JOSEPH A. Q'UGENT, GF WNNPEG, MANITOBA, CANADA.
ADVERTISING FRAME.
Application led April 2B, 1925.
To fin/ioni t may concern:
Be it known that l, JosnrI-r A. NUGENT, a subject of the King of Great Britain, of the city of Vinnipeg, in the Province of lianitoba, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Advertising Frames, of which the following is the speciiication.
rhe invention relates to improvements in advertising frames and an object of the invention is to provide an attractive frame which will carry one or more pictures, advertisements, or such like and display the same prominently and which is arranged so that the advertisements can be quickly inserted er removed as occasion requires and are held firmly so that they will not shift once they are put in.
A further object of the invention is to construct a frame so that it can be made large or small without affecting the special features thereof structurally.
A further object of the invention is to construct the frame so that the hinged side thereof will remain in the open position Without being fastened, such permitting of the easy insertion ofthe advertising material.'
ViVith the above more important objects in view the invention consists essentially in the arrangement and construction of parts hereinafter more particularly described and later pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. l is a front view of the frame.
Fig. 2 is a reverse view of the frame.
Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional. view ccntrally through the frame.
Fig. is an enlarged detailed horizontal sectional view at l/i Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 4 with the hinged side partially open.
In the drawing like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.
The frame, as at present shown, is particularly adapted for displaying the display photographs as customarily supplied to motion picture houses. These photographs are of standard size and the frame is built accordingly. rThe present frame is designed to hold iive photographs.
do not Wish it understood, however, the frame is used solely for this purpose, as it Serial No. 26,534.
can be utilized to advantage by the selling public at large for displaying their advertising material.
The photographs provided. for motion picture houses are stitl' so that they can be (lirectly inserted in the frame. For displaying advertising material put out on thinner paper, it would be desirable to utilize a stiif backing card on which the advertisement would be mounted.
The frame, which is substantially rectangular, presents a back board 1 having a side strip 2 permanently secured to one side thereof and top and bottom strips 3 and .et permanently attached to the upper and lower ends thereof. Brace or back strips 5, (i, 7 and S are secured to the back of the board, said strips having each one end butting against the strip 2 and the other end terminating `flush with the opposing edge of the board 1. A. side strip 9, similar to the strip 2, encloses the remaining edge of the board and is pivotally fastened in place by hinges 10, secured to the said strip 9 and the cross braces 5, 6, 7 and S. The strips 2, 3, 4 and 9 are all provided with facing or moulding strips 11, lf2, 13 and 1li perinaw nent-ly fastened thereto, the moulding strips having their ends mitred, as best shown in Fig. l, and having their inner edges overhanging the board 1. The inner corners of the facing strips are cut away so as to form a channel or recess 15 for receiving and holding the picture or advertising matter as later described.
In order to hold the hinged side normally closed I have attached a coil spring 10 cen-- trally to the side of the strip f) and have housed the spring in a casing 17 secured to the back of the board, thc inner end of the spring being attached by an eye to the end of the casing.
Then is it desired to open the hinged side of the frame one swings it backwardly in the manner shown best in Fig. If the said side is swung back further than shown in the latter figure, to a fully open position, a coil of the spring will catch on the edge of the casing and will hold the spring extended, which will allow the said side to remain open.
As aforesaid, the present frame is designed to receive five advertising cards or photographs and each card, indicated at 20, when in the frame, is bordered by the facing or moulding strips. Then it is desired to place the pictures or such like in the frame the hinged side is opened and the pictures are severally inserted. l find it saves considerable time to bend the pictures slightly lengthwise to allow the upper and lower edges thereof to initially enter the top and bottom grooves, When the said picture is held in 'front oi: the trame. Once these edges are inserted a short sliding end movement enters the left-hand end of the picture in thclelt-hand groove. vWhen all pictures are inserted the hinged side is closed and held closed by the spring. Obviously the pic- `tures can be quickly removed and new ones inserted and the frame, Which has a pleasing appearance, can be displayed in any prominent place.
The same type of frame can be utilized vfor holding single picture by simply hinging the side orv end of the frame in the manner above described. The frame could be made longer to take more pictures or it could be made a double trame with the two sides hinged, and in this connection l Wish it to be noted lthat the general structure of the frame does not have to be altered. It is simply a matter of building it large or small as the occasion demands.
That l claim as my invention is:
l. A display frame for pictures, advertising material, or such like, comprising a board, a side strip permanently secured to one side of the board and strips permanently secured to theends of the board, a side strip pivotally attached to the other side of the board, a spring normally holding the latter strip closed, and moulding strips permanently secured to the side and end strips and having the inner edges overhanging the tace of the board and With the inner corners thereof cut away to provide channels for receiving the edges of the picture or advertising material.
2. A display 'frame for pictures, advertising material, or such like, comprising a substantially rectangular body board, a side strip permanently secured to one edge of the board, end strips permanently secured to the ends of the board, reinforcing strips secured to the back ot the board, a side strip located at the other edge of the board and attached by hinges to the reinforcing strips, moulding strips secured to the side and end strips and having their inner corners cut away, to form With the body board, channels or receiving the edges of the advertising material inserted in the trame, spaced cross facing strips secured to the body board and having portions thereof cut away to provide channels, a spring connected to the hinge side of the board and normally holding the same closed and a housing enclosing the spring.
Signed at Vinnipeg, this 4th day of April, 1925.
