Description

MAQUINA PARA EXHIBIR PUBLICIDAD MACHINE TO DISPLAY ADVERTISING
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
La invención se refiere a una máquina para exhibir publicidad, y en concreto a una máquina para exhibir publicidad concebida para su agrupamiento con otras máquinas para exhibir publicidad. El nuevo diseño permite que las máquinas adyacentes se sitúen muy próximas entre sí, a fin de reducir al mínimo los espacios entre material publicitario adyacente. Además, esta invención se refiere a un diseño simplificado de máquina, cuya robustez de estructura es especialmente idónea para su uso en acontecimientos deportivos en que la máquina pueda recibir algún impacto, y resultando fácil el acceso al interior de la máquina, tanto para cambiar el material publicitario como para realizar ajustes y reparaciones.The invention relates to a machine for displaying advertising, and in particular to a machine for displaying advertising designed for grouping with other machines for displaying advertising. The new design allows adjacent machines to be very close to each other, in order to minimize the spaces between adjacent advertising material. In addition, this invention relates to a simplified design of the machine, whose robustness of structure is especially suitable for use in sporting events in which the machine can receive some impact, and resulting easy access to the interior of the machine, both to change the advertising material to make adjustments and repairs.
Son conocidas en la actualidad máquinas publicitarias en donde se envuelve un cuerpo laminar alrededor de un rodillo a modo de pantalla. El material publicitario va impreso o fijado de otra forma al cuerpo laminar, desplazándose éste a través de una ventana de exhibición hacia un rodillo arrollador. Los mensajes publicitarios son avanzados desde el rodillo hasta pararse detrás de la ventana. Para cambiar el mensaje, se desplaza el cuerpo laminar por la ventana hasta que se sitúa el siguiente mensaje detrás de la ventana, en cuyo momento se para el cuerpo laminar. El mecanismo de giro del cuerpo laminar es de funcionamiento electrónico, y suele activarse a distancia. La posibilidad de cambiar el mensaje publicitario, posibilita a su vez la comercialización de períodos breves de tiempo de publicidad, satisfaciendo así la demanda publicitaria de un mayor segmento del público anunciante. Cuando el mensaje publicitario se establece sobre un sólo cuerpo laminar, será intrascendente cuánto más ancha es la máquina que el cuerpo laminar. Sin embargo, en máquinas que se pretendan agrupar para utilizar una serie de cuerpos laminares en la exposición de un sólo mensaje publicitario, sí importará cuánto más ancha es la máquina que el cuerpo laminar. Al lector le resultará desconcertante y antiestético la visión de an hueco en lo que debería aparecer como un sólo mensaje. Es más, un espacio grande muy bien podría distraer, perdiéndose así el impacto del mensaje. La anterior es importante sobre todo al contemplarse una serie de máquinas agrupadas en la televisión. Se sabe por experiencia que al enfocar la cámara de televisión un anuncio agrupado en una cancha deportiva típica, el hueco máximo aceptable para el televidente es de 3/8 de pulgada, aproximadamente.Advertising machines are now known where a laminar body is wrapped around a screen-like roller. The advertising material is printed or otherwise fixed to the laminar body, moving it through a display window towards a rolling roller. Advertising messages are advanced from the roller to stand behind the window. To change the message, the sheet body is moved through the window until the next message is placed behind the window, at which time the sheet body is stopped. The mechanism of rotation of the laminar body is electronic, and is usually activated remotely. The possibility of changing the advertising message, in turn enables the commercialization of short periods of advertising time, thus satisfying the advertising demand of a larger segment of the advertising public. When the advertising message is established on a single sheet body, it will be inconsequential how much wider the machine is than the sheet body. However, in machines that are intended to be grouped together to use a series of laminar bodies in the exhibition of a single advertising message, it will matter how much wider the machine is than the laminar body. The reader will find puzzling and unsightly the vision of an opening in what should appear as a single message. Moreover, a large space could very well distract, thus losing the impact of the message. The former is important especially when contemplating a series of machines grouped on television. It is known from experience that when the television camera is focused on an advertisement grouped on a typical sports field, the maximum acceptable gap for the viewer is approximately 3/8 of an inch.
Los rodillos de la técnica conocida suelen ser movidos por incómodas correas de transmisión y poleas de mando, que ocupan bastante espacio. Estos mecanismos de transmisión suelen ser complejos y hacen que las máquinas sean grandes y abultadas. Los mecanismos de transmisión se prolongan más allá de los rodillos, necesitando de diseños complejos de entrelazado para juntar los bordes de cuerpos laminares contiguos al utilizar máquinas agrupadas. Además, las máquinas del estado de la técnica son difíciles de mantener y de configuración singular, con lo que su utilidad es limitada.The rollers of the known technique are usually moved by uncomfortable drive belts and drive pulleys, which take up enough space. These transmission mechanisms are usually complex and make the machines large and bulky. The transmission mechanisms extend beyond the rollers, requiring complex interlocking designs to join the edges of adjacent laminar bodies when using grouped machines. In addition, state-of-the-art machines are difficult to maintain and have a unique configuration, so their usefulness is limited.
Si bien las máquinas para exhibir publicidad de referencia han permitido cambiar la publicidad a distancia y agrupar máquinas para desplegar mensajes publicitarios únicos, sería interesante poder perfeccionar dichas máquinas para exhibir publicidad. Tales mejores serían especialmente provechosas si con ello se pudiese realzar la utilidad de las máquinas para exhibir publicidad, simplificando su estructura.While the machines for displaying reference advertising have allowed remote advertising to change and grouping machines to display unique advertising messages, it would be interesting to be able to refine such machines to display advertising. Such better ones would be especially helpful if with This could enhance the usefulness of machines for displaying advertising, simplifying their structure.

Otro objeto más de la presente invención es presentar una máquina para exhibir publicidad que permita el encorvamiento de una ventana de exhibición, de forma que se pueda disponer publicidad en curvas, tales como las esquinas de una pista de hockey.A further object of the present invention is to present a machine for displaying advertising that allows the bending of an exhibition window, so that advertising can be arranged in curves, such as the corners of a hockey rink.
Otro objeto de la presente invención es presentar una máquina para exhibir publicidad que pueda colocarse en una cancha de juego, y proteja los mecanismos de exhibición y el público espectador.Another object of the present invention is to present a machine for displaying advertising that can be placed on a playing field, and protects the display mechanisms and the spectator audience.
Brevemente, y de acuerdo con la presente invención, se prevé una máquina para exhibir publicidad que pueda utilizarse de forma individual, o conjuntamente con un grupo de máquinas, para exhibir mensajes publicitarios. Los mensajes se disponen en un cuerpo laminar, que en un principio queda enrollado sobre un primer rodillo cilindrico de mando. Al situarse un mensaje tras la ventana de exhibición, se para el cuerpo laminar. El mensaje se cambia desplazando el cuerpo laminar entre los rodillos hasta el mensaje siguiente.Briefly, and in accordance with the present invention, a machine is planned to display advertising that can be used individually, or in conjunction with a group of machines, to display advertising messages. The messages are arranged in a laminar body, which is initially wound on a first cylindrical control roller. When a message is placed behind the display window, the laminar body is stopped. The message is changed by moving the laminar body between the rollers to the next message.
Los motores de accionamiento del cuerpo laminar entre los rodillos cilindrico se alojan en su seno, posibilitando así la ocupación por los rodillos cilindricos del ancho total de la máquina entre sus extremos, y permitiendo también que el cuerpo laminar se extienda hasta los extremos de la máquina. Así pues, al agruparse las máquinas, éstas se sitúan de forma contigua, quedando los cuerpos laminares muy próximos, con lo que se permite una apariencia de continuidad.The drive motors of the laminar body between the cylindrical rollers are housed therein, thus enabling the occupation by the cylindrical rollers of the total width of the machine between its ends, and also allowing the laminar body to extend to the ends of the machine . Thus, when the machines are grouped, they are located contiguously, leaving the laminar bodies very close, allowing an appearance of continuity.
En una realización preferente, los extremos de la máquina van provistos de ranuras que se comunican con el interior de los rodillos cilindricos, para permitir que el cableado se introduzca, en efecto, dentro de los rodillos cilindricos, sin que éstos tengan que quedar separados de los extremos de la máquina. La disposición insólita del cableado reduce al mínimo los huecos entre las máquinas adyacentes, concretamente al ancho de ambos bordes de las máquinas. Además, cada máquina posee un elemento estructural que se extiende entre los extremos de la máquina y se comunica con las ranuras, de forma que los cables de los rodillos cilindricos puedan introducirse en el elemento estructural, en el que se alojan los componentes electrónicos que, en parte, controlan los motores. El elemento estructural también se sitúa detrás de la parte expuesta del cuerpo laminar, absorbiendo el impacto que pudiera producirse contra la ventana y el cuerpo laminar en un acontecimiento deportivo. La máquina también dispone de un fácil acceso al interior, desde su parte anterior y posterior, a fin de cambiar el cuerpo laminar y de proceder al mantenimiento. Además, la máquina servirá de apoyo para un muro de protección del público espectador, como sucede por norma en partidos de hockey. En otra realización, las máquinas agrupadas pueden configurarse para formar vina curva, previéndose los medios necesarios para que la ventana asuma el radio deseado de curvatura.In a preferred embodiment, the ends of the machine are provided with grooves that communicate with the inside of the cylindrical rollers, to allow the wiring to be introduced, in effect, into the cylindrical rollers, without these having to be separated from The ends of the machine. The unusual wiring arrangement minimizes the gaps between adjacent machines, specifically the width of both machine edges. In addition, each machine has a structural element that extends between the ends of the machine and communicates with the grooves, so that the cylindrical roller cables can be introduced into the structural element, which houses the electronic components that, in part, they control the engines. The structural element is also it places behind the exposed part of the laminar body, absorbing the impact that could occur against the window and the laminar body in a sporting event. The machine also has easy access to the interior, from its front and back, in order to change the laminar body and proceed to maintenance. In addition, the machine will support a protection wall of the spectator audience, as is the case in hockey matches. In another embodiment, the grouped machines can be configured to form a curved vine, providing the necessary means for the window to assume the desired radius of curvature.

In the closure of the machine 10, end plates 32, 34 also participate, of which only one is shown in figure 1.
La Figura 2 muestra la placa de asiento 12 desde el extremo izquierdo de la máquina de la figura 1. La placa de asiento se fabrica a base de un material muy resistente, como el acero, con un grosor típico de unas 0,125 pulgadas. La placa de asiento 12 sólo lleva curvas simples y, en caso de fabricarse a base de metal, puede fabricarse a través de operaciones sencillas de corte y doblado. El fondo 36 de la placa de asiento es horizontal, doblándose para formar la superficie vertical anterior 38, así como una superficie posterior sustancialmente vertical 40. La superficie posterior 40 está desfasada por su extremo superior 42 hacia la superficie anterior 38.Figure 2 shows the seat plate 12 from the left end of the machine of figure 1. The seat plate is made of a very resistant material, such as steel, with a typical thickness of about 0.125 inches. The seat plate 12 only has simple curves and, in the case of metal-based manufacturing, can be manufactured through simple cutting and bending operations. The bottom 36 of the seat plate is horizontal, bending to form the front vertical surface 38, as well as a substantially vertical rear surface 40. The rear surface 40 is offset by its upper end 42 towards the front surface 38.

The front surface 38 is bent towards back by its upper end. A square 46 in L is fixed to the bottom 36, arranged parallel and separately from the front surface 38. The vertical part 48 of the square 46 and the vertical front surface 38, define a groove 50 that receives the lower end of the plastic sheet 14 .
Las figuras 4 y 5 muestran la cubierta posterior. La cubierta 16 se fabrica a base de una lámina plana de material de resistencia media, tal como el acero, y suele tener un grosor de unas 0,125 pulgadas. Se fija una pareja de escuadras 52 próximas al extremo inferior 53 de la cubierta 16. Según se dirá, las escuadras 52 afianzan la cubierta 16 al extremo superior 42 de la superficie posterior vertical 40 de la placa de asiento 12. Se prevén dos orificios 54 en el extremo superior 56 de la cubierta 16, en los que se introducen trinquetes de cierre 58 para afianzar la cubierta a la placa superior 18. La cubierta 16 tiene el mismo ancho que la máquina y, según se verá, permite el acceso pleno al interior del cajón 20, para instalar cuerpos laminares de publicidad y mantener la máquina 10.Figures 4 and 5 show the back cover. The cover 16 is made of a flat sheet of medium strength material, such as steel, and is usually about 0.125 inches thick. A pair of brackets 52 close to the lower end 53 of the cover 16 are fixed. As will be said, the brackets 52 secure the cover 16 to the upper end 42 of the vertical rear surface 40 of the seat plate 12. Two holes 54 are provided. at the upper end 56 of the cover 16, in which ratchets of closure 58 to secure the cover to the top plate 18. The cover 16 has the same width as the machine and, as will be seen, allows full access to the interior of the drawer 20, to install advertising laminar bodies and maintain the machine 10.
La figura 7 muestra la placa superior 18 desde el extremo izquierda de la máquina 10 que aparece en la figura 1. La placa superior tiene el mismo ancho que la placa de asiento 12. La placa superior 18 se divide en una parte anterior 60, abisagrada a la parte posterior 62. La bisagra 64 permite que la parte anterior 60 bascule hacia arriba en relación con la parte posterior 62. La parte frontal tiene una superficie anterior de trayecto descendente 66 que se vuelve sobre sí misma. Se prevé una escuadra 68 en L, con una parte descendente 70 que discurre por el ancho de la cubierta y queda separada de la superficie anterior 66. La parte descendente 70 y la superficie frontal 66, definen una acanaladura 72 que recibe el extremo superior de la lámina plástica 14. La parte posterior 62 lleva una superficie descendente 74, desfasada hacia la parte anterior 60 por su extremo inferior 76. Se prevé una pieza moldeada de caucho 78, en D, dispuesta horizontalmente sobre la superficie posterior del extremo inferior 76 de la cubierta superior 18 y que, según se describirá más adelante, sirve de superficie de ajuste del extremo superior 56 de la cubierta posterior 16. La cubierta posterior se fabrica a base de un material de resistencia media, tal como el acero, y suele tener un grosor de 0,125 pulgadas.Figure 7 shows the top plate 18 from the left end of the machine 10 shown in Figure 1. The top plate has the same width as the seat plate 12. The top plate 18 is divided into a hinged front part 60 to the rear part 62. The hinge 64 allows the front part 60 to swing upwards in relation to the rear part 62. The front part has an anterior descending path surface 66 that turns on itself. A square 68 is provided in L, with a descending part 70 that runs along the width of the roof and is separated from the front surface 66. The descending part 70 and the front surface 66, define a groove 72 that receives the upper end of the plastic sheet 14. The rear part 62 has a descending surface 74, offset to the front part 60 by its lower end 76. A rubber molded part 78, in D, is provided horizontally arranged on the rear surface of the lower end 76 of the upper cover 18 and which, as will be described later, serves as an adjustment surface for the upper end 56 of the rear cover 16. The rear cover is made of a medium-strength material, such as steel, and usually has a thickness of 0.125 inches.
La figura 3 muestra un placa extrema 34, que aparece en el extremo derecho de la máquina 10 de la figura 1. La placa extrema del extremo izquierdo de la máquina 10 es un calco de la placa 34, y simétrica de arriba abajo. Según se dirá, el grosor de la placa extrema es muy importante en la aplicación agrupada de la máquina para exhibir publicidad. Las placas extremas se fabrican a base de un material de alta resistencia, tal como el acero, con un grosor de unas 0,125 pulgadas. Las placas extremas disponen de una serie de orificios de fijación 80, 82, 84, 86, 88, 90 de los sistemas de rodillo utilizados para mover los cuerpos laminares. También se prevén orificios 92 para alinear y empernar las máquinas adyacentes entre sí. Las placas van también provistas de ranuras 94, 96 para que los cables de control del motor desciendan por las placas, y un orificio de paso 98 para pasar cables eléctricos de una máquina a otra sin tener un cableado exterior.Figure 3 shows an end plate 34, which appears at the right end of the machine 10 of Figure 1. The end plate at the left end of the machine 10 is a tracing of the plate 34, and symmetrical from top to bottom. As will be said, the thickness of the end plate is very important in the grouped application of the machine to display advertising. The end plates are made of a high strength material, such as steel, with a thickness of about 0.125 inches. The end plates have a series of fixing holes 80, 82, 84, 86, 88, 90 of the roller systems used to move the sheet bodies. Holes 92 are also provided to align and bolt adjacent machines together. The plates are also provided with grooves 94, 96 for the motor control cables to descend through the plates, and a through hole 98 to pass electrical cables from one machine to another without having an external wiring.
La figura 6 muestra un cajón central 30, en disposición horizontal entre las placas extremas. El cajón 30 está en U y se fabrica a base de un material de alta resistencia como el acero. El cajón puede fabricarse mediante operaciones sencillas de corte y doblado. El cajón 30 dispone de una superficie vertical plana anterior 100, y dos superficies horizontales 102, 104, que se rematan en aletas traseras 106, 108, respectivamente. El cajón 30 se extiende entre las placas extremas. La superficie posterior de las aletas 106, 108 se alinea con la superficie anterior de la cubierta trasera, sirviendo de apoyo estructural de la cubierta posterior, de forma que ésta no pueda hundirse hacia adentro. Se fija un soporte cilindrico al cajón 30 para alojar un sensor óptico.Figure 6 shows a central drawer 30, in horizontal arrangement between the end plates. The drawer 30 is in U and is made of a high strength material such as steel. The drawer can be manufactured by simple cutting and folding operations. The drawer 30 has a front flat vertical surface 100, and two horizontal surfaces 102, 104, which are finished off in rear wings 106, 108, respectively. The drawer 30 extends between the end plates. The rear surface of the fins 106, 108 is aligned with the front surface of the rear cover, serving as a structural support for the rear cover, so that it cannot sink inwards. A cylindrical support is attached to drawer 30 to accommodate an optical sensor.
Las figuras 8 y 9 muestran un rodillo cilindrico de mando 26 idéntico al rodillo cilindrico de mando 28. El rodillo cilindrico de mando 26 aparece seccionado (figura 9), exponiendo el conjunto motriz 109 que encaja íntegramente en el mismo. El conjunto motriz 109 lleva un motor eléctrico 110 y un engranaje impulsor 111 montado sobre el extremo de un eje motor 112. El engranaje impulsor 111 hace girar un sistema planetario de engranajes de reducción de tres ruedas 112, que incluye engranajes de reducción 113, 114, 115, todos, unidos coaxialmente a una rueda de transmisión de caucho asociada 116, 117, 118, respectivamente. La figura 9 sólo muestra un engranaje de reducción 113 y su rueda de transmisión asociada 116, a fin de simplificar la descripción. No obstante, la descripción también es de aplicación al resto de engranajes de reducción y ruedas de transmisión.Figures 8 and 9 show a cylindrical roller 26 identical to the cylindrical roller 28. The cylindrical roller 26 is sectioned (Figure 9), exposing the drive assembly 109 that fits entirely in it. The drive assembly 109 carries an electric motor 110 and a drive gear 111 mounted on the end of a drive shaft 112. The drive gear 111 rotates a three-wheel planetary reduction gear system 112, which includes reduction gears 113, 114 , 115, all, coaxially attached to an associated rubber transmission wheel 116, 117, 118, respectively. Figure 9 shows only a reduction gear 113 and its associated drive wheel 116, in order to simplify the description. However, the description also applies to the rest of reduction gears and transmission wheels.
La rueda de transmisión 116 va montada sobre un cilindro de rueda de transmisión 119, roscado a ambos extremos. El cilindro 119 lleva cojinetes 120, 121 fijados al interior del cilindro a ambos extremos, y con diámetros internos menores que el diámetro interno del cilindro 119. El cilindro 119 de la rueda de transmisión va dispuesto sobre un cilindro separador 122, girando alrededor del cilindro 122 sobre cojinetes 120, 121 que trabajan sobre el cilindro separador. Este cilindro separador 122 va montado sobre el eje 123, que se extiende a través de una chapa frontal 124 hasta que la cabeza 125 del eje 123 contacta con la chapa frontal. El eje 123 sigue por el cilindro separador 122 y se rosca al motor 110 por el extremo roscado 126. Se disponen arandelas 127, 128 rodeando al cilindro 199 de la rueda de transmisión, a ambos lados de la rueda de transmisión 116. El engranaje reductor 113 va dispuesto alrededor del cilindro 199 de la rueda de transmisión, fijado a la arandela 128 mediante pivotes de rodillo 130, 132. Se roscan los pernos de ajuste 134, 136 a los extremos roscados del cilindro 119 de la rueda de transmisión, respectivamente.The drive wheel 116 is mounted on a drive wheel cylinder 119, threaded at both ends. The cylinder 119 has bearings 120, 121 fixed inside the cylinder at both ends, and with internal diameters smaller than the internal diameter of the cylinder 119. The cylinder 119 of the transmission wheel is arranged on a spacer cylinder 122, rotating around the cylinder 122 on bearings 120, 121 working on the spacer cylinder. This spacer cylinder 122 is mounted on the axis 123, which extends through a front plate 124 until the head 125 of the axis 123 contacts the front plate. The axis 123 follows the spacer cylinder 122 and is threaded to the motor 110 by the threaded end 126. Washers 127, 128 are arranged surrounding the cylinder 199 of the transmission wheel, on both sides of the transmission wheel 116. The reduction gear 113 is arranged around the cylinder 199 of the transmission wheel, fixed to the washer 128 by roller pivots 130, 132. The adjusting bolts 134, 136 are threaded to the threaded ends of the cylinder 119 of the transmission wheel, respectively.
Al apretarse la cabeza del eje 125, se aprieta la chapa frontal 124 contra el cilindro separador 122, que a su vez se aprieta contra el motor 110. Así pues, el apriete de los tres ejes bloquea la chapa frontal de forma firme contra el motor, a modo de banqueta de tres patas. Las tuercas de ajuste 134, 136, al ser apretadas contra sus arandelas respectivas 127, 128, comprimirán la rueda de transmisión de caucho 116, con lo que se dilatará hacia afuera. Al apretarse las tuercas de ajuste, el engranaje reductor 113 se comprimirá contra la arandela 128, girando con la arandela a la que va sujeto, y la rueda de transmisión. Los pasadores 130, 132 son lo suficientemente largos como para que a medida que se aprietan las tuercas de ajuste, los pasadores se ven forzados contra la rueda 116, ayudando a transmitir el movimiento del engranaje reductor 136 a la rueda 116.When the head of the shaft 125 is pressed, the front plate 124 is pressed against the spacer cylinder 122, which in turn is pressed against the motor 110. Thus, the tightening of the three axes locks the front plate firmly against the motor , as a three-legged bench. The adjusting nuts 134, 136, when pressed against their respective washers 127, 128, will compress the rubber drive wheel 116, thereby expanding outward. When the adjusting nuts are tightened, the reduction gear 113 will be compressed against the washer 128, rotating with the washer to which it is attached, and the transmission wheel. The pins 130, 132 are long enough so that as the adjusting nuts are tightened, the pins are forced against the wheel 116, helping to transmit the movement of the reduction gear 136 to the wheel 116.
La vista de la figura 8 no muestra la chapa frontal 124, el eje 123 y los detalles del conjunto, a fin de simplificar la descripción del sistema planetario de engranajes. Las ruedas de transmisión de caucho se dilatan al ajustar las tuercas 125 hasta que se consigue un encaje forzado entre las ruedas y el interior del cilindro. El conjunto motor 109 es empujado hasta el rodillo cilindrico 28. Las ruedas 116, 117, 118 sirven tanto para centrar el cilindro alrededor del conjunto motor, como para arrastrar su superficie interna a modo de corona dentada. Así, el cilindro 28 forma una parte integral de la reducción de engranajes. Las relaciones de los engranajes y el tamaño de las ruedas de transmisión se eligen para presentar la reducción de engranajes necesaria, y satisfacer las limitaciones geométricas del interior del cilindro. La figura 10 muestra un conjunto de cojinetes de bolas, utilizado a ambos extremos de los rodillos cilindricos de tensión 22, 24, y en el extremo que no contiene el motor en cada uno de los rodillos cilindricos de mando 26, 28. Como quiera que los rodillos de mando tienen diámetros mayores que los rodillos de tensión, el conjunto de cojinetes de bolas 146 de los rodillos de mando será de mayor diámetro. El conjunto de cojinete de bolas 146 lleva un anillo base 148 montado por cojinetes de bolas 150 para girar alrededor de un soporte axial 152. Como se dirá, el soporte axial va fijado a una placa extrema. El anillo base 148 va fijado al interior del cilindro mediante tornillos 154.The view of Figure 8 does not show the front plate 124, the axis 123 and the details of the assembly, in order to simplify the description of the planetary gear system. The rubber drive wheels are dilated by adjusting the nuts 125 until a forced fit between the wheels and the inside of the cylinder is achieved. The motor assembly 109 is pushed to the cylindrical roller 28. The wheels 116, 117, 118 serve both to center the cylinder around the motor assembly, and to drag its internal surface as a toothed crown. Thus, the cylinder 28 forms an integral part of the gear reduction. The gear ratios and the size of the transmission wheels are chosen to present the necessary gear reduction, and to satisfy the geometric limitations of the interior of the cylinder. Figure 10 shows a set of ball bearings, used at both ends of the tension cylindrical rollers 22, 24, and at the end not containing the motor in each of the drive cylindrical rollers 26, 28. However the drive rollers have diameters larger than the tension rollers, the ball bearing assembly 146 of the drive rollers will be larger in diameter. The ball bearing assembly 146 has a base ring 148 mounted by ball bearings 150 to rotate about an axial support 152. As will be said, the axial support is fixed to an end plate. The base ring 148 is fixed inside the cylinder by means of screws 154.
Pasando a la figura 11, una sola unidad de máquina para exhibir publicidad se monta de la siguiente forma. Se sitúa el cajón central 30 para centrarse entre la placa de asiento 12 y la placa superior 18, soldándose o afianzándose de otra forma a las placas extremas 32, 34. Las placas extremas 32, 34 también van soldadas a la placa de asiento 12, soldándose a la parte posterior 62 de la placa superior 19. Las placas extremas 32, 34, placa de asiento 12, parte posterior de la placa superior 18, y cajón central 30 constituyen así una estructura íntegra soldada a modo de cajón, con bastante resistencia y robustez. Sin la lámina plástica 14 y la cubierta posterior 16, se puede acceder a todo el interior de la estructura a modo de cajón 20. Seguidamente, se fijan ambos conjuntos de motor de transmisión 110 de forma que las ruedas de transmisión hagan un buen contacto con el interior de los rodillos cilindricos de mando 26, 28. Después, se introduce un conjunto de motor de transmisión en un extremo de cada cilindro 26, 28. Se introduce un conjunto de cojinetes de bolas 146 en el otro extremo de cada cilindro 26, 28, fijándose al mismo mediante tornillos 154. Los rodillos de mando quedan afianzados a las placas extremas 32, 34 a través de la fijación de los motores 112 a las placas extremas, mediante tornillos 156 (figura 9) que atraviesan los orificios de fijación 84, 86 en las placas extremas. Los conjuntos de cojinetes de bolas 146 se fijan a las placas extremas 32, 34 mediante tornillos 156 (figura 10) que atraviesan los orificios de fijación 82, 88 en las placas extremas. Los rodillos cilindricos de tensión 22, 24 se conectan a las placas extremas mediante la fijación de ion conjunto de cojinetes de bolas 146 a cada extremo de los cilindros mediante tornillos 154. Los rodillos cilindricos de tensión se fijan a las placas extremas mediante tornillos 156, que atraviesan los orificios de fijación 80, 90 de las placas extremas.Turning to Figure 11, a single machine unit for displaying advertising is mounted as follows. The central drawer 30 is positioned to center between the seat plate 12 and the upper plate 18, being welded or otherwise secured to the end plates 32, 34. The end plates 32, 34 are also welded to the seat plate 12, being welded to the back 62 of the upper plate 19. The end plates 32, 34, seat plate 12, rear part of the upper plate 18, and central drawer 30 thus constitute an integral structure welded as a drawer, with sufficient strength and robustness. Without the plastic sheet 14 and the back cover 16, the entire interior of the structure can be accessed as a drawer 20. Next, both transmission motor assemblies 110 are fixed so that the transmission wheels make good contact with the inside of the drive cylindrical rollers 26, 28. Next, a drive motor assembly is introduced at one end of each cylinder 26, 28. A set of ball bearings 146 is introduced at the other end of each cylinder 26, 28, fixing it by screws 154. The drive rollers are secured to the end plates 32, 34 by fixing the motors 112 to the end plates, by means of screws 156 (Figure 9) that pass through the fixing holes 84, 86 in the end plates . The ball bearing assemblies 146 are fixed to the end plates 32, 34 by screws 156 (Figure 10) that pass through the fixing holes 82, 88 in the end plates. The tension cylindrical rollers 22, 24 are connected to the end plates by fixing a set of ball bearing assemblies 146 to each end of the cylinders by means of screws 154. The tension cylindrical rollers are fixed to the end plates by means of screws 156, which pass through the fixing holes 80, 90 of the end plates.
Según se aprecia en la figura 11, ambas ranuras 94, 96 se comunican con el interior de uno de los rodillos cilindricos de mando 26, 28 y con el cajón central 30. Así pues, alojando los controles electrónicos en el cajón central 30 y utilizando conductores planos con un grosor de 0,125 pulgadas o menos, los conductores podrán libremente atravesar el cajón central hasta los motores de transmisión (que no se muestran) , pasándolos por las ranuras 94, 96 hasta el interior de los rodillos cilindricos de mando. Esta estructura permite que los rodillos se extiendan de placa extrema a placa extrema sin necesidad de dejar un espacio para el cableado. El orificio de paso 98 permite que el cableado pase de máquina en máquina, cuando se utilizan agrupadas.As can be seen in Figure 11, both slots 94, 96 communicate with the inside of one of the control cylindrical rollers 26, 28 and with the central drawer 30. Thus, housing the electronic controls in the central drawer 30 and using flat conductors with a thickness of 0.125 inches or less, the conductors can freely cross the central drawer to the transmission motors (not shown), passing them through the slots 94, 96 to the inside of the control cylindrical rollers. This structure allows the rollers to extend from end plate to end plate without leaving a space for wiring. The hole 98 allows the wiring to pass from machine to machine, when used together.
Se envuelve un cuerpo laminar 160, típicamente un rollo de papel o plástico, portador de mensajes publicitarios, alrededor del rodillo cilindrico de mando 26, al que se fija, pasándose sobre el cilindro de tensión 22, y seguidamente hacia abajo y alrededor del cilindro de tensión 24, y finalmente envolviéndose al rodillo cilindrico de mando 28, al que se fija. Los cilindros de tensión pueden ir cubiertos de una capa de caucho suave para absorber cualquier irregularidad en el cuerpo laminar. Se introduce una ventana 14, típicamente una lámina de policarbonato de alta resistencia de plástico transparente en la acanaladura 50. Esta puede llevar un perfil de plástico o caucho 162 moldeado por inyección, que amortigua el extremo inferior de la lámina 14. Asimismo, se puede colocar un enguatado de caucho 162, por ejemplo, sobre la parte vertical 48 de la escuadra 46, sirviendo de amortiguación a la lámina de plástico 14. La acanaladura 72 en la placa superior puede ir asimismo provista de un perfil de amortiguación 162 moldeado por inyección y un enguatado de caucho 164, sobre la escuadra 68. La placa superior 18 va cerrada sobre la lámina plástica 14, y puede inmovilizarse mediante un conjunto de cierre de trinquete (que no se muestra) u otro mecanismo adecuado de cierre.A laminar body 160, typically a roll of paper or plastic, bearer of advertising messages, is wrapped around the cylindrical control roller 26, to which it is fixed, passing over the cylinder of tension 22, and then down and around the tension cylinder 24, and finally wrapping the control cylindrical roller 28, to which it is fixed. Tension cylinders can be covered with a layer of soft rubber to absorb any irregularities in the laminar body. A window 14, typically a high strength polycarbonate sheet of transparent plastic, is inserted into the groove 50. This can have an injection molded plastic or rubber profile 162, which dampens the lower end of the sheet 14. Also, it can be placing a rubber glove 162, for example, on the vertical part 48 of the square 46, serving as a damping to the plastic sheet 14. The groove 72 on the upper plate can also be provided with an injection molded damping profile 162 and a rubber glove 164, on the square 68. The upper plate 18 is closed on the plastic sheet 14, and can be immobilized by a ratchet closure assembly (not shown) or other suitable closing mechanism.
La cubierta posterior 16 se fija a la placa de asiento, en la que se apoya, mediante la disposición de escuadras 52 sobre el extremo superior 42 de la placa de asiento, haciendo tope con la pieza moldeada de caucho 44 en D. La parte superior 56 de la cubierta posterior 16 se cierra contra la pieza moldeada de caucho 78 en D, trabándose mediante los cierres de trinquete 58.The rear cover 16 is fixed to the seat plate, on which it is supported, by means of the arrangement of brackets 52 on the upper end 42 of the seat plate, abutting the rubber molded part 44 in D. The upper part 56 of the rear cover 16 is closed against the rubber molded part 78 in D, locking by means of the ratchet fasteners 58.
Amén de llevar los componentes electrónicos, el cajón central 30 es un elemento estructural principal de la máquina. Suele disponerse con su amplia superficie anterior plana 166 unas 0,25 pulgadas detrás de la lámina plástica, para dejar un paso por el que suba y baje el cuerpo laminar. La superficie plana 166 también sirve de apoyo para la lámina plástica, en caso de resultar impactada o presionada la lámina, por ejemplo por un jugador de hockey o su disco. La lámina de plástico se dará de sí hacia adentro un máximo de 0,25 pulgadas, contactando con la superficie anterior 166 del cajón 30, que le servirá de apoyo. Al deshacerse la fuerza externa sobre la lámina plástica, volverá a su situación original, con lo que el cuerpo laminar podrá moverse libremente.In addition to carrying the electronic components, the central drawer 30 is a main structural element of the machine. It is usually arranged with its wide flat anterior surface 166 about 0.25 inches behind the plastic sheet, to leave a passage through which the laminar body rises and falls. The flat surface 166 also serves as support for the plastic sheet, if the sheet is impacted or pressed, for example by a hockey player or his disc. The plastic sheet will give inwards a maximum of 0.25 inches, contacting the front surface 166 of the drawer 30, which will serve as support. When the external force on the plastic sheet is undone, it will return to its original situation, so that the laminar body can move freely.
Se coloca una serie de anuncios sobre el cuerpo laminar, activándose bien el motor en el rodillo cilindrico superior 26 o el rodillo cilindrico inferior 28, para desplazar el cuerpo laminar en sentido ascendente o descendente, hasta llegar al anuncio deseado. El anuncio podrá centrarse verticalmente mediante un sensor óptico (que no se muestra), dispuesto en el orificio de montaje 110, en la superficie anterior del cajón 30. De utilizarse un sensor óptico, se colocará un punto negro en el lugar correspondiente sobre la parte posterior del cuerpo laminar. El sensor se apercibirá del punto negro, frenando el avance del cuerpo laminar. Normalmente, el cuerpo laminar se controla a distancia desde un ordenador personal. Los datos del anuncio se almacenan en el ordenador personal que puede controlar qué anuncio aparece y durante cuánto tiempo. La posibilidad de comercializar tiempo de publicidad en segmentos temporales pequeños aumenta las posibilidades de hacer publicidad del público anunciante.A series of advertisements are placed on the laminar body, the motor being activated either in the upper cylindrical roller 26 or the lower cylindrical roller 28, to move the laminar body up or down, until the desired advertisement is reached. The announcement may be centered vertically by means of an optical sensor (not shown), arranged in the mounting hole 110, on the front surface of the drawer 30. If an optical sensor is used, a black dot will be placed in the corresponding place on the part posterior of the laminar body. The sensor will be aware of the black spot, slowing the advance of the laminar body. Normally, the laminar body is controlled remotely from a personal computer. Ad data is stored on the personal computer that can control which ad appears and for how long. The possibility of marketing advertising time in small temporary segments increases the possibilities of advertising the advertising public.
Al cambiar los anuncios en la máquina, se cortan los anuncios correspondientes del cuerpo laminar, pegándose los nuevos. La cara anterior 166 del cajón 30 sirve de superficie válida para el pegado de los nuevos anuncios. La figura 12 muestra un grupo de dos máquinas 10. Las placas extremas centrales 32 y 34 se empernan a través del alineamiento y empernado de los orificios 92. Como quiera que las placas extremas tiene un grosor de tan sólo 0,125 pulgadas cada una,, ambas placas extremas constituyen un espacio máximo de 0,25 pulgadas entre los cuerpos laminares contiguos, que se extienden totalmente a lo ancho de cada máquina. Así, un sólo mensaje publicitario que abarque dos máquinas o más, resultará agradable para la vista y, en concreto, para el televidente.When changing the announcements in the machine, the corresponding announcements of the laminar body are cut, sticking the new ones. The front face 166 of the drawer 30 serves as a valid surface for pasting new announcements. Figure 12 shows a group of two machines 10. The central end plates 32 and 34 are bolted through the alignment and bolting of the holes 92. Since the end plates have a thickness of only 0.125 inches each ,, both Extreme plates constitute a maximum space of 0.25 inches between the adjacent laminar bodies, which extend completely across the width of each machine. Thus, a single advertising message covering two machines or more will be pleasant for the eyes and, in particular, for the viewer.
La máquina 10 puede adaptarse para acontecimientos deportivos concretos. Por ejemplo, la figura 13 es una vista superior de una máquina cuya lámina plástica 14 es recta en una mitad de la máquina, desde el extremo izquierdo, encorvándose a partir del centro y hasta el extremo derecho. Ello es posible encorvando la acanaladura en las placas de cubierta y de asiento, y doblando el plástico para su encaje. El rodillo cilindrico de tensión 22 está en línea con la parte recta de la lámina plástica 14, y separado de la misma en el extremo derecho. La máquina que aparece en la figura 14 está encorvada desde la izquierda de forma continua hasta el extremo derecho. El rodillo cilindrico de tensión 22 de la figura 14 está en línea con el centro de la lámina plástica 14, y queda separado asimismo de la lámina 14 en los extremos izquierdo y derecho. Como se desprenderá claramente, una curva como la de una pista de hockey se consigue mediante la selección de unidades de curvatura adecuada, alineándolas entre sí. Para constituir una curva, el extremo izquierdo de la máquina de la figura 13 se empareja con un máquina recta y el extremo derecho se empareja con otra máquina curva, como la representada en la figura 14. La curva se remata utilizando una máquina mitad recta/mitad encorvada, con la parte recta en el extremo derecho.Machine 10 can be adapted for specific sporting events. For example, Figure 13 is a top view of a machine whose plastic sheet 14 is straight in one half of the machine, from the left end, bending from the center to the right end. This is possible by bending the groove in the cover and seat plates, and folding the plastic to fit. The tension cylindrical roller 22 is in line with the straight part of the plastic sheet 14, and separated therefrom at the right end. The machine shown in Figure 14 is bent from the left continuously to the right end. The tension cylindrical roller 22 of Figure 14 is in line with the center of the plastic sheet 14, and is also separated from the sheet 14 at the left and right ends. As will be clear, a curve like that of a hockey rink is achieved by selecting suitable units of curvature, aligning them with each other. To constitute a curve, the left end of the machine of Figure 13 is paired with a straight machine and the right end is paired with another machine curved, as shown in Figure 14. The curve is finished using a machine half straight / half hunched, with the straight part on the right end.
La máquina 10 de la figura 15 va montada sobre una infraestructura 170, adecuada para el hockey. Se monta una pared de fondo 172 de polietileno de alta densidad en la parte anterior de la infraestructura 170. Asimismo, se monta un protector acrílico 174 sobre la máquina.The machine 10 of Figure 15 is mounted on an infrastructure 170, suitable for hockey. A bottom wall 172 of high density polyethylene is mounted on the front of the infrastructure 170. Also, an acrylic protector 174 is mounted on the machine.
Se podrían introducir numerosas modificaciones en la invención, que caben dentro del espíritu y ámbito de la invención. Por ejemplo, los rodillos podrían afianzarse a las placas extremas a través de un machihembrado de desmontaje rápido. Además, como quiera que la máquina es de por sí resistente y hermética, podría destinarse a multitud de usos en interiores y exteriores. Debido a su compacidad, robustez y a la posibilidad de mantenerlas, accediendo desde su cara anterior o posterior, sería sencillo apilar las máquinas para formar una certelera de envergadura casi ilimitada. La máquina puede fabricarse a base de otros materiales, tal como plástico reforzado. Asimismo, la ventana podría afianzarse más a través de apoyos verticales laterales, además de las acanaladuras superior e inferior. Numerous modifications could be made to the invention, which fit within the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, the rollers could be secured to the end plates through a quick-release tongue and groove. In addition, since the machine is itself resistant and tight, it could be used for many indoor and outdoor uses. Due to their compactness, robustness and the possibility of maintaining them, accessing from their front or rear face, it would be easy to stack the machines to form an almost unlimited size. The machine can be manufactured based on other materials, such as reinforced plastic. Also, the window could be further secured through lateral vertical supports, in addition to the upper and lower grooves.
