Panel-securing frame structure and fabrication method thereof

Abstract

A panel-securing frame structure and a fabrication method thereof are disclosed for accommodating a LCD panel. The present invention is to utilize an angled mold to form an even number of angled members which are identical in shape and size, and then to connect the angled members together in the way that the openings of the angled members are opposite to each other. Further, a stripe-shaped mold is used to form an even number of stripe-shaped members which are identical in shape and size, and then to connect the stripe-shaped members respectively to the angled members. Another feature of the present feature is to form a plurality of decoration patterns on the appearance of the frame structure, and the decoration patterns are identical to the common appearance pattern of the connection portions of the angled members and/or the stripe-shaped members.

       9 . The frame structure of  claim 8 , further comprising: 
 a plurality of second decoration patterns respectively located on the exterior surfaces of said second angled members, wherein said second decoration patterns are identical to said common appearance pattern.    
   
   
       10 . The frame structure of  claim 8 , further comprising: 
 an even number of first striped members which are identical in size and shape, wherein each of said first striped members is connected respectively to each of said first angled members and each of said second angled members.    
   
   
       11 . The frame structure of  claim 10 , further comprising: 
 a plurality of second decoration patterns respectively located on the exterior surfaces of said first striped members, wherein said second decoration patterns are identical to said common appearance pattern.    
   
   
       12 . The frame structure of  claim 10 , wherein said first angled members are two first L-shaped members, and said second angled members are two second L-shaped members, and the number of said first striped members is two.  
   
   
       13 . The frame structure of  claim 12 , wherein both ends of each of said first striped members have the forms identical to a first connection pattern and a second connection pattern, and both ends of each of said first L-shaped members have the forms identical to said first connection pattern, and both ends of each of said second L-shaped members have the forms identical to said second connection pattern, and said first connection pattern is combined with said second connection pattern to form said common appearance pattern.  
   
   
       14 . The frame structure of  claim 8 , further comprising: 
 an even number of first striped members which are identical in size and shape, wherein each of said first striped members is connected respectively to each of said first angled members and each of said second angled members, thereby increasing the length of said frame structure; and    an even number of second striped members which are identical in size and shape, wherein each of said second striped members is connected respectively to each of said first angled members and each of said second angled members, thereby increasing the width of said frame structure.
