BlueflagProtection automatic LED display dampened foot released sign pole systems
The sign pole system disclosed simplifies the FRA requirement by incorporating many features into the sign pole system. The worker operating the pole can quickly raise the pole just by stepping on the lift bar. To lower the pole remove the required safety is done by stepping on the release footstep. The built in LED features will activate only when it is nighttime and when the pole is in the vertical position. The sensitivity to actuate the LED's is adjustable to compensate for night yard overhead lighting. A solar panel keeps the battery charged. When required a pad lock (lock out device) can be inserted into the foot step base to secure the sign pole system in the up position until deemed safe by the worker to remove the sign protection. Manually attaching a night time blue light is no longer required because the LED light is now built into the sign pole and is automatically actuated.

Magnetized decorative fence assembly
A magnetized decorative fence assembly for providing decorative fencing includes a plurality of magnets of a fence post. The plurality of magnets of the fence post engages by magnetism to a plurality of magnets of a housing. An interior of the housing holds a fence roll. An end of the fence roll is positioned in an opening of the housing. The fence roll is pulled out of the housing to display a surface having a variety of decorative illustrations. A bar coupled to the end of the fence roll has a plurality of hooks used to retain the end of the fence roll to a plurality of screws of the fence post. The plurality of hooks can be latched or unlatched to the plurality of screws.
Signage system for structural poles
A signage system is provided for use with load bearing poles. The system includes an upper pole section and a lower pole section, separable from the upper pole section. At least one upper flange block is positioned within the upper pole section and at least one lower flange block is positioned within the lower pole section. A load bearing shaft extends between or through each of the upper flange block and the lower flange block. Signage is coupled to or otherwise associated with the load bearing shaft, the signage being rotatable relative to at least one of the upper and lower pole sections.
System for quickly deploying and collecting visible markers
A device for quickly deploying and collecting visible markers is disclosed. Visible markers can include a base that can support an upright flag for use in sports training, marketing, or traffic/emergency situations. The device for retaining the bases can be comprised of a frame having two vertical legs joined by a horizontal member, which can serve as a handle, at a top portion of each of the two vertical legs. A foot is attached to the bottom end of each of the two vertical legs, each of the feet are at an angle to the corresponding vertical leg to allow feet to be received in apertures of a base device and the angle of the feet retain the base device on the frame.
ILLUMINATED SIGN
An illuminated sign for use in a vehicle wash system, including a base, an upright member extending from the base and having an upper portion and a lower portion, and a head portion connected to the upper portion of the upright member. The illuminated sign includes at least one light source having a first mode and a second mode. The first mode is associated with a first group of vehicle wash services for treating an exterior of a vehicle. The second mode is associated with a second group of vehicle wash services for treating an exterior of a vehicle. The sign includes a sign controller in communication with the at least one light source. The sign controller is configured to enable the first mode in response to detecting a selection of the first group of vehicle wash services. The sign controller is also configured to enable the second mode in response to detecting a selection of the second group of vehicle wash services.

SYSTEM FOR QUICKLY DEPLOYING AND COLLECTING VISIBLE MARKERS
A device for quickly deploying and collecting visible markers is disclosed. Visible markers can include a base that can support an upright flag for use in sports training, marketing, or traffic/emergency situations. The device for retaining the bases can be comprised of a frame having two vertical legs joined by a horizontal member, which can serve as a handle, at a top portion of each of the two vertical legs. A foot is attached to the bottom end of each of the two vertical legs, each of the feet are at an angle to the corresponding vertical leg to allow feet to be received in apertures of a base device and the angle of the feet retain the base device on the frame. The base retaining device also has a control member attached to frame, and the control member is coupled to each of the feet to move each of the feet between a base retaining position and a base releasing position.
Support for a signpost
A signpost support includes a vertical bar with a first end and a second end, and a ground anchor coupled to the vertical bar between the first end and the second end of the vertical bar. The ground anchor includes a body section coupled to the vertical bar, a spike extending from the body section, where the spike is oriented toward the second end of the vertical bar, a tab coupled to the body section and oriented perpendicular the vertical bar, and a spring section coupled to the body section and extending toward the first end of the vertical bar. The spring section is angled away from the vertical bar.
Kit for modifying a corrugated sign assembly
A corrugated sign modification kit that includes a handheld cutting device with a handle with a first end, a second end, and a handle length separating the first and second ends, a first blade member, and a blade guide member. The first blade member is coupled to the handle and has a cutting edge that faces in a longitudinal direction of the handle, extends outwardly away from the handle, and has a width of less than approximately 1 inch separating its proximal and distal ends. The blade guide member is coupled to the distal end of the first blade member, is orientated in a substantially parallel direction to the longitudinal direction of the handle, and has a distal end protruding to a point in front of the cutting edge so as to define a channel to guide inserted objects within the channel to the cutting edge.
