Abstract (en)

An objective of the present device is to maintain a flag, when hoisted, irrespective of whether wind is blowing or not as well as to improve the appearance of the flag when hoisted. To achieve the objective, compressed air is transmitted from a compressor to exhaust holes positioned next to the flag. Alternatively, propellers mounted adjacent to the flag and driven by a battery or electric motor provide the necessary air currents to keep the flag flying in the absence of wind. <IMAGE>
