  • Patent number: 10433439
    Abstract: An improved cover unit for thin flat display panels provides consumers with the ability to purchase and install a cover unit without the aid of a skilled technician. The cover unit is for use with flat panel displays, including ultra-thin displays, which are thin and lightweight. The cover unit is secured to a wall with mounting brackets, and has a housing that supports the frame, display unit, a matte and a roller on which a cover is mounted. The cover has artwork on it, which is displayed when it is rolled down to conceal the flat display panel, but which can be rolled up out of the way when the display unit is in operation. The matte allows for a single cover unit to accommodate a variety of display screen and artwork sizes. In this system, the roller, display unit and matte are easily inserted and removed from the housing.

  • Publication number: 20080049400
    Abstract: The present invention provides a flat screen display cover for a video display unit that is mounted to a wall. In an illustrative embodiment, the cover unit includes a frame, a box-like extension located behind the frame, and a movable cover attached to a roller that is located within and supported by the extension. A motor unit located within the extension is operable to rotate the roller so that the movable cover acts to cover and uncover the display panel. A mat is disposed within the extension and supported between the movable cover and the display screen so that when the art cover is removed from in front of the video display screen, the user will not see a gap between the border of the screen and the art frame. Various size mats, or the cutting of various size openings in a mat, allow for a single-sized art frame to accommodate a variety of display screen sizes, as well as a variety of art print sizes.

The two cushioned panels of the carrying case are pivotally connected to one another and in an open configuration the panels are adapted to be placed on the second seat as a cushion.
