  • Sign base and sign assembly
    Patent number: 10127844
    Abstract: A sign assembly includes a sign panel, a base including an upper surface and a lower surface, a first longitudinal side and a second longitudinal side, the first longitudinal side including a midpoint disposed between first and second outer points, and the second longitudinal side including a midpoint disposed between first and second outer points, and first and second longitudinal sides, and a platform disposed on the base for attaching the sign panel to the base, wherein a distance between the midpoint of the first longitudinal side and the midpoint of the second longitudinal side is less than a distance between the first outer points of the first and second longitudinal sides, and the distance between the midpoint of the first longitudinal side and the midpoint of the second longitudinal side is less than a distance between the second outer points of the first and second longitudinal sides.

  • Hinge damper assembly
    Patent number: 9297195
    Abstract: A damper assembly incorporating a bushing adapted to rotate within a wall structure and engage a post on a bin or other element to be controlled. The bushing defines a hub of an integral, coaxial rotor which rides within a fluid containing housing. The bushing and rotor rotate concurrently about a common axis during rotation of the bin or other device being controlled. The drag on the rotor thereby slows the rotation of the engaged post and the associated bin or other structure being controlled.
