Definitions

  • This invention relates to the framing of signs and a framing section for use therein.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a new and inventive way of forming a frame around a sign.
  • the present invention provides a sign comprising a sheet of plastics material having a front face and a side face surrounding said front face, characterised by a frame formed of a plastics extrusion and extending around the periphery of the sheet and which, in transverse cross section, comprises a top part which partially overlies said front face of the sheet and is secured thereto by an adhesive layer, and a side wall which covers or substantially covers the side face of the sheet.
  • the adhesive layer preferably comprises a strip of pressure sensitive adhesive.
  • the frame preferably comprises a plurality of lengths of the extrusion arranged end-to-end.
  • the invention also provides an extruded plastics section for forming a frame around a sheet of plastics material having a front face and a side face surrounding said front face, characterised by a top part for partially overlying the front face of the sheet, the top part having an undersurface which is provided with a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive for securing said section to the sheet, and a side wall which extends substantially perpendicularly from a longitudinal edge of the top part to cover or substantially cover the side face of the sheet.
  • the top part of the extrusion is preferably of hollow section and preferably comprises a planar bottom wall and a profiled top wall.
  • the side wall preferably includes at least one groove which extends longitudinally of the section and provides a dividing line for removal of a portion of said side wall.
  • Said at least one groove is preferably formed in an inside face of said side wall which is opposed to the side face of the sheet in use.
  • the framing section is formed as a plastics extrusion, of pvc or similar material.
  • the frame includes a hollow top part 1 which, although not shown, may contain one or more internal strengthening webs which completely or partially divide the interior of the section into compartments.
  • the top part has a planar bottom wall 2 and an opposed top wall 3 which may be formed with any curved or flat decorative profile.
  • a side wall 4 extends perpendicularly downwards from an edge of the bottom wall 2.
  • the inner face of the side wall 4, which faces towards the bottom wall 2 includes a longitudinally-extending notch or groove 5 forming a line of weakness which divides the side wall into upper and lower regions 6 and 7.
  • the undersurface of the bottom wall 2 carries a strip of double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive 8, one side being adhered to the wall 2 and the other side being protected prior to use by a peelable protective backing strip (not shown).
  • the extruded section can be used to form an edging frame 10 around a plastics sheet 12 such as a sheet of solid acrylic or foamed pvc, which may be engraved or printed for use as a sign or notice.
  • the section is cut to the required lengths which are mitred and butted together at the corners of the frame, as indicated at 14.
  • the sections can then be adhered to the sheet by peeling the backing from the adhesive strip 8 and pressing the adhesive against the front face of the frame.
  • the side wall 4 of the extruded section substantially covers the side edge of the sheet, as indicated in Fig. 1 by the widely spaced pair of dashed lines 21 and 22.
  • the side wall 4 is first reduced in depth by bending and breaking off the bottom section 7 or, preferably, by cutting along the groove 5 with a sharp knife.
  • the modified section is thus suitable for covering the edge of thinner signs, as indicated by the pair of dashed lines 21 and 23.
  • the edging strips can be applied over the top of fixing screws which are countersunk into the front surface of the sign.
  • the sign is therefore less easy to remove, and the fixings are neatly hidden.
