée sur une troisième piste et associée à un troisième capteur pour l'inversement du sens de défilement à l'autre extrémité. Selon ce document, on note que les trois capteurs sont disposés juxtaposés d'un même côté de la bande si bien qu'il n'est pas aisé d'identifier la position relative des trois pistes ce qui constitue une source d'erreur pour la mise en place des pastilles.We also know a device described in document FR-2,647,935 which includes optical sensors capable of detecting opaque patches arranged on a transparent strip capable of running on which are affixed messages. According to this document, pellets are placed on a first track and associated with a first sensor to indicate the stopping of the scroll to the right of each message, a sticker is placed on a second track and associated with a second sensor to indicate the reversal of the direction of travel at one end and another pad is placed on a third track and associated with a third sensor for reversing the direction of travel at the other end. According to this document, we note that the three sensors are placed juxtaposed on the same side of the strip so that it is not not easy to identify the relative position of the three tracks which constitutes a source of error for the installation of the pellets.

Cet agencement contribue également à augmenter l'emprise du support des capteurs et des pistes pour les pastilles sur la bande de défilement. Cette emprise réduit sensiblement la largeur de la surface disponible pour les messages.This arrangement also contributes to increasing the grip of the support of the sensors and tracks for the pads on the scroll strip. This footprint significantly reduces the width of the surface available for messages.

Par ailleurs, le nombre de capteurs, trois, contribue à augmenter le prix du dispositif.In addition, the number of sensors, three, contributes to increasing the price of the device.

Enfin, les capteurs optiques ne peuvent pas fonctionner dans un environnement très lumineux, nécessaire pour éclairer des affiches publicitaires. Finally, optical sensors cannot operate in an environment very bright, necessary to light up advertising posters.

Aussi, la présente invention vise à pallier les inconvénients de l'art antérieur en proposant un dispositif de contrôle du défilement d'affiches déroulantes de conception simple, assurant l'inversion du sens de défilement de manière sûre, notamment après une interruption du fonctionnement, et permettant d'optimiser le nombre de capteurs et la disposition desdits capteurs.Also, the present invention aims to overcome the drawbacks of the prior art by offering a device for controlling the scrolling of scrolling posters of simple design, safely reversing the direction of travel, especially after an interruption of operation, and allowing to optimize the number of sensors and the arrangement of said sensors.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif de contrôle du défilement d'affiches reliées entre elles et disposées les unes à la suite des autres, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend d'une part deux capteurs disposés chacun au niveau des bords latéraux de la série d'affiches et susceptibles de détecter des repères, et d'autre part au moins un premier repère disposé au niveau d'un bord latéral de la première et de la dernière des affiches à montrer afin d'inverser le sens de défilement desdites affiches et des deuxièmes repères disposés au niveau de l'autre bord latéral des affiches intercalaires.To this end, the subject of the invention is a device for controlling the scrolling posters linked together and arranged one after the other, characterized in that it comprises on the one hand two sensors each arranged at the level of the side edges of the poster series and likely to detect marks, and on the other hand at least a first mark arranged at an edge side of the first and last of the posters to be displayed in order to reverse the direction of scrolling of said posters and of second markers arranged at level of the other lateral edge of the intermediate posters.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages ressortiront de la description qui va suivre de l'invention, description donnée à titre d'exemple uniquement, en regard des dessins annexés sur lesquels:

  • la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'un dispositif de présentation d'affiches dites déroulantes,
  • la figure 2 est une vue en élévation du dispositif de contrôle du défilement d'affiches selon l'invention, et
  • la figure 3 est une vue en élévation des affiches équipées de moyens de repérage selon l'invention.
Other characteristics and advantages will emerge from the description which follows of the invention, description given by way of example only, with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a device for presenting so-called scrolling posters,
  • FIG. 2 is an elevation view of the device for controlling the scrolling of posters according to the invention, and
  • Figure 3 is an elevational view of the posters equipped with locating means according to the invention.

Sur la figure 1, on a représenté en perspective un panneau 10 de présentation d'affiches dites déroulantes. Ce dernier comprend un habillage 12 en trait mixte sous forme d'un capotage, avec un socle pour sa liaison au sol selon l'exemple représenté, et un dispositif 14 de maintien et de défilement d'affiches en trait fort disposé à l'intérieur du capotage et représenté en détail sur la figure 2. L'habillage 12 du panneau comprend une ouverture 16 fermée ou non par une paroi transparente, appelée surface de présentation, permettant de visualiser les affiches. Il peut prendre différentes formes et n'est pas plus détaillé car n'étant l'objet principal de la présente demande.In Figure 1, there is shown in perspective a presentation panel 10 of so-called scrolling posters. The latter includes a covering 12 in phantom in the form of a cowling, with a base for its connection to the ground according to the example shown, and a device 14 for holding and scrolling posters in a line strongly disposed inside the cowling and shown in detail in FIG. 2. The covering 12 of the panel comprises an opening 16 closed or not closed by a transparent wall, called presentation surface, allowing to visualize the posters. It can take different forms and is not more detailed because is not the main subject of this request.

Le dispositif 14 de maintien et de défilement permet de supporter une série de n affiches 18.1, 18.2, 18.3,.. 18.i,..., 18.n, disposées les unes à la suite des autres et reliées entre elles le long de leurs bords adjacents 20, comme illustré sur la figure 3. La liaison entre affiches peut être réalisée par tout moyen approprié, notamment à l'aide d'une bande autocollante repositionnable par exemple, et n'est pas plus détaillée car n'étant pas l'objet principal de l'invention.The holding and scrolling device 14 makes it possible to support a series of n posters 18.1, 18.2, 18.3, .. 18.i, ..., 18.n, arranged one after the other and interconnected along their adjacent edges 20, as illustrated in the Figure 3. The connection between posters can be achieved by any appropriate means, in particular using a repositionable adhesive strip for example, and is not more detailed since it is not the main object of the invention.

Le dispositif 14 de maintien et de défilement comprend un cadre 22 avec au niveau de deux côtés parallèles, deux cylindres 24 et 26, chacun relié, directement ou non, à l'un des bords libres de la série d'affiches (parallèles aux bords adjacents 20), le bord libre 28.1 de la série d'affiches étant relié au cylindre 24 et le bord libre opposé 28.2 étant relié au cylindre 26.The device 14 for holding and scrolling comprises a frame 22 with at level of two parallel sides, two cylinders 24 and 26, each connected, directly or not, at one of the free edges of the poster series (parallel to the adjacent edges 20), the free edge 28.1 of the series of posters being connected to the cylinder 24 and the opposite free edge 28.2 being connected to cylinder 26.

Les affiches 18 sont susceptibles de s'enrouler autour des cylindres 24 et 26, ces derniers étant disposés de part et d'autre de la surface de présentation 16 afin qu'une partie de la série d'affiches soit disposée au droit de ladite surface 16.The posters 18 are capable of being wound around the cylinders 24 and 26, the latter being arranged on either side of the presentation surface 16 so that part of the series of posters is placed in front of the said surface 16.

Des moyens 30 sont prévus pour entraíner en rotation au moins l'un des deux cylindres 24 et 26 afin d'assurer le défilement des affiches 18. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré et illustré sur la figure 2, chaque cylindre 24 ou 26 comprend des moyens 30 d'entraínement en rotation comportant chacun une motorisation et des moyens d'accouplement sous forme par exemple d'une courroie.Means 30 are provided for driving in rotation at least one of the two cylinders 24 and 26 in order to ensure the scrolling of the posters 18. According to one mode preferred embodiment and illustrated in Figure 2, each cylinder 24 or 26 comprises means 30 for rotating drive each comprising a motorization and coupling means in the form for example of a belt.

Ces moyens 30 sont gérés par des moyens 32 de pilotage qui déterminent le sens de rotation de chaque cylindre 24, 26 ainsi que le déclenchement et l'arrêt du ou des mouvements de rotation afin que les affiches 18 défilent et marquent un temps d'arrêt au droit de la surface de présentation 16. These means 30 are managed by steering means 32 which determine the direction of rotation of each cylinder 24, 26 as well as the triggering and stopping of the or rotational movements so that the posters 18 scroll and mark a downtime in front of the presentation area 16.

Avantageusement, le dispositif comprend des moyens de tension de la série d'affiches entre les deux cylindres 24 et 26. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, seul un cylindre est entraíné en rotation. En variante, les deux moteurs sont entraínés en rotation, l'un étant ralenti afin de freiner le défilement des affiches.Advantageously, the device comprises tensioning means of the series posters between the two cylinders 24 and 26. According to one embodiment preferred, only one cylinder is rotated. Alternatively, the two motors are rotated, one being slowed down to slow the movement of posters.

Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, le dispositif 14 de maintien et de défilement comprend des moyens de repérage pour identifier les affiches 18.1 et 18.n, dites terminales, disposées à chaque extrémité de la série d'affiches et susceptibles de renseigner les moyens 32 de pilotage afin d'inverser le sens de rotation des cylindres lorsque les affiches 18.1 et 18.n sont disposées au droit de la surface de présentation 16.According to a characteristic of the invention, the device 14 for holding and scrolling comprises locating means for identifying the posters 18.1 and 18.n, called terminals, arranged at each end of the series of posters and likely to inform the steering means 32 in order to reverse the direction of rotation of the cylinders when the posters 18.1 and 18.n are placed in line with the presentation surface 16.

Les moyens de repérage comprennent d'une part un capteur 34 fixe, et d'autre part, au moins un repère 36 susceptible d'être détecté par le capteur 34, disposé au niveau de chaque affiche terminale 18.1 ou 18.n. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le capteur est du type inductif et les repères se présentent chacun sous la forme d'une pastille métallique, de préférence en aluminium, disposée sur les affiches terminales. Bien entendu, on pourrait imaginer d'autres couples tel que par exemple un capteur optique et une marque sur chaque affiche terminale.The locating means comprise on the one hand a fixed sensor 34, and on the other share, at least one mark 36 capable of being detected by the sensor 34, placed at the level of each terminal poster 18.1 or 18.n. According to a mode of preferred embodiment, the sensor is of the inductive type and the pins appear each in the form of a metal pellet, preferably aluminum, displayed on the terminal posters. Of course, one could imagine other couples such as for example an optical sensor and a mark on each poster terminal.

Cet agencement permet de détecter les affiches terminales et d'inverser le sens de défilement ou le sens de rotation des cylindres au moment adéquat.This arrangement makes it possible to detect the terminal posters and to reverse the direction or the direction of rotation of the cylinders at the appropriate time.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les affiches terminales comprennent chacune un premier repère 36.1 et les affiches intercalaires, disposées entre les deux affiches terminales, comprennent chacune un second repère 36.2. Ainsi, lorsque le capteur 34 détecte un repère 36.1 du premier type, il commande par l'intermédiaire des moyens 32 de pilotage, l'arrêt momentané du défilement des affiches et l' inversement du sens de rotation du ou des cylindres 24, 26. Lorsque le capteur 34 détecte un repère 36.2 du second type, il commande simplement l'arrêt momentané du défilement des affiches sans inverser le sens.According to another characteristic of the invention, the terminal posters each include a first reference 36.1 and the intermediate posters, arranged between the two terminal posters, each comprising a second reference 36.2. Thus, when the sensor 34 detects a mark 36.1 of the first type, it controls via the piloting means 32, stopping momentary scrolling of the posters and reversing the direction of rotation of the or cylinders 24, 26. When the sensor 34 detects a mark 36.2 of the second type, it simply controls the temporary scrolling of the posters without reversing the meaning.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, les premiers repères 36.1 sont disposés au niveau d'un premier bord latéral 38.1 alors que les seconds repères 36.2 sont disposés au niveau de l'autre bord latéral 38.2. Dans ce cas, un premier capteur 34.1 est disposé au droit du premier bord latéral 38.1 afin de détecter les premiers repères 36.1 et un second capteur 34.2 est disposé au droit du second bord latéral 38.2 afin de détecter les seconds repères 36.2.According to a preferred embodiment, the first references 36.1 are arranged at the level of a first lateral edge 38.1 while the second marks 36.2 are arranged at the other side edge 38.2. In this case, a first sensor 34.1 is positioned to the right of the first lateral edge 38.1 in order to detect the first marks 36.1 and a second sensor 34.2 is arranged in line with the second lateral edge 38.2 in order to detect the second marks 36.2.

Les capteurs 34.1 et 34.2 ainsi que les repères 36.1 et 36.2 sont disposés de manière adéquate pour que les affiches marquent un temps d'arrêt au droit de la surface de présentation 16.The sensors 34.1 and 34.2 as well as the marks 36.1 and 36.2 are arranged adequately so that the posters mark a pause in the right of the presentation area 16.

Cet agencement permet de piloter de manière simple et efficace le défilement des affiches, notamment d'arrêter le défilement des affiches lorsque qu'un repère 36.1 ou 36.2 est disposé au droit du capteur 34.1 ou 34.2 et d'inverser le sens de défilement lorsqu'un repère 36.1 est disposé au droit du capteur 34.1.This arrangement makes it possible to control the scrolling in a simple and efficient manner. posters, including stopping the scrolling of posters when a mark 36.1 or 36.2 is arranged in line with sensor 34.1 or 34.2 and reverse the direction of travel when a marker 36.1 is placed in line with the sensor 34.1.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, des bandes 40 dites d'amorce sont prévues pour relier les affiches terminales aux cylindres respectifs. Ces bandes d'amorce comprennent des repères 36.3 d'un troisième type qui permettent au(x) capteur(s) 34 de détecter la présence d'une bande d'amorce 40. Avantageusement, les repères 36.3 se présentent pour chaque bande d'amorce 40 sous la forme de deux repères, de préférence deux bandes allongées, disposés au niveau de chaque bord latéral 38.1 et 38.2. Ainsi, lorsque les capteurs 34.1 et 34.2 détectent au même moment deux repères 36.3, ils commandent l'inversement du sens de rotation sans forcément marquer un temps d'arrêt et ignorent le premier passage d'un premier repère 36.1. Cet agencement est plus particulièrement avantageux lorsque l'interruption du fonctionnement intervient alors qu'une affiche terminale est disposée au droit de la surface de représentation. Dans ce cas, le sens du défilement au redémarrage n'a pas d'importance. En effet, même si le sens correspond au défilement en direction de la bande d'amorce, les capteurs 34 détectent les repères 36.3 et commandent l'inversion du sens de défilement.According to another characteristic of the invention, so-called leader strips 40 are provided to connect the terminal posters to the respective cylinders. These leader strips include markers 36.3 of a third type which allow the sensor (s) 34 to detect the presence of a strip Advantageously, the references 36.3 appear for each primer strip 40 in the form of two marks, preferably two strips elongated, arranged at each lateral edge 38.1 and 38.2. So when the sensors 34.1 and 34.2 detect at the same time two marks 36.3, they control the reversal of the direction of rotation without necessarily marking a time stop and ignore the first pass of a first marker 36.1. This arrangement is more particularly advantageous when the interruption of operation intervenes while a terminal poster is placed at the right of the surface of representation. In this case, the direction of scrolling on restart has not important. Indeed, even if the direction corresponds to the scrolling towards of the leader strip, the sensors 34 detect the marks 36.3 and control the reversal of the scrolling direction.

Ainsi, il n'est plus nécessaire de mémoriser le sens de défilement et/ou l'affiche disposée au droit de la surface de présentation au moment de l' interruption du fonctionnement. En effet, peu importe le sens de défilement au moment du redémarrage, les moyens de repérage permettr ont d'identifier toujours l'une des affiches terminales, dans le cas le plus défavorable l'une des bandes d'amorce, et d'inverser le sens de défilement.Thus, it is no longer necessary to memorize the scrolling direction and / or the poster placed at the right of the presentation surface at the time of the interruption of the operation. Indeed, it does not matter the direction of scrolling at the time of restart, the locating means will always identify one terminal posters, in the worst case one of the bands start, and reverse the direction of travel.

Le dispositif de l'invention permet également de programmer le défilement d'une partie des affiches de la série. Ainsi, il suffit de disposer un premier repère 36.1 au niveau de la première et de la dernière des affiches que l'on souhaite montrer et éventuellement des seconds repères 36.2 au niveau des affiches intercalaires. Dès que le ou les capteurs détectent un repère 36.1, ils commandent l'inversement du sens du défilement.The device of the invention also makes it possible to program the scrolling of a part of the posters of the series. Thus, it suffices to have a first mark 36.1 at the level of the first and the last of the posters that we want to show and possibly second marks 36.2 at the level of the intermediate posters. As soon as the sensor (s) detect a mark 36.1, they control reversing the direction of scrolling.

Bien entendu, l' invention n'est évidemment pas limitée au mode de réalisation représenté et décrit ci-dessus, mais en couvre au contraire toutes les variantes, notamment en ce qui concerne les dimensions, les formes et les matériaux des différents éléments.Of course, the invention is obviously not limited to the embodiment represented and described above, but on the contrary covers all the variants thereof, especially with regard to the dimensions, shapes and materials of different elements.
