ABSTRACT:
A floor sign comprising two substantially similar panels and an engaged slidable locking bar. Each panel has a pair of closely spaced apart tabs with an aperture through each and a tab having a boss on both sides. The two panels engage each other at their upper end by interlocking the pair of tabs with the tab bosses. The upper portions of the panels are pivotably coupled. The locking bar has an upper horizontal section and a vertically depending section and is inserted between the two panels for maintaining the panels in a spaced apart deployed position or in a collapsed position. The floor sign is deployed by pressing downward on the locking bar to insert the bar between the panels, forcing them apart at a ridge on the inner face of each panel. The bar locks to maintain the lower ends of the panels in a spaced apart configuration. To collapse the sign a user lifts upward on the locking bar via a notch in the panels to release the locking bar and permit the panels to collapse toward each other.
