Abstract

The device exhibits images of products to be advertised mounted continually rotatable about axes arranged in a space in any manner, consisting of a supporting framework provided, at least at one end thereof, with a fixed element having an extended surface in transparent material, adapted to support images to be exhibited and, in a position facing the image-bearing element, with at least one rotatable element, bearing colors and other images, associated with a pivot freely rotatable on a support rigidly associated with the framework. The rotatable element is subject to continuous rotations alternating in both directions according to present angles, with respect to said fixed image-bearing element, by means of a miniaturized electronic circuit, independently powered by a battery and adapted to cause said pivot to rotate by magnetic repulsion between an intermittently powered coil and a permanent magnet.

Device for exhibiting advertizing images of objects to be advertized continuously rotatable about axes arranged in a space, said device comprising:

a supporting framework,
at least one fixed element rigidly associated with said supporting framework,
at least one first image supported by said fixed element,
at least one support member rigidly associated with said framework,
at least one shaft rotatably connected to said support member and having a shaft axis,
at least one rotatable element rigidly associated with said shaft,
at least one second image supported by said rotatable element,
support means rigidly associated with said shaft, and,
counterweight means attached to said support means, said device further comprising electronic circuit means comprising;
first magnetic means rigidly associated with said supporting framework and having a first magnetic polarity,
second magnetic means rigidly associated with said support means and having a second magnetic polarity, said second magnetic polarity being identical to said first magnetic polarity, said counterweight means being adapted for balancing said second magnetic means on said support means,
at least one battery powering at least one of said first magnetic means and said second magnetic means, said first magnetic means and said second magnetic means repelling each other upon said battery powering at least one of said first magnetic means and said second magnetic means thereby causing rotational movement of said rotatable element, said second image, said support means, said second magnetic means and said counterweight means with respect to said fixed element and said first image about said shaft axis.
