Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of wayfinding signs, and in particular relates to an information guidance device for libraries. Background Technology

[0002] Wayfinding signs (also known as directional signs, guide signs, or index signs) are a type of multifunctional advertising signage that uses visual information to guide people in their spaces and provide information. They are commonly found in public places such as shopping malls, scenic spots, campuses, and libraries. Through elements such as text, symbols, and arrows, they help people quickly identify directions, understand the functions of a region, or obtain safety tips.

[0003] Existing information wayfinding devices for libraries suffer from poor installation compatibility. Due to the different structures of installation locations such as ceilings and walls, and the fact that each type of information wayfinding device can only be adapted to a specific installation method, it is necessary to purchase multiple models to meet the installation needs of different locations. This "one model per location" situation not only increases the variety of purchases but also drives up the overall cost. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0024] Example

[0025] This embodiment describes an information guidance device for libraries, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, it includes a vertically arranged sign body 7, which has a rectangular plate-like structure.

[0026] The right side wall of the signboard body 7 is provided with a side fixing plate 4 that slides vertically therewith. Two guide rails 12, symmetrically distributed at front-to-back intervals, are vertically fixed on the left side wall of the side fixing plate 4. An embedded groove is formed on the right side wall of the signboard body 7, and sliding grooves for the guide rails 12 to slide vertically are formed on the front and rear side walls of the embedded groove. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the guide rail 12 has an L-shaped cross-section. The guide rail 12 and the slide groove are used to combine the main body 7 of the way sign with the side fixing plate 4, and guide the main body 7 of the way sign to move up and down, so as to prevent the main body 7 of the way sign and the side fixing plate 4 from tilting during the movement. Of course, the main body 7 of the way sign and the side fixing plate 4 can also be connected by a T-shaped slide rail and a T-shaped slide groove.

[0027] A positioning block 5 is fixed to the upper end of the left side wall of the embedded groove, and a stop block 6 is fixed to the lower end of the left side wall of the side fixing plate 4 to block the positioning block 5; Figure 1 As shown, when the sign body 7 moves downward, the stop block 6 moves upward along the inner groove until the sign body 7 moves to the appropriate position. At this point, the positioning block 5 is blocked by the stop block 6, thereby blocking and positioning the moved sign body 7 to prevent the guide rail 12 from coming out of the groove and to prevent the sign body 7 from separating from the combination with the side fixing plate 4.

[0028] The top of the side fixing plate 4 is horizontally fixed with the upper fixing plate 1, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the right end of the upper fixing plate 1 is fixed to the top of the side fixing plate 4, so that the side fixing plate 4 and the upper fixing plate 1 are combined to form an L-shaped structure.

[0029] A rear fixing plate 2 is vertically fixed to the upper fixing plate 1, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the rear fixing plate 2 is fixed to the bottom of the upper fixing plate 1, and the rear side wall of the rear fixing plate 2 is flush with the rear side wall of the upper fixing plate 1; the rear fixing plate 2 and the upper fixing plate 1 are combined to form an L-shaped structure.

[0030] Several through holes are provided on the upper fixing plate 1, the rear fixing plate 2, and the side fixing plate 4, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the upper fixing plate 1 and the rear fixing plate 2 have three through holes evenly spaced along their length, and the side fixing plate 4 has two through holes evenly distributed along its length. The information guidance device for this library can attach the upper fixing plate 1 to the ceiling and fix it to the ceiling by screws through the through holes. Similarly, the rear fixing plate 2 can be attached to the wall and fixed to the wall by screws through the through holes. When the information guidance device needs to be installed laterally, the side fixing plate 4 can be attached to a column, bookshelf, etc., and fixed to the column, bookshelf, etc., by screws through the through holes. The information guidance device for this library can use the upper fixing plate 1, rear fixing plate 2, and side fixing plate 4 according to different installation locations, making it suitable for various installation positions.

[0031] To elaborate further, such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment preferably includes a positioning pin 13. The main body 7 of the wayfinding sign has a through hole that runs from front to back for inserting the positioning pin 13. The through hole is located at the upper right corner of the main body 7. There is a gap between the positioning pin 13 and the through hole, allowing the positioning pin 13 to move back and forth. The front side wall of the rear fixing plate 2 has a positioning hole 3 for inserting one end of the positioning pin 13. When the main body 7 of the wayfinding sign moves upward until the upper fixing plate 1 is in contact with the top of the main body 7, the positioning hole 3 aligns with the positioning pin 13, and the positioning pin 13 is pushed backward, so that the rear end of the positioning pin 13 is inserted into the positioning hole 3, thereby positioning and locking the upward-moving main body 7 of the wayfinding sign and preventing the main body 7 of the wayfinding sign from sliding down on its own. A positioning ring 14 is fitted onto the positioning pin 13, and a clearance groove is provided on the wall of the through hole to allow the positioning ring 14 to move. Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the positioning ring 14 is located in the clearance groove. When the positioning pin 13 moves back and forth, it will drive the positioning ring 14 to move back and forth in the clearance groove. The bottom of the clearance groove is provided with an installation groove, and an elastic ring 15 for blocking the positioning ring 14 is engaged in the installation groove. Figure 5 As shown, the mounting groove is located at the center of the clearance groove. The elastic ring 15 is engaged in the mounting groove, and the mounting groove positions and installs the elastic ring 15. The inner surface of the elastic ring 15 and the positioning ring 14 are in an interference fit. When the rear end of the positioning pin 13 is pulled out of the positioning hole 3, the positioning ring 14 will squeeze the elastic ring 15 until it passes through the elastic ring 15, so that the positioning ring 14 is located behind the elastic ring 15. The elastic ring 15 blocks the positioning ring 14, preventing the positioning pin 13 from moving on its own. When the rear end of the positioning pin 13 is inserted into the positioning hole 3, the positioning ring 14 will squeeze the elastic ring 15 until it passes through the elastic ring 14. 5. Position the positioning ring 14 in front of the elastic ring 15. The elastic ring 15 blocks the positioning ring 14 to prevent the positioning pin 13 from moving on its own. This solution constitutes a positioning assembly for positioning the side fixing plate 4 after it has been moved. Of course, the positioning assembly can also use screws. The signboard body 7 has threaded holes that are connected front and back and are threaded to the screws. The rear fixing plate 2 has blind holes for inserting the ends of the screws. When the fixing plate 1 is attached to the top of the signboard body 7, the screws are rotated so that the tips of the screws are inserted into the blind holes, thereby positioning the signboard body 7 after it has been moved.

[0032] Two insertion slots 11, aligned front to back, are provided on the left side wall of the main body 7 of the directional sign; as shown... Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the insertion slot 11 is mainly used to store signs. The signs can be made of materials such as plastic or paper. By replacing the signs inside the insertion slot 11, the directional information can be updated in a timely manner. The two insertion slots 11 distributed at the front and back can store signs with different directional information respectively to guide in different directions.

[0033] The main body 7 of the directional sign has observation windows on its front and rear side walls, such as... Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the observation window includes a transparent plate 10. The front and rear side walls of the sign body 7 are respectively provided with openings that communicate with two insertion slots 11. The two openings are fixed with transparent plates 10 to seal them. The transparent plate 10 is mainly made of acrylic, PC, glass and other materials so that people can see the sign content inside the insertion slots 11 through the transparent plate 10.

[0034] To elaborate further, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, this embodiment preferably includes an elastic strip 8, one end of which is fixed to the left side wall of the sign body 7; the upper end of the elastic strip 8 is fixed to the upper end of the left side wall of the sign body 7 by screws, so as to facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the elastic strip 8. In the initial state, the elastic strip 8 is vertically attached to the left side wall of the sign body 7; two sealing strips 9 are fixed on the right side wall of the elastic strip 8 for inserting into the insertion groove 11, and the sealing strips 9 and the insertion groove 11 are in an interference fit; as Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the sealing strip 9 is inserted into the aligned insertion groove 11. The interference fit between the sealing strip 9 and the insertion groove 11 seals and blocks the opening of the insertion groove 11, preventing the sign inside the insertion groove 11 from falling out. In this embodiment, the elastic strip 8 and the sealing strip 9 are made of rubber materials such as natural rubber, silicone rubber, and styrene-butadiene rubber. The rubber material has good elasticity, allowing the elastic strip 8 and the sealing strip 9 to bend and deform freely, so that the sealing strip 9 can effectively seal the opening of the insertion groove 11. This solution constitutes a sealing assembly for sealing the opening of the insertion groove 11. Of course, the sealing assembly can also be a sealing plate. The upper end of the sealing plate is fixed to the left side wall of the sign body 7 with screws, so that the sealing plate is in contact with the left side wall of the sign body 7. By swinging the angle of the sealing plate, the sealing plate can block and seal the opening of the insertion groove 11. The flexibility of the sealing plate swing can be changed by adjusting the tightness of the screws.

[0035] In actual use, first pull the elastic strip 8 to remove the sealing strip 9 from the insertion slot 11, insert the required sign into the insertion slot 11, and then insert the sealing strip 9 back into the insertion slot 11 to seal the opening and prevent the sign from falling out. Then, pull down the sign body 7, guiding it downwards through the cooperation of the guide rail 12 and the slide rail until the positioning block 5 is blocked by the stop block 6, thus positioning the moved sign body 7 and preventing it from falling. After the sign body 7 has moved down, the upper fixing plate 1, the rear fixing plate 2, and the side fixing plate 4 will be exposed for easy installation. The library's information guidance device can attach the upper fixing plate 1 to the ceiling, and screws can be passed through the through holes to secure the upper fixing plate. The upper fixing plate 1 is fixed to the ceiling; the information guidance device of this library can be attached to the wall by screwing the rear fixing plate 2 through the through hole, and then fixed to the wall by screwing the rear fixing plate 2 through the through hole; when the information guidance device of this library needs to be installed sideways, the side fixing plate 4 can be attached to the column, bookshelf, etc., and then fixed to the column, bookshelf, etc. by screwing the side fixing plate 4 through the through hole; after fixing, move the guide sign body 7 upward so that the top of the guide sign body 7 is attached to the upper fixing plate 1, and then push the positioning pin 13 so that the rear end of the positioning pin 13 is inserted into the positioning hole 3, thereby positioning and locking the guide sign body 7 after it is moved upward, preventing the guide sign body 7 from sliding down on its own. By making the upper fixing plate 1, the rear fixing plate 2 or the side fixing plate 4 attached to the guide sign body 7, such as Figure 8 As shown, the screws are concealed and the gaps are reduced to improve the overall aesthetics. The information guidance device used in this library uses upper fixing plate 1, rear fixing plate 2, and side fixing plate 4 respectively according to different installation positions, so that the information guidance device used in this library can be used in a variety of installation positions, thereby reducing the types of procurement and also reducing procurement costs.
