The winding drum 4 is provided with a reel 40 which winds up and takes out the power supply cord 20 connected to the surface light emitting panel unit 2.

Since the surface light emitting panel unit 2 is provided in the shutter 1, when a character or a picture is displayed on the surface light emitting panel unit 2, since the direct light is displayed, the displayed contents can be easily checked even at night. The effect is high. It also has an illumination effect.

Since the power supply cord 20 connected to the surface light emitting panel unit 2 is wound around the reel 40 attached to the winding drum 4, the power supply cord 20 prevents opening and closing of the shutter 1. I never do that.

Furthermore, winding portions 11 and 11 are provided at the upper and lower ends of each of the shutter pieces 10, and the angle between the outer circumference of each of the winding portions 11 and 11 and the peripheral surface of the winding drum 4 is provided. Let L be the imaginary line which connects a contact point P, P, and both contact points P and P. The surface light emitting panel unit 2 is arranged more on the shutter 1 side than the virtual line L, and when the shutter 1 is wound on the winding drum 4, the surface light emitting panel unit 2 and the winding drum 4 ) Is avoiding contact. As a result, the surface emitting panel unit 2 is not disturbed when the shutter 1 is wound up and taken out.

Conventionally, an extra space for installing the irradiation lamp 8 (see Fig. 7) in the vicinity of the shutter 1 is required. However, the present application does not make an extra space, and the surface light emitting panel unit 2 is replaced with the shutter 1. Can be mounted on

Hereinafter, an example of this invention is explained in full detail using an accompanying drawing.

1 is a front view of the shutter 1 according to the present example, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of FIG. 1 broken in a plane including an A-A line. The opening and closing of the opening 50 of the building is switched by the shutter 1 guided by the pair of guide rails 5 and 5, and the shutter 1 is wound in the storage box 6. The point wound up by (4) and taken out is the same as before.

The present invention is characterized in that the surface light emitting panel unit 2 is attached to the shutter pieces 10 constituting the shutter 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the surface light emitting panel unit 2 includes a transparent protective cover 21 formed of acrylic or polycarbonate (PC), a surface light emitting panel 3, and the surface light emitting panel 3 therebetween. It is located on the opposite side of the protective cover 21 and consists of a plank (22) consisting of an aluminum plate, etc., the upper and lower end faces of the protective cover 21, the surface light emitting panel (3), the plank (22) It is held by a chuck 23. The surface light emitting panel 3 is supplied from the outside, and the structure of the surface light emitting panel 3 will be described later. Perforations are formed in the shutter pieces 10, and the surface light emitting panel unit 2 is mounted inside the shutter 1 with the protective cover 21 facing the perforations 13.

A gap M is formed between the surface light emitting panel 3 and the protective cover 21, and the transparent sheet 24 is inserted into the gap M. As shown in FIG. When the building is a store, letters or pictures are drawn on the transparent sheet 24, and light from the surface light-emitting panel 3 shines letters or pictures on the transparent sheet 24. As shown in FIG. The person on the outside of the shutter 1 can see the characters or pictures on the transparent sheet 24 through the protective cover 21. Moreover, the letters or pictures on the transparent sheet 24 may be colored.

As a result, the contents displayed on the transparent sheet 24 can be easily confirmed even at night, and the visual effect is high. Furthermore, there is also an illumination effect, so that the eyes of a pedestrian passing through the front of the shutter 1 at night can be relaxed.

One side of the surface light emitting panel unit 2 shown in Fig. 1 is provided with a lighting device such as an inverter mechanism or a light switch (not shown), and a power supply cord 20 is connected to this one side. The cord 20 for power feeding extends along one guide rail 5 and is wound around a reel 40 provided in the winding drum 4.

When opening the shutter 1, the motor (not shown) connected to the winding drum 4 is supplied to rotate the winding drum 4 to wind the shutter 1. In addition, you may pull up the shutter 1 by the winding drum 4 manually. At this time, since the power supply cord 20 is wound around the reel 40, the power supply cord 20 does not prevent opening and closing of the shutter 1.

It is also conceivable to incorporate a battery in the surface light emitting panel unit 2 and to eliminate the power supply cord 20. However, the battery has a short lifespan, and the battery is consumed during the night light, and there is a fear that the display content on the transparent sheet 24 is not irradiated. For this reason, the power supply cord 20 is connected to the surface light emitting panel unit 2 so that the power supply state is always maintained during lighting, and the surface light emitting panel unit 2 is turned off at night.

As shown in FIG. 2, the winding parts 11 and 11 are provided in the upper and lower ends of each shutter piece 10 as before. With the shutter 1 wound on the winding drum 4, the outer circumference of the winding portion 11 abuts on the peripheral surface of the winding drum 4 (see FIG. 8), and the outer circumference of the winding portion 11. Let L be the imaginary line connecting P, P, and both contacts to each contact with the peripheral surface of the winding drum 4.

When the surface light emitting panel unit 2 is arranged on the shutter 1 side rather than the virtual line L, and the shutter 1 is wound on the winding drum 4, the surface light emitting panel unit 2 and the winding drum 4 ) To avoid contact. As a result, the surface light emitting panel unit 2 is not disturbed when the shutter 1 is wound.

Conventionally, an extra space for installing the irradiation lamp 8 (see Fig. 7) in the vicinity of the shutter 1 is required. However, the present embodiment does not need to make an extra space. It can be attached to 1).

FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the surface light emitting panel 3, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a portion of the surface light emitting panel 3 of FIG. 3 broken along the line C-C. In FIG. 3, the power supply cord 20 is not illustrated for convenience of illustration. This content is disclosed by former applicant in Japanese Patent Application No. 2000-158272, which is an undisclosed invention. The surface light-emitting panel 3 inserts a protective box 31, which is a box with one side open, at a top and bottom end of the transparent panel plate 30 as a detachable material, and has a tubular cold cathode in the protective box 31. The lamp 7 and the reflector 32 are exhausted.

The panel plate 30 is made of acrylic resin or the like, and fine groove rows 33 are formed on the surface opposite to the light exit surface by gradation (dot printing) or laser processing. Each groove of the groove row 33 is formed such that the depth and width gradually change along the direction in which the groove extends. The groove rows 33 are covered by the reflective film 34 attached to the panel plate 30, and the light beams of the cold cathode lamps 7 are partially reflected by the reflective film 34 and then the groove rows 33. By changing the transmission direction in various ways, the panel plate 30 is irradiated uniformly.

The protective box 31 is formed of a material that withstands the tube temperature of the cold cathode lamp 7, specifically, an acrylic resin. The cold cathode lamp 7 arrange | positions an electrode at both ends, and it is discharged in the inert gas enclosed in the pipe as well. Ultraviolet rays generated by the collision of electrons and molecules of the inert gas by this discharge excite the phosphor coated on the inner surface of the tube to generate visible light. The cold cathode lamp 7 is characterized by low heat generation, low power consumption, and long life. As shown in FIG. 4, the cold cathode lamp 7 is supported in a state of being fitted into a holding tool 35 formed of a bifurcated spring plate mounted inside the protection box 31. In addition, an LED (light emitting diode) light source may be used instead of the cold cathode lamp 7. However, the LED light source is generally lower in luminance than the cold cathode lamp 7.

In the above description, the surface light emitting panel unit 2 irradiates the display on the transparent sheet 24 with the surface light emitting panel 3, but a liquid crystal panel may be used instead of the transparent sheet 24. However, since the liquid crystal panel does not emit light by itself, the surface light emitting panel 3 is necessary.

Instead of the surface light emitting panel 3 and the transparent sheet 24, an organic EL element which emits light by itself may be used.

Instead of the cold cathode lamp 7, it is also possible to use a hot cathode lamp which is a general fluorescent lamp. However, compared with the cold cathode lamp 7, it is difficult for a hot cathode lamp to have a small pipe diameter, and its life is short. Therefore, it can be considered that the hot cathode lamp has little merit in the small surface light-emitting panel 3.

In the above example, only one surface emitting panel unit 2 is provided on the shutter 1, but a plurality of surface emitting panel units 2 may be provided. In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, even if a plurality of surface light-emitting panel units 2 are lined up and a letter and a pattern are formed, a decorative effect is high.

In addition, although the information displayed by the surface light-emitting panel unit 2 was made into letters or drawings, such as a store name and an address, for example, an advertisement etc. can also be displayed and it can be said that various changes are possible according to a display purpose. none.

The description of the above examples is intended to illustrate the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the invention described in the claims or reducing the scope. In addition, the structure of each part of this invention is not limited to the said Example, It is natural that various deformation | transformation is possible within the technical scope as described in a claim.
