20190383441 · 2019-12-19 ·

A post is vertically oriented and has upward and downward extents, back and front regions, and inner and outer regions. A load is configured for functional purposes. A support assembly couples the post and the load. The support assembly has interior and exterior sections and an intermediate section there between. The interior section has an inner leg in contact with the inner region of the post. The interior section has an outer leg in contact with the outer region of the post. The interior section has a front leg in contact with the inner region of the post. The back region of the post is out of contact with the interior section of the support assembly. The exterior section of the support assembly is out of contact with post.

Sign mounting for barrier post

A sign mounting for mounting a sign on top of a barrier post that includes a body having an inner side for positioning against a barrier post and an outer side for supporting a sign; and a mounting channel formed on the inner side of the body. The mounting channel allows the sign mounting to be mounted onto and supported by a spline of the barrier post. The mounting channel is open at a lower end and closed at an upper end and has a relatively narrow vertical opening at an inner side extending from the lower end to the upper end for a spline to extend through, and a relatively wider inner portion extending laterally beyond the opening on each side of the vertical opening within which a spline can be positioned. The sign mounting may form part of a mounting kit that includes a barrier post.

SPINNING INDICATOR FOR PROSPECTIVE PASSENGERS AT TRANSIT STOPS AND METHOD OF USE
20190340961 · 2019-11-07 ·

A spinnable indicator for transit stops has a disc having a front side and a rear side, the front side having a reflective portion and a non-reflective portion, and a mounting bracket, wherein the disc is spinnably coupled to the mounting bracket, the mounting bracket mountable to a pole or beam. The reflective portion creates high visibility at night. In one method of use, a prospective passenger approaches a spinnable indicator, and, when a bus or other transit unit is approaching, spins the spinnable indicator. The reflective portion on the front side of the spinnable indicator alerts the driver that a prospective passenger is waiting transit.

DISPLAY

A display assembly includes a cylindrical rod having a first end and a second end; a panel holder defining a slot and a first passageway; and a panel disposed partially disposed within the slot. The first end of the cylindrical rod is within the first passageway such that the panel and panel holder are rotatable with respect to the rod. Accordingly, when the second end of the rod is inserted into the ground, the panel and panel holder are rotatable about a generally vertical axis

Wind-resistant sign assembly
10438519 · 2019-10-08 ·

A wind-resistant sign assembly that includes vertical support members coupled to multiple horizontally oriented sign panels that substantially span a length separating the support members. The sign panels are disposed in a static position, wherein they are disposed at a substantially planar configuration with one another and are operably configured to individually rotate to a dynamic position when exposed to a force generated by incoming wind. The dynamic position includes the front surface of one of the plurality of sign panels disposed at an acute angle with respect to the front surface of at least one other adjacent sign panel, thereby defining a gap between said sign panels to permit the entry and egress of the wind through the sign, and return, through use of one or more hinge and spring members, to the static position.

Local light-emitting road sign board apparatus
10410550 · 2019-09-10 · ·

A local light-emitting road sign board apparatus is disclosed. Local light-emitting panels, displaying road guides in the form of a character, numeral, symbol, or figure, are independently inserted and installed in openings for road sign units that are provided in a main substrate. A sub substrate and a retroreflective sheet are laminated and bonded on each local light-emitting panel so as to form a road sign unit. A retroreflective sheet is also bonded on the main substrate so as to form the background of a road sign unit. When one of road sign units fails, it is possible to simply separate, repair or replace, and reinstall only the failed road sign unit while leaving the others intact.
