Abstract: A method of advertising includes using light towers for new uses. Specifically, a skeleton may be employed to connect to a frame supporting at least one LED light from a frame connected to a mast of the light tower. The skeleton may locate a first display at a desired distance from the at least one LED light to backlight the first display. While first displays may be used with many embodiments, still other embodiments may have a second display as a vertically oriented display along a portion of the mast. The second display may deploy with the extension of mast portions for at least some embodiments.

Abstract: A light adjusting roller blind device has a support assembly, and a driving assembly, an adjusting mechanism and a blind assembly mounted on the support assembly. A blind of the blind assembly can be adjusted by simply detaching a second holding part from a first holding part and then releasing a first rope. The blind can be stably lowered along with the releasing of the first rope. Therefore, it is easy and convenient for the user to adjust the blind of the light adjusting roller blind device.
Abstract: A window covering comprises an upper rail, a window shade located below the upper rail, a lower rail located below the window shade, a first press assembly and a second press assembly located at two sides of the lower rail and spaced from each other, and a cord winding assembly located in the lower rail to connect to the first press assembly and second press assembly. A first cord and a second cord run through two opposite sides of the window shade to fasten to the cord winding assembly. The lower rail can be moved upwards or downwards by a user to retract or expand the window shade through the first and second cords. Beside, the distal ends of the first and second cords can be hid in the cord winding assembly in the lower rail, thus can prevent the cords from entangling children and avoid accidents.
Abstract: The invention relates to a winding device and to a method for covering wall openings or windows. The winding device comprises a covering element that can be rolled up, a deflecting element that has a wave-like design, or is simply formed by a bottom hemline, or a bottom woven fabric edge and/or longitudinal edge, and at least on raising and lowering unit. In addition, the covering element is provided with an upper longitudinal edge, which is preferably arranged in parallel to the deflecting element. The lower longitudinal edge is either connected to the deflecting element, or is formed by the same, so that as a result of a rotation of the deflecting element, or of the lower woven fabric edge and/or longitudinal edge, about a horizontal axis, the covering element can be rolled up or down. The raising and lowering unit comprises at least one cord, wherein at least one free end of the cord is connected to the raising and lowering unit.
Abstract: A motor vehicle roof with an at least partially transparent roof section (10) and a shade arrangement (12) located underneath the transparent roof section. In one of three embodiments, with two take-up shafts (16, 18) located in succession in the lengthwise direction of the roof and a length of shade (14) which extends in between, and the front end of the length of shade can be taken up onto the front take-up shaft and the back end onto the rear take-up shaft, the two take-up shafts each being pre-tensioned in the take-up direction, the two take-up shafts being movable along one laterally arranged guide in the lengthwise direction of the roof, and there being a common drive (70, 72, 74, 76) in order to move the take-up shafts (16, 18) in opposite directions toward one another in the lengthwise direction of the roof.
