Definitions

  • the subject of the invention is a multi-purpose rotating communication device which contains a firmly fixed supporting frame, an information-carrying unit connected to the supporting frame in such a way that it is able to rotate, a propulsion unit inserted between the supporting frame and the information-carrying unit, and furthermore, a central unit for the control of the operation of the propulsion unit, the propulsion unit has a driving part-unit, and a drive transfer structure connected to the driving part-unit, the supporting frame has a cable channel, the driving part-unit is connected to the central unit with the help of the connection cables situated in the cable channel.
  • Such solutions also include advertising boards that have a rotating appearance surface, the point of which is that the carrying surface containing the information to be expressed is connected to the supporting frame so that it rotates as the result of a force supplied by a propulsion unit connected to some sort of auxiliary power supply.
  • a propulsion unit connected to some sort of auxiliary power supply.
  • Another disadvantage is that monotone movement of the small (as compared to the carrying frame) information-carrying unit reduces the startling aspect of the sight, which with time can lead to the further reduction in the efficiency of the advertising.
  • Another unfavourable aspect is that the changing of the information-carrying unit or text that is to appear is difficult, and there is no way what so ever to subsequently increase or modify the appearance surfaces, or the costs make its realisation unfeasible.
  • the solution according to the invention lead to the recognition that if the supporting frame is selected properly, and to that - differently to what is known - several independent display members, and the propulsion units operating them are attached, furthermore, the propulsion units are individually fitted between the supporting frame and the parts of the information-carrying unit, then the task can be solved.
  • the multi-purpose rotating communication device which contains a correctly fixed supporting frame, an information-carrying unit connected to the supporting frame in such a way that it is able to rotate, a propulsion unit inserted between the supporting frame and the information-carrying unit, and furthermore, a central unit for the control of the operation of the propulsion unit, the propulsion unit has a driving part-unit, and a drive transfer structure connected to the driving part-unit, the supporting frame has a cable channel, the driving part-unit is connected to the central unit with the help of the connection cables situated in the cable channel - is formed in such a way that the information-carrying unit is constructed of two or more sets of display members that can move independently, at least some of the display members have independent propulsion units attached, which are separately connected to the central unit.
  • a further criterion of the multi-purpose rotating communication device may be that the display members are regular bodies, e.g. rectangular prisms, cylinders that have internal hollows, and the supporting frame leads through the internal hollows of at least some of the display members.
  • a constructed form of the invention is that the supporting frame is a single column.
  • the longitudinal axes of the display members and the longitudinal axis of the column are coaxial.
  • the propulsion units of the individual display members are situated in the internal hollow of the given display member.
  • the driving part-unit of the propulsion unit is fixed to the supporting frame, the movement transfer structure contains a movement transfer body connected to the display member and the other movement transfer body fitted between the one movement transfer body and the driving part-unit.
  • the one movement transfer body and the other movement transfer body are a friction wheel pair.
  • a yet another version of the rotating communication device is when one or more light sources are situated near to the display members and/or one or more illuminating bodies are situated inside the internal hollow of the display members.
  • the display members contain a rotating frame constructed from frame elements and surface forming elements fined to the rotating frame.
  • the multi-purpose rotating communication device has numerous favourable characteristics. The most important of these is that due to the number and positioning of the display members and the propulsion units it is possible for the elements of the information-carrying unit to rotate independently o each other in both directions, which provides a continually changing, permanently moving overall effect and so greatly increases the startling aspect of the sight, which better attracts the eyes of the viewer, and so creates an advertising possibility operating with significantly greater efficiency.
  • Another advantage is that due to the structural form the number of the display members forming the information-carrying unit can be changed as required, their order may be changed, and individual display members may be replaced with display members with other forms. This feature creates the possibility that it is always possible to position surface creating elements of the required size onto a supporting frame installed at a given place, and so the number of display members and together with this the complete surface of the information-carrying unit is always optimal.
  • Another favourable aspect is that in the new construction as a result of the positioning of the propulsion unit in the new construction there is no need for the energy and the signals controlling the operation to be conducted through slip rings; which makes the driving of the display members simpler and more secure, and also reduces the possibility of breakdown.
  • Another advantage is that in the case of a supporting frame in the form of a column beside the small space requirement it is possible to create and utilise extensive, appropriately split-up advertising surfaces, which results in more favourable operating costs than is usual.
  • FIG. 1 On diagram 1 a version of the multi-purpose rotating communication device according to the invention can be seen where the supporting frame 10 is formed by a column 11 of uniform strength consisting of one piece. Inside the column 11 there is a cable channel 12 formed stretching along its longitudinal axis 11a. At the end of the cable channel 12 of the column 11 near the ground there is a door 13, with the help of which the cable channel 12 can be accessed. Display members 21, 22, 23 of different forms and sizes are positioned underneath one another on the column 11, which together form the information-carrying unit 20.
  • display member 21 is in this case a square based prism
  • display member 22 is an equilateral triangle based prism
  • display member 23 is two truncated hexagonal based pyramids turned together at their bases.
  • the column 11 actually pierces through the display members 21, 22, and 23 and partly passes through their internal hollows 21a, 22a and 23a
  • the longitudinal main axis 21b of the display member 21, the longitudinal main axis 22b of the display member 22 and the longitudinal main axis 23b of the display member 23 are coaxial with the longitudinal axis 11a of the column 11.
  • All of the display members 21, 22 and 23 consist of a rotating frame 60 constructed from frame elements 61, and furthermore, surface forming elements 62 fixed to the frame elements 61.
  • the frame elements 61 and the surface forming elements 62 surround the internal hollow 21a of the display member 21, the internal hollow 22a of the display member 22, and the internal hollow 23a of the display member 23.
  • the propulsion unit 30 is situated in the internal hollow 21a of the display member 21 of the information-carrying unit 20, which consists of the driving part-unit 31 and the movement transfer structure 32.
  • the propulsion unit 31 is preferably an electric motor fixed to the column 11, while one of the movement transfer bodies 32a of the movement transfer structure 32 is fixed to the frame elements 61 of the rotating frame 60, the other movement transfer body 32b is fined in a fixed fashion to the driving part-unit 31.
  • Diagram 2 illustrates a possible structure of the movement transfer structure 32. It is preferable if one of the movement transfer bodies 32a of the movement transfer structure 32 and the other movement transfer body 32b forms a friction wheel pair in which one of the movement transfer bodies 32a is ring-like and connects to the other movement transfer body 32b with its internal surface, which creates the possibility for the driving and driven elements to be slipped with respect to each other and this does not only protect the driving part-unit 31, but also reduces the dynamic loading on the column 11 and the rotating frame 60.
  • the illuminating body 24 is situated in the internal hollow 21a of the display member 21, which is also preferably connected to the supporting frame 10.
  • the number of illuminating bodies 24 can be as many as is required, and their positioning only depends on the form of the display member 21 and its size.
  • the display member 21 does not only have to be illuminated from the inside with an illuminating body 24 positioned in the internal hollow 21a of the display member 21, but can also be illuminated from the outside by light sources 50 fixed to the supporting frame 10.
  • Diagram 1 also shows that the power supply and the control signals from the central unit 40 are taken from the energy source 70 by the connecting cables 41 positioned in the cable channel 12 to the driving part-units 31 of the propulsion units 30 carrying out the rotation of the different display members 21, 22 and 23.
  • the energy source 70 is a source situated a long distance away from the supporting frame 10, but it could even be a battery fixed in the cable channel 12 of the column 11, although due to the larger consumption a mains supply is naturally more favourable. Contrary to the energy source 70 it is favourable to position the central unit 40 in the cable channel of the column 11 near to the door 13, so that it can be programmed as required and so that the results of the programming can be immediately checked.
  • the driving part-unit 31 of the propulsion unit 30 and the other movement transfer body 32b of the movement transfer structure 32 and the bearing 14 suitable for accepting the rotating frame can be fixed to the column 11.
  • the driving pan-unit 31 is to be connected to the central unit 40 and the energy source 70 through the connecting cable 41 and as required one or more illuminating bodies 24 are fixed to the column 11.
  • the rotating frame 60 of the required display member 21 and the surface forming elements 62 fixed to the frame elements 61 of the rotating frame 60 can be fitted to the column 11 with the insertion of the bearing 14, in such a way that the internal hollow 21a of the display member 21 contains both the elements of the propulsion unit 30 and the illuminating body 24.
  • the central unit 40 can be programmed on-site in such a way that the direction of movement, speed, period of movement of the display members 21, 22 and 23 and the flashing time of the illumination bodies 24, and also the illumination period of the light sources 50 can be regulated, and can be preferably different from each other.
  • the driving part-unit 31 of the propulsion 30 belonging to the display member 21 of the multi-purpose rotating communication device receives power, and so as a result of its rotation it rotates the other movement transfer body 32b attached to it, which, in this case, is a small friction disc.
  • the other movement transfer body 32b revolves it moves the large sized ring-like friction wheel which fills the role of the movement transfer body 32a attached to the rotating frame 60.
  • the movement transfer body 32a starts to move it starts to revolve around the longitudinal axis 11a of the column 11, which at the same time is also the longitudinal main axis 21b of the display member, and as it revolves with the help of the rotating frame 60 it spins the display member 21.
  • the display member is revolving - in accordance with the program of the central unit 40 - the illuminating body 24 or the light source 50 may be activated, and so not only the revolving of the display member 21 happens, but its internal or external illumination may also take place.
  • the supporting frame 10 is not a straight column, but a different, spatially gridded structure, in which the display members 21, 22 and 23 are fined to the different grid elements.
  • the display members 21, 22 and 23 starting and stopping at different time points, the flashing lights and the different forms provide a startling and interesting spectacle for the observer, which keeps the attention of the pedestrians for a longer period and with this is more effective at completing its task.
  • the multi-purpose rotating communication device can be used well for advertising purposes, for giving different information, but apart from this it can also be used for the decoration of public areas e.g. shopping centre car parks.
