These illuminating elements can selectively turn on and turn off to create styles, graphics, and visuals for informational and aesthetic purposes. An occupant who constructs such slabs or large panels each containing a plurality of illuminating elements can be assembled in a position for entertainment performances or activities, or a built-in advertising display is well known. Examples of such systems - are disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 6,8, 3,853, 6, 7, 4, 989, 18, 5, 1,335,972 and 6,314,669. ^ When the LED video market is expanding to a new field, the traditional fixed structure of led video panels will become a limitation. In the rapidly changing environment of the modern era, designers, architects, and advertisers will think about (4) sex and diversity, and use only - or several products. For example, a panel or modular box system can operate well in a stadium scoreboard or as an advertisement on the Las Vegas Strip, but large panels have limitations in terms of transparency and weight. Therefore, there is a need in an event or a theatrical production to use a display system that can be easily removed, for example, between scenes of a drama or as specified by the production requirements. Display devices that are constructed as large panels or as a series of sturdy plates that are bolted or permanently affixed together are highly unsuitable for use in such applications. Displays such as & may be large and heavy, and require sufficient support for the machine, time, and storage space for installation. For example, an electronic signal display system, as disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 6,704,989, to the name of U.S. Pat. display. In order to improve these limitations, as explained above, many of the existing products with transparency have been developed and are lighter in weight than the panel-based equivalent. An example of such a prior art display device is disclosed in U.S. Pat. Please refer to FIG. 1, which shows an example of a conventional display device 1〇1. The display device 101 includes two columns at each end of the display device 1〇1 and parallel and evenly spaced beams 1〇5 attached to the column 103. Each beam 1 〇5 然 6 1335972 then includes a plurality of pixels 1 〇 7 disposed thereon with uniform spacing between the beams 1 〇 5 . However, several limitations still prevent the full use of conventional technology display devices. The weight of this display device may still be too cumbersome. Second, the transparency of the device can still be improved and its visibility reduced when it is not in use. Furthermore, the device of the display device makes it difficult to assemble and/or unload the display system before and after use. Therefore, there is a need for display devices and display systems to improve such conventional technology displays for continued development and success in various lighting industries.

This method also includes The page ## is sent to the display device, wherein a is not in the device, and the plurality of pixels are further configured to display an image according to the data signal. Other views of the invention fj; | I @1 gauge.·>, advantages It will be apparent from the following description and the appended claims. [Embodiment] The embodiment disclosed herein relates to a light-emitting device having increased transparency. The light-emitting device includes a rib, a towel thereof, Ribs have Thicker nodes interconnected by thinner rods. In another aspect, the embodiment disclosed herein relates to a connector disposed between illumination devices of an illumination system. Since the illumination device is in the system Connected to each other, the connectors enable the illumination means of the system to be rotated relative to each other. Also for the sake of consistency, similar elements in the various figures may be represented by the same reference numerals. Referring to Figure 2, the disclosure is disclosed herein. Front view of illumination device 201 of an embodiment. Illumination device 201 includes a frame 203 having a 1357972 spine 205 having attached ribs 2〇7. As shown or not, such ribs 207 may be from spine 2G5 Formed, or such ribs are removably attached to the spine 2〇5. Further, the ribs 2〇7 include nodes 2〇9 interconnected with the connecting rod 211. Specifically, as shown, each rib 207 Having a node 2〇9 and a connecting rod 2", a node in the basin (10) and a connecting rod 211 (for example, the first node is attached to the first connecting rod, the first connecting rod is attached to the second node, and the second node is attached to the second node Connecting rods, etc., to form ribs 207. Each node 2〇9 may then include a pixel 213, for example, disposed in node 209 to emit light. Thus, the hair may be attached to the spine a plurality of ribs, and each rib includes a plurality of pixels. The light-emitting device 201 further includes a lightning 1 and a power-to-lighting device: n is supplied with a data signal, and as shown, the electrical connector can be attached to the spine 2〇5 of the light-emitting device 2〇1, and Electrically coupled to pixel 213 to supply data signals and power to control such pixels 213. The electrical connector 241 can be electrically connected to an adjacent light emitting device (not shown) or can be electrically connected to a power source (not shown). The spine 2〇5 and the ribs 2〇7 may then include an electrical circuit or circuit board to electrically connect the pixel 213 to the electrical connector 241 to transmit and supply the desired data signals and power. Thus, for the pixel 213 receiving the power, the power received in the isoelectric connector can be used in the light-emitting device 201 for the circuit board or wire 'for each pixel 213' via the spine 2〇5 and via each connection. The rod 2 is transmitted and transmitted to emit light. Still referring to Fig. 2, the frame 2〇3 of the illumination device 2〇1 may include a 9 1335972 front housing 215 and a rear housing (not shown). The front housing 2i5 and the rear housing can be configured to provide such pixels 2 and any electrical components disposed therein. For example, the front casing 2丨5 has a U-shaped cross section in the region of the spine 2〇5 and the rib 2〇7, and is attached with a rear casing. Therefore, the pixel 213 f: is connected to the electrical connection n 241 卩 supply data signal Xiao electric power line and / or circuit board, can be set together with the frame 2 〇 3 for protection. Further, because the illuminating device can be used in both outdoor and indoor environments, the illuminating device can include a sealant to provide a weather resistant or weather resistant structure. For example, a sealant such as an all weather adhesive can be placed in some or all of the area between the front and rear housings to prevent any liquid from entering or leaving the illuminating device. Light-emitting devices according to embodiments disclosed herein may increase their transparency to enhance visibility through such illumination devices when they are not in use. Therefore, the cross-sectional area of the connecting rod can be minimized to increase the transparency. For example, the connecting rod can have a thinner cross section than the joint. Then, when the illumination device is in use, the pixels in the node can be very clear: visible and bright 'when the illumination device is not in use' such thinner connectors can increase transparency. In order to further reduce the size and cross section of the connecting rods, wires can be used instead of the circuit board to electrically connect the pixels in the lighting device. However, if a circuit board is used, the direction of the boards in each of the connecting rods and/or the spine may be perpendicular to the plane of the ribs. In this direction, the thinner side of the 1 board can be exposed to the visible path L through the illuminating device to reduce the cross-sectional area required for the connecting rod. Therefore, several techniques can be used to reduce the cross-section of the connecting rod relative to such nodes, and thus, 1335972 can enhance the transparency of the illuminating device. Referring now to Figure 3, there is shown a perspective view of a light emitting device 201 in accordance with an embodiment disclosed herein. As discussed above, the illumination device includes a frame 203 having a spine 205 having attached ribs 207. This frame 203 can then include a front housing 215 and a rear housing 217. As shown, the front housing 215 and the rear housing 217 can be attached to each other using screws 219. However, those having ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the present invention is not limited thereto and can be used in the art. Any securing mechanism, such as a bolt or adhesive material, is well known without departing from the scope of the invention. Further, in this embodiment, as shown by the shape of the spine 2〇5, the spine 205 may include a circuit board disposed thereon, and its direction is perpendicular to the plane of the rib 207. In addition to reducing the thickness and cross-sectional area of the spine 205 in the direction of the circuit board in the spine 2〇5, the transparency of the light-emitting device 2〇 can be increased, and the robustness of the light-emitting device can be increased. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the ribs 2A can be integrally formed with the spine 205 in the illumination device 201. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the ribs may be removably secured to the spine of the illumination device. For example, the ribs can be attached to the spine via an interference fit such that the ribs can be "snapped, loaded with the spine and removed from the spine, thus allowing the ribs to be removably mounted Attached to the spine.
