Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a new set of mechanisms using electronic devices for communicating and displaying, for example, moving image information in the advertising and entertainment businesses. [Background technology]

[0002] Traditionally, video equipment such as displays and mobile terminals have been used to display moving images for advertising or show purposes, and recently the use of video equipment in advertising and entertainment has been expanding.

[0003] Control of moving image display using such video equipment is performed using a control device or a communication device.

[0004] Recently, a type of display medium called electronic paper has emerged as a type of video device. In recent years, there has been a trend toward developing thinner and lighter electronic paper.

[0005] Furthermore, as a secondary battery that serves as an energy supply source, there is a technology known as a lithium-sulfur battery, which uses the alkali metal lithium (Li) as the negative electrode and sulfur (S) as the positive electrode.

[0006] There is also a technology called GPS that uses satellite communications to communicate location information.

[0007] There is also a technology known as a Peltier cooling device, which uses a physical phenomenon known as the Peltier effect, in which the heat absorption and heat release surfaces of a metal are switched by changing the direction of an electric current.

[0008] [Patent Document 1] Patent 7528386 Electronic paper and protective film [Patent Document 2] Patent Publication No. 2023-133825 Video display switching system using control device and communication device [Patent Document 3] Patent Publication 2010-226000 Peltier cooling device [Patent Document 4] Patent Publication No. 2025-070279 Lithium-sulfur battery and its manufacturing method [Patent Document 5] Patent Publication No. 2025-035860 GPS device-based operation device Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0009] However, in performances that utilize such conventional mechanisms, there is currently no mechanism that is configured to efficiently perform moving image performances, for example, by setting up a single display device regardless of location, by selecting appropriate elements based on location, timing, and content to perform a moving image performance, by efficiently supplying power to the display and peripheral devices, or by cooling hot displays, batteries, peripheral devices, or the people carrying the display.

[0010] Incidentally, it is also conceivable that such a display device could be used in a mobile display form, such as an advertising vehicle, to perform the above-mentioned performance.

[0011] However, with conventional mechanisms that use electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for display, it is difficult to perform moving image performances on moving objects in areas where vehicles and drones are prohibited, and conventional mobile display mechanisms may be considered dangerous depending on the region, laws, etc.

[0012] Furthermore, with conventional mechanisms that use electronic devices to display video information and communicate for the display, it may be possible to specify the timing, content, and location of a video performance, for example, in an entertainment venue, but it is difficult to control the entire process in a wide-area advertising campaign.

[0013] Furthermore, it is difficult to efficiently utilize the power source required to maintain the activity of the conventional mechanism group that uses electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for the display, in terms of mobility and power efficiency.

[0014] Furthermore, in conventional mechanisms that use electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for display, it is difficult to cool peripheral devices that have overheated or the personnel managing the display located nearby.

[0015] The present invention relates to a mechanism group that uses electronic devices to display moving image information and perform communication for the display, for example: For example, the objective is to provide a group of mechanisms that use electronic devices to display and communicate with moving image information configured to control the timing, content, and location of moving images, using a mobile display that can be safely operated anywhere.

[0016] The present invention also provides, for example, a battery that is more efficient in terms of the mobility and power efficiency of a display device; A cooling device is provided for cooling the mechanism group including the battery and the display manager.

[0017] The present invention has been invented to solve the problems and objects of the prior art as described above, The mechanism group for displaying moving image information and performing communication for the display using electronic equipment of the present invention includes: A group of mechanisms for displaying and communicating video information using electronic devices in advertising and entertainment businesses, the mechanism group includes a raincoat-type wearable display garment using cloth-type electronic paper; The mechanism group also includes a control device that remotely controls the timing and content of the moving images displayed on the wearable display garment to suit the intentions of the advertiser or promoter, and a communication device associated with the control function of the control device, a GPS communication device that performs communication to assist the operation of the control device in selecting a location for displaying a moving image on the wearable display garment; The mechanism group also includes a battery group that uses small, thin, and stretchable lithium-sulfur batteries for power supply and that are connected to each other in a circuit, and that is shaped to fit the lining of the wearable display clothing; The mechanism group is characterized in that a group of thin, stretchable, flat Peltier-type cooling devices for cooling the mechanism group and the wearer are provided on the lining of the wearable display clothing.

[0018] With this configuration, the moving images on the electronic paper of the wearable display garment can be switched and controlled using integrated information from the control device, communication device, and GPS communication device.

[0019] This allows moving images to be output to the wearable display garment worn by a person at the timing, content, and location intended by the performance operator.

[0020] Therefore, for example, a person can wear a raincoat-type wearable display garment and participate in an advertising performance using moving images in the street.

[0021] In addition, by configuring it in this way, it is possible to connect the circuits between batteries that use small, thin, and stretchable lithium-sulfur batteries, and to form the wearable display device that fits the lining of the clothing. By using a group of batteries, it is not necessary to prepare a separate power source for the mechanisms that use electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for the display, and it is possible to operate the wearable display clothing using only a group of batteries that are small, thin, and stretchable lithium-sulfur batteries connected in a circuit and shaped to fit the lining of the clothing, and it is also possible to improve both the battery charging efficiency and power supply efficiency.

[0022] This allows the wearer to use the mechanism group that displays moving image information and performs communication for the display using electronic devices for a long period of time without requiring charging.

[0023] Therefore, it will be possible to use a group of mechanisms that use electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for display in locations or situations where immediate power supply is not expected, such as disaster areas, for example, to display moving image information during long live performances.

[0024] Furthermore, by configuring it in this manner, it is possible to cool the wearer and the mechanisms that use electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for the display by using a group of thin, flexible, flat Peltier-type cooling devices.

[0025] This prevents the wearer from feeling hot, and also prevents thermal runaway of the mechanisms that use electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for the display.

[0026] Therefore, the wearer can comfortably use the group of mechanisms that use electronic devices to display and communicate for displaying moving image information, for example, outdoors in midsummer or in areas where scorching heat is expected, such as tropical and subtropical regions. [Effects of the Invention]

[0027] According to the present invention, by using electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for the display, a group of mechanisms including an electronic paper, a control device, a communication device, and a GPS communication device, and outputting integrated information from the control device, communication device, and GPS communication device to the electronic paper, it is possible to display moving images at the timing, content, and location intended by the performance operator.

[0028] Furthermore, according to the present invention, by using a battery group that connects small, thin, and stretchable lithium-sulfur batteries in a circuit and that conforms to the lining of the wearable display garment, it is possible to operate the wearable display garment using only a battery group that connects small, thin, and stretchable lithium-sulfur batteries in a circuit and that conforms to the lining of the wearable display garment, without having to provide a separate power source for the mechanism group that uses electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for the display.In addition, by improving both the battery charging efficiency and power supply efficiency, it is possible to operate the mechanism group that uses electronic devices to display moving image information for a long period of time with a short charge.

[0029] Furthermore, according to the present invention, by using a group of Peltier-type, thin, stretchable, planar cooling devices, it is possible to cool the group of mechanisms that use electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for the display, as well as the wearer, and it is possible to reduce the thermal load on the group of mechanisms that use electronic devices to display moving image information and communicate for the display, as well as the wearer.

[0033] 1 to 3, reference numeral 10 denotes a group of mechanisms that, as a whole, display moving image information of the present invention and perform communication for the display using electronic equipment.
