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.

PLANAR DISPLAY ASSEMBLY
A planar display assembly is provided with a pane with a front reflective surface and a rear surface. An array of mounting plates is provided, each with a first fastener, and a polygonal mounting plate adhered to the rear surface by an adhesive. A plurality of second fasteners is each engaged with one of the array of first fasteners for linear adjustment relative to the pane in a direction generally perpendicular to the pane to support the planar display assembly upon an upright support surface. Each mounting plate is oriented upon the pane rear surface such that at least one vertex extends away from the corresponding first fastener in a direction toward another sequential first fastener within the array of first fasteners. A metal bracket is adapted to be mounted to the upright support surface. The bracket has at least one enclosed cleat to receive two of the second fasteners.

WALL MOUNTABLE SUPPORT
The present invention provides a support for mounting in or on an upright member, the support comprising a first region and a second region, the first and second regions being separated by a bend in the support, the second region having item attachment region. The present support may be used to support an item such as a shelf, or to hang an item therefrom. The support of the present invention is configured so as to be insertable into a channel in an upright member (such as a wall) or into a receiving means that is in turn fixed to or inserted into an upright member. Also provided is a support system comprising a support as described herein, and a substantially upright member comprising a channel extending thereinto, the channel angled into the member, the channel having an upper wall and a lower wall, optionally the upper wall having a recess disposed therein. The channel may be angled downwardly into the member.
ARTICULATING VANITY MIRROR ASSEMBLY
A first center mirror and a second mirror are each suspended from a main bracket. The second mirror is pivotally connected to a bar which pivotally attaches to the main bracket and also to the second mirror. A third mirror is optionally pivotally connected to an arm pivotally attached to the main bracket. The first mirror is also preferably pivotally attached to an arm which is itself pivotally attached to the main bracket. An adjustably positionable top mirror can also be mounted to the main bracket. A close-up auxiliary mirror can be suspended from one of the other mirrors. Bushings support the arms upon the main bracket and support the mirrors upon the arms, with the bushings including a detent system to hold the mirrors in predefined positions. A person can stand multiple places and have mirrors positioned about the person for viewing different sides at each place.
SAFETY HOOK
This is to provide a safety hook 1 having a function of preventing and/or delaying removal of an exhibit 7 by unauthorized persons and a function of preventing unexpected display falling, and has good operability. The safety hook 1 has a grip body 17 capable to be fixed to a hanging wire 3, and a hook 23 for hanging an article, and connected to the body (17). Further, it has a hook cover 21 displaceable between a closed position for closing an opening portion 23z of the hook 23 and an open position for opening the opening portion 23z, and a cover cap 19 which hinders displacement of the hook cover 21 from the closed position to the open position.

Support structure for an article, method of mounting the support structure, and support bracket
The invention relates to a support structure for an article. In particular, the invention relates to a support structure for mounting modular articles such as display units and the like upon a wall. The support structure comprises a support bracket (1), the support bracket having at least one opening (15), the opening being sized to accommodate a fixing (4) by which the support bracket may be secured to a wall (3), the opening being larger than the fixing whereby the position of the support bracket (1) may be adjusted relative to the fixing (4). The support structure also comprises a support element (2), the support element having a dimension (d) which is larger than the opening (15), the support element having a fixing hole (14) therethrough, the distance between the fixing hole (14) and the periphery of the support element (2) being non-uniform. The support bracket (1) has a support surface (12) adapted for engagement by the periphery of the support element (2). The invention also provides a method of mounting the support structure, and a support bracket for use in the structure and method.
