Mounting apparatus for flexible sign panels

摘要

A mounting receptacle is provided for securement to a flexible message panel. The mounting receptacle defines a housing for receiving a support rib. A threshold portion is hingedly coupled to the housing portion allowing a rib to contact the threshold portion while the housing portion is bent out of the way of the rib. The rib is telescopically received in the housing portion and, when released, tensions the message panel in a planar message-displaying condition.
