Modular interlocking display systems

Modular interlocking display systems including frames constructed from a plurality of modular frame elements. The modular frame elements each include a perimeter side equipped with a locking channel and interlocking mechanisms that allow frames to be joined together without the need of tools. Frames constructed from the modular frame elements include one or more display sides that are orthogonal from the perimeter sides and equipped to receive and hold silicone-edged display material flush to the display side. In some examples, display systems includes additional corner frame elements that allow frames to be secured at right angles, allowing display systems accommodate complex configurations. In some further examples, display systems include adjustable angle elements to allow display systems to position frame walls at arbitrary angles. In still further examples, display systems include adapter elements to allow display systems to integrate with third-party display systems.

A second plurality of fasteners is formed about the second opening. A plurality of retainers is sized to engage the first plurality of fasteners or the second plurality of fasteners to retain the planar display pane to the frame. The planar display pane is received within the first opening or the second opening.

MODULAR FRAMING SYSTEM
20190290028 · 2019-09-26 ·

A modular framing system comprises plastic components that each comprise a single article having unitary construction and which are connectable to form various sized SEG frames. Four unitarily molded corner frame connections each include protrusions receivable by at least four side rails, each of which may be unitarily extruded with a constant profile along the respective lengths of the side rails. The interconnected corner frame connections and side rails define a continuous conduit about the quadrilateral frame for receiving therein respective edges of the tensionable textile. For use with larger tensionable textiles, additional side rails and T-frame connections may be utilized, with each of the T-frame connections comprising a single molded article having unitary construction. At least the frame connections (both corner frame connections and T-frame connections) may be reused for frames of other sizes.

Backlit display assembly
