Apparatus and method for attaching signs to foundation members such as road barriers
A support system for a sign mountable on at least two spaced apart foundation members, the system comprising: i) a base, preferably a length adjustable base, having a first end and a second end; ii) a vertical sign support having a first end and a second end wherein the second end is connected to the base; iii) a first foundation member bracket for connection to a first foundation member, the first foundation member bracket proximate the first end of the base; and iv) a second foundation member bracket for connection to a second foundation member distant the first foundation member, the second foundation member bracket proximate the second end of the base.
SOLAR POWERED VEHICLE TOPPER UNIT
A solar powered vehicle topper unit and systems and methods for the same are provided. A solar energy harvesting device is electrically connected to an electronic display within a housing. A support extends between the housing and the solar energy harvesting device such that a bottom surface of the solar energy harvesting device is located above, and spaced apart form, a top surface of the housing to secure the solar energy harvesting device in an elevated position. The solar energy harvesting device has a first footprint, and the housing has a second footprint which is smaller than the first footprint.
SOLAR POWERED VEHICLE MOUNTED DISPLAY
Systems and methods for solar powered vehicle mounted displays are provided. A solar energy harvesting device is electrically connected to an electronic display within a housing. The solar energy harvesting device is configured for mounting to a roof of a vehicle. A mounting support is provided for mounting the housing to another portion of the vehicle.
SOLAR POWERED VEHICLE TOPPER UNIT
A solar powered VTU and systems and methods for the same are provided. A solar energy harvesting device and an energy storage device are electrically connected to an electronic display within a housing. A support extends between the housing and the solar energy harvesting device such that a bottom surface of the solar energy harvesting device is elevated directly above, and is spaced apart from, a top surface of the housing. The solar energy harvesting device has a first footprint, and the housing has a second footprint. The first footprint is larger than, and directly overlies, the second footprint.
ELECTRONIC DISPLAY ASSEMBLIES WITH SOLAR PANELS
A solar powered display assembly and systems and methods for the same are provided. A solar energy harvesting device is electrically connected to a display unit which is connected to an electrical grid. At least one structural member extends between a housing for the display unit and the solar energy harvesting device such that a bottom surface of the solar energy harvesting device is elevated above, and spaced apart from, a top surface of the housing such that shade is periodically cast on the display unit. The solar energy harvesting device has a first footprint, and the housing has a second footprint which is smaller than the first footprint.
Lighting assembly with LEDs and optical elements
A lighting apparatus includes a circuit board and light emitting diodes (LEDs) attached to the circuit board. The LEDs are arranged in an array of row and columns and are attached to the circuit board are arranged in a single plane. A support substrate supports the circuit board. Optical elements are configured to redirect light from the plurality of LEDs. Each optical element is substantially the same as all other optical elements. Each LED is associated with a single optical element and each optical element is associated with a single LED. The lighting apparatus is configured to direct light away from the circuit board so that the light is directed so as to illuminate a substantially rectangular area that is off-center relative to the light assembly. The substantially rectangular area has an edge that is at least 14 feet in length.
Drive-through order point
An order point can be employed in a drive-through or similar setting. The order point can have one or more rotatable menu cases. Each rotatable menu case can include two opposing sides that are equally configured to display a menu. The menu case can be mounted to the order point in a manner that allows either side of the menu case to be rotated into a forward facing position. The menu case can also include angle stops which limit the range of rotation of the menu case and retain the menu case in the forward facing positions. The order point may also include a pivoting canopy which functions to shade the menu cases as well as to prevent damage when a vehicle is too tall.

MODULAR SIGN
A modular sign including a spacer assembly affixed to graphic panels is provided. The modular sign is movable between a knock-down configuration and an erected configuration. In the knock-down configuration, the spacer assembly lays flat on a back surface of the graphic panels. In the erected configuration, the spacer assembly is positioned behind the graphic panels so as to provide a support structure for the graphic panels while simultaneously being at least partially concealed by the graphic panels. The modular sign is moved from the knock-down configuration to the erected configuration by rotating the graphic panels up and away from a flat surface and is secured in the erected configuration by inserting a key flap into a keyhole. Once the modular sign is in the erected configuration, it can be installed onto a tube and/or another support structure, such as a register sign.
Outdoor display apparatus
Provided is an outdoor apparatus includes including a display unit configured to accommodate at least one display module to be mounted therein; and a stand configured to accommodate at least one device, which is connectable to the at least one display module, to be mounted therein, the display unit being configured to be rotatably installed at an upper side of the stand, wherein the stand includes a base part configured to be installed on a floor, a mount part provided on the upper side of the stand, and an accommodating part provided between the base part and the mount part and configured to accommodate the at least one device, and wherein the mount part includes a wire through hole configured to allow a wire connected to the at least one display module to pass therethrough, and a waterproof structure configured to prevent an inflow of water through the wire through hole.
