JPH06301351A - Display device at store front - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a display device at the store front which has a trial to attract the attention of a walker, etc., by displaying a specified numeral, a specified mark or a still picture and a moving picture at the entrance door of a store building such as a playing spot like a pinball hall, a store, and a restaurant, and to effectively use the space at the store front. CONSTITUTION:A thin plate-like display body 7 consisting of plural light emitting diodes 10 is disposed at the entrance door 1 provided at the store front so that the display body may be viewed from the outside of the store, and a control circuit making the light emitting diodes 10 flicker and a storage battery 16 for a power source are provided on the entrance door 1 integrally with the display body 7.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention draws attention of pedestrians by displaying predetermined numbers, symbols or still images, moving images, etc. on entrance doors of amusement centers such as pachinko halls, shops, restaurants and the like. The present invention relates to an over-the-counter display device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, at a store such as a game hall or a store,
For example, a show window is installed at a storefront facing the sidewalk so as to attract the attention of pedestrians. For example, a dynamic object or a flashing light is placed in the show window so that it can be naturally seen. We are trying to improve the advertising effect and obtain the power to attract customers.

[0003]

However, the show window has a problem in that it occupies a large amount of valuable space in a store. In particular, where the frontage is narrow, the width of the door for the entrance and exit is also necessary, so the width of the show window is inevitably narrowed, which causes a problem that a sufficient display effect cannot be obtained.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An in-store display device of the present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and a thin plate-shaped display body composed of a plurality of light-emitting diodes can be seen from outside the store at an entrance door provided in the store. A control circuit for blinking the light emitting diode and a storage battery for the power source are provided integrally with the display body at the entrance door.

[0005]

[Function] Only by attaching to the entrance door, it is possible to display noticeable characters, figures, etc. without a store space.

[0006]

[Embodiment] Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with respect to a storefront display device in a pachinko hall. In the figure, reference numeral 1 is a horizontal slide type entrance door made of thick plate glass provided at a pachinko hall shop, and the entrance door 1 is automatically slid to the left and right when a person approaches to open the passage. Reference numerals 2 and 3 denote infrared ray-sensing sensors that are provided downward on the outside and inside of the upper wall surface 4 of the entrance door 1 to detect the approach of a person. Reference numeral 6 indicates a pachinko machine provided in the store.

Reference numeral 7 is a thin plate-shaped display member attached to the inner surface of the entrance door 1. The display member 7 has a transparent resin sheet 8 and a numeral "8" as shown in FIG. And a wiring board 11 formed by attaching a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) 10 on the surface so as to be positioned in the through hole 5, and a back cover. And an engaging groove 13 formed in the peripheral portion of the back cover 12.
The ridges 14 formed on the peripheral edge of the resin sheet 8 are fitted to the above to superpose them. Reference numeral 18 denotes a screw connecting the die-cutting plate 9, the wiring board 11 and the back cover 12.

A circuit board 15 forming a control circuit and a cylindrical portion 17 for accommodating a storage battery 16 are integrally formed at the lower edge of the back cover 12. And the tubular part 1
A pair of electrodes 19, 19 for charging the storage battery 16 by connecting a charger (not shown) to the storage battery 16 is provided at one end of 7.

The plurality of light emitting diodes 10 use the storage battery 16 as a power source, are incorporated in the circuit board 15, and blink according to the instruction of the control circuit. In this embodiment, the light emitting diode 10 is capable of brightly displaying an arbitrary three-digit number by blinking, and the situation can be easily seen by pedestrians outside the store.
As is well known, numbers such as "7, 7, 7", which means a big hit, which is a special winning state of a pachinko machine, are randomly and eccentrically changed and displayed, which can attract the attention of pedestrians.

It is needless to say that the light emitting diode 10 can display not only numbers as in this embodiment, but also arbitrary characters, figures and the like. In that case, the light emitting diodes may be arranged on a plane in a dot matrix.

A light emitting diode which emits red light,
By using a diode that emits green light and a diode that emits blue light in combination, multicolor display or color display is possible.

In this storefront display device, the storage battery 16
Since it is provided integrally with the display body 7, it can be used immediately without the need for power wiring work by simply attaching it to the inner surface of the entrance door 1, and is easy to install and set. . Further, when the storage battery 16 is exhausted, it can be charged in a few minutes to a few hours by using a charger connected to the electrodes 19 and 19 during non-business hours. Since the power supply wiring is not required in this manner, the opening / closing movement of the entrance door 1 is not hindered, and the entrance door 1 does not impair the function as an automatic door at all.

[0013]

As described above, the in-store display device of the present invention is provided with the display body composed of a plurality of light emitting diodes at the entrance door so that desired characters, figures, etc. can be displayed by blinking. , It will be possible to provide an effective display that can attract the attention of pedestrians even in a store with a narrow frontage, requiring almost no installation space at the store. Further, since desired characters, figures, etc. can be clearly seen even in the daytime, there is a beneficial effect that a high advertising effect can be obtained.
