Abstract

Claims (26)

1 . A display frame assembly to hold a Silicon Edge Graphic (SEG) display fabric and a slatwall bracket, comprising:

a plurality of extrusion members,

wherein each extrusion member of the plurality of the extrusion members is attached to a neighboring extrusion member to form a display frame,

wherein a first extrusion member provides a peripheral edge of a first face of the display frame;

to hold the SEG display fabric and the slatwall bracket on the first face, and

wherein the first extrusion member comprises:

a first profile comprising a groove adapted to accommodate and retain a silicon edge of a corresponding SEG display fabric; and

a second profile comprising a slot adapted to accommodate and clamp onto a cooperating member of the slatwall bracket to display a plurality of products.

2 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein each extrusion member further comprises a channel arranged in a central part of each extrusion member, wherein the channel is adapted to retain a planar supporting member.

3 . The display frame assembly of claim 2 , wherein the planar supporting member comprises a first face pointing towards a first direction and a second face pointing towards a second direction opposite to the first direction, and wherein the first extrusion member comprises a first extrusion component arranged on a corresponding peripheral edge of the first face of the planar supporting member and a second extrusion component arranged on a corresponding peripheral edge of the second face, such that a central part of the first extrusion component is in contact with a central part of the second extrusion component.

4 . The display frame assembly of claim 3 , wherein the channel is adapted to hold a board for supporting an array of Light Emitting Diode components (LED's).

5 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first profile further comprises a raised surface portion within the groove of the first profile, wherein the raised surface portion is adapted to increase a hold of the groove over the silicon edge of the corresponding SEG display fabric.

6 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one extrusion member is made using one of: aluminium, steel.

7 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein the corresponding SEG display fabric is made using one of: a high-resolution fabric, a polyester.

8 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein the groove in the first profile comprises a friction-fit mechanism to retain the silicon edge of the corresponding SEG display fabric.

9 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one extrusion member further comprises an internal bracket, wherein the internal bracket is adapted to hold a first end of an L-shaped supporting plate, wherein a second end of the L-shaped supporting plate is held by an adjacent extrusion member attached to another peripheral edge adjacent to a corresponding peripheral edge.

10 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a support structure, wherein the support structure is one of: a foot support, a wall support.

11 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein the display frame is attached to a second SEG display frame to extend the display frame.

12 . The display frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein the groove in the first profile comprises a plurality of raised edges.

13 . The display frame assembly of claim 12 , wherein a depth of each raised edge amongst the plurality of raised edge is in a range of 0.5 mm to 2 mm.

14 . The display frame assembly of claim 12 , wherein a width of each raised edge amongst the plurality of raised edge is in a range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm.

15 . A method for manufacturing a display frame assembly to hold a Silicon Edge Graphic (SEG) display fabric and a slatwall bracket, comprising:

assembling a plurality of extrusion members to form a display frame, wherein a first extrusion member provides a peripheral edge of a first face of the display frame;

adapting by the first extrusion member to hold the SEG display fabric and a slatwall bracket on the first face of the display frame, and wherein the first extrusion member comprises:

a first profile comprising a groove adapted to accommodate and retain a silicon edge of a corresponding SEG display fabric, and

a second profile comprising a slot adapted to accommodate and clamp onto a cooperating member of a slatwall bracket to display a plurality of products.
