A frame assembly for supporting a flat article. In one aspect, the frame assembly may include a stack including a transparent window panel and a frame. The frame may include a floor structure for supporting the stack and an outer annular wall coupled to and surrounding the floor structure, the outer annular wall including a plurality of corners, an outer surface defining a periphery of the frame, an inner surface defining a display cavity, and a front edge that defines a display opening configured to allow the stack to pass therethrough into the display cavity. The outer annular wall may have a non-uniform thickness. The corner portions may have lower and upper portions, with the lower portions having a greater thickness than the lower portions.

A framed collectible for displaying a continuously-looping playback of a digital video file is provided, wherein a display panel is controlled by a display controller to play at least one video file in a continuous loop on the display panel only while an output signal from a magnet sensor indicates no proximity to a magnet proximal to the back side of the display panel. The display controller has a printed circuit board that incorporates at least one processor and at least one memory that contains at least one video file. The memory, which in an embodiment can be flash memory, is factory programmed and therefore the memory content cannot be changed by an end user. Packaging for storage and shipping of the framed collectible is also provided, which incorporates a magnet that is sensed by the magnet sensor to keep continuously-looping video playback switched off while the device is stored.

The present invention falls within the scope of frames, in particular a frame with magnetic and printing technology. It is an object of the present invention to provide a frame on which various types of printing can be performed and which is provided with a magnetic fastening system comprised of at least two rigid parts of different dimensions and thicknesses, these being a base (1) and at least one front panel (2) on which a printing can be made and/or to which decorative elements can be attached, the front panel (2) being fixed to the base (1) by magnetic fastening means (3). The presence of magnetic fastening means (3) in the base (1) and in the front panel (2) enables simple fixing and detachment between both, allowing the front panel (2) to be replaced several times in a quick and easy manner. In addition, the present invention comprises, both at the base (1) and the front panel (2), fixing means (5) to a vertical surface.

A system and method are provided for creating a customized photo magnet product and shipping the product to single or multiple recipients. In one aspect, the system includes a web-based application with an enhanced user experience for seamlessly creating the customized photo magnet product. The user interface provides the user with the ability to upload a selected photo image from any of multiple sources and overlay the photo image with a customized visual frame including a user-selected background pattern, text and text properties, event-related icons, and other enhancements. In another aspect, the user may select the ship the custom photo magnet product to one or multiple recipients in selected quantities.

A self-catheterization assist device is provided. The self-catheterization assist device includes an adjustable support component; a yoke attached to the adjustable support component; a mirror surround rotatably attached to the yoke; a dual-sided mirror with a flat surface and a concave surface mounted within the mirror surround; and an independently repositionable focused-beam lamp mounted on the mirror surround. A self-catheterization assist kit is also provided. The kit includes a visual aid device and a urine containment bowl. The visual aid device has an adjustable support component; a yoke attached to the adjustable support component; a mirror surround rotatably attached to the yoke; a dual-sided mirror with a flat surface and a concave surface mounted within the mirror surround; and an independently repositionable focused-beam lamp mounted on the mirror surround. The urine containment bowl is attachable to the adjustable support component.

A modular frame system with constituent components that are magnetically attached and detachable, and with a multi-ply construction facilitating cooperative forming of useful recesses and enclosures.
