Disclosed is a Friction Fit Canvas Stretcher Bar Framing System with a
combined built in Ball
Slot Canvas Fastening System. It is specifically designed for Artists and for
those who
commercially produce picture frames and ready to hang art that has been done
on canvas or a
similar type of material. Designed for quick easy manual or automated
mechanical mounting.
This unique interlocking friction fit framing and fastening system does not
require any tools to
assemble and it does not require any special skills or tools to properly
stretch and attach canvas
or similar type material onto a frame. Uniform, precision cut, interlocking,
frame sections
consisting of straight and curved sections, each with a protruding male end
and a recessed
female end connect together by aligning a male end over top of a corresponding
sections
female end and then pressing down. The male end slides into the female end to
form a tight
friction fit connection and a perfect 90 degree corner. Frame sections come in
various standard
stretcher bar lengths, widths, depths and profiles and can easily be assembled
to form
rectangular, square, round and oval shaped frames in an array of sizes. Canvas
is evenly
stretched and attached to a frame using a unique built in Ball Slot Fastening
System and 2
rubber splines which are reusable and unlike staples, adhesives and clamps
they are easy to
install and uninstall and they do not cause any damage to the canvas or to the
frame. Frame
sections can easily be assembled and disassembled and canvas can be attached
and detached
for compact shipping and for repeated use.
