A retractable stanchion barrier system with a flexible RGB display matrix utilizes one or more stanchion units, each stanchion unit comprising a stanchion head, a weighted base, a stanchion post, and a flexible LED stanchion ribbon display which extends from each stanchion head. A computer system governs the operation of the flexible RGB display. The flexible LED stanchion ribbon display may extend from one stanchion head and connect to another stanchion head. The stanchion heads may mount to walls, doors or stanchion posts. Such a system may be configured to be ultra-portable or implemented as a fixture. A method for crowd control and line management using a stanchion display system utilizing one or more stanchion units is also recited.

A connection assembly for connecting a banner to an upper support line, a lower support line, and a first tensioning line of a banner support system supporting a banner, the connection assembly comprising first and second lateral lines attached to the first tensioning line of the banner support system, an upper support line connection portion connecting the first lateral line to both an upper corner of the banner and the upper support line, the upper support line connection portion being slidably coupled to the upper support line, and a lower support line connection portion connecting the second lateral line to both a lower corner of the banner and the lower support line, the lower support line connection portion being slidably coupled to the lower support line, and the lower support line connection portion being operable to allow the lower corner of the banner to rotate away from the lower support line and to return back toward the lower support line

A system is disclosed for converting an overhead door into a gate or serving window, the system having at least two rows of panels spanning the width of the door, one panel located above and adjacent to the other panel, a pair of rails opposite one another and adjacent to the panels, the panels traveling within the rails to move from a closed position to an open position, and at least one hinge connecting the lower row of panels to the upper row of panels, the hinge having an upper half attached to the upper row of panels and a lower half attached to the lower row of panels, the upper and lower halves of the hinge connected by a removable central pin, wherein the upper row of panels moves from the closed position to the open position when the central pin is removed from the hinge.

The present invention is a banner support assembly for mounting to poles of any surface or shape. The banner support assembly includes a plurality of pole brackets abutting the outer surface of the pole which are demountably secured at preselected intervals around the pole with at least one band clamp received through band slots defined in each pole bracket. A ring is slideably received within a channel defined in each of the pole brackets such that the ring is free to rotate around the pole about a longitudinal axis of the pole.

This invention covers a display system which includes modular deployable display units, a stand, a power source, a data input device and a display support. Each unit includes a housing, a spool assembly, a flexible electronic display member, an electrical cable and a connecting system for connecting the units to the stand and to one another, in an end to end arrangement. The assembly is mounted within the housing and includes a spool having opposite ends, to which the spool is rotatably mounted. The flexible member includes LEDs for displaying a programmable message. The flexible member has an end coupled to the spool and is displaceable between a wound configuration where the member is wound onto the spool and an unwound configuration where the member is unwound from the spool. A free end of the member is coupled to the support for displaying the message.

A point of purchase display for coupling to a commercial product on display at a retail store. The point of purchase display includes a flexible and wrinkle-resistant sheet material having indicia displayed thereon and at least one coupling member for coupling the sheet material to the commercial product. In example forms, the indicia being displayed on the sheet material is provided for advertisement or instructional purposes of the commercial product.

The present invention relates to a display for displaying an image carried by, or generated/projected on, a substrate. The display comprises at least one frame member arranged to define an open frame (200), the at least one frame member comprising at least a first frame portion and a second frame portion, the second frame portion being spaced from the first frame portion across the open frame, and tensioning means for connecting the first frame portion to the second frame portion, or for holding or supporting the first frame portion relative to the second frame portion. The tensioning means (400) is adjustable to provide for one or more of a first state where all of the weight of the display is supported by the first frame portion, a second state where all of the weight of the display is supported by the second frame portion, and/or an intermediate state where a proportion of the weight of the display is supported by each of the first frame portion and the second frame portion. The present invention also relates to a method of forming the display.

The present invention provides a modular advertising system. One object of the current invention may be to provide a modular advertising system that may be secured to a pole or other external surface and elevated by a user to a desired height without the need of a ladder or lift. Another object of the current invention may also be to provide a quick-release assembly that may be used to quickly couple and de-couple the assembly from a pole or other external surface/structure. Another object of the current invention may be to provide a modular assembly that can be adaptable to a number of surfaces, such as a pole surface, ground surface or horizontal surface. An additional object of the current invention may be to provide a modular advertising display having interchangeable modular structures that may be configured to vary the position and number of advertising displays presented to consumers.
