The back strips can extend along respective side strips and be adjoined at respective corners for forming the assembled support structure. A mechanical securement device can be connected to adjoined back strips at each corner for rigidly securing the adjoined back strips together and for retaining the side and back strips in an assembled position.

Disclosed is a frame. The frame includes a framework formed to have a polygonal structure in a plane to surround an outer periphery of a fabric exhibit and including a fastening structure fastened to a rear support portion on a rear surface thereof, the rear support portion fastened to the rear surface of the framework to form a space configured to fix the fabric exhibit between the framework and the rear support portion and having a polygonal panel-shaped structure corresponding to the framework in a plane, a first fixing portion mounted, with a structure corresponding to an edge shape of the fabric exhibit, on a top surface of the rear support portion, and a second fixing portion attached to the first fixing portion by a magnetic force while the fabric exhibit is mounted above the first fixing portion and then a top surface of the fabric exhibit is interposed therebetween.

An article for hanging on a support surface includes a substrate having a first end and a second end. The article includes a pair of rails with each rail including a recessed channel that extends in a longitudinal direction. A pair of splines is provided with each spline including a raised ridge that extends in a longitudinal direction. The raised ridge is configured for insertion into the recessed channel. The article also includes a first pair of end caps. Each end cap of the first pair of end caps having an end walls and side walls that define a hollow interior, wherein each end cap of the first pair of end caps further includes slots that are formed in two of the side walls that are opposite one another. The article includes an elongated hanging element that has enlarged portions at two opposite ends thereof. The elongated hanging element passes through the slots of the first pair of end caps with the enlarged portions being located external to the first pair of end caps. Wherein in an assembled state, one rail and one spline are disposed adjacent one another such that the raised ridge is at least partially inserted into the recessed channel and the substrate is captured within the recessed channel and the first pair of end caps are disposed over opposite ends of the one rail and one spline to join and hold the one rail and one spline against one another with the substrate captured therebetween.

The present invention relates to a frame comprising at least two first frame struts (1.1, 1.2) and at least two second frame struts (2.1, 2.2), wherein⋅the two first frame struts (1.1, 1.2) and/or the two second frame struts (2.1, 2.2) are of invariable length, ⋅the first frame struts (1.1, 1.2) are connected at their ends in each case to a second frame strut (2.1, 2.2) and the second frame struts (2.1, 2.2) are connected at their ends in each case to a first frame strut (1.1, 1.2), and —the first frame struts (1.1, 1.2) and the second frame struts (2.1, 2.2) are arranged at a right angle with respect to one another in a frame plane in an assembled position.

This patent of invention relates to structural arrangement introduced in a photo frame, applied in the area of furniture decoration for the purpose of storage of photos or images in a closed and weather-protected environment, which aims to personalize the printing of photos and images and their changing, through the innovative constructiveness structural profiles (1), joining brackets (2), screws (3), fabric (4), lighting bars (5), support (6), cover (7) e sheet (8), with advantages of being easy in the process of taking/choosing the art to be printed, reduction in the time needed to purchase the product, easy to understand, light, of simple assembly, with flexibility and ease of changing photos and images, being non-destructive in the change, using internal lighting and having communication with the user.

A frame assembly includes a frame base and a rear panel including a plurality of side walls that are configured to be received within a plurality of side walls of the frame base. Along an external surface of each side wall of the rear panel there is at least one locking tab that is configured for reception within one corresponding locking opening of the frame base when the rear panel is inserted into the frame base so as couple the rear panel to the frame base in a snap-fitting manner and permit a canvas substrate to be captured therebetween for holding the canvas substrate across a front face of the frame base.

A vertical slot hanger assembly includes a substrate having a top edge and a bottom edge and a plurality of holes or slits formed therein along each of the top edge and the bottom edge. The assembly further includes a top rail and a bottom rail. Each of the top rail and the bottom rail includes a recessed channel that extends in a longitudinal direction. Each rail has a plurality of blind holes formed therein. Each blind hole intersects the recessed channel. The top edge of the substrate is received within the recessed channel of the top rail and the bottom edge of the substrate is received within the recessed channel of the bottom rail. The system further includes an elongated hanging element that is disposed within the recessed channel between the top edge of the substrate and a top surface of the recessed channel. The system includes a plurality of fasteners for reception in the plurality of blind holes. Each fastener passes through one hole or slit of the substrate and is frictionally held and anchored within the respective blind hole, thereby securely coupling the substrate to the top rail and the bottom rail.

A method for assembling a canvas print includes the steps of: preparing a canvas substrate that includes a printed side; placing the canvas substrate with the printed side facing down; disposing a base frame over the canvas substrate; folding edges of the canvas substrate over sides of the base frame; inserting a rear panel into the base frame; and pressing the rear panel downward until a snap-fit connection is realized between the rear panel and the base frame with the folded edges of the canvas substrate being captured between the rear panel and the base frame and being taught across a forward face of the base frame.
