Publication number: 20070209261Abstract: A support arrangement for supporting a poster from an adjacent or overhead member. The arrangement comprises an elongated first extruded housing on at least one side of the poster. The housing comprises three chambers defined by opposing sidewalls with a perpendicular connecting bridge and one set of opposing lips. The first and second elongated lips and the lower edge of the sidewalls define an elongated holding third chamber having tapered sidewalls comprising a wedge-shaped elongated chamber. The substrate to be supported may be inserted longitudinally through an elongated space between the tapered sidewalls. A pair of elongated, flexible rollers are arranged within that elongated wedge-shaped holding third chamber. The rollers are of non-linear configuration in at least two planes. The non-linear shape to the rollers ensures contact with the substrate even when the housing is used upside down on the bottom of a substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2005Publication date: September 13, 2007Inventors: Rebecca Stover, David Pitcher, Thomas Burrous, Sidney Rose, Alan Stenfors
