Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a frame, and in particular to a frame suitable to be used as a wall or table picture frame.
  • a lot of frame kinds are known, among which the so called a jour frames, comprising basically a transparent pane fastened to an underlying supporting panel by a plurality of metal clips arranged astride the edges of the transparent pane and of the supporting panel.
  • These known frames could turn out to be dangerous during their assemblage and use, since the metal clips are rather cutting and could be swallowed by a child if separated from the frame. Further, in case of accidental impact, the transparent pane could easily break since it is stiffly fastened to the supporting panel.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a frame free from such drawbacks, that is, a frame which is safe and resistant during assemblage and use. Said object is achieved by a frame having its main features disclosed in the first claim and other features disclosed in the following claims.
  • the transparent pane of the frame according to the present invention can be fastened to the panel in a simple, fast and steady way without the help of metal pieces.
  • Another advantage of the frame according to the present invention is that such an elastic thread or band is able to absorb possible accidental shocks and does not transmit them to the transparent pane, so as to prevent it from breaking.
  • FIG. 1 shows a front view of this embodiment
  • Fig. 1 shows a back view of the embodiment of Fig. 1.
  • the frame according to the present embodiment of the invention is shown to comprise in a known way a transparent pane 1, particularly of rectangular shape, made for example of a vitreous or plastic material.
  • the transparent pane 1 is fastened to an underlying supporting panel 2, particularly of rectangular shape with rounded corners, made for example of a capitaous or plastic material.
  • the supporting panel 2 has suitably a plurality of pairs of through holes 3. 3 " made substantially at the transparent pane 1 edges, preferably near to the comers thereof. Each one of the holes 3, 3' is preferably connected to the edges of the supporting panel 2 by a cut 4 having an inclination of 45° and turned towards the center of the panel.
  • the supporting panel 2 could provide an additional plurality of pa s of through holes 5, 5', also made at the edges of transparent pane 1, but at a greater distance from the corners thereof compared to holes 3, 3', for instance at about one quarter of the whole length of the relevant edge.
  • holes 5. 5" are preferably connected to the edges of supporting panel 2 by a cut 6 having an inclination of 45°, but opposite in direction with respect to that of the adjacent cut 4.
  • At least one thread or band 7 of elastic material which is passed with an alternate sequence through holes 3, 3', 5 and 5 for instance by passing it through cuts 4 and 6, so as to be placed partly on the back of the supporting panel 2 and partly on the front of the transparent pane 1, astride the edges thereof.
  • the portions of the thread or band 7 within two holes 5, 5' are arranged on the supporting panel 2 and are adjacent to the edges of the transparent pane 1, in order to hold it and to prevent undesirable shifts due to the weight thereof.
  • the ends of the thread or band 7 are shown to be preferably joined together by a metal sleeve 8, so that the thread or band 7 forms a closed ring.
  • a bearing member comprising two wings 9, 9' substantially triangular and of the same size, which are joined together along one of their edges.
  • Each one of these wings 9, 9' is provided of at least a through hole 10 acting as a seat for the thread or band 7, said hole being preferably joined to the wing edge 9 or 9' by a cut 11 turned towards the supporting panel 2.
  • a hook not shown in the figure
  • the transparent frame 1 In order to insert or remove a sheet, comprising for example a drawing or a picture, to be set in the frame of the present invention, it is enough to pull the thread or band 7 towards the outside, so as to free at least one corner of the transparent pane 1. At this point the transparent pane 1 can be separated from the supporting panel 2, leaving free access to the area wherein said sheet is or has to be placed. It is obvious that, in other embodiments of the frame according to the present invention, the transparent frame 1, the supporting panel 2 and the thread or band 7 can be made with different shapes and materials, as well as adorned with graphics of different colors.
