High-rise building with large scale display device inside transparent glass exterior

摘要

A high-rise building with a large scale dot-matrix display device is disclosed. The glass panels arranged in rows and columns form a curtain wall structured transparent outer wall (12) extending over an exterior of a building (10). Each panel is installed apart from end portions of floor slabs to form a void space therebetween. A plurality of louver structured modules (22) are arranged within the void space in rows and columns to form a large scale display area. Each module (22) has a louver-like structure formed of a plurality of posts (24) arranged in substantially parallel relationship and a plurality of parallel, uniformly spaced beams (26) connecting said adjacent posts (24). A plurality of LED combination lamps (28) are mounted on each beam (26) at uniform pitches as those between the adjacent beams (26). The LEDs are driven by drive circuits disposed in each beam (26). The vertical guide members (44) are fixed to the end portions of the floor slabs (20). The guide members (44) are arranged substantially in parallel relationship so that the modules (22) are supported between the adjacent guides (44) at the both lateral sides thereof. A plurality of vertical mullion members (48) are arranged to support the glass panels (12). The vertical guide members (44) are spaced apart from each of the mullions (48) by support members (46).
