Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bracelet with a display.
  • Advertising media that actively spread their message with the help of technical devices and this naturally attracts more attention than those that act purely passive are, according to the prior art, ever larger apparatuses, such as electronic tickers, electronically operated scoreboards or automatically changing poster carriers.
  • a bracelet with a display that resembles a watch dial Has display area solved which is characterized in that it provides illuminants in the watch dial-like display area that do not contain the Perform the function of a clock display.
  • illuminants here can be used that do not need their own energy supply, such as luminous surfaces or but those that need a supply of energy, e.g. LEDs or smaller ones Lights or the like.
  • the geometric dimensions of the lamps can be customized can be adapted cheaply for the respective purpose.
  • the actual bracelet (This means the bracelet in the narrower sense, i.e. the fastening strap itself) can be carried out approximately 4 cm wide, similar to a watch strap.
  • the bracelet can be made of plastic, textiles, leather or any other suitable material be made. It can preferably be printed or with a film that serves as a motif support serves a specific aesthetic design.
  • the real thing The bracelet can be made in one piece from the watch dial-like display area is passed by, as well as two pieces that are articulated to the display area will exist. Preferably, there are six individual lamps in the invention Bracelet use.
  • Control electronics are preferably provided for controlling the lighting means that it allows the lamps to be switched individually or together or to be regulated.
  • a such control electronics can be a discrete circuit implemented solely by hardware; but it can also be a more programmable module, preferably a microprocessor or act as a microcontroller, in which the control of the lamps by the software controlling it is carried out. Mixed forms are also possible here.
  • the Control electronics is preferably on its own component carrier, which is made of plastic can be made housed. It can, but does not have to be made of the same material a cover of the display area possibly located above it.
  • This carrier is preferably provided with an approximately flat top, which serves as a bottom surface Recording of a flat information carrier to be fastened thereon, for example a film or The same can serve.
  • the size of the entire clock face-like display area is preferably about 50 x 40 mm with a preferred height of about 10 mm.
  • the display bracelet is according to the present Invention characterized in that a (preferably exchangeable) visual information carrier, such as a printed sheet or a printed film or disc which is able to cover the display area, which is similar to a clock face and in addition, recesses adapted approximately to the position and size of the lamps or has transparent areas, so that the lamps in the state of Coverage of the clock-like display area by the information carrier are able to develop their luminous effect visibly for the viewer.
  • a representation that corresponds to the respective purpose, for example as a fan article of a football club or a music group is adapted without the technical functionality or the technical structure of the invention Device would have to be changed.
  • the actual wristbands can of course also be used in the display area, which is similar to a watch dial their design can be tailored to the respective motif.
  • the bracelet with display is according to the present Invention, characterized in that the illuminants over the plane of the clock dial-like Stand out display area and the visual information carrier Has recesses that are adapted approximately to the position and size of the lamps are so that the lamps in the state of the cover of the watch dial-like Display area through the information carrier in the recesses of the information carrier intervention.
  • the technical attachment of the respective information carrier in the clock face-like Display area particularly easy to carry out.
  • the one for each use Tailored information carriers, for example with a suitable logo is only placed on the bulbs that engage in it and so laterally Give hold.
  • the hold can be achieved vertically by the information carrier being off a softer material than the illuminant (as is the case with cardboard in Ratio to LEDs made of plastic would be the case) and the recesses in the Information carriers are slightly smaller than this for a fit intervention of the Bulbs would be required.
  • the information carrier can then on the Illuminants are pressed on, as this is softer in relation to the illuminants Material squeezed a little when pressed and thus also against a vertical one Slipping is secured due to the crushing.
  • control electronics control the lamps so that the eye of the Viewer has an illusion of moving images, such as with a running light. But also flashing light effects or all other effects that can be achieved by controlling the illuminants are possible.
  • the control can preferably also be designed such that the lamps follow switched or regulated at random.
  • a display bracelet is characterized in that the control electronics which control the illuminants a switch or button, preferably a sensor button, which has the electronics is able to switch on and / or switch off.
  • This switch or button is preferably located on the top cover of the clock-like display area. He but can also be at any other technically feasible point, in particular also where there is usually the crown for setting the time on a wristwatch, namely arranged on the side in the middle.
  • the clock face-like display area is above a cover covered in a clear material. It can be any material act as long as it is transparent and the display area underneath is still recognizable is. In this context, such a display area is still recognizable viewed, the recognizability of which is limited to the fact that only the illuminating Illuminants can be seen through the material.
  • One such device is This makes sense, for example, when the lamps are arranged by their arrangement when they light up produce a certain visual impression, preferably a logo. to shine the bulbs are not on, you can only see the surface of the lamp in this state opaque material, however, if they light up, they become Illuminants visible through the actually transparent cover material and call the wanted optical effect in the viewer.
  • the transparent Material can also be selected in color to achieve certain color effects; this of course also regardless of the fact that the lamps in any embodiment of the present Invention itself can also be selected in color and therefore possibly Light different Radiate wavelength, as certain LEDs do.
  • a preferred embodiment according to the present invention is characterized in that that the transparent cover is formed in one piece so that it also forms a lateral boundary of the display area in the manner of a housing.
  • the transparent cover plate consists of a crystal-clear plastic, such as about polycarbonate.
  • the cover can then be injection molded become.
  • glass or other transparent materials can also be used for production be used.
  • the bracelet according to the present invention is an easy to manufacture advertising medium which is able due to its technical equipment with lamps to attract special attention. It can be used as a so-called cult object at music events Find use, for example by animated swiveling back and forth Arms to which the bracelet of the present invention was previously applied. But the bracelet according to the invention is also outstanding as a fan article for sports events suitable. It can also be used in discotheques, especially here black light reflecting materials are used to achieve special effects can.
  • a bracelet according to the present invention can be made for a few pfennigs the effect of the attached logos with their certain image and their separate protection, however, can be resold for a relatively high price.
