Patent attributes
Various embodiments of anchor/stabilizers intended for use with yard signs that assist in keeping the yard signs standing perfectly upright (or “plumb”) over time. The device is a separate piece that attaches to the upright posts of the yard sign. In one embodiment, the device is formed of an elongate support and a flat metal plate that is welded to an intermediate portion of the elongate support, such that one surface of the plate is co-planar with the exterior surface of the elongate support. The plate has a plurality of holes spaced around its surface to facilitate fastening the device to the outer surface of each of the vertical posts. The anchor/stabilizer can come in a variety of lengths and sizes, depending on the environmental conditions and forces likely to be encountered at a particular installation site.
