DISPLAY MOUNTING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A system and method for mounting a display or sign includes an elongated channel having magnets that are affixed to a ceiling grid and mounting hooks or the like to suspend the sign or display from the channel. The channel includes high friction strips on a neck for engagement by a pole end gripper on a pole for mounting the channel on the ceiling while the user stands on the floor. End caps may be mounted on the channel. Mounting plates may be affixed to the ceiling or wall for magnetically engaging the channel. A wall mount channel includes an offset neck for gripping by the pole end gripper. A magnetic clip including a string for suspending a display may be mounted with the pole end gripper. An embodiment of the channel includes hooks for engaging an open girder ceiling, horizontal member, or other structure.
Panel support and/or panel mounting means
Disclosed is a panel support including a block and a slide. The block has an aperture therein into which the slide can be inserted and the slide has a flange at or adjacent its distal end. A locking unit is provided actuable to substantially lock the slide in a desired position relative to the block so as to clamp a planar member between the slide and the block. Also described is a mounting system utilizing a plurality of panel supports carrying a planar member.
Sign support
A sign support includes a mounting bracket and a sign holder. The mounting bracket selectively engages an associated fixture. The sign holder has a mounting bracket engaging member and a sign holding member that engages and holds a sign. An adhesive fastens the mounting bracket engaging member to the mounting bracket. The adhesive is an upstream adhesive such that the user receives the mounting bracket already bonded to the sign holder.
Display mounting system and method
A system and method for mounting a display or sign to a ceiling, wall or window frame includes an elongated channel having magnets that are affixed to a ceiling grid and mounting hooks or the like to suspend the sign or display from the channel. The channel includes high friction strips on a neck for engagement by a pole end gripper on a pole for mounting the channel on the ceiling while the user stands on the floor. End caps may be mounted on the channel. Mounting plates may be affixed to the ceiling or wall for magnetically engaging the channel. A wall mount channel includes an offset neck for gripping by the pole end gripper. A magnetic clip including a string for suspending a display may be mounted with the pole end gripper. An embodiment of the channel includes hooks for engaging an open girder ceiling.
SIGN SUPPORT
A sign support includes a mounting bracket and a sign holder. The mounting bracket selectively engages an associated fixture. The sign holder has a mounting bracket engaging member and a sign holding member that engages and holds a sign. An adhesive fastens the mounting bracket engaging member to the mounting bracket. The adhesive is an upstream adhesive such that the user receives the mounting bracket already bonded to the sign holder.
Display frame
The invention relates to a display frame for graphic advertising material that is suited for use with a pricing system. The frame has a flat body which is traversed by parallel lipped channels that releasably receive inserts. The frame is moulded from plastics material with webs of the channels provided by connectors. The inserts are configured to display pricing in a manner that allows variation and these allow for pricing changes to be made while the same graphic material is maintained on the display frame. The graphic material may also be provided by inserts and removably secured in the channels. In a preferred embodiment, the frame has movable clamping-rails along outer edges. The clamping-rails are resiliently biased into a closed condition by clips with resiliently deformable cam formations to retain a suitably sized poster and/or transparent screen against the front side of the frame. The clamping-rails and clips for biasing the rails are also moulded from plastics material.
Method and apparatus for advertising adjacent to an electronic visual display
A method of advertising is disclosed. The method includes detachably coupling a first advertising article to a first mount coupled to an electronic visual display device located in a commercial establishment. When the first advertising article is detachably coupled to the electronic visual display device, the first advertising article is adjacent to the electronic visual display device.
Placard fastener
A transportation placard system including a holder including a recess for receiving a placard and a placard fastener engaged with the holder. The placard fastener includes a retaining arm including a placard engagement portion and a retaining tab. The placard fastener further includes a base including a first spring arm including a first downwardly extending claw, a second spring arm including a second downwardly extending claw, and an elongate portion positioned between the first spring arm and the second spring arm. The first spring arm and the elongate portion form a first cavity. The second spring arm and the elongate portion form a second cavity. The retaining tab is positioned within the first cavity and the second cavity.
DISPLAY CARD HOLDER
A display card holder including a sleeve for a printed card and a sleeve holder defining a cavity open at one end to receive a sleeve end section having a pair of cutouts. The cavity defines a sleeve-receiving channel having a width providing clearance to the sleeve thickness. A button member movably supported by a sleeve holder body defines an actuator portion exposed to an outside of the sleeve holder. The button member includes wings extending from opposite sides of the actuator button. A spring biases the button member in a first direction with respect to the body of the sleeve holder. Each wing is formed to include: a pin adapted to extend through a corresponding one of the cutouts, and an elongate first edge forming a pivot about which the button member is pivotable with respect to the sleeve holder body.
Permit holder for a vehicle sun visor
The permit holder for a vehicle sun visor is configured for use with a vehicle. The permit holder for a vehicle sun visor attaches a parking placard to a sun visor within the vehicle. The parking placard may be: 1) stored in a non-visible manner during the operation of vehicle; and, 2) positioned in a visible manner when the vehicle is parked. The permit holder for a vehicle sun visor comprises a visor clip, a master shaft, a master clip, and a plurality of pivots. The master clip attaches to the parking placard. The master shaft attaches the master clip to the plurality of pivots. The plurality of pivots attaches the master shaft to the visor clip. The visor clip attaches to the sun visor. The plurality of pivots are arranged such that the orientation of the placard is adjustable.
