20080203257Telescoping support bars for portable display systems - A portable display frame includes a support frame and improved telescoping support bars. Each of the improved telescoping support bars includes a pass-through engaging slot on a first telescoping support bar section and an easily replaceable attachment projection member on a last telescoping support bar section. Known support bars require flexing the support bar to pass a closed end engaging slot on the first telescoping support bar section past a middle engaging hub, often resulting in damage to the telescoping support bar. The pass-through engaging slot of the present invention passes over the middle engaging hub without requiring flexing. Further, attachment projections on known support bars have broken and required time consuming repair or replacement of the support bar, often at an inconvenient time and location. The replaceable attachment projection member allows simple and easy repair when the attachment projections break.08-28-2008
