Inside a pair of front and rear side wall panels in the articulating portion, a flexible cover consisting of an elastic plate is disposed, and an elastic sealing member provided on the longitudinal opposite edges of the flexible cover is contacted respectively with the pair of side wall panels by biasing. Under a pair of front and rear ceiling panels in the articulating portion, there is provided a ceiling cover, whose lateral opposite edges are coupled to the upper edge of the flexible cover, and the elastic sealing member provided on the longitudinal opposite edges of the ceiling cover is contacted respectively with the pair of ceiling panels by biasing.

Abstract: An electric light display apparatus of the light blocking type comprising slender discharge tubes arranged in parallel rows on the front side of the apparatus and each divided by openable light blocking members into a multiplicity of sections arranged continuously longitudinally of the tube. The sections are exposed or shielded by the blocking members individually to display the desired characters, illustrations or like images with a collection of bright portions and dark portions. The apparatus is simple in construction and less susceptible to malfunctions and displays images of high luminance which are distinctly perceivable visually without requiring a great power consumption.

Abstract: An apparatus comprises a support plate slanting downward to the rear and attached to a frame, a pair of belts arranged on opposite sides of the support plate along the slant thereof for supporting stacked newspapers thereon together with the support plate, a pushing plate attached to the belts and extending upright from the upper surfaces of the belts, and a drive unit for driving the belts and the pushing plate at a low speed in the direction of delivery of the newspapers. A pile of doubled newspapers placed in an upright position on the support plate and belts with the folds down is supported on the rear side by the pushing plate. The belts, when driven, drop the newspapers one by one off the support plate into an outlet.
