Definitions

  • the present invention relates to display panels , and is particularly concerned with panels for displaying advertisements, texts, or other graphic material.
  • the panels find particular utility in the interior of passenger vehicles such as aircraft, trains, coaches or the like, but may be used in other locations.
  • US patent 5,010,668 describes an advertising device for displaying advertising material in the back of an airliner seat so that the material is visible at all times .
  • a structure for the customary folding tray tables provided in airliners wherein advertising material is displayed from the underside of the tray table so as to be visible when the tray table is in a stowed condition lying adjacent to the seat back.
  • WO 95/14588 discloses adhesively attaching advertising material to the back of a seat, in a position in which the advertising material is concealed when a tray table attached to the seat is folded up, and revealed when the tray table is horizontal for use.
  • a disadvantage of such "stick-on" types of advertising display is that they present an irresistible temptation to passengers, particularly to younger passengers on long flights, to attempt to peel off the advertising. Such attempts result in an unsightly appearance when the next passenger is seated, leading to a loss of reputation for the operator.
  • Aircraft operation is made economical only if the aircraft can be kept flying for the maximum proportion of its working life, and operators therefore strive to minimise the time required to "turn round" an aircraft at the end of a journey, in preparation for its next departure.
  • advertising In aircraft where advertising is to be displayed, there is a need periodically to change the display materials, to cope with seasonal variations of product, or to publicise special offers for a limited time.
  • the devices of the prior art require that each seat is visited, its display material removed from the display device or pocket, and new material inserted or stuck on to the display area. This removal and replacement of flimsy printed sheets or adhesive stickers is a time-consuming procedure and reduces efficiency of operation by delaying the aircraft "turn round".
  • the present invention seeks to provide a display panel for use inter alia on aircraft seats, which allows advertising displayed within the aircraft to be changed rapidly with the minimum prolongation of "turn round” time but prevents the display material from being removed or defaced by passengers.
  • an advertising display panel which is detachably mountable to a supporting surface such as a vehicle seat, and has a front and a rear face defining therebetween a cavity to receive a display insert, the front face having a transparent window through which a display insert in the cavity is visible, and the rear face having an opening through which the display insert may be placed into an removed from the cavity.
  • the opening is thus accessible only when the display panel is removed from the supporting surface, in the preferred embodiments .
  • the detachable mounting is effected by means of cooperating mounting means on the rear face of the display panel and on the supporting surface, for example the vehicle seat or seat cover.
  • mounting means such as studs are permanently or semi-permanently fixed to the seat or seat cover, and are releasably cooperable with mounting structures on the rear face of the display panel.
  • release of the cooperating mounting studs and structures is effected by a release tool or implement.
  • a release tool is applied to or through the front face of the display panel to release the cooperating mounting studs and structures .
  • a change of advertising may be achieved rapidly, preferably by removing the entire panel from the seat and replacing it with a fresh panel into which the new advertising material has already been loaded.
  • the time-consuming operation of removing a printed sheet from each display panel and replacing it with another may be effected in advance, at for example a warehouse or factory, rather than in the aircraft cabin during 'turn round' .
  • the operation of exchanging a rigid panel on a seat takes considerably less time than exchanging the printed material, and the delay to 'turn round' is thus much reduced.
  • the pre-loaded panels also serve to protect the advertising material in transit to the aircraft, ensuring the best possible appearance to the public.
  • a passenger seat having a display panel releasably mountable thereto by mounting means comprising first and second cooperating mounting elements , the first mounting element being fixed to the seat or to a seat covering material and the second mounting element being associated with the display panel.
  • the first mounting element includes an abutment and the second mounting element includes a movable detent which engages the abutment when the panel is mounted to the seat, and is movable to a release position wherein the first and second mounting elements are separable.
  • the movable detent is resiliently biased away from the release position, and may be moved toward the release position by a release tool or implement.
  • a passenger seat having a generally planar tray table mounted for movement between a deployed position wherein the table occupies a generally horizontal position behind the seat back and a folded position wherein the tray table lies adjacent the rear surface of the seat back, has an advertising display panel detachably fixable to the seat back and containing an exchangeable display insert visible through a display window of the panel when the tray table is in the deployed position, and concealed by the tray table when the tray table is in the folded position.
  • a fourth aspect there is provided method of changing the display material displayed in a passenger vehicle provided with a first display panel on the back of a passenger seat for new display material, comprising the steps of: preparing a second substitute display panel displaying the new display material; removing the first display panel from the seat; and mounting the substitute display panel to the seat.
  • the display panel may be detachably mounted to the fabric covering material.
  • the display panel may be detachably mounted to a rigid seat back panel , and if necessary a fabric covering extending over the rigid seat back panel may be formed with an opening through which the display panel is visible, and through which the display panel may pass during removal and refitting to the seat.

Abstract

L'invention concerne des panneaux publicitaires prévus pour être fixés à des supports. Ces supports peuvent être placés dans des habitacles de véhicules, en particulier, dans des avions. Selon certains modes de réalisation, les panneaux d'affichage sont fixés, de manière libérable, aux dos des sièges. L'affichage peut être un élément imprimé, ou le panneau peut comprendre un écran pour visualiser des images graphiques ou fixes ou animées ou un texte. Les panneaux peuvent nécessiter un outil permettant de les retirer du dos des sièges. Pour améliorer la décoration de la cabine, ces panneaux peuvent être positionnés de manière à être cachés par les tablettes fixées aux dos des sièges et pouvant être repliées pour recouvrir une zone du dos du siège une fois repliées.
