Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a signboard in which a conductive transparent body is used for the signboard body.

(Prior art and its problems) In general, signboards have been known in the past, consisting of two display boards made of resin boards etc. on which store information etc. are displayed, and the gap between the two display boards. By installing light bulbs, fluorescent lights, etc. in the space of the signboard and lighting them at night to brighten the display board, or by installing light bulbs around the signboard and making the light bulbs blink, attract people's attention. Attempts are being made to do so.

However, since such conventional signboards are installed at the front of most stores, they have a weak impact on people who see them, especially in places facing roads that are flooded with signboards. In addition, attempts were made to make the entire display board brighter and the surrounding decorations more flashy to make it stand out, making the design complicated and conversely weakening the impression of the display board itself. .

In addition, there are also known cases in which neon tubes are used to create store guides, advertisements, etc. in the form of signboards that are attached to walls, etc., but conductive wires, etc. are exposed, and the aesthetic effect of signs made with neon tubes is was damaging.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention has been made for the purpose of solving the above-mentioned problems. A conductive transparent body is constructed by disposing the wire on a base portion made of a transparent electrically insulating material, the conductive transparent body is used as a sign body, and an electrical display element is attached to the conductive transparent body. , the electric display element is a signboard using a conductive wire inside the conductive transparent body as a power supply means.

(Function) Therefore, in the signboard of the present invention, a conductive transparent body is used for the signboard body, and the electric display element attached to the conductive body is so thin that it is almost invisible to the human eye inside the conductive transparent body. Since the conductive wire is used as the power supply means, it is possible to produce an unexpected effect as if the electric display element is lighting up independently without the power supply means in the transparent space provided by the conductive transparent body.

(Example) Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

First, the configuration of the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 will be described.

As shown in FIG. 1, the signboard of this embodiment is a wall-mounted type signboard, and includes a base l fixed to the wall, a sign body 2 integrally attached to the base 1, and a sign body 2 that is integrally attached to the base 1. 2, a character display element 3 and a mark display element 4 are provided.

As shown in FIG. 2, the sign body 2 has a front side formed of a conductive transparent body 10 and a back side formed of an insulating transparent body 20.

As shown in FIG. 3, the conductive transparent body 10 is made of an achromatic or chromatic transparent electric insulating material (resin, glass, etc.).
A conductive mesh 12 is embedded in a base portion 11 consisting of the following.

The base portion 11 includes two transparent plates 13 made of transparent insulating material.
．． It is made up of 14. These two transparent plates 1
The constituent materials of 3.14 may be of the same type or of different types.

The conductive mesh 12 is disposed between the two transparent plates 13 and 14, and as shown in FIG. By incorporating a plurality of conductive wires 15 in parallel orthogonally to 16,
It is structured like a net.

The groove wire 15 is formed of an ultra-fine wire with a diameter or It@0.1 mm or less, and this wire is a gold wire,
In addition to being formed from metal wires such as silver wires, copper wires, zinc wires, and stainless steel wires, they are also formed by vapor depositing or plating metal on the surface of resin wires such as polyester wires.

Further, the electrically insulated wire 16 is also formed of an ultrafine strand with a diameter or width of 0.1 mm or less, and this strand is formed of a resin strand such as a polyester wire or a nylon wire.

As mentioned above, the conductive transparent body 10 has a conductive mesh 12
Because the conductive wires 15 and electrically insulated wires 16 that constitute the wires are made of ultrafine strands, the whole appears as an achromatic or chromatic transparent body.

Note that the intervals between adjacent conductive wires 15 and the intervals between adjacent electrically insulated wires 16 are set in consideration of the viewer's sense of transparency.
For example, when using conductive wire 15 and electrically insulated wire 16 with a diameter of about 0.1 am, the distance between adjacent wires is 10! It is desirable to set it roughly to about I11 or more, and when using conductive wires 15 and electrically insulated wires 16 with a diameter of about 20 gm, the interval between adjacent wires is lam
It can be set as densely as possible.

The character display element 3 and the mark display element 4 each use a neon tube shaped like a character or mark, and the positive and negative terminals of each display element 3 and 4 are connected to different conductive wires 15, respectively. ing. Furthermore, character display element 3
When connecting the terminals of the mark display element 4 to the conductive wires 15, parts of the transparent plates 13 and 14 constituting the base portion 11 are dissolved with a solvent or the like, and the conductive wires 15 embedded in the base portion 11 are melted. Connect by exposing a part of it to the outside.

Further, these conductive wires 15 are each connected to a power source 17 built into the base 1.

Therefore, the character display element 3 and the mark display element 4 each independently use the conductive wire 15 as a power supply means, and as shown in FIG. , character display element 3 and mark display element 4
Various types of control can be performed, such as making the characters blink alternately, or keeping the character display element 3 lit all the time and making only the mark display element 4 blink.

Further, in the signboard of this embodiment, since the entire signboard body 2 is formed of a transparent material, the character display element 3 and the mark display element 4 are lit in the transparent space provided by the signboard body 2. You can create an unexpected feeling, create a clean design, and have a great impact on the viewer.

Further, the conductive mesh 12 in the conductive transparent body 10 is sandwiched between transparent plates 13 and 14 made of transparent electrically insulating material from both sides and is not exposed to the surface, so it is safe and protected from electric shock. .

Next, the second and third embodiments will be explained.

Incidentally, in describing the second embodiment and the third embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are given the same reference numerals, and the explanation thereof will be omitted. Furthermore, explanations of the same functions as in the first embodiment will be omitted.

First, the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 is a stand-type signboard in which the base 5 is placed on a horizontal surface, and a light emitting diode 71 is placed on the back side of the signboard body 6 made of only a conductive transparent body 10. Character display 7 arranged in a shape,
A mark display 8 formed by arranging light emitting diodes 81 in the shape of a mark is attached. The part of the sign body 6 to which the mark display 8 is attached protrudes semispherically from the front side, so that the mark display 8 appears three-dimensionally, further increasing the impact on the viewer.

The light emitting diode 71.81 is partially connected to the base part 11.
and are connected to different conductive wires 15, respectively.

Therefore, for example, character displays 7a, 7b, old...

Complex lighting control is possible, such as repeating a state in which the characters 7h are turned on sequentially from left to right, and finally all the character displays 7a, 7b, . . . , 7h are turned on at the same time.

Further, by using one light emitting diode 71, 81 in multiple colors such as red, green, yellow, etc., various lighting controls can be performed.

Next, in the third embodiment shown in FIG. 8, a diode display panel 40 is incorporated into a signboard body 30, and the diode display panel 40 is provided with light emitting diodes 41 arranged in a plurality of rows. Each light emitting diode 41 is independently connected to a conductive wire 15 within the conductive transparent body IO.

Therefore, since the light emitting diode 41 to be lit can be freely selected from among the plurality of light emitting diodes 41 arranged, any number of characters or marks can be displayed on one signboard. Furthermore, it is also possible to repeatedly send messages and the like.

In the figure, 50 is a base.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above in detail with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and the present invention may be modified without departing from the gist of the present invention. included.
