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.

A frame assembly for displaying an object is described. In an embodiment, the frame assembly comprises a printable, rigid material forming a rectangular shaped outer frame that defines an area in which the object, such as a photograph, is displayed. The outer frame is made of a rigid, multilayer substrate that has been machined with grooves that allows it to be manipulated to form front and side walls, such that an image can be printed or wrapped around the entire surface. A method of making the frame assembly is also described. The method comprises printing an image on the frame, such as by direct digital or screen printing prior to assembling the parts of the frame.

Image displays are disclosed. An image display may include an image support and a plurality of foldable sections. Each foldable section may have a first segment rotatably coupled to and configured to lock with the image support and a second segment rotatably coupled to and configured to lock with the first segment. The image display may have an open and an assembled configuration. Display faces of the image support, first segment, and second segment may be co-planar in the collapsed configuration. The display faces image support and the second segment may be perpendicular to the display face of the first segment in the assembled configuration.

Display systems and methods are provided to utilize material, particularly needlework material such as canvas work or surface embroidered material, to mat or decoratively surround a piece of artwork for display. Such material is stretched and held in place by the display system so as to provide a desirable aesthetic result. The display systems are easily removable or changeable, allowing customization. Likewise, such display systems may be used with conventional frames.

A lined keepsake box system has a box, a coaster cover adapted to fit into a recess in the top of sidewalls of the box, and a picture frame cover adapted to be held with magnets on a top of the box over the coaster cover. The picture frame cover has an easel back with an easel kickstand and is removable to display a picture supported on a surface by the kickstand away from the box.

It is an object of one or more embodiments of the present disclosure to provide a method and device for an easel back. The easel back is constructed of a flat foldable member, comprised of three cut outs for folding at the three cut outs, a first hook/loop, on an upper section of a front side of the easel back, configured to attach to a back of a display frame, and a second hook/loop, on the bottom section of a back side of the easel back, configured to attach to a lower part of the display frame.

A stand for use with a charging device, such as, but not limited to, a Qi Wireless Charger. The stand is in the form of a picture frame, and elevates the charging unit up off a desk or table top, at an angle where a device being charged can be placed thereupon. A portion of the back of the frame is removably secured, and provides a space for securely holding the wireless charging device therein. The charging device power cord is routed through a picture frame support extending from the back of the frame.

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.

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.

A self-leveling picture frame apparatus for automatically leveling pictures hung on a wall includes a frame body having an upper portion, a lower portion, a left portion, and a right portion defining a frame aperture. A leveling liquid is coupled within a leveling cavity of the frame body. The leveling cavity is shaped to direct the leveling liquid towards a midline of either the upper portion, the lower portion, the left portion, or the right portion depending on which portion is lowest. A transparent front cover is coupled to the frame body. The front cover is coupled to a front face of the frame body within the frame aperture. A back cover is coupled to a back face of the frame body over the frame aperture.
