Apparatus for projecting images in sequence

An apparatus (1) for projecting images in continuous sequence, comprising:

• a light source (11) positioned such as to direct a beam of light in a direction of projection;
• a plurality of filters (4) with impressed shapes, able to project images corresponding to said shapes when they are traversed by the light beam;
• a conveyor element (5) defining a closed line and movable in continuous cycle, the filters (4) being associated to the conveyor element in such a way as to intercept the light beam for generating an animated effect in the projection, said closed line defined by the conveyor element (5) having at least one rectilinear portion positioned perpendicularly to the light beam, in such a way that the filters (4) intercept the light beam perpendicularly thereto, in their movement along said rectilinear portion of the conveyor element,
• characterized in that said filters (4) are arranged on the conveyor element (5) in such a way that each filter (4) has lateral portions overlapped to correspondent lateral portions of the adjacent filters (4), in its movement along said rectilinear portion of the conveyor element.
