Abstract
Abstract An advertising display device comprises; a display member adapted to be shaped from a flat configuration to form a sleeve, the display member having edge portions which, when the sleeve is formed, form end portions of the sleeve; and support members, each support member having a flat base, on annular rim perpendicular to the base and adapted to surround a respective one of the end portions of the sleeve, and webs projecting from the base within the rim to define a gap between each web and the rim, each gap being adapted to receive one of the said edge portions of the display member. The device can be assembled by arranging the sleeve between the bases of the support members so that the rims of the support members surround the end portions of the sleeve and the edge portions of the sleeve fit into said gaps.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
190 words
An advertising display device comprising: a display member adapted to be shaped from a flat configuration to form a sleeve, the display member having edge portions which, when the sleeve is formed, form end portions of the sleeve, the opposite end portions of the display member having a longitudinally inwardly directed rib, and support members, each support member having a flat base, an annular rim perpendicular to the base and adapted to surround a respective one of the end portions of the sleeve, and webs projecting from the base within the rim to define a gap between an edge of each web and the rim, each gap being adapted to receive one of the said edge portions of the display member, two of the webs of each support member being spaced and parallel to define a gap adapted to receive a respective end portion of said rib, whereby the device can be assembled by arranging the sleeve between the bases of the support members so that the rims of the support members surround the end portions of the sleeve, the edge portions of the sleeve being inserted into said gaps.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, wherein each said gap has a minimum width equal to the thickness of the display member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, wherein each support member has a bead uniformly spaced from the rim to provide a channel between the rim and the bead, the channel being adapted to receive one of the edge portions of the display member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
14 words
