A flag anti-wrapping device for reducing friction and side loading, which are common causes of flag wrapping. The flag anti-wrapping device includes an inner race, an outer race, a plurality of roller bearings, and a cap. Roller bearings are placed in an annular cavity, which is defined by the outer race having an inner circumference with a diameter larger than an outer diameter of the inner race. Thus, a flag may rotate about a flagpole with reduced friction and side-loading. Thereby, eliminating side load binding and reducing wrapping of the flag about the flagpole.

There is provided a flag assembly for mitigating against flag entanglement. The flag assembly comprises a flagpole assembly, the flagpole assembly having a fixed portion for fastening to a mount; a rotating coupling fastened to the fixed portion; and a rotating portion fastened to the rotating coupling such that the rotating coupling is able to rotate with respect to the fixed portion in use and a flag fastened to the rotating portion such that, in use, the fixed portion remains static while the rotating portion is able to rotate through 360 degrees under multidirectional wind force so as to mitigating against the entanglement of the flag about the flagpole assembly; wherein the rotating portion comprises an axial slot configured to allow the fastening of a portion of the flag to an interior of the rotating portion.

A flag demonstration apparatus which prevents flag furling is provided. The apparatus comprises a flagpole which further comprises a bottom portion and a top portion that removably fasten together and sandwich a lower swivel bracket. The apparatus also includes an upper bracket attached near the top of the top portion of the flagpole and is attached to at least one portion of a flag and the lower swivel bracket is attached to at least two portions of the flag. The lower swivel bracket allows the flag to rotate less than 360 degrees about the flagpole and also keeps at least a portion of the flag displayed, regardless of environmental conditions.

A flag display apparatus includes a frame comprising first and second support legs having upper and lower opposed ends when placed for display. A horizontal support member having a predetermined length can be connected to the upper end of the first and second support legs. A flag or banner having a predetermined length is attached to and supported by the frame. The predetermined length of the horizontal support member is less than the length of the flag or banner so that a portion of the flag or banner extends beyond the first or second support leg thereby providing a first portion of the flag or banner that is unfurled and a second portion of the flag or banner that is at least partially furled in the absence of wind moving across the flag.

A flag pole for rotating during windy climate and thus preventing a flag from being tangled and/or wrapped around the flag pole. The flag pole has a plurality of sections, each of which has a first end and a second end. Each of the first ends of the plurality of sections being an insertion end and each of the second ends of the plurality of sections being a receiving end. A truck has a top and a first end and the first end of the truck is a receiving end. A base coupling the flag pole to a surface. The base has a coupler and a plate. The first end of the truck is coupled to the first end of a first of the plurality of sections. The first end of a second of the plurality of sections is coupled to the second end of the first of the plurality of sections. The second end of the second of the plurality of sections is coupled to the first end of a third section of the plurality of sections. At least one of the first end of the second of the plurality of sections and the first end of the third of the plurality of sections having at least one ball bearing.

Systems and methods for flying sheet materials including a conduit, at least one airflow diverter and an outlet, and a fan positioned relative to the conduit for moving high velocity air through the conduit and out the at least one airflow diverter. In example embodiments, at least one sheet material is connected to a portion of the conduit and nearby the outlet such that the high velocity air provides a force against the sheet material causing the same to unfurl and fly as if an outdoor wind was present. In some example embodiments, two or more sheet materials can be unfurled or fly at the same time.

A wireless rotatable flagpole assembly. The device includes a flagpole mount that includes a fastener adapted to secure the mount to a wall surface. A motor is disposed on the proximal end of the mount and is operably connected to a wireless transceiver, whereby the motor powers a rotating receiver. The motor and wireless transceiver are powered via a battery, which may be recharged via a solar panel. A flagpole is securable to the rotating receiver. A remote can be utilized to independently control multiple flagpole assemblies. The device allows users to rotate a flagpole in order to unfurl and straighten a flag that has become furled or otherwise misaligned due to high winds or other external forces.
