Abstract: A three-dimensional, lightweight and thin frame made from a single sheet of formable material such as printed and embossed paper and a flexible transparent cover. The cover is countersunk into and held flat against a mat region in the center of the front of the frame, leaving the surrounding frame region free for whatever two- and three-dimensional ornament is desired. An article holding recess is further countersunk into the center of the mat region such that when an item is placed therein the cover may still lie perfectly flat and away from the item. The article holding recess may be accessed by pulling the cover up from one side of the mat region, where it is held with restickable adhesive, while the other side remains firmly in place, held with permanent adhesive. An article for display, such as a photo, may then be fixed against the back of the article holding recess, which is also covered with restickable adhesive, and the cover then smoothed back down flat.

Abstract: An improved pop-up system for dispensing sheet products from continuous perforated web material. A perforated web (12) is drawn through a slit-like dispensing opening (14) which, though close-fitting, does not constrict the web (12). Catch flaps (18) capable of swinging out of plane with the web are formed in the web by two symmetrical cuts (20) in the same line extending perpendicularly inward from the longitudinal edges of the web; the cuts each extend through one-third of the web (12) and are bridged by a perforated region (16). When the pop-up presentment (24) is pulled, the catch flaps are drawn to the opening (14) where they catch, bend backward, and jam, becoming caught flaps (22). This causes enough tension in the perforated region (34) drawn outside the opening (14) to break the dispensed individual sheet (10) free, leaving another pop-up presentment (24). A number of different, more developed dispensers for rolls and folded stacks using this system are further detailed in additional embodiments.

Abstract: A frame system for holding a planar display article includes a frame component defining a border region, and a central platform located inward of the border region and including an outer layer of reusable adhesive. A see-through cover is coupled adjacent the central platform and sized to fit over the central platform to be held there by the reusable adhesive. A planar display article may be placed over the central platform and held in place by the reusable adhesive. The see-through cover is movable over the planar display article to protect it.

Abstract: A system combining a fluid dispenser (10) and a pop-up sheet dispenser (12). The fluid dispenser is a bottle (14) with a spray pump (18), while the sheet dispenser (12) is a tub (28) with an opening (30) through which sheets pop out. The two dispensers snap together to trap and store sheets from a longitudinally folded web ready for pop-out dispensing. The primary embodiment may be used for spray cleaner and paper towels, for example. The sheet dispenser (12) provides the system's base, dispensing from a roll (29) with its core (44) held vertically in the tub (28), located by the tub's core-locating hub (40). The fluid dispenser (10) snaps vertically down into the sheet dispenser (12), acting as its lid and further locating the roll (29) with its hub-stem (26). The roll (29), held loosely by the two hubs, may spin within the system. The tub (28), opening (30), and roll (29) may together rotate relative to the fluid dispenser (14) to reorient the opening (30).
