Abstract

1,047,668. Monogrammic signs. W. R. AIKEN. May 6, 1965 [June 1, 1964], No. 19145/65. Heading G5C. A monogrammic sign comprises rows and columns of units U each including a vane 14 movable from a horizontal to an inclined position by applying electric potential to side electrodes 20a, 20b of all the units in the associated row, and thence to a substantially vertical, exposed position by applying potential to top electrodes 24 of the units in the associated column. A transparent viewing window may be of conductive material or have a conductive edging 44 for holding the vane in exposed position or repelling it to concealed position. As shown, control means for activating selected units includes punched tape movable between (a) conductive bars and terminals resiliently urged into contact therewith (Fig. 4, not shown), or (b) light-emitting blocks and photo-sensitive cells (Fig. 7, not shown). The vane 14 may be of metal foil or regenerated cellulose.
