Apparatus and Methods for Hanging Objects on a Vertical Surface

A hanger for hanging an object on a vertical surface includes a plate with a front face and a back face. The back face is to abut a vertical surface onto which the object is to be hung. The hanger includes a first hook and a second hook protruding outward from the front face and an integrated bubble level fixably coupled to the front face and calibrated to indicate a horizontal orientation of the first hook relative to the second hook. A plurality of wall contacts protrudes outward from the front face. Each wall contact includes an opening through which an attachment mechanism traverses to attach the plate to the vertical surface. The hanger does not require the object to have a specifically shaped counterpart in order to interface with the hanger. The hanger removes the need for elaborate and/or time-consuming measuring, thus saving the user time and frustration.

Frame apparatus

A frame apparatus for displaying an article. The frame apparatus includes a support structure having a frame and a backer panel. A plurality of slots are formed into the backer panel that include a first slot that is elongated along a first axis that is parallel to top and bottom edges of the support structure and a second slot that is elongated along a second axis that is parallel to lateral edges of the support structure. The frame apparatus also includes a hanging element for hanging the support structure from a support surface such as a wall. The hanging element is configured to be slidably coupled to the support structure such that the hanging element can slide back and forth within one of the slots while remaining coupled to the support structure. This structure enables the frame apparatus to move side-to-side along the support surface while hanging therefrom.

Picture Hanging System
20230064453 · 2023-03-02 ·

A base plate has a generally rectangular central section, a trapezoidal lower section, a generally rectangular upper section, and similarly configured generally semi-circular side sections. Vertical bends are between the side sections and the central section whereby the side sections extend forwardly to form an angle of 90 degrees with respect to the central section. Each side section has a pivot hole and a horizontal bend between the upper section and the central section. A support wire is shaped to form central, lower and upper regions. The central region has converging legs. The lower region has an upwardly extending J-shaped hook. The upper region has outwardly extending coaxial pivot fingers received in the pivot holes.
