Abstract
A single unit framing mat used to display collectible items, comprised of a top flexible, EVA layer with cut-outs, and a rigid, uncut supporting bottom layer. The top EVA layer has a high co-efficient of friction enabling it to self-seal against a transparent panel when compressed. The self-sealing mat thereby encapsulates and protects display articles from environmental elements. When pressure is released the top EVA mat layer retains its functional integrity and can be reused to encapsulate new display articles. The top EVA layer has a closed-cell structure that is impreviable to moisture and thereby resists wraping. The framing mat may be used to frame display articles of varying thicknesses. The mat may be used in a variety of commercially available picture framing devices that include pressure exerting back hardware.
Description
- This application is a CIP of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/033,517 submitted on Jan. 12, 2005, Titled, “Frame Assembly” which is incorporated herein by reference.
- This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/536,772 submitted on Jan. 15, 2004.
- I. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates to a framing mat designed for displaying, protecting, and allowing for easy changing of collectible articles, such as, but not limited to, postcards, records, compact discs, tokens, pins and medals.
- II. Description of Related Art
- Collecting memorabilia has traditionally been a popular pastime. As everyday articles, such are records and compact discs become obsolete, new categories of collecting open up, and the demand for innovative products to display these types of articles is growing. Collectors, in particular, desire wall displays that provide both protection from environmental elements and allow for easy changing of display articles. Conventional picture framing techniques and related display devices do not provide both features in one unit.
- There are many conventional methods of displaying artwork, photographs and memorabilia. Most methods utilize a retaining backing board or shadow box design and a cellulose based framing mat. In these types of systems, artwork is held in place, by permanently mounting it to the backing board or shadow box construction through a variety of professional techniques. A decorative mat with a cutout window(s) is positioned on top of the backing board or shadow box unit. The mat and mounted artwork are then placed inside a picture frame assembly and secured into place with framing hardware. Typically, framing paper is glued or taped to the back of the frame to prevent moisture and dust from penetrating the assembly thereby preserving artwork from deterioration.
- A framing device noted by Yesbick, U.S. Pat. No. 5,787,625 Aug. 4, 1998, utilizes a permanently adhered gasket as a method of sealing and weatherproofing a display frame for outdoor use.
- A limitation of the Yesbick patent and previously noted conventional methods of picture framing is that they do not allow for easy changing of display articles. Furthermore, they are expensive, time consuming and require professional skill and equipment to be done properly.
- One recent attempt to address the issue of artwork changeability was disclosed by Champnella II, in U.S. Pat. No. 6,796,066 B2, Sep. 28, 2004. This patent discloses the use of multiple, separate mat layers as a way of accessing and holding artwork in place. Artwork is positioned into an article holding mat that has window cut-outs. The article holding mat is then sandwiched between top and bottom mats. The top mat has corresponding window cutouts and must be exactly aligned with the article holding mat. A solid bottom mat is positioned against the article holding mat. A backed hinged piece is used to hold the assembly in place and allow access to the article holding mat.
- One limitation with the above noted patent, is that the separate mat layers do not provide a means of sealing out environment elements. Loose layers allow for penetration of air and moisture into the assembly. Furthermore, the back layer must be removed inorder to access the article holding mat, and therefore, any attempt to bond such layers would render the device useless.
- A further limitation with the above noted patent, is its cumbersome and expensive design. The use of multiple mats with aligning windows makes it tedious to use and increases manufacturing costs.
- Furthermore, since the mat layers are loose, any jolt to the frame assembly can cause the display articles to slip between mat layers.
- In another known device, patented by Hosker, U.S. Pat. No. 4,117,613, Oct. 3, 1978, a photo receiving board is sandwiched behind a decorative window cut panel and in front of a resilient layer. The photo receiving board has a flat surface and is uncut. The decorative panel has multiple window openings with one large center opening. Photographs are inserted through the front, large window and maneuvered into position against the receiving board. Because the receiving board has a resilient backing layer, it can be pushed back allowing photos to be maneuvered into position. When pressure is released, the receiving board then springs back and frictionally engages the photos against the decorative window cut panel. The patent discloses a box type assembly that does not use a front acrylic or glass cover.
- One limitation of the Hosker patent, is that it can only be used with photographs and flat, lightweight objects. Heavier or 3-dimensional articles such as compact discs or records, could not be frictionally supported by this type of design. Furthermore, it is easy to imagine that bumping the frame would cause the photos to slip and misalign.
- Another limitation of the Hosker patent is that the top panel windows are confined by size and distribution requirements. This limits the design flexiblity of the device and its suitability for various types of display articles.
- Yet another limitation of the Hosker patent is that edges of the display articles are hidden by the top panel and full display of the articles is not possible.
- Another limitation of the Hosker patent is that it is an open device and does not provide protection from environmental elements.
- Finally, conventional picture framing techniques and previously noted display devices utilize cellulose based mats and materials which absorb moisture and can cause warping.
- Thus, a need exists for an inexpensive, improved framing mat that overcomes limitations with currently known devices and conventional picture framing methods.
- In view of the above related needs, it is the object of this invention to provide a framing mat for display articles, that when used in conventional picture frame assemblies, encapsulates and protects display articles from environmental elements. This is solved through the use of a mat that self-seals, without the use of adhesives, when pressed against an acrylic or glass cover. The seal prevents environmental elements, such as moisture and dust, from entering the mat cut-outs.
- Another object of this invention is to provide for easy changing of display articles. This is achieved by releasing the frame assembly hardware that applies pressure against the back of the mat. Once pressure is released, the mat can easily be removed and display articles changed. The mat retains its functional integrity and can be reused.
- An additional object of this invention is to provide a mat that resists warping. This is solved through the use of a closed cell EVA material that is impervious to moisture. This solves moisture related problems associated with conventional cellulose based picture framing mats.
- Another object of this invention is to provide a framing mat that is simple to use and does not require the alignment of multiple mat layers. This is solved through the use of a single unit mat with top layer recessed openings.
- Another object of this invention is to prevent display articles from slipping between loose mat layers. This is solved through the use of a single framing mat that because of its unique properties will securely position itself to a transparent framing cover.
- Another object of this invention is to provide a full view of the display articles. This is solved through the use of single framing mat with holding pockets that do not require the use of any additional overlay mats.
- Furthermore, it is the object of this invention to provide a mat design that can provide both a front and back view of display articles when a transparent mat backing is used.
- Furthermore, it is the object of this invention to provide a framing mat that can retain both lightweight and heavier 3-dimensional objects.
- Finally, it is the object of this invention to provide a framing mat that is not limited by size and distribution requirements of window openings.
