Extended drop-over panels for use with vertical panel with drop-over base

Abstract

An extended drop-over panel is designed to matingly engage a vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels. The extended drop-over panel includes an elongated tapering opening defined vertically by the extended drop-over panel and extending from a lower aperture adjacent the bottom of the extended drop-over panel to an upper aperture adjacent the top of the extended drop-over panel. The elongated tapering opening is designed to receive the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels therein. A front panel at least partially defines the elongated tapering opening and is designed with at least one of a width, height, and total area greater than a front panel of the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels.

 an elongated tapering opening defined vertically by the extended drop-over panel and extending from a lower aperture adjacent the bottom of the extended drop-over panel to an upper aperture adjacent the top of the extended drop-over panel, the elongated tapering opening designed to receive the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels therein; and   a front panel at least partially defining the elongated tapering opening and designed with at least one of a width, height, and total area greater than a front panel of the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels.   
   
   
       2 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the elongated tapering opening is defined by a vertically elongated body. 
   
   
       3 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the elongated tapering opening is defined by an upper mounting bail and a vertically spaced apart lower mounting bail. 
   
   
       4 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the front panel includes a pair of vertically spaced apart parallel arms. 
   
   
       5 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the front panel includes a single front surface available as a visual display. 
   
   
       6 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 1  further including a back panel designed with at least one of a width, height, and total area greater than a back panel of the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels. 
   
   
       7 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 1  further including a plurality of attachment devices designed to have cables attached thereto. 
   
   
       8 . An extended drop-over panel designed to matingly engage a vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels, the extended drop-over panel comprising:
 a body including at least a front panel, the body defining a vertically oriented, elongated tapering opening, and the front panel designed with at least one of a width, height, and total area greater than a front panel of the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels; and   the elongated tapering opening defined vertically by the extended drop-over panel and extending from a lower aperture adjacent the bottom of the extended drop-over panel to an upper aperture adjacent the top of the extended drop-over panel, the elongated tapering opening designed to receive the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels therein.   
   
   
       9 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 8  wherein the front panel includes a pair of vertically spaced apart parallel arms. 
   
   
       10 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 8  wherein the front panel includes a single front surface available as a visual display. 
   
   
       11 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 8  further including a back panel designed with at least one of a width, height, and total area greater than a back panel of the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels. 
   
   
       12 . An extended drop-over panel designed to matingly engage a vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels, the extended drop-over panel comprising:
 a front panel designed with at least one of a width, height, and total area greater than a front panel of the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels;   an upper mounting bail and a vertically spaced apart lower mounting bail affixed to the front panel and cooperating to define a vertically oriented, elongated tapering opening; and   the elongated tapering opening extending from a lower aperture adjacent the bottom of the extended drop-over panel to an upper aperture adjacent the top of the extended drop-over panel, the elongated tapering opening designed to receive the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels therein.   
   
   
       13 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 12  wherein the front panel includes a pair of vertically spaced apart parallel arms. 
   
   
       14 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 12  wherein the front panel includes a single front surface available as a visual display. 
   
   
       15 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 12  further including a back panel designed with at least one of a width, height, and total area greater than a back panel of the vertical panel for drop-over base type vertical panels. 
   
   
       16 . An extended drop-over panel as claimed in  claim 15  wherein the upper mounting bail and the vertically spaced apart lower mounting bail are each affixed to the back panel.
