Abstract

The present invention provides a modular advertising system. One object of the current invention may be to provide a modular advertising system that may be secured to a pole or other external surface and elevated by a user to a desired height without the need of a ladder or lift. Another object of the current invention may also be to provide a quick-release assembly that may be used to quickly couple and de-couple the assembly from a pole or other external surface/structure. Another object of the current invention may be to provide a modular assembly that can be adaptable to a number of surfaces, such as a pole surface, ground surface or horizontal surface. An additional object of the current invention may be to provide a modular advertising display having interchangeable modular structures that may be configured to vary the position and number of advertising displays presented to consumers.

Claims (39)

1. A modular advertising display comprising:

at least one angled bracket having at least one display holder;

a modular flag display secured by said display holder;

a flexible extension connector configured to be coupled with a rod coupler on the angled bracket and further coupled with at least one installation rod; and

a rod base support configured to be secured with said at least one installation rod and a pole.

2. The modular advertising display as described in claim 1 wherein said modular flag display comprises a modular flag display having:

an upper bracket coupled to a lower bracket by at least one installation rod wherein said installation rod is positioned within a support sleeve on the vertical axis of a flag;

a stem positioned within a support sleeve on the top horizontal edge of said flag and further coupled with said upper bracket; and

a stem positioned within a support sleeve on the bottom horizontal edge of said flag and further coupled with said lower bracket.

3. The modular advertising display as described in claim 2 and further comprising at least one internal coupler pole configured to be positioned within, and secure at least two installation rods.

4. The modular advertising display as described in claim 2 wherein said upper bracket comprises an upper bracket having one or more angled display holders.

5. The modular advertising display as described in claim 4 and further comprising at least one helium-free balloon configured to be coupled with said one or more angled display holders.

6. The modular advertising display as described in claim 5 and further comprising a balloon stem coupler configured to secure the helium-free balloon with the angled display holder.

7. The modular advertising display as described in claim 6 and further comprising a balloon stem configured to secure the balloon stem coupler with the helium- free balloon.

8. A multi-flag modular advertising display comprising:

a plurality of angled brackets each having at least one display holder;

at least one modular flag display secured by each of said display holders of said angled brackets; and

a flexible extension connector configured to be coupled with a rod coupler on at least one angled bracket and further coupled with at least one installation rod; and

a rod base support configured to be secured with said at least one installation rod and a pole.

9. The multi-flag modular advertising display as described in 8 wherein said modular flag display comprises a modular flag display having:

an upper bracket coupled to a lower bracket by at least one installation rod wherein said installation rod is positioned within a support sleeve on the vertical axis of a flag;

a stem positioned within a support sleeve on the top horizontal edge of said flag and further coupled with said upper bracket; and

a stem positioned within a support sleeve on the bottom horizontal edge of said flag and further coupled with said lower bracket.

10. The multi-flag modular advertising display as described in 9 and further comprising at least one internal coupler pole configured to be positioned within, and secure at least two installation rods.

11. The multi-flag modular advertising display as described in 10 wherein said upper bracket comprises an upper bracket having one or more angled display holders.

12. The modular advertising flag display as described in claim 11 and further comprising at least one helium-free balloon configured to be coupled with said one or more angled display holders.

13. The modular advertising flag display as described in claim 12 and further comprising a balloon stem coupler configured to secure the helium-free balloon with the angled display holder.

14. The modular advertising flag display as described in claim 13 and further comprising a balloon stem configured to secure the balloon stem coupler with the helium- free balloon.

15. A modular balloon display comprising:

at least one angled bracket having at least one display holder;

a modular flag display secured by said display holder, the display further comprising:

an upper bracket coupled to a lower bracket by at least one installation rod wherein said installation rod is positioned within a support sleeve on the vertical axis of a flag;

a stem positioned within a support sleeve on the top horizontal edge of said flag and further coupled with said upper bracket;

a stem positioned within a support sleeve on the bottom horizontal edge of said flag and further coupled with said lower bracket; and

wherein said upper bracket comprises an upper bracket having one or more angled display holders configured to secure at least one helium-free balloon configured to be coupled with said one or more angled display holders,

a flexible extension connector configured to be coupled with a rod coupler on the angled bracket and further coupled with at least one installation rod; and

a rod base support configured to be secured with said at least one installation rod and a pole.

16. The modular balloon display as described in claim 15 and further comprising a balloon stem coupler configured to secure the helium-free balloon with the angled display holder.

17. The modular balloon display as described in claim 16 and further comprising a balloon stem configured to secure the balloon stem coupler with the helium-free balloon.
