Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic signage technology, and specifically to an electronic signage device. Background Technology
[0002] Signage is a standardized board-style system designed to achieve a specific visual effect and facilitate customer convenience. Signage serves to mark and warn, primarily conveying its function visually. For example, text communicates information, while symbols have symbolic, directional, and suggestive functions. The style of the text can express personality, background, and meaning. Form and symbols together express symbolic and structural meaning. Signage is also a medium for information transmission, serving advertising and warning functions. Currently, most signage is electronic, offering better display effects.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN214955849U discloses an electronic information signboard. This component includes a signboard assembly, which is fixedly connected to a support rod. A support base is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the support rod, and several casters are fixedly mounted at the bottom of the support base. The outer shell of the signboard assembly is made of aluminum using a one-piece molding process. An inner liner made of mirror-finished stainless steel is fixedly mounted inside the signboard assembly. The light source inside the signboard assembly is an LED light strip, which is spirally fixed inside the signboard assembly. A power interface is fixedly mounted on the support rod and electrically connected to the light source. This invention provides good light illumination and avoids light leakage, thus improving upon traditional electronic information signs. The improvement involves incorporating LED light strips as the light source within the signboard itself. This ensures low energy consumption and safety. The spiral arrangement within the signboard enhances the illumination range, angle, and effect, preventing shadows. A mirrored stainless steel inner liner further improves the effect through mirror reflection. While traditional electronic information signs utilize a one-piece molded inner liner with fewer rough edges and no seams to prevent light leakage, this design suffers from dust accumulation on the display screen over time, requiring regular cleaning and reducing its practicality. Therefore, we propose an electronic signboard device. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an electronic signage device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

The bottom and top surfaces of the support rod are respectively connected to fixing buckles, and the top surface of the base and the bottom surface of the mounting plate are respectively provided with slots.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a solar panel, the solar panel can absorb solar energy and convert it into electrical energy to provide power for the e-ink screen, achieving the purpose of energy conservation and environmental protection. When used indoors, the operator can press the buckle button on the base to release the fixing buckle from the slot. At this time, the operator can remove the electronic sign. The operator can then put the removed mounting plate into the charging compartment to charge the battery, improving its practicality.
[0018] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:
[0019] By setting up a movable plate, when the e-ink screen needs cleaning, staff can push the movable plate to move it, which in turn drives the cleaning brush to clean the dust from the e-ink screen, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of dust cleaning. By setting up a motor, when dust needs cleaning, staff can start the motor, which drives the drive shaft to rotate, causing the lead screw to rotate, which in turn causes the movable plate to move horizontally back and forth, achieving the effect of cleaning dust from the e-ink screen and reducing the frequency and difficulty of dust cleaning for staff.
[0020] By installing a protective plate, operators can easily remove it when the cleaning brush needs to be replaced, facilitating brush replacement and cleaning and improving usability. A battery provides power to the electronic signage, ensuring stable operation. A central controller manages the content displayed on the e-ink screen and supports remote content updates, further enhancing usability. Solar panels absorb solar energy and convert it into electricity to power the e-ink screen, achieving energy conservation and environmental protection. Attached Figure Description
