PICTURE-MOLDING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 628,140, dated July 4, 1899.
Application filed October 18, 1897. Serial No. 655,531. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
vention consists in a picture-moldin g having.
a series of projections or hooks formed upon its surface which are adapted to receive the cord of a picture and which are preferably so formed that they will also contribute to the ornamental appearance ofthe molding.
In carrying out the present invention it is preferred to form the surface of the molding, in Whole or in part, from'a strip of metal or other suitable material, upon which the series of projections or hooks are formed by offsetting or bending outward portions of said strip, so that said hooks are integral portions of said strip.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View of a molding formed from a strip of metal and provided with the present improvements. Fig. 2 is a perspective View of a Wooden molding provided with the pres entimprovements. Fig. 3 is a modified form of molding formed from a metal strip.
In Fig. 1 the molding is formed by bending a metal strip B into any ornamental shape, and the series ofprojections or. hooks are in the form of offset portions A, which are bent outward from the strip B and are adapted to receive the cord of a picture or other article which it may be desired to suspend against the wall of a room. These projections may be of any desired shape, and the projections may vary in form upon the same molding and will preferablybe arranged and ornamented to add to the attractive appearance of the molding. The projections are also preferably arranged at short distances apart, so that a picture may be hung at any point and so that in case of a heavy picture the cordmay be supported on several hooks, if desired.
In Fig. 2 the molding D, the body of which v is formed of wood, has a portion of its front surface formed bythe metal strip 0, upon which the series of projections or hooks A are formed by offsetting portions of said strip, as in the case of strip B in Fig. 1.
In Fig. 3 the projections or hooks A are formed upon one edge "of the strip E.
It will be understood that the arrangement of the projections, as well as the shape of the molding, may be varied as desired.
By thus forming a series of projections or offset portions upon the surface of the molding, upon which articles may be supported, it will be seen that the necessity for the use of picture-hooks or special hanging devices is overcome and that an article may be suspendedat any desired point or its position changed without inconvenience, and by forming the projections by bending out or offsetting portions of a strip of metal or other suitable material said projections may be conveniently and cheaply formed and will 'oifer a strong support for the suspended article.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. A picture-molding having a series of integral projections upon its surfaceforming hooks over which the supporting-cords of articles may be passed, substantially as described.
2. A picture-molding formed from a metal strip and having a series of offset portions forming hooks over which the supporting cords of articles may be passed, substantially as described.
