- the invention relates to a street sign consisting of a box, the external surface of which is made of a transparent material (plastic, glass etc.) whilst in its internal part a sound reproduction apparatus is located which can operate with or without a remote control.
- street signs are made of a parallel flat metal upon which the street name is written. Said street signs are usually located on buildings in the corners of the streets.
- the street signs have double purposes, i.e. functional and honorary. Contrary to the above described technique of construction and placement, the conventional street signs fulfill only the functional purpose, i.e. showing the name of the streets, squares, and other places and facilitating the traffic of people.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the box of the street sign with a lit surface according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is a perspective view of the internal design of the box of the street sign in Figure 1, with a lighting apparatus and a sound reproduction apparatus, and loudspeakers.
- the street sign (Fig. 1) includes a box, the side 1 of which is metal to provide more resistance and being waterproof.
- a general system operation switch 9 On the side 1 of the street sign there are a general system operation switch 9, a sound volume configuration potentiometer 10, a mode control switch 11 (selection of radio, tape or MP3), a switch 12 for turning on and off a lamp and a connector pin 13 for connecting a battery to an external charger.
- solar cells 6 for charging the battery are located on the upper external side of the box.
- On the front external surface 2 of the box there is a portrait 3 of an honored person, or the depiction of a subject, corresponding to the naming of the street, whilst below the depiction the street name 4 is written.
- the street number of a building could also be shown when the street sign is located in front of a specific building, whether or not the building shares the same name.
- a lighting fixture 5 is located to illuminate the street sign mostly at night to be easily visible by people.
- the lighting fixture 5 could be a typical lamp, a neon lamp or another type of lamp of a desired luminous density and electricity consumption. It is powered by the battery, which could be recharged by the connector pin 13 or by the solar cells 6.
- a sound reproduction apparatus 7 is also located, which is connected to the loudspeaker 8. Alternatively, a radio receiver circuit 14 is located. Inside the sound reproduction apparatus 7, there is a storage medium 15 for storing any desired acoustic message.
- the sound reproduction apparatus 7 can be operated manually or by a remote control.
- any interested person could find more information related to the naming of the street or in general related to the place where this street is located, or any other useful information.
- the object of the present invention should not be limited to the above described example. The accomplishment of this invention is also possible in other constructive ways, methods, fittings and machinery within the scope of the present specification.
