Definitions

  • This invention relates to material for use in forming a frame or surround for pictures, display cards, mirrors or the like.
  • the pas-partout method has the advantage of being an economical method of framing, which is easily applied as the pas-partout strip is available in reel form. It has, however, the disadvantage that it provides a flat surround or frame and has none of the pleasing characteristics of the conventional wooden, metallic, or like rigid frames.
  • framing material for use in forming a frame or surround of a picture or the like comprises a strip of flexible material one face of which is coated with an adhesive compound and the other face of which is provided with a raised flexible beading or the like extending longitudinally of the strip.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a section of a strip according to one embodiment of the inventlon
  • Fig. 2 is a similar view of a modified form of s p.
  • Fig. 3 is a perspective View of a reel of a strip according to a further modification of the invention.
  • Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the under or adhesively-coated side of the strip according to Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 5 is a fragmentary plan view of a picture framed by means of the strip shown in Fig. 1, and
  • Fig. 6 is a section on the line 6-6 of Fig. 5.
  • the framing material comprises a strip I of flexible material in the form of a raised beading or the like which is bonded by suitable means to the upper face of a flexible strip 2 of paper, fabric, or other suitable material, which is wider than the strip I and is provided with a coating of an adhesive compound on its under face 3.
  • FIG. 1 A8 shown in Fig. lthe strip 1 is of stepped form 2 in cross section.
  • the strip l, shown in Fig. 2 is similar in outward appearance to that of Fig. 1 but is hollow and formed with a longitudinal channel 4.
  • a further modified form of strip is shown in Fig. 3 and comprises a series of raised parallel ribs or corrugations la.
  • the strip I which is adapted to form th actual frame or surrounds of the pictures or the like, is narrower than the strip 2 and extends continuously along one longitudinal edge thereof.
  • Figs. 5 and 6 show the strip applied to form a frame of a picture.
  • portions of the material are cut from a continuous length of the material such as the reel shown in Fig. 3, and the ends of the portions cut to form corner joint edges 9 extending at an angle of 45 to the edge of the strip.
  • one of the portions of the strip of material a is positioned on the glass 6 which covers the picture 1, the edge lb of the strip extending along the edge of the glass and the strip being stuck to the glass by the adhesive coating on the underface 3.
  • the outwardly extending portion of the strip 2 is then folded over the panel 8 at the back of the picture and pressed flat to make the adhesive coating adhere to the panel 8.
  • Another portion b of the framing material is positioned and stuck to the adjacent edge of the glass 6 and panel 8. the edges 9 being positioned in abutment at the corner, as shown in Fig. 5. Further portions of the material are secured along other edges of the picture (not shown), to provide a complete frame or surround, which is of raised form, simulating a rigid wooden or metal frame.
  • the under face 3 of the strip 2 is formed with a series of lines 5, which intersect to form a lattice-like pattern.
  • the lines intersect one another at right angles and form an angle of 45 with the longitudinal edges of the strip 2.
  • the strip I may be formed of any suitable material which is sufficiently flexible to permit the strip to be wound into a reel as shown in Fig. 3. If desired, it may be formed of resinous material, for example a vinyl resin such as polyvinyl chloride and the strip may be produced by extrusion, moulding or other operations.
  • resinous material for example a vinyl resin such as polyvinyl chloride and the strip may be produced by extrusion, moulding or other operations.
