Abstract
A display mount including a stand having a first stand leg and a second stand leg, the first stand leg interlocked with the second stand leg forming a joint and a stabilizer releasably coupled to the stand and having a slot, the first stand leg and the second stand leg each extending through the slot fixing the joint in place. The display mount further includes a display releasably coupled to the stand and having a front surface and a rear surface, the rear surface having a recess. A top end of the stand extends into the recess to hold the display in place.
Claims18
A display mount comprising:
- a stand having a first stand leg and a second stand leg, the first stand leg interlocked with the second stand leg forming a joint;
- a stabilizer releasably coupled to the stand and having a slot, the first stand leg and the second stand leg each extending through the slot fixing the joint in place;
- and
- a display releasably coupled to the stand and having a front surface and a rear surface, the rear surface having a recess,
- wherein a top end of the stand extends into the recess to hold the display in place.
A decorative graduation cap display comprising:
- a stand having a bottom edge, a first stand leg and a second stand leg, the first stand leg and the second stand leg each including a plurality of tabs, the plurality of tabs of the first stand leg interlocking with the plurality of tabs of the second stand leg at a substantially 90 degree angle forming a joint, wherein the first stand leg and the second stand leg each include a butterfly tab and a stabilizing wedge;
- a stabilizer coupled to the stand and including a slot, the slot having a first segment and a second segment at a substantially 90 degree angle to the first segment, the first stand leg and the second stand leg each extending through the slot to fix the joint in place, wherein the stabilizer is disposed between the butterfly tabs and the bottom edge and perpendicular to each of the first stand leg and the second stand leg;
- a locking member having a first segment and a second segment;
- an aperture disposed on one of the first stand leg or the second stand leg, the aperture located between the stabilizer and the display, the locking member extending through the aperture;
- a display releasably coupled to the stand and having a front surface with an engraved image and/or message and a rear surface, the rear surface having an almond shaped protrusion to resemble a cap of a graduation cap, the protrusion having a recess sized and shaped to receive each of the butterfly tabs of the first stand leg and second stand leg, the front surface being square shaped to resemble a mortarboard of a graduation cap;
- and
- a tassel coupled to the rear surface of the display and moveable relative to the display to overhang on either side of the front surface of the display.
A method comprising:
- cutting from a single sheet of material a first stand leg, a second stand leg, a stabilizer, and a locking member, wherein multiple copies of the first stand leg, the second stand leg, the stabilizer, and the locking member are sized and shaped to comprise greater than 80% of the single sheet of material;
- removing the first stand leg, the second stand leg, the stabilizer, and the locking member from the single sheet of material;
- coupling the first stand leg to the second stand leg to form a stand having a joint such that the first stand leg is at a substantially 90 degree angle to the second stand leg when the stand is placed on a horizontal surface;
- coupling the stabilizer to the first stand leg and the second stand leg by sliding the stabilizer over the first stand leg and the second stand leg such that the first stand leg and the second stand leg extend through a slot disposed within the stabilizer to fix the joint in place;
- inserting the locking member through an aperture extending through one of the first stand leg and the second stand leg to prevent the stabilizer from being removed from the stand;
- and
- removeably coupling a display to both of the first stand leg and the second stand leg, the display having a recess, wherein the first stand leg and the second stand leg are inserted into the recess.
