Patent number: 11547222Abstract: A planar display assembly is provided with a planar display pane. A frame is provided with a dado sized to receive the planar display pane. A plurality of retainers mounts to the frame about an inner periphery of the frame to retain the planar display pane within the frame. At least one of the plurality of retainers is elastically deformable to deform during installation of the planar display into the frame, and to expand to retain the planar display pane within the frame. A plurality of apertures or a channel may be formed in the frame about the dado. The plurality of retainers may mount to the frame within the plurality of apertures or the channel of the frame to retain the planar display pane within the frame.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2021Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: LIBERTY HARDWARE MFG. CORP.Inventors: Earl David Forrest, Norman Dax Allen, Jeffrey John Mathison

Patent number: 11452388Abstract: A planar display pane assembly includes a frame assembly with a frame with first and second spaced apart and opposed second decorative with first and second openings to receive a planar display pane. A through opening is formed through the frame to view the planar display pane in either direction of the frame. The first opening is formed around the through opening. The second opening is formed around the through opening and facing away from the first opening. A first plurality of fasteners is formed about the first opening. A second plurality of fasteners is formed about the second opening. A plurality of retainers is sized to engage the first plurality of fasteners or the second plurality of fasteners to retain the planar display pane to the frame. The planar display pane is received within the first opening or the second opening.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2021Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: LIBERTY HARDWARE MFG.

Patent number: 10993555Abstract: A planar display assembly is provided with a pane with a front reflective surface and a rear surface. An array of mounting plates is provided, each with a first fastener, and a polygonal mounting plate adhered to the rear surface by an adhesive. A plurality of second fasteners is each engaged with one of the array of first fasteners for linear adjustment relative to the pane in a direction generally perpendicular to the pane to support the planar display assembly upon an upright support surface. Each mounting plate is oriented upon the pane rear surface such that at least one vertex extends away from the corresponding first fastener in a direction toward another sequential first fastener within the array of first fasteners. A metal bracket is adapted to be mounted to the upright support surface. The bracket has at least one enclosed cleat to receive two of the second fasteners.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2018Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: LIBERTY HARDWARE MFG.
