The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of flagpoles, and in particular relates to a rotating ring, including a flagpole and two fixing sleeves; the two fixing sleeves are arranged outside the flagpole; each of the fixing sleeves is provided with a cover, the cover is slidably connected with the flagpole; a rotating ring body is rotatably connected to the outside of the cover, and a threaded fixing ring is in threaded connection with the outside of the cover; and the threaded fixing ring is in contact with the rotating ring body. Two groups of fixing sleeves, covers, rotating ring bodies, threaded fixing rings, balls, hanging lugs, positioning holes, external threads and other components are designed on a cylinder The two hanging lugs are used for hanging a flag. Therefore, when wind blows, the rotating ring bodies can rotate to prevent the flag from wrapping around the flagpole.

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.

A watercraft safety flag assembly comprising a flexible planar visibility-enhancing element having a forward edge and a rear edge spaced from the forward edge by a width, and a rigid planar stiffening element secured to the flexible planar visibility-enhancing element, where the planar stiffening element substantially spans the width of the flexible planar visibility-enhancing element and is configured to provide maximum stiffening proximate the forward edge, minimal stiffening proximate the rear edge, and decreasing stiffening with increasing distance from the forward edge. There is also provided a header element joined to the forward edge of the flexible planar visibility-enhancing element and which forms a cylindrical sleeve for receiving a mast, where the rigid planar stiffening element extends into the cylindrical sleeve formed by the header element.

An adjustable telescoping flagpole that has a plurality of hollow tube sections and a plurality of flagpole clips. The telescoping flagpole may be extended and locked at any point from the fully extended length to the fully compacted length. Each telescoping section of the flagpole has a fixed flagpole clip at the top of the telescoping section and an adjustable clip that may be moved along the telescoping section to produce a flagpole of a desired length.

A clamp assembly is provided that includes a body member having a cavity therethrough configured to receive a fixture. The cavity has a longitudinal axis through a center thereof. The body has a clamping portion configured to apply a compressive force to the fixture and thereby releasably secure the body member to the fixture. A ring member is secured to the body member in a manner such that the ring member is capable of 360-degree rotation about the longitudinal axis of the cavity of the body member while the body member remains in a fixed position. The ring member has a flange extending outwardly from a side thereof and the flange has a through hole with a central axis that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the body member.

A support assembly for maintaining a flag or banner in a properly displayed manner while mounted on a flag staff, especially when the flag staff is at an angle from vertical, and no matter the wind or other weather conditions.

The present invention provides a flag-mounting device to be fastened onto a rail for securely mounting and holding a flag. The device includes a flagpole and a mounting apparatus that are made of strong material. The device is durable and easy to be installed onto a rail. The device can also be used on a pipe, a tube, or any objects with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section. The present invention also provides a method for mounting a flag onto a rail.
