Embodiment Construction

[0017]Attention is first directed to FIG. 1 wherein the hanger with display assembly of the present invention is generally indicated at 10. Assembly 10 comprises a sheet of plastic material 12, which sheet incorporates a support hook 14. Sheet 12 is mounted to a vertical surface 16 such as a wall or a door (as shown). A frame member 30 is removably mounted on sheet 12 in a manner as will be explained below.

[0018]As best seen in FIGS. 2 and 3, sheet 12 and hook 14 are fabricated from a single piece of transparent, plastic material. The plastic material has high degree of flexibility that will allow the hook to bend (note phantom lines) without breaking. Any transparent material exhibiting these qualities may be utilized to fabricate the sheet if such material is otherwise suitable (costs, availability, non-toxic, etc.) A strip of double-sided adhesive 18 is employed to mount the rear surface of sheet 12 to vertical surface 16. Adhesive strip 18 is of sufficient size to maintain a bon...

Abstract

Support hook(s) incorporating a display adjunct. The hook is fabricated from a flat sheet of material. The material is transparent and is capable of a high degree of flexing without breaking. Double-sided tape is employed to mount the sheet on a flat, vertical surface such as a wall or door. The sheet is sized to neatly press a display against the vertical surface. The display may take the form of a photograph, an advertisement, a message, or the like. The display can be easily changed without causing the double-sided mounting tape to release. The hook is designed to support a load of pre-determined maximum weight. If the pre-determined weight is exceeded, the hook will bend (without breaking) to release the load. A frame is provided to be removably disposed over the wall or door mounted sheet.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention generally relates to supports. More specifically, the present invention is drawn to hook support structure incorporating a display adjunct therewith.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]The use of hooks for supporting objects such as garments, hats, keys, umbrellas, etc. is commonplace. The hooks are conventionally mounted on walls or doors in the home or office. Unfortunately, conventional hooks are usually unsightly and add no “feng shui” to the surrounding area. Furthermore, conventional hooks are usually “permanently” mounted using a screw fastener or the like, which fastener mars the wall or door. The art would certainly welcome a support hook that incorporates a decorative adjunct and that could easily be mounted or un-mounted from a wall or doorway. Thus, a support hanger incorporating a photo display solving the aforementioned problems is desired.[0005]There are many devices in the ...
