Electronic Sign Having Slotted Frame Cabinets

US Patent:
7926213, Apr 19, 2011
Filed:
Mar 17, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/077130
Inventors:
Kory D. Kludt - Sioux Falls SD, US
Russell J. Neyens - Brookings SD, US
Jon M. Mammenga - Sioux Falls SD, US
Assignee:
Daktronics, Inc. - Brookings SD
International Classification:
G09F 7/00
US Classification:
40605
Abstract:
An electronic sign having slotted frame cabinets whereby each slotted frame cabinet can conveniently be attached to one or more vertically or horizontally positioned adjacent slotted frame cabinets by using connecting components which are generally located around the periphery of one or more slotted frame cabinets. Connecting components including splice bars, splice plates, and mounting clamps are aligned in, positioned along and secured to backing bars which are co-located in backing bar slots in one or more of the slotted frame cabinets. Lift eyes can be variably located in one or more lift eye slots. The use of externally located connecting components, which do not extend through the cabinetry, minimize the entry of environmental elements into the interior of the electronic sign. Multiple slotted frame cabinets can be connected without the removal of LED display panels.

Filed:
Nov 10, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/271404
Inventors:
Robert Lutz - Bruce SD, US
Matthew Mueller - Colman SD, US
Chad Gloege - Brookings SD, US

International Classification:
A47F 7/00
US Classification:
211026000
Abstract:
A modular display system having individual stackable electronic display panels of convenient and portable size and mounting structures for the support thereof where the stackable electronic display panels mutually juxtapose, mate, and robustly and mutually and adjustably secure together by the use of connector plates at the top of stackable electronic display panels interfacing with interlocking lower connector assemblies and lower connector plate receptors at the bottom of an overhead vertically situated stackable electronic display panel and by interfacing of latches and cams of latch keeper assemblies at the sides of horizontally situated stackable electronic display panels to form a large electronic sign display. Spring-loaded slide pin assemblies foster rapid and secure connection between vertically situated stackable electronic display panels. Adjustment features are also incorporated to align each stackable electronic display panel.
