Displays with magnetic couplings

A method comprising:

• affixing a ferromagnetic material to a back side of a display panel;
• arranging a plurality of structural members into a frame sized to display the display panel, at least one of the plurality of structural members including a plurality of walls forming a hollow core in an interior thereof, the plurality of walls including an interior surface and an exterior surface, wherein the exterior surface of at least one of the plurality of walls is parallel to a plane of the display panel when the display panel is positioned on the frame;
• affixing a plurality of magnets to an insert shaped to fit within the hollow core of the at least one of the plurality of structural members;
• inserting the insert into the hollow core of the at least one of the plurality of structural members, wherein the plurality of walls of the structural member includes a front wall and a side wall, and wherein the plurality of magnets are arranged on two or more sides of the insert to provide at least the front wall and the side wall with magnetic surfaces;
• positioning the display panel on the frame thereby magnetically coupling the display panel to the insert through the at least one of the plurality of walls of the at least one of the plurality of structural members of the frame;
• affixing a ferromagnetic material to a back side of a side display panel, the side display panel including a plane that intersects the plane of the display panel, wherein the side wall of the structural member is parallel to the plane of the side display panel when the side display panel is positioned on the side wall;
• and
• positioning the side display panel such that the back side of the side display panel engages the side wall of the structural member such that the side display panel is magnetically coupled to the insert through the side wall.

A display system comprising:

• a display panel having a front side for display and a back side, the display panel having a plane;
• a ferromagnetic material affixed to the back side of the display panel;
• a plurality of structural members forming a frame sized to contain the display panel, at least one of the plurality of structural members including a plurality of walls forming a hollow core in an interior thereof, the plurality of walls including a front wall and a side wall each having an interior surface and an exterior surface, wherein the exterior surface of at least one of the plurality of walls is parallel to the plane of the display panel when the display panel is positioned on the frame;
• an insert shaped to fit within the hollow core of the at least one of the plurality of structural members;
• a plurality of magnets affixed to the insert, the plurality of magnets arranged on two or more sides of the insert to provide at least the front wall and the side wall with magnetic surfaces, the plurality of magnets having a suitable magnetic strength to magnetically couple the display panel to the insert through the at least one of the plurality of walls of the at least one of the plurality of structural members of the frame when the insert is disposed within the hollow core;
• a side display panel having a front side and a back side, the side display panel including a plane that intersects the plane of the display panel, wherein the side wall of the structural member is parallel to the plane of the side display panel when the side display panel is positioned on the side wall;
• and
• a ferromagnetic material affixed to the back side of the side display panel, wherein the back side of the side display panel engages the side wall of the structural member such that the side display panel is magnetically coupled to the insert through the side wall.
