Description

Title: AN ADVERTISING DEVICE
Technical field of the invention
This invention relates to a device for advertising.
Background to the invention
The applicant is aware that one dimensional advertising devices such as flags and banners are not visible from all angles. One way of making such one dimensional flags or banners visible is by causing them to rotate. Such a device is described in South African Patent 2003/8904 by the same applicant. It is an object of this invention to provide a further device for advertising, which addresses the problem of visibility.
General description of the invention
According to a first aspect of the invention there is provided a device for advertising, which device includes: a shaft to be vertically mounted, in use; an upper connection means proximate the upper end of the shaft for connecting to one end of each of at least two resiliently flexible rods; and a lower connection means proximate the lower end of the shaft for connecting to each other end of the resiliently flexible rods, such that with each rod being longer than the distance between the upper and lower connection means a banner of flexible material can, in use, be spanned by each rod in a plane defined by the rod and shaft.
The shaft may be configured to be rotatable to form an elongate spindle defining an upright axis for rotation. The shaft may be of any shape or be virtual in the case where the resiliency flexible rods are configured to keep the upper and lower attachment means in the desired position without the use of a physical shaft.
The upper and lower connection means may preferably be configured to connect to three or four resiliently flexible rods to form a three dimensional projection view.
The shaft may be rotatably mountable on a mounting. The mounting may typically be a pole, base or a frame mountable on a pole or base.
The shaft and mounting may each be provided with a magnet, which magnets, in use, are axially aligned with corresponding poles of the magnets towards each other so as to oppose each other. It will be appreciated that at least some of the weight of the shaft and resiliently flexible poles is, in use, carried by the opposing magnetic forces to minimise rotation friction between the shaft and mounting.
The upper and lower connection means may be configured to have pairs of matching attachment points for attaching the resiliently flexible rod. The matching attachment points may be aligned or non-aligned in a plane radiating from the shaft. It will be appreciated that attachment of a resiliently flexible rod to non-aligned attachment points will warp the plane defined by the shaft and rod.
Alternatively, or in addition, the attachment points of the connection means may be configured to rotationally lock the rod in position. It will be appreciated that the resiliently flexible rod may then be torsionally pre- stressed so that the plane defined by the shaft and the rod may be warped. Also, the resiliently flexible rods may be pre-formed or pre-shaped. In other words, the resiliently flexible rods may be biased on a predetermined shape.
It will be appreciated that the warp caused by non-aligned attachment points, predetermined shape, or tortional pre-stressing, or a combination thereof, can be predetermined so that a desired shape of the plane can be achieved. Typically the spanned banners, in use, can be shaped such that wind would rotate the device. In this way, a generally two dimensional device, i.e. with two spanned banners will rotate in a wind to increase visibility by appearing three dimensional and by adding movement. Additionally, a three dimensional device, i.e. having three or more spanned banners, can increase it visibility by adding rotational movement even in slight breezes.
The attachment points may be fixed sleeves provided in the upper and lower connection means for receiving an end of the flexible rods. Alternatively, the upper and/ or lower connection means may be provided with a passage for receiving the vertical shaft axially slidably there through and the connection means is configured to allow the rods, when connected to be moveable in a generally vertical plane. In one embodiment, the connection means may include two or more a swivelable sleeves in a generally vertical slit defined in the connection means. In another embodiment, the connection means may be of a resiliently deformable material and include a horizontal slit about its periphery which widens on the inside thereof to accept a complementary widening portion provided at the end of a rod in a snap fit manner. The connection means is then further provided with a two or more spaced generally vertical slits to allow the rod vertical movement.
One of the connection means may be slidably moveable along the shaft, preferably the lower connection means and the moveable connection means and the shaft may be provided with complementary formations to lock the moveable connection means into position, preferably locked into a horizontal and vertical position. Typically the formations may be bayonet type or twist and lock type formations. It will be appreciated that the flexible rods can, in these embodiments, formed in an umbrella like fashion.
It will further be appreciated that the device should be constructed from light materials, which also lowers the rotational friction.
It will also be appreciated that the device can easily be transported in its disassembled form, easily assembled on site in a variety of shapes using a banner with printed matter.
The resiliently flexible rods may be of metal such as aluminium, composite material such as fibre glass or graphite, or any other suitable material.
The device may include a banner configured to attach a resiliently flexible rod thereto along an edge of the banner. Typically the banner may be provided with a sleeve for receiving the rod there through.
