  • Publication number: 20080297012
    Abstract: An artistic flat panel concealment screen is shown for discretely concealing a display device or the like, when the device is not in use. The invention can be articulated using a set of panels and mechanical hinges, which expose the display device for use when the invention is in the “open” position. In the open position, the panels are permitted to fold out of the way and preferably flat against an adjacent surface through use of riser plates. When the display is not in use, the panels of the invention can be “closed” to conceal the unused display device behind a piece of “art” or décor that is applied to the outside of the panels. The panels of the invention span a concealment box that is used to surround the display device and provide the enclosure for the device. The concealment box may either be an external structure mounted to the surface of an existing wall or may be a recess into a wall or other structure of a building such as a bookshelf or furniture piece.
