摘要

The advertising cards are carried in slots (7) on a moving belt (8). The belt is carried on two pulleys placed one above the other and separated by the height of the display. The unit is housed in an enclosure (5) with a transparent face. Doors (2) at the top of the unit open by a coin operated release mechanism (1), allowing access to place a card in the supports on the belt. The belt is displaced by a motor under control of a microprocessor. The microprocessor advances the belt at regular intervals to give display for a certain time. When the belt turns under the lower pulley the card falls from the supports on the belt for collection from the bottom of the cabinet. USE/ADVANTAGE Automatically collects payment and removes card from display after selected time.
