2. Description of the Related Art Recently, various types of advertising devices are provided in places such as subways where many people pass.
Most of such advertising devices and the like generally have a regular hexahedral box approximately the size of a person's height attached to a wall, and the advertising device is mounted on the surface thereof. In addition, an illumination source such as a fluorescent lamp is provided inside the box so that the attached advertising device can easily enter the visual field of people.

[0003] However, such a box for an advertising device merely serves to show the advertising device, and as time passes, it gradually becomes less and less effective for people passing by, and its effect is also reduced. . So recently,
In order to solve such a problem, a facility has been developed in which a function of an advertising board that also shows an advertising device can be performed simultaneously with the role of a reflecting mirror such as a mirror.

FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a decorative article which also serves as a reflector according to the prior art. As shown in Fig. 1, power supply is installed on both sides of the inside of the main body (10) whose front is open.
Illumination sections (25a, 25b) provided with illumination lamps (23a, 23b) to be turned on / off by (20) are formed. Lighting section (25a, 25b)
In front of are provided blocking plates (27a, 27b) for blocking transmission of light. Between both blocking plates (27a, 27b), a reflector layer (30)
And a reflecting mirror (35) having a decorative printing layer (33) applied on the back surface. The decorative print layer (33) is made of a normal luminous paint (luminous
In a high vacuum state, aluminum is vapor-deposited on one surface of the reflecting mirror (35) so that only about 30% of the light is transmitted. To be formed.

[0005] The conventional decorative mirror / reflective article having the above structure operates as follows. When the illumination lamps (23a, 23b) inside the main body (10) are turned off, the illuminance inside the main body becomes relatively lower than that outside the main body, so that light rays radiated from the outside are temporarily sent to the reflecting mirror (35). Irradiated.

At this time, about 70% of the total light rays are reflected by the reflecting material layer (30) applied to the back surface of the reflecting mirror (35), and only about 30% is transmitted through the minute gap into the body. Is done. The transmitted light is secondarily reflected, and the amount of light transmitted to the outside through the minute gap corresponds to 30% of the reflected light. Therefore, the reflectivity becomes about 91% as a whole, and the inside cannot be seen through, so that the effect of the reflector is exhibited. Of course, the amount of the secondarily reflected light should actually be transmitted to the outside due to the influence of scattering and the like, so that the reflectivity is 9%.
Appears more than 1%.

When the illumination lamps (23a, 23b) inside the main body (10) are turned on, the internal illuminance appears higher than the external illuminance. And about 70% of the total light is reflected and about 30%
Is transmitted through the reflecting mirror (35) through the fine gap. The user can recognize the decoration formed on the decorative printing layer (33) by the transmitted light.

Accordingly, the above-mentioned reflecting mirror can function as a reflecting mirror itself when turned off and as a decoration when turned on. However, in order to use a rod-shaped lamp inside, the main body must be formed in a box shape, and there is a limit in reducing the thickness. Therefore, it is difficult to use it as an interior decoration. In addition, since the decorations simply printed on the reflecting mirror or the decorative printing layer are repeatedly displayed, there is a problem that the user easily gets bored.

[0009]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a motion effect when the decoration is viewed as a whole by lighting all or a part of the decoration simultaneously or sequentially. It is an object of the present invention to provide a decoration which is also used as a reflector. Another object of the present invention is to provide an EL device as an illumination device.
Using lights to reduce the overall thickness,
An object of the present invention is to provide a reflector and a decorative article having a moving image decoration effect capable of increasing the decorative beauty.

[0010]

In order to achieve the above objects, the present invention provides a reflector having a moving image decoration effect, which is also provided with a reflector having a predetermined shape. A reflector in which a reflective material layer is formed so that aluminum has a predetermined transmittance by vacuum deposition of aluminum; a reflector which is divided into a predetermined shape on the back surface of the reflector, and which is divided into Has an EL light having a predetermined shape and hue, and emitting light in response to power supply; and a control box for individually supplying power to each of the divided portions of the EL light. It has a configuration including:

The control box supplies power to the divided EL lights sequentially or simultaneously to form a part having a predetermined pattern and hue formed in each part of the EL lights. It can produce an effect as if it moves.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a description will be given of a decorative article that also serves as a reflector having a moving picture decoration effect according to the present invention.

FIG. 2 is a rear perspective view of an embodiment of a decorative article which also serves as a reflector according to the present invention. FIG. 2 shows an embodiment in which the invention of the present application is applied to a picture frame. In the drawing, 50 is a main body, 55 is a reflecting mirror provided on the back of the main body (50), 60 is
On the back surface of the reflecting mirror (50), a reflecting material layer 65 formed by evaporating aluminum or the like so that light beams can pass at a predetermined rate, a light emitting layer 65 when power is supplied, a display An EL light serving as a device, 70 is an electrode for connecting the EL light to a power supply, 75 is a control box for controlling the supply of power to the electrode, and 80 is a frame back plate.

EL used as a display device in the above

As shown in FIG. 3, the decorative article which is also used as a reflector has a structure as described above, and is used upright like a picture frame using a support stand (85) on a desk or other flat place. be able to. Alternatively, the support (85) can be folded and used on a wall or the like using a hook (90).

An example of the use of such a decoration is as follows.
The details are as follows.

Considering the case where power is not supplied to the decorative object, as shown in a portion enlarged and displayed in FIG. 3A, the illuminance inside the main body is lower than the illuminance outside the main body. Therefore, when the light beam radiated from the outside is temporarily radiated to the reflecting mirror (55), the reflecting material layer (60)
Thus, about 70% of the total rays are reflected. The remaining about 30% reaches the EL light (65) through the fine gap. The EL light (65) also functions as a reflective layer when no power is supplied, and the light is reflected. You. Therefore, as described in connection with the related art, the ratio of the light rays reflected to the user is 90% or more, and the light rays serve as a reflecting mirror.

Conversely, when power is supplied, as shown in a portion enlarged and displayed by B in FIG. 4, when the control box (75) is operated, power is supplied to the EL light (65). It is lit. At that time, the illuminance of the EL light (65) is higher than the illuminance outside the main body (50), so that the light emitted by the predetermined pattern and the hue passes through the fine gap formed in the reflector layer (60). Through the reflecting mirror (55). Therefore, the viewer can see through the contents set on the EL light (65) appearing on the front surface of the main body (50), and thus plays a role as a decoration. At that time, the control box (75)
It is connected to each electrode (70) formed on the L light (65). Therefore, in the control box (75), the operation of turning on each EL light (65) sequentially or turning on the light at predetermined time intervals can be repeated.

Further, the control box (75) includes an EL
It is possible to adjust the time for supplying power to each divided area of the light (65) and the intensity of the power supply,
Further, a sound device may be included in the control box so as to generate a predetermined sound when power is supplied. As such a device, a product that is already widely used can be used. The moving image effect using the EL light (65) mentioned above will be described with reference to FIG.

For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the shape of the EL light is divided into a plurality of areas (A to F), and the divided areas are divided.
On (A to F), different predetermined hues and patterns are formed. If the control box is repeatedly turned on / off with a time difference between the divided areas thus formed, the overall shape gives a feeling as if it is moving. Can be.

[0021]

As described above, according to the present invention, the lighting device can basically be used as a decoration or a reflecting mirror depending on the necessity of blinking the lighting device, and the decoration is divided into EL lights. In each of these, blinking can be sequentially or simultaneously performed, so that a moving image decoration effect can be obtained as if the corresponding decoration is moving. Therefore, there is an effect of attracting a viewer. In addition, by using an EL light instead of a rod-shaped illumination lamp conventionally used as an illumination device, the main body can be made slim and an effect can be produced in various forms regardless of the installation location.
