- FIG. 1 shows a display device according to the invention, which comprises a frame 10, a display window 12, transfer means 14 and a magazine 16.
- the frame 10 is shown in Figure 2, seen from the front with a partial cutaway. We can consider that this frame has a substantially parallelepiped shape of large width and height but shallow depth.
- the frame 10 comprises a foot 18 secured to the parallelepipedal part oriented towards the rear so as to give the entire frame a certain stability taking into account that the parallelepiped is slightly inclined on the rear.
- wheels 20 are integrated in the stand 18 so as to allow movement of the entire display device.
- the display window 12 has a width substantially equal to that of the parallelepiped, to the thickness near the casing enveloping the parallelepiped and determining the display window 12.
- This display window 12 is oriented towards the front of the device and is delimited by an upper strip 22 and a lower strip 24 intended to mask the transfer means 14 which will be described later.
- Figure 2 there is shown a front view of the device with a partial cutaway.
- the display window 12 comprises a transparent front wall 26 fixed relative to the frame, more particularly with respect to the upper strip 22 and the lower strip 24 so as to provide protection and sealing of the interior of the frame and of the members that 'it contains.
- the device 14 for transferring the panels 28 comprises a mechanical system 30 for transferring the gripping means 32 and the selection means 34.
- the gripping means 32 consist of the end of the plunger core of an electromagnetic jack 36 comprising an electromagnet 38.
- this electromagnet 38 causes the displacement of the gripping means 32, in this case the plunger, in the direction indicated by the arrow 40.
- This jack 36 is fixed directly on a support bar 41, integral with a band 42 in closed loop mounted around two notched pulleys 44, driven in rotation by a shaft 46, all of the upper and lower mechanical systems 30 being synchronized by a notched belt 48 cooperating with the pulleys and integral with said band.
- the motorization in itself has not been indicated because it is known to those skilled in the art and can be arranged between the upper and lower pulleys 44.
- flanges 52 integral with the casing simultaneously guide the strip in closed loop 42 on its lateral part masked by the upper strip 22 while ensuring a bearing role for the shaft 46, and keeping the panel plated on the tape.
- the bore serving as a bearing inside the flange opens out and the lateral casing is also provided with a hole opposite the bore of the flange and provided with a removable cover.
- the reserve 16 is shown in detail in partial view in FIG. 5. It comprises a casing 54, in which the panels 28 are arranged, parallel to each other and provided with tongues 56 respectively A , B and C for the three panels shown , these tabs being at variable distances from the edges, the panels being aligned.
- Each protruding tongue is provided with a hole 58 at its upper part, that is to say above the panel itself.
- this cassette is provided with a memory 60 and a pin 62 intended to be connected with a corresponding pin, not shown, secured to the frame of the display device.
- the frame of the display device according to the invention comprises a foot 18 oriented towards the rear and ensuring the stability of the assembly as shown in detail in FIG. 3.
- this piloting unit 64 for piloting the selection, gripping and transfer means, this piloting unit being supplied with the information contained in the memory 60 thanks to the connecting pin 62 of The tape.
- the user positions a module of the display device according to the invention, as has just been described, at the place where he wishes to display the information represented on the display panels 28.
- a cassette 54 comprises various panels 28, 28 A, 28 B, 28 C, which are arranged in any order in the cassette, the tab being oriented upwards and the side with the information being oriented towards the rear of the device .
- the memory 60 of the cassette has been programmed with the times of passage of the panels and the order of passage of these. As soon as the cassette is connected to the frame 10, the information contained in the memory 60 is transferred, thanks to the pin 62, to the control unit 64.
- the control unit 64 therefore has in memory the "tops" of passage, the durations of passage and the coordinates of the panels to be passed.
- the display of panel A is provided . Consequently, the electromagnet 38 of the jack 36 A , that is to say of the jack arranged opposite the tongue A, is supplied so that the plunger acting as a support projects out of the body of the jack 36 and the diver passes through the hole 58 of tongue 56 A.
- the control unit 64 then controls the starting of the motorization so as to rotate the pulleys 44 which themselves drive the toothed belt 48, which itself drives the support strip 42 on which the jacks 36 are attached
- the poster A is therefore extracted from the reserve 54 and the tongue, mounted flexible with respect to the panel, is driven and curves so as to follow the profile of the strip 42 in closed loop, the tongue being pressed and held by the inside the strip 22, so that the tongue does not "jump" from the end of the plunger of the gripping means 32.
- the end of the plunger head is slightly flattened so to give it a blocking power.
- the semi-rigid panel bends in turn and follows the profile of the strip 42 and as soon as the panel begins to descend into the display window 12, it is pressed against the transparent outer protective wall 26 by the plating element springs 50.
- the control unit stops the motorization, so that the face of the panel A carrying the information is perfectly positioned in the display window 12.
- control unit supplies power again to the motorization to cause the gripping of panel B by a second series of jacks 36, and simultaneously panel A is returned to its initial position.
- the tongue is held by the strip 24 on the gripping means 32, the tongue being, after its rotation, held by gravity, the panel exerting by its own weight a pull downwards.
- the panel When the panel is in line with the reserve, taking into account the inclination of the frame, the lower part of the panel is housed in the reserve. It then suffices to excite the electromagnet of the jack 36 so that the tongue is released from the gripping means 32. The panel, of sufficient rigidity, is pressed against the panel C remaining in the reserve. During this phase, the panel B has been placed to the right of the display window 12 and it remains for the programmed duration.
- the control unit thus causes the display of the various panels at the different times and for the established durations.
- the user can also change display panels almost instantly. It suffices for this to prepare a cassette and to put in the memory 60 the necessary information, then to substitute the second cassette for the first, the information transmitted to the control unit by the first cassette being erased and replaced by the information contained in the memory 60 of the second cassette.
- the cassette has no memory and the control unit 64 is connected either by a radio link or by cable to a control station which may be a program previously introduced into a microcomputer.
- control unit is then directly linked to the pre-established sequence in the microcomputer, which makes it possible to modify in real time, the order of passage of the panels, or quite simply the duration of passage.
- the gripping means that is to say the plunger may itself be an electromagnet on which the tongue covered with a metallic film could come to be pressed by magnetic forces.
- the frame can be modified, in particular its inclination, or even its general external appearance.
- Such a display device can be mounted on poles, for display in the city for example, or well installed on a vehicle for mobile urban display.
- the preferred embodiment of the invention provides for the use of composite materials or more generally of plastic materials which allow by molding the manufacture of high precision elements, while the different transparent facades , the panels and the band of the transfer means are provided in suitable materials such as polycarbonate, plasticized sheets for the panels and a transparent plastic film for the band in closed loop.
- the production of the panels can advantageously be carried out from plastic sheets, the lateral edges of which are stiffened by a metal tape, slightly bent transversely, equivalent to the measuring tape, so as to ensure sufficient rigidity of the panel when it is in the vertical position while allowing easy bending as soon as the bending begins.
- the system can be made bright thanks to neon lights, for example, placed behind the panels.
- the attachment means may consist of a retractable lug, an inflatable balloon, or an expandable mandrel, arranged at the end of a movable rod, these various means cooperating with the holes in the tabs of the panels.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif d'affichage d'informations.The present invention relates to an information display device.
On connaît différents dispositifs d'affichage d'informations, notamment publicitaires. C'est ainsi qu'il existe des panneaux d'affichage qui comprennent une fenêtre d'affichage dans laquelle apparaissent des informations préalablement imprimées sur un film enroulé sur un premier rouleau, disposé a la partie inférieure du panneau d'affichage, tandis qu'un rouleau récepteur, en partie supérieure, enroule le film sur une longueur correspondant à la hauteur de l'affiche.Various devices for displaying information, in particular advertising devices, are known. There are thus display panels which include a display window in which appear information previously printed on a film wound on a first roll, arranged at the lower part of the display panel, while a take-up roller at the top rolls up the film over a length corresponding to the height of the poster.
De tels panneaux d'affichage sont généralement motorisés et l'affiche est changée périodiquement. Il est même prévu que le sens d'enroulement-déroulement soit inversé afin de pouvoir revenir sur les panneaux précédents.Such display panels are generally motorized and the poster is changed periodically. It is even expected that the direction of winding-unwinding is reversed in order to return to the previous panels.
Ce type de panneaux d'affichage est une évolution certaine par rapport aux panneaux d'affichage fixes recevant des affiches collées, mais il ne donne pas satisfaction pour plusieurs raisons.This type of display panels is a definite development compared to fixed display panels receiving glued posters, but it is not satisfactory for several reasons.
La raison principale est le manque de souplesse de ce type de panneaux d'affichage. En effet, il est nécessaire de réaliser un film avec une succession d'affiches, dans un ordre donné, et ces affiches seront présentées dans cet ordre, soit dans un sens, soit dans l'autre, mais obligatoirement les unes à la suite des autres.The main reason is the inflexibility of this type of display panels. Indeed, it is necessary to make a film with a succession of posters, in a given order, and these posters will be presented in this order, either in one direction or in the other, but necessarily one after the other. other.
De plus, le passage d'une affiche à l'autre peut être étudié pour un sens de défilement mais par contre, le passage peut s'avérer très désagréable à la vue dans le sens inverse.In addition, the passage from one poster to another can be studied for a direction of scrolling, but on the other hand, the passage can be very unpleasant to the view in the opposite direction.
Il y a également une raison de coût car il est nécessaire de sérigraphier la totalité d'un film sans aucune possibilité d'intercaler une affiche entre deux, si bien que la programmation doit être parfaitement pré-établie et les films réalisés à la demande. Aussi, le pilotage s'effectue uniquement par une temporisation qui maintient visible dans la fenêtre une affiche durant une période donnée.There is also a cost reason since it is necessary to screen-print the entire film. without any possibility of inserting a poster between two, so that the programming must be perfectly pre-established and the films made on demand. Also, the control is carried out only by a time delay which keeps a poster visible in the window during a given period.
L'utilisation de tels dispositifs d'affichage présente également des inconvénients car le changement d'affiche reste long et difficile.The use of such display devices also has drawbacks because the change of poster remains long and difficult.
D'autres dispositifs proposent des rouleaux avec un film support indémontable tendu entre les rouleaux, dans le bâti d'affichage. L'affiche étant constituée de plusieurs morceaux disposés dans des logements transparents ménagés dans le film, il convient de les introduire une par une dans les logements correspondants à la façon d'un puzzle.Other devices provide rollers with a non-removable support film stretched between the rollers in the display frame. The poster being made up of several pieces arranged in transparent housings formed in the film, they should be introduced one by one into the corresponding housings in the manner of a puzzle.
Lorsqu'il s'agit d'affiches de quatre mètres par trois mètres, il faut installer huit affiches de un mètre par un mètre cinquante, dans le film support suivant les normes actuellement en vigueur. On comprend dès lors que le changement d'affiche est long et délicat, faisant intervenir généralement deux personnes simultanément pendant des durées longues.In the case of posters of four meters by three meters, eight posters of one meter by one meter fifty must be installed in the support film according to the standards currently in force. It is therefore understandable that the change of poster is long and delicate, generally involving two people simultaneously for long periods of time.
Il est clair par ailleurs que durant ces longues périodes de changement, le dispositif d'affichage est immobilisé donc inutilisable et non rentable.It is also clear that during these long periods of change, the display device is immobilized, therefore unusable and unprofitable.
Cette opération de changement est rendue encore plus fastidieuse dans le cas de panneaux d'affichage disposés en hauteur, sur des poteaux en pleine ville et lorsque les conditions climatiques deviennent mauvaises.This change operation is made even more tedious in the case of display panels arranged at height, on poles in the city and when the weather conditions become bad.
Tout pilotage à distance d'un tel dispositif d'affichage est également rendu impossible dans le sens où l'ordre de passage des affiches est pré-établi et dans le sens où toute modification impose des durées d'immobilisation importantes.Any remote control of such a display device is also made impossible in the direction where the order of the posters is pre-established and in the sense that any modification imposes significant downtime.
Il se trouve que le marché de la publicité et de la communication requiert une grande souplesse d'utilisation et il peut être intéressant de pouvoir modifier l'ordre de passage des différentes informations, de modifier l'une des informations sans modifier les autres, ou tout simplement de supprimer le passage de l'une des informations tout en maintenant l'affichage des autres.It turns out that the advertising and communication market requires a great flexibility of use and it can be interesting to be able to modify the order of passage of the different information, to modify one of the information without modifying the others, or simply delete the passage of one of the information while maintaining the display of the others.
Dans les rencontres sportives, par exemple, il peut devenir nécessaire d'augmenter la durée de passage des affiches d'un annonceur à sa demande en fonction de l'audience que reçoit la retransmission télévisée d'une telle manifestation. Ceci est actuellement impossible avec les dispositifs existants.In sports meetings, for example, it may become necessary to increase the duration of the passage of the posters of an advertiser at his request depending on the audience received by the televised broadcast of such an event. This is currently impossible with existing devices.
Il est également nécessaire de remarquer que les salles sont, pour des besoins de rentabilité, de plus en plus polyvalentes et les différentes manifestations se suivent très rapidement et peuvent être de types totalement différents, ce qui nécessite des changements rapides des affiches à diffuser.It is also necessary to note that the rooms are, for the sake of profitability, more and more versatile and the different events follow one another very quickly and can be of totally different types, which requires rapid changes of the posters to be broadcast.
Lors de certaines manifestations sportives, il est également possible d'avoir des prolongations de la durée de la rencontre ou bien des événements qui décalent la diffusion des messages publicitaires ou d'informations si bien que dans les systèmes préalablement établis, il est souvent difficile de modifier la programmation.During certain sports events, it is also possible to have extensions of the duration of the match or even events which delay the dissemination of advertising messages or information so that in previously established systems, it is often difficult to modify the programming.
De même, il existe un type d'informations publicitaires qui consiste à faire circuler des véhicules soir lesquels sont disposés des panneaux d'affichage fixes sur lesquels sont collées des affiches. Un tel système n'est pas souple d'utilisation puisque que tout changement d'affiche impose un retour au siège pour décoller et recoller une affiche, tandis que des systèmes automatiques à film déroulant ainsi que cela a été évoqué ci-avant conservent tous les inconvénients d'exploitation précédemment exprimés, qu'ils soient sur poteau ou sur un véhicule.Likewise, there is a type of advertising information which consists in circulating vehicles on which fixed display panels are placed on which posters are pasted. Such a system is not flexible to use since any change of poster requires a return to the seat to take off and pick up a poster, while automatic systems with scrolling film as has been mentioned above retain all the operating disadvantages previously expressed, whether on a pole or on a vehicle.
La présente invention propose un dispositif d'affichage d'informations, notamment publicitaires, qui est d'une grande souplesse d'utilisation, dont la programmation pré-établie peut être modifiée instantanément, dont l'ordre de passage des panneaux d'affichage peut être modifié, qui peut recevoir un panneau supplémentaire ou recevoir tout un ensemble de nouveaux panneaux, qui peut être piloté de façon manuelle, ou par une programmation interne ou bien encore à distance, qui peut recevoir plusieurs modules juxtaposés afin de réaliser une affiche de très grande largeur, qui est d'un coût peu élevé, tant pour l'entretien du dispositif proprement dit que pour l'exploitation dudit dispositif, qui est d'un faible encombrement autorisant ainsi son transport sur une unité mobile ou son montage sur poteaux à endroits fixes ou bien encore sur une unité déplaçable manuellement par roulage sur le sol.The present invention provides a device for displaying information, in particular advertising, which is very flexible in use, the pre-established programming of which can be modified instantly, the order of passage of which the display panels can be modified, which can receive an additional panel or receive a whole set of new panels, which can be controlled manually, or by internal programming or even remotely, which can receive several modules juxtaposed in order to produce a poster of very large width, which is of low cost, both for the maintenance of the device itself and for the operation of said device, which is of small size thus allowing its transport on a mobile unit or its mounting on poles fixed locations or even on a unit that can be moved manually by rolling on the ground.
A cette fin, le dispositif d'affichage d'informations notamment publicitaires selon l'invention se caractérise en ce qu'il comprend un bâti support muni d'une fenêtre d'affichage, un magasin comprenant au moins deux panneaux support d'informations, des moyens de sélection et de préhension de l'un desdits panneaux et des moyens de transfert de ce panneau au droit de la fenêtre d'affichage.To this end, the device for displaying information, in particular advertising information, according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises a support frame provided with a display window, a store comprising at least two information support panels, means for selecting and gripping one of said panels and means for transferring this panel to the right of the display window.

Selon une mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, les moyens de préhension comprennent des électro-aimants répartis sur une même ligne, parallèle à l'axe de rotation des rouleaux, le noyauplongeur de ces électro-aimants constituant les moyens de préhension proprement dits du panneau et les index comprenant au moins deux languettes en saillie sur le bord supérieur de chaque panneau, munies chacune d'un trou destiné à coopérer avec l'extrémité du noyau-plongeur de l'électro-aimant en vis à vis.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the gripping means comprise electromagnets distributed on the same line, parallel to the axis of rotation of the rollers, the plunger core of these electromagnets constituting the gripping means proper of the panel and the indexes comprising at least two tabs projecting from the upper edge of each panel, each provided with a hole intended to cooperate with the end of the plunger core of the electromagnet opposite.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention le bâti est sensiblement parallélépipédique, de largeur et de hauteur correspondant sensiblement à celles du panneau à afficher et de faible profondeur correspondant sensiblement au diamètre des rouleaux augmenté de l'épaisseur du magasin qui est disposé sur la face arrière, opposée à la face comprenant la fenêtre d'affichage.According to another characteristic of the invention, the frame is substantially parallelepiped, of width and height corresponding substantially to those of the panel to be displayed and of shallow depth corresponding substantially to the diameter of the rollers increased by the thickness of the magazine which is disposed on the face rear, opposite the face comprising the display window.
Selon une autre caractéristique le bâti comprend une unité de pilotage des moyens de sélection, de préhension et de transfert.According to another characteristic, the frame comprises a unit for controlling selection, gripping and transfer means.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le magasin est une cassette amovible comprenant une mémoire programmée pour l'ordre et la durée de passage des panneaux qu'elle contient ainsi que des connections permettant de décharger le contenu de la mémoire programmée de la cassette vers l'unité de pilotage.According to another characteristic of the invention, the magazine is a removable cassette comprising a memory programmed for the order and the duration of passage of the panels which it contains as well as connections making it possible to unload the contents of the programmed memory of the cassette. towards the control unit.
Par ailleurs, les modules sont également juxtaposables et connectables suivant l'axe longitudinal, de façon à réaliser un affichage en grande largeur.Furthermore, the modules are also juxtaposed and connectable along the longitudinal axis, so as to produce a large-width display.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, le bâti est incliné sur l'arrière de façon à permettre le décrochage et l'empilement automatique des panneaux par simple gravité.According to a particular embodiment, the frame is inclined at the rear so as to allow the panels to be detached and automatically stacked by simple gravity.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier le panneau comprend une plaque supportant les index, déformable de façon à épouser le rayon de courbure des rouleaux, sur laquelle est rapportée l'information proprement dite.According to a particular embodiment, the panel comprises a plate supporting the indexes, deformable so as to match the radius of curvature of the rollers, to which the information proper is related.

Sur la figure 1 on a représenté un dispositif d'affichage selon l'invention, qui comprend un bâti 10 une fenêtre d'affichage 12, des moyens de transfert 14 et un magasin 16.FIG. 1 shows a display device according to the invention, which comprises a
Le bâti 10 est représenté sur la figure 2, vu de face avec un arrachement partiel. On peut considérer que ce bâti a une forme sensiblement parallélépipédique de grande largeur et de grande hauteur mais de faible profondeur.The
Par ailleurs, le bâti 10 comprend un pied 18 solidaire de la partie parallélépipédique orientée vers l'arrière de façon à conférer à l'ensemble du bâti une certaine stabilité compte tenu que le parallélépipède est légèrement incliné sur l'arrière.Furthermore, the
De plus, des roues 20 sont intégrées dans le pied 18 de façon à permettre un déplacement de l'ensemble du dispositif d'affichage.In addition,
La fenêtre 12 d'affichage a une largeur sensiblement égale à celle du parallélépipède, à l'épaisseur près du carter enveloppant le parallélépipède et déterminant la fenêtre d'affichage 12.The
Cette fenêtre d'affichage 12 est orientée vers l'avant du dispositif et elle est délimitée par un bandeau supérieur 22 et un bandeau inférieur 24 destinés à masquer les moyens de transfert 14 qui seront décrits ultérieurement.This
Sur la figure 2, on a représenté une vue de face du dispositif avec un arrachement partiel.In Figure 2, there is shown a front view of the device with a partial cutaway.
La fenêtre d'affichage 12 comprend une paroi frontale transparente 26 fixée par rapport au bâti, plus particulièrement par rapport au bandeau supérieur 22 et au bandeau inférieur 24 de façon à assurer une protection et une étanchéité de l'intérieur du bâti et des organes qu'il contient.The
Le dispositif de transfert 14 des panneaux 28 comprend un système mécanique de transfert 30 des moyens de préhension 32 et des moyens de sélection 34.The
Ainsi que cela est représenté en détail sur la figure 6, les moyens de préhension 32 sont constitués par l'extrémité du noyeau-plongeur d'un vérin électro-magnétique 36 comportant un électro-aimant 38.As shown in detail in FIG. 6, the gripping means 32 consist of the end of the plunger core of an
L'excitation de cet électro-aimant 38 provoque le déplacement du moyen de préhension 32, en l'occurrence le plongeur, dans le sens indiqué par la flèche 40. Ce vérin 36 est fixé directement sur une barrette support 41, solidaire d'une bande 42 en boucle fermée montée autour de deux poulies 44 crantées, entraînées en rotation par un arbre 46, l'ensemble des systèmes mécaniques 30 supérieur et inférieur, étant synchronisé par une courroie crantée 48 coopérant avec les poulies et solidaire de ladite bande.The excitation of this
La motorisation en elle-même n'a pas été indiquée car elle est connue de l'homme de l'art et peut être disposée entre les poulies 44 supérieure et inférieure.The motorization in itself has not been indicated because it is known to those skilled in the art and can be arranged between the upper and
Il est également prévu sur les courroies crantées des éléments presseurs 50, du type lames de ressort par exemple.It is also provided on the notched belts of the
Sur les côtés, des flasques 52 solidaires du carter assurent simultanément le guidage de la bande en boucle fermée 42 sur sa partie latérale masquée par le bandeau supérieur 22 tout en assurant un rôle de palier pour l'arbre 46, et en maintenant le panneau plaqué sur la bande.On the sides,
Par ailleurs l'alésage servant de palier à l'intérieur du flasque est débouchant et le carter latéral est également prévu avec un trou en vis à vis de l'alésage du flasque et muni d'un cache amovible.Furthermore, the bore serving as a bearing inside the flange opens out and the lateral casing is also provided with a hole opposite the bore of the flange and provided with a removable cover.
La réserve 16 est représentée en détail en vue partielle sur la figure 5. Elle comprend un carter 54, dans lequel sont disposés des panneaux 28, parallèles les uns aux autres et munis de languettes 56 respectivement A, B et C pour les trois panneaux représentés, ces languettes étant à des distances variables des bords, les panneaux étant alignés.The
Chaque languette dépassante est munie d'un trou 58 à sa partie supérieure, c'est-à-dire au-dessus du panneau proprement dit.Each protruding tongue is provided with a
Par ailleurs, cette cassette est munie d'une mémoire 60 et d'une broche 62 destinée à venir se connecter avec une broche correspondante, non représentée, solidaire du bâti du dispositif d'affichage.Furthermore, this cassette is provided with a
Ces panneaux sont orientés de façon que les languettes soient en position haute.These panels are oriented so that the tabs are in the high position.
Le bâti du dispositif d'affichage selon l'invention comprend un pied 18 orienté vers l'arrière et assurant la stabilité de l'ensemble ainsi que cela est représenté en détail sur la figure 3.The frame of the display device according to the invention comprises a
A l'intérieur de ce pied 18, il est prévu une unité 64 de pilotage des moyens de sélection, de préhension et de transfert, cette unité de pilotage étant alimentée par les informations contenues dans la mémoire 60 grâce à la broche de liaison 62 de la cassette.Inside this
Le fonctionnement du dispositif est décrit ci-après.The operation of the device is described below.
L'utilisateur positionne un module du dispositif d'affichage selon l'invention, ainsi qu'il vient d'être décrit, à l'endroit où il souhaite faire apparaître les informations représentées sur les panneaux d'affichage 28.The user positions a module of the display device according to the invention, as has just been described, at the place where he wishes to display the information represented on the
Une cassette 54, comprend différents panneaux 28, 28 A, 28 B, 28 C, qui sont disposés dans un ordre quelconque dans la cassette, la languette étant orientée vers le haut et la face comportant les informations étant orientée vers l'arrière du dispositif.A
La mémoire 60 de la cassette à été programmée avec les temps de passage des panneaux et l'ordre de passage de ceux-ci. Dès que la cassette est connectée sur le bâti 10, les informations contenues dans la mémoire 60 sont transférées, grâce à la broche 62, dans l'unité de pilotage 64.The
L'unité de pilotage 64 a donc en mémoire les "tops" de passage, les durées de passage et les coordonnées des panneaux à faire passer.The
A un instant donné t, il est prévu l'affichage du panneau A. Dès lors, l'électro-aimant 38 du vérin 36 A, c'est-a-dire du vérin disposé en face de la languette A est alimenté de façon que le plongeur faisant office de support fasse saillie hors du corps du vérin 36 et le plongeur passe à travers le trou 58 de la languette 56 A. L'unité de pilotage 64 commande alors la mise en marche de la motorisation de façon à mettre en rotation les poulies 44 qui elles-mêmes entraînent la courroie crantée 48, qui elle-même entraîne la bande support 42 sur laquelle sont rapportés les vérins 36. L'affiche A est donc extraite de la réserve 54 et la languette, montée souple par rapport au panneau, est entraînée et se courbe de façon à suivre le profil de la bande 42 en boucle fermée, la languette étant plaquée et maintenu par l'intérieur du bandeau 22, de façon que la languette ne "saute" pas de l'extrémité du plongeur des moyens de préhension 32. De façon à limiter également le décrochage, l'extrémité de la tête du plongeur, est légèrement aplatie de façon à lui conférer un pouvoir de blocage.At a given time t , the display of panel A is provided . Consequently, the
En effet, dès que la bande 42 a été mise en rotation, l'alimentation électrique de l'électro-aimant 38, du vérin 36 est coupée de façon que le plongeur se rétracte par rapport au corps du vérin.In fact, as soon as the
La languette étant entraînée, le panneau semirigide se courbe à son tour et suit le profil de la bande 42 et dès que le panneau amorce la descente dans la fenêtre d'affichage 12, il est plaqué contre la paroi de protection extérieure transparente 26 par les ressorts des éléments de plaquage 50.The tongue being driven, the semi-rigid panel bends in turn and follows the profile of the
Dès que le système support et la languette sont masqués par le bandeau inférieur 24, l'unité de pilotage arrête la motorisation, si bien que la face du panneau A portant les informations est parfaitement positionnée dans la fenêtre d'affichage 12.As soon as the support system and the tongue are hidden by the
Une fois la durée d'exposition du panneau A écoulée, l'unité de pilotage alimente à nouveau la motorisation pour provoquer la préhension du panneau B par une deuxième série de vérins 36, et simultanément le panneau A est ramené dans sa position initiale.Once the exposure time of panel A has elapsed, the control unit supplies power again to the motorization to cause the gripping of panel B by a second series of
Durant la rotation en partie inférieure, la languette est maintenue par le bandeau 24 sur les moyens de préhension 32, la languette étant, après sa rotation, maintenue par gravité, le panneau exerçant par son propre poids une traction vers le bas.During the rotation in the lower part, the tongue is held by the
Lorsque le panneau est au droit de la réserve, compte tenu de l'inclinaison du bâti, la partie inférieure du panneau vient se loger dans la réserve. Il suffit alors d'exciter l'électro-aimant du vérin 36 pour que la languette se décroche des moyens de préhension 32. Le panneau, de rigidité suffisante, vient se plaquer sur le panneau C restant dans la réserve. Durant cette phase, le panneau B a été disposé au droit de la fenêtre d'affichage 12 et il subsiste pendant la durée programmée.When the panel is in line with the reserve, taking into account the inclination of the frame, the lower part of the panel is housed in the reserve. It then suffices to excite the electromagnet of the
L'unité de pilotage provoque ainsi l'affichage des différents panneaux aux différents instants et pour les durées établies.The control unit thus causes the display of the various panels at the different times and for the established durations.
La programmation peut être prévue pour que, après le panneau B, le panneau C apparaisse, mais il est également possible après le panneau C de faire apparaître directement le panneau A. En effet, l'ordre chronologique de passage est indifférent puisque les vérins peuvent accrocher les languettes en vis à vis. Il suffit donc de programmer le mouvement du vérin correspondant aux languettes du panneau que l'on souhaite voir afficher, l'ordre de passage ou l'ordre de remise en place des panneaux dans la réserve n'étant pas lié l'un à l'autre.Programming can be provided so that, after panel B , panel C appears, but it is also possible after panel C to have panel A appear directly. Indeed, the chronological order of passage is indifferent since the jacks can hang the tabs opposite. It is therefore sufficient to program the movement of the jack corresponding to the tabs of the panel that one wishes to see displayed, the order of passage or the order of replacement of the panels in the reserve not being linked to one another.
L'utilisateur peut également changer quasiment instantanément les panneaux d'affichage. Il lui suffit pour cela de préparer une cassette et de mettre dans la mémoire 60 les informations nécessaires, puis de substituer la seconde cassette à la première, les informations transmises à l'unité de pilotage par la première cassette étant effacées et remplacées par les informations contenues dans la mémoire 60 de la seconde cassette.The user can also change display panels almost instantly. It suffices for this to prepare a cassette and to put in the
L'utilisation qui vient d'être décrite l'a été dans le cadre d'une unité autonome, mais il est également possible de piloter à distance l'ordre de passage des panneaux.The use which has just been described has been in the context of an autonomous unit, but it is also possible to remotely control the order of passage of the panels.
Dans ce cas, la cassette ne comporte pas de mémoire et l'unité de pilotage 64 est reliée soit par une liaison radio, soit par câble à un poste de commande qui peut être un programme préalablement introduit dans un micro-ordinateur.In this case, the cassette has no memory and the
L'unité de pilotage est alors directement en liaison avec la séquence pré-établie dans le microordinateur, ce qui permet de modifier en temps réel, l'ordre de passage des panneaux, ou bien tout simplement la durée de passage.The control unit is then directly linked to the pre-established sequence in the microcomputer, which makes it possible to modify in real time, the order of passage of the panels, or quite simply the duration of passage.
Si l'utilisateur souhaite rajouter des panneaux publicitaires, il lui suffit d'introduire des panneaux dans la réserve en place, puis de piloter à l'aide du programme du micro-ordinateur l'ordre et la durée de passage de ces nouveaux panneaux par rapport aux autres.If the user wishes to add advertising panels, it suffices to introduce panels into the reserve in place, then to control using the program of the microcomputer the order and the duration of passage of these new panels by compared to others.
La description qui a été faite préalablement concerne un module de dispositif d'affichage mais il est également possible de juxtaposer plusieurs modules de façon à obtenir des panneaux de très grande largeur. Dans ce cas, les caches disposés sur les carters latéraux sont retirés, des pièces de liaison sont introduites de façon à relier entre eux les arbres 46 des différents modules, qui ne constituent plus alors qu'un dispositif d'affichage unique comprenant plusieurs modules.The description which was made previously relates to a display device module but it it is also possible to juxtapose several modules so as to obtain very large panels. In this case, the covers arranged on the lateral casings are removed, connecting pieces are introduced so as to connect the
Il suffit d'adapter l'ordre de passage des panneaux, la synchronisation étant obtenue par la liaison mécanique des arbres de mise en rotation. De nombreuses variantes découlent directement de l'invention.It suffices to adapt the order of passage of the panels, synchronization being obtained by the mechanical connection of the rotation shafts. Many variants flow directly from the invention.
C'est ainsi que le système de sélection et de préhension avec vérin, languettes et trous peut être remplacé par des simples languettes et des moyens de préhension à pinces.This is how the selection and gripping system with jack, tongues and holes can be replaced by simple tongues and gripping means with pliers.
De même, les moyens de préhension c'est-à-dire le plongeur peut être lui-même un électro-aimant sur lequel la languette recouverte d'une pellicule métallique pourrait venir se plaquer par des forces magnétiques.Similarly, the gripping means, that is to say the plunger may itself be an electromagnet on which the tongue covered with a metallic film could come to be pressed by magnetic forces.
Quant au dispositif de motorisation et de mise en rotation entre deux rouleaux, on peut imaginer des rouleaux pleins avec moteur intérieur, des rouleaux à barreaux, des pignons avec chaîne ou tout autre mode de transfert qui reste à la portée de l'homme de l'art.As for the motorization and rotation device between two rollers, one can imagine full rollers with an internal motor, rollers with bars, sprockets with chain or any other mode of transfer which remains within the reach of man of the 'art.
De même, le bâti peut être modifié, notamment son inclinaison, ou encore son aspect extérieur général.Likewise, the frame can be modified, in particular its inclination, or even its general external appearance.
Un tel dispositif d'affichage peut être monté sur poteaux, pour un affichage en ville par exemple, ou bien installé sur un véhicule pour l'affichage urbain mobile.Such a display device can be mounted on poles, for display in the city for example, or well installed on a vehicle for mobile urban display.
Quant aux matériaux permettant de réaliser le bâti, le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention prévoit l'utilisation de matériaux composites ou plus généralement de matériaux plastiques qui autorisent par moulage la fabrication d'éléments de grandes précision, tandis que les différentes façades transparentes, les panneaux et la bande des moyens de transfert sont prévus dans des matériaux adéquats tels que du polycarbonate, des feuilles plastifiées pour les panneaux et un film plastique transparent pour la bande en boucle fermée.As for the materials used to make the frame, the preferred embodiment of the invention provides for the use of composite materials or more generally of plastic materials which allow by molding the manufacture of high precision elements, while the different transparent facades , the panels and the band of the transfer means are provided in suitable materials such as polycarbonate, plasticized sheets for the panels and a transparent plastic film for the band in closed loop.
La réalisation des panneaux peut avantageusement être effectuée à partir de feuilles plastiques dont les bords latéraux sont rigidifiés par un ruban métallique, légèrement cintré transversalement, équivalent au mètre ruban, de façon à assurer une rigidité du panneau suffisante lorsqu'il est en position verticale tout en permettant une courbure aisée dès que l'amorce de courbure est effectuée.The production of the panels can advantageously be carried out from plastic sheets, the lateral edges of which are stiffened by a metal tape, slightly bent transversely, equivalent to the measuring tape, so as to ensure sufficient rigidity of the panel when it is in the vertical position while allowing easy bending as soon as the bending begins.
Le système peut être rendu lumineux grâce à des néons par exemple, disposé derrière les panneaux.The system can be made bright thanks to neon lights, for example, placed behind the panels.
De même les moyens d'accrochage peuvent consister en un ergot escamotable, un ballonnet gonflable, ou un mandrin expansible, disposés à l'extrémité d'une tige mobile, ces divers moyens coopérant avec les trous des languettes des panneaux.Similarly, the attachment means may consist of a retractable lug, an inflatable balloon, or an expandable mandrel, arranged at the end of a movable rod, these various means cooperating with the holes in the tabs of the panels.
