FR2580108A1 - Module for light display panels - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to a light module. The light module having complementary male and female impressions on the periphery and the rear of its banding serving as a self supporting framework, is assembled with other identical modules in order thus to form very large surfaces of any shapes. Moreover, each module supplies the next one with electrical current. The mounting and dismantling of the modules are very easy. The invention applies to advertising by display of any product and in all exhibitions or business fairs requiring assembly and dismantling of the hardware used.

Description

 The present invention relates to a module representing a light board, allowing through an assembly of several modules, to build large flat surfaces or geometric shapes, without dimensional limitation, moreover, disassembly is as simple as assembly .

The methods known at this time for the light display are produced in a single element, more or less large. The cost of large paintings is very high. Da set up of these display boards is very expensive and definitive because of their complexity-mounting,
The invention aims to remedy these drawbacks; on the one hand, the modules can be manufactured in Sevie, the cost price would be much lower, on the other hand, the modules being assembled and disassembled on demand, take up very little space when. they are not used.

 During their installation, after an easy and quick assembly they can exceed by their size-the largest bulletin boards realized to date, and once their assignment filled, they are dismantled quickly to be used in another place , with. possibly other films or posters.

 To this end, the invention consists of a molded plastic frame, on the whole of the belt, this frame forms a self-supporting chassis. On a length and a width of this frame, a male tail is profiled whereas on the other length and the other width is the female counterpart of this profile. The same set of male and female imprints is on the back of the chassis, so that you can make angles during assembly.

 Four corner electrical sockets incorporated in the plastic chassis allow powering up a module which can thus serve as a relay for eleven other modules.

 The accompanying drawings give a non-limiting example of embodiment of the invention.

 Figure 1 shows the chassis of the top view mode, a male dovetail profile is seen in plan and in section. on the left side and rear of the chassis. The female profile is seen in section on the right side and rear of the chassis.

 Figure 2 shows the left side of the chassis. The male molding is seen in plan as well as in section at the top. The female groove is seen in section at the bottom.

Figure 3 shows the right side of the chassis the female groove - is seen in plan as well as in cutout on the bottom of the chassis, The male profile is seen in section at the top of the chassis
FIG. 4 represents the chassis of the module seen from the front on the display screen side.

 Figure 5 shows the module chassis seen from below. In plan is the groove of the female imprint as in section on the side and the right rear, the two male profiles appear in section on the side and the back left = - che.

 Figure 6 shows the mounted-seen module of ~ cut, male moldings and female grooves appear as described in the previous five-figures.

The two fluorescent lamps on strips-used for lighting. of the poster or film are incorporated in the frame on the right and on the left. The strips block the bottom plate coated with a layer of al-uminium to increase luminescence. A double polycarbonate plate forms the screen and makes it possible to sandwich the film or the poster. Above each side an aluminum profile is used to hold the assembly by clipping onto the chassis thus forming an omogenous module.

 Figure 7 shows the chassis plan view from the rear, male molding on the left female grooves on the right. At each corner an electrical outlet allows you to receive or relay another module with electrical current.

 FIG. 8 represents, by way of example, the mounting of ten modules forming a 4-sided display table.

 It goes without saying that modifications can be made to the embodiment described and shown without departing from the scope of the invention, the principle of which allows very diverse applications.

 Lwinvention finds its applacatien - in- all advertising or artistic fields calling for the disclosure of a product or a work to present them within a short time such as for example an exhibition - or a fair -commercial.
