  • Patent number: 10347162
    Abstract: A multi-panel display board that has a plurality of panels, which include a central panel, two transition panels, two side panels, a header panel and a footer panel. The header panel and the footer panel each flex in an analogous manner with each other between a fold-in orientation and a fold-out orientation and they extend from panel creases that lie between the side panels and the transition panels. The central panel is between the transition panels and separated from them by transition creases. Both the header panel and footer panel have segment creases about which portions of them pivot. A platform extends over the footer panel and simultaneously extends underneath the two transition panels and the central panel.

  • Patent number: 10297175
    Abstract: A blank and method of folding same into a multi-panel display board that has a plurality of panels, which include a central panel, two side panels and a header panel, and that has a plurality of beaded portions spaced apart from each other by intervening slit portions. One of the creases lies between the central panel and one of the side panels and another crease lies between the central panel and the remaining one of the side panels. The header panel flexes from a fold-in position to a fold-out position and whose opposite ends from respective creases with the two side panels.

  • Patent number: 10170024
    Abstract: A multi-panel display project board with a center panel between two side panels and with a header panel movable between a fold-in position and a fold-out position. Each panel has a medium sandwiched between two linerboards. Creases between the panels are formed by slitting linerboard beneath the creases. The side panels may be spread apart to define obtuse angles relative to the central panel and yet retain their position on their own when erected on a flat surface. The header panel has a long segment separated from two shorter segments by segment creases. When the header panel is in the fold-in position after pivoting from a fully folded orientation about panel creases, the shorter segments define respective obtuse angles with the long segment. In the fold-out position after pivoting the header panel about additional creases, the shorter segments define respective reflex angles instead.

  • Patent number: 10163378
    Abstract: A multi-panel display project board with a center panel between two side panels and with a header panel movable between a fold-in position and a fold-out position. Each panel has a medium sandwiched between two linerboards. Creases between the panels are formed by slitting linerboard beneath the creases or by forming the creases each as a crushed score. The header panel has a long segment separated from two shorter segments by segment creases. When the header panel is in the fold-in position after pivoting from a fully folded orientation about panel creases, the shorter segments define respective obtuse angles with the long segment. In the fold-out position after pivoting the header panel about additional creases, the shorter segments define respective reflex angles instead. There is no footer or braces.
