  • Patent number: 8793913
    Abstract: A label holder includes a main panel having a top portion that is oriented at an angle from a substantially planar portion, a first sign sleeve and a second sign sleeve. The first sign sleeve is defined by the substantially planar portion of the main panel and a return flange coupled to the main panel at a joined end. The return flange extends upward from the joined end and terminates along and is biased against the substantially planar portion of the main panel. The second sign sleeve is defined by a front that extends from the top portion of the main panel and a back that is coupled to the front by the top portion of the main panel.

  • Patent number: 8789712
    Abstract: A display fixture includes a support assembly mounted to a pair of uprights on a display unit and has a pair of arms having upper surfaces that directly attach to the uprights and a crossbar extending between proximal ends of the pair of arms. The upper surfaces are oriented at a first angle from the uprights. The display fixture also includes at least one loose item display assembly mounted to the crossbar and includes a collar and a mounting bracket. The collar has an inner diameter that defines a central opening for receiving a container. The mounting bracket is fixedly attached to a back of the collar at a proximal end and removably coupled to the crossbar of the support assembly with a distal clip. An upper surface of the collar is oriented at a second angle relative to upper surfaces of the pair of arms of the support assembly.

  • Publication number: 20140157707
    Abstract: A free-standing wall includes an internal frame, a pair of wall panel assemblies supported on each side of the internal frame by cleats and a top plate. The internal frame includes opposing sides that define a thickness. Each of the pair of wall panel assemblies includes a panel having an interior surface and a width. The top plate includes a width that is at least as great as a combined dimension of the thickness of the internal frame and the widths of each panel. The top plate is coupled to a top of the internal frame to secure the pair of wall panel assemblies to the internal frame.

  • Publication number: 20010032057
    Abstract: The present invention is a method and system for initial calibration of a location sensing electronic whiteboard. The electronic whiteboard is connected to a personal computer, which is coupled to a computer projector for projecting an image onto the surface of the electronic whiteboard. In the exemplary embodiment, the surface of the electronic whiteboard contains a calibration icon. Once the user touches the calibration icon on the electronic whiteboard surface, a dialog box appears in the projected image containing one or more calibration point, which in the exemplary embodiment, are located at the intersection of two red lines. Once a touches are detected on the surface of the electronic whiteboard, the location of the detected touch is used as the calibration points to relate positions on the whiteboard to positions on the display of the computer.
