Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A sign having a triangular display screen is disclosed, the sign having a plurality of adjacent display screens 4
However, the display screen is configured to form an image that can be changed into a second image and a third image by rotating the display screen.

In order to simplify image exchange in this device,
The present invention provides a main body 8 having a fixing part 9 for attaching and detaching at least one screen side part 5 and/or 6 and/or 7 or its holder 12.
The fixing portion 9 constitutes a connecting means 10 for the rotating member 2 that rotates the display screen 4.

The present invention relates to a sign with a triangular display screen in which the display screen 4 forms an image that can be changed into a second and a third image by rotation of the display screen.

Triangular display screens of this type consist of long hollow profile members of triangular cross section. Each side of this hollow profile member is provided with a portion of the image obtained when all sides are turned outward simultaneously.

When changing an image to another image, each new part must be glued to the side of the display screen. This is a time consuming and multiple task in many ways.

The present invention aims to solve this problem. This is achieved according to the invention primarily by imparting the following characteristics to a label of the type described above.

These features make it very easy to change the image and result in a simple marking device requiring only a few parts.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The sign shown in the drawings comprises a frame 1, the bottom of which is provided with a number of drive rotating members 2, and the top with a corresponding number of holders 3. Each rotating member 2 and corresponding holder 3 is suitable for supporting a triangular display screen 4. The rotating member 2 further supports the display screen 4 on its screen sides 5, 6.
Or rotate until one of the numbers 7 faces forward,
The rotating member then rotates the display screen 4 until the other screen side faces forward.

The display screens 4 are attached directly to the screen sides 5, 6 and 7 so that one or more image parts of each display screen 4 can be replaced without the need for rigorous gluing operations outdoors under difficult conditions. It consists of a main body 8 provided with three fixing parts 9 for attaching to the main body 8 via a holder 12 or removing the screen sides from there.
This results in a 1 with a different appearance than the original.
One to obtain one or more other images,
one with two or three screen sides,
This means that two or all three screen sides can be replaced. Image replacement can be done quickly with a simple movement, and the removed screen sides can be reused. Alternatively, the removed screen sides can be provided with new image portions if desired, and this can be done in a suitable environment while new markings are displayed. Due to the series of bodies 8 and the appropriate number of screen sides 5, 6, 7, the image of the sign can be replaced by another image very quickly and with less effort.

In order to provide a simple and convenient main body 8, the fixed part 9
forms in its interior coupling means 10, which means are suitable for accommodating a column 11 so that the display screen 4 participates in the rotation of the rotating member 2.

To simplify the device, the fastening part 9 is formed by a radial projection 13, to which the screen sides 5, 6 or 7 or the holder 12 can be fastened by a snap action. The protruding part 13 has an outer part 13a against which the display screen is brought into contact either directly or via the holder 12, and the outer part has a screen side part 5 and/or 6 and/or 7 on the other screen side. oriented to occupy a predetermined position relative to the section.

The inner part 14 of the radial projection 13 forms a recess for accommodating the accessory column 11 of the rotating member 2 . The radial protrusion 13 of the main body 8 is located at the outer edge 1
7, 18, on the inside of which the screen sides can be engaged by a snap action.

The holder 12 is preferably made of plastic and is provided with two elastic parts 19, 20 for holding the holder in the body 8 by a snapping action. Each elastic part 19, 20 comprises a double arm 21, 22 between which a rib 1 for the display screen is provided.
5, 16, etc. can be engaged by a snap action.

In order to protect the screen sides of simple design and to reinforce them at the same time, said screen sides can be provided with two longitudinal ribs 15, 16 which can be engaged in the body 8 by a snap action. can. These ribs 15, 16 make it possible to fix the display screen to the main body directly or via a holder by means of a snap action.

In order to prevent the display screen from sliding along the body 8 once it is in place, the rotating member 2 is provided with mounting and/or support means 23. This mounting and/or support means 23
allows signs with vertical display screens to be provided with a direct engagement surface for the display screen.

In order to quickly attach the display screen to the rotating member 2 and the upper holder 3, the main body 8 has a circular part 2.
4, this circular part corresponds to the circular part 25 of the upper holder 3 and the rotating member 2.

Sufficient rigidity is imparted to the body 8 such that the radial projection 13 and the circular portion 24 extend along the entire length of the body.

The upper display screen holder 3 is attached to the frame 1
It consists of a support shaft 26 mounted on the support shaft 26, and an outer portion 27 disposed vertically movably on the support shaft. This outer part 27 is preferably cylindrical;
Made of plastic or rubber material. The outer portion 27 preferably increases in thickness downwardly and has a rounded lower end 28. As a result, the display screen is easily engaged to this outer part (the fifth
) and then move it to the vertical position (6th
), and finally remove the circular part 2 of the rotating member from above.
5.

The rotating member 2 is driven by a drive shaft 29 by a conventional drive device.
It can be noted that it is driven through.

As can be seen from the embodiments described above, the sign with a triangular display screen according to the invention allows the holder 12 to be attached with a special tool by snapping the holder 12 into the fixing part 9 of the main body 8. It can be installed quickly without any need for it. Further, since the fixing portion 9 extends over the entire length of the main body 8, the holder 12 can be fixed at any position along the entire length of the main body 8 by a snap action. That is, the holders can be fixed widely spaced apart over the entire length of the main body 8 or close together as required, and can be fixed at regular or irregular intervals along the entire length of the main body 8. be able to.

Each screen side 5, 6, 7 then has a longitudinal rib 15, 16, which allows the holder 1
2 by a snap action, the side parts of the screen can be quickly installed without the need for special tools. Therefore, the rib 1
5, 16 extend over the entire length of the screen sides 5, 6, 7, so that the ribs 15, 16 can be fixed in any position on the main body 8 by means of a snap action on the holder 12. No matter how many or how many there are, they can be securely fixed onto all of the holders 12 by the snap action. Moreover, since the ribs 15, 16 form reinforcement parts for the screen side parts 5, 6, 7, the screen side parts can be made thinner.

The present invention is not limited to the specific examples shown in the drawings, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the present invention. For example, one or two screen sides can be removably attached to the main body and/or the attachment and detachment can be done in other ways than by snapping, tensioning, etc. The number of holders for the display screen can vary depending on the length of the main body,
These holders can also be omitted altogether. The design of the body, rotating member and upper holder may be modified without departing from the scope of the invention.
