Abstract
A modular framing system with assorted connection devices which permit customization of the modular frame system for a variety of purposes. Connection devices include bases, adapters, extenders, connectors and enclosers. Connection devices have male and/or female components allowing the connection devices to fit together in a variety of configurations to form a variety of modular frames. A further connection device is an attachment connector that is connected to a side wall opening of the base, adapter, extender, connector or encloser and creates a platform that may be varied in size and an object may be placed on the platform.
Claims20
A modular framing system comprising:
- a base that is substantially hollow having a base top, a base bottom and base side walls having openings, wherein the base top is a female-shaped opening;
- an adapter that is substantially hollow having an adapter top, an adapter bottom and adapter side walls having openings, wherein the adapter top is a female-shaped opening and the adapter bottom is a male-shaped opening such that the adapter bottom is shaped to be received by the base top;
- one or more extenders that are substantially hollow having an extender top, an extender bottom and extender side walls having openings, wherein the extender top is a female-shaped opening and the extender bottom is a male-shaped opening such that the extender bottom is shaped to be received by the adapter top;
- and
- at least one attachment connector adapted to be removeably attached to any one of the openings in the base, extender or top.
A modular framing system comprising:
- a base that is substantially hollow having a base top, a base bottom and base side walls having openings, wherein the base top is a male-shaped opening;
- one or more extenders that are substantially hollow having an extender top, an extender bottom and extender side walls having openings, wherein the extender top is a female-shaped opening and the extender bottom is a male-shaped opening such that the extender top is shaped to be received by the base top.
A modular frame comprising two modular units connected by a rod having two ends, wherein each modular unit comprises a base, an adapter, at least one extender, a top, and at least one attachment connector,
- said extender having openings in extender side walls and said attachment connecter adapted to be removeably attached to any one of the openings in said one or more extender, in which the at least one attachment connector comprises:
- a bracket overhang that is adapted to fit into the base side walls openings, the adapter side wall openings, the connector side wall openings, or the top piece side wall openings,
- a bracket base wall, a bracket side wall, a bracket end wall, and
- a bracket opening adapted to slideably receive the attachment connector tongue,
- wherein a space defined by bracket base wall, bracket side wall, the end plate and the extended arm creates a platform that may be varied in size by sliding the attachment connector tongue towards and away from the bracket through the bracket opening;
- and wherein an end of the two ends of said rod is placed on each of the platforms of the two attachment connectors.
