MODULAR MULTI-SCREEN DISPLAY

Abstract

The present invention is referred to a modular multi-screen display, which allows to display advertising by any of its parts including walls, upper crosspieces, interior or exterior, that includes a chassis on which it is mounted the screens but that are synchronized between them to show one image unit in all the display body, in such a manner that the synchronization of them and the change of dynamic advertising posters that are displayed are manipulated using a modem that is connected in real time to a physical or virtual server that is located in a remote physical unit and that through this it is carried out the change of the advertising presentation on the display, regardless of whether it is inside or outside of a business. Its variant includes a set of interconnected screens either on the business furniture, on household appliances or where appropriate on the roof of the business from outside the premises.

Claims

1. A modular multi-screen display comprising: a prismatic chassis having a plurality of faces and corners having edges: a flat screen located on each side face of the prismatic chassis; fastening devices to secure the flat screen to the corresponding face; the flat screens are interconnected to each other to provide a joint projection of images; a curved screen located on the edges of the corners of the prismatic chassis, the curved screens give to the projection of the side screens the idea of continuity in their image; each of the flat screen and the curved screens are placed in a support to rest on their bases; wherein at least two of the cured screens—form a cylindrical section that is placed on the prismatic chassis and make joint projections with the flat screens; each screen from the back of where the projection is made, at least one first pair of cables is noticed with which it is connected with a second screen and a second pair of cables where the first one energizes the screen by connecting it to a conventional power source and the second one is connected at least to a concentrator which in turn is connected to a PBC type card, and therefore this to a modem which has a real time wireless connection, either by conventional wiring or by conventional wireless wiring (Wifi, Bluetooth, RFID); said modem signal is sent to a logical processing unit (physical or virtual) that is responsible for hosting an algorithm, the projections displayed on the screens, 4 and 13; the screens 3 and 4 that are in the lower part and that come in contact with the ground has a stop 14 that prevents any user from hitting them.

2. The display in accordance with claim 1, wherein the cylindrical section formed by the flat screens is replaced by flat screens forming only one display line that is synchronized with the same projection that that of the multiplicity of screens in the display to allow the display line to be placed not on the display, but on the outside of the business, achieving a synchronization between the interior screens and the exterior screens of the premises, in such a way that the internal and external advertising of the premises show a projection unit.

[0029] FIG. 18 shows a general view of the invention.

[0030] Based on the above mentioned figures the modular multi-screen display comprises one prismatic chassis 1 on each side face of the chassis 1 and using means of conventional fastening 2 (screws, pins, rivets, bolts, clamps, ties, latch or headbands) a multitude of flat screens is fastened 3 (at least two), which are interconnected to each other to provide a joint projection of images; said flat screens 3 at the corners that represent the chassis edges 1, holding also at least two curved screens 4, which allow to give to the projection of the side screens 3 the idea of continuity in their image, in order to provide stability to the screens 3 and 4, each one of them are place in a conventional support 5 where it rests on its base and also is fastened using the conventional fastening means; at least two curved screen 13 form a cylindrical section that is placed on the chassis 1 and manages to make joint projections with the screens 3 and 4 which are supported on the side faces and edges of the chassis 1; of each screen from the back of where the projection is made, at least one first pair of cables 6 is noticed with which it is connected with a second screen and a second pair of cables 7 where the first one makes possible to energize the screen by connecting it to a conventional power source and the second one is connected at least to a concentrator which in turn is connected to a PBC type card 9 and therefore this to a modem 10 that has a real time wireless connection, either by conventional wiring or by conventional wireless wiring (Wifi, Bluetooth, RFID); said modem signal is sent to a logical processing unit (physical 11 or virtual 12) that is responsible for hosting an algorithm, the projections displayed on the screens 3, 4 and 13; the screens 3 and 4 that are in the lower part and that come in contact with the ground has a stop 14 that prevents any user from hitting them.

[0031] A first variant consists in that the cylindrical section formed by screen 13, is replaced by flat screens 3 forming only one display line that is synchronized with the same projection that that of the multiplicity of screens in the display; this variant allows the display line to be placed not on the display, but on the outside the business, achieving a synchronization between the interior screens and the exterior screens of the premises, in such a way that the internal and external advertising of the premises shows a projection unit.

[0032] This display can form either an external chassis of a conventional refrigerator around which an advertising is displayed that extend over the upper screens of the same, its edges or all of its walls.

Invention Functioning

[0033] From the logical processing unit, which could be a conventional computer, an intelligent telephone, an electronic tablet, a PCB type card where the advertisements to be displayed on the display are stored or their variants, a digital signal is sent; this unit can be physical that is located in a space either within the same building where the display is located or virtual, that is to say, in the cloud which access is controlled by predefined keys and names. The processing unit sends by analogical or digital signals the information to be displayed in the display screens as if these were just one image in such a way that these are synchronized and between all of them they display an advertising unit from the cylindrical section that is on the display in one of the preferred embodiments to the external walls of the display; or well in other preferred embodiments from the screens placed outside of the building where the screen are placed to the display which are inside the building thanks to the fact that the modem receives the signal of the information that is projected on them. To exchange the information that is displayed, just modify the information on the logical processing unit and with it the displayed advertising changes immediately.

[0034] Some of the advantages of this technology are:

[0035] a) Avoids contamination of cardboard, paper, plastic that is exchanged in conventional displays.

[0036] b) updates promotions, articles, benefits, programs, advertisement, price labels, etc., in real time, etc.

[0037] c) efficiency in synchronization time of the promotions and prices, since it does not depend on human personnel to make a physical visit to exchange advertisement.

[0038] d) allows to present marketing schemes for short period of time, for example 10-minute promotions, 15, 1 hours, to support various product offers.

[0039] e) allows to make the communication channels efficient between the customers and providers of services or products.

[0040] f) As the display is modular, it adapts to spaces either by increasing or decreasing the number of screens that make up the display walls.

[0041] Having sufficiently described my invention which I consider as a novelty and therefore I claim my exclusive property the content in the following claims:
