Portable sign frame assembly with changeable signage
A sign frame assembly having journally connected frames and appearing as an inverted “V” when deployed on a surface. Each frame has legs connected by a panel, and upper and lower crossbars which are parallel to each other and connect the legs. A receptacle defined by a plane including the panel and which is parallel to and separated from a plane formed by surfaces of the legs, and the upper and lower cross bars is provided to hold a flat object which may be used as a sign. The flat object may be inserted and removed without the use of tools or fasteners.
1. A sign frame assembly, comprising:
a first frame and a second frame, the frames having top portions which are journally connected;
at least one of the frames having side legs, the side legs approximately orthogonal to the top portion, and the side legs being approximately parallel to each other;
a lower cross bar joining the side legs and an upper cross bar disposed parallel to the lower cross bar and joining the side legs, the side legs, an inner surface of the lower cross bar and an inner surface of the upper cross-bar approximately defining a surface of a first plane; and
a panel connecting the side legs, the panel being disposed such that a second plane approximately defined by a facing surface of the panel is displaced by a distance S from the first plane,
wherein the lower cross bar has a first surface orthogonal to the first plane, the first surface facing the top portion, and extending from an inner vertical portion of the lower cross bar towards the second plane.
2. The sign frame assembly according to claim 1 , further comprising a flexible member joining at least one of the side legs of the first frame to at least one of the side legs of the second frame.
3. The sign frame assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the flexible member is one of a chain, a tape or a rope.
4. The sign stand frame assembly according claim 1 , wherein an aperture is formed in a side leg of the side legs, such that the aperture is disposed between the first and second planes and dimensioned so as to permit the insertion of a sign into the space formed between the first plane and the second plane.
