JOSEPH STAREN, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
ADJUSTABLE FRAMING. l
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application led November 25, 1910. Serial No. 594,092. l
To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, JOSEPH STAREN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of Chicago, county of Cook, and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Adjustable Framing, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a detachable picture framing and has for its object the provision of a picture framing which may be readily attached to any size of picture.
The invention consists in the combinations and arrangements of parts hereinafter described and claimed.
The invent-ion will be best understood by reference to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification and in which- Figure 1 s a front elevation of one side of a picture framing embodying my invention, Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the framing, Fig. 3 is a front elevation of one of the corner pieces of the framing shown detached from the picture, Fig. 4, a section of the cor-Y ner piece taken 0n line .fr-m of Fig. 3, Fig. 5, a detailed elevation illustrating the method of connecting the ends of the supporting brace to the upper corner piece, and Fig. 6 is a section of the framing taken on line y-y of Fig. 1.
The preferred form of construction as illustrated in the drawings comprises al picture 1 placed between a front glass plate 2, and a rear backing sheet 3 of card board or similar material held together by corner pieces 5 which are provided for each of the corners of thepicture and are arranged to be readily attached thereto. Each of these corner pieces 5 consists of an ornamental sheet metal stamping formed with a right angled recess 6 adapted to receive one corner of said picture, plate and sheet. Spring lips 7 are provided at each end of the corner pieces and a spring lip 8 is provided at the center of said recess, each of said lips being adapted to take over the frontface of the plate to hold the corner pieces in position as shown. Inwardly extendable oppositely disposed tangs 9 and 10 are struck up from the bottom of recess 6 and are adapted to be pressed into the backing sheet 3 to further secure the corner pieces in position. Perforations 6 are also provided in the sides of recess 6 to permit of thedriving of brads into the sides of the picture if desired. Rearwardly extending loops 11 and 12 are also struck up from the bottom of recess 6 and are arranged parallel with the sides of said recess as shown. A supporting brace 13 is also provided for supporting the picture in easel form as shown in Fig. 2. This brace is made of wire in substantially U-form and has its upper ends 14 turned outwardly and angularly and provided with hooks 15 adapted to engage lips 11 or 12 as indicated in Fig. 5.
In use the picture is placed between plate 2 and sheet 3 as set forth and corner pieces 5 are placed over each of the corners thereof to secure them together. Supporting brace 13 is placed in position by engaging hooks 15 with lips 11 and the framing'is complete.
vBy providing lips 11 and 12 parallel respectively to the respective sides of recess 6, the corner pieces may be secured to any corner of a picture and said lips will be properly positioned for engagement by a supporting brace for supporting the picture in any position. It will be observed that" this framing will serve to bind the picture between plate 2 and sheet 3, may be readily attached to any size of picture by providing a suitable supporting brace, and that the supporting brace is itself capable of considerable adjustment to different sizes, it being understood that the recess 6 will be made of a proper depth to receive the three members. If desired the edges of the picture glass front and backing sheet may be bound together by gummed paper.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred form for carrying my invention into effect this is capable of variations and modifications without departing from the spirit of my invention. I, therefore, do not wish to be limited to the exact details of construction set forth but desire to avail myself of such variations and modifications as come within the scope of the appended claims.
Having described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A picture framing comprising four corner pieces, each of said pieces consisting of an ornamental sheet of metal stamping provided with a right angled recess adapted to receive a corner of a picture, a glass front plate and a backing sheet, and spring lips adapted to take over said front plate, there being outwardly extending loops formed in the bottom of said recess parallel with each Patented Jan. 23, 1912.
of the sides of said recess; and a supporting brace adapted to detachably embrace said loops, substantially as described.
tending` tangs adapted to penetrate the backing of a picture; and a supporting brace in substantially U-form having its upper ends angularly formed and provided With hooks 'adapted to detachably engagelv said loops,`
substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my 'name to this specification in the presence of tWo subscribing Witnesses.
