Abstract
A rectangular cloth fixing frame for use in painting or embroidery. The frame including a plurality of frame portions. Each frame portion including a surface projection near an outer periphery of a front surface thereof and a fixing fitting groove on the outer peripheral end surface. Corner members connect the frame portions so as to form the cloth fixing frame. A cloth such as a canvas of a desired shape is spread over the rectangular frame, a plurality of fixing elements are driven through the canvas and into the fixing fitting groove to thereby fix the canvas to the rectangular frame under tension.
Claims4
A cloth fixing frame comprising a plurality of extrusion-molded frame-pieces, a plurality of corner members for coupling the frame-pieces together to provide a frame and a plurality of fixing means for fixing a cloth to the frame under tension, wherein:
- each of said frame-pieces is provided with a groove extending on and along an outer peripheral end surface thereof over which a cloth extends, a cloth fixing projection portion on a front side and at least a hollow portion into which one end of each of the corner member is fitted,
- each of said fixing means is provided with a leg for being driven into the groove through the cloth and a head provided on said leg for pressing the cloth against the outer peripheral end surface of each of the frame-pieces, and
- either an inner wall surface of the hollow portion of each of the frame-piece or an outer surface of said corner members is provided with a crushable portion whereby when said corner means is press fitted into said hollow portion, the crushable portion is crushed.
A cloth fixing frame comprising a plurality of extrusion-molded frame-pieces, a plurality of corner members for coupling the frame-pieces together to provide a frame and a plurality of fixing means for fixing a cloth to the frame under tension, wherein:
- each of said frame-pieces is provided with a groove extending on and along an outer peripheral end surface thereof over which a cloth extends, a cloth fixing projecting portion on a front side and at least a hollow portion into which one end of each of the corner members is fitted,.
- each of said fixing means is provided with a leg for being driven into the groove through the cloth and a head provided on said leg for pressing the cloth against the outer peripheral end surface of each of the frame-pieces, and
- each of the frame-pieces has a fitting groove on an inner side surface thereof so that at least a reinforcing crosspiece is interposed between each of opposing pairs of the frame-pieces with both ends of the reinforcing crosspiece engaging the fitting grooves of each of the opposing pairs of the frame-pieces, respectively.
A cloth fixing frame comprising a plurality of extrusion-molded frame-pieces, a plurality of corner members for coupling together the frame-pieces to form a frame and a plurality of fixing means for fixing a cloth to the frame under tension, wherein:
- each of the frame-pieces is provided with a groove extending on and along an outer peripheral end surface thereof over which a cloth extends, a cloth fixing projecting portion on a front side and at least a hollow portion into which one end of each of the corner members is fitted.
- each of said fixing means is provided with a leg for being driven into the groove through the cloth and a head provided on said leg for pressing the cloth against the outer peripheral end surface of each of the frame-pieces, and
- each of said frame-pieces is provided on a rear surface thereof with a picture frame fitting groove whose opposing inner wall surfaces are corrugated so as to allow a screw to be screw-fitted into said groove.
A cloth fixing frame comprising a plurality of extrusion-molded frame-pieces, a plurality of corner members for coupling the frame-pieces together to provide a frame and a plurality of fixing means for fixing a cloth to the frame under tension, wherein:
- each of the frame-pieces is provided with a groove extending on and along an outer peripheral end surface thereof over which a cloth extends, a cloth fixing projecting portion on a front side and at least a hollow portion into which one end of each of the corner members is fitted,
- each of said fixing means is provided with a leg for being driven into the groove through the cloth and a head provided on said leg for pressing the cloth against the outer peripheral end surface of each of the frame-pieces,
- opposing inner wall surfaces of said groove are corrugated so that the leg of each of the fixing means comes into frictional contact with the corrugated inner wall surfaces, and
- each of said frame-pieces is made of a material harder than said fixing means and chipping receiving sections are formed on opposing inner wall surfaces of the groove of each of the frame-pieces, respectively, whereby chipping from an outer surface of said fixing means generated when said fixing means is press-fitted into said groove are accumulated in said chipping receiving sections.
