Deployable stand assemblies with folding hinges and related methods

A deployable stand for print media comprising:

• a first cover panel and a second cover panel, the first cover panel coupled to the second cover panel;
• a first folding assembly comprising a first panel, a second panel, and a third panel, a first edge of the first panel of the first folding assembly hinged to the first cover panel, a second edge of the first panel of the first folding assembly hinged to a first edge of the second panel of the first folding assembly, and a second edge of the second panel of the first folding assembly hinged to a first edge of the third panel of the first folding assembly;
• a second folding assembly spaced from the first folding assembly by a gap and comprising a first panel, a second panel, and a third panel, a first edge of the first panel of the second folding assembly hinged to the second cover panel, a second edge of the first panel of the second folding assembly hinged to a first edge of the second panel of the second folding assembly, and a second edge of the second panel of the second folding assembly hinged to a first edge of the third panel of the second folding assembly;
• wherein the first cover panel comprises a first side for facing the print media, a second side opposing the first side and a storage pocket having an opening on the second side;
• wherein the first folding assembly has a deployed position, the deployed position is defined by the first panel of the first folding assembly being positioned at an acute angle relative to the first cover panel and the first, second, and third panels of the first folding assembly being located on the second side;
• wherein the first folding assembly has a flat position with the first panel of the first folding assembly, the second panel of the first folding assembly, and the third panel of the first folding assembly being substantially co-planar;
• and
• wherein the third panel of the first folding assembly is received in the storage pocket in the flat position.

A deployable stand for print media comprising:

• a cover panel having a bottom edge, a top edge, a first side for facing the print media, a second side opposite the first side, a deployed pocket having an opening on the second side, and a cover length measured between the bottom edge and the top edge;
• and
• a folding assembly rotatably hinged to the cover panel, the folding assembly comprising:
• a first panel comprising a first edge and an opposed second edge, the first edge of the first panel hinged to the bottom edge of the cover panel;
• a second panel comprising a first edge and an opposed second edge, the first edge of the second panel hinged to the second edge of the first panel;
• and
• a third panel comprising a first edge, the first edge of the third panel hinged to the second edge of the second panel;
• wherein the folding assembly has a deployed position and a flat position;
• wherein the deployed position is defined by the first panel being positioned at an acute angle relative to the cover panel, the third panel being located in the deployed pocket, and the first, second, and third panels being located on the second side of the cover panel;
• wherein the flat position is defined by the first panel, the second panel, and the third panel being substantially co-planar and the third panel being spaced further away from the first panel than the second panel;
• and
• wherein the folding assembly has a folding assembly length in the flat position, and wherein the cover length is longer than the folding assembly length.
