Abstract
A structure for mounting lightweight articles to planar surfaces such as walls, corkboards, display boards and the like. The structure includes a strip fabricated from transparent material. A respective pin is embedded or attached at each end of the strip and extends from the undersurface thereof. The strip can be manufactured at various lengths to accommodate different sized articles and can be made in different colors to accommodate aesthetic tastes. The strip can be relatively stiff or highly flexible depending on intended use.
Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/759,619, filed Jan. 18, 2006.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention generally relates to support structures. More specifically, the present invention is drawn to a strip for fastening lightweight articles to planar surfaces.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Mounting favorite photographs, children's drawings, postcards and similar lightweight articles to walls or bulletin boards often presents problems in that many presently-used mounting structures obscure a portion of the mounted article or worse, cause damage to the article. The art would certainly welcome a mounting structure that can be easily and quickly attached to a planar surface to support a desired article without marring or obscuring the article.
- The related art is rife with mounting means for photographs, postcards, pictures and the like. Pertinent examples of such related art are cited and identified in the accompanying IDS. However, none of the cited and identified related art discloses a transparent mounting structure as will subsequently be described and claimed in the instant invention.
- The present invention, to be dubbed Picture Tacs, incorporates a structure for mounting articles to planar surfaces such as walls, corkboards, display boards and the like. In its basic form, the invention comprises a strip fabricated from transparent material. A respective pin is embedded or attached at each end of the strip and extends from the undersurface thereof. The strip can be manufactured at various lengths to accommodate different sized articles and can be made in different colors to accommodate aesthetic tastes. The strip can be relatively stiff or highly flexible depending on intended use. The strip can also incorporate gripping portions positioned on its upper surface.
- Accordingly, the invention presents mounting structures that allow for the display of lightweight articles without fear of damage or obstruction. As contemplated, the invention is usable in the home or office. Professional artists and photographers can also find use for the mounting structures. The structures are fabricated from transparent material and are designed to effect quick and easy mounting. The invention provides for improved elements thereof in an arrangement for the purposes described that are inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing their intended purposes.
- A clear understanding of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
-
FIG. 1 is an environmental, perspective view of a transparent mounting strip according to the present invention. -
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of a transparent mounting strip according to the present invention. -
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of a transparent mounting strip according to the present invention. -
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a third embodiment of a transparent mounting strip according to the present invention. - Similar reference characters denote corresponding features consistently throughout the attached drawings.
- Attention is first directed to
FIG. 1 wherein the mounting strips of the present invention are generally indicated at 10.Strips 10 are utilized to mount aCD case 12 for display. As shown,CD case 12 is mounted to a corkboard orbulletin board 14. As indicated above, the strips can be employed to mount a variety of articles. - A first embodiment of a
strip 10 is illustrated inFIG. 2 .Strip 10 is fabricated from a relatively stiff, transparent material having anupper surface 16 and anundersurface 16 a. The ends of the strip are defined at 16 b and 16 c. The transparent head of a respective pin ortack 18 is embedded adjacent each end of the strip and extends fromundersurface 16 a.Tack 18 terminates in asharp point 18 a. - The embodiment of
FIG. 3 is similar to that ofFIG. 2 except that the pins or tacks 20 protrude throughupper surface 16. Eachtack 20 has a substantially flat top, which top can be inscribed or otherwise provided with a design, logo, trademark, etc. thereon. Each tack is provided with atiny lip 20 a to provide for enhanced manipulation ofstrips 10. - As best seen in
FIG. 4 ,strip 10 is fabricated from a material and can be easily flexed as opposed to the relatively stiff material disclosed inFIGS. 2 and 3 . It is obvious that both embodiments could employ either flexible or relatively stiff material depending on intended use. - To use, the user partially inserts the pins into the planar surface of the wall or board, places the edges of the article beneath the strip between the pins and pushes the pins in the wall or board to secure the article thereon.
- It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims.
