LOUIS J. WILDE, OF LOS ANGELES, CALIFGRNIA.
METAL PZCT'URE MOLDING.
Application filed April 1, 1925. Serial No. 19,844.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, Louis J. TILDE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Metal Picture ijioldings, of which the following is a specification. 7
This invention relates to improvements in metal picture moldings.
' An object of the invention is to provide an improved picture molding, formed of metal, which may be easily, quickly and cheaply constructed and which has a plurality of apertures therein capable of receiving a pin upon which the suspending cord of a picture may be hung.
lVith the foregoing and other objects in view which will be made manifest in the fob.
lowing detailed description and specifically pointed out in the appended claims, reference is bad to the accompanying drawings for an illustrative embodiment of the invention, wherein:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a room of a dwelling house, showing the picture molding in applied position,
Fig. 2 is a front elevation of a portion of the improved picture molding,
Fig. 3 is a vertical section taken on the line 33 of Fig. 2,
Fig. i is a front elevation showing a modified form of picture molding, and
Referring to the accompanying drawings wherein similar reference characters designatc similar parts throughout, the im proved picture molding is preferably formed df a strip of sheet material, preferably sheet metal. In the modification shown in Figs. 2 and 3, this strip is bent to provide top and bottom securing parts and 11 respectively. The intermediate portion of the strip is bent outwardly out of the plane of the securing parts 10 and 11 to provide projecting portions 12 and 13, which are disposed in spaced relation to each other and which are connected as by a return bend 14:. Apertures 15 and 16 may be formed in the top and bottom securing parts respectively, which are adapted to receive nails or screws in fastening the picture molding to the wall 1V. Apertures 17 and 18 are formed in the portions 12 and 13 respectively, and these ape tures are in alignment. A tapered pin 19 having a suitable head 20 is adapted to be inserted in the aligned apertures l? and 13. The taper of the pin is such that the side surfaces of the pin 19 will engage the er. s of the aperture 1? and maintain the head 20 a slight distance above the upper portion 12. The head 20 and the upper portion of the pin 19 provide a hook on the picture molding which can be shifted to any desired location along the molding and over which the suspending cord 21 of the picture P is passed.
In the modification shown in Figs. 1 and 5, the strip of material is bent to provide top and bottom securing portions and 31 and the central portion of the strip is bent outwardly out of the plane of the securing parts 30 and 31, providing top and bottom portions 32 and 33 respectively, which are connectet as by a return bend 3 1. This modification differs from the modification shown. in Figs. 2 and 3 in that the portions. 32 and 33, instead of being rounded, are straight and converge toward the return bend 34. Apertures 35 and 36 are formed in the top and bottom securing parts 30 and 31 respectively and aligned apertures 3'7 and 38 are formed in the portions 32 and 33. A tapered pin 39 having a head 10 is adapted to be passed through the aligned apertures and 38 in a similar manner to the pin 19 shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
From the above construtcion it will be appreciated that an improved picture molding is provided having a securing part and a flange or portion bent out of the plane of the securing part. Apertures are formed in the flange and a pin capable of being received in any of the apertures, so that it may be shifted along the picture molding, as desired. This pin adapted to assume an up right position upon the picture molding. The picture molding shown in Figs. 4 and 5, because of the fact that the upper portion 32 is downwardly and outwardly inclined, does notcollect dust, which is quite an advantage over picture moldings heretofore employed. Because of the fact that the picture molding is made of sheet metal, it will be understood that it may be easily, quickly and cheaply constructed and yet present an attractive appearance.
It will be understood that various changes in the detail of construction may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A picture molding comprising a strip of sheet material bent'to provide a securing part and a flange, said flange having a plurality of apertures therein, and a readily removable pin capable of being inserted in any one of said apertures and assume an upright position therein.
A picture moldin coniprising a strip of sheet mater al bent to provide two flanges and a securing part, said flanges being arrz'inged one above the other and having a plurality of aligned ap rtures formed there in, a. d a pin ada 'ited to be inserted in any of the aligned apertures.
It pi molding comprising a strip of sheet material providing top and bottom securing parts, the intermediate portion of said strip being" bent outwardly from the plane of the strip and having: a plurality of apertures formed therein, and a pin receivable in any of said apertures.
A picture ,inolding having a securing part, portions bent out of the plane of the securing part and disposed in spaced relation to each other, there being apertures termed in one of said portions, and a read- 115 ren'iomble pin receivable in any ol. said a 'iertures.
A picture molding having a securing part, portions bent out Of the plane of the s curing part and'disposed in spaced relation. to each other, there being aligned apertures termed in said portions, and a pin receivable in any of the aligned apertures.
(S. A. picturen'iolding comprising a strip of sheet material having a portion bent out of the plane thereof to provide portions dis posed in spaced relation to each other, aligned apertures formed in said portions, and a tapered pin receivable in any of the aligned apertures.
7. A picture molding comprising a strip of sheet material bent to provide two portions disposed in spaced relation to each other and connected by a return bend, there being aligned apertures formed in said portions, a headed pin receivable in said apertures and means for securing said strip to a wall.
in testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
