Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for the presentation of images, posters or any other type of documents.
  • the presentation of images, posters, photos or any documents in a frame is made of many ways that meet aesthetic criteria but also ease of installation and cost price.
  • the frames according to the prior art are often made up a profile assembled into a rectangular frame, a sheet of glass or transparent synthetic material, a support panel, and various accessories ensuring mounting and fixing.
  • these systems ensure efficient mounting, but do not allow disassemble the frame quickly and easily, for example, to replace the document to display.
  • Such an easy replacement of the document is a advantage sought in applications such as posting information in public places semi-permanent, for example timetables, prices, programs, menus.
  • the frames according to the prior art are the most often intended to be applied on an opaque support such than a wall. In some applications, it is desirable to be able to view documents on both sides of the frame. Such a frame can then be applied to a window, or maintained in space, so that its two faces can be observed.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a frame that allows quick and easy replacement of the document displayed.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a framework that can show a document both on its front side only on its back side, when applied on a transparent support such as a window or kept in space.
  • the present invention relates to a device for the presentation of plan documents, allowing the replacement of the document by opening and closing the device, comprising a background element, a document, possibly protected by a transparent plate and a frame capable of surrounding the bottom element.
  • the frame has a clean edge to rest on the periphery of the document or transparent plate.
  • the bottom element has a or several fixing elements capable of joining the frame to the bottom element each comprising an element likely to deform elastically. Each element subject to elastic deformation applies, when the device is in the closed state, a clamping force on the frame, causing, in reaction, the tightening of the document possibly protected by the transparent plate, between the edge and the bottom element.
  • the frame has on at least two of its interior faces, a groove capable of cooperating with the fastening elements.
  • these fasteners are ball latches.
  • the frame can consist of a assembly of aluminum profiles.
  • the background element may include a frame interior consisting of an assembly of profiles, for example aluminum, and a plate.
  • the plate can be transparent, for example PVC, or an opaque material such as chipboard.
  • the bottom element is a solid panel, which may be made of agglomerated wood particles, such as the "Medium Density Fibreboard” (M.D.F.).
  • the bottom element comprises a plate and at minus one patch. Said at least one piece reported is in a material chosen from wood, wood chipboard and PVC.
  • the frame can be hinged to the bottom element by a hinge.
  • the background element may include, in its part upper, a means of maintaining the document.
  • the bottom element can be fixed so permanent on a support, such as a wall or other wall vertical, for example, using two screws. This ensures a solid attachment and protected from theft, of the bottom element on the support.
  • the frame and the transparent plate are easily removable by simply pulling the frame forward. We can disassemble either manually or by using a lever.
  • the invention also relates to a device for the presentation of plan documents, allowing the presentation of documents on both sides, produced by back-to-back assembly of two simple devices.
  • FIG. 1 shows the assembly of a device 1, seen from the front, comprising four miter cut sections, forming a frame 2, and a bottom panel 3.
  • fixing the bottom panel 3 on a wall 4 can be done thanks to the chamfered holes 5 which can accommodate screws 6.
  • Device 1 also includes a plate transparent 7, made of glass or synthetic material and a document 8, for example a photo.
  • a document 8 for example a photo.
  • transparent plate 7 can be omitted.
  • Latches 9 each comprising a ball 10 are embedded in the edges (or sides) of the bottom panel 3.
  • Frame 2 is provided with a longitudinal groove 11 suitable for receiving the balls 10 of the latches 9.
  • the frame 2 can be applied and fixed to the bottom panel 3 by simple snap-in.
  • Fig. 3 is a detail view on which sees better that the profiles of frame 2 have a rim 12 extending towards the front of the device 1 and folding towards the center of the frame 2. This rim 12 thus retains the glass plate or transparent material 7 and the document 8.
  • Fig. 3 also shows a latch 9 with its ball 10 engaged in the groove 11 of a profile of the frame 2.
  • the thickness of the bottom element 3 and the position of the groove 11 of the frame 2 are such that the bottom element 3 slightly protrudes from the back of frame 2 when the device 1 is assembled, thus leaving a space between wall 4 and frame 2. This arrangement facilitates disassembly of the device.
  • the assembly of the profiles of the frame 2 is carried out permanently, for example by crimping brackets made of steel inserted in groove 11.
  • These profiles can be made by aluminum extrusion, be made of material synthetic or any other suitable material.
  • the transparent plate 7 is either a sheet of polystyrene or polycarbonate with a thickness that can vary from 0.5 to 2 mm, i.e. a sheet of glass thickness can vary from 1.5 to 2.5 mm.
  • the bottom element 3 which is full in shape shown in Figs. 1 to 3, can be made up of any material in which lateral perforations intended to contain the body of the latches are easily achievable.
  • a material is for example "Medium Density Fibreboard "(M.D.F.).
  • the bottom panel 3 has a thickness which can vary from 10 to 20 mm. The thickness must be sufficient to ability to fix latches 9 in its edges.
  • the latches 9 with balls 10 are known in furniture industry and are available in models and various dimensions.
  • the type of latch used in the first embodiment of the device 1 according to the present invention is the built-in type.
  • the bottom element 13 has a plate 14 and patches 15 (only one of which is shown on the face).
  • the patches 15 can be fixed on a support (for example a wall or a window) by any appropriate means.
  • a support for example a wall or a window
  • the latches 9 are without disadvantage placed in patches 15 which may be the same nature as the bottom panel 3. In this case we use preferably screw latches.
  • the bottom element 17 comprises a assembly of profiles 18 substantially in the shape of a "U" constituting an interior frame of dimensions slightly lower than those of frame 2, and a plate 14.
  • the latches 9 with ball 10 are crimped or screwed in the middle part of the "U" of profile 18.
  • the profile 18 includes a groove 19.
  • the assembly of the angles of the interior frame can be produced, for example, by crimping or screwing brackets steel in the groove 19.
  • This groove 19 can be also used to insert one or more frame hanging accessories, for hanging the frame with a nail or by means of a cable.
  • the plate 14 can be an opaque plate, of the same nature as the panel bottom 3 of the first embodiment shown, namely in M.D.F. or PVC. It can also consist of a transparent plate, similar to the plate transparent 7.
  • the invention is applied to a window, or simply suspended in a space so that its two faces are visible, and that document 8 is printed on both sides, it can be seen on both sides of the device 1.
  • the latches 9 come to engage in the groove 11 of the frame 2 when this is applied to the bottom element (3; 13; 17).
  • the ball 10 of latch 9 ball 10 is applied by the spring 20 against the posterior lip 21 of the groove 11.
  • the latter applies a force in the direction of arrow A indicated on Fig. 3.
  • a reaction force indicated by arrow B is applied by the rim 12 on the transparent plate 7 and / or document 8, thus ensuring tightening.
  • the strength of tightening can be adapted according to the applications in modifying the size of the frame 2, the type and the number of latches 9 used and the shape of the groove 11.
  • the latch mechanism 9 with ball 10 keeps the document 8 tightening despite slight variations in the thickness of the document 8 or of the transparent plate 7, by a more or less important engagement of the ball 10 in groove 11.
  • the framework according to the invention can be applied to an opaque support such as a wall.
  • Another mode usage is shown in Fig. 6.
  • Fig. 6 we can join the two elements back to back background 3; 13; 17 of two devices 1 and 1 'following the invention. These two devices 1 and 1 'preferably have the same dimensions.
  • the assembly 22 can then be suspended to the ceiling by cables, or maintained by any other means appropriate.
  • the frame rectangular in the examples illustrated, may, without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the claims, be produced in any other form, for example octagonal. It can also include a locking device.
  • Profiles can be coated with any aesthetic finish, such as lacquer or treated by anodizing.
