Description

Dispositif d'affichage graphique télécommandé. Remote controlled graphic display device.

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif d'affichage graphique télécommandé, à usage publicitaire ou autres (information, etc...). The present invention relates to a remote controlled graphic display device, for advertising or other use (information, etc.).

Pare exemple, il est avantageux de pouvoir afficher, en de nombreux endroits d'une même grande ville, un ou plusieurs évènements marquants avant même que la presse les relatant ne soit disponible à la vente dans les kioskes à journaux. La confection, la distribution et le collage d'affiches préparées dans ce but par imprimerie, prennent en général au total trop de temps, surtout si l'évènement marquant s'est produit peu de temps avant l'heure de mise en vente des journaux. Il est courant de faire passer ce genre d'informations par des panneaux lumineux télécommandés sur lesquels le texte s'inscrit au fur et à mesure, dans le but d'être lu à la volée par le public.On s'est en réalité aperçu que ces panneaux lumineux à écrite mobile en défilement étaient très peu lus par le public, car il est en fait très difficile de lire un texte qui bouge si l'on bouge soi-même : il faut que, de l'affiche et de la personne qui la lit, I'un des deux soit statique. Par ailleurs, ces pannneaux lumineux ont pour autre inconvénient de ne pas reproduir-e de dessins, tels que des carricatures, et à fortiori pas de dessins en couleurs. For example, it is advantageous to be able to display, in many places in the same big city, one or more significant events even before the press reporting them is available for sale in newsstands. The making, distribution and pasting of posters prepared for this purpose by printing works, in general take too much time, especially if the significant event occurred shortly before the time of sale of newspapers . It is common to pass this kind of information through remote control light panels on which the text is written gradually, in order to be read on the fly by the public. that these luminous panels with movable written scrolling were very little read by the public, because it is in fact very difficult to read a text which moves if one moves oneself: it is necessary that, of the poster and the person reading it, one of them is static. Furthermore, these light panels have the other drawback of not reproducing drawings, such as caricatures, and a fortiori no color drawings.

L'invention se rapporte à un dispositif d'affichage graphique parfait télécommandé qui ne présente pas les inconvénients des dispositifs de ce type connus jusqu'àlors. Il est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte une station centrale de constitution de l'affiche, de codage et d'émission de celle-ci, et une ou plusieurs stations réceptrices comportant chacune une mémoire-tampon emmagasinant l'information codée reçue, un dispositif de décodage de cette information, et une table traçante comportant une ou plusieurs buses d'encrage et reproduisant l'affiche en correspondance avec l'information reçue et décodée. The invention relates to a perfect remote-controlled graphic display device which does not have the drawbacks of devices of this type known hitherto. It is characterized in that it comprises a central station for constituting the poster, for coding and for transmitting it, and one or more receiving stations each comprising a buffer memory storing the coded information received, a device for decoding this information, and a tracing table comprising one or more inking nozzles and reproducing the poster in correspondence with the information received and decoded.

L'invention sera de toutes façons bien comprise, et d'autres caractéristiques avantageuses apparaîtront, au cours de la description suivante d'un exemple de réalisation, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels
Figure I est une représentation schématique d'ensemble du dispositif de l'invention,
Figure 2 est une vue de profil de la station réceptrice avec table traçante équipant le dispositif de la figure 1.
The invention will in any case be well understood, and other advantageous characteristics will appear, during the following description of an exemplary embodiment, with reference to the appended drawings in which
FIG. I is an overall schematic representation of the device of the invention,
Figure 2 is a side view of the receiving station with a plotter fitted to the device of Figure 1.

En se reportant à la figure 1, le dispositif de l'invention comporte une seule centrale 1 de constitution et d'émission de l'affiche à faire apparaître sur plusieurs centaines, par exemple, de panneaux d'affichage 2 répartis en différents points de la ville. Referring to FIG. 1, the device of the invention comprises a single central unit 1 for constituting and issuing the poster to be displayed on several hundred, for example, display panels 2 distributed at different points of the city.

La centrale 1 comporte un dispositif de constitution de l'affiche 3, qui est par exemple composé d'une caméra lisant soit un dessin fait sur papier, soit une grande photographie, et un dispositif 4 de codage en traits de l'information fournie par la caméra, de stockage de cette information dans une mémoire, puis d'émission, à par exemple 800 implusions par seconde, du message codé sur les lignes 5 du réseau téléphonique, vers chacune des stations réceptrices 6. The control unit 1 comprises a device for constituting the poster 3, which is for example composed of a camera reading either a drawing made on paper, or a large photograph, and a device 4 for coding in lines of the information provided by the camera, storing this information in a memory, then transmitting, for example 800 implusions per second, the coded message on the lines 5 of the telephone network, to each of the receiving stations 6.

Le message codé reçu d'une ligne téléphonique 5 par une des 200 à 500 stations réceptrices 6 est stocké dans une mémoire-tampon 7, elle-même reliée à une interface 8 de décodage des informations extraites de la mémoire 7 et de transformation de ceux-ci en signaux électriques de puissance commandant, par la connexion 9, le fonctionnement d'une table traçante 10 reproduisant, par traçage ou par points, I'affiche désirée. La mémoire tampon est nécessitée entre autres par le fait que le temps de traçage de l'affiche par la table 10 est beaucoup plus long que le temps de traitement de l'information reçue par la station réceptrice 6. The coded message received from a telephone line 5 by one of the 200 to 500 receiving stations 6 is stored in a buffer memory 7, itself connected to an interface 8 for decoding the information extracted from the memory 7 and for transforming those in electrical power signals controlling, by connection 9, the operation of a plotter 10 reproducing, by tracing or by points, the desired poster. The buffer memory is required inter alia by the fact that the time for tracing the poster by the table 10 is much longer than the time for processing the information received by the receiving station 6.

En se reférant également à la figure 2, la station réceptrice 6 comporte tout d'abord un boîtier inférieur Il définissant un "volume technique" comportant, outre la mémoire tampon 7 et l'interface 8, quatre réservoirs 12-15 d'encres de différents couleurs, par exemple noir, rouge, bleu, et jaune, reliés respectivement par quatre pompes 16-19 à quatre buses d'encrage 20-23 portées par un barillet 24. Elle comporte également le panneau d'affichage 2, qui est transparent et qui forme la majeure partie de la face avant d'un grand boîtier plat 25, à l'intérieur duquel on trouve successivement un panneau d'éclairage 26, la table traçante 10, et un dispositif 27 de déroulement, passant derrière le panneau transparent 2, et ré-enroulement d'un film 28 de papier transparent, tel que du papier calque couramment utilisé pour les dessins techniques. Referring also to FIG. 2, the receiving station 6 first of all comprises a lower housing II defining a "technical volume" comprising, in addition to the buffer memory 7 and the interface 8, four reservoirs 12-15 of inks of different colors, for example black, red, blue, and yellow, connected respectively by four pumps 16-19 to four inking nozzles 20-23 carried by a barrel 24. It also includes the display panel 2, which is transparent and which forms the major part of the front face of a large flat housing 25, inside which there is successively a lighting panel 26, the plotter 10, and a device 27 for unwinding, passing behind the transparent panel 2, and rewinding of a film 28 of transparent paper, such as tracing paper commonly used for technical drawings.

La table traçante 10 est commandée, de manière classique pour ce genre de table, par des moteurs pas-à-pas non représentés. Elle comporte, toujours de manière très classique, d'une part une voie horizontale 30 sur laquelle le barillet 24 se déplace conformément aux signaux électriques reçus, ses buses d'encrage 20-23 étant alimentées en encre par les pompes électriques 16-19 conformément également aux signaux reçus par ces pompes, et d'autre part une voie verticale 29 le long de laquelle la réglette horizontale 30 se déplace conformément aux signaux reçus pour reproduire sur le papier transparent 28 le dessin de l'affiche d'origine. The plotter 10 is controlled, conventionally for this kind of table, by stepping motors not shown. It comprises, still very conventionally, on the one hand a horizontal channel 30 on which the barrel 24 moves in accordance with the electrical signals received, its inking nozzles 20-23 being supplied with ink by the electric pumps 16-19 in accordance also to the signals received by these pumps, and on the other hand a vertical path 29 along which the horizontal strip 30 moves in accordance with the signals received to reproduce on the transparent paper 28 the drawing of the original poster.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation qui vient d'être décrit, on utilise un papier 28 qui est transparent du fait que le barillet 24 est placé derrière lui. On pourrait aussi utiliser un papier 28 opaque, mais ceci obligerait à placer le barillet 24 et sa mécanique associée devant l'affiche, ce qui aurait pour inconvénient de masquer une partie de l'affiche aux yeux du public au cours de sa confection. Or, il est avantageux que l'on puisse lire le plus tôt possible ce qui est inscrit sur l'affiche, même si celle-ci n'est pas encore entièrement confectionnée, ce qui permet déjà de diffuser une première information attirant l'attention du public. In the embodiment which has just been described, a paper 28 is used which is transparent because the barrel 24 is placed behind it. One could also use an opaque paper 28, but this would require placing the barrel 24 and its associated mechanics in front of the poster, which would have the disadvantage of masking part of the poster in the eyes of the public during its making. However, it is advantageous to be able to read as soon as possible what is written on the poster, even if it is not yet entirely made up, which already makes it possible to disseminate a first piece of information attracting attention public.

Au lieu d'une table traçante à une voie horizontale 30 et une voie verticale 29, on pourrait aussi utiliser une table à une seule voie horizontale, le papier lui-même se déplaçant dans le sens vertical à la manière d'une imprimante d'ordinateur. Cette solution bien qu'apparemment plus simple, n'est cependant pas préférentielle car elle rend l'affiche non statique pendant sa confection, de sorte qu'elle n'est pas parfaitement et aisément lisible pendant ce temps, et parce que l'on risque de recouvrir d'encre non encore sèche les différents rouleaux servant au guidage du papier.  Instead of a plotter with a horizontal path 30 and a vertical path 29, one could also use a table with a single horizontal path, the paper itself moving in the vertical direction like a printer. computer. This solution, although apparently simpler, is however not preferable because it makes the poster non-static during its preparation, so that it is not perfectly and easily readable during this time, and because risk of covering the different rollers used for guiding the paper with ink that is not yet dry.
