A system for mounting a sign on a stanchion and a method of using the system for mounting signs are provided. The system includes a bracket that can be mounted onto the upper end of the stanchion and a sign frame that can be mounted onto the bracket. The sign frame supports the sign in an upright position. The bracket has a base with an open lower end that can be lowered down onto the upper end of the stanchion to mount the bracket. The bracket has a support member attached to the base for mounting the sign frame onto the bracket. The support member has a pair of opposing openings that extend through the support member. The sign frame has a pair of frame mounting rods that can be inserted downward through the openings to mount the sign frame onto the bracket.

A method is provided for tracking and/or locating a delivery item. A first delivery-item transport equipment label is temporarily attached to a bracket, wherein the bracket includes a main body with a first identifier permanently attached to the bracket and a second identifier comprising a radio-frequency identification (RFID) chip permanently attached to the bracket. The first delivery-item transport equipment label and at least one of the first identifier and the second identifier are scanned to associate the first delivery-item transport equipment label with at least the RFID chip. The RFID chip is scanned during use of a delivery-item transport equipment to which the bracket is attached. A location of the first delivery-item transport equipment label is identified based on the scanning of the RFID chip.

A tree fastener and method of connecting an object to a tree is disclosed herein. The method generally includes steps. A fastener is provided that includes a head, a non-threaded shaft and a polymer material. A hole is formed in the tree. The object is positioned against the tree proximal the hole. The fastener is inserted through the object such that: the head of the fastener substantially abuts the object, the object substantially abuts bark of the tree, and the shaft terminates at a first growth ring of the tree. Once installed, the fastener maintains the object in connection with the tree over time as the tree grows additional growth rings.

A portable advertising platform system for store front, street side and indoor promotions. The platform can elevate signs and products above obstacles. Items are fastened at their tops only allowing them to freely swing; wind resistant. This rugged, lightweight platform is made from plastic or aluminum and consists of several joints interconnected by square shaped insert tubes; thumb screw fastening. Tubes can couple together to form longer members. Joints can rotate 90 degrees to create perpendicular branches. The platform consists of a lower cart with several vertical mounts, supporting an upper web with multiple tiers and overhanging arms. The platform can substantially stretch horizontally, vertically and in width providing numerous configurations. The 4 leg levelers telescope multiple feet both horizontally and vertically to level the cart on rough uneven terrain. Leg levelers also act as durable brakes; friction with ground. Detachable large 8 inch wheels swivel for easy maneuvering.

The invention is related to construction, namely, discloses a shackle and a locking device comprising said shackle. The technical effect is improving the performance of the device due to a certain design of the shackle. The technical effect is achieved by the fact that the shackle comprises: a first end; a second end, and a plurality of bends between the first end and the second end, thereby forming: a first segment between the first end and a first bend, a second segment between the first bend and a second bend, a third segment between the second bend and a third bend, and a fourth segment between the third bend and the second end, wherein the first segment lies in a first plane and the fourth segment is substantially co-planar with the first segment, and the technical effect is also achieved by design options of the locking device comprising said shackle.

A support rail for luminaires or electrical units (60) has a support rail profile (50), which encloses an elongated receiving space, along with at least one busbar (55), arranged in the receiving space, with contactable conductors (58), wherein the support rail (50) further has, on its outside, display means (10) for visually representing the function of the conductors (58).

Technologies and implementations for a modular sign apparatus having an integrated post driver. The technologies and implementations facilitate assembly of a ground engaging sign including a stake driver for a vertical member of the sign apparatus.

A header box for a retail display structure comprising a front panel, a rear panel, and a bottom panel. The rear panel is formed coplanarly with the front panel and the bottom panel and is folded about a first fold line of the header box relative to the front panel to extend entirely spaced from and substantially parallel to the front panel. The rear panel defines a depending flange extending downwardly from a remainder of the rear panel. The bottom panel is folded about a second fold line of the header box to extend between the rear panel and the front panel and is positioned above a bottommost edge of the front panel and above the depending flange of the rear panel. A reception cavity for receiving a cross bar of the retail display structure is formed between the front panel and the depending flange and below the bottom panel.

A stand for supporting a board includes a wire frame having a first portion configured to support an edge of the board, and a second portion extending from the first portion. The stand also includes a latch mounted on the second portion. The latch is operable to restrain movement of the board relative to the wire frame.

A ground mounting system for supporting a post includes a sleeve configured to receive the post therein, a plate secured to the sleeve and defining at least one slot therethrough, an auger positioned to extend from the plate to secure the plate to the ground, and at least one stake receivable within the at least one slot to facilitate securement of the plate to the ground.
