Abstract
An information conveying apparatus may include a stick figure structure. The stick figure structure may include an elongated torso member including a first end and a second end, a head member operably joined to the first end of the torso member, a first arm member and a second arm member operably joined to either side of the torso member between the first and second end of the torso member, and a first leg member and a second leg member operably joined to the second end of the torso member. The information conveying apparatus may further include a support structure for maintaining the stick figure structure in a substantially upright position. The support structure and the stick figure structure may be formed as an integral body. The support structure may be separate from the stick figure structure.
Claims18
An information conveying apparatus, comprising:
- an upper portion configured to convey information to an observer, the upper portion comprising a head member defining a central opening;
- a head insert;
- one or more connecting elements coupled to the head member for receiving the head insert, the one or more connecting elements each having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is coupled to the head member and the second end receives the head insert to position the head insert in a spaced apart configuration from the head member thereby creating a gap between an inner peripheral surface of the head member and an outer peripheral surface of the head insert;
- a lower portion operably coupled to the upper portion;
- and
- an inflatable support base coupled to the lower portion, wherein the lower portion at least partially supports at least the upper portion of the apparatus to maintain a substantially upright position with respect to a surface, and
- wherein:
- the upper portion further comprises a torso member including a first end and a second end, and the head member is joined with the torso member near the first end of the torso member,
- the lower portion comprises at least two leg members, the at least two leg members are joined with the torso member near the second end of the torso member and extend from the torso member, and
- the apparatus further comprising at least one arm member, the at least one arm member is joined with the torso member between the first and second ends of the torso member and extends from the torso member.
An information conveying apparatus comprising a stick figure structure, the stick figure structure comprising:
- an elongated torso member including a first end and a second end;
- a head member operably joined to the first end of the torso member, the head member comprising a ring member defining a central opening;
- a head insert;
- one or more connecting elements coupled to the head member for receiving the head insert, the one or more connecting elements each having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is coupled to the head member and the second end receives the head insert to position the head insert in a spaced apart configuration from the head member, thereby creating a gap between an inner peripheral surface of the head member and an outer peripheral surface of the head insert;
- a first arm member and a second arm member operably joined to either side of the torso member between the first and second end of the torso member;
- a first leg member and a second leg member operably joined to the second end of the torso member;
- and
- an inflatable support base coupled to the first leg member and the second leg member.
An information conveying apparatus comprising an inflatable stick figure structure, the inflatable stick figure structure comprising:
- a head insert;
- an elongated torso member including a first end and a second end;
- a head member operably joined to the first end of the torso member, the head member defining a central opening;
- one or more connecting elements coupled to the head member for receiving the head insert, the one or more connecting elements each having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is coupled to the head member and the second end receives the head insert to position the head insert a distance from the head member thereby creating a gap between an inner peripheral surface of the head member and an outer peripheral surface of the head insert;
- a first arm member and a second arm member operably joined to either side of the torso member between the first and second end of the torso member;
- a first leg member and a second leg member operably joined to the second end of the torso member;
- and
- an inflatable support base coupled to the first leg member and the second leg member.
