Abstract:
A frame assembly for displaying an object is described. In an embodiment, the frame assembly comprises a printable, rigid material forming a rectangular shaped outer frame that defines an area in which the object, such as a photograph, is displayed. The outer frame is made of a rigid, multilayer substrate that has been machined with grooves that allows it to be manipulated to form front and side walls, such that an image can be printed or wrapped around the entire surface. A method of making the frame assembly is also described. The method comprises printing an image on the frame, such as by direct digital or screen printing prior to assembling the parts of the frame.

Claim (Index 26):
A method of making a frame assembly, said method comprising:\n providing a contiguous piece of printable, rigid material having a front surface (f) and a back surface (b) opposite the front surface; forming one side of the frame assembly by machining multiple grooves into the back surface (b), wherein said machining provides:\n a first groove (g 1 ) that permits the areas of the rigid material on each side of the groove (g 1 ) to fold 90\u00b0 relative to each other to create a right angle and forming an outer side edge (e), \n two adjacent grooves (g 2  and g 3 ) located at a distance (d) from groove (g 1 ), wherein grooves g 2  and g 3  permit the contiguous piece of printable rigid material to fold 180\u00b0 such that backside of the printable rigid material on each side of g 2  and g 3  come into contact with each other to form an interior surface (i) of the outer frame assembly; \n repeating the forming steps to produce multiple sides of the frame; and fastening the multiple sides of the frame to produce an outer frame that defines an area in which the object is displayed.
