Abstract:
A frame apparatus for displaying a flat article and a combined frame apparatus and flat article. In one aspect, the frame apparatus comprises an annular display frame defining a rabbet, a stack positioned in the rabbet, and an annular spacer frame. The rabbet is defined by a floor and a wall, the wall comprising a first engagement portion and a second engagement portion. The annular spacer frame is coupled to the first and second engagement portions of the annular display frame by interaction between a first and second locking member of the annular spacer frame and the first and second engagement portions of the annular display frame. The first and second locking members extend into the first and second engagement portions and apply a compression force to retain a flat article between the transparent front panel and the rear panel.

Claim (Index 12):
A frame apparatus for displaying an article, the frame apparatus comprising:\n an annular display frame having an inner surface defining a display opening, the annular display frame comprising:\n a rabbet defined by a floor and a wall of the annular display frame; and \n a groove in the wall of the rabbet, the groove comprising an entry section and a receiving section; \n a stack positioned in the rabbet; a spacer apparatus comprising:\n a first elongate member having an outer surface, a first locking tab comprising a first section extending from the outer surface and a second section extending from the first section in a non-parallel direction; and \n a second elongate member having an outer surface, a second locking tab comprising a first section extending from the outer surface; \n the spacer apparatus positioned in the rabbet so that: (1) the first locking tab extends into the groove on a first side of a longitudinal centerline of the annular display frame; and (2) the second locking tab extends into the groove on a second side of the longitudinal centerline of the annular display frame, thereby locking the spacer apparatus and the stack in the rabbet.
