These characters can be arranged horizontally or vertically to create an advertising sign for a company or an information sign for a hospital or other facility.

Description

THREE-DIMENSIONAL MϋLTI-DIRECTIONAL CHARACTERS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates generally to characters, and more specifically to characters used in signs.
1. Related Art
There is currently a wide range of methods of advertising all around the world. Signs advertising and announcing a place of business can be seen everywhere. The goal of the signs is to inform the public of the business and the location of the business. It cannot be argued that advertising the location of a business is very important to the success of that business.
The importance of the advertising sign can be inferred from the large number of signs throughout the world. Thus another important aspect of advertising signs is that they attract the consumer's attention so that the signs are read by the consumers. As a result, businesses are constantly searching for flashier and more unusual signs to grab the consumer's attention. Many different variations on the same theme have been utilized in generating signs. However, all of them have been limited in the sense that they can only be read for a range of approximately one hundred degrees. Therefore, this art remains amenable to useful refinement.
SUMMARY OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS This invention introduces such refinement. My invention includes characters which are three dimensional and can be read for a range of three hundred and sixty degrees. These characters can be arranged horizontally or vertically to create an advertising sign for a company or an informative sign for a hospital and such.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Although I am discussing in detail English letters, some numbers, and punctuation, this is only to convey the invention. The invention can be used for many letters, numbers, symbols, shapes and punctuation, therefore, this description is intended to teach the invention which can be applied to more characters than specifically discussed in this detailed description. The letter "A" 10 (Fig. 1) includes an external truncated conical body 11, a top internal conical body 12 and a bottom truncated internal conical body 13. The outer surface 14 of the top internal conical body and the outer surface 15 of the bottom truncated internal conical body are parallel to the outer surface 16 of the external truncated conical body. The base 17 of the external truncated conical body is shared by the base 18 of the bottom internal truncated conical body. The letter "H" 20 (Fig. 2) includes an external cylindrical body 21, a top internal cylindrical body 22 and a bottom internal cylindrical body 23. The outer surface 24 of the top internal cylindrical body and the outer surface 25 of the bottom cylindrical body are parallel to the outer surface 26 of the external cylindrical body. The top 29a of the external cylindrical body is shared by the top 29 of the top internal cylindrical body. The base 27 of the external cylindrical body is shared by the base 28 of the bottom internal cylindrical body.
The letter "I" (Figs. 3a through 3c) can be generated several ways. The capital letter "I" 30 (Fig. 3a) includes a cylindrical body 31, a top circular disk 32, and a bottom circular disk 33. The center of the bottom surface 35 of the top circular disk is attached to the top (not shown) of the cylindrical body 31. The center of the top surface 34 of the bottom circular disk is attached to the bottom 36 of the cylindrical body 31. The lower case wi" 40 (Fig. 3b) includes a cylindrical body .41 and a sphere 42 located directly above the top 43 of the cylindrical body. The lower case λ,i" 45 (Fig. 3c), the lower case "1" 45, and the number wl" 45 includes a cylindrical body 46.
The letter "0" 50 (Fig. 4), the punctuation w." 50, and the number "0" 50, includes an external spherical body 51. It can also include an internal spherical body 52.
The capital letter "T" 60 (Fig. 5a) includes a cylindrical body 62 and a circular disk 61. The center of the bottom surface 63 of the circular disk is attached to the top (not shown) of the cylindrical body. The lower case wt" 65 (Fig. 5b), the symbol of the Christian cross wf" 65, and the plus sign w+" 65 include a cylindrical body 67 and a circular disk 66. The circular disk is attached to the cylindrical body about its center. The letter "ϋ" 70 (Fig. 6) includes an external cylindrical body 71 and an internal cylindrical body 72. The bottom of the cylindrical bodies being rounded. The top 74 of the external cylindrical body is shared by the top 73 of the internal cylindrical body.
The letter "V" 75 (Fig. 7) includes and external inverted truncated conical body 76 and an internal inverted truncated conical body 77. The top 79 of the external inverted truncated conical body is shared with the top 78 of the internal inverted truncated conical body.
The letter "X" 80 (Fig. 8) includes an inverted truncated conical body 81 and a truncated conical body 82. The inverted truncated conical body includes an internal inverted truncated conical body 83. The truncated conical body includes an internal truncated conical body 84. The inverted truncated conical body 81 and the truncated conical body are attached 85 to form the letter "X".
The letter "Y" 90 (Fig. 9) includes and inverted truncated conical body 91 and a cylindrical body 92. The inverted truncated conical body includes an internal inverted truncated conical body 93. The inverted truncated conical body is attached 94 to the top of the cylindrical body.
Each character can be made of one type of material, thus creating a solid uniform character. This material can be translucent, opaque, or completely solid. Also, the characters made of only one type of material can be given more detail by carving out portions of the material. Further, each letter can also be made of two or more materials to create a more detailed character. More detailed characters can be created with materials with visually contrasting characteristics, such as, color, light, fiber optics, or an empty space. Many different variations in configuration can be used to generate a character, and my invention includes all the possible variations of each character.
The characters can be arranged to generate a word in a sign. The characters can be arranged vertically (Figs. 10 and 11) and the characters can be arranged horizontally (Fig. 12).
The foregoing detailed description is intended as merely exemplary, and not to limit the scope of the invention - which scope is to be determined by reference to the appended claims.
