  • Patent number: 5555659
    Abstract: A banner display comprising a flexible, stretchable banner, a fixed mounting bracket and a hinged mounting bracket. Rigid support tubes are inserted in hems formed at the ends of the banner. The rigid support tubes are attached to mounting rods in the fixed and hinged mounting brackets. The hinged mounting bracket includes a spring mechanism which tensions the banner as the hinged mounting bracket is closed. To mount the banner, the banner is first attached to the fixed mounting bracket. The other end is attached to the hinged mounting bracket which is in the open position. As the hinged mounting bracket is closed, the banner becomes taut. The spring mechanism maintains tension in the banner when the hinged bracket is closed. As the hinged mounting bracket is closed, the mechanical advantage increases allowing the banner to be mounted without additional tools or manpower.

  • Patent number: 4095360
    Abstract: A display device comprises a rectangular transparent plastic envelope formed from two sheets of flexible plastic material which are seamed together adjacent their top, one side and bottom margins. The sheets also include horizontal enclosed sleeves at the top and bottom of the envelope in which tubular arms are located. Flexible coupling means are provided in engagement with the upper tubular arm while the lower tubular arm is engaged by laterally spaced tension means which permit the lower arm to turn ninety degrees with respect to the upper arm. A zipper-type closure means may be provided along the open side of the envelope to removably seal the envelope.
