Abstract
The present invention resides in an ornamental holder for holding at least one image. The holder includes a first member having an outer surface and an image retention surface with a window defined between the outer surface and the image retention surface and a second member having a mounting surface, wherein the first member is pivotally connected to the second member to permit pivotal motion of the first member and the second member along parallel planes between a first position wherein the mounting surface confronts the image retention surface to hold the image at the window and a second position wherein the mounting surface is separated from the image retention surface to release the image.
Claims23
An ornamental holder for holding at least one image, the holder comprising:
- a first member having an outer surface and an image retention surface with a window defined between the outer surface and the image retention surface;
- a second member having a mounting surface;
- wherein the first member is pivotally connected to the second member to permit pivotal motion of the first member and the second member along parallel planes between a first position wherein the mounting surface confronts the image retention surface to hold the image at the window and a second position wherein the mounting surface is separated from the image retention surface to release the image.
An ornamental holder for holding at least one image, the holder comprising:
- a first member having an outer surface and an image retention surface with a window defined between the outer surface and the image retention surface, the first member further having a pivot passageway defined between the outer surface and the image surface and the ornamental image holder further having an insert;
- a second member having a mounting surface, the second member defining a pivot pin and a detent to receive the insert;
- wherein the first member is pivotally connected to the second member to permit pivotal motion of the first member and the second member along parallel planes between a first position wherein the mounting surface confronts the image retention surface to hold the image at the window and the detent receives the insert and a second position wherein insert is separated from the detent and the mounting surface is separated from the image retention surface to release the image.
An ornamental holder for holding at least one image, the holder comprising:
- a pair of first members each having an outer surface and an image retention surface with a window defined between the outer surface and the image retention surface;
- and;
- a second member having a pair of mounting surfaces with each mounting surface having a pivot pin;
- wherein each one of the first members is pivotally connected to each one of the pivot pins of the second member to permit pivotal motion between each of the first members and the second member along parallel planes between a first position wherein the image retention surface of each first member confronts the mounting surface to hold the image at the window and a second position wherein the mounting surface is separated from the image retention surface to release the image.
An ornamental holder for holding at least one image, the holder comprising:
- a pair of first members each having an outer surface and an image retention surface with a window defined between the outer surface and the image retention surface and with a projection extending from the image retention surface;
- and;
- a second member having a pair of mounting surfaces with each mounting surface having a pivot pin and an insert positioned away from the pivot pin and shaped for engagement with the detent in image retention surface of one of said first members;
- wherein each one of the first members is pivotally connected to each one of the pivot pins of the second member to permit pivotal motion between each of the first members and the second member along parallel planes between a first position wherein the image retention surface of each first member confronts the mounting surface to hold the image at the window and a second position wherein the mounting surface is separated from the image retention surface to release the image, wherein the projection of the first member engages the recess of the second member when the ornamental image is in the closed position.
