20110197486SIMPLE LEAF-TYPE FOLDING FRAME - A simple leaf-type folding frame is bent into a fully U-shaped lamella. A slot is formed between the front-side lamella and rear-side lamella, where a lamella, such as a perpetual calendar card, a photo, a product label or the like, may be inserted for combination. Especially, the rear-side lamella is cut to form at least one pair of inner and outer cut grooves that are symmetrical to each other. The inner cut groove is formed in the coverage of outer cut groove. Thus, the inner cut groove may be used to pull half a cut joint flake so that the joint flake may be turned and folded in a reverse direction to sustain a sidewall of the rear-side lamella, thereby a 3D folding frame being formed.08-18-2011
20110258897Frame Systems for Signage and Methods Relating Thereto - In certain embodiments of the present disclosure, a frame assembly is described. The frame assembly includes at least two connector elements. Each connector element has two legs with each leg including a tab. The frame assembly also includes at least two frame elements having a pair of first openings. Each first opening can receive a connector element leg. Each frame element further has a pair of second openings that are adjacent to a first opening and that can receive a tab. The frame assembly also includes a panel. Each frame element has a two different connector element legs joined thereto at each respective first opening and two different connector element tabs at each respective second opening such that the at least two frame elements are joined together to form a frame, with the panel being enclosed therein.10-27-2011
20150013200APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR DISPLAYING FABRIC BASED IMAGES - A stretcher frame apparatus and methods for stretching and mounting a fabric, such as canvas, to a supporting surface, such as a wall. The apparatus has two opposing elongated frame members that are attached to opposite sides of a fabric. When the frame members are first mounted to the wall, the fabric will have slack, but the fabric is made taut when the user inserts removable elongated tension member(s) between the wall and rear side of the fabric. Preferably, two tension members are inserted between the wall and the mounted fabric and then slid in opposite directions toward the mounted frame members. This apparatus and method allows a user to forgo cumbersome four-sided box frames, and instead provides a simple, easy to use apparatus for mounting decorative fabric-based images to a wall.01-15-2015
20160065803Television Display Device - A television display device for covering and decorating the borders of a television. The device includes a rear panel having one or more sidewalls, wherein the panel can be disposed on a wall, behind a television. The device further includes a frame that can be disposed over a television and removably attached to the rear panel by fasteners disposed on one or more sidewalls of the frame. The sidewalls of the frame are used to cover the borders of the television, wherein the panel can conceal a television wall mount and accompanying wires. The device can protect the exterior of a television and provide surface area suitable for advertisements, logos, and various designs. The fastener allows a user to conveniently interchange one frame for another.03-03-2016
040781000 Interconnected sections (e.g., frame including a front section attached to a back section) 2
20090113776FRAME WITH INTEGRATED SURFACE ATTACHMENT FOR DRYWALL AND DRYWALL-LIKE SURFACES - A frame that includes a framing member and at least one integral mounting member extending from the back surface of the framing member. The frame may be mounted to a mounting surface such as a wall by simply pushing on the frame, thereby piercing the mounting surface with the mounting member. The mounting member may integrally retained within, or integrally formed with the framing member. A second mounting post may be provided that extends from the back surface of the framing member a shorter distance than the distance that the first mounting post extends from the back surface of the framing member, to facilitate positioning and alignment of the frame before final placement.05-07-2009
20130067785PICTURE FRAME WITH REMOVABLE MOUNTING SYSTEM - A picture frame comprises a frame member defining an opening and a front surface and a rear surface. First and second substantially parallel grooves are formed on either the front or rear surface, and at least one spline is provided which can be releasably located within the first or second grooves. Further, a method of mounting a work on a picture frame is provided and comprises placing the work face down on a work surface, and placing the frame member over the work so that the front surface of the frame member is touching the work. The work is folded over the edge of the frame member to be adjacent the rear surface of the frame member. A spline is inserted into the one of parallel grooves so as to capture the work in the groove by the force of the spline.03-21-2013
