Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an air injection type advertising device, and more particularly to an air injection type advertising device that can more freely control the vertical movement of a sub-advertising shaped object provided to protrude from a main advertising shaped object.

Background Art

[0002] Generally, an air injection type advertising device means an advertising medium that visually allows viewers to recognize the shape of a shaped object and the advertising copy engraved on its outer surface by injecting and expanding air inside the advertising shaped object. At this time, the advertising shaped object is manufactured in various forms including a cylindrical shape. Such an air injection type advertising device can not only be folded and stored after discharging the air inside the advertising shaped object when not in use, but also be widely used in various business offices, sports meets, picnics, meetings of specific groups, etc. because of its simple installation.

[0003] Among air injection type advertising devices, there is a type that includes a main advertising shaped object (e.g., human body shape, item shape (e.g., kettle body), animal character shape, etc.) in a form where the advertising shaped object constituting it has vertical uprightness, and a sub-advertising shaped object (e.g., human arm shape, shape of another item associated with the item (e.g., mouth of the kettle), animal arm or leg shape, etc.) provided to protrude therefrom. In this case, the air injection type advertising device is configured such that the inside of the main advertising shaped object and the inside of the sub-advertising shaped object communicate with each other, and air is supplied to both by one blower.

[0004] At this time, a technique for maximizing the advertising effect by the vertical movement of the sub-advertising shaped object constituting the air injection type advertising device can be applied. Conventionally, however, holes were made in a part of the sub-advertising shaped object to repeatedly control the operation and release of the blower, or another vertical movement mechanism was inserted to realize the vertical movement of the sub-advertising shaped object.

[0005] However, the prior art has problems that when the blower is deactivated, the main advertising structure having verticality on both the top and bottom tilts or falls to one side, and there are problems of wasteful costs and manufacturing time for fabricating and installing another vertical movement mechanism.

And, detailed descriptions of parts not related to the description of the embodiments in the drawings are omitted.

[0027] Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0028] FIG. 1 is a perspective view schematically showing an air injection type advertising device according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the air injection type advertising device shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view schematically showing a state in which the air injection type advertising device shown in FIG. 1 is partially cut open.

[0029] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, an air injection type advertising device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a power supply unit 110, a blower means 120, a main advertising shaped object 130, a sub advertising shaped object 140, and a control unit 160. In this case, the air injection type advertising device 100 may further include a partition film 150.

[0030] The power supply unit 110 is configured to provide a driving power supply for driving the air injection type advertising device 100. More specifically, the power supply unit 110 is configured to apply power to the blower means 120 and the control unit 160.

[0031] The power supply unit 110 may be a lithium-based battery and may be configured to be rechargeable. At the same time, the power supply unit 110 may be provided outside the housing 101 instead of inside the housing 101. For reference, the housing 101 has a box shape, and the blower means 120 (more specifically, the first blower 121 described later) is accommodated therein, and the main advertising shaped object 130 is provided on the upper side in a structure covering the inside thereof, and may further have structures such as an air injection pipe and a sleeve pipe.

[0032] Since many techniques are known for the power supply unit 110, detailed descriptions are omitted.

[0033] The blower means 120 is configured to inject air into the interior of the apparatus by being supplied with power from the power supply unit 110.

[0034] The blower means 120 is provided inside the housing 101 on which the main advertising model 130 is provided on its upper side, and includes a first blower 121 that injects air into the interior of the main advertising model 130, and a second blower 122 that is provided on the inner wall 130a of the main advertising model 130 while closing the outside air hole 132 so that outside air is supplied from the outside air hole 132 to be described later, and injects air into the interior of the sub - advertising model 140.

[0035] In this case, the second blower 122 is attached and installed on the inner wall 130a of the main advertising model 130 via attachment means. Thereby, when the second blower 122 is provided on the sub - advertising model 140, it prevents the inclination phenomenon or the unnatural movement phenomenon of the up - and - down movement of the sub - advertising model 140 that may occur due to its weight.

[0036] At this time, the attachment means may be a pair of Velcro (registered trademark) members 122a, 135 having a donut shape that are respectively attached and installed on the inner wall 130a of the main advertising model 130 and the lower surface of the second blower 122 (which means the surface through which outside air is drawn in and drawn out), but is not limited thereto. By having a donut shape, the donut - shaped empty central portion serves as a flow path for the second blower 122 to draw in and draw out outside air. The Velcro (registered trademark) member 135 can be provided with a mesh - shaped auxiliary net 135a at its central portion to prevent foreign matter in the outside air from entering the interior of the sub - advertising model 140.

[0037] The main advertising model 130 is configured to stand up and expand upward by being supplied with air from the blower means 120, and is configured in a cylindrical shape having an up - and - down directionality during expansion, and is made of a flexible material.

[0038] The main advertisement-shaped object 130 can have a predetermined shape with verticality (e.g., the body shape of a police officer), and is composed of a flexible material such as an airtight fabric, a partially breathable fabric, or a resin film.

[0039] The main advertisement-shaped object 130 is provided with at least one installation hole 131 on its outer surface. At the same time, the main advertisement-shaped object 130 is provided with the outside air hole 132 on the inner wall 130a below the installation hole 131. The installation hole 131 and the outside air hole 132 may each be composed of a combination of a large number of holes.

[0040] The sub-advertisement-shaped object 140 is inflated into a predetermined shape (e.g., an arm shape with a guiding rod) by air supplied from the blower means 120, protrudes outside the main advertisement-shaped object 130, is composed of a flexible material, and at least one is provided.

[0041] The sub-advertisement-shaped object 140 is composed of a flexible material such as an airtight fabric, a partially breathable fabric, or a resin film.

[0042] The sub-advertisement-shaped object 140 is provided at a plurality of locations (e.g., an arm shape with a guiding rod and an arm shape with a handcuff respectively), and is provided so that the inside communicates with the installation hole 131 while individually closing the installation hole 131.

[0043] The partition film 150 separates the inside of the main advertisement-shaped object 130 from the inside of the sub-advertisement-shaped object 140 so that the air flow inside the main advertisement-shaped object 130 and the air flow inside the sub-advertisement-shaped object 140 are formed independently of each other, and is provided inside the main advertisement-shaped object 130.

[0044] The partition film 150 is composed of a flexible material such as an airtight fabric, a partially breathable fabric, or a resin film.

[0045] In this case, the partition film 150 is provided on the inner wall 130a of the main advertisement-shaped object 130. When air is supplied from the blower means 120 and the main advertisement-shaped object 130 expands, at least one or more reinforcing wire rods 151 having an arc shape bulging toward the inside of the main advertisement-shaped object 130 are inserted therein so as to maintain a dome shape that bulges toward the inside of the main advertisement-shaped object 130 without being in close contact with the installation hole 131 side. The reinforcing wire rod 151 is made of a resin material, a metal material, or the like.

[0046] At this time, one installation hole 131 and one outside air hole 132 below it are located inside the dome shape of the partition film 150. As a result, the air flow inside the main advertisement-shaped object 130 is formed by the operation of the first blower 121, and the air flow inside the sub-advertisement-shaped object 140 is formed by the operation of the second blower 122.

[0047] The main advertisement-shaped object 130, the sub-advertisement-shaped object 140, and the partition film 150 can be connected by an interlaced sewing method, but are not limited thereto, and each component may be connected by a zipper method, a Velcro (registered trademark) method, or the like.

[0048] The control unit 160 is configured to control the operation of the blower means 120.

[0049] More specifically, the control unit 160 is configured to constantly operate the first blower 121 and, while the first blower 121 is constantly operating, repeatedly operate and deactivate the second blower 122 according to a pre-input pattern. Thereby, the main advertisement-shaped object 130 to which air is supplied from the first blower 121 can firmly maintain its uprightness in the vertical direction without the need to stop the drive of the blower, and the sub-advertisement-shaped object 140 to which air is supplied from the second blower 122 can be independently controlled from the main advertisement-shaped object 130 and move naturally in the vertical direction.

[0050] Furthermore, when a plurality of the sub - advertisement models 140 are provided, the control unit 160 is configured to repeatedly operate and de - operate each of the second blowers 122 provided so as to be one - to - one matched with each of the sub - advertisement models 140 according to a pre - input pattern. Thereby, it is possible to realize individual vertical movements of the plurality of sub - advertisement models 140 provided with a multi - limb structure protruding outward. When a complex character is embodied in the air - injection type advertisement device 100 (for example, when the main - advertisement model 130 has a crab or octopus shape and the sub - advertisement model 140 has a crab leg or octopus leg shape), it is possible to produce a natural shape change, and the advertisement effect can be maximized.

[0051] The control unit 160 can be electrically connected to the first blower 121 and the second blower 122 via electric wires 161 and 162.

[0052] As described above, while firmly maintaining the form in which the air - injection type advertisement device has the uprightness of the main - advertisement model, it is possible to more freely control the vertical movement of the sub - advertisement model provided to protrude from the main - advertisement model without the need to provide another vertical movement mechanism.

[0053] As described above, the present invention has been described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings, but this is merely illustrative, and it should be understood that various modifications and equivalent other embodiments are possible based on ordinary knowledge in the field to which the technology belongs. Therefore, the true technical protection scope of the present invention must be determined according to the scope of the claims described below based on the specific content of the above - described invention.
