Pattern description

The object of a utility model is a hot air advertising medium comprising a coating having at least one substantially flat surface and a heated air inlet at its lower end. The object of a utility model combines the features of a hot air balloon and a large-format advertisement.

Hot-air balloons having an oval, drop-like shape are known. The primary purpose of these balloons is for sports or recreational flights. By the way, they can be additionally used to display sponsors' advertisements.

Hot air balloons of various external shapes are known, e.g. a can of beer, a car, a lollipop, also intended for flying, and additionally also advertising a specific product or company.

There are also hot air wheelhouses used for recreational or sports flights and for advertising sponsors. In these types of aircraft, the hot air carrying the ship is heated by the flame of a gas burner placed in a basket suspended under the ship. In the case of balloons, the basket is suspended from straps or ropes attached around the balloon canopy. Hot air, filling the canopy, stretches it, also causing tension of the lifting straps / ropes. In the case of hot air airships, the ropes are hung at multiple points mainly to the top of the shell.

The mentioned types of aircraft are manned, intended primarily for flying, but additionally they can also serve as an advertisement, whether during the flight or during ground presentation.

The essence of the utility model is a hot air advertising carrier, characterized by the fact that its coating is attached to the ground by at least two fastening ropes and has at least one connecting cord connected at its ends from the inside to the opposite side walls of the coating, and at least four supporting ropes the upper ends of which are internally connected to the upper surface of the sheath and the lower ends of which are connected to at least one flexible link connected via at least four intermediate lines to a heated air supply device.

This type of carrier is a tethered body, floating above the ground thanks to the heated air, in a shape that allows free display of large-format advertisements. On the side surfaces of the carrier's shell, advertisements are displayed in the form of attached banners, in the form of direct printing on the coating, or in the form of an advertisement displayed from an external projector.

Lifting of the carrier is achieved by heating the air inside the carrier shell, while appropriate tension of the side surfaces of the carrier shell is achieved by heating the air inside the carrier shell and stretching the cables connecting the shell with the ground.

It is preferred that the hot air supply device is suspended from the intermediate lines of a basket equipped with a gas burner. In such a case, it is preferable that the carrier comprises a remote gas supply line to the gas burner from the on-ground gas installation, preferably in the form of a compressed gas cylinder.

Thanks to this, it can be operated entirely from the ground (operating the ropes holding the carrier in a tether and operating the gas installation) or, in the case of placing the cylinder in the basket, from the ground and the basket (operating the burner).

Alternatively, it is preferable that the heated air supply device is suspended from the intermediate lines, the outlet of a lute connected to the ground heating device. In such a case, the inlet of a closed-circuit lobe with a heating device on the ground and a heated air supply lobe may also advantageously be provided to the intermediate lines.

The hot air supply can therefore take place in an open circuit, where the air to be heated is taken from the outside, then heated and fed through a gas burner or a sleeve-lute to the carrier, or in a closed circuit, where the air is taken from the inside with a sleeve-lute. medium, then heated on the ground and pressed with a second lute sleeve back to the medium.

Claims (7)

The carrier shell is preferably prismatic, more preferably cuboid. The hot air advertising medium according to the utility model is a solution that opens up new perspectives for the development of the large-format outdoor advertising market outside city centers. The object of the utility model in the exemplary embodiments is shown in the attached drawing, in which Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the advertising carrier floating with heated air, Fig. 2 the carrier in cross-sections, and Figs. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 5 alternative details of the implementation. The exemplary heated air-borne advertising carrier shown in Figures 1 and 2 comprises a substantially rectangular shell 1, lifted by the heated air supplied by a flame from a gas burner 2 fixed in a basket 3 suspended from the shell by four intermediate lines 4 connected to the shell 1. in turn, with four linkages 5, which then connect to twenty carrier lines 6 attached from the inside to the upper part of the shell along its entire perimeter and surface. Opposite side walls of the shell are connected by eighteen connecting lines 7 maintaining a given shape of the side surfaces of the carrier body. Also attached to the coating 1 are fastening ropes 8 fixed to the ground, which keep the carrier tethered, leading to the formation of a suitable tension on the side surfaces of the coating 1. On the edges of the coating, also tapes 9 are attached to which sheets of material containing advertising imprints are attached. The gas to the burner 2 mounted in the basket 3 is supplied in appropriate sequences through lines 10 from the cylinder 11 on the ground. Figures 3 to 5 show alternative hot air supply systems. As shown in Figure 3, gas can be supplied to the burner from cylinders 13 in the basket through a solenoid valve 12 actuated from the ground. It is also possible to get hot air from a heating device placed on the ground. This can take place in an open circuit, as shown in Figure 4, where the air to be heated is taken from the outside, then heated in a heating device 14 and fed through a sleeve-lute 15 to the shell, or as shown in Figure 5. , in a closed circuit, where air is drawn in with the sleeve-lute 16 from inside the shell, then heated on the ground and forced with the second sleeve-lute 17 back inside the shell.
