CORN ER-SUPPQRT FOR PICTU RE-FBAM ES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 700,548, dated ay 20, 1902.
Application filed January 111902. Serial No. 89.335. (No modell) To all whom t may concern:
Be it knOWnthatI, JOHN T. NELSON, `a citizen of vthe United States, residing at ASioux Falls, inthe'oounty of-Minnehaha and State of South Dakota; have invented nevvand use-y ful Improvementsn in Corner Supports for Picture-Frameset `tvhi'chthe` following isa specicationz.:
This invention relates to a corner-support The invention consistsinthe construction and arrang'elnentof the several 'parts'which Will be more fully hereinafter described and claimed. .Y
In the drawings, Figure 1 is afront elevation of acombined glass andfpieturelfshowing the improved corner-,support 'applied thereto. v Fig. 2 is a rearelevationofth'efsaina Fig. 3 is a detail perspective vievvfbffoneloff the corner-supports. Fig; 4 is a blankkfroni-v which the corner-support is shaped. Figg is a Section on:the linel 5,v Fig. l.
Similar numerals of reference arefemployed to indicate corusponding views. Y, l .l l
The numeral l ydesignates azglass or other transparentfacefplate, against the rear face parts in the Several of whiehja picture-2 is adapted to be held-by the improved! corner-supports. :Each ofth ev corner-supports'is `formed from ablank 3,;
(clearly shovvnbyFig.l 4,) having any suitable' ornamental configuration or-design and ap'- proximately' triangular ing contour. From the outer, edgesof vthe bodyof theblank bendable tongues 4 project, twe of thesaid tongues being ini; the.. present instance constructed on each edge, though it will be u nderstood that this numbermay be increasedk Without departing from the principlev of the invention.
Y From the apex of the body of the v blank an elongated bendable arm 5 projects. 'Y
The tongues 4 are doubled or bent over the f body of the blank to provide hooks 6, as
clearly shown by Fig. 3, and the arm 5 is rolled to form an adjustable eye ordloop 7. In assembling the .'parts'of'the picture and 55 the corner-supports the photograph or other picture 2 is placed'agaist the glass 1 and the corner-supports are applied, as shown by Fig. l, with the hooks 6 engaging the back of -the corner portions of the picture, as clearly 6u shovvn by`Fig.`v 2.' Owing to the bendable nature of the hooks 6 any thickness of glass or picture may be accommodated, and by tightly pressing: the said hooks against the picture the latter Will be held in immovable relation to the glass. Through the eye 7l a suitable chain or otherileXible support 8 is threaded Vand drawn sufciently taut, and afvter insertion ofthe chain or other ilexible device throughthe eyes the latter are bent to closely embrace the portions of the chain passing'therethrougm or in some instances,
nexiblelengths 10,'converging toward an up- 8o perrsuspending-ring 11, to -rvhich they are' l Iseenrely fastened;` By the use of the chain or otherlexible device 8 thesupporting strain is'distributed around thepicture andis concentrated directly at ,the .four corners, the weight of the picturevand glass, as well as thev .cornersupports,`which is concentrated on the bottoinot thechain or kother device 8, being i equali'z'edLthroughout the entire chain 8 and "AS an auxiliary, though not essential in alll ..ins'tances,.a securing bar or strapv12is employed and has its terminals-bent aroundopposite side edge portionsof thepicture and glassfor other transparentcoverinff.. .This bar' or strap extends transversely@overfth'e back of the picture 2,"atabout the centerthereof., and serves to preventl the saidpicture'from v l buckling or warping.l
The improved (':onstruction and arrangement of parts disclosed provides-a neat and pleasing vmeans forl securing a` picture to transparent covering, as Well asta convenient Y "and durable means forsu'pporting or hangingvvik,
IOO
a picture and dispenses with the usual forms of frames or picture inclosnres. The cost of manufacture of the improved corner-support and fastening as set forth is reduced to a minimum and an economical means for attaching and holding a picture in connection with a transparent faceplate is provided. The design of the chain or other flexible de- Vice 8 and the hanger 9, as Well as the cornersupports, may be varied at will and the proportions modied to adapt the device to different-sized pictures.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as ner isl. The combination With a picture and a transparent covering therefor, of corner-supports having adjustable eyes projecting outwardly therefrom, a flexible supporting element threaded through the said eyes and surrounding the picture and covering, and a hanger secured to said iexible device.
2. The combination with a picture and a transparent covering therefor, of corner-snpports and fasteners comprising bodies with pairs of inturned hooks on adjacent edges and adjustable eyes intermediate the said hooks, a chain threaded through the said eyes and surrounding the picture and covering, and a hanger attached to the upper part of the said chain.
In testimony whereof I atiiX my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
JOHN T. NELSON.
