Abstract
Disclosed is a three dimensional action sign comprising at least one three dimensional simulated object and at least two independent ways for producing separate actions in the sign. Preferably the object is of a simulated piece of meat disposed on a cooking grill, a simulated charcoal fire and the separate actions include the causing of a flame to rise from the simulated piece of meat and smoke to rise from the simulated charcoal fire.
Claims9
A three-dimensional action sign comprising a three-dimensional tableau of a product to be advertised and independent means for producing at least two separate visible actions in said sign, said independent means comprising means for producing a flame and means for producing smoke,
- said tableau is of a simulated piece of meat disposed on a grill over a simulated charcoal fire;
- said means for producing a flame causes a flame to rise from said piece of meat;
- and
- said means for producing smoke causes smoke to rise from simulated charcoal fire.
A three-dimensional action sign comprising:
- (a) a three-dimensional tableau of a product to be advertised, said tableau including a piece of simulated meat disposed on a grill over a simulated charcoal fire;
- (b) means for producing a plurality of separate visible actions in said sign, said means including:
- (i) means for intermittently producing a flame, said flame appearing to rise from said simulated meat;
- (ii) means for intermittently producing smoke, said smoke appearing to rise from said simulated charcoal fire;
- (iii) means for recirculating said smoke;
- (iv) lighting means for simulating burning fat in said charcoal fire, said lighting means including light bulbs and means for lighting up said light bulbs intermittently and at different times;
- and
- (c) a transparent shield covering said tableau, said shield in part defining the volume in which said smoke is recirculated.
