Abstract

This invention covers a display system which includes modular deployable display units, a stand, a power source, a data input device and a display support. Each unit includes a housing, a spool assembly, a flexible electronic display member, an electrical cable and a connecting system for connecting the units to the stand and to one another, in an end to end arrangement. The assembly is mounted within the housing and includes a spool having opposite ends, to which the spool is rotatably mounted. The flexible member includes LEDs for displaying a programmable message. The flexible member has an end coupled to the spool and is displaceable between a wound configuration where the member is wound onto the spool and an unwound configuration where the member is unwound from the spool. A free end of the member is coupled to the support for displaying the message.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A modular deployable display unit comprising:

a spool having a pair of opposite ends and a longitudinal axis extending between the ends, the spool defining an axis of rotation about which the spool is rotatable;
a flexible electronic display member which is configured to display a programmable message, the flexible electronic display member being releasably coupled to the spool and being displaceable between:
a wound configuration wherein the flexible electronic display member is wound onto the spool;
and an unwound configuration wherein the flexible electronic display member is unwound from the spool;
at least one electrical cable for supplying electrical energy to the flexible electronic display member;
and
connecting means including at least one connecting formation configured for physically releasably connecting the modular deployable display unit to an additional modular deployable display unit, in an end to end arrangement.
