Abstract
A fastener for an image display assembly comprising a polygonal planar body having a ventral surface with at least one fastening member extending from the ventral surface. The fastening member comprises a fastening member body and at least one cantilever tab extending from the fastening member body. Each cantilever tab comprises a fastener retainer facing the ventral surface. Also provided is an image display assembly comprising retaining features; an assembled image display comprising said image display assembly and said fastener; a kit comprising said image display assembly and said fastener; a method of creating an image display; and use of said image display assembly and said fastener to create an image display.
Claims18
An image display assembly comprising:
- an image display base comprising:
- a center section, and
- a plurality of foldable segments extending away from the center section and configured to fold relative to the center section, the plurality of foldable segments comprising distal segments, wherein:
- the center section and the plurality of foldable segments form a hollow, and
- the distal segments define an entrance to the hollow, wherein the distal segments surround the entrance to the hollow;
- and
- a fastener comprising a planar body and a plurality of cantilever tabs extending parallel to the planar body to form a space therebetween, wherein the fastener is configured to couple to each of the distal segments to form an assembled image display when distal ends of the distal segments are inserted into the space,
- wherein the plurality of foldable segments comprises a first foldable segment extending from a first edge of the center section, and a second foldable segment extending from a second edge of the center section opposite the first edge, and
- wherein the distal segments of the first and second foldable segments couple with the fastener.
An image display assembly comprising:
- an image base comprising a plurality of foldable segments configured to form a support structure defining a hollow in an assembled configuration, wherein in the assembled configuration, distal segments of the plurality of foldable segments define an entrance to the hollow and the plurality of foldable segments surrounds the hollow;
- and
- a fastener comprising a planar body and a plurality of cantilever tabs extending parallel to the planar body to form a space therebetween, wherein the fastener is configured to connect with the distal segments of each foldable segment among the plurality of foldable segments when a distal end of the distal segments is inserted into the space, and wherein the planar body substantially covers the entrance to the hollow in the assembled configuration.
