Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif d'affichage lumineux d'une enseigne du type « double face » ainsi qu'à un ensemble d'affichage lumineux comportant un tel dispositif.The present invention relates to a luminous display device of a "double-sided" type sign and to a luminous display assembly comprising such a device.

Par « double face », on entend une enseigne comportant au moins deux affichages lumineux possédant une symétrie axiale.By "double face" is meant a sign having at least two light displays having axial symmetry.

Une enseigne double face connue de l'état de la technique, notamment du document FR 2 890 775 , comporte un système d'affichage lumineux comprenant au moins une plaque de support dont chacune des faces est équipée d'un ensemble de diodes électroluminescentes (ci-après LEDs).A double-sided sign known from the state of the art, including the document FR 2,890,775 , comprises a light display system comprising at least one support plate each of whose faces is equipped with a set of light-emitting diodes (hereinafter LEDs).

Les moyens d'alimentation électrique des LEDs, en particulier les câbles d'alimentation, sont fixés sur un cadre de l'enseigne et disposés à l'intérieur d'un capotage de protection des panneaux lumineux, le capotage étant transparent dans le domaine du visible.The power supply means of the LEDs, in particular the power supply cables, are fixed on a frame of the sign and arranged inside a protective cowling of the light panels, the cowling being transparent in the field of visible.

Les câbles d'alimentation des LEDs demeurent donc visibles extérieurement dans un tel système d'affichage lumineux, ce qui nuit à l'esthétique générale de l'enseigne.LED power cables are therefore visible externally in such a light display system, which affects the overall aesthetics of the sign.

La présente invention vise à remédier à l'inconvénient précité et concerne un dispositif d'affichage lumineux d'une enseigne comportant :

  • une première et une seconde plaque de support présentant chacune une première face et une seconde face opposée,
  • une pluralité de panneaux lumineux, de préférence à diodes électroluminescentes, comportant au moins un premier et au moins un second panneau lumineux montés respectivement sur la première face des première et seconde plaques,
    caractérisé en ce que les secondes faces des première et seconde plaques sont montées fixes entre elles de sorte à délimiter un interstice.
The present invention aims to remedy the aforementioned drawback and concerns a luminous display device of a sign comprising:
  • a first and a second support plate each having a first face and a second opposite face,
  • a plurality of light panels, preferably light-emitting diodes, comprising at least a first and at least a second light panel respectively mounted on the first face of the first and second plates,
    characterized in that the second faces of the first and second plates are fixedly fixed together to define a gap.

La présence d'un tel interstice permet de dissimuler les moyens d'alimentation des panneaux lumineux, en particulier les câbles d'alimentation, tout en conservant une compacité du dispositif.The presence of such a gap makes it possible to conceal the power supply means of the light panels, in particular the power supply cables, while maintaining a compactness of the device.

Il est à noter que les panneaux lumineux sont de préférence à LEDs. Les panneaux lumineux peuvent également être à tubes néons. Cependant, les tubes néons sont généralement volumineux, desservant par là-même la compacité du dispositif.It should be noted that the luminous panels are preferably LEDs. The light panels can also be neon tubes. However, the neon tubes are generally bulky, thereby serving the compactness of the device.

Dans un mode de réalisation, les première et seconde plaques sont sensiblement identiques.In one embodiment, the first and second plates are substantially identical.

Ainsi, un tel dispositif permet d'obtenir un support à symétrie axiale des panneaux lumineux.Thus, such a device makes it possible to obtain a support with axial symmetry of the light panels.

Préférentiellement, la première face et la seconde face de chaque plaque présentent sensiblement une forme en croix de Saint-Georges.Preferably, the first face and the second face of each plate substantially have a cross shape of St. George.

Ainsi, une telle forme des plaques permet d'obtenir un support adapté pour une enseigne de pharmacie.Thus, such a shape of the plates makes it possible to obtain a support adapted for a pharmacy sign.

Selon un mode de réalisation, chaque plaque est munie d'une pluralité d'orifices traversant, chaque orifice traversant libérant un passage entre l'interstice et le panneau lumineux correspondant.According to one embodiment, each plate is provided with a plurality of through orifices, each through orifice releasing a passage between the gap and the corresponding light panel.

Ainsi, les passages libérés entre l'interstice et les panneaux lumineux permettent d'y engager les câbles d'alimentation des panneaux lumineux afin de les dissimuler dans l'interstice.Thus, the passages released between the gap and the light panels allow to engage the power cables of the light panels to conceal them in the gap.

Selon une forme d'exécution, chaque plaque est munie d'une platine destinée à être montée en applique.According to one embodiment, each plate is provided with a plate intended to be mounted as a surface.

Ainsi, de telles plaques permettent une fixation du dispositif sur une façade.Thus, such plates allow attachment of the device on a facade.

Selon un mode de réalisation, les premier et second panneaux lumineux sont sensiblement identiques.According to one embodiment, the first and second light panels are substantially identical.

Ainsi, un tel dispositif permet d'obtenir une enseigne double face.Thus, such a device provides a double-sided sign.

Préférentiellement, la pluralité de panneaux lumineux délimite sensiblement une croix de Saint-Georges.Preferably, the plurality of light panels substantially delimits a St. George's cross.

Ainsi, de tels panneaux lumineux sont adaptés pour obtenir une enseigne de pharmacie.Thus, such light panels are adapted to obtain a pharmacy sign.

Avantageusement, le dispositif comporte un cadre enjoliveur disposé entre les première et seconde plaques et s'étendant sur le pourtour desdites plaques de sorte à délimiter un volume interne de l'interstice accessible depuis l'extérieur du cadre.Advantageously, the device comprises a trim frame disposed between the first and second plates and extending around the periphery of said plates so as to delimit an internal volume of the gap accessible from outside the frame.

Ainsi, un tel cadre, outre sa fonction d'enjoliver le dispositif, permet de délimiter une enceinte pour l'interstice afin de dissimuler les câbles d'alimentation visibles latéralement entre les première et seconde plaques.Thus, such a frame, in addition to its function of embellishing the device, allows delimiting an enclosure for the gap in order to conceal the visible power cables laterally between the first and second plates.

Avantageusement, le cadre enjoliveur est formé de plusieurs éléments de cadre s'emboîtant mutuellement.Advantageously, the hubcap frame is formed of several frame elements interlocking with each other.

De tels éléments de cadre permettent une fixation aisée sur le pourtour des première et seconde plaques.Such frame members allow easy attachment to the periphery of the first and second plates.

Préférentiellement, le cadre enjoliveur est réalisé en matière plastique transparent.Preferably, the hubcap frame is made of transparent plastic material.

La présente invention se rapporte également à un ensemble d'affichage lumineux d'une enseigne caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte:

  • un dispositif conforme à l'invention,
  • un bloc d'alimentation de la pluralité de panneaux lumineux disposé hors de l'interstice, et relié à ladite pluralité de panneaux lumineux par au moins un câble d'alimentation,
    l'interstice étant configuré pour recevoir chaque câble d'alimentation.
The present invention also relates to a luminous display assembly of a sign, characterized in that it comprises:
  • a device according to the invention,
  • a power supply of the plurality of light panels arranged outside the gap, and connected to said plurality of light panels by at least one power cable,
    the gap being configured to receive each power cable.

Avantageusement, l'interstice présente une distance d'espacement entre les secondes faces des première et seconde plaques inférieure ou égale au triple du diamètre de chaque câble d'alimentation.Advantageously, the gap has a spacing distance between the second faces of the first and second plates less than or equal to three times the diameter of each power cable.

Une telle distance d'espacement permet de dissimuler aisément chaque câble d'alimentation, tout en conservant une compacité du dispositif.Such spacing distance can easily hide each power cable, while maintaining compactness of the device.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages apparaîtront dans la description qui va suivre d'un mode de réalisation d'un dispositif selon l'invention, donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • the figure 6 is an exploded view of the hubcap frame of the device illustrated in FIG. figure 5 .

Le dispositif illustré aux figures 1 à 6 comporte une première plaque 1 de support et une seconde plaque 2 de support sensiblement identiques. Chaque plaque 1, 2 comprend une première face 10, 20 et une seconde face opposée 11, 21 présentant sensiblement une forme en croix de Saint-Georges. Par croix « Saint-Georges », on entend une croix présentant sensiblement la forme du signe « + ».The device illustrated in Figures 1 to 6 comprises a first support plate 1 and a second substantially identical support plate 2. Each plate 1, 2 comprises a first face 10, 20 and a second opposite face 11, 21 having substantially a cross shape of St. George. By cross "St. George" means a cross having substantially the shape of the sign "+".

Le dispositif comporte en outre cinq panneaux lumineux 3 identiques à LEDs 4, sensiblement carrés, et délimitant sensiblement une croix de Saint-Georges.The device further comprises five light panels 3 identical to LEDs 4, substantially square, and substantially delimiting a Saint-Georges cross.

Les panneaux lumineux 3 sont montés fixes sur la première face 10, 20 des première et seconde plaques 1, 2 aux moyens de vis d'assemblage 30.The light panels 3 are fixedly mounted on the first face 10, 20 of the first and second plates 1, 2 to the assembly screw means 30.

Selon des variantes d'exécution non représentées, les panneaux lumineux 3 peuvent également être montés fixes sur la première face 10, 20 des première et seconde plaques 1, 2 par collage ou encore par rivetage.According to alternative embodiments not shown, the light panels 3 can also be fixedly mounted on the first face 10, 20 of the first and second plates 1, 2 by gluing or by riveting.

Par ailleurs, les LEDs 4 de chaque panneau lumineux 3 sont encapsulées dans un bloc résine (non représenté) afin d'assurer leur résistance mécanique et leur étanchéité.Furthermore, the LEDs 4 of each light panel 3 are encapsulated in a resin block (not shown) to ensure their mechanical strength and their sealing.

Les secondes faces 11, 21 des première et seconde plaques 1, 2 sont montées fixes entre elles de sorte à s'étendre sensiblement parallèlement entre elles et à délimiter un interstice 5.The second faces 11, 21 of the first and second plates 1, 2 are mounted fixed together so as to extend substantially parallel to each other and to delimit a gap 5.

A cet effet, les première et seconde plaques 1, 2 sont fixées entre elles aux moyens de plusieurs paires de vis de fixation 100, chaque paire de vis de fixation 100 étant vissée dans une entretoise 101 intercalée entre les première et seconde plaques 1, 2. A cet effet, une pluralité d'orifices de fixation 103 traversant est ménagée dans chaque plaque 1, 2 afin de recevoir les vis de fixation 100. L'interstice 5 présente une distance d'espacement entre les secondes faces 11, 21 des première et seconde plaques 1, 2 égale à la longueur de l'entretoise 101.For this purpose, the first and second plates 1, 2 are fixed together by means of several pairs of fixing screws 100, each pair of fixing screws 100 being screwed into a spacer 101 interposed between the first and second plates 1, 2 For this purpose, a plurality of through-holes 103 are provided in each plate 1, 2 in order to receive the fixing screws 100. The gap 5 has a spacing distance between the second faces 11, 21 of the first and second plates 1, 2 equal to the length of the spacer 101.

Selon des variantes d'exécutions non représentées, les première et seconde plaques 1, 2 peuvent également être fixées entre elles aux moyens de vis de fixation ou de rivets dont les tiges respectives déterminent la distance d'espacement entre les première et seconde plaques 1, 2.According to variants of embodiments not shown, the first and second plates 1, 2 can also be fixed to each other by means of fixing screws or rivets whose respective rods determine the spacing distance between the first and second plates 1, 2.

Les LEDs 4 sont alimentées électriquement par un bloc d'alimentation (non représenté) disposé hors de l'interstice 5. Les LEDs sont reliés au bloc d'alimentation par des câbles d'alimentation (non représentés).The LEDs 4 are electrically powered by a power supply unit (not shown) disposed outside the gap 5. The LEDs are connected to the power supply unit by power cables (not shown).

L'interstice 5 est conformé pour recevoir les câbles d'alimentation. A cet effet, l'interstice 5 présente de préférence une distance d'espacement entre les secondes faces 11, 21 des première et seconde plaques 1, 2 inférieure ou égale au triple du diamètre des câbles d'alimentation.The gap 5 is shaped to receive the power cables. For this purpose, the gap 5 preferably has a spacing distance between the second faces 11, 21 of the first and second plates 1, 2 less than or equal to triple the diameter of the power cables.

Comme illustré à la figure 4, chaque plaque 1, 2 est munie d'une pluralité d'orifices traversant 102, chaque orifice traversant 102 libérant un passage entre l'interstice 5 et le panneau lumineux 3 correspondant. De plus, chaque orifice traversant 102 est conformé pour recevoir un câble d'alimentation. La pluralité d'orifices traversant 102 est répartie sur chaque plaque 1, 2 de sorte à libérer quatre passages entre l'interstice 5 et un panneau lumineux 3.As illustrated in figure 4 each plate 1, 2 is provided with a plurality of through orifices 102, each through orifice 102 releasing a passage between the gap 5 and the corresponding light panel 3. In addition, each through hole 102 is shaped to receive a power cable. The plurality of through orifices 102 is distributed on each plate 1, 2 so as to release four passages between the gap 5 and a light panel 3.

En outre, chaque plaque 1, 2 est munie d'une platine 6, sensiblement rectangulaire, et destinée à être montée en applique sur une façade (non représentée).In addition, each plate 1, 2 is provided with a plate 6, substantially rectangular, and intended to be mounted on a wall (not shown).

Comme illustré à la figure 5, le dispositif comporte un cadre 7 enjoliveur sensiblement en forme de croix Saint-Georges. Le cadre 7 est disposé entre les première et seconde plaques 1, 2 et s'étend sur le pourtour desdites plaques 1, 2 de sorte à délimiter un volume interne de l'interstice 5.As illustrated in figure 5 , the device comprises a frame 7 hubcap substantially cross-shaped St. George. The frame 7 is disposed between the first and second plates 1, 2 and extends around the periphery of said plates 1, 2 so as to delimit an internal volume of the gap 5.

A cet effet, le cadre 7 est formé de plusieurs éléments de cadre 70 présentant, deux à deux, des extrémités de liaison de forme complémentaire de sorte à s'emboîter mutuellement. Par ailleurs, chaque élément de cadre 70 est muni d'au moins un orifice 700 conformé pour recevoir une entretoise 101 intercalée entre les première et seconde plaques 1, 2. Ainsi, chaque élément de cadre 70 est solidarisé auxdites plaques 1, 2 lorsque chaque paire de vis de fixation 100 des plaques 1, 2 est vissée dans l'entretoise 101 correspondante.For this purpose, the frame 7 is formed of a plurality of frame members 70 having, in pairs, complementary shaped connection ends so as to interlock each other. Furthermore, each frame member 70 is provided with at least one orifice 700 shaped to receive a spacer 101 interposed between the first and second plates 1, 2. Thus, each frame member 70 is secured to said plates 1, 2 when each pair of fixing screws 100 of the plates 1, 2 is screwed into the corresponding spacer 101.

De plus, le cadre 7 présente un bord ouvert 71 afin de libérer un passage pour les câbles d'alimentation.In addition, the frame 7 has an open edge 71 to release a passage for the power cables.

Bien entendu, le mode de réalisation de l'invention décrit ci-dessus ne présente aucun caractère limitatif. Des détails et améliorations peuvent y être apportés dans d'autres variantes d'exécution sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention.Of course, the embodiment of the invention described above is not limiting in nature. Details and improvements can be made in other embodiments without departing from the scope of the invention.
