Patent number: 9378671Abstract: A large scale LED display has a number of display panels each having a cable and spacer support structure for a number of LED modules. Adjacent display panels are connected together by a number of seam links that snap onto one cable of one of the display panels and one cable of the adjacent display panel. The cables may include a number of seam link engagement members spaced along the length of the cable and onto which the seam links snap wherein each of the seam link engagement members locates an LED module on the support structure. The LED modules include top and bottom housing sections that snap together, wherein one of the housing sections includes a seat for an electrical connector. The seat locates the connector and a printed circuit assembly within the LED module.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2014Date of Patent: June 28, 2016Assignee: ADTI Media LLCInventors: Daniel S. Kline, Matthew W. Shankle, David F. Cox, James C. Lee, Sam R. Sarcia

Patent number: 8939609Abstract: A rotary switch is provided for controlling an attached light string containing a plurality of light colors. By manipulation of the control dial, a specially designed rotary board is rotated to provide electrical connection to the light string according to one of several present color patterns preprogrammed into the rotary board. The discrete rotary switch positions provided by the rotary switch allow for different color signaling patters to be provided at the output leads from the rotary switch so as to power a multicolored light staring with different patterns and create different multicolored effects. One of the discrete rotary switch positions permits the input color patter from an input light string to be passed through the rotary switch so as to provide the same color pattern at the output leads and power a multicolored light string with the same color pattern provided by the input light string.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2013Date of Patent: January 27, 2015Assignee: National Christmas ProductsInventor: Michael M.
