SYSTEM FOR RETAINING A SUBSTRATE WITHIN A FRAME
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.
PAPER PICTURE FRAME, BLANK THEREFOR, AND METHOD FOR HOLDING A PICTURE IN A PAPER PICTURE FRAME SUPPORTED ON A PAPER STAND
The present application relates to a paper picture frame including a central rectangular portion and four rectangular tubular frame sections extending along four margins of the central rectangular portion at the rear surface thereof. The paper picture frame further includes a paper stand for holding the paper picture frame on a flat surface. The paper stand may be in the form of a triangular tubular structure formed by a base panel, a first side panel, and a support panel. A second side panel extends from the base panel over the support panel, and has a terminating end extending beyond the first side panel. A blank for forming the paper picture frame and a method for holding a picture in the paper picture frame supported on the paper stand are also disclosed.
Comic and Card Encapsulative Apparatus
A protective apparatus for encapsulating printed collectibles, including comic books and cards. The protective apparatus comprising a forward panel forming a recess adapted to receive a base panel. The printed collectible positions between the forward panel and the base panel. The base panel is hingedly connected to a stand.
Picture frame and storage device
The picture display and storage device or frame of the present invention has a displaying surface for displaying a picture and a storage section for storing additional pictures. The storage section is not visible when viewing the displaying surface. The picture display and storage device can be exhibited by hanging on a wall or through the use of an easel frame or a wide base to allow the frame to stand on its own. Additionally, the picture display and storage device can utilize organizer tabs to separate and identify pictures being stored.
DISPLAY SUPPORT
The present invention is a display support comprising a bracket that is attachable to a display and having at least one wing adjacent to a bracket channel. The bracket channel has at least two keyways. An optional sleeve is held within the channel and has keyways aligned with the keyways of the bracket channel to form aligned keyways. A support arm, held within the bracket channel, has a key that can be received in one of the keyways. Rotation of the support arm in the bracket channel is prevented when the key is received in one of the keyways and rotation of the support is permitted when the key is not received in one of the keyways.
Frame assembly
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 inner surface of the outer annular wall may include a plurality of recessed regions, each of the recessed regions encompassing one of the corners of the outer annular wall.
Frame assembly
Embodiments of the present disclosure include an image frame assembly including a frame portion defining a viewing window and a backing panel attached to a back of the frame portion. The backing panel includes a hinge portion that rotatably couples the backing panel to the frame portion to allow the frame portion to rotate relative to the backing panel about an axis extending parallel to and proximate to an upper edge of the backing panel, a body portion extending from the hinge portion and configured to cover at least portion of a viewing window of the frame portion, and a plurality of biased members extending from the planar portion and toward the frame portion.
FRAME ASSEMBLY
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.
Modular, multi-function frame system
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.
Hanging assembly and frame apparatus incorporating the same
A frame apparatus having an adjustable hanging height. The frame apparatus may include a frame having a mounting member thereon. The mounting member may extend along an axis and have a plurality of mounting elements located on opposite sides of the axis in an axially spaced apart manner. Furthermore, a mounting bracket is configured to be coupled to a support surface (i.e., a wall) and to the mounting member. The mounting bracket may extend along an axis and have a plurality of mounting elements located on opposite sides of the axis in an axially spaced apart manner. The frame may be hung from the support surface by engaging a subset of the mounting elements of the mounting member with the mounting elements of the mounting bracket. The mounting member and the mounting bracket may collectively form a hanging assembly for the frame apparatus.
