摘要： A collapsible sign includes a flexible banner supported by a collapsible stand. The collapsible stand, of A-frame configuration, includes two pairs of legs at each end of a cross-member, the apex of each leg pair and cross-member end retained in a unique one-piece connector. Each connector has two leg cups and a cross-member cup attached to a base block by a living hinge. A latch and saddle releasably secure the cross-member cup to the base block in the erected position. A cammed key and keyway releasably lock the leg cups to one another in the erected position. There is a slight interference fit between the cups which assists securing them in the erected position. In breaking down the sign, each leg pivots toward its paired partner upon release of the key from the keyway and the cross-member likewise pivots toward the legs upon release of the latch resulting in all legs and the cross-member being generally parallel to one another in the collapsed position. The flexible banner is wrapped about the cross-member and legs to form a compact bundle for ease in transporting and storage.

摘要翻译： 可折叠标志包括可折叠支架支撑的柔性横幅。 A框架结构的可折叠支架在横向构件的每一端包括两对腿，每个腿对的顶点和横向构件端保持在独特的一体式连接器中。 每个连接器具有两个腿部杯和通过活动铰链连接到基座的横向构件杯。 闩锁和鞍座在竖立位置可释放地将横向构件杯固定到基座。 凸轮键和键槽在竖立位置可释放地将腿杯彼此锁定。 在杯子之间有轻微的过盈配合，有助于将它们固定在竖立位置。 在分解标志时，当从键槽释放钥匙时，每个腿部枢转到其成对的对方，并且横向构件在松开闩锁时同样枢转到腿部，导致所有的腿部，并且横向构件大致平行于一个 另一个在崩溃的位置。 弹性横幅围绕横梁和腿部缠绕以形成紧凑的捆包，便于运输和储存。
