Abstract
A display item frame with a front member formed of a transparent material; a rear member; at least one magnet attached to the front member or the rear member and at least one magnetic material attached to the rear member or the front member, respectively, wherein the magnet and the magnetic material cooperate to hold the front member and the rear member together; ornamentation located on the front surface of the front member and covering the magnet or magnetic material; and a block support for supporting the front member and the rear member in a viewable configuration.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A display item frame comprising:
a) a front member formed from a transparent material; b) a rear member; c) a magnetic attachment means for holding the front member and the back member in a removable manner; and d) a decorative member capable of covering the attachment means, wherein a display item is held between the front member and the rear member.
2 . The frame as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the magnetic attachment means is at least one magnet and at least one magnetic material; and the magnet and the magnetic material cooperate to hold the front member and the rear member together.
3 . The frame as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one magnet is attached to the front member.
4 . The frame as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one magnetic material is attached to the rear member.
5 . The frame as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one magnet is attached to the rear member.
6 . The frame as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one magnetic is attached to the front member.
7 . The frame as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
e) a block support for supporting the front member and the rear member in a viewable configuration, the block support comprising a slot into which the front member and the rear member can fit when the front member and the rear member are magnetically held together.
8 . The frame as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rear member has approximately the same dimensions as the front member.
9 . The frame as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the front member is at least partially transparent and the rear member is opaque.
10 . A display item frame comprising:
a) a front member formed of a transparent material; b) a rear member; c) at least one first attachment means attached to the front member and being selected from the group consisting of magnets and magnetic materials; d) at least one second attachment means attached to the rear member and being selected from the group consisting of magnets and magnetic materials; and e) a decorative member capable of covering the first attachment means such that the first attachment means is not viewable from a frontal viewing angle, wherein the magnet and the magnetic material cooperate to hold the front member and the rear member together, and a display item is held between the front member and the rear member.
11 . The frame as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the at least one magnet is attached to the front member.
12 . The frame as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the at least one magnetic material is attached to the rear member.
13 . The frame as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the at least one magnet is attached to the rear member.
14 . The frame as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the at least one magnetic is attached to the front member.
15 . The frame as claimed in claim 10 , further comprising:
f) a block support for supporting the front member and the rear member in a viewable configuration, the block support comprising a slot into which the front member and the rear member can fit when the front member and the rear member are magnetically held together.
16 . The frame as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the rear member has approximately the same as the front member.
17 . The frame as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the front member is at least partially transparent and the rear member is opaque.
18 . A display item frame comprising:
a) a front member formed of a transparent material having a length, a width, a thickness, a front surface, and a back surface; b) a rear member having a length approximately the same as the length of the front member, a width approximately the same as the width of the front member, a thickness, a front surface, and a back surface; c) at least one magnet attached to the front surface of the front member or the back surface of the rear member and at least one magnetic material attached to the back surface of the rear member or the front surface of the front member, respectively, wherein the magnet and the magnetic material cooperate to hold the front member and the rear member together; d) a decorative member capable of covering the magnet or magnetic material attached to the front surface of the front member such that the magnet or magnetic material attached to the front surface of the front member is not viewable from a frontal viewing angle; and e) a block support for supporting the front member and the rear member in a viewable configuration, the block support comprising a slot into which the front member and the rear member can fit when the front member and the rear member are magnetically held together.
19 . The frame as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the front member is at least partially transparent and the rear member is opaque.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
