An advertising sign bracket that allows quick and simple replacement of a display panel while at the same time preventing damage to both the display panel as well as the complete advertising structure from strong winds. The free swinging provided by the bracket allows for a blow-through pivotal sign attached to a support structure to rotate along a horizontal axis, without the vertical display panel leaving the assembly while swinging freely.

A thin light-transmitting substrate showing high thermal conduction efficiency, and having a function of raising surface temperature thereof is provided.

The light-transmitting substrate of the present invention comprises a substrate that transmits at least a light of a predetermined wavelength, and a conductor pattern that is disposed on the substrate, and generates heat to raise temperature of the surface of the substrate when it is supplied with an electric current. The conductor pattern is directly disposed on the substrate without any adhesive layer.

Basketball backboard and rim covers are described. An example basketball backboard and rim cover includes a main body that has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a front, a back, and defines a recess and an opening. The recess extends from the back toward the front. The opening is defined on the front and provides access to the recess. The second portion contacts the first portion and extends away from the front of the first portion. The second portion has a first end, a second end, and defines a chamber that extends from the opening defined by the first portion toward the second end of the second portion.

A vented LED display is described including an LED display panel having a plurality of LEDs disposed thereon and defining a plurality of vent slots between the plurality of LEDs, each of the plurality of vent slots having a vent height. The vented LED display also includes a unitary injection-molded vent having a plurality of louvers and coupled to the LED display panel such that each louver corresponds to at least one vent slot and includes a louver length extending downwardly to at least 75% of the vent height of the corresponding vent slot.

Certain embodiments disclose a corral and enclosure defined by three members having an opening configured to hold one or more shopping carts and display one or more advertisements, with two substantially parallel walls of different lengths and advertisement panels affixed on the walls, such that they are staggered. The staggered arrangement of the at least two advertisement panels facilitates better visibility and allows the simultaneous viewing of at least two advertisement panels. The longer member also further protects vehicles parked on its side from colliding with shopping carts.

A method for making a modular realty signpost comprises providing a first vertical sign component made from extruded vinyl tubing and a second horizontal sign component made from extruded vinyl tubing, said horizontal component sized and designed to intersect and connect within the vertical component. The method makes angled cuts into one end of the vertical component and at least one end of the horizontal component, heats the angled cuts and then folds them together to form tapered tips to at least one end of said components.

A channel letter has a rear surface for mounting against a raceway, wall, or a structure for supporting the signage, and sheet metal sides defining the figuration of the letter or shape to be depicted. A lighting element is positioned against the rear surface of the enclosure, and a lens is retained to the open front of the enclosure. The lens is secured with a retainer cap and a plurality of retainer clips. Each of the retainer clips comprises as least one side including an outwardly extending leg for retention with the retainer cap.

A display unit waterproof structure for use with an outdoor display unit to prevent water from intruding thereto is introduced. The display unit waterproof structure includes a plurality of blind via elements arranged at the periphery of a casing of the outdoor display unit; a plurality of resilient strips arranged at the periphery of the casing and each having at least a through hole corresponding in position to the blind via elements; an abutting portion annularly disposed at the periphery of a rear plate of the outdoor display unit, corresponding in position to the resilient strips, and having a plurality of fixing holes corresponding to the through holes and the blind via elements, respectively; and a plurality of seal fixing elements penetrating the fixing holes and the through holes to thereby be fixed to the blind via elements, respectively, such that the casing and rear plate shorten resilient strips.

A parking space sign system that is placed in a parking space at the interior end and includes a U-shaped flexible bracket defining a base and two opposing arms projecting from the base, a pair of frame mounts adapted for mounting to the projecting arms, at least one sign panel having indicia thereon for placement in one of the frame mounts and an end cap for each end of each frame mount to secure the frame mounts to the flexible bracket. The flexible brackets are preferably made from a rubber-based material used for tires.

The invention relates to a display arrangement including a foot which supports a plurality of panels, which are flexibly interconnected by means of connecting elements, a lifting device and a receiving device that can be lowered into the ground. The receiving device is designed to receive the panels, folded together, including the foot and the lifting device. The lifting device is designed to raise the panels out of the receiving device and to lower the panels into the receiving device. The panels can be folded together in a barrel shape around the foot and in particular also around the lifting device. The receiving device is designed to receive the panels folded together in a barrel shape around the foot and more particularly also around the lifting device.
