Abstract (en)

A rotating advertising display device consists of a housing suspended for rotation on a support, the side walls of the housing being transparent and mounting advertising transparencies. The side walls are illuminated by an array of elongated lamps orientated parallel to the axis of rotation, with several lamps contributing to the illumination of a given wall. Rotation of the device is achieved by a motor mounted within the housing, operating through a friction drive mechanism.
