Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the examples of the embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 1, the signboard device configured in the present invention is housed in a box-shaped frame member (4) connected to a solar panel (1) as a power supply source, a signboard body, and a storage battery (5). It is a stand-alone outdoor signboard device that does not require a commercial power supply and is composed of a charge / discharge control device.

The signboard body is composed of a space for voluntary advertising (2) and digital signage (3). For business promotion, character design information may be written with fluorescent paint in part or all of the advertising space (2), and it is rational to use digital signage (3) for article promotion content that needs to be changed. Is the target.

The box-shaped frame member is provided with a portable socket that can be used in the event of a disaster, and is provided with a wireless communication device for communication. Digital signage can function by providing this communication device.

Since the device of the present invention is a stand-alone type, it has a high degree of freedom in installation location and can be remotely controlled by storing and installing a wireless LAN, so that it can be used not only for personal use but also for public use.

Here, the on-board communication system is equipped with at least a 4th generation mobile communication system (4th Generation; so-called 4G), but considering centralized access in the event of a disaster, the communication speed of the 4G (approximately 50 Mbps to 1 Gbps). Is said to be inadequate. Due to the problem of blackout, it is not suitable as an information system in the event of a disaster, and a system faster than 4G is required.
Fortunately, recent advances in communication technology have led to the provision of 5th generation mobile communication systems (5th generation; so-called 5G), and 5G can be preferably adopted in the present invention. The 5G includes "high-speed and large-capacity (eMBB; enhanced Mobile Broadband)", "high-reliability and low-latency communications (URLLC)" and "massive machine type communication (mMTC)". Because it has three features, it is attracting attention as the basis for realizing digital transformation, but the communication speed is 20 times faster, the delay is 1/10, and the number of simultaneous connections is 10 times that of 4G. A wide range of use cases are expected in order to maintain.

In local administrative services, information can be exchanged in the event of a disaster through this series of signage devices, and risk information can be shared by communication with 5G specifications, enabling high-speed, large-capacity, high-reliability, low-delay communication and multiple simultaneous connections. Because it can be done, it is the best as a personal risk management tool. Considering the variety of communication functions provided in the device of the present invention, for example, it is possible to utilize a drone, and it is a device that can instantly acquire neighborhood video information in the event of a disaster and share it with local residents. It can also be provided to the administrative agencies and information centers that have jurisdiction over the region, which can contribute to the prevention of the spread of damage.
Since the power source is a solar panel, it can be widely installed in a place where electricity can be stored, expecting to serve as an information relay point or an information base. Of course, since it also has the original functions of the signboard, it can be provided as an extremely rational one.
